Seems that v 33.0.1 has lost its ability to "restart".

Well as you can see whenever FF needs a restart, by clicking an updated add-on or using "restartless restart" add-on it closes down and won't restart. If after waiting you try to reload FF the system says FF is running you must close FF. Only way to do this is to use Cont + Alt + Del keys and delete the FF app in task mgr. Been a long time (very) since the last time it did this. Please note that I had to manually down this Ver (33.0.1) and the dialog box (2nd. below) says Ver 33.0 .

You appear to ave a lot of extensions installed.

Did you check for possible issues caused by those extensions?

If it works in Safe Mode and in normal mode with all extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) disabled then try to find which extension is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.

Close and restart Firefox after each change via "Firefox > Exit" (Windows: Firefox/File > Exit; Mac: Firefox > Quit Firefox; Linux: Firefox/File > Quit)

Note that you can also restart Firefox via the restart command in the Developer toolbar (Firefox/Tools > Web Developer; Shift+F2).
