When El Capitain came out Firefox started crashing MANY times a day every day no matter what webpage I was on. After a week or so ( hoping firefox or apple would fix something ) I restored back to Yosemite... - - and all was well in the world. .. I figured by now this would of been fixed.. SO yesterday I upgraded AGAIN to El Capitain. .. and Firefox STILL Freaken Crashes over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over. . I've seen all the other complaints.. So I know it's not in my head. I've tried some of the solutions but no help. I didn't figure out the Changing Mac Fonts thing.. I'd rather use a Mozilla CREATED program to Correctly DO THAT FOR ME ( instead of my changing something and my Living Room WALL Crashes In On Me ) .. Can yall fine a fix for this ??? !! ?? !!
