netstat will tell you what's listening on that port. Open a terminal (press Ctrl+Alt+T), and run:
sudo netstat -plnt | fgrep 9050
It will tell you which program is using that port. For example, on my system, it shows:
tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:9050 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 1198/tor
At the end, it says that the program listening on that port is tor.

You may have installed bothtor-browserand a second Tor package. Trysudo service tor stop, and see if Tor browser works after that.
