Set an expiration and password for your files. By default, the link will expire after one download or one day.

I see the instructions now.

"Set an expiration and password (optional) for your files. By default, the link will expire after one download or one day. "

I interpreted this just setting an expiration would be enough, seeing as the password was optional. I did not interpret it that expiration AND password had to be set because the password was optional. I thought that the default would happen only if neither expiration and/or password were set.

Maybe it's just me, but I think this instruction should be made a little clearer.

Thank you for the quick response.

I have tried setting a password but I still cannot get "send" to download to the tablet on andriod 5 to a gmail email address, it comes up download complete but I cannot open the file keeps asking me to download it again. Please can someone help with this.

I cannot get send to work. I have read all the suggestions and tried changing the permission. Still not working

Send won't work for me, either.

I am signed into my FF account.

I visit https://send.firefox.com/.

I select the file, the expiration, and the number of downloads.

I click on "upload" which directs me to a page where I have to sign in to Firefox, when I already am.

When I sign in, I am directed to another sign in page that says, ""Create a Firefox Account or sign in."

When I sign in, I am directed to an error page that says, "Something went wrong!"

No kidding.

All as you have said is what keeps happening to me. I have tried putting more days in, having more downloads but it trys to download and fails every time unless I myself download on to the same computer. Then it is successful. However thats not a lot of use if you are trying to share a file with someone else.
