Try clearing the cache/cookies for Gmail.

Click the menu icon at the top right corner, go to Preferences/Options > Privacy > Clear your recent history. Select the time frame for "everything" and unselect everything except cache.

Next, you want to click Remove individual cookies after exiting out of the delete history window. Search for mail.google.com or gmail.com and remove all cookies for ONLY gmail/mail.google.

Then restart Firefox.
Does that help?
