If I try to log in to my Hotmail account in Firefox, Hotmail says my Hotmail account doesn't exist, while I can problemlessly log in in other browsers

When I open Hotmail in Firefox and try to log in, Hotmail says my account doesn't exist. But I can problemlessly log in in other browsers, so I'm sure there's no problem with my account. Further, I'm absolutely sure I didn't misspell anything. Before this problem occured, I've always been able to log in to my Hotmail account in Firefox. I've already tried clearing my cookies and history, but it still doesn't work.

  • I tried to backup my bookmarks to move them to new computer, but it didn't work. I deleted the moved folder and now when I try to opn Firefox it says i must first close the existing firefox process or restart the system.

    I removed and reinstalled Mozilla and I still get this message. I am assuming that when I deleted the folder that had the bookmarks, something got screwed up in the program. I don't understand why completely deleting the program, downloading it again, and reinstalling it, does not resolve the problem? Also , I want to know how to do this properly, so that I can have my Favorites on the new computer.

    Sounds like a "hang at exit" problem. There are several possible causes for that error. See:

    * You may need to try Firefox Safe Mode
    ** You may need to use '''Safe Mode''' to locate the problem: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode
    **Firefox Safe Mode is a diagnostic mode that disables Extensions and some other features of Firefox. If you are using a theme, switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes '''<u>before</u>''' starting Safe Mode. When entering Safe Mode, do not check any items on the entry window, just click "Continue in Safe Mode". Test to see if the problem you are experiencing is corrected.
    ** If the problem does not occur in Safe-mode then disable all of your Extensions and Plug-ins and then try to find which is causing it by enabling '''<u>one at a time</u>''' until the problem reappears. '''<u>You MUST close and restart Firefox after EACH change</u>''' via File > Restart Firefox (on Mac: Firefox > Quit). You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window.

  • Yahoo webmail does not login with safari. Will log in with other browsers.

    I can not log in with mail.yahoo.com on safari. It will not take PW. I installed dolphin and opera. I can access the site with no issues with them. I have tried "Clear cookies and data".
    Any ideas? Can I reinstall safari somehow?

    Hello MountP,
    The best way to take care of that is to either start fresh on your library or import the files that are already on your computer. The following article will assist with that.

  • I can't seem to log into my yahoo email though Firefox, I get an error message saying Bad Request Snytax. I can login just fine with other browsers.

    I have been trying to login to my yahoo email for two days without success. I get the same error msg "Bad Request Syntax." I can login just fine in other browsers. Clearing my cache and reseting Firefox did not help. Unsure what else to do.

    This can be caused by corrupted cookies.
    Clear the cache and cookies only from websites that cause problems.
    "Clear the Cache":
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
    "Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
    If clearing cookies doesn't work then it is possible that the <i>cookies.sqlite</i> file that stores the cookies is corrupted.
    Rename (or delete) <b>cookies.sqlite</b> (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete other present cookies files like <b>cookies.sqlite-journal</b> in the Firefox profile folder in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.

  • HT201356 I have accidentally deleted my alternate iCloud (email) address. Are there any possibilities to retrieve it back because my iPad is connected to that email address, and now, I can't log out from it on my iPad, because it doesn't exist?

    I have accidentally deleted my alternate iCloud (email) address. Are there any possibilities to retrieve it back because my iPad is connected to that email address, and now, I can't log out from it on my iPad, because it doesn't exist.
    I have alternate icloud email attached to my iPad and I accidentally delete it from appleid.apple.com. And now I can't log out that iCloud account because it doesn't exist and it can't recognize my password.

    If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple IDand that ID is a previous version of your current ID, not an entirely different one.
    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details and some other circumstances.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device. It may take a short while to remove the account.
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

  • I have iPhone 5s with an Apple ID which is different from iPad I'd. This is because I changed my primary e.mail address as it would not work on new phone. Every time I try to log in to icloud or apple I have to change my password. This is EVERY time

    I have had an iPad 2 for 10 months with Apple ID. Now I have new iPhone 5s which will not allow me to use my old e.mail address so I had to change it also in apple account. Now, every time I try to use apple or icloud the sign in comes up with the "old" ID which has been changed - I therefore cannot login, have to reset my password but once logged out and try to log back in again it still has my old id displayed - what can I do?

    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")

  • When i try to log on to Oracle it gives an error TNS:no listener, WHY?

    hi guys,
    WHen i try to log on to the Oracle 8i server using the user: SYSTEM and password: manager, it gives an error
    ERROR:
    ORA-12541: TNS: no listener
    why this occurs and how do i fix the problem? please give me step by step instructions TY :)
    Message was edited by:
    user502781

    ORA-12541 ...
    - The client is requesting connection to a service.
    - The service is derived from the alias used in the connection. For example, @orcl ... orcl = alias.
    - The alias is used to look up the host, listener port and service in the tnsnames.ora
    The listener is on the same machine as the database. The listener must be up and listening on the port the client want to use.
    If the listener is not up, there wil be an "ORA-12541: TNS: no listener" error;
    If the listener is listening on the wrong port, there wil be an "ORA-12541: TNS: no listener" error;
    If the client is asking for the wrong port, there wil be an "ORA-12541: TNS: no listener" error.
    To start the listener in Windows, go to the Control Panel > Administration Tools > Services and ensure the Ora?????Listener is started.
    To verify the listener is up, open a command box, and type 'lsnrctl status'
    To see what the client is expecting, on the client machine open a command box, and type 'tnsping {alias}' where you replace {alias} with the alias to be used in the connection.

  • The message "A problem has occurred trying to process your request. Please try again later. We apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused." is displyed when I try to log on to my internet banking. Please can you tell me why?

    Since upgrading to the latest version of Firefox, I'm now getting the message "A problem has occurred trying to process your request. Please try again later. We apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused." when I try to log onto my internet banking site. This occurs after going thru the first two steps of the login process. I don't get this problem when I login to all my other bookmarked sites, or when I use Internet Explorer. I'm using Windows XP. Any suggestions? (Note: I've just reloaded version 6 of Firefox, but it's not made any difference.)

  • When I try to log on to my ichat I get the error message "An undefined AIM socket error has occurred.". How do I resolve this?

  • HT2589 when I try and log in my i-tunes account or my app store account on my i-phone it says "this apple I.D has not yet been used on the i-tunes store" it gives me 2 optins "cancel" or "review" I press review, enter my bank details but they decline..why

    Hi can anybody help or advise me? I've recently bought the i-phone 4s, I've set up my apple I.D and password but everytime I try and log in it says "this apple I.D has not yet been used on the i-tunes store" I click "review" follow the instructions and agree to the terms and condition's, enter my bank details but it declines every time? I've tried both my accounts and its declined both, this stops me from logging in so I can't download anything for free or buy anything, my sister had the option of skipping the bank details part when she created her apple I.D and just enters her's when buying something, why do I not have that option?? And why is it declining my bank details...please HELP!!!!!

    The details I'm entering are correct, I choose visa as my card type, enter my card number, enter my expiry date and my last 3 digts on the reverse of the card, enter my address and zip code plus my home telephone number, click continue and it says "the payment method you have selected has been declined, please enter another payment method". I've lost count how many times I've tried, I've typed my details in slowly making sure I put them in properlly and it still declines it, I've even tried makeing a new apple I.D and when I get to the bank details part it declines it again so I am forced to press cancel and all details are not saved so its just like I'm hitting a brick wall, its ******* me off!!! I can't even download any of the free app's because to do so you must log in but when I do it says "this apple I.D has not yet been used in the i-tunes store" review my details and can't get past the bank details part. So doesn't log me in, I'm honestly out of ideas

  • My original Apple ID is giving me grief when I try to log on to Support- Communities.  Can somebody help?

    I had to create a new email address, then using the new email address I created this Apple ID to log in here.  But my normal email address (and original Apple ID) is giving me nothing but grief when I try to log on to support->communities.  On my iPhone: [ When I type in my normal email address and password, I'm taken to another login page that says in red letters "Please sign in again.  For added security, we need to reconfirm your Apple ID."  When I re-enter my password, I get an error "Safari cannot open the page. The error was: "cannot decode raw data". " ]
    On my iMac running Firefox, same story but the error is something about unable to load data because of an unsupported compressed format, and it says to contact the web administrator (which would be Apple) - when I press the button "try again" it gets me to the appleid.apple.com page that asks me to pick a user name (to be seen by other members of the community).  From there I also run in circles (see below):
    Telephone tech support keeps sending me to appleid.apple.com which also gives me nothing but grief:  it asks me to pick a user id (a nickname to be used in the forums) but when I do, I get the error message in red font telling me that there is already somebody using my Apple ID (which is of course my email and therefore is my account)  -- so why are they asking me to pick a user ID if I already have one?  This is very frustrating.  When I call and talk to tech support, they try to get me to buy extended service to help me log in, but the reason I'm trying to log in to support->communities is because I can't afford extended service.  The people patient enough to stay on the phone tell me to go to iTunes and fill out a support request, but there's no option to fill out a support request for website difficulties.  Please help!
    I think this is probably because my original Apple ID was "mtalldude" and instead of creating a new account when Apple switched to using email addresses as Apple IDs I just changed my ID to my email address. My original ID may be ten or twenty years old. I don't mind saying that my new login id (the one I'm having trouble with) is sal_mander at hotmail in case a website administrator is reading this and can help me and needs this info and can reset whatever is broken and is not allowing me to pick a user name.  Please don't spam me fellow humans!

    Thanks for the flag J.K. - they contaced me and solved my problem.  On this account (which I created just to ask this question), I log in with my email rather than my user name (mtalldud). On the account that I was having trouble with, they told me to use my user ID instead of my email to log in and it worked. This is a bit confusing and seems a bit inconsistent but at least I don't need this temporary account any more to get into this community and find answers!
