    Hey,
     
    so I have downloaded Tor, and was trying to open it. When I do I get a message saying 'a copy of firefox is already open. Only one copy of firefox can be open at a time'
     
    I deleted mozilla firefox off my mac, but I still get the same error message.
     
    Anyone have any tips? Or maybe even the solution? :3
     
    Help is appreciated, peace out!

    I'm not too savvy with Macs, but try to kill all of the Firefox processes, reboot, locate where you saved the Tor Browser Bundle, copy a shortcut onto your desktop, and attempt to execute from there.

    I already deleted it though, can there still be firefox processes running?

    Download a fresh copy to your desktop, then close and kill all processes of firefox, try to open it.

    When I doubleclick to open it, it looks like it opens two tor browsers. Could that be the problem?
     
    @[member="-Martyr"] Thanks for the try :3
