Forum Bashkësie Firefox

Hi! I didn't set up a passkey on PayPal Business and the best that PayPal can figure, it was done by Firefox. I don't have the PIN for this passkey and I can't set-up another passkey because my account "already has a passkey". I can't change the passkey PIN because I don't know the PIN. I'd like to know:

• Why would Firefox set up a passkey on PayPal business for me? ( I think that should be my decision, thank you very much.)
• Given that one was "set-up" for me; where is the passkey hidden? Any clues on that?
• Is there anyway to get Firefox to undo the passkey (or tell me the PIN) that I didn't request so I don't have to switch to Edge just to go to PayPal Business. It's ridiculous!
• Has this happened to anyone else or has anyone heard of this.

The work around that PayPal recommended is that I go to PayPal from another browser. I always use Firefox and sort of resent having to switch browsers for this reason just for this account. From Microsoft Edge and I can go to my PayPal business account and just sign in with my password and there is no request for a passkey PIN. I'm not setting up a passkey at this point, which would only be wrong if I use Firefox to log on. So I'll stick with switching to Edge for the time being! Maybe someone can give me a clue.

PS: I tried to get a screenshot of the pop-up related to this issue that says "requested by Firefox" but I wasn't allowed to get a screenshot from there.

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

Hello Folks: after having the 'invisible' band across the top of each page, it was advised I reset : was fine saved all bookmarks before hand etc. Now, I am having to log into my usual apps each time: eg. the Library, the duck.ai, the Fitness app etc. Was this a result of the reset: wondering if the duckduckgo Privacy Essentials extension and the FF reset (refresh?) in now in conflict: I am not a greenhorn but definitely not an advanced techy so laylman's terms please THANK you for your help with this.

There should be a web interface to manage firefox account passwords, yet there isn't. This is seriously bad because it means the user has to install firefox to manage passwords. I installed firefox on mobile just to find out there's no option to select multiple passwords at once so i can delete all of them. Please delete all of them.

You sent me an email that says I have successfully created a password on "Windows 10" "I have Windows 11" ?? I need tech support because I don't know how to log into my account. Can I get a call at [edited phone# from public community support forum]. Name Paul Yoshida.

i have been using this email address [email 1 removed] and it wont let me to sign in or reset password i do have another email address which is no longer use its been hacked ([email 2 removed]) is it possible to change the email address to [email 1 removed] so i can continue using that email [email 1 removed]

thanks

There are many sites where I am unable to log in. One of these three things usually happens. 1. Fill out email and password, click log in, infinite loading with on some sites (like Spotify) an error about not being able to load. 2. Fill out email and password or the form, try to click send/continue/log in but I can not click it, it's greyed out. 3. Fill out email and password, get told it is incorrect. For any of these issues, if I switch to chrome (which I am trying to avoid) it works, it's just limited to Firefox.

I have tried disabling the advanced protection, that doesn't change anything. Any tips would be much appreciated and I will try to answer any questions as fast as possible.

Thanks in advance

Hi Mozilla teams,I need your help! I lost my phone and my access WhatsApp,I don't have code to have my WhatsApp access back, I'm really confused about what's going on, I'd really appreciate if could take a look into this issue , and restore my WhatsApp code back, thank so much for your help.

I set up a primary password, forgot it and set up another one, now neither work. I'm so fed up with Firefox i just want to delete it, but Mozilla support said do not delete the account without solving this problem.

I'd appreciate any help you can give.

I do use AVG and I have turned off the VPN while using Firefox to see if that helps.

Best

The security sequence for log-in is supply of user-id and then password; that works fine; then a send unique code dialogue pops up and it leads to an error screen which I am attaching. I have rung the number provided and they say they don't support Firefox; so that looks like end of Firefox use to me and goodbye (can't find a tearful emoji to insert).

Gotta say this kind of thing is happening quite frequently for me; mostly without a nice error screen like this one; last one I recall was hunting for car insurance; on the screen where it listed the billions of quotes to eager providers none of the links to click through for the quotes worked... and with this happeneing more frequently now you go... ohh it's firefox again isn't it... so you reluctantly fire up Google Chrome and of course it works OK.

So I'm kinda here with a broader outlook than just this specific problem; I really am on the verge of giving up with Firefox; it should just work shouldn't it; and it increasingly doesn't anymore; I don't want to get into an extended and convoluted dialogue to help you cure this issue; I'm simply perplexed that some really basic stuff doesn't work anymore; however; I've used Firefox for centuries so thought I should give you at least a chance so I could declare how I feel etc.

I am up for a dialogue over this and hoping this is an easy fix; but; as I say; I'm confused as to why, for me, Firefox just simply doesn't work well anymore; it just should and I shouldn't be here.
