I'm using Firefox nightly 15.0a1 and when I updated the build this morning to the (2012-05-03) none of my bookmarks will open and I can't even open a new tab. Nor can I access my add-ons to try disable them to see if they are causing the problem. The only thing I can load up is the home page and use the interent but I can't do anything else and it's extremely frustrating!

Are you using the Tab Utilities add-on? What you are describing is a known problem with that add-on and the latest nightly builds. The author is working on an update to fix it.

To get Firefox working again you can disable all add-ons. To do that in the help menu select "Restart with add-ons disabled", then in the dialog box that appears select "Disable all add-on" and click "Make changes and restart".

You can then use the add-ons manager to re-enable add-ons. If you have Tab Utilities you can re-enable all other add-ons. If you do not have Tab Utilities you will need to experiment with enabling add-ons to find what one is causing the problem.
