 Replying to [comment:6 mwolfe]:
 > I downloaded the latest alpha version 7.0a4 and 'installed' it by
 dragging it into my Applications folder. I opened Guardian Cartoon, then
 clicked on one cartoon, and Torbrowser hung (see torhang picture, 'Not
 responding' and this lasted one hour before I killed the process).

 That might be bad luck on your side. I suspect you actually hit a NoScript
 bug (#22362).

 > I tried to go back to my old Tor version, but I only get an error 'Tor
 could not start.'

 Hm. What did you do? Just installing Tor Browser 6.5.2 over the alpha in
 your /Applications directory? If you still experience that problem could
 you give us some feedback on what is going on on your system by following
 comment:11:ticket:20300?

 > So I am accessing trac.torproject.org with 7.0a4, which has no trouble
 with the torproject site.

 That's expected. So, we'll work on finishing up Tor Browser 7.0 which will
 have a fix for #22362. Then you can test whether that one is indeed still
 crashing. And if so I'll provide you with a debug build + instructions for
 how do use it.
