Keep getting popup that says "Firefox requires that you type your Kerberos password"

While using Firefox, a window will start popping up asking me to type in my Kerberos password. The fields they give are for Name, Realm and Password.
Does anyone know how to make this stop? If I keep clicking "Cancel," it will eventually stop popping up, but it keeps me from doing any work until it stops. Besides, it is not happening to my coworkers workstation with the same set up.

I have the same setup, and the same issue. I've gotten to the point where I don't use Firefox for anything anymore if I can help it, because I can't get rid of the popup. Clicking "Cancel" will only stop it for a while, but it'll eventually come back.
It's happening to my coworker as well, also on the same setup. Both of our issues started on the same day, maybe 3 weeks ago?

  • Keep getting popup coupons - says that it can be deleted by clicking coupon button on menu bar but I don't see one

    Recently started getting a lot of popup coupons - on the coupon it says that you can stop this by clicking on coupon button on menu bar but I do not see a coupon button on any of the menu bars. How do I delete this problem?
    Thanks

    Your Firefox and plug-ins are outdated and introducing security risks to you which can be a reason for unwanted popups. Outdated software can allow malicious people on the internet to take control of your machine without you knowing. Download a new version of Firefox. Uninstall the old version, then install the new version.
    After updating Firefox, to update your plug-ins, go to:
    https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/
    and find the ones to be updated, then update them.
    Safe browsing requires vigilance, and this includes making sure you have programs installed on your computer to protect you online, and that they are regularly updated.
    Steps to take:
    <br /><br />
    *Updating everything can be time-consuming, and if you're not sure what to do, use a program like Secunia's [https://secunia.com/vulnerability_scanning/personal/ Personal Software Inspector (PSI)] to help automate the process of updating all software on your computer.
    *Make sure Windows Update is turned on and set to automatic.
    *Always run antivirus software -- there are many free programs from vendors like Avast, AVG, TrendMicro, etc.
    *Make sure your Windows firewall is on (if you are not using a replacement firewall, if so, keep that one up to date).
    *Make sure your browsers are the latest versions.
    Once you get everything up-to-date, then install a couple of helpful add-ons to your new Firefox installation:
    <br /><br />
    *[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/adblock-plus/ Adblock Plus] will help block unwanted advertisements.
    *[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/noscript/ NoScript] will only turn on scripting (automated web-page actions) for websites that you trust.
    After you've updated everything and have your new add-ons installed, you'll be safer on the web and should not be bombarded by adverts.

  • Why do I keep getting a message saying: "Firefox.app wants to use the font "Bodonti SvtyTwo ITC TT Book" on the volume "Backup" ?

    Underneath this alert it says:
    "This font is not installed. Allow Firefox.app to use this font?"
    How can it use this font when it is not installed?
    Why does it have to keep asking me no matter how many times I push Allow or Don't Allow?

    You're welcome and thanks for confirming that the instructions worked.

  • I keep getting a message saying, "Firefox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page". This unwanted feature makes it hard to seamlessly flow thru a website. How do I delete this annoying feature?

    This feature prevents me from flowing smoothly thru the steps in a web site.

    See:
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > General : Accessibility : [ ] "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page"
    The setting in "Tools > Options > Advanced > General" is meant as an accessibility feature, as you can see by the label of that section, so that people with disabilities or people who use screen readers do not get confused and is not meant as a safety protection to stop redirecting.

  • I can not download the new version of Firefox. I keep getting a message that says "Firefox 5.0.1dmg could not be opened, because an unknown error occurred" HOW do I fix this?

    Every time I try to download the new version it just says I can not download the new version of Firefox. I keep getting a message that says "Firefox 5.0.1dmg could not be opened, because an unknown error occurred - Try saving to disk first and then opening the file"

    If you have problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
    * Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
    * Install the new version that you have downloaded
    Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.

  • When I try to open firefox, I get a message that says, "firefox is already running" and to close it or restart my computer when it is NOT running, so I can't get on the internet through firefox. What is wrong?

    The information box pops up when I click on my desktop icon for firefox as well as if I try to access it in other ways. I have restarted my computer. I have tried removing firefox and redownloading it. No matter what I do, it still gives me a box saying it is already running, but not responding. When I pull up my taks bar, it is not running! I can't close it as the box suggests because it is not open to do it. I just keep getting a box saying it is already running no matter what I try to do, even though it is not running.

    I have tried everything I could to fix this, but some things require actually being on Firefox, and since I cannot get on, I cannot click on the tabs to do it. I have even totally uninstalled firefox, and that has not fixed this. I still get the same message that firefox is running and I need to close it or restart (which I have also tried dozens of times). I have removed things like Java, and that has not helped either. If I cannot even get on line in firefox, how can I fix this. I am not crazy about using internet explorer, but right now, it is my only option. I even tried to start in safe mode, and the same message box pops up!

    The money you are spending is for iCloud storage. The warning you are getting is in reference to storage on the iPhone. You cannot increase the storage on the iPhone except to delete content on the device. If you want to take more pictures, you need to remove some content from the device to create room on the iPhone.

    OK, I think I have this solved. After reading my post over, I decided to rethink the problem. First thing I did was download Chrome and I tried using that and IE again and surprise! I was having the same problem on those browsers as well. So now we know it wasn't Firefox. I then figured maybe a slow computer meant a virus, so I ran scans. I've had both Avast and IOBit for months now and I've never had a problem with either of them before. Then I downloaded Malwarebytes and ran a third scan. They all picked some stuff up, but nothing serious. Then I tried disabling all the antivirus stuff and that didn't solve anything. But then I decided to keep Malwarebytes and I uninstalled IOBit Security and whammo - problem solved.
    I have no idea why out of the blue IOBit would be causing a problem like this so if someone knows, please let me in on the secret. Additionally, IE was working fairly well last night but not this morning. I also don't know why removing IOBit would take care of the nsAppShell issue, because supposedly, that's related to Firefox plug ins. And one more thing...when Comcast hooked my neighbor up to cable, they did it by putting a splitter on my line. They were messing about with the lines yesterday before I got on my computer last night trying to decide how to rerun them and today they did that, taking the splitter off my line and giving my neighbor his own line. That was finished about 30 minutes before I uninstalled IOBit. So....who knows?
    But I ain't about to look a gift horse in the mouth. I have my Firefox back and I am so sorry for bad mouthing you last night - I love you, Firefox!

  • HT204053 I downloaded icloud, and when i try to sign in with my Apple ID, I keep getting a prompt saying that my ID is valid but not an icloud account. So I'm unable to finish registering, how do I register if I can't sign in?

    I downloaded icloud because some of my music files got deleted, and I was hoping to be able to re-download them if I installed icload.Supposedly you can use your Apple ID to sign. Now when I try to sign in with my Apple ID, I keep getting a prompt saying that my ID is valid but not an icloud account. So how do I register if I can't sign in?

    You can't create an iCloud account on your PC.  You have to first create an iCloud account on an iOS device (iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch) or Mac (running OS X Lion or higher).  After creating the account on one of these devices you can use the ID to sign into the account on your PC.

  • I'm trying to import photos from my iphoto library, but keep getting a message saying I cant import from 7.1.5, that I need to upgrade to 7.1.5 or later.  But I have version 8.1.2.  I don't know what to do. I've been able to import in the past.

    I'm trying to import photos from my iphoto library, but keep getting a message saying I cant import from 7.1.5, that I need to upgrade to 7.1.5 or later.  But I have version 8.1.2.  I don't know what to do. I've been able to import in the past.

    Sounds like an issue with the iPhoto Library
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .
