I cannot log in to my YouTube account?

Since I installed Firefox on my PC more than a month ago, I cannot log in to my YouTube account, and cannot watch any videos there. I get an error message, telling me connection to this site (something like that) has failed, you can "retry" it again. Nothing come of it when I retry. This is very frustrating and I'm close to giving up on Firefox as a result. Please help.

  • I cannot log in from my google account from safari on iphone4

    I cannot log in from my google account from safari on my iphone 4. whenever i enter my username and password, it returns to login window again. please help!

    Hi CT,
    Thank you for your interest in my plight with the **** Safari 11.x Ever since the upgrade, this has happend. I don't have Gues User as it's singel user Latop only. Besides if some relaive want to use I have the security chain so they can'tlook at my Mail or use Safari to login automatically to some regular sites which the Security chain demand the Key first.
    I have never tried the Safe mode nor I knew about at all. Thank for this in advance. But what is difference .. may be some driver for some peripheral or plug -ins may be not loaded like Windows 7 ... the graphic is basic EGA resolution and a few othere things don't function. Right?
    What's the experience in Safe Mode for OSX Mac 10.6.8 ?
    I check my Intego FIrewall Virus Banner X6 and Little Snitch too to see if either one is the culprit ... but Nil find there too ?? I'm at a lost as to how to go about getting access to eBay Account and my Yahoo Account which I use for other webbased communication and registeration and never the Alias email of my current ISP.
    I shall do the Safe Mode thing and see what occurs ?

  • Cant log in to my youtube account?

    I cant log in to my youtube account using my details but i can log in from the safari browser but not with the application. I get a error saying authentication failed. How do i fix this?

    Hi lvhyflyer,
    Welcome to the forum! 
    What exactly happens when you try setting up your Cox account on your Nokia 1020? Do you get any error message? Also, do you have other email accounts set up on the phone? If yes, are you getting the same issue with the other accounts?
    Setting up an email address requires a mobile data or WiFi connection. Try testing it by visiting websites using the mobile browser. You may also try deleting the internet cache of your phone by going to Settings > Applications > Internet Explorer > delete history before re-setting up your Cox email.  
    If you have the right settings from your email provider, check this link for the steps on how to properly set up an email account on your Lumia 1020: Set up or delete an email account.
    Hope to hear feedback from you soon. 

  • Cannot log into my yahoo mail account from my iphone4.

    I cannot log into my yahoo mail account from my iphone4.  The password does not have any special characters.  On my PC there is no problem.
    Also cannot configure Add Yahoo mail.  I woould get a message, stating "Verification required.  Log into your Yahoo! account at www.yahoo.com".  when I attempt this I get "Invalid ID/Password".

    Tried eveyrhting and this was the way that fixed it for me --
    if you are having an issue adding the yahoo mail account on an iphone/ ipad / ipod.
    In the app store download the yahoo mail app for iphone (it works on ipads and ipods as well.. but there's only an iphone version).  After downloading it - open and sign in.  It's likely it will say that your yahoo account is 'locked' due to suspicious activity - follow the prompts to unlock it.
    Now add the yahoo account under the ipad mail settings.
    It should work in the regular ipad, iphone, ipod mail application now.
    Hope this helps

  • Cannot log in to BT Yahoo Account

    I have had my phone and broadband connected today and both are working, but I cannot log into the BT Yahoo account to get to emails and also it wont let me use them when I try and download the antivirus software.  I know the username and password are correct but it doesnt seem to recognize them.  Does it take a while for BT to activate the username after your broadband is turned on
    Thanks

    Hi kazzie13 and welcome
    Yes, there can be a delay from when your connection goes live to be able to access your email account. It IIRC can take about 24hours - depends on how quick the system plays catch up.

  • Cannot log in to new user accounts

    I am a long time Apple user and am completely confounded by a problem I am having creating new user accounts on my G4/400 PowerMac running OX 10.4.11. I've been attempting to setup some user accounts for my kids to use. I have no problems setting up the accounts but when I log out of mine and try to log in as them the login window shakes from side to side indicating an incorrect password. This is something that I had a problem a year ago and never solved and today I am trying once again with out success. I feel like I am doing everything correctly since I've been able to do this on my G3 iBook and MacBook.
    Here are a few things I've also done.
    -repaired permissions on the drive ( I have 2 in the machine right now but the other is just my iTunes LIbrary drive)
    -deleted the old user accounts that I setup but couldn't access.
    -tried setting up more new accounts
    -repeated the process several times without ever being able to successfully login to any of the new accounts that I created.
    Any advice to solve this problem would be appreciated.
    Thanks
    Chris

    Hi cc_mac,
    I don't know if you have solved this one yet, but I had exactly the same issue when I recently had a hard drive failure and had to re-install everything. I had copies of all my files, but when I went to set up the user accounts, I could create each account, but I couldn't log in.
    There is a simple solution, you will need to be in an admin account and you will need to use the command line, so open up a terminal window.
    Use the following command for each account you need to fix:
    sudo passwd <username>
    where <username> is the account name that you cannot currently log in to.
    You will need to enter your admin password to allow you to use sudo, so do that. Then you will be asked to type in the new password for the new account. Just to be absolutely sure, you will be asked to re-enter the new password, so do that, and you are done.
    Log out of your admin account, this should bring you back to the log in screen. Now, if everything has gone according to plan, you should have an operational user account.
    I'm not sure what the cause of this issue is but it might be some sort of permissions issue happening in the background. Nevertheless, manually setting the password this way seems to have fixed it for me. I sincerely hope this helps you too.
    Kind Regards,
    Mark D.

  • Windows 7 Home Premium - cannot log on to user's account (immediate logout).

    I cannot logon to my Windows 7 Home Premium user account. The system says "Welcome" for some short time and then immediately logs me out.
    I have found the following warning in system logs:
    The Windows logon process has failed to spawn a user application. Application name: . Command line parameters: c:\windows\system32\userinit.exe.
    I have found this article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929825 but it didn't solve my problem. Userinit and Shell registry keys are correct, and I still cannot log on using account that has no administrative permissions. I've also tried to create another
    user - with no effect. What can I do?
    (Sorry for my English, I'm still learning it.)

    Hi,
    The logon process is initiated by a file called userinit.exe which is located in System32 directory.
    If it gets corrupted or it gets deleted, the user will not be able to logon.
    Since you have checked the registry and it is right. Then try to copy this file to your System32 directory for test.
    Please firstly log on into with administrative permissions, and then run virus scan.
    Microsoft Safety Scanner
    http://www.microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx
    And then copy this file userinit.exe from C:/windows/system3 from a normally booting PC or from your install CD.
    Paste it in the affected PC in the same path.
    Also check if the issue occur in safe mode.
    Hope this helps,

  • HT2518 I cannot log into transferred migrated information account

    I have migrated information from my PC to my new mac by use of the Windows Migration Assistant.
    It created a new account for all my migrated information and I cannot log into it. It prompts me to change the password because it is expired and then prompts me to give my old password for the account before entering a new one. However, I have no idea what the "old" password would be. I have tried everything - including the old password from my account on my PC and my password from my account now on my mac and nothing works.
    What am I doing wrong?
    Note: I am completely new to the mac so please excuse me if this is something obvious.

    I don't do Windoze, but understand that you need to log out, then you'll get a prompt to establish a pasword for the new account.

  • After binding my MAC with Lion OS I cannot log on to any network accounts

    I bound my Mac with OSX 7 to a Windows domain.
    When I restarted the unit I cannot log onto any domain accounts.
    I looked for the option to allow network users to log in via Login Ooptions but it is not there.

    cor=el,
    First link. https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Web%20sites%20or%20add-ons%20incorrectly%20report%20incompatible%20browser
    Did not work.
    ◦general.useragent.override was the only one that had a "reset" option that wasn't greyed out.
    After following as much of the proceedure as I could the problem was still there.
    Of course, I never got an "incompatible browser" report. I got a missing USER AGENT report.
    However the second link: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Resetting_your_useragent_string_to_its_compiled-in_default
    was more interesting. I reset the about:config file.
    I then deleted my history and watched the useragent files in config RESET themselves to where they were before I reset them. I connected to a website successfully, then checked WHAT'S MY USER AGENT and it showed no User Agent again. I tried again to connect to the website and got the error.
    I returned to About:Config and again reset the general.useragent files. After a while they went back to their pre-reset state on their own. Something is resetting them.
    I disabled USERAGENTSWITCHER in FF (which had been installed in an attempt to deal with this problem) I rebooted FF and returned to About:Config where I realized any click after resetting the general.useragent list undid the reset exactly.
    I reset the About:Config and immediately closed FF. I then rebooted FF. It was as if I had never reset the general.useragent list.
    Something unknown is resetting the general.useragent to pre-reset conditions on my next action. I think the links SHOULD have worked except they are not, so the problem lies elsewhere
    The "default" user agent is correct....it just keeps disappearing.

  • I have a pc and cannot log in to my iCloud account

    I have a pc and cannot log in to my iCloud account

    Have you tried syncing with your own computer. The one you used to sync the photos to your iPad in the first place?
    Do you have a backup of your iPad on your own computer? Or in iCloud?
    If your iPad is stuck to the Apple ID and password used by the different laptop have the owner of that laptop remove your device from their iCloud account. They can go to iCloud.com on their laptop, enter their Apple ID and password and then remove your iPad from their account.
    Once you sign into your own Apple ID and password and then sign in to your iCloud account, many of your lost items should come back. Specifically these include your Contacts andCalendar entries.

  • Every time I boot up I receive the message that "iCal cannot log in to your iCloud account because you password is incorrect-" I do enter it correctly but the same error message comes up the next time the computer boots up.  How do I correct this issue?

  • HT4314 Can someone elaborate on if w have multiple people using the same account.  I cannot log in to my gamecenter account. How do I get into mine and not my brothers

    My two brothers and I share a apple account (as is reccomended by apple).  I updated m iPod touch to ios 5.1.1. When I came back I had been logged out of my gamecenter account. This is no problem but when I went to log in. I couldn't get into my account. I kept logging in to my brother gamecenter account. I have a lot of time invested into some of the games and I'd really like to play them but cant without a gamecenter account. If someone would help it would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Tracy,
    I don't suspect Malware yet, Id guess Disk corruption or failing Hard Drive with Files not found.
    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.

I don't seen how an account on your laptop is relevant to logging in to your oracle account on Linux. Even though you say your are not, I would say that you are using the wrong password.

  • I cannot log in to my admin account.

    I am the primary user of my MacBook Air and the sole administrator of the computer. When I opened my MacBook Air this morning, I was unable to log in to my account because the computer rejects my admin password. This password is the only one I have ever used on this computer. It has never been changed.
    I hope someone can help solve this problem because I cannot get past the login screen.
    Thanks!

    Okay, I was asking the question for Mom. Turns out she had the 'caps lock' button on the whole time she was trying to enter her password, thus the inability to log in. Doh!
    All is now fixed. Thank you!
    (And if anyone knows how to delete a question once it has been posted to the forum, I sure would like to know how to do that.)
