After typing master password in session can I force typing master password again without ending current session and starting new session?

Sometimes after using the master password to access an account during a given firefox session I would like to "revoke" this ability for automatic access (i.e. require typing the master password again) without having to end the current session and restart firefox.
While it is nice to only have to type the master password once per session, there are times when after starting some action I would like to leave the browser unattended for a short time but prevent others from accessing sensitive information at other sites if they do not know my master password. Note this is not the same as "locking the browser." Presently the only way I know to force this is to kill the current session and restart the browser but this is not very satisfactory if I actually want to stay connected (authorized) at a particular site. I would hope that adding a button on the security tab to "require master password for current session" would be a simple fix to implement? Thank you for your attention.

While waiting for a response to this question, I stumbled upon a partial (good workaround) answer to my question in the form of a Firefox addon, Master Password Timeout [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/master-password-timeout/ ]. Among other things it adds "Logout Master Password" as an option under the Firefox "Tools" menu which then gives the functionality I was looking for.
It seems to me though that this is a basic security option that would be good for a general Firefox user to be aware of since leaving a browser open unattended with no master password required could easily lead to trouble. Before finding this addon I was not aware that Firefox 4 had a 30 minute default timeout for the master password. At least in my case I have left Firefox going overnight on home computers and have not had to retype the master password the next morning... so somehow I missed having this "default" set when I upgraded to Firefox 4.

It is possible that there is a problem with the files [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
Delete [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
* Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note).

Can I retrieve a crashed session after accidentally clicking "Start new Session"

After getting the "Embarassing" dialogue, I accidentally clicked "Start new Session" instead of restore. Is there a way to access the cache and restore those tabs and windows? I'm running Windows and have not shut down my machine since the loss.

First, find your profile folder [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Profiles?s=Profile&as=s#How_to_find_your_profile by reading this]
Then, copy the files sessionstore.bak and sessionstore.js to another folder such as your desktop.
Close your Firefox and copy the sessionstore.js to the profile folder, and restart Firefox. See if your session was restored.
If not, close firefox, proceed to copy the second file (the .bak one) to the profile folder, and rename it to sessionstore.js , overwriting the other file. Restart Firefox.
If not any of these two files has your session saved, sorry.

Accidentally pushed "start new session" after crash. Tabs are gone from history.

After one of the ten crashes per day since I upgraded, I accidentally pushed, "Start New Session" instead of "restore". So, my '''closed window/tab records were wiped out''', and in my history, it only has those tabs that I opened anew this morning - NOT the ones I had saved so I could look at them later. A lot of these I had not bookmarked yet.

If you haven't closed Firefox then see if you still can restore that session via Firefox > History > Restore Previous Session.
You should update the Flash and Java plugin to the latest versions

This is illegal. There is no doubt about it

Some of my earliest photos are not showing on my phone after updating to iOS7. They can be seen in the app "over" which allows for art and lettering to be placed on a photo but I can not find an album for photos before 2012.

Some of my earliest photos are not showing on my phone5 after updating to iOS7. They can be seen in the app "over" which allows for art and lettering to be placed on a photo but I cannot find an album or year for photos before 2012 (in the photo app). The iphone says the photo content is there when I check in "about" under general in settings. So the pictures seem to be somewhere but I just can't access from from the photo app. Any suggestions. I also know that they were there before the iOS7 upgrade as I was looking for a pre 2012 picture last week and it we there.

Start new session automatically after the current one is expired

Hi Guys,
My application should be displayed on the screen 24/7 . The information there is being refreshed every 5 minutes. When the APEX session is expired the refresh stops working and the page has to be reloaded.
I'm looking for the solution that would allow to keep the application always on and to start new session automatically without a human being involved.
Thanks in advance,
Elena

Hi everybody,
Being impatient, I've already found a solution. I created a JavaScript function the reloads the page. Instead of current session ID in the url I use 1. In this case apex generates the new session.
The Timer Plug-in runs the function every X minutes.
The function code is the following:
function reload() {
     var url = location.href;
     var g_app_id = '&APP_ID.';
     var g_page_id = '&APP_PAGE_ID.';
     var patt = new RegExp("[^=]+","i"); // i - Perform case-insensitive matching
     var newUrl = url.match(patt) + "=" + g_app_id + ":" + g_page_id + ":1";
     window.location.assign(newUrl);
I hope it might be helpful for you guys.
Regards,
Elena

[SOLVED] KDE Start New Session doesn't work from lock screen

On my laptop, if I lock the KDE 4 session and then click Switch Users > Start New Session, I get a login screen and can log in as a different user. All good.
If I do the same thing on my desktop, it doesn't work. When I click Switch Users > Start New Session, it doesn't start a new session or switch VTs. Instead, I just get reprompted for the existing user's password.
Both machines are running fully updated Arch. Anyone know how I can troubleshoot this? The only difference I can think of between the laptop and desktop is that the desktop has nomodeset specified as a kernel boot parameter. (It won't boot without it.) Could this be interfering with automatic VT switching? Manual VT switching (e.g. Ctrl+Alt+F1) works fine.

Googling shows that you have the 1G iPod. For apps you need at least iOS 2. The iG can go as far os 3.1.3 that you get here:

Just be aware that there are presently not that many apps that work with a 1G with iOS 3.1.3

ISE v1.2 - Endpoint abandoned EAP session and started new

Hi.
I have lots of clients that are not able to log on to both wired and wireless networks, and they always fails with these errors.
5411 Supplicant stopped responding to ISE
5440 Endpoint abandoned EAP session and started new
This is with certificate authentication, both for client and for machine.
The clients are for the most part Windows 7.
We use both Cisco and Aerohive for wireless, and the switch I have tested with is a Cisco2960S
A few strange things:
It works perfectly for a lot of clients too, with the excact same configuration.
One PC I'm testing with works fine when authenticating via wireless, but when I plug it into the switch, I get these errors.
I seems to be a timeout of some kind, either to short or too long, but where?
In the Win7 supplicant?
In the switch?
In the Cisco WLC
or in the Aerohive AP?
I have spent hours and hours on this problem, but I can't make it go away, it is very exhausting.
There surely must have been others with the same problem?
Thank you.

Thank for trying to help out, but this is.. insanely vague.
How can i verify that NAS (the C2960S) is properly configured?
What timers are we talking about here? There are many to choose from..
The problem is still here, even with the latest patch 7 for ISE 1.2. It works fine on wireless, but not with wired, from the same computer. So it is logic to assume it has something to do with the switch.
This is the configuration from the switch:

Accidentally hit "Start New Session"... URLs in a crash report or something?

Ok, so I knew it would happen sooner or later, and just kept hoping it would be later...
I hit "Start New Session" instead of restore today... Looked around for previous solutions, and found no sessionstore.bak in my folder...
FF had crashed previously in the day, and I had hoped that would mean all the reloaded windows would be in today's history(some were a few months old), but that doesn't seem to be the case. (and I guess it doesn't help that my system is backdated(cause of 7100))
So I am wondering if there happens to be any sort of crash report archive that may happen to have the urls that were open in some way? Long shot I know but I figured I'd at least ask.

Hello.
Although possibly not related to your problem, I have to remind you that the version of Firefox you are using at the moment has been discontinued and is no longer supported. On top of this, it has known unpatched bugs and security problems. I urge you to update to the latest version of Firefox, for maximum security, stability, performance and usability. You can get it for free, as always, at [http://www.getfirefox.com getfirefox.com].
If you haven't closed Firefox since then, you can access ''about:sessionrestore'' to restore the lost session. If you closed Firefox in the mean time, I believe there's no way to get your session back. [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Session+Restore Session Restore] will always get your last session back, and solely the last session.
P.S.: I'm not certain ''about:sessionrestore'' is available in old versions of Firefox. Versions of Firefox before 3.5 are no longer supported, in any case, as I said.

5440 Endpoint abandoned EAP session and started new

We have an ISE deployment for testing.
This is running v1.2.0.899.
We have an auth policy configured for domain-joined computers for 802.1x and domain credentials:
     Condition: Wired_802.1X
     Allow Protocols: PEAP_CHAPv2
     Use: AD
This works, and authenticates both the machine (pre-login) and user (post-login).
However, I am seeing some errors int the Auth logs before the 5200 Authentication succeeded message.
These messages are not shown in the Cisco ISE Log Messages spreadsheet!
    5441 Endpoint started new EAP session while the packet of previous EAP session is being processed. Dropping new session.
    5405 RADIUS Request dropped
    5440 Endpoint abandoned EAP session and started new

I am seeing this error when a windows supplicant is booting up, we want them to use EAP-TLS. Before the GPOs has struck, they try to authenticate using EAP-PEAP on their own, which they aren't configured to do. Shortly after that, they send the EAP-TLS packets. After the supplicant has been authenticated, the 5440 error shows up but without affecting the authentication.
My guess is that this is the result of Windows behaviour. This generates a couple of "failed" authentications that in our case just confuse the costumer. I know this isn't an answer on your question, just my experience with the problem.

No.
You can authorize your computer for both accounts. Put all of the music on one computer. Sync your devices to that computer.
