[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 1634321, member: 24160"] You do have Firefox installed? If so, then you are looking in the wrong "Library". You need the Library folder located in your user account which is hidden by default - don't ask why Apple decided they need to hide the users Library but give access to the root Library folder - who knows? When you see the tilde (~), that is the shortcut for [I]/Users/Your user account/[/I]. Open Finder, click on the "Go" button on the menu bar, press the "option" key on the Keyboard - your user account Library folder will then appear in the list. I "think" the profile is kept in the [I]~/Library/Application Support/Firefox[/I] folder. [/QUOTE]
