I recently downloaded the latest version of firefox for my 2013 iMac with OS X 10.8.5. Every time I restart my computer the firefox icon is replaced by a question mark icon. If I click on that, a window pops up that says Verifying "Firefox." Is there a way to fix this problem (make start up of firefox normal)? I have selected Firefox as the default browser.
