Firefox Community Forum

I have no way to log in to my google accounts right now. On any google site, if I hit log-in it redirects me to this page:

https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/32050?hl=en

I've tried clearing my cache and cookies. My firefox browser is up to date. I tried disabling ad blocker and cookie auto-delete. Javascript is enabled and I even tried turning on that feature that prevents page redirects. I'm truly at a loss for what to do.

Hi a few weeks ago i had the problem that my firefox-stored-passwords are gone and there are files named logins.json.corrupt and logins.json-1.corrupt to -4 The in dir backup was also corrupt. File length 122 -123 kb all nulls. If i look at the dates first to last, they span two weeks were i didnt notice the problem. PC is always hibernated after work. Except for one which i imported just before from edge at the end of the two week span No problem: logins replaced by external backup as i found here at the forum.

But: How can Firefox produce multiple corrupt files without noticing me? (I have saved them for reference) In that two weeks span logins using firefox passwords obviously worked. (I dont remember the details)

Then some updates and reboots. No problem. But after work i do always hibernation

TODAY: PC didnt survive hibernation. logins and in-dir backup are corrupt again.

What about a) checking better if something is going wrong (obiously you do something because you rename the files for some reason) b) Noticing the user c) And how on earth this can go wrong in the first place.

Now for the obscure: Both times somebody has just before posted something against the greatest President of all time at Fux Nus using this pc. Backdoor possible?

Thanks

Edit: Using Windows, no other problems with storage on the 1TB Samsung ssd

I recently began having trouble logging into a retail web site that I have had an online account with for several years with no problems. One day, when I tried to log-in from the site's main page, I got nothing but a white screen with the following message:

Bad Request Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand. Size of a request header field exceeds server limit.

I tried the usual fixes: reboot my computer, re-set my password, etc. It called the site's tech support and they were mystified. They ended up deleting my account and sending me a special one-time activation code to set up a new account. But when I tried to set up a new account, I once again got the "Bad Request" message. I'm beginning to think it's a browser problem, but I can't say for sure. Any suggestions?

I should note that all of my other online logins are still working fine, and that I have made no recent changes in my computer hardware (I use a desktop) or peripherals. Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated!

Whenever I go onto a Microsoft website, I have a terrible (consistently mildly inconvenient) time signing in. For whatever reason, it always tries to sign in with my school account instead of my personal account, and I have to manually change to the account I actually want to use. I don't know why it keeps defaulting like this but it's very annoying, what can I do about it?

Hello. Firefox saves my password but not my email address on Royal Caribbean's website. I have tried everything possible but still will not work. I know how to save passwords and email address. All my other websites will open just fine, but not RC. I always have to type in my email address. Chrome does open up both my password and email address. I used AI and did everything it said to do with Firefox and still does not work. I have windows 11. If you have windows 11 try it and see if it works for you. Any help would be appreciated. Thank You...

So "delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed" is disabled, i even tried to reinstall the browser couple of times but sadly problem did not go away, every time i close my browser and open it back again i need to enter all my accounts and such again, which is obviously really not cool and id like my browser not to do that, on the internet all i found was about that one setting and that you should turn it off, but what do i do if its already off? ;_; Maybe there's some windows setting that keeps doing it i don't know... Extensions i tried to delete/disable didn't help either and at the moment of writing this i have no extension downloaded.

Norton recently issued a major update to their Norton 360 software. Since then the passwords that I saved in Firefox's password manager do not work. I go to the webpage and the passwords simply do not show up and cannot be used. Did Norton suddenly block the Firefox password and sign in function? Call me Puzzled.

Hi, this AM South Australia time, Firefox did an update again. Later I needed to sign onto Ebay, which required a Capcha verification. After several attempts failed. EBay's solution was to use a different browser. Edge worked fine. What has happened?

Hi! I'm running Linux Mint right now, but this also happened on Windows, I copied the profile from Windows so I suspect that is likely why.

When I go to about:logins, I see none of the accounts listed. Even when I input a search in the search box, nothing. I don't know what could be causing this. See attached screenshots. Don't worry, there's no concern of leaking account details, because they aren't showing up.

In trying to sync my bookmarks from my old PC to my new one (Win 11), every. single. time I log in to Firefox, and enter the emailed code I receive, to which I get an on-screen conformation that I've logged in AND an emailed confirmation that I've logged in, I am instantly logged back out- the little yellow triangle shows back up on my account icon. I have tried everything i can think of: I've made sure I'm not in private browsing mode, cookies are enabled, I've forced a log out of all devices, I've closed and re-opened Firefox, I've restated my computer, I've even uninstalled and re-installed Firefox in case there was some odd glitch....all for naught. Nothing I do helps. THEN to make matters worse I get the 15 min blockout to add to my frustration, because I've tried this too many times. All I want to do I sync my bookmakers to my new device....

Seems like every time I come here, not only do I have to re-login, but also do the 2-step verification. Is there any way to avoid all this?

I understand the need for security precautions, but my circumstances don't require 2-step verification or the re-login.

Please, PLEASE help! I've been trying for a week to log in to Google for my email, etc. with NO luck (I have Windows 10 and Firefox as my default browser). I've tried all three steps in Google's prompt-menu but no luck. PLEASE help, and SOON!

Hi, 2 days ago I switched from Chrome to Firefox. I buy a lot of stuff online from many shops, so I really need the autofill feature. I checked and it is available only in some locations, ex. France. Will it be available in Poland in about a month?

I have multiple gmail accounts and I don't always have them open on every tab. For some reason, every few days at random, whenever I swap to a different gmail account I keep receiving the message.

"The page isn’t redirecting properly

An error occurred during a connection to mail.google.com.

This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies."

I double checked if my cookies are blocked, and they werent. I am currently on standard tracking protection. I have tried removing my cookies and history and they work temporarily, but then the issue happens again after a few days.

I don't think my extensions are causing the problem either unless Adnauseum is changing something? I don't have any scripts running from Tampermonkey either.

Please help, this is getting irritating having to delete my history and cookies over and over again.

I am not able to login into my gmail account. Whenever I try to sign in, it shows the message as shown in the attached image. I have tried clearing all cookies and cache. Also removed all the extensions to see if it fixes it Please help me. I have Linux Mint 22 Cinnamon Firefox version 131.0.3 (64-bit)
