Current version is 57.0.1 https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/update-firefox-latest-version It will fix the issue when update.
If can not after open and closing Firefox a few times get it to update then : Go to the Firefox 3 Bar Menu --> Help ? --> Troubleshooting Information Page and take a look in the Accessibility section if accessibility is set to "true" there. if yes, go to the Firefox 3 Bar Menu --> Options --> Privacy & Security panel and under Permissions check the setting to Prevent Accessibility Services from accessing your browser. Restart Firefox
Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.
thanks for your reply! my firefox is current version. os x is also most current version. my accessibility is False, so not sure how to proceed.
to clarify, firefox works well everywhere else except when i try to open Preferences, it crashes.
