I cannot access gmail via Firefox 3.6.22

Because you have upgraded Firefox and seen to it that the new version will not work well with older versions of OS X (mine is 10.4.11) I cannot access my gmail any longer via Firefox. Gmail no longer supports the older Firefox. You are all in cahoots. This kind of planned obsolescence is disgusting. It forces people to continue upgrading and spending. Capitalists! disgusting!

Nope. I have a mac, running OS X 10.4.11, and I can no longer access gmail if I use the Firefox browser. it just spins it wheels. I can however access it no problem with Camino. Sure, not all options are now available to me, but I frankly dont care. I just want to access my mail. No go with Firefox.

Cannot access gmail on Firefox with Windows 8.1

When I try to access gmail, I get the following message from FireFox:
"Untrusted Connection"
"If you usually connect to this site without problems, this error could mean that someone is trying to impersonate the site, and you shouldn't continue.
This site uses HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) to specify that Firefox only connect to it securely. As a result, it is not possible to add an exception for this certificate.
mail.google.com uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is not trusted because no issuer chain was provided. (Error code: sec_error_unknown_issuer)"
Additionally, Firefox offers no other solution to this problem.
This is a new HP laptop with Windows 8.1. My previous laptop had Windows 7 and before that all of the other Windows versions and I've never had a problem accessing Gmail before using Firefox.
I use gmail literally all day long for my work. Please fix this or tell me how to fix it.

hi, in order to know what's going on we probably need more information about the issuer of the failing certificate. please proceed like this:
enter '''chrome://pippki/content/exceptionDialog.xul''' into the location bar, and in the page that opens, set the server location to "https://mail.google.com" in order to retrieve and view the certificate.
then please report back with the data of the issued by section of the certificate viewer.
thank you!

Cannot access audiogon via firefox or safarai on my mac; please help.

Until this afternoon, using Safari and then google, I never had a problem accessing audiogon. I tried google via firefox and have the same problem. Can you help me restore access? Please know that there is not a problem with audiogon. I contacted a friend who uses audiogon regularly as I do and he has normal access. Thank you in advance!

Hi A Big Panda,
This is in fact very little to go on.
Some info on what you have tried, what you have set up and what router and or modem you have and how you have set them up would help.

Cannot access gmail with firefox only with windows explorer

Just installed Firefox on new computer and when going to google web site I cannot access my gmail. I get the message "not a valid gmail address". I can go to google with windows explorwer and there I can get access to my gmail.

Hi,
You can try to access Gmail without the Gmail labs feature and see if the problem goes away: https://mail.google.com/mail/?labs=0
If it works then perhaps a labs feature is problem.

Also, try accessing after clearing the cache: '''Ctrl''' + '''Shift''' + '''Del''' or '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Clear Recent History''', choose '''Everything''' in '''Time range to clear''' and '''Cache''' in '''Details'''.

How do I access GMail via POP?

Before upgrading to Mountain Lion I had Mail configured to access my GMail account via POP rather then IMAP. I mistakely deleted the GMail POP account configuration. Now, Mail 6 won't allow me to chose how to access GMail - POP or IMAP. Apple removed the Account Type option that was present during account set-up. Is there any way I can create a mail account configuration that uses the POP protocol?
Thanks,
John

IMAP is inferior to POP for a lot of business applications. It's not really correct to say IMAP is better than POP, they are different methods with different feature sets. With IMAP there's no ability to store a message on the server if you download, then it is deleted on a client. This can be a disaster when you have multiple people monitoring the same email, or you are using multiple devices. Once accidental misclick archive filing for example while on your iPhone can cause your desktop not to receive the mail, or not be filtered properly. Many business depend on this for orders, customer service, and general communication. IMAP cannot be trusted, even with myself as a developer. Using IMAP is like relying on interns at Pixar to use Unix commands perfectly and not delete the feature film with a late night brainfart.
When you receive a lot of email, things get overlooked, and IMAP has been the root of more than one catastrophe in my life. The main upside to IMAP is that you can manage the space of email, but this is 2013, and my entire mail archive since 1994 is less than 50gb. I think space doesn't matter much anymore, better to be safe with pop, than sorry. I might get my email 1-5 minutes later having to fetch it instead of being pushed, but that's ok considering the consequences of the alternative. Email is not designed to be an instant thing anyway.
It's annoying gmail defaults to IMAP in Apple mail now, but not in IOS. Makes no sense.

Lately accessing gmail on Firefox has seemed so slow with non-responding messages

Firefox WAS my favorite browser. lately, it seems like I am dragging an anchor when accessing gmail through it. I keep getting annoying Firefox is not responding messages. Also, in several of my many gmail accounts, I get notices that I have been signed out and have to copy whatever messages I am writing, log out, log back in again and then have to paste the message and then continue.
The first problem has gotten so prevalent and a frustrating waste of my time and energy that I am switching back to Internet Explorer. Please do share any recommendations.

Hi Bettertown47,
Sorry to hear you had such poor experiences with 8.0.1. I never had thos issues with it, but I'm sure it was frustrating. You should try 9.0.1 and see if that helps. There have been some significant improvements in speed and performance. If you are interested, just take a look at [[Updating Firefox]] for steps.
Cheers!

How to get rid of username lists in the Gmail window. I access Gmail with Firefox.

It is a small but annoying problem. I, and sometimes friends, use my Gmail account to check their email. In the username window of Gmail, which I access with Firefox 3.6.9, a list of all past users shows up when I click in the window. I cleared Google cookies, and All history, but the list remains! I can hide the list, but not clear it, if I check 'Form and search history'. But the list is alive and well when I uncheck this option! Is there a way to get rid of the list?

I cannot access gmail from firefox 9 despite dealing with cookies & cache. It opens fine in IE8 but not firefox

I have tried all the google mail suggestions, including allowing www.google.com to send cookies but it makes no difference. I had problems with adblock plus blanking out the text in gmail but uninstalling this cured problem but today I can't get in at all.

Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
*Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now"
"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
*Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
Start Firefox in <u>[[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.

I am trying to access my gmail on Firefox, but the browser is not alowing me to connect, but returns an invalid secirity certificate. The dialogue does not give you an option to bypass the blockage and proceed. So I cannnot access my g mail.

I can access my gmail on internet explorer, but firefox is giving the message as shown below. It ought to give an exception option, but it does not. So I cannot access gmail through firefox.

Check the date and time in the clock on your computer: (double) click the clock icon on the Windows Taskbar.

Since I disabled features in the people widget, I cannot access gmail

I was so annoyed at the people widget covering up my emails that I disabled all the features IN it instead of the whole widget (which I have since learned how to do) and now I cannot access gmail with firefox. I can with internet explorer though, but prefer to use firefox.

-> Tap '''ALT''' key or press '''F10''' to show the Menu Bar
-> go to Help Menu -> select '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled'''
Firefox will close then it will open up with just basic Firefox. Now do this:
-> Update ALL your Firefox Plug-ins https://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/
-> go to View Menu -> Toolbars -> unselect All Unwanted/Incompatible Toolbars
-> go to Tools Menu -> Clear Recent History -> '''Time range to clear: select "EVERYTHING"''' -> click Details (small arrow) button -> place Checkmarks on '''Cookies, Cache''' -> click '''Clear Now'''
-> go to Tools Menu -> Options -> General -> in '''Startup''' section click '''Reset to Default''' button
-> go to Tools Menu -> Options -> Content -> place Checkmarks on:
1) Block Pop-up windows 2) Load images automatically 3) Enable JavaScript
-> go to Tools Menu -> Options -> Security -> place Checkmarks on:
1) Warn me when sites try to install add-ons 2) Block reported attack sites 3) Block reported web forgeries 4) Remember Passwords for sites
-> go to Tools Menu -> Options -> Advanced -> Network -> Offline Storage (Cache): click '''Clear Now''' button
-> Click OK on Options window
-> click the Favicon on SearchBar -> click '''Manage Search Engines''' -> select all Unwanted Search Engines and click '''Remove''' -> click OK
-> go to Tools Menu -> Add-ons -> Extensions section -> REMOVE All Unwanted/Suspicious/Incompatible Extensions (Add-ons) -> Restart Firefox
-> go to Tools Menu -> Add-ons -> Appearance section -> REMOVE All Unwanted/Suspicious/Incompatible Themes (Persona) -> Restart Firefox
You can enable your Known & Trustworthy Add-ons and Themes later. Check and tell if its working.

Tough Decision: Gmail Web Interface or Gmail Via Pop Using Mac Mail

Thought I would open a discussion about this since I have been having a tough time making a decision. I love using Gmail's web interface but hate losing the integration with Mac OS. I forward all my email from different providers to my Gmail so I can access all my email from any computer. This is very handy for me.
I have tried using the mail app to access gmail via pop, but one thing I hate is when I reply to an email from a different provider than gmail it will use the gmail reply address. Gmail's web interface will use the account that the email was sent to as the reply address automatically.
I am almost certain that others are in the same quandry as I am. If so, what is your solution?
20" iMac Mac OS X (10.4.7)

You can enter the email addresses for your other providers in Mail and have them show up in a pop-up menu when you compose new mail; then you can select which address to use as the outgoing mail address.
Go to Mail->Preferences->Accounts, and undeer the Account Information, look for the Email Address field (below the Description filed). Enter your other email addresses in there, separated by commas, then close the Preferences and Save the changes.
Now create a new email and the pop-up menu should let you choose which email address will show up on the email.

Hi Guys, I have completely lost access to Gmail and all Google accounts via Firefox - error message "secure connection failed Error code: sec_error_bad_der

I have been a long time Firefox user and this is the first time I am truly baffled. Now if I try to log into gmail or any google account on my main PC I just get an error message as below.
Secure Connection Failed
An error occurred during a connection to accounts.google.com. security library: improperly formatted DER-encoded message. (Error code: sec_error_bad_der)
The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.
Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem.
I have tried reinstalling, clearing cache, clearing cookies, and just about every other thing I can think of but to no avail. I can access through IE and also via firefox on my other PCs but no joy on my main PC. Please help as this one is stumping me.
Many thanks for your help.
