Redirected at sign in New York Times (and a few other sites) and Firefox will not remember login username or password.

He looked a few days ago. Using an iMac 27 inches, 10.8.5, 28.0 Firefox running.

I had the same NYT years account and I got disconnected somehow. When I try to read a story or a sign on my account via the home page (upper right corner sign in button) I simply redirected to the home page with the same sign in button, normally it displays your user name. I tried everything erase the cache, cookies and a full and clean re - install, twice. I called the New York TIMES, and they are totally perplexed. Computer is protected by a firewall and antivirused, no viruses known etc...

Any ideas out there? Thank you!

Thanks for the reply.

I solved the problem. It turns out that there was a problem with my anti-virus software, which involved a filter cookies that had to be put off. DOH!

  • I am trying to sign a certificate (using Mac) and Firefox will not accept the password.

    The certificate is used to authenticate my identity.

    He rejects every time - turn the box a certificate with password space empty. I've seen a few questions about certificate issues in Firefox there a few months they will be solved? Any ideas of a workaround in the meantime?

    Hello
    I had the same problem, and I read somewhere that, according to a mozilla knowledge base article, the password is a requirement for import certificates (although the corresponding KB page is now unavailable)

    I tried the following and it worked for me:
    -certificates of export on the desktop
    -remove the certificates in firefox
    -set a master password on firefox (preferences - security - using the master password)
    -import certificates

    You should now be able to sign.
    Hope this helps

  • I deleted internet explore and now my computer and firefox will not work/really slow. How to fix?

    I thought I had a virus on my Internet explore and the tech in the street guy told me to download firefox and remove internet Explorer. When I did it, firefox will not load but shows up in my task manager everytime I try to open it. My computer is very slow now and firefox does not open...

    Sometimes my computer is running slow also. If Firefox will do it, see if you can download internet explorer from there, but as you said that it was slow, it might take some time.

  • Firefox will not identify FF username account on a new installation on the new computer.

    I know that I have the good username, email and password, because I'm looking at them on my laptop existing. But on the installation of 28 FF on my new computer laptop, and you try to start the synchronization process, I get the message "account unknown."
    When I choose the start synchronization process on my new computer, I get this sign in the message. But I can't sign, let alone start the pairing process.
    I did the front pairing process, recently, with my desktop and my laptop existing, so I know it works. Something about FF is not allowing it to recognize my correct email.
    I'm on Win 8.1.
    Thank you.

    Please update Firefox 29,0. Firefox is passed on using the synchronization using Firefox. When installing 29,0, visit Subject: accounts in the URL bar to get started with the implementation of a sync account.

    You get a sticker or other indication on the Windows task bar that there is a window of Firefox "somewhere", but it is not visible anywhere?

    If there is a tile (or a title of the window above the Firefox button in the task bar):

    The Firefox window sometimes opens off screen. If you have a multiple monitor configuration, make sure that both monitors are on. Other users have reported that sometimes Firefox acts strangely while the second monitor is turned off. You mentioned that both monitors are on in your case.

    In all other cases: you can often force the Firefox window is displayed on the screen by double clicking on the thumbnail image just above the taskbar and choose expand. Does it work?

    A possible cause for this is that the file that stores the positions and sizes of window is corrupt.

    #1 method: If you can get a zoomed window:

    Open the settings folder (AKA Firefox profile) current Firefox help

    • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > troubleshooting information
    • (menu bar) Help > troubleshooting information
    • type or paste everything: in the address bar and press Enter

    In the first table of the page, click on the view file"" button. This should launch a new window that lists the various files and folders in Windows Explorer.

    Leave this window open, switch back to Firefox and output, either:

    • "3-bar" menu button > button "power".
    • (menu bar) File > Exit

    Pause while Firefox finishing its cleanup, then rename xulstore.json to something like xulstore.old. If you see a file named localstore.rdf, rename this to localstore.old as well.

    Launch Firefox back up again. Windows normally appear again?

    #2 method: If you can not get a Firefox window for all:

    Close Firefox by right clicking the icon in the taskbar > close all windows.

    Using the Run dialog box (windows key + R) or search from the start menu (bar (or, in Windows 8 may bar charms bar research?) type or paste the following and press ENTER to drill down to the profiles folder):

    %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
    

    Here you can see a folder - in this case, double-click that - or more than one case - in this case, double-click on in what looks like the most recently updated.

    Scroll down and rename xulstore.json to something like xulstore.old. If you see a file named localstore.rdf, rename this to localstore.old as well.

    Launch Firefox back up again. Windows normally appear again?

  • Ive installed the new flash player and it will not work.

    I recently had my pc infected by many viriuses. my pc has been cleaned by some of the following malwarebytes, avira and macafee. I think that iam in 32-bit windows Explorer. When I looked there is nothing after the ' # ' but it doesn't say "in the level of 128-bit encryption. What can I do?

    Hi again, ok. Now since you have McAfee as a paid version, I would like to uninstall Avira or turn it off at least. The rule is to have an anti-virus program, since most of which will cause conflictions. MBAM is ok, as long as it's right on your desktop and you run it when you want.

    What we will do is to uninstall the current version of Flash Player, install vs 9, then uninstall vs 9, then install the most recent Flash Player vs which is 10.1.102.64.

    To do this, use the administrator account.

     

    Go to this site and download and SAVE the program uninstaller on your desktop:

    http://kb2.Adobe.com/CPS/141/tn_14157.html

    Go to this site and download and SAVE the installer to your desktop:

    http://kb2.Adobe.com/CPS/406/kb406791.html

    You page down for Solutions and under Windows in Flash Player 9 and use the Internet Explorer 1.46 MB

    Go to this site and download and SAVE the installer to your desktop:

    http://www.Adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html

    You will use the Windows, Internet Explorer download EXE to install

     

    Once you have on your desk, using the administrator account, you CLOSE all browser windows.

    Disable McAfee & Avira

    Look in your tray (area near the clock) system for instant messengers, yahoo, aol, etc and turn them off.

    Your computer, run the program uninstall and when it's finished, Reboot (restart).

    Check and make sure that McAfee & Avira are always disabled.

    Run the Setup from vs 9 and when you're done, restart your computer

     

    Test your browser here and you should be able to see the Flash animation (spin) logo and the Flash Player version must be listed.

    http://www.Adobe.com/software/Flash/about/  Must vs 9

    Now, you run the program to uninstall again to uninstall vs 9, when finished, restart your computer

    Check and make sure that McAfee & Avira are always disabled.

    Run Setup vs 10.1.102.64 and when finished, restart your computer.

    Then test your browser and you should have now installed 10.1.102.64 vs.

    You may want to print these directions to make it easier to follow.

    If you have any questions, let me know.

    Thank you

    I called the New York Times, and they said that they had several people with the same complaint. I did not have this problem before today. Normally, I recognized when I go on the site and do not have to connect at all. Today, I was not recognized and when I tried to connect, it says that there is an unspecified error and wouldn't let me open a session.

  • Since I've upgraded to Firefox 35.0, the site of the New York Times causes Firefox run slowly.

    The site of the New York Times is the only site because of Firefox to experience this extreme slowness. Firefox update made no difference. To view the website of times without slow, I had to add the site to the blacklist of the JavaScript to YesScript 2.0, but this, of course, disable many features of JavaScript on the site.

    Try disabling hardware acceleration in Firefox.

    You can also try to disable hardware acceleration in Flash Player and turn off protected in Flash drive mode
