This has been an issue for me for months. Whenever I try to open a dialog box for attaching a document to an e-mail or upload photos to Facebook. I just refreshed Firefox and now I can drag/drop attachments into gmail, but when I click the attach icon Firefox crashes. Help is appreciated.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox. A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh).

Is the problem still there?

While still in Safe Mode,

Safe mode does not solve my problem. Here are the crash reports:

The reports don't show much.

I've called for more help.

Start your Computer in safe mode with networking. Then start Firefox. Try Safe websites. Is the problem still there?
