I recovered my account using a backup code and set a new password. Two-step authentication is enabled but I don’t have the linked TOTP app. The settings UI does not allow disabling 2FA and does not offer backup code input. I still have unused 10-character backup recovery codes. Please advise.

Gmail sign-in: Firefox asks me to insert a security key instead of asking me to scan my fingerprint

I have a fingerprint scanner and a slot for a security key, but I have never used a security key, either in the slot or a USB plugin. When I try to go to Gmail, I enter … (read more)

I have a fingerprint scanner and a slot for a security key, but I have never used a security key, either in the slot or a USB plugin.

When I try to go to Gmail, I enter my gmail address, and then Firefox pops up a screen wanting me to insert my security key, and there are no buttons to change how I verify my identity.

I've hunted all around for what setting in Firefox is causing it, but no luck so far. Ideas?

Hi everyone,

I have been stuck for 3 days now and tried everything to get pass the authentication process.

I want to submit an Add on. On my profile page, 2 step authentication is enabled.

When i click submit new add-on, i am directed to the Enable two-step authentication page anyway. So ok i'll do that:

"Scan authentication code to continue to ⁨Add-ons⁩"

So i use google authenticator. And im able to continue.

Then im presented with "Save backup authentication codes", so i download them and store them.

PROBLEM:

On the next page, in need to "Confirm backup authentication code". ANY code i try, that was given to me in the previous step, doesn't work.

Error: There was a problem confirming your backup authentication code.

  • not using caps or whatever
  • no spaces in there
  • tried all the codes
  • tried different browsers
  • The time and date are correct on both phone and windows 10

I have NO clue what to do anymore. I can't get passed it. Can someone please advice. (see screenshots)
