I'm trying to log into my Firefox account from a different computer from my personal, but the login page keeps flagging my password as incorrect. On my personal computer I'm able to change my password, but whenever I change it the system flags the "previous" password as incorrect, and none of the ones I change it to register as correct on the second computer. I really don't want to reset my whole Firefox account to be able to log into another computer, please help?

Is this with all websites/pages, some, a few?

Try entering the login data manually. The problem still there?


Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache.

Warning ! ! This will log you out of sites you're logged in to. You may also lose any settings for that website.

If there is still a problem,

Start Firefox using Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode {web link}

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?

While you are in Troubleshoot(Safe) mode;

Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration in Firefox. Since this feature was added to Firefox it has gradually improved but there are still a few glitches.
