Title: Login problems in firefox?
Post by: Grek on December 12, 2013, 07:16:05 pm
I've been having trouble logging in on firefox. IE works fine. Any idea what might be causing this?

Nope. What kind of "login problems" are you having?

I get the following message:

Quote
An Error Has Occurred!
Sorry, but you've reached your login attempts threshold. Please wait 30 seconds and try again later.

whenever I put in my login information. I know I'm not typing the password wrong, since it works fine in IE, but no matter what I do, any attempt to log in produces this error message.

Does that message appear after a few tries or 1st time you try to log in?

Also you are remembering capital letters and etc etc that you might have forgotten about in saved passwords in IE?

It happened every time.

Clearing cookies seems to have fixed it. I don't know.

Did you change any settings within firefox and what type version of firefox do you have? To find out the version go to Help>About Firefox

Version 25.0.1. I have not changed any settings in the time between when firefox started freaking out and when I had logged in the time before that.

Try resetting Firefox by going to Options>Troubleshooting Information then click Reset Firefox button.

I already fixed it? I'm not going to go screw with things further and maybe break it again.

I should probably lock this thread.
