Once I exit Firefox, my online login is not saved. I have followed the advice in the forum, but it does not work once you log out of FF

I have a new iMac OS X 10.6.7
With my older computer, I could save my banking online login id, but I can't get it to work on this one. I set the privacy settings as follows: Use custom settings for history
Items checked are:
Remember my browsing history
Remember download history
Remember search & form history
Accept cookies from sites
Keep until they expire.
Nothing else is checked off.

it is possible that the file <i>cookies.sqlite</i> that stores the cookies is corrupted.
Rename (or delete) <b>cookies.sqlite</b> (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete <b>cookies.sqlite-journal</b> and <b>cookies.txt</b>, if they exist, in the Firefox Profile Folder in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.

    I had the same problem and it was because of my firewall settings, which I had set to block all activity and forgot to reset it.

  • Firefox home for the iPhone sync's initially but, it does not continue to sync after that. Is there something wrong with firefox sync or an issue with my app?

    Once firefox on the computer is closed for the first time after sync is setup it will not longer sync to the iPhone. I have tried deleteing and reading account several times. I refresh the app on iPhone. Nothing will work. One the initial sync is complete. Thats it.

    hello, mozilla has [https://blog.mozilla.org/services/2012/08/31/retiring-firefox-home/ stopped development & further support for firefox home] on ios devices halve a year ago. as an alternative you might want to try the following app & see if it is fixing the issue: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/bookmarks-on-the-go/id550037184

  • I have pinned google reader as an app, but it does not load when I restart firefox beta 8. Any ideas?

    I use google reader (www.google.com./reader) and thought I would use the pin as app feature. I right click the tab and select pin as app. The tab shrinks and looks like it has done this but when I close and restart Firefox the pinned tab is not there.

    I am having this problem with all app tabs I have tried creating: hotmail, facebook, linkedin.

  • Firefox has application/x support but Safari does not

    Why does the Firefox browser for Mac have a plugin that handles "application/x-oleobject" content such as that found at the CBSnews.com web site, but Safari does not. Cann't Apple stay up to date with this MS MIME type?

  • I adjusted the login module, but it does not work.

    I Adjust the Login Module Stacks according to the
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/aa/bf503e1dac5b46e10000000a114084/content.htm
    I adjusted the Hello Application provided by the SAP J2EE Server, I remove all the login modules, I hope there is no login page displaying when I access to the Hello page again. But it does not work. The login page always appears.
      Was I wrong to understand it?
    Any reply is appreciated.

    1. I finished configuration for Login module.
       2. And the document say, the last step is to make
    sure the login modules take effort when the application
    is accessed, using the Application Tracing Servie to
    restart the affected application.
       But, I have not found the Application Tracing Service
    to restart the affected application.
       I think it is why it does not work.
       Hope your your any recommendations and Points must be
    rewarded.

  • When logging in into yahoo mail after typing in password Firefox is adding something, login fails all the time. At yahoo mail Notepad does not work because it is impossible to close the list of items and they cover information, so I have to go to IE.

    When logging in into yahoo mail after typing in password Firefox is adding something, probably remembered password and login fails all the time. At yahoo mail Notepad does not work because it is impossible to close the list of items and they cover information, so I have to go to IE.

    Only when i go to a different browser (like IE) after i clear it , then all that shows up is the pages i visited in IE , that is what bugs me , why is IE browsing history sowing up in Firefox ??
    Basically , i can clear the history in Firefox , and then for a example , go to Craigslist , using IE7 (launching it from a complete different Icon , in other words at that time i never open Firefox) , then after closing out , or even leaving open as it does not seem to matter , i go into Firefox , and hit History , and there is every place i visited in IE7 , on my History in Firefox

  • I cannot open a new tab - when I restart firefox (or my computer), ctrl T does not work, and the "+" tab next to the single tab on my browser window does NOT open a second tab

    Firefox3.6.18, running on WinXP (all the Microsoft patches), opens with a single tab. Clicking the Add Tab "+" or pressing CTRL T does not open a new tab, although I can open a new window. Also, when exiting from Firefox, my tab location is not saved.

    Please disable or uninstall the Ask toolbar extension to solve your problem. It has a known incompatibility with Firefox. See [[Uninstalling add-ons]].

  • Why does Firefox sometimes ask me if I want to save my tabs when I close, and sometimes it does not? I usually want to save them, so this is a pain. I'm on a Mac, OS 10.5.8

    I cannot install Creative Suite 5.5 on my Windows 7 Professional. I keep getting error message: "Exit Code: 15 - Media DB sync failed". I have disabled UAC and Startup items and Services with no luck. Can you please help?

    I am sorry Erickkasner but there is no longer direct support provided for Creative Suite 5.5 installation issues.
    You are welcome to post any specific errors you are able to discover within your installation log to this discussion.  Since you are using Windows then Exit Code 15 could mean one of the following:
    Installer database is corrupted
    Update pending to your operating system
    Improper permissions set for the Media.db
    The installation log file should provide additional insight into the exact error you are experiencing.  Please make sure to use the find command to look for the words 'ERROR' and 'FATAL' to locate the relevant error messages.

  • I keep getting the message: "what should firefox do with this file" in Windows XP every time I want to download a file, e.g., adobe, excel, etc. How can this annoying message be deleted? The check box to "open file automatically" does not work!

    I keep getting the message: "what should Firefox do with this file" in Windows XP every time I want to download a file, e.g., adobe, excel, etc. How can this annoying message be deleted? The check box to "open file automatically" does not work!

    cor-el,
    Thanks for your prompt reply. However, the sources you gave do not seem to apply exactly to my situation. I have attached some screenshots that show what the dialogue box looks like for a pdf download, and what my settings in the Apps panel of Options are. You will note in the first screenshot that I have checked the box to handle this file type automatically; however, the next time I try to download a file of that type, the same dialogue box appears looking exactly like the one shown, so checking the "automatic" option appears to do nothing. The files to be downloaded from my Gmail messages are not generic or altered file types - they are shown as pdf, doc, docx, etc. So while your intent was good, your post did not help. Thanks anyway.

  • Changed my Apple ID email, but ICloud does not recognize my new login, only my old one (which is now non-existent) HELP!

    Changed my Apple ID email, but ICloud does not recognize my new login, only my old one (which is now non-existent) and requires the password to do anything. Everytime I go onto the ICloud  page it shows my old email and requires the password, but I can't exactly type in a password because that won't work. I can't find a way to change my email or delete ICloud.

    If the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, do the following:
    Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID.  If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
    Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.)  Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID).  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

  • When Firefox is open the zoom function (option/command/space bar) does not work in Adobe programs (InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator)

    Mac OS X 10.6.7
    CS 5.5
    When Firefox is open the zoom function (option/command/space bar) does not work in Adobe programs (InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator). This happens only when Firefox is open and when I close it the zoom functions work fine again without having to restart the applications.
    This is intermittent but happens quite frequently each day if Firefox is active.

    MDN doesn't mention -chrome being used for ordinary web pages: https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Mozilla/Command_Line_Options#Chrome
    When I use
    firefox.exe -chrome about:permissions
    I get a usable window, but zoom doesn't work as you noted.
    How about using an intermediate page and window.open() for the target page? You can (mostly) restrict the chrome of windows opened that way, but it will leave behind the intermediate window...
