Gmail sign in problems when using Firefox in Windows 8

I did not quite understand in what circumstances this is not the case, but several times when I boot my computer Windows 8, start Firefox (in mode 'desktop', 'metro', if that makes a difference (and go to http://gmail.com, I can't connect to my gmail account.)) After you enter the user name and password, the sign in simply 'hangs' or freezes. There is a sign in the progress bar that normally disappears in a blink of the eye, but instead it just stays there, empty and the sign in process is never finished. Clear the cache and cookies solves this problem, but it's annoying to have to do it every time I start my computer. If anyone has had this problem and is at - it a known solution?

Please check if you are able to start Firefox in a new profile.

If you have installed security software (antivirus, firewall), you can try to completely re-trust Firefox + its processes/files in all areas/modules configuration. Please check this

  • Should there be two active instances of Adobe Flash player when using Firefox for windows?

    Firefox (35.0.1) used my resources to i7 CPU like crazy lately, slow down the loading of the page, scroll, etc. I am running windows 8.1. When I went to Task Manager to see what was causing the slowdown, Firefox took 44.8% of my CPU, and I noticed that there two instances of Adobe Flash active at the same time when I'm on enough image/video heavy pages like Salon.com. These two took about 5-10% of CPU. Then came in the container for Firefox which was an increase of 2.4%. Is this normal?

    IF you have more than one plugin flash on a Web page, this is normal.

  • Distortions of the screen when using Firefox on Android

    Hi, a recurring problem - when using Firefox on my Android Web site, are often distorted. If I try to zoom before to increase the size of police or image during playback, the screen breaks and distorts, with different sections of text and images disappear (black sections of the screen appear) or overlapping, often in a different font sizes. The Web site displayed on the screen as "jumps around." The same thing happens if I try to select text for copy - it is impossible to select all or selection is distorted. I have not had this problem before and noticed only recently. Almost impossible to use the browser now! What is the result of an automatic update of the software? Help, please! Thank you.

    Please try to update to Firefox 38.

  • Strange glitch Visual on the taskbar when using Firefox

    Hello

    I feel a strange glitch Visual on the taskbar when using firefox.

    Please take a look at this short video because it shows the problem, it's almost impossible to show in pictures.

    https://DL.dropboxusercontent.com/u/12595174/VIDEO0016.3gp

    I use firefox on Windows 7 Pro 64 bit v36.0.1. Video card is an ASUS R9 280 X using the latest drivers from AMD 14.12 Catalyst Omega Software.

    Motherboard is an ASUS M5A88 with 16 GB of ram and a processor of 6300 FX.

    It is a new construction that I have implemented in the last 24 hours, and this behavior was not present on the system using the same version of windows, firefox and even map chart and drivers. But on another card mother and CPU. Previous Board of Directors has been
    M4A79XTD EVO with a Phenom II X 4 955BE.

    The glitching does not occur when it is on the desktop and firefox is closed. It will not occur when you use IE - 64 nor does it when I am using the steam software or any Explorer windows/opening files.

    All the motherboard drivers are installed correctly, the integrated graphics card is disabled in the BIOS. I disabled the settings of firefox for hardware acceleration, smooth scrolling and text... to see if it was the question. It wasn't.

    I'd appreciate any help to solve this... Really, I don't want to use a different browser but it's bad enough and quite distracting to really annoy me, and I don't see any alternative.

    Thank you very much.

    Hi jscher2000

    I was about to post a reply, because a friend suggested that maybe that's a rendering of issue rather than a firefox one video card even if it's strange how it affected firefox only. I didn't have a chance to test it on Chrome as it is a new construction and I don't want to install the software, I do not use.

    I went to the Manager of catalyst and had a glance to the settings. I changed something, but no help... I then started to make a simple change and test until I found that the activation "gpu up-scaling" in the properties of digital flat screens has solved the problem.

    I am now free twinkle

    Thanks for your quick response however.

  • Outlook has started to get a connection not approved when using firefox

    Outlook started having no reliable connection error when using firefox. Not sure why it started, but all the few minutes that it times out and I have to re - open outlook from google. He does not receive this error on IE or firefox android. I use win 7. I talked with microsoft and they say it's a problem of firefox not outlook.

    I tried the things:
    -Updated firefox
    -Updated antivirus
    -antivirus scans
    -disable the anti-virus
    -from firefox in safe mode.
    -clear all the cache and history
    -Disable all add-ons
    -system restore
    -past by mistake "untrusted connection" on the help of mozilla (does not solve it. There is no option to allow the certificate)
    -search on the net for a similar problem (found nothing)

    So far, it has been like this for a week and its starting to piss me off as it happened out of the blue.

    I solved the problem for someone else who has the same problem.

  • Using Firefox on Windows 10 with Google as my home page.

    Using Firefox on Windows 10 with Google as my home page. Since works with Windows 10 bezel image and question box, but there do not show. Is it because of Google, Firefox, Windows 10 or a joint problem? Have looked for a solution and tried many suggestions but nothing works?

    Thank you, Rob

    My apologies to you Fred.

    The fault was all my decisions. The desktop of Windows 10 had been configured in white using my Visual problems.

    It is turn caused the faulty display of Google in Firefox.

    A test in the normal Windows theme shows the Google logo and question box frame correctly. This is perhaps why MS do not offer a standard white desktop computer in W10.

    Sorry and best regards

  • I can't open Gmail message when using Firefox, although I can with Chrome. New problem.

    All of a sudden I can't open Gmail messages if I'm in Firefox. The Inbox comes with all the titles of message, but when I click on any one of them I just get the title with an empty window below.
    If I'm in the Chrome browser when I use Gmail, there is no problem.
    I prefer Firefox to Chrome, but I can't use it if I can't access my Gmail messages with it. 8.0 Firefox is not in sync with Gmail?

    Thanks Yorknyc! Trying to reply to or transfer a message has not make visible to me, but I try to print he made! Then I hit like watching a few messages, and then all the problem disappeared. No idea why, but everything just happy to have all my messages visible.
