hello mmmtaz,

while i do not use a mac, ms windows has a feature to set default programs, like what should be the default email program, default word processing program, etc..

so it sounds like your system is not setting the firefox browser as your default browser when opening url links.

so check around your mac o.s. to set your default programs.

additionally, you can google on "how to set your default browser to firefox in mac os".
