I have to enter my master password multiple times (3) on startup. Is that normal?

Each time I startup Firefox I have to enter my master password three times. I don't think it's connected with any particular plugin etc. I have prety much the same plugins and extensions running on two machines and only have issues o this one.

You should check out the add-on "StartupMaster" to see if this addresses your use case.

Hope it helps,

Why do I have to enter the master password almost 20-times (no exagerration) when I open Thunderbird?

I use a master password for Thunderbird. I also use Lightning. In the past, I would need to enter the master password twice (once for Thunderbird, once for Lightning). Within the last couple of months, I am now prompted to enter the password nearly 20-times when I start Thunderbird. This is occurring on both my laptop and desktop computers. I can disable the master password altogether, but I do not like to do that with my laptop since it is often left unattended in my classroom. I have tried disabling various add-ons, eliminated the add-ons altogether, but I am having no luck getting rid of this problem.

I don't know what might have changed. Thunderbird will prompt for a password if it has failed, and is therefore assumed to have changed, or if more than one password is stored for an account.
Being prompted for the password twice or thrice set me off in search of a solution, and the one I found was this add-on:

which consolidated my two or three login prompts into one. It may help you, but the possibility of multiple stored passwords may still be at the root of multiple login prompts.

Why do I have to enter my master password 3 or more times before it's accepted???

When the Software Security window opens and asks for my master password, I enter the password, but when I submit the form, the password field is cleared and the prompt persists. Sometimes my password is truncated as I'm entering it, and I have to delete whatever is there and start over. Typically, I'll have to enter the password a minimum of 3 times, often more. It's infuriating!

Have to enter Wi-Fi password each time I turn my Apple TV "ON"

I do own the Apple TV for over a year now, however recently when I want to watch Netflix the Apple TV does not connect to my Airport Extreeme Wi-Fi (or Internet) without searching for the my network, selecting it and entering my Wi-Fi/Internet password. After entering password I get connected to the Internet until the unit is turned "OFF". Why is this happening and how can I connect to my network without searching for it and entering the password? This started happening recently and I did not make any changes or adjustments to the equipment. My "Roku" player which is connected to a differen TV in another room is playing fine.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Has anyone introduced another wifi network in the neighbourhood, or have you added any household equipment that might cause interference, have you tried another wifi channel.

Will I have to enter my Facebook password every time I use their app, and how do I with Firefox?

Password issues using FB.

When you open Firefox navigate to facebook.com and enter your username and password. Firefox should then place a drop down from the address bar asking if you want to remember the password. Accept the saving of the password.

HT201303 It keeps saying that I used a different computer to access my account. I haven't. How can I get it to stop this so I don't have to enter my card number every time?

It keeps saying that I used a different computer to access my account. I haven't. How can I get it to stop this so I don't have to enter my card number every time?

It also says that "your account information has changed. Please review your account and email address and approve them for use in the itunes store." It happens EVERY time I buy a new song, a new album, anything. Even if I buy an album and five minutes later, without closing itunes, buy another one, I have to go through this whole process. It's REALLY annoying.

HT1212 My iPhone is displaying a "iPhone is disabled" notification. It asked me to enter my password multiple times before locking me out.

My iPhone is displaying a "iPhone is disabled" notification. It asked me to enter my password multiple times before locking me out. Can you help with this?

Hey there!
Unfortunetly, in situations like this, the ONLY other way to bypass that four-digit passcode and/or a disabled device is to connect to a computer with the most recent version of iTunes (11.1.3), connect the device in Recovery Mode and restore it to factory settings. Restoring to factory will completely wipe the device, including the four-digit passcode.
The steps to do so are outlined in http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
(If there is any other way to bypass the passcode, it would have to be third-party, which I am not familiar with any program that can, sorry!).

HT1529 I have multiple users on my Mac and I was wondering how you tell the system to retain all the user names so they don't have to enter their email addresses every time ???

I have multiple users on my Mac and I was wondering how you tell the system to retain all the user names so they don't have to enter their email addresses every time ???

Email addresses into what?
Each user should have their own account and password to log in. Each is independent of the other. So for Mail each has their own Mail account if they set one up in Mail.
That's the way it should be set up. Are you using a single account and allowing multiple users to use that one single account? If so then in Mail at least you could set up individual mail accounts. But everything else in the system is shared.

Why must I repeatedly enter my master password after installing Firefox Sync and is there a setting to eliminate the need to do this?

Ever since I installed Firefox Sync I am repeatedly required by a pop-up box to enter my master password in whichever of my PCs I am using at the time. That is very annoying and I don't understand why the password is required after initial setup since the Firefox Sync Key is supposed to be unique.

WARNING -"You have entered an incorrect password 5 times. After 10 unsuccessful attempts your device data will be erased."

Dear All, Good day!I just I really need your help badly with regard to my phone. I used to charge the battery of my phone using USB cable on my laptop and today morning my phone is working just fine, but I was running out of battery so I tried to charge it. After few minutes, when I am about to use it, the lock code is not working anymore. I didn’t changed my password or done anything new and I am 101% sure that I have entered my password correctly. However, there’s a message showing : WARNING -"You have entered an incorrect password 5 times. After 10 unsuccessful attempts your device data will be erased." The screen shows Incorrect Password (6/10), but I am entering my correct code again and again and still not working. I restarted it many times and still showing the same thing. Now, I can’t get in and use my phone. I tried to call my number and it still reachable. Thank you so much in advance

To: JSanders, Hi there! thanks for spending time reading my queries and replying on it.YES! I am 101% positive with my security code. Thank God I was able to recover it and use my phone again. Just an input for those who might experience the same thing. Using Black Berry Z30, once you have the dialog box saying:WARNING -"You have entered an incorrect password 5 times. After 10 unsuccessful attempts your device data will be erased." and shows that you still have atleast 3-4 available chances to enter the code, just type "blackberry" thereafter another screen will pop-up and will ask to enter again your password. As long as you are 100% sure about your password, you'll be able to enter and get it back. Now, I am enjoying again my Z30.

Thank you any help would be help full as every time I log into Face Book for example I have to provide all the Information and this is a pain
Cheers Alex

The website may be using autocomplete=off to prevent Firefox from saving the name and password.
You can remove autocomplete=off with a bookmarklet to make Firefox save the name and password.
