Firefox not working with gmail

i tried to load gmail, but the standard view does not load, only the basic html version.
whereas it loads perfectly internet explorer 9 or firefox v4.
tried reinstalling, clearing cookies etc.. nothing changed.
even tried "network.http.spdy.enabled" to false as given on http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/928888#answer-339203 but nothing happened.
got error:
with gmail-
Some important features may not work in this version of your browser, so you have been redirected to the Basic HTML version. Upgrade to a modern browser, such as Google Chrome.
with blogger-
Your browser is no longer supported by Blogger. Some parts of Blogger will not work and you may experience problems.
If you are having problems, try Google Chrome. | Dismiss
has gmail stopped supporting firefox new versions? i dont want to switch to chrome? wat can i do?
am using windows xp sp3

This is silly (and stupid). Why should I have to go to IE anything? Firefox worked fine with gmail until I went to this new version (16), I went to the beta version and gmail still did not work. I thought you guys were supposed to be unbiased? I should be able to use one program for my mail and my internet and not lose any of my cookies or services. I went to you guys because I was able to use all the services without any problems, now need two services so I can use my mail (no, I am not changing mail services...I like gmail and have a very set and established email address. It would cause a lot of problems trying to get my friends to memorize a new one...we like the one I have now).
It should not be THAT DIFFICULT to allow access to gmail. Work with each other, you will be amazed at what you can accomplish. Thank you, NukeGeek

Mail v4.4 not working with Gmail

Hey Guys,
My Mail version does not seem to be working with Gmail. This issue seems to pop up from time to time after browsing the forums.
I've tried going on gmail's website and making sure my mail app is configured correctly, and I've also re-installed my gmail account into the mail program just to be sure all is well.
Can anyone offer any assistance? This is uber-frustrating.......

Update......Somehow Mail sent 1/46 pending messages.....weird.

Apple Mail not working with Gmail IMAP

This is a slight re-working of a post of 27 March as I am being driven nuts having to use web mail.
I have used Mail with gMail for years. Last week I was abroad and I could only use the web interface as when I logged in from my MacBook via Mail the message pane was fine (and up to date though it did not open by default as usual) but if I opened any message all I got was 'Loading' followed by the spinning beach ball. I tried this for several days and always got the same result and assumed it was an (atypical) result of being abroad.
When I got home I found I had exactly the same problem on my iMac which was fine before I left home and as with my MB I have to force quit to get out of Mail.
I then when out and after a restart (not the first since the problem) that my MB was OK - but only briefly. My iMac is still stuffed as far as Mail is concerned.
Mail itself does not seem completely broken, for instance I can look at Previous recipients, I can send from Mail and it arrives back (but then I can’t open it). I can drag messages to the Bin, but they don’t seem to stay there. Oddly I have sent a lot of mail from the gMail interface today, but none of them show up in Apple Mail, tho earlier days do.
I do have a lot of messages in sent mail, nearly 6,000, and while I can understand it progressively slowing things down I don’t see that it would cause both machines to fail simultaneously and anyway I don’t want to delete them.
Any ideas? There are no error messages, Connection Doctor shows me as logged in, and I have not found anything via a Google search or in their discussions.
Cheers, Colin

Opps, the * was an OCR error from the screen dump I did not notice.
plus.net is my ISP, but I don't use them for mail normally but I suspect once-upon-a-time I may have had a problem connecting with gMail's SMTP server, so set that up.
I'm actually running Mail 3 (I think the latest version for Leopard, incidentally gmail help is only up to v 2).
Rather than delete the other servers I have set it to only use smtp.gmail, but it still hangs on opening a message pane. Oddly even tho I get the beech ball I can still open prefs.
I can't help feeling the problem is with Mail itself (tho why on two machines at once is beyond me) as the normal behaviour is always to open with the Message pane, but it opens without a window; almost as soon as I open the Message pane it updates with gmail and deletes any message I have moved on the web side. So, only partly broken, but broken enough to be useless!
Cheers, Colin

Maverick's Mail does not work with Gmail ! it works better with iOS 7

For info.
I do know how it's complex to program and more for an OS System.
Maverick's Mail DOES NOT work proprely with Gmail boxes ? Gmail incoming or outcoming messages are correctly notified on my iPhone 5s with iOS 7. But not on my Macbook Pro retina (end 2012) with Mavericks. One update was suppose to solve the trouble.
Hope you'll solve the problem as soon as possible. Bur not during the nights. But during your daytimes' work !
Wish you nice end of year's days.
And please get my best wishes for 2014. Hope you'll get a lot of these nice little moments of happiness.
Best regards.
Pascal

Have you checked your incoming and outgoing mail server settings?
If you are using IMAP, it should look something like the following:
Incoming Mail (IMAP) Server - Requires SSL
imap.gmail.com
Port: 993
Requires SSL:Yes
Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - Requires TLS
smtp.gmail.com
Port: 465 or 587
Requires SSL: Yes
Requires authentication: Yes
Use same settings as incoming mail server
If you are using POP3, it should look something like the following:
Incoming mail server type: POP3
Incoming mail (POP3 or IMAP) server: pop.gmail.com. Google Apps users, enter the server name provided, don't add your domain name in these steps.
Port: 995
Outgoing e-mail server (SMTP) name: smtp.gmail.com
Port: 465
Outgoing server requires authentication: enabled

E75 & Nokia Messaging not working with Gmail prope...

Hi there,
I'm having problems in getting my new E75 to function with Gmail (I'm using Gmail via IMAP, custom domain and Google Apps) and I'm, therefore, here in order to search some help from more tech-savvy users. The most annoying problem I'm having at the moment is that E75 creates duplicate messages in "sent mail" -folder in Gmail when sending mail from it. I would also be delighted if I could delete messages using my phone so that msges would be moved to Gmail's trash folder instead of "All Mail" -folde. Any advice in getting these functionalities? Thank You!
All in all, I would like to be able to configure E75 mail client to function like a "normal" IMAP client.

Maddmaxx is correct, check this article for more information: http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=78755
A workaround to delete emails from Gmail is to go into Google Labs, enable Advanced IMAP Controls, go to Forwarding and POP/IMAP and switch When a message is expunged from the last visible IMAP folder: to either Move the message to the Trash or Immediately delete the message forever depending on your preference.
We're working on this.

Why is mail not working with gmail?

And not for nothin', it doesn't seem to be working at all as it used to.
Nearly every morning I come down and see the message that Mail has crashed... again.
I am beginning to really, really regret installing Mavericks and wish I could go back... but now important documents have been upgraded to the new Pages and Keynote so I'm stuck.
So... I'm discovering that my iPad and my MacAir are the only machines that will load my gmail. My iPhone won't and my iMac won't.
I have no confidence that things are synching across all Apple products.
I believe I have done all the updates.
This is not the standard we have relied on in the past (and I've been an Apple person since the Apple II).
Please help us...
I probably wouldn't even be using Gmail if Apple had not discontinued iDisk forcing me to go somewhere else for cloud storage. Still mourning that move.
RO

Sorry -- the fact is that there doesn't seem to be any logic to what is happening -- or rather not happening.
There are two issues and I don't know if they are related or not.
GMAIL and MAIL:
Works on my MacAir but NOT on my iMac. Both have OSX 10.9 with most recent updates.
Works on my iPad with exactly the same account configuration as my iPhone... where it doesn't work.
MAIL in general on my iMac:
From day one with Mavericks, Mail refuses to remember my iCloud login information.
It remembers my university's email config (@rwu.edu)
Nothing shows up under Gmail at all but it doesn't give me the Lightning symbol to tell me there's a problem.
Just about every morning I come back to my computer and there's an application crashed dialog box that tells me Mail unexpectedly quit and do I want to REOPEN. And when I do, I have to log in for my iCloud Mail to show up.
I assume that crash reports are automatically going to Apple... I don't get the option to send it to you.
Thanks in advance.
Addendum: I hesitate to delete the Gmail account from anywhere in case the result is that I will lose my ability to read Gmail on the two appliances where it is all working. That, and the fact that it is the end of the semester and I have 100 students emailing me everyday about last minute things and final exams. NOT the time to delete ANYTHING. But I might try next week...

Mac mail not working with gmail 2 step verification in yosemite

Every couple of days my 2 step verification seems to drop off the mac mail (and calendar) radar. Ive been using mac mail with 2 step verification (gmail account) for about 8 months, no problems. About 1 month ago my mac started asking for my gmail password. I have revoked and regenerated my password about 6 times recently to try to overcome this issue. The new password works for a couple of days and then mail and calendar start asking from my password again.

Not quite a reply, but I'm not sure how best to add to my first comment.
One of the issues with this (and there are multiple) is that I can't use handoff to work on something on my mac, started on my ipad, if it is working through my gmail account eg notes, calendar, email.
This bug is totally crippling the productivity and flexibility that came with ios8/yosemite developments.

Firefox Not Working With VPN

Since a few days ago, both Firefox and Firefox Beta have not been loading any website, with the "Server Not Found" error. It's weird because everything was fine before, but now it won't load with VPN activated (but works perfectly fine without it).
Every other browser I've tried works perfectly fine though (Chrome stable and beta, Opera, & Dolphin Browser).
I'm on a Nexus 7 (2012) running KitKat and using the TunnelBear VPN service through a US VPN.

Hello,
Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
'''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
#*'''Windows:'''
#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
#Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
Please report back to see if this helped you!
Thank you.

Firefox not working with Xfinity email

I had been using a version of Firefox 3 (3.3, I think). One day this week, I was suddenly not able to go beyond my email page on my Comcast/Xfinity webpage. I got the Preview page only, but no farther. Using IE, I have no problem. I added nothing from one day to the next onto my computer. There was a Microsoft security fix that automatically restarted my computer. That's it.
I tried loading Firefox 5, but got no different result.

I found that McAfee was blocking Firefox. Before I upgraded to Yosemite I was required to upgrade McAfee by sys admin. The issue more than likely started then but I did not open Firefox before upgrading from 10.8 to Yosemite.
In McAfee Endpoint Protection for Mac Preferences I selected Application Protection. In the window listing "Application Names" there were none. I hit the "+" button, then the search icon, and added Firefox from the Applications folder. Hit "ok". Closed the windows and quite McAfee. Restarted and after having to open Firefox in SAFE MODE everything appears to be working as it did before I upgraded to Yosemite. I can get the DAU again as it is the only web browser I can load on Mac that is compatible with this website that I am required to use.... not currently running VMware.
I have admin rights to my computer but McAfee is configured and installed per instructions by my company admin. Hopefully they will allow me to keep this configuration change...

Firefox not working with telstra bigpond webmail (australia)

stopped working a couple of weeks ago. I can access the account with internet explorer but not firefox. have installed all updates to browser.

Yes you can install Chrome and use it for that one website. As far as Chrome "taking over" other functions on your PC, just don't let it set itself as the "default browser" if you are asked during the installation routine. Beyond that I doubt if you will have a problem.

Firefox not working with hotmail

Today, all of the sudden I could not see emails that I had sent in hotmail or google. I could see the attachments, but only the first few lines of the email. I could however see the emails in other browsers. I was freaking out that I was send blank emails to employers.

I don't know if this is an issue with Hotmail having made some changes on their side.
You can try to clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
*Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
*Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Why Firefox not working with many Youtube videos?

I use Firefox 13.0.1 on a Mac OS X 10.6.8. Beginning from August, many of the Youtube videos cannot be played, with the error message:
" The Adobe Flash Player is required for video playback. Get the latest Flash Player"
I clicked the clickable "Get the latest Flash Player" and installed it. But the same error message continues to show up. I repeated the process 3 times, the problem remains.
The Safari on my machine, however, has never had the above problem.
Could you let me know how to make these Youtube videos play with Firefox?
Thank you!

You could try uninstalling Flash completely and go directly to the Adobe website and download it. If that doesn't work I would uninstall Firefox and re-install it and see if the problem continues.
All the best,
Knownware

Mail does not work with gmail accounts anymore

Since yesterday or so, my google mail accounts don't connect anymore. All of them. All other accounts are still working.
- Connection doctor tells me the standard "couldn't connect, check if its really port 993 blah" thing.
- I'm on 10.9.5
- I tried remove one of the accounts under Internet Accounts and "re install" it, which worked partially: Internet Accounts accepted the google password, and added the account. I ticket Emails. It reappeared in Mail, but still with connection issues (and now no emails what-so-ever associated with that account).
What can I do next?

Have you checked your incoming and outgoing mail server settings?

Firefox not working with Wordpress blog--I cannot insert hyperlinks or pre-schedule blog posts

Since the last (involuntary) update of Firefox, Wordpress is full of snags, namely, I have been unable to hyperlink or preschedule posts--Nothing happens when I try to click either. When I close Firefox and switch to Safari, there's no problem, which leads me to believe the problem is within Firefox, which updated itself on my machine a few days ago.

TruthMaker wrote:
it seems to happen randomly
Did you wait long enough for the 'archive' page to fully load before you clicked on a link ?
If not, then you may have clicked on an incompletely loaded url, resulting in the "not found" MobileMe page. (yes, indeed it's about fractions of a second, that is why it seems to happen randomly)
If this happened in Safari, clear the cache and wait for the page to fully load. Does that help ?
Ps : I can navigate from your archive to the corresponding entry ( tried 4 random links)
For other browsers, if you wait long enough for the page to fully load and then do a "reload page" and again wait long enough ... does that help ?
When you hoover over the links and do get a $links$ move over to the next one, go back... now do you see the correct link ? Not always, but most of the time it's a blog entry with a very long filename.

Does Firefox not work with windows8

I had no problems with Firefox while using windows 7, but now have 8 and Firefox is continually being non responsive.

Some problems occurs when your Internet security program was set
to trust the previous version of Firefox, but no longer recognizes your
updated version as trusted. Now how to fix the problem: To allow
Firefox to connect to the Internet again;
* Make sure your Internet security software is up-to-date (i.e. you are running the latest version).
* Remove Firefox from your program's list of trusted or recognized programs. For detailed instructions, see
