I have a Mac mini with 10.8.4 installed. I installed firefox 21.0. I'm trying to locate the registry entry (plist) file which contains the version of firefox installed. This file needs to be used programatically.

For programmatical access to the Firefox version see How to detect Firefox browser version?

You can access it manually from about:config (but, I am pretty sure, not from the sysytem registry):
