links to gmail won't work and google maps won't load
Gmail itself will load - if I type the gmail url in; if I just try and navigate to it from, say, google.co.uk it won't load. My university recently switched to gmail and none of their links work for me either.
Google maps displays a grey square with a "sorry we have no maps available for this area at this magnification" message for every location, at every magnification.

Please update to Firefox 20. Update Firefox to the latest release
I can't. I'm on Mac OS X 10.5.
Update to Firefox 16 then.
Done. It fixed neither problem.

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.

If images are missing then check that you aren't blocking images from some domains.
- Check the permissions for the domain in the current tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
- Check that images are enabled: Tools > Options > Content: [X] Load images automatically
- Check the exceptions in "Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions"
- Check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images with the cursor Down key).
If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "Block Images from..." then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
Make sure that you do not block third-party images, the permissions.default.image pref should be 1.
There are also extensions like Adblock Plus (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and security software firewall, anti-virus) that can block images and other content.

Safe mode indicated that it was an extension/add-on, so I disabled all extensions/add-ons and both gmail and google maps worked. I then re-enabled them all one by one, and... it still works. Even with all the extensions and add-ons from before enabled again. So...
Problem solved, but I'm not really sure how/why.
(other people with this problem please note: I'd tried this before in Firefox 15 and it didn't do anything; it only worked after updating to 16 )
