Chat is not available for Gmail for Firefox 14.0.1. Other browsers and lower version of Firefox works.

I have installed the Firefox 14.0.1 version. Since then the Chat for Gmail is not popping up. I checked with other internet browsers and the chat works perfectly on Gmail.

Is there any special plug in needed for this version? Is this a bug in the new Firefox version? What is needed to get the chat on Gmail enabled for this version.

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 Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.
