Firefox application
My apple computer performed an uninitiated re-boot and now the Firefox icon in the task bar does not show Firefox as running, but when I click on the icon it tells me that Firefox is open and it cannot open another window. How to I shut Firefox down and re-start it?

If you're experiencing issues with Firefox on your Apple computer, you can follow these steps to shut it down and restart it:
Force Quit Firefox:
- Press Command + Option + Esc to open the "Force Quit Applications" window.
- Select "Firefox" from the list.
- Click "Force Quit."
Verify Firefox is Closed:
- After force quitting, make sure Firefox is completely closed. You can check by looking for the absence of the Firefox icon in the Dock.
Restart Firefox:
- Open Firefox as you normally would.
If the issue persists, you can also try these additional steps:
Check Activity Monitor:
- Open "Activity Monitor" from the "Utilities" folder in the "Applications" folder.
- Look for any Firefox processes in the list.
- If you find any, select them and click the "X" button in the top-left corner to force quit.
Restart Your Computer:
- Sometimes, a simple restart of your computer can resolve unexpected issues.
Safe Mode (Optional):
- You can try starting Firefox in Safe Mode to see if any add-ons or custom settings are causing the problem. To do this, hold down the Option key while starting Firefox, and then select "Start in Safe Mode."
