I am on a MacBook Air using the current software. I get the "Gah. Your tab just crashed." message on opening Firefox and every new tab thereafter. I am not a techy and don't understand how to fix the problem. I have uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it twice. The last time I installed it without adding any browsing history, etc. I have scanned my computer using clean my Mac to no avail.

I would appreciate it if someone could explain, in simple terms with clear step by step directions, how to fix the issue.

Thanks in advance for your time and assistance.

I already had the current version but I downloaded it again to no avail. However, if I disabled My Speed the problem was resolved. I guess I will live with this solution. Thanks for your help.

Most of the crash reports are listed as unreported. However these 3 are shown as reported.

Hi

Thank you for providing those reports.

I have had a look into them and the issue seems to be the MySpeed software that you may have installed.

I recommend making sure that is up to date as I understand that the developers have released a an update that should resolve that issue. You can read more about this here.
