security of Gmail and thunderbrid 38.2
I had to put my Google gmail account to allow the less secure apps be able to enter my PW when getting mail Thunderbird.
It's not supposed to lower security just to start using Thunderbird. Needs fixing or I'm doing something wrong.
Thunderbird supports authentication OAuth2 for Gmail for IMAP accounts.
OAuth2 is what Google considers "safe."
OAuth2 isn't available for pop accounts This does not mean that Thunderbird is the "insecurity".
In any case, turning on 2 stages of authentication significantly improves the security of your Google account, whether or not you use OAuth2.
You do not have with 2 stages of authentication allow 'less secure apps.
See this topic for more information.

GMail and Google Plus constantly disconnected during the passage of the accounts
Hello
I recently installed Chrome. I know that it is a native product of Google so it will work differently, but one of the things that makes me want to move permanently to use it is that I can not have multiple GMail accounts open at the same time, what if it's just me on the computer and my firewall and virus scanner is updated should not make a bit of difference on security. But in Firefox if I have my main GMail account that opens my Google + account is attached to and then open my account of GMail arts I'm logged out of Google. I'm sorry it's ridiculous. So if you want to avoid that users who don't use Facebook and have multiple accounts GMail but only Google + account you guys really need to understand the right code to allow multiple GMail accounts to stay open. Also, if I 'Add account' to Google + drop zone in showdown at the next restart Firefox these accounts have disappeared. In Chrome, they stay. So, there's some glitchy stuff going on out there.
I do not want someone chime and tell me to add in other accounts to my main account, is not the purpose of this post. I am well aware of this capability in GMail and I choose not to use it for personal reasons.
Thank you
Richard McCormick

I am running Windows 7 and use parental control for several years. My kids use Google Chrome with GMail and GoogleDrive for a lot of their homework. In recent days on the child accounts Chrome slow down considerably with the message "establish a secure connection" when it starts for centuries, and then finally "Gmail App is not available". After trying everything else (cookies, compensation, disabling extensions, historical disconnect account) I turned off parental control of Microsoft, and Chrome came back to life. I've now changed the security settings to "block adult sites" to "warn on adult sites" and Chrome works very well. I'm not happy to leave this setting to warn but need to at the moment, so that they can do their homework. Is this a Microsoft problem or is there anything else I can try to solve it?
Thank you

I run firefox on a machine window7. I uninstalled couponamazing, verizon and a few other programs. Then I have updated flash and google chrome. I've never used google chrome before. On enter in firefox my gmail and facebook pages were not properly put in the form (all b + W with open boxes, no icons). I then uninstalled google chrome. I have read a few questions help and erased my money, removed history and reset firefox. Still have the same problems with gmail and FB.
OK, if the "no proxy"parameter does not help, can you please try to reset the browser again as described in: Firefox Refresh - reset the parameters and modules
one more thing to try is updating your driver intel graphics: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?DwnldID=23764 (for win7 64 bit)

Unable to open gmail and other google account services. Need urgent help. Firefox version is 29.0.1. Deleted all cache and history + wiped without addons. Urgent help please. Same problem in other browsers ie opera/IE. Other Internet sites without problem.
Personally, I've never had problems with ABP, but questions about ABP would be better answered in the AdBlock Plus forum where there are people more suited to respond as we only deal with technical support from Mozilla (e.. g the Fx of Firefox, Thunderbird, for Android)

Gmail and Yahoo mail are very slow to load. I get a message from the script almost whenever instruct me to continue or to stop the script. Everything I have shut down or restart the browser goes blank and hangs. So, I have to restart Firefox. I followed suggestions on the help pages for the slow e-mail accounts or issues. (cleared cache etc, reset etc.) nothing solves the problem. I only noticed the problem since the first update of FF25. Scripts to stop even on these pages is not acceptable, because you are directed to the pages who insist you must restart scripts. It's a nightmare! Gmail both Yahoomail are very slow to respond to clicks more.
Your list of details of the system shows that you have a user.js file in the profile folder to initialize some preferences at each start of Firefox.
The user.js file appears only if you or another software created, therefore, normally, he wouldn't be here.
You can check its contents with a text editor if you do not create this file yourself.The user.js file is read whenever you launch Firefox and initializes the preferences to the value specified in this file, so set of preferences via user.js can be changed temporarily for the current session.
You can rename or delete the prefs.js file and numbered possible prefs-# .js and the file user.js to reset all default prefs.
You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:
- Help > troubleshooting information > profile directory: see file (Linux: open the directory;) Mac: View in the Finder)
Note that the folder "Application Data" in XP/Win2K and the "AppData" folder in Windows Vista and Windows 7 and later versions are hidden folders.

Laptop became horribly slow online. Tests suggested corruption Firefox. R/R to the current version. Two mailboxes (everyone) are maintained as the last in use. All others are lost in the transition. Gmail and Yahoo do not recognize my new settings Firefox beyond two registered accounts. I have several accounts for various uses. I want to get back them, but there is no clear process for this. In addition, the same thing happened to all the saved passwords (planned) so I re-saved many of them. However, LinkedIn, Ebay, PayPal, Twitter, etc... not recognized. Lost mail customers say systems do not exist while the members accounts remain locked to lost email accounts. I appreciate your solutions or, if necessary, of the suggestions-such as support useful contacts to Gmail and Yahoo. Thanks,-Ed

After Firefox 13 update of Gmail and Twitter does not
I've updated to Firefox 13 and now Gmail and Twitter are very slow or not to load any. I've updated my plugins, I cleared the cache and cookies. What can I do else? Thank you.
Hello, some other users have reported the same questions for gmail & twitter with activated SPDY (which has been introduced in firefox 13).
enter Subject: config in the address bar and search for the preference named network.http.spdy.enabled and activate false by double-clicking on it - this disables the spdy Protocol. Please see if that works and a report. Thank you!
