Firefox won't keep me logged into Facebook, even in Safe Mode?

This problem has been bugging me, for God knows how long and I just can't get rid of it, unless I reset Firefox which is really not want I want to be doing just to get rid of this tiny, but irritating problem.
Firefox never remembers to be signed in still to Facebook, even in Safe Mode without extensions.
How can I get rid of this problem? If it isn't possible without resetting, I'd like a simple and concise tutorial on how to get all my extensions and settings back (however obviously not the one that keeps causing this problem). I've been using this Firefox profile for at least a good few years and it's all set up properly for my personal use. Thanks.

firefox is able to keep different cookie settings on a per-site basis. those probably got cleared when you forgot the history about facebook. you can inspect the current permissions while you're on a site when you right-click it, go to ''view page info > permissions''. if you haven't changed that yourself intentionally, then i also don't really know what might have caused that - maybe an addon was interfering?

Privacy settings have not changed, but Firefox 18 is keeping me logged into facebook

I work for a FB game developer, and as a result I need to wipe cookies/cache in my browsers frequently. I have had Firefox set up to delete cookies when Firefox closes. This prevented me from staying logged into Facebook after closing Firefox. After upgrading to Firefox 18.0.2, I remain logged into my Facebook account even though I have not changed the cookie settings, nor have I selected the "keep me logged in" option on Facebook. Why has this behavior started and how do I make it stop if my settings haven't changed?

I set them both to 2, and it didn't make a difference.

Help For Newbie!!! Won't let me log into Facebook, etc!!!

I am new here so if this is in the wrong area I am sorry.... Anyways I deleated my History/Bookmarks manually through bookmarks in Safari two days ago, and I was in Pizza Hut with the family yesterday and tried logging into facebook and other "Log In" sites and it wouldn't allow me to do so.
It would "Log" me in and say I was signed in successfully then it would direct me back to the main page because I wasn't logged in successfully.
All help in this situation is greatly appreciated.

Same thing happened to my wife the other day. Just re-install the facebook app again.

Firefox will not keep me logged into my yahoo mail or yahoo home page

I can log into my homepage, then go to a news article or something else, hit the back or home button to go back to my home page and it wants me to log in again. Same thing with yahoo mail. This happens about 60% of the time. Sometimes it does take my back to my home page or mail accoount.

Hi,
You may generally have to '''Accept cookies from sites''' as well as '''Accept third-party cookies''' for some sites in '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Options''' > '''Privacy'''. If the problem persists please also check if any installed extensions in '''Tools''' > '''Add-ons''' may be causing the issue. You may have to go into the settings of the extension.

Firefox 5.0 won't load or stream YouTube videos, even in safe mode

Since we updated to Firefox 5.0 last week, ALL YouTube pages now come up with a black box that doesn't load anything in, whereas the rest of the browser page looks normal. We tried opening in Firefox Safe Mode and the same thing happens. The YouTube vids stream as normal in our other browsers. Using Mac OS 10.6.7.

Is Fixed! Someone suggested clearing the Firefox cache 9 (Preferences / Advanced / Network / Clear Now) and and after doing this now we can stream on the YouTube site as normal.

Firefox interface lags badly (switching tabs, opening menus) , even in safe mode.

Switching between tabs, playing GIFs, playing YouTube videos, typing text and opening the Firefox menu are sometimes laggy.
For example, sometimes when I click on a tab to view it, there will be a delay of a second before its contents are shown.
I tried Google Chrome and it doesn't have this lag. My computer is pretty powerful.
I tried safe mode, but the problem was present there, too.
I tried clearing the cache, but no luck.
I'm not sure what else to say, so if you would like more information, please just ask! Thank you.

Hi amacfie,
Have you looked at our [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-slow-or-takes-too-long-start performance troubleshooting section]? There is a lot of good information in there that should help.
Hopefully this helps!

Firefox keeps freezing with new tab even in safe mode

Firefox keeps freezing, so there's no chance of even a crash report, I can only get out via TaskManager/End process. I usually have dict and thesaurus open while writing, usually with second tab my browser is a still.
It's very annoying as it's also stuck on my screen for a while so I can't continue to work.
I really need that to work or I have to switch to a different browser!
Thank you.
Here are crash reports while I still got there:

There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

Mac safari won't keep my logged in

My mac's safari will not keep me logged into sites that I clicked "keep me logged in" with. It used to but once I downloaded the newest software for my Mac it doesn't anymore. Instead, when I open a page it'll keep my username and password in the given boxes but I have to click sign in every time.

i'm running windows xp but i think i found the equivelant file in C:\Documents and Settings\...\Application Data\Apple Computer\Preferences
i deleted this and it appears to have reset safari but once i close the broswer, it still won't keep me logged into twitter. thanks for your help, i hope you have more ideas lol

I have to tell Firefox that I am logging in from "home" every time I log into Facebook. Firefox will not let me unclick ""Send me an email" under Login Notifications in Facebook "My Account" settings. Why? (to both questions)

I have to tell Firefox that I am logging in from "home" every time I log into Facebook. Firefox will not let me unclick ""Send me an email" under Login Notifications in Facebook "My Account" settings. Why? (to both questions)

It started last week - I normally use Chrome to play my games in Facebook - but I started getting "Sorry, this feature isn't available
right now"..... When I used IE..... no problem - a friend said to install Foxfire, which I did, but I made the mistake of having my bookmarks and whatever transferred from Google as it is the browser I used most often and it has all my bookmarks, but
now it does the same thing when I try to log into Facebook. - I have no problem with any other website. I deleted both Google and Foxfire and tried to start over - I cleared History and checked all the boxes hoping that this would help - but it did not.
I can't understand why I can get in with IE, but not Google or Foxfire. Do you have any suggestions.......
On Friday, it started working again - and everything was fine. But on Sunday evening I ran the History Clean in Google and when
I went to log back in, I couldn't and got the same "Sorry" message and has stayed this way since.
I ran a Norton scan of the entire computer, a Hitman scan, a CCleaner scan, ... all to no avail. Problem still exists.
I tried to run a restore program prior to the problem, but I am getting error messages like mad.
there has been two Windows Updates in this time frame and I don't know if this has anything to do with it or not - but my Restore program does not work.
NYCsDancer -- if its working via Internet Explorer, we can't help you much. Most of the time it has to do with Cookies, or your Java Version. I'd reach out to Google's forums for assistance with Chrome
https://support.google.com/chrome/?hl=en#topic=3227046
or Firefox support for assistance with Firefox

What does it mean when I log into Facebook and a pop-up comes out saying "[JavaScript Application] Error: jQuery("#fb_menu_account a", document).attr("href") is undefined"?

What does it mean when I log into Facebook and a pop-up comes out saying "[JavaScript Application] Error: jQuery("#fb_menu_account a", document).attr("href") is undefined"? I would like to know what I can do to fix this. The site ends-up running slow. I have tried clearing the cookies and cache, but that doesn't work.
== URL of affected sites ==
http://www.facebook.com

Does is still happen in Firefox Safe Mode. See [[Safe Mode]].
If so, it's probably being caused by an add-on.

Getting can't connect with a secure connection when trying to log into Facebook

I keep getting a message when I try to log into Facebook using Safari that it can't establish a secure connection to the server. Any ideas on how to fix this?

What did FaceBook say when you ask their technical support?

Can't log into Facebook in Settings

I can't log into Facebook when I try to do it in the Settings (for FB integration). It worked fine on my iPhone, but my iPad 2 won't do it.
I enter my username and password and tap Sign In, and up top it says "Verifying" with the little "I'm thinking" wheel to the left of that, but that's all it does. It's stuck. No error messages, nothing.
iPad 2 running iOS 6 over wifi.

OK, I changed from my Facebookuser name to my gmail account name and then it worked.
