In order to get on board I have to request new password via E-Mail every time this morning , but once I close MFO Website it requires me to sign in again Help ! Ted
Dear Chip: Using IE requested a new password via E-Mail and everything seem to be OK, but when using Firefox and requesting new password via E-Mail nothing happens. Please help!! Regards, Ted
Why do you re-request a new password? Why don't you type your existing password? You can set your existing password in IE and use the same password for logging in via Firefox.
If the password is not easy to remember, you can change it by clicking on your name and on the blue menu bar of the forum (between Inbox and MGR) and chose Change password on the left column.
Also, try the following direct link to the forum in your browser instead of going through the home page (in which Forum becomes embedded in World Press). What you seeing could be a side effect of that interaction.
Sorry for the delay. I had to take my car to the shop and forgot to log-out here.
It sounds like you might have your browser set to delete cookies. Your browser's password manager may also be remembering an old password for the site. The combination of the two is likely what's causing your problem.
In Firefox, try going into the options menu. There should be a security tab and in there you'll find the password manager. If you delete the saved password for MFO, that should fix your problem.
Dear MikeM: I thought of that, but since I'm Mr. Mutual Fund and the world's oldest linkster this site couldn't get along without me. Could it ???? Regards, Ted
Either that or Ted/several MFO members are getting O-L-[d] could not figure out the iPAD...lol. ... even I cant even figure out the IPAD so probably belong in the same boat
happy new yr ted/MFOs. thanks for all the linkage.
I use Firefox and have had no problem accessing MFO. It typically keeps me logged in, and only occasionally asks me to sign in again, in which case I use the same password I've used since MFO began.
Reply to @johnN: When I'm not home or otherwise away from my Windows laptop, I live on the iPad and use its Safari browser. I have never had a problem accessing MFO from my iPad.
Reply to @tgeno: Me too. I do follow this forum often from iPhone using Safari. I prefer the mobile version of the forum though. It is much more readable on small screen.
Reply to @tgeno: I am using the password I started with this site when I first joined. I get logged out once a month or so when the cookie expires but I can use my userid and password (or email and password) to log back in again. I am not sure why Ted needs to request password each time.
