Why was I kicked out of my FireFox Sync and asked to change my password?

I logged into my Desktop PC and found that I had been kicked out of my FireFox Sync account. The strange thing is I don't recall changing my password, in fact I had to log in with my laptop and change the password and then link the desktop and laptop again. I had not turned that PC on in a week or two.
Was my account just used by someone else and they changed the password or did something else happen? Please help, I am worried. This occurred about a week or two ago and I didn't make a screenshot of it.

Type '''about:sync-log''' in the URL bar and hit Enter; on the device where you received that "password" message.
Review the date on the logs, and view the log which relates to the time that you received that message.

  • Why am i kicked out of my wireless network everytime my computer sleeps or shuts down?

    why am i kicked out of my wireless network every time there the machine goes to sleep or when i shut the computer off. is there a setting where i can stay logged-in to my wireless network without having to select it every time?
    Running Lion 10.7.5
    very frustrating.
    i hope the solution is not to buy Mountain Lion. that would make me angry.
    thanks for your support.

    Since it's a new machine, contact Apple Service, iMac Service or Apple's Express Lane. Do note that if you have AppleCare's protection plan and you're within 50 miles (80 KM) of an Apple repair station, you're eligible for onsite repair since yours is a desktop machine. That also might apply to newly bought ones inside the first 90 days.
    FWIW, IMO, the AppleCare extended plan's the cheapest insurance you can get for your new desktop machine.

  • Why did my itunes card get deleted from my account when i changed my password

    why was my itunes card deleted from my itunes and app store when i only changed my password

    An account's balance should not have been affected by changing your password. You've tried logging out and back into your account on your phone and/or computer's iTunes and seeing if it then shows, and checked your account's purchase history e.g. you didn't have any auto-renewing subscriptions or pre-orders due that might have taken the money : See your purchase history in the iTunes Store ?
    If logging out/in doesn't get it to show and you can't see any purchases that might have taken it then try contacting iTunes Support and see if they can help with where it went : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page,

  • HT5622 Why I'm I being asked to change my password

    Why do I keep being asked to change my password?

    Hi Again cor-el,
    I now understand the reason behind the green lock icon, it is for a extra level of security with sensitive sites, which this particular site is.<br />
    Having said that, if I follow the instructions, and "temporarily remove autocomplete=off", when I load the site in the future, is the situation going to be: when I load the site it will automatically have already loaded my user and password, so I don't have to do that function? If so, I really don't want that to happen. <br />
    With my old computer, when I clicked the bookmark for the site, and entered the site, I just had to click on my user name and firefox entered my user and password. Evidently, firefox remembered those parameters for that site, and all was well. Definitely made that procedure easier. <br />
    By doing the procedure in autocomplete=off, will this happen? Or, will the situation be, when I click on the bookmark and load the site, both my user and password will be automatically entered? If that were to occur, I would be giving up too much security for that site. <br />
    I just would like my new computer and firefox, to enter that web site (scottrade) like it did before, where all I had to do was click on my user and enter the first character of my user and firefox filled in the of my user and password. Thank you, cor-el.

  • HT5622 I've changed my Apple ID email and its all verified ok but on my iPhone 5 every time I go to update an App or buy an App it comes up with my old Apple ID and asks me for a password. Why doesn't it have my new ID because on Apple ID link it does?

    I've changed my Apple ID password and when I go to the Apple ID link the changes have been emailed and are all verified. However, when I try to do something with an App or iTunes  etc on my iPhone 5 it still comes up with my old Apple ID and asks me for the password and I don't have the option to overtyped the Sppld ID section with the new email I've set. I can't update Apps or buy Apps because of this. Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Sign out and back into your apple id from Settings>iTunes and App stores>(Your apple ID)>Sign Out and then sign in again with the new address. Close app store from running in the background (or restart the phone if your unsure how to do this). If when trying to update any apps they are still asking for the old apple ID, delete and re-install those apps.

  • Can I have a single sign on pass word and ID for FireFox Sync and Accounts?

    I can't keep my ID's and Password's organized for Firefox Accounts, Firefox Sync and Mozilla. Some how I've used two different email accounts and they have different passwords.
    I'm using a MacBook with OS X 10.1.1 and FireFox 34.0

    Firefox Accounts and Sync do use the same email address (username) and same password. It's one service - Sync uses Firefox Accounts for web login.
    As far as "Mozilla", do you mean this forum?
    You may use the same email address and same password, but the various Mozilla websites and services do use separate registration and login databases; none are connected with other websites.

  • I installed Firefox sync and then used iphone app called FireFox Home and I can syncronize history, tabs and bookmarks. But I am NOT able to syncronize passwords from Firefox in my Macbook to FireFox Home on iPhone !

    I installed Firefox sync and then used iphone app called FireFox Home and I can syncronize history, tabs and bookmarks. But I am NOT able to syncronize passwords from Firefox in my Macbook to FireFox Home on iPhone so I am very terrible to input my IDs and Passwords with my hands on FireFox Home when I log into Facebook, Twitter etc... Is it issue or something like that? If you have some solutions to make it clear, can you tell me how to syncronize memorized IDs and Passwords for the webs. Thank you.

    You can look in Tools > Options > Sync

  • Firefox sync and ccleaner

    I just started using Firefox sync and I have already begun to run into a problem. Whenever I put in all my log in information and product key into firefox sync, run sync, close firefox and run ccleaner, I always have to re-enter my sync data when I open firefox. Could someone help me with this issue? Thank you.

    In CCleaner, under Application settings, Firefox/Mozilla, do no clean ''saved Passwords'' and ''Site Preferences''.

    1. Reboot and immediately hold down command and R (two keys).
    2. When you see the screen shown on this page, select Disk Utility and continue.

    Why i don't receive emails from apple ? I want to change my password and i don't receive any email :| What can I do?

    The email is sent to your recovery email. That email is not the same as your Apple ID. If you haven't assigned one with your Apple ID do so here > https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/

  • Why was I inexplicably shut out of my apple ID and forced to reset my password when trying to download an app.?

    I was in the process of attempting to download an app. On entering my usual password, I was locked out with a message that for security reasons I had to reset my password. I am pretty sure that I entered the password correctly, but surely, even if I did not, I don't expect to have to change my password each time.
    any thoughts?

    Hard to say what happened.  You might want to contact iTunes support and ask them.......
