I am trying to sign a certificate (using Mac) and Firefox will not accept the master password.

The certificate is used to authenticate my identity.

It rejects it every time - returning the certificate box with the password space blank. I have seen a few questions about certificate problems in Firefox a few months ago - are these going to be resolved? Any ideas of a workaround in the meantime?

Hi, I had the same problem, and I read somewhere that according to a mozilla knowledgebase article, the master password is a requirement for importing certificates (although the corresponding KB page is now unavailable)

I tried the following and it worked for me: - export the certificates to the desktop - delete the certificates from firefox - set a master password on firefox (preferences - security - use master password) - import the backed up certificates

You should now be able to sign. Hope this helps

Thanks a lot, that did work - at first I hadn't realised about the Master Password option at all. My fault. Thanks for your solution.
