Can't attach documents to my email using Firefox - but I can from Chrome

This problem just started today. I use gmail for my email messages. When I tried to attach a document to my email, nothing happened and I was not able to add the attachment. When I switched to Chrome, I was able to add the attachment to my email.
Last night I had no problem adding attachments when I used Firefox. Today I can't.
Any suggestions?

I want to open my email using firefox, but since installing Google Chrome, all email links are opened with it, and I don't have access to my firefox tool bars to email a page, etc.

All email are opened by Google Chrome since I installed it. I want to use Firefox with its toolbars for emailing pages, etc., and there seems to be no easy way to email a page using Chrome.
I tried uninstalling Chrome, but then could not open any email.

Make sure your Firefox set as default browser? See:

I cannot access my sky emails using firefox, but I can do with internet explorer

With sky, I put in my username and password and then sign in, I get the message: Problem loading page. The connection was reset
The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.
The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
moments.
If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.
If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web. When I use internet explorer using the same information, I receive my emails

Hello there.
Have you tried deleting your emails cookies (see [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Deleting+cookies this] for help) and [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+to+clear+the+cache clearing your cache]? That will probably help.

I have a new Windows7 computer, transfered my files and settings from WinXP, I can use the web and receive emails using Firefox but cannot open emails. Can you help?

I just can't open my emails that I get from msn. My yahoo and gmail messages work and I can open them fine but I can't open my msn mail with this computer.

Most likely you have Office 2004 which are PPC-only applications and will not work in Lion. Upgrade to Office 2011. Other alternatives are:
Apple's iWork suite (Pages, Numbers, and Keynote.)
Open Office (Office 2007-like suite compatible with OS X.)
NeoOffice (similar to Open Office.)
LibreOffice (a new direction for the Open Office suite.)

I am having problems attaching files to my email using the latest Firefox 13.0.1, Comcast is my internet provider, but I did not have problem with Safari.

Why am I having problems attaching files to my email using Firefox 13.0.1.?
I am using a MAC, OS 10.6.8, and have Comcast as my internet provider. I noticed after I upgraded to Firefox 13.0.1 that I am having problems attaching files to my email. I do not experience the same problem with Safari, but I prefer to use Firefox, as all of my bookmarks and passwords are saved there. I just like the way Firefox works better than Safari.
I am a free-lance graphic designer and rely on my internet connection to my customers. I need this resolved ASAP!

Could you start by resetting the zoom level on the page? To do that, you can either:
* Press Ctrl+0 (that's a zero) on the keyboard
* View menu > Zoom > Reset
You also can use zoom to increase/decrease the size from there. This article describes the various mouse, keyboard, and menu methods: [[Font size and zoom - increase the size of web pages]].
Any luck?

You can call Apple with the Serial# handy, & possibly get the original Install Discs cheap, or...
Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
General requirements
   * Mac computer with an Intel processor
    * 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least, more if you can afford it)
    * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
    * DVD drive for installation
    * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
    * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.

Perhaps if you change your setting here:
orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Options > Applications tab
In the search box, type '''power''' and then pause until the list is filtered. If you have these, try changing the action to "Always Ask":
Microsoft PowerPoint Presentation 
Microsoft PowerPoint Slide Show
It's possible that if you don't have Microsoft Office installed, you might not have those listed.

I recently saved a draft email using mail, but now whenever I try to reopen it, it says loading but will not load. All my other drafts load fine except for this one. Is there a way to access the draft outside of mail?

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems. 
See '''Creating a profile''':
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem

I can't seem to use the 'Check seats' link on Delta when I use Firefox but Safari works fine. I get the message 'not available at this time' when using Firefox but when I go to Safari it works fine.

That issue can be caused by corrupted cookies.

I can't seem to copy & paste while I am using Firefox; but I can with Internet Explorer. What am I doing wrong? I guess I just don't understand how to do it.

I am working in Ancestry.com. If I am in Internet Explorer, I can copy a picture & then paste it in my pictures, on my computer. If I am using Firefox, I don't understand which things to do to copy & then paste a picture, like I can in Internet Explorer. I prefer to use Firefox, but need to be able to use this copy & paste feature, often. I just downloaded Firefox, & started using it, again, yesterday. I just got a new computer in June.

When you run out of keyboard short cuts, enter the addtional names in the name field in the keyword editor. That will start a new Keyword Collection. You can apply the addtional keywords to multiple cllips on the event browser. Or you can drag the clips into the Collection in the Event Library.

Can you and will you fix the "plug-in container" using so much memeory problem? I like using firefox, but if this keeps going on I am going to have to start using something like Chrome or going back to I/E.

I use the latest version of Firefox, I run Windows XP on an older computer and the last two updates have included a "plug-in container" that use way too much memory when running a Flash based app. Can and will you be fixing this soon, I have "Googled" the problem and it seems pretty rampant, there are a lot of people having the problem and some who have left Firefox for Chrome, I enjoy using Firefox but if the problem continues I will have to find something else myself.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== After downloading the last two versions of Firefox.
