Firefox will not work with journal access at https://journals.sagepub.com
As a member of the American Sociologial Association I have the ability to download PDF copies of ASA journal articles. Firefox simply will not work. So I switch to Safri and it works fine. I assume that Firefox security protections or something is blocking me. I cannot find any information in support for this problem. In Firefox I go in circles between this screen (attached) and logging into ASA. In Safari I download the article without this problem.
Can you direct me to a trouble shooting guide so that I know what to turn off when I want to download the articles without having to switch to Safari?

Please explain the problem in detail. What happens? What is/are the exact error message(s) ?
Make sure you are not blocking content.
