Firefox Community Forum

When I log into Amazon, the ID is entered as usual. When the screen changes to enter the password an additional box opens up asking for a pin as shown in the attached image. It says it is from Windows security, but also says Firefox is making the request. None of the pins I know of work. Fortunately clicking on cancel clears the box and the PW can be entered.

Is Windows Security, Firefox, Password manager, anti-virus program, etc. generating the box. Would love to have it stop popping up. Suggestions please.

I like using Firefox but it is increasingly becoming incompatible with more and more websites. There is nothing wrong with the websites, I can login using Google Chrome just fine. Firefox simply won't allow me to login to certain websites that I was able to access using Firefox before. Anyone know why this is happening?

So, my firefox is now starting to malfunction since i tried loggin in back, changed by passowrd, tried again and still couldnt't sign in fully. Is it a bug or a glitch, and is there any way to fix it?

Recently one of my computers was hacked. The malware was removed but it looks like it stole active sessions and perhaps no passwords. In v 130.0.1 How are synced passwords stored locally? Is the key still easily accessible? Does the new "Require device sign in to fill and manage passwords" option change how the key is stored or does it further encrypt the file like "master password" does? Thanks!

If mozila Firefox is unlocked with a master password & we continue browsing , will passwords be still safe & secured by firefox protection during that browsing session ?

Tried resetting password, which system confirms, but when I try to sned a message the password is not accepted A message appears thus :- Sending of username did not succeed. Mail server mail.plus.net responded: Mate, the command must be one of CAPA, USER, PASS or QUIT I do not understand what this means.

Another message can appear :- Sending of the message failed.

Firefox was corrupted during a windows update. I can't access anything, passwords, bookmarks ,nothing. I didn't create new Firefox account because it said I would lose all of that info. How do I get it back, this is a nightmare.

Firefox will not let me login to my Lowes.com or Hulu.com accounts. Enter UID and PW, then click login button and nothing. Both work fine on Chrome. Have cleared data for both sites. These both happened just recently. A week ago both worked fine.

I have multiple gmail accounts and I don't always have them open on every tab. For some reason, every few days at random, whenever I swap to a different gmail account I keep receiving the message.

"The page isn’t redirecting properly

An error occurred during a connection to mail.google.com.

This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies."

I double checked if my cookies are blocked, and they werent. I am currently on standard tracking protection. I have tried removing my cookies and history and they work temporarily, but then the issue happens again after a few days.

I don't think my extensions are causing the problem either unless Adnauseum is changing something? I don't have any scripts running from Tampermonkey either.

Please help, this is getting irritating having to delete my history and cookies over and over again.

I’m the webmaster for three sites and have been for years. Never had any trouble logging in to my sites until last Thursday.

Suddenly, when using Firefox to login, I got the message “incorrect email or password”

I tried changing my password via the normal route. When I clicked the “can’t log in” button, it buffered for a while and then a box came up saying “an error occurred while attempting to send recovery instructions.”

I also tried clearing my cache and rebooting. Nothing changed.

I just tried to login to another site I use frequently. Same thing happened.

But they all work just fine if I login through Chrome.

Any thoughts on what to do?

On my first sign-in attempt I get a message indicating my computer cannot connect to the server. I am asked to wait 15 minutes and sign in again. As long as I wait 15 minutes or more, the second sign-in attempt is successful. What is going on here? What do I need to do to be able to connect on my first sign-on attempt?

I can log in to my BT emails using Firefox, & they appear on the screen, but are 'greyed out' & I can't read them or do anything with them. To read them, I have to use Microsoft Edge as my browser.

Hello,

I have done some looking into this issue, what I have found is it is a cookies and cache issue. However I have added youtube.com to the exceptions list for each cookies setting mentioned but yet every time I load youtube on a fresh mozilla instance it makes me send a verification to youtube on my phone, then loads a oops sorry we cant load this page with a youtube search bar on it. I can't figure out how to keep my sign in on youtube, and having to send a verification link to my cellphone every single time is getting tiresome. Any help would be appreciated thanks.

Grim.
