+************************************
+Setting up Firefox with Tor on MacOS
+************************************
+
+.. warning::
+  This guide assumes you have completed :ref:`setting up Tor for MacOS<tor-mac>`. Please visit this section first before you proceed as it is required for Firefox to properly work with Tor.
+
+Open Firefox.
+
+Enter ``about:config`` in the URL bar. Accept any warnings that may appear about accessing advanced settings.
+
+Search for ``dom.securecontext.whitelist_onions`` and set the value to ``true``.

+
+Now, open the `Terminal` App on your Mac. You can find it in your list of Applications.
+
+In order to tell Firefox which URLs to use Tor for, you need a `Proxy Auto Config` file. We have one hosted `here <https://registry.start9labs.com/sys/proxy.pac>`_. To get it, enter into the terminal:
+
+.. code-block::
+
+  brew install wget
+
+And then:
+
+.. code-block::
+
+  wget -P /usr/local/etc/tor https://registry.start9labs.com/sys/proxy.pac
+
+Now open your Firefox web browser, and select preferences:

+
+  Select :menuselection:`Settings --> Preferences`
+
+Search for the term “proxy” in the search bar in the upper right, then select the button that says `Settings…`:

+
+This should open a menu that will allow you to configure your proxy settings. Select `Automatic proxy configuration URL` and paste in:
+
+.. code-block::
+
+  file:///usr/local/etc/tor/proxy.pac
+
+Then, check the box labeled `Proxy DNS when using SOCKS v5`:

+
+Click ``OK`` and then restart Firefox for the changes to take effect.
+
+Now you’re all set! You should now be able to navigate to `.onion` URLs in Firefox. This means you can bookmark Cups Messenger, and use your Bitwarden Tor address in the `Bitwarden Firefox Plugin <https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/bitwarden-password-manager/>`_.
