Chrome to Firefox won't log in - Answered

Post by Paulette »

Just installed Firefox after long satisfaction with Chrome browser. But I find I can't log in here. I'm returned to the log-in page, so I log in and get sent back to log in again.

I feel I'm making an elementary error or not seeing something.

This time I used Chrome again, and had no problems.

Looking at others' comments about Firefox it seems that no one else has this or a similar problem.

Any suggestions, other than sticking to Chrome?

I sometimes use Firefox on an android phone, and it logs in just fine. I didn't need to change any settings or anything :huh:

I have use Chrome and Firefox with no problems.

I used to have a lot of problems with IE so went to Firefox on my computer. My wife had Chrome on hers and I use it some with no problems.

I did have one time that I thought I am be having trouble with Firefox, but it could have also been my computer

I prefer to use Chrome, IE on occasion, never used Firefox or any other browsers.

That being said, I do know that we have quite a few members who use Firefox with no problems whatsoever.

Have you checked your Firefox settings (and/or anti-virus and pop-up blocker software) to make sure it's set to allow cookies? Without that 'allow cookies' option being checked you won't get access to the forum no matter what browser you use. :no:

Of course! I'm sure that's it.

This BB is so well put together that I'd be surprised if it didn't work across all platforms.
