After updating to 3.6.7, Firefox will not start on my Mac. Happened also with the last update. Is anyone else having this problem? I'm running updated OX 10.6.4 on an i7.

Last time (a few weeks ago) I had to uninstall firefox and reinstall it. Today I moved the last version to the trash and reinstalled the new version, but it still won't work. I obviously can't do this every time there is a new update. When I click on firefox, the icon bounces in the dock (like it's trying to open), and then nothing happens.

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

I updated to 3.6.7 today

I have exactly the same problem. I've tried deleted all the contents of the application and install it again. But it still doesn't work.

I had the same problem after Firefox updated. I had to disable all my add-ons in safe mode in order to get the program to open again.

I tried to disable everything in safe mode but it still won't open. I really need it because I have some sites I need to work with that don't support Safari.

I have the same problem and can't even get mine to open in Safe Mode.

Isn't it odd that Mozilla does not have a fix for this? I've had to give up Firefox and go to Safari, as I'm tired of fighting it. Bummer...

Same issue - however firefox will open but I can not click on only of my tool bar shortcuts - the writing on the google age is greyed out so I can not click on anything. Still no resolution? I have deleted the folders and re-installed - it will open and then locks and it will not work????
