Enter master password prompt is broken.

The browser used to ask the master password when you had to fill in a name of user and password. Now it randomly comes up with the prompt during the first two pages, normally when I type in a URL. and I hit the darn prompt is to eat what I'm typing. Either ask him as SOON as the browser opens or when she needs it but they functioning now is so boring I mostly spent same IE thought that I used to love firefox.

  • Firefox master password prompt appears randomly

    Whenever I open Firefox, password master prompt appears randomly in 30 seconds. Sometimes, I always sit on the home screen when I get to the command prompt.

    I tried updating Firefox, reinstall Firefox, I turned my requirement of password master on and out, rebooted the computer... nothing seems to work.

    I would like to either invite him immediately, as soon as I open my browser, or when it is really necessary, as when I open a login page. Not the current, apparently random aspect that disturbs me in the middle of browsing the web.

    This bug is so boring that it's a deal breaker for me. It is particularly annoying when I start typing something, and then the password master guest appears without warning and takes the focus of cursor with her. I have to stop what I'm doing, confront the master password prompt, and then go back to what I do.

    In the meantime, I switched to Chrome wire, which is to serve my needs very well, but I would go back to Firefox if I can solve this problem.

    Hi Will,

    Using Firefox Sync?

    In order to secure your login information from synchronization, you must unlock your master password before that Firefox can synchronize.

  • Master password prompt steals focus

    I have no problem entering my main password for each session. However, the prompt to the unpredictable times, sometimes I'm in the process of typing something else (IE a URL).
    Is there a setting anywhere to stop the guest to steal my attention so I can get the password into my own time? The default behavior is quite annoying.
    Thank you.

    You can look at extensions such as these:

  • Can not enter master password from the keyboard, but can copy with the mouse.

    I use gentoo and installation using portage. Firefox-31, 7 is fine, but firefox-36, firefox firefox-37-38 are cannot enter Masterpassword key, now I use firefox - 38.0.5,.
    When you create the user on this web site, password is can not enter key, so I copy with the mouse.
    I check if a new version is announced for portage (gentoo), check, but once firefox-36 can not enter password to key, even they seem.

    Note that Firefox uses its own storage of password (logins.json and key3db) and not the keychain Linux (hippocampus) application.

  • I have the two Master Sync activated WITHOUT be asked for master password said at the start of the session and password?

    The basic question is that whenever I start Firefox, I am invited, a few seconds later, my master password, regardless of if I will actually connect a site for which I saved my credentials.
    This same number as well as a replica of his original poster chosen as the best answer has been published on the following link: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1039575

    I'm in the same situation as this poster, but I don't want to turn off sync. I need the master password set to protect my passwords stored, and I need the Sync feature enabled to share my profile between different computers that I use.
    If I close the master password prompt at the start of the session and then I go to a page that I recorded the password, I should I get prompted again, and that's all I need. Also, I've installed Sync do NOT share my passwords stored, where the master password invite so that the effect is useless in my case.

    So the question is simply how can I turn off the prompt for password at startup, have it pop up when you access a site that needs a password stored (or ask if I want to save a) and keep the clock running without sharing passwords.

    Thanks in advance.

    No, this is not possible.
    Sync must retrieve the journal of authentication data in password manager and which requires to enter the password to unlock the password.

    The synchronization used in Firefox 34 version then use password manager to store the name (e-mail) and password to use to connect to the synchronization server.
    The chrome://FirefoxAccounts entry in the Password Manager stores (kA and kB) credentials in JSON format.
    Earlier versions of Firefox used to store these data in the signedInUser.json file in the profile folder, but the current version only stores the sessionToken in this file and must the Manager password for the credentials of the synchronization.

  • Thunderbird 38.0.1 requires the master password to be entered twice after activation of Gmail OAuth

    I have a Gmail (IMAP) and an iCloud (IMAP) TB account protected by a master password. Since the upgrade to to 38.0.1 and the configuration of the acct of Gmail for OAuth I find that when I run the application of TB he invites me for the password twice before that I can move forward. I tried to remove the iCloud acct and then he needed only the password entered once, but as soon as I have readded the iCloud acct invites more twice once for the password. It seems that you must now enter once for each account e-mail instead of after the period. It seems to be triggered by changing the Gmail to OAuth as previously he worked as documented (a single master password entry) with two e-mail accounts.

    In fact, when launching first TB appears very briefly the form of drop down menu of master password and then immediately disappears (before), because then he slide down again to allow the first entry in the master password.

    Good news - updated my Mac to 38.1 TB newly released solved the problem of the Thunderbird menu corrupted when you use StartupMaster 1.6.1.

    Now I can use StartupMaster successfully to bypass the password multiple guest problem (bug #177175) at the launch of Thunderbird.

  • The function of master password automatically enter other sites usernames and passwords when you access these sites, or that they are always manually?

    Master password enter usernames and passwords automatically, or should the user still manually enter this info?

    Yes, after you set a master password, you will be asked to enter when Firefox needs to access your stored passwords. It will "unlock" the usernames and passwords you have saved and Firefox will automatically added automatically in for you when you navigate from site to site.

    When you are finished using the web, you can exit Firefox to "lock" your usernames and passwords.

    Have a Satellite PRO S300 (PSSB0A - 06500T), who is with Stop 7B BSOD-ing and I go into the solid part of the BIOS so I can reset the boot order to allow me to re - install Win XP.

    I think you hold a key in the market. Try holding the "INS" key to get the supervisor password to appear prompt.

  • Not prompted to enter the password for the wireless connection.

    I have windows 7 and were able to access wifi trouble-free connections. However, today, I'm at a new location and when I click on the desired link I don't get no prompt to enter the password or key. I can access my computer connection currently wifes laptop so I know that the connection is working correctly. I went to control panel, network configuration and manage the connections and removed all my other connections. I rebooted and still cannot access the connection desired because I can not enter the password. I also tried to add the connection and it still doesn't work. Thanks for your help!

    Hello

    In the same exact location, your wireless computer does not work, and your wife request computer password and works OK with the password?

    The password prompt is displayed only after the computer is currently connected to the access point.

    Maybe your computer firewall blocks the ability to connect to the access point.

    Wireless in general.

    Most laptops have a physical switch for the wireless card. Read the manual of the computer and make sure that the wireless adapter is on.

    Check the Device Manager for the wireless card valid entry.

    http://www.ezlan.NET/Win7/net_dm.jpg

    If there is no valid entry, remove any entry from fake and re - install the drivers for the wireless card.

    Check network connections to make sure that you have a network icon/entry wireless connection, and that the properties of the icon (right-click on the icon) are correctly configured with the TCP/IPv4 protocol in the properties of network connections.

    http://www.ezlan.NET/Win7/net_connection_tcp.jpg

    Make sure that if there is Wireless Utility a utility vendor is not running with the native Windows wireless utility.

    Make sure you firewall No. preventing / blocks wireless components to join the network.

    Above everything is OK and it connects to the wireless router. Log in from any computer which is, or can be connected to the router with a wire wireless, disable wireless security, make sure that the wireless streaming is enabled and try to connect with no. wireless security.

    When the work turns on the Wireless security.

    Note * people sometimes make mistakes in writing and retype the password for security.

    Another way is to copy in the menu of the router and then paste it when asked of the wireless card.

    --------------------------------------------------

    I really checked and configured every thing and it doesn't work.

    Software firewall application that is not configured to allow local traffic (between the computer and the router is also a possible problem.
    some 3rd party software firewall continue to block the same aspects it traffic Local, they are turned Off (disabled). If possible, configure the firewall correctly or completely uninstall to allow a clean flow of local network traffic. If the 3rd party software is uninstalled, or disables, make sure Windows native firewall is active .

  • I've set up a master password and for some reason its not recognize and cannot enter the e-mail and job site. I tried to delete it, but can not. Help

    I tried to take out additional coverage on the internet with a master password. Unfortunately what I typed to the origin is not excluded or recognized. This causes me a major problem due to one of the sites I use for work being blocked, as well as my original e-mail. How can I solve this problem? I tried to turn it off, but it requires the correct password and it does not work. Don't know what happened or if I typed a wrong typo. Can you help me on your end?

    PAM

    Firefox master password feature protects your saved passwords. However, even if you are unable to access your saved passwords, you should be able to connect to the site manually (by typing your user name and password). Is that somehow have blocked as well?

    If you have forgotten your master password, you can delete and create a new. However, I think that will also erase all your saved connections and you will save them again. More information on this: reset your master password if you forget.

    If the problem is not with the Firefox built-in password manager but another (add-on, the external program), then steps would be different, but they depend on what you use.

  • Cannot access my Thunderbird because of master password

    So I put a master password on my account and then now I can not connect to it because I forgot. I don't want to have to switch back to Outlook and really want to continue to use Thunderbird. I tried various solutions on the support forums, for example by changing the expression in tools, hit Cancel a couple of times but nothing. I even uninstalled and reinstalled Thunderbird, deleted the AppData folder and reinstalled and still it still invites me to enter the password. Thunderbird doesn't even come to the top in the background, just the prompt to enter the master password.
