I have read and tried all of the different options within the forum and nothing is working! Its so frustrating! A while back i randomly had the first profile missing error and to fix it i simply reinstalled firefox, when that didnt work I went through and completely deleted anything that had firefox or mozilla in all my libraries figuring i could then just reinstall a complete fresh install. But i was way wrong and that definitely didnt help. Ive now tried all of the different methods on this site to fix the profile missing error and it isnt working, which i think is because when it says to go to ~/Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles folder it is completely empty and there is not a profile to be found. So i am unable to start firefox at all so i cant make a new profile that way, or any other method at all! Please please help! Im running OSX yosemite 10.10.3, any help would be greatly appreciated!!

See:

This is usually caused by a problem with the profiles.ini file and the profile marked as Default=1 in this file is no longer present on the hard drive.

  • Windows: %AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\
    C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile>\
  • Linux: ~/.mozilla/firefox/
  • Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Firefox/

You can use one of these to make Firefox create a new default profile or reuse an existing profile:

  • Delete the profiles.ini file to force Firefox to create a new default profile
  • Use the Profile Manager to create a new profile
    Use "Choose Folder" when you create a new profile to select the location of a lost profile and recover this profile

Thank you for your quick reply, but unfortunately I am still in the same position that I was before. All of your solutions were methods that I had already tried many times before asking for help. But regardless i tried again and it still failed. I attached a few photos of what happened immediately after pressing the return key in terminal. Thank you for your help.

You need to locate the profiles.ini file and possibly delete this file.

Did you look here for that file?

  • ~/Library/Application Support/Firefox/

In Mac OS X v10.7 and later, the ~/Library folder is a hidden folder.
