I was wondering the other day if it's possible to create multiple users for Firefox within the same user account on a Mac. Of course after a little research I found someone who had a tutorial but I thought instead of just linking to him I would try and show you maybe a little bit better than him. Okay here we go.

 Step #1 Create New Profile

 In order to create a new profile you have to use the terminal to launch the Profile Manager. You can't access the Profile Manager menu any other way. So you will need to open Terminal to do this. You can either type the word "Terminal" into spotlight or go and get it into the application folder under utilities. Here is the Path.

Applications << Utilities < < Terminal

Once it opens type copy and paste this in the terminal

/Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox-bin --profilemanager


then hit enter.

After you do that the profile manager will pop-up. This is where you add your new profile. When you create your new profile don’t put a space in it because it seems to mess things up later. The profile name is case sensitive so make sure you remember exactly what you called it capitals and all. The great thing about having multiple profiles is that it allows more than one person to have settings on the same computer. Or you could have one profile that has all the Internet plug-ins and toolbars and one that does not.

When you’re done with that click exit and it should close the window. Here’s the deal, you could stop here which allows you to launch Firefox and just choos
