Using Firefox 7.0.1 on a MacBook Pro with OS 10.6.8 and NO OTHER applications running, I am consistently getting the message that Your Mac OS X startup disk has no mor space for application memory. It is happening whenever I try to do something using Firefox or use any application now. I have deleted six applications in the app folder and that has made no difference. I see a note about iPhoto plugin 6. I have iPhoto 9 app.
