I'm trying to access my gmail account while on firefox but when click on the gmail link on the google page (I'm signed into my google account) I get a box from google that says to check cookies, clear cache & check privacy settings. I can not find any wrong with them.

Hi, delete all references to Gmail, as shown under the heading 'How do I remove a single website from my history?' in this article - Delete browsing, search and download history on Firefox, then try the site (not from an old bookmark) again.

Also make sure cookies are enabled: Settings for privacy, browsing history and do-not-track

Note, you are using an old version of Firefox, which can compromise your security and may cause other problems. To update it, open the 3-bar menu > Help (question mark at bottom right) > About Firefox. Alternatively, you can press the Alt key to bring up the main menu bar > Help > About Firefox. More - Update Firefox to the latest release.
