Please assist. Windows 7. Logging into my Gmail account fails due to some change Googlemail made. I get the following response when entering my password: Sending of password for user ee.scheffler@gmail.com did not succeed. Mail server pop.googlemail.com responded: Application-specific password required: https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/185833 No other options offered at this point, only to re-enter my password (which fails again). I do not know how to proceed to get around the problem.

Is there any way to set an exception? I keep getting an error on this totally legit website -- and of course Microsoft isn't going to offer me any solutions other than to use Edge (which works)

I have had to reset Win10 which has kindly removed all my TB e-mail settings. When I first started to use TB I wrote down all the settings which I have tried to use now but I can't log into the server.

I think I am using the right password but I can't log in. How do I recover my password, please?

Thank you

I got up this morning and opened Thunderbird to read my mail and check some draft messages. It says something about an OpenPGP certificate. I have no idea what this is all about and when I try to open anything in my Draft folder it is all blank! My mail was working fine when I went to bed last night. Can someone please tell me what is going on with Thunderbird???

I opened Gmai with my browser and all my drafts say Encrypted!

HELP!!

Last few days I was trying to fix send/receive emails; following all kinds of suggestions (generating pass in AOL mail Account Security section, copying and pasting where requested) I managed to make incoming mail work on my PC. Sending the mails still no go despite generating a different pass for outgoing mail. I am getting this: Unable to authenticate to Outgoing server (SMTP) smtp.verizon.net. Please check the password and verify the 'Authentication method' in 'Account Settings | Outgoing server (SMTP)'. Where am I going wrong??? Please help.

I suddenly can't send email from Thunderbird (I was able to receive on start up but can no longer). Thunderbird says my inbound password is wrong (maybe, but I write them down with great care), and i have searched and searched for a way to correct and cannot find one.

I've been using Thunderbird for years and have a pretty extensive folder tree set up under my Profile. My internet provider is Comcast. I just happened to look on the Comcast website at my email. The exact same folder tree (and contents) is sitting on the Comcast site. WTF! Obviously the only way that Comcast could get that is if Thunderbird is uploading (syncing) to Comcast everything that I do when Thunderbird is open. How do I stop it, and whom do I slap for allowing it to happen in the first place?

My old computer had issues and I could't fix it, so I got a new laptop after some time. When tried to login to Firefox, I couldn't remember my account password. So I used the password reset option to reset password.

Now I don't have access to my old saved passwords which I saved in my old computer.

I have the hard disk of the old/ damaged computer, so I'm looking for a way to copy/ restore my logins/ passwords saved from the old computer hard disk to my new laptop.

Both computers are Windows 10. Any help?

I got the news about lockwise being end of life. I used it as my Android password manager so far.

The email told me to use Firefox instead. So far so good, but: When I log in and sync in Firefox all the passwords or unprotected in the browser. I can simply open Amazon and Firefox happily fills out the login. I have to use my pin/fingerprint to access the list of passwords but while browsing they are leaked.

Where is the setting to protect my passwords? This is unacceptable as a password manager!

I have had a strange thing happening : - on my account, it stated a connexion from a OnePlus A6003 yesterday - I do not have such a phone, I do have however a OnePlus GM1913 - When I disconnected the A6003, it did kick me out of GM1913 - When I reconnected the GM1913, it listed it correctly

What could be the cause of this?

I had a yahoo account configured on my laptop with Thunderbird and it worked flawlessly. I need to change to a gmail account, so I edited the account settings, changed the email addresses, changed the IMAP & SMTP settings etc. to the new gmail settings. I am able to receive mail just fine, but am unable to send mail. I get a yahoo prompt to sign in each time I try to send mail (attached). I close that prompt and then receive a message

Sending of the message failed. Unable to authenticate server (SMTP) smtp.gmail.com. Please check the password and verify in Account Settings.

I have removed saved passwords and verified all settings. Could there still be something hanging on from the old yahoo account? At this point I have uninstalled TB, reinstalled, removed all accounts, recreated them. Nothing seems to allow me to authenticate to the SMTP server.

I am using Port 465, server name smtp.gmail.com, Authentication method OAuth2 and connection is SSL/TLS.

Any other ideas? Thank you! Lisa

Cannot access about:config on Firefox android. This seems to be an intentional action as there is an archived thread where other users had the same problem and Firefox did crikets and did not resolve the issue.

Without the ability to access about:config it is almost impossible to prevent browser hacks and spying through microphone and camera using the Firefox's always on webrtc due to this.

For anyone reading this search for "webrtc leaks" . Then read about the dangers of having webrtc on by default as Firefox does with impunity.

This needs to stop and it is a huge security hole.

Firefox developers needs to enable about:config so that users can switch off shouting vulnerabilities like this.

There has been threads before like this, but developers do nothing about this issue which is very very curious.

Should we believe they want to leave webrtc on permanently, knowing that it can be used maliciously as reported?

Security issue with form filler data -- LSS, I have some very unwanted saved data somewhere in some buffer area of the browser that I want to surgically remove.

I currently have firefox set to offer to save logins, and not to fill in addresses or credit cards. I have indicated, when offered, to "never save" logins from certain sites. I have gone to the saved logins area in firefox and verified that the login information is not saved there. However when I go to a site, the login information is in the browser somewhere and shows up under the form blank as I type the correct information in. Obviously this is a security issue. I once got rid of this data by deleting EVERYTHING but of course I lost a lot in the process. The first time I did that I hadn't fully configured the settings for form filler so I hoped for better the second time around. But no, alas and alack it is back. I am hoping someone out there knows how I can go in and surgically remove this data.

NOTE I have already tried every solution in the firefox help area and in the firefox forums and on all help sites on the first ten pages of google so PLEASE do not fill up the answer area telling me to try that stuff. It did not work. The only thing that worked was deleting EVERYTHING (Ctrl+shift+del clear everything for all time) I have spent hours on trying different things because 1) these logins should not be saved and 2) I don't want to delete everything again 3) I didn't want to have to write this essay here.

TLDR Alternately if you know how I can export and then import my cookies and site settings, I could delete EVERYTHING and then add those 2 back in. THANK YOU fellow campers!

Vanguard.com made a change to their logon process that now requires all logons must go through their 2 step authentication process, that sends a text msg with an authorization code to a smartphone, which in turn is entered into the authentication popup that appears after the main userid/password logon is accepted.

My issue is after I've gone through the initial logon by entering my userid and password, and hitting the "logon button", nothing happens. The authentication popup does not appear, and no text msg is received, so I can't get past the initial logon dialog.

I've user another browser to logon on to the Vanguard site, and I successfully complete the 2 step process and get logged on.

On Firefox, I've got the Vanguard logon url in the exception list of the pop-up blocker, and enhanced tracking protection. I also it excluded in the ad blocker extension installed on Firefox.

How can I determine what is breaking the 2 step logon authentication? I'm assuming that I some privacy setting in Firefox that likely doing it... maybe. What else can I check in my settings?

1 From Menu, I selected Settings

2 I then selected Privacy & Security
3 I Scroll down to HTTPS-Only Mode 
4 I selected Don't enable HTTPS-Only Mode

When I put in "http://docs.imsidesign.com/projects/TurboCAD-2021/turbocad-2021-user-guide-publication/Customized-Programming/Parametric-Part-Script-Editing/ the address bar always changes to https...

I've tried restarting Firefox, I tried restarting my computer. nothing I've done will turnoff HTTPS mode

The address works fine in MS Edge.

I have Windows 10 Pro version 20H2 on a Dell 7750 purchased in Apr/2021.

I use TurboCAD 2021 Platinum. I'd like to use the TurboCAD online help with Firefox.

Firefox will not save ANY new passwords. Some older ones still work. Checking menu->passwords gives 'no logins found'

I use Thunderbird Mail which I had not updated for years. I was starting to get a lot of certificate errors of some emails so I did an update (and set auto update) It's now at 91.4.1. This update broke Thunderbird in that is needed a passwork every time is started, or sent email, or attempted to check the server for emails. Totally unusable. Searches to fix this suggested two files are used, and one post suggested a third file. Suggestions were delete these files and Thunderbird would recreate them. I did, it did and the problem remained. However the third file mentioned in only one post DIDN'T get recreated. From memory the three files were cert9.db, key4.db and logins.json and I think it was logins.json that didn't create. I created a dummy file of the same name and now I can save my email login.

As a result of the above cert9.db, key4.db and logins.json were deleted, from the Firefox profile as well as the Thunderbird one.

On starting Firefox I quickly found I'd lost all the logins, and started re-adding them as I needed them. This worked for a while, but now I can't add any more. Firefox still prompts to save but next time that site is accessed it asks for the password again (earlier sites are still remembered) The dates on the files are logins.json 14/11/2021, cert9.db & key4.db 15/11/2021 (current date 26/12/2021) I removed all these files from the Firefox profile, started Firefox and it recreated the two db files with the current date, logins.json was created with the date 13/11/2021, which is the date of logins-backup.json Next I deleted the three files and logins-backup.json and started Firefox, db files recreated but not logins.json this time.

In both cases the earier web sites still remember the passwords and the laster ones don't, and firefox still shows 'No logins found'

Where are the passwords stored? It's clearly not cert9 or key4, there's a hight source that can recreate these files

Is there a registry problem?

Thanks

One day Mozilla started stopping all outgoing emails to notify me of "Following recipients are in To field:" after I click the "send" button. The message is not sent without acknowledging this useless message and could be sitting in the background for hours. Is this a security check to make sure I'm sending the message to the right people? how do I turn this off?

Hello, I have a problem with the add-on "SaveFrom.net Helper". I tried many different possibilities to delete this. When I am in the browser firefox, it´s able to delete. By a new start it's always again in my readsign.

Kind regard Edmund
