The Mozilla Firefox Support Forum software does not allow me to log-in. Why?

When I try to log-in to this web site with my longstanding credentials, no error message is displayed and the page "shakes" briefly like a car hitting a rut on a dirt road, and it appears that I am not, in fact, logged-in.
What is more basic and elementary than a log-on page, for crying out loud! One would think that with all of the (ostensibly) technically knowledgeable people involved with Mozilla and its software, that someone would be able to produce a user-friendly web site. Instead we get user-hostile nerdy geek stuff that might have been clever for 15 minutes 40 years ago.

So what's up with the "shaking" as some moron's idea of an error message that fails to effectively communicate any useful information so that the user can take measures to correct it or otherwise be able to log-in?
They're probably the same moron who decided that no one should ever be able to open more than one tab for the same web site page. Whoever decided to make that change in Firefox 4 obviously does not have a clue as to how to use the browser that s/he is changing. Why are they even on the team?
Everything that I read about Firefox 4 inspires me to re-consider using Google Chrome.
(P.S.: please look up the definition of "moron" and consider how I've used it before you take offense. The shoe fits.)

    You can try the standard fixes of reset, restore from backup and restore to factory defaults to rule out a hsoftware proble.  Frequently it is to to a problem with the eadphone jack and the solution is to replace the jack.

  • How to become a Mozilla Firefox Support Forum Moderator.

    I am very sorry to ask this here. I asked this here because I don't know where to ask. I am a Contributor in the Mozilla Support forum Top Contributors list. Many of the Top contributors are Moderators. I would like to be a Moderator too. However I don't know what to do to become a Moderator.

    Even if the need is there, you might need more total support postings before being asked. I was coming here to contribute for over a year and a half ''(the first year was very infrequent, like once a week for a few hours)'', and had more than 1000 support postings before I was asked. The "counter" was reset with the forum software upgrade back in July 2010, so a lot of us have far more postings than shown now. My total was a shade over 30,000 before, and IIRC, '''co-rel''' had in excess of 100,000 at the end of July. Other contributors counts I don't recall.

  • I installed the new Firefox version but it does not open on screen..

    It does not automatically open on completion of the install and it does not open when I click on the logo on my desktop or Quick Start bar. It looks like it is starting but nothing happens.
    I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling with the same result.
    When I try to uninstall I have to shut down first or the uninstall tells me firefox is running. Starter manager does not show this.

    Why not?  What happens when trying to use it?
    "Will not work" is useless when asking for help.  Without specifics, no assistance can be provided.

  • Forum software does not like Denim

    I was trying to post an answer in products and SKUs
    For the longest time, I kept getting an error.
    Sorry, this content is not allowed.
    Finally figured out that the offending word was a clothing that is typically blue and is made of Denim. It starts with J.
    Go figure...

    it is not just c -
    I have had to replace a-g here:
    as you are using apex 4, you can use "display and Save" type page items.
    for your item that is based on the database column, set the display as type to "display Only". Then go to the Settings section and you will now have Save Session State. Set that to Yes.
    Your dynamic action "True" action can still set the value of the item - the displayed version gets updated automatically at the same time.
    I have just made that change to my P8_eNaMe item on: http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=12983:8 - select an employee from the list and the dynamic action will update the hidden item *and* the display version

  • I want to reinstall firefox version 4; 5 does not allow google toolbar with credit card autofill

    I am using FF 5 and want to use google toolbar autofill for credit cards. Google tells me it does not support version 5 for this add on.

    Firefox 4 was replaced by Firefox 5 and is no longer supported.
    *Security and stability issues in Firefox 4 will not be updated in Firefox 4; '''those issues have been fixed in Firefox 5'''.
    *Only 2 Firefox versions are currently supported: Firefox 3.6.19 (support to end soon) and Firefox 5.
    *Firefox 3.6.20 (replacing 3.6.19) and Firefox 6 (replacing Firefox 5) are scheduled to be released on 08/16/2011 (subject to change).
    There are some suggestions in the articles that follow to replace some functions of the Google toolbar.
    '''<u>Google decided that they will no longer produce the Google Toolbar for Firefox beyond Firefox 4</u>'''. <br>
    Future versions of Google toolbar will only work with IE7-9. Google Toolbar is not available on any other browser, even Google's own browser.

  • On Att webmail the link for an open email does not allow closing of the email.

    When placing the cursor on the "x" to close the email, the cursor becomes inactive. This just started with the past week or so. Called Att because I thought it was a problem with webmail but they asked me to try Internet Explorer which I did and it does not have the problem. So I assume it started with an update to firefox.

  • Firefox 4.0.1 does not allow me to reply or write emails in Hotmail

    I can open Hotmail in Firefox 4.0.1 and open emails. I cannot reply to them: the reply email does not show a reply email address, and even if I enter it, I cannot type the body of the email in the textbox.
    The same happens with a new email: I cannot type a message in the text area.

    Hotmail is rolling out a server change at their end which might be causing this problem. Mozilla has spoken to them about it and they are trying to fix it. I won't be able to provide a time estimate by when it will be solved but hotmail/mozilla is certainly looking at this issue.
    I will let you know if get any updates!

  • PPC Mac OS 10.4.11 with Firefox 3.6.13 does not allow GoogleMap's right click pop-up menu. Any fix?

    Since the last Firefox update to v3.6.13 I do not get the right click menu in Google Maps. I am running a PPC iMac with OS 10.4.11 and this has always worked before. It works correctly in Safari.

    Hello,
    "I have trolled all the sites for safari problems on 10.4.11 and tried some of the things indicated"
    Before we make suggestions, what exactly have you tried so far?

  • Firefox will not open on desktop. It shows up on the task bar only and it does not allow me to restore or maximize. I reinstalled but the problem continues

    I cannot access Firefox on my desktop.

    It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full, unrestricted, access to install for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Firefox starts, but it does not allow me to type anything in the search bar or the web address bar. I have uninstalled and re-installed it already. Internet Explorer works fine. What can I do to fix this?

    It was working last night. However, in the middle of me talking to a family member in the messenger box of facebook. It just wouldnt allow me to type anything anymore. I closed it and re-opened it, but it didnt allow me to restore my sessions. I tried it again today, and it worked for a few seconds, albeit very slowly. Now, it just wont work. It opens to the Firefox homepage, but it wont do anything else.

    I let Firefox sit on my desktop for about five minutes, and it finall allowed me to use it. That is EXTREEEMELY slow. What is the problem?

  • Firefox 4 beta 2 does not allow typing of credit card security code when accessing Bank of America ShopSafe website.

    I reported this through Firefox's Feedback system. I also sent Feedback to Bank of America. I should note, I, so far, have had no other problems with Bank of America and Firefox 4, beta 2. I didn't have issues when I used the non-beta version 3 of Firefox prior to updating to Firefox 4. All I ask is that the issue be examined.
    Thank you!

    Firefox 4.0b2 isn't an "upgrade" or "update" right now. It is a pre-release version for testing the code that will become Firefox 4.0 - '''''5 or 6 months''''' from now. It's not ready for the general public, it is intended to be tested - only.
