Is there still a profile folder present in /Users/<user>/Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles/<profile>/ ?

Be aware that in Lion the $HOME/Library is now a hidden folder.

Open Finder and use one of these:

  • Go > Go To Folder (Shift-Command-G) and in the dialog type: ~/Library
  • Open the "Go" menu and hold down the Option key to make the Library appear
