Just recently, I installed or tried to install 54 extenions from mozilla site. 
There's a folder called extentions in the Firefox folder.  After this folder was
placed in firefox, it began to crash on opening or never engaged in fully
opening.I don't know which extention  caused the problem.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.click on the icon in the dock; it bounced, waited for it to open
2. Once open, it would either fail to generate a page or crash.
3. talk back would come on and a message saying firefox unexpected failed.

Actual Results:  
I kept trying 5-6 times and even reinstalled the lastest version of firefox.

Expected Results:  
It should've opened regardless of the extentions that were installed.

Well, it was on my desktop top.  It crashed whether I opened it from the dock or
tried from the applications folder; it performed the same way-failed to open
page, then crashed.
Have you tried installing only a couple of extentions at a time? 54 extentions
at once seems like it could cause some problems...

What version of Firefox where you using? Bug 292803 reported issues with
installing plug-ins (I think he was talking about extentions...)
One last thing... It might be nice to know how to make new profile...

Open the terminal and type something like
`Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox-bin -p`

(type that if Firefox is in your Applications folder)
