One minute gmail worked fine, the next it was gone. I use firefox, do not have adblock installed and have cleared the cache and cookies. I see gmail say it is transferring data from chatenabled.mail.google.com and the I get a blank page.  Any ideas?

My problem started the same date as the users in the post referenced below. Looks like Google made a change. Whatever, I'll move back to ISP mail. Anyone finds out anything, let me know. Thanks.

Well, if it comes down to using Gmail or Firefox and the few extensions I have ALWAYS used, I will give up Gmail. I uninstalled Firefox and got rid of my profile, re-installed the same configuration I had a week ago that worked then, and tried it. Gmail come up blank. This is a change made in just the last week and I am sick of Google changing thing unannounced and breaking stuff. There are other free email programs and I am off to my new one.

Hmm, too bad you're having such a lot of problems with it. Did you try another browser as well?

And.. Don't forget: Gmail is still in beta.. It's not really weird that beta projects change or break down every now and then.. That's why it's still in beta.

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I tried another browser, Internet Explorer. And it worked. However, I use firefox and up to a few days ago, firefox worked fine. Obviously Google did something to the Gmail site. Gmail has been a problem for a long time and this gives me a chance to move on. In the last few days I have discovered a world of non-google services and I like them. Maybe Google felt they had too many eyeballs and wanted some moved around. Works for me.

Oh, and the perpetual beta thing isn't even cute anymore. I think anybody who can't get a site or program out of "beta" in a year should probably stop coding.

Weird, I have always used GMail with Firefox on different machines, with and without extensions. Works fine. Wonder why you're having problems?

Yeah, I wonder, too. I'm not the only one having the problem either. However, I solved it by not using the site and just having everything sent to the email program on my machine. The only loss is to Google; they don't get my eyes on their site anymore.
