I just installed latest firefox on a new MacBook Air I purchased. I get this message after a short while "Your session has either timed out or has not been correctly established. Please sign on again." The site works fine with Safari. On another Apple computer I own it works fine on both Safari and Firefox. Please help

Hi; I did as directed and it still happened. First I log onto the site. That works fine. Then when I click to go to a different area on the same site I still get the error message saying I timed out.

  When I use Safari on the same computer it works fine. This just happens only with the Charles Schwab site so far on Firefox. Thanks
