Firefox crashing often and at random times (mac)
I have refreshed firefox, my computer software is up to date, my plug-ins are up to date, and firefox itself is up to date.
Firefox has been crashing for me for several months, I have also noticed that it freezes up often too and I usually end up having to force quit.

Also, you are running a pretty old version of Mac OS, you may want to consider updating to Mac 10.11 is possible. It's free, and as long as your computer is supported will be a good upgrade.

These crashes appear to be because of your graphics software.
I'd suggest one of two things:
- Better option. If possible, update to Mac 10.11 (http://www.apple.com/osx/how-to-upgrade/). this will give you a more modern device driver, and most likely fix the issue in Firefox, as well as give you better security and performance
- Second choice. Try disabling Hardware Acceleration in Firefox, Turning off hardware acceleration
