Firefox home wont recognize my username
I have a firefox account and loaded firefox sync on my desktop, but firefox home wont let me log it "username not found"
Firefox Home doesn't work with *new* Firefox Sync accounts created with Sync 1.5 (released Oct. 6, 2010). Trying to log in to Firefox Home with these accounts will result in a "Login Failure User Name Not Found" error. We know this is not ideal to say the least but this will be fixed in the next version of Firefox Home (1.0.3) which is currently waiting for approval in the App Store.
New Firefox Home users, will need to use Sync 1.4.4 which can be downloaded here. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/downloads/file/96423/firefox_sync-1.4.4-fx+fn+sm.xpi?src=version-history&confirmed=1 Once you install Sync 1.4.4 you'll need to create a new Sync account and complete the initial sync again.

Iphone 4s wont recognize my username and password
I just got an iPhone 4s and when I go to install an app it says that my username or password is incorrect. I have reset my password 3 times and even opened up a new email account. It still won't recognize me. I have used the same info on my iPod touch with no problem. Help! This is very frustrating.
I am having this very same problem. I even went through the changing of my password and tried again and it's still not letting me sign in -.-

I just set up Firefox Home on my iPad and my iPhone and put a website (that requires a login) in my bookmarks bar. When I try to log in to my marked website, I just keep getting the login screen over and over again. Is this a problem with Firefox Home or the website that I'm trying to log in to?
Hi clarkfus,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Since this behavior is affecting multiple devices, I recommend first troubleshooting iTunes on your computer(s) using the article(s) below:

I have another kind of problem with Firefox
== Description

I've installed Firefox Sync on my desktop and Firefox Home on my iPhone 3Gs. However I can't log in to it on my phone. It keeps coming up with an error message: "Login Failure - unspecified failure". Well how the heck am I supposed to know what the problem is if it's "unspecified"? When going to help page it says go to tools, options, and click on sync and change your password. I don't have that option. In fact I don't have the ability to change anything. Am I doing something wrong? I don't know what to do at this point.

Firefox won't recognize latest update HP simple pass
I have tried everything and about just to say the heck with it and go back to IE9. But, I will ask.
WHY does Firefox refuse to recognize the latest upgrade to HP simple pass (Egistech) that is loaded onto my computer. It keeps saying the current 5.0 version is not recognized. Ok, I understand this, but I have loaded version 7.1 and firefox evidently cannot see it and keeps telling me 5.0 is installed.
Am I doing something wrong, or is Firefox just worthless and IE9 is the way to go?Does Firefox find other plugins placed in that folder?
Note that you need to place a symlink to the libnpjp2.so file and not the actual file.
You can also try to create a plugins folder in your home directory: ~/.mozilla/plugins

Firefox Home not syncing passwords
I've installed Firefox Sync on my home desktop and Firefox Home on my iPod Touch.
Selected "sync everything" and now on my iPod I have all my bookmarks and tabs correctly synced.
However when I go to a bookmark which on my desktop automatically remembers the username/password, on the iPod the page loads but none of the password fields have been automatically entered.
Obviously something isn't syncing correctly, but the help system offers no advice on how to solve the problem.
I've tried refreshing everything, closing and opening the app (on desktop and iPod) but still no success.
Any advice would be appreciated.Sorry, the current version of Firefox Home for iPhone/iPod does not sync passwords. It only syncs tabs, bookmarks, and history.
You can sync passwords in Firefox on your Mac, Windows, and Linux computers, and in Firefox for Maemo and Android phones. -
Ipad wont recognize wireless network
ipad wont recognize wireless network
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netwhttp://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.
Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim

Pc wont recognize my ipod touch
what do i do if my pc wont recognize my ipod touch
I had the same problems following the updater update on my ipod and pc. it became so bad that the mini pod became fried and i brought it back under warranty for a new one (and service charge of about $35 to swap them out!). When I got home I reinstalled all of the software from installation to itunes and it seemed to work. then i updated as prompted to the newer ipod software and got a serious error message again like before on my ipod and off and on recognition on itunes. i erased software again, reset pod a few times, and reinstalled without allowing the ipod updater to do anything to the original software. now it works again. warning against the updater. keep it old and simple.

Firefox Sync does not sync usernames or passwords to my iPad
I set up Firefox Home on my Desktop and it syncs all bookmarks to my iPad which is perfect.
However, when using my iPad and Firefox Home, I select a book mark which resolves to an online location as it should but ... non of my login information is pre-populated such as usernames or passwords. Isn't this supposed to be the correct behavior? Did I misunderstand the value of Firefox Sync?Thanks for your response. What is stated about Firefox Home is:
"Firefox Home is a free application that works with Firefox Sync to give you instant access to your Firefox desktop history, open tabs and bookmarks on your iPhone or iPod Touch.".
I guess where Firefox Home falls short is it doesn't provide username and password support on the iphone or ipad ... ? -
