Hello Everyone, I am using Firefox 50.1.0 at the moment with google home page and search engine. I sign
into gmail, and when it gets to my inbox, emails have type over the top of them to start with. I have
done a search on this one, but have not found a reason why.:D

I'd first try clearing the Firefox browser history just in case it loaded and saved a bad gmail sign in page.

How to clear the Firefox cache | Firefox Help

If you still have issues then your update to 50.1.0 might have have been damaged or corrupt during the install. You could try refreshing Firefox.

Finally, if still no joy you can go through the Firefox troubleshooting steps.

Thank you for replying. I have tried all of the above, and signed into gmail, and it is still the same. I have
found the same thing when I had tried previous versions of Firefox. I am using IE11 again, and have just
pinned gmail login to the task bar, and inbox messages are normal. I do like Firefox, but Iseem to always
have this happen with gmail inbox while using it. :)

I will mark this thread as solved, as I can access gmail through IE11 with no problems, and Firefox is still
good for browsing.

I'm sorry to hear the Firefox problem remains. But I'm glad that IE11 works for you. I've been using Firefox as my primary browser for several years and I also have 50.1.0 installed. When you open your gmail account do you see a gear icon in the upper right corner? (See screenshot.) If yes, you can try changing some of the gmail settings. Perhaps there's another setting that will play nice with Firefox.

Hello Again Marsmimar, I have tried different settings within gmail, and it stays the same, just some
odd little thing going on.:D
