I have an igoogle account. I use it for the igoogle homepag and for gmail. They work fine. However, when I try to sign into google maps it always goes back to the sign in page. If I go to Safari I can log into Google maps just fine. There must be a setting in Firefox I need to change. I have done the "about:config" suggested in Firefox help but the settings are PK.

Mine is a similar problem with Firefox 3.6.18 on XP, service pack 3. Until a few days ago I could click on the Google Maps icon in the Google Tool Bar and I would be straight in. Now I am asked to sign in but this does not work.

I have found a work around but it is inconvenient. If I open Google Calendar from the tool bar, logged in straight away and then go to Account Settings - My Products and click on Maps I can then access My Places and do all I want with my maps. All other Google products that I use log straight in as does Google Maps in Windows IE8.

Answers Please.
