<p>A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

This will remove all saved form data, so you may want to rename formhistory.sqlite to formhistory.sqlite.sav or move the file to another folder in case you need to recover some saved data.

You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the <a href="/en-US/kb/new?title=Safe+mode" class="new" title="Page does not exist." rel="nofollow">Safe mode</a> start window to disable all extensions.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File &gt; Exit" (Mac: "Firefox &gt; Quit"; Linux: "File &gt; Quit")
