Firefox Support Forum

first i was thinking that this is only a Firefox addon issue (CookieMaster), but it might actually happen with other browsers too... although maybe it's still related to cookies only?

when i do some posting on some random forums, it always totally randomly cuts off half of the posts and even adds totally random phrases from the same post into totally random places, so the post gets either cut off or really hard to even understand because all of the text scrambling in it...

and that's not even all - now i edited some old wordpress post and then noticed that it has done the same exact word scrambling in it... so it's really hard to understand what is being said in 1 sentence again...

so why is it happening and how can i fix it?

(Opera and Chrome browser don't even allow to log in or do some other editing stuff in wordpress lol)

I keep getting this error when trying to login to zoosk.com: The page isn’t redirecting properly An error occurred during a connection to www.zoosk.com. This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.

I went and deleted the cookies on this site.

I also went in my privacy and security under the cookies section and I added zoosk.com to ALLOW cookies for this site.

I tried logging in to the site again and I am still getting this same error.

I have no idea what to try next to solve this problem.

Sure would appreciate if anyone can help?

Thanks!

All website now require you to accept or select what cookies you will accept. Older versions did this with no problem but version 76.0.1 64 bit does not after auto update. Every site requests cookie selection or agreement everytime Firefox is opened. Nothing is being saved

Well, for the past month or so Firefox protection is partially enabled in spyware blaster and would like to know how to fix this problem. I click enable all protection then 5 minutes later is only partially enabled again. please help.

I have been trying to log into facebook and I keep receiving this message (Problem loading page-This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.). It happened a couple of times, I checked the privacy setting, I tried to delete "recent history" , then clear all cookies and manage privacy setting and it worked but after a couple of days there we go again. It has been a nightmare frankly, I do not know what else to do. Please help!

A games site that I like requires an activation code to get in, but after a certain number of uses of the activation code, the code becomes invalid and I can't get in. The site uses permanent cookies to get past the activation code requirement (a bookmark won't do it). How do I allow permanent cookies for this one particular site? I don't want to disable tracking on any other site, just this one. Thanks! Kathy

Hi there, I've encountered an issue with a couple of PC Desktop Apps (Microsoft Teams, Kindle for PC), where there is a pop-up window to log in, but I cannot because it says that cookies are disabled. I have enabled cookies and pop-up windows and can log in to both my Amazon and MS accounts (thought my work authorisation website) without any problems at all just using the normal Firefox window, but the small log.in pop-ups just keep demanding cookies and saying they don't have any....

I am on Windows 7 using the latest Firefox update - and yhelp woul be greatly appreciated!

When I go to archive.is for example I get error 1001 Ray...etc. Screenshot below. I googled this problem and it took my to cloudflare's support where user "domjh" shared this support page: https://support.cloudflare.com/hc/en-us/articles/200168436. But this doesn't help, as you have to login to your cloudflare account, which I have never had. This problem only occurs with firefox. I have tried other browsers and can access archive.is without a problem. Everything is normal. Now I cleared my cookies (which is when this error happened afterwards) and unplugged my modem for a few minutes (about 15) in order to get a new IP address (someone somewhere I read mentioned that might help). This didn't do anything, same error as before. I also went to about:preferences#privacy and clicked "standard" (for some reason it was at custom and had been blocking cookies, not sure why, I didn't do that). Then I went to cloudflare support, but you have to have an account to ask questions. I set one up with my email, but then you have to add your website. I HAVE NO WEBSITE! So I don't know what to do, and this has never happened before. This is not a problem on other devices, or on this computer with other browsers. I am using a windows 10 PC and have a dynamic IP address. Please help.

Hello,

I've been using the 2-step verification method with my Gmail account and , having set cookies' lifetime to session only, wanted to keep the setting that allows my PC to log in without checking the smartphone every time.

First I thought to add an entry to the exception list with the accounts.google.com domain, but I want to log in my account with my password whenever I restart Firefox so that's a no go.

So I was thinking that if I kept the specific cookie from accounts.google.com that identifies my PC as a trusty device (which I believe is called SMSV) then that would be it, though perhaps its not that simple. In any case, if that was indeed a solution, how would you guys select only a few cookies from the same site in Firefox? Is it possible?

Hello,

so well, my cookies that I send from API backend 127.0.0.1:8000 to a cross domain frontend https://bd1.advena.me are not stored in Firefox.

But on the other hand, they are tough in Chrome.

Normally in Mozilla we have Logins n password, where we can find all the passwords saved under it. In case, we forgot the password we can click on show passwords for that particular n get it. But my case, Udemy website is auto login and no data stored in regarding username n password. Bad part is the outlook.com email id also i have lost it. If i give forgot password from Udemy website, it will land into outlook.com email but i forgot that password. Any way to retrieve it since, Mozilla will be storing it somewhere. Can any one help me regarding this.

What I want to do is limit the cookies that are allowed to the sites that I visit the most, then delete the rest on browser exit.

That way, I get logged in automatically to my favorite sites, then f* the rest of those cookies.

My plan is to:

1) Manually delete all cookies, 2) Quickly visit and sign in to all my favorite websites, 3) Add permissions to allow only those cookies that were added, 4) Then set the "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed" checkbox

Unfortunately, there is no easy way to do 3) because the Manage Data and Manage Permissions dialogs don't talk to each other.

It would also be nice to be able to specify a domain or general expression for allowed cookies, such as *.bankofamerica.com

I guess what I am asking for is better tools to add allowed cookies from existing cookie lists instead of the very blunt tools we have today.

I am using Firefox v 75.0

Thank you.

as i said...every single time i clear my cookies and cache in firefox and then go to log onto one particular site...PlenyofFish.com i ma asked by the site to verify my account...EVERY SINGLE TIME!!..never used to happen before i upgraded firefox and it costs me money in text each time,,ridiculous to go through this each and every time...and seems to only happen with that one site...so how do i stop this from keeping on happening......??..thanks

I'm working with Linux 4.15 and Firefox 64.0 mint 1.0 I can list the sites which have stored cookies on my PC but impossible to obtain the details of the cookies that a site contain I've read sommewhere that it is possible by double click or right click from the site list . But it doesnot work So I cannot check if the setcookie I write from my web site work. Thanks in advance for your help

In Firefox "about:config" there are 2 separate entries: "network.cookie.lifetimePolicy" (which has a numerical entry) and "network.cookie.lifetimePolicyd" which has only a true/false choice.

There is only the one character difference in their names, but an obvious difference in the setting.

What is the difference between these 2 "about:config" entries? In particular, what does "network.cookie.lifetimePolicyd" do?

I have Firefox v. 73.0.1 installed on a 64 bit Win 7 Pro SP1 computer with i5 processor and 8 GB RAM.

Since the latest version of firefox installed about a week ago my transactions on a cashback site have stopped tracking.

What should my privacy settings be set to to allow the cashback site to track my purchases.
