Why should I return my password every time I have to leave my computer idle for more than 30 seconds?

Why should I return my password every time I have to leave my computer idle for more than 30 seconds?

You set your options of power that computer goes to screen saver if you left computer idle for 30 minutes?
If so, and if you don't want to enter password once again, this...

Start button > in the search box, type screensaver > press enter > in the settings window of the screensaver, uncheck "On summary, the logon screen" > click OK when finished.

  • Is it possible that I can put in place to make the firefox browser will automatically close if it is sitting idle for more than a specified time

    its simple, my mother and her boyfriend have a real bad habit away from their computers, leaving their browsers on and no matter how many times I tell them that they need to close the browser down when their fact use it unless they know that they will come right back to him and when they know that they wont be with us for a day or more and also shut down the computer , but they leave still on sometimes for days unless I happen to go into the computer room and check to see if its still run this has got to be so bad that our internet provider sends us nasty emails on the internet.

    so is it possible that we can install the browser to off automatically if it is sitting idle for some time that may be determined by the user

  • How can I stop firefox update pages permanently? I have to click 'back' to dozens of times if I'm on a page for more than 15 seconds.

    each page in each open tab refreshes all the 30 seconds and each time it is saved in my cache. If I want to go back to the previous page, I have to click on to return once the 30 seconds, I was on the current page. Very annoying! He just started this recently, and I don't know why. I have reset the subject: config to '0', but that has not helped.

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see how it works there.

    A way of solving problems, which disables most of the modules.

    The problems of Firefox using Firefox SafeMode

    When in Safe Mode...

    • The State of plugins is not affected.
    • Custom preferences are not affected.
    • All extensions are disabled.
    • The default theme is used, without a character.
    • userChrome.css and userContent.css are ignored.
    • The layout of the default toolbar is used.
    • The JIT Javascript compiler is disabled.
    • Hardware acceleration is disabled.
    • You can open the mode without failure of Firefox 15.0 + by pressing the SHIFT key when you use the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • Or use the Help menu option, click restart with the disabled... modules while Firefox is running.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the shortcut of Firefox (without the Shift key) to open it again.

    If it's good in Firefox Safe mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one.

    Or it could be caused by hardware acceleration.

  • How can I get the window 'Remember password' to show for more than 2 seconds?

    Many hotels offer wifi access with a good and an ID that you enter each time that you connect. Firefox easily stores the ID and the password so I don't have to worry about finding the right, but the gate of the hotel displays a pop up right after login. At the same time, Firefox offers to save the password and the popup is the prompt of password remember disappear.
    I can can this setting somewhere or get the prompt back?
    I'm never fast enough to click "remember password".
    Thank you
    Chris

    This happens on all websites, or just this one?

    If there is a key icon located on the left side of your address bar, you can click this option to open the password prompt again.

    If there is no key icon in the address bar, it is most likely because the site is configured to redirect to another page or a domain. Once you are redirected or navigate to another page, the password dialog box will disappear.

    Unfortunately, if this is the case, nothing you can do, as the redirect is probably in the codes of the Web site. The only option would be to try to stop the redirection Web site by clicking on the button stop in the address bar.

    You can also try temporarily turning the accessibility setting that prevents the redirection of Firefox Web sites. This can be changed from the advanced settings in the page options, on the general tab.

    Let us know if it works.

    Note: If you stop the redirection page, you probably to reload the page after you have saved the password, in order to allow the site load the appropriate content. If you turn on the warn me when forwarding setting, you will need to disable this feature, after you save this password, so that the website to function properly.

  • Black screen after leaving the computer idle for some time.

    Original title: Black screen

    Laptop screen starts to turn black every few seconds so I don't use it to take a short break.  The only way to get back the screen is to move a finger on the mouse pad, otherwise, it is just black.  The only way to stop what is happening is to switch off the laptop, wait a few moments and then turn on laptop.  But if I take another short break, this cycle repeats.  Any ideas please.

  • How can I get my email without entering a password every time?

    It seems that now I have to enter my password every time I use Tbird to download my email. Previous to this problem, two things:
    (1) my e-mail account had been compromised, so I changed the password with my ISP.

    (2) I tried to use a master password to Tbird Options > Security and it is a pain. So I decided that I didn't want to use a master password and wanted to return to my e-mail downloads how did before, so I disabled the master password.

    Options > password security guard is populated by several email addresses and password. I want to keep them intact - but if I want to change the password, or delete it, the instructions indicate that all passwords will be lost. Do I need them in this place? I find that things don't quite work if I delete them the strike.

    I always get guests to enter a password when I use Tbird - my ISP password, it turns out that, not for my master password. I'm confused and want just that he make it simple again.

    If I want to change the password, or remove, the instructions say that all passwords will be lost.

    I don't know what are the instructions you're talking about, but I don't think that is correct. See
    http://KB.mozillazine.org/Master_password#Removing_your_master_password

    I always get guests to enter a password when I use Tbird

    When you get the password there is a checkbox to remember the password.

  • Firefox ask you useless master password every time you start

    When he started, Firefox asks unnecessarily my master password every time. My homepage (Google Finance) does not require a password. This occurs in SafeMode as well. It's annoying and time consuming. I X-out the main 10 seconds password request window after I start Firefox. Why would he do that? ... Firefox not used to do this.

    You use Sync?

    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.

    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 folder and need the password for the password manager.

  • Every day someone is trying to connect my Iphone. Do I have to change my password every time?

    Every day someone is trying to connect my Iphone6. Do I have to change my password every time? How can I stop this?

    Your post says that someone is trying to connect 'on' your iPhone 6 - have - they possession of the phone or they try to connect your Apple from another device ID?

    Note also that there are a number of phishing scams that send e-mails that appear to come from Apple, but are not current. Do not use any links in these emails if you are not.

    If they are trying only to log in instead of sign in successfully it would be not necessary to change your password. However, you can consider on for Apple ID - Apple Support two-factor authentication or frequently asked questions about check in two steps for Apple ID - Apple Support (if available) for more security.
