Firefox ~ won't log in to Paypal

G'day all,

 

Anyone else having this problem?

Since last Friday I cannot log in to Paypal using Firefox v30.0.

I can with Internet Explorer ( which is a real about face!)

 

All I get is the spinning circle with the word "loading", which stays that way for 10 minutes or more.

 

Everything else is working fine with Firefox and I have the same problem whether I am on my computer at work or the one at home, both running XP SP3 and Firefox 30.0

 

???

It does not matter what Windows OS (operating system) you are using, if you are using Firefox as a browser, it will be the same process to clear the cache not matter what OS you are using. If you can't work it out, I suggest you download Ccleaner, it's free and is a great, easy to use program.

 



I think I have found my problem - this is what I use

 

My Windows Cleaner

I'm willing to bet all the money in my pocket that it does...

 

Nope - none of that stuff is there on mine - it's hiding now. I know where it USED to be on Win 7 - but now it's gone -

 


 


Here is a link to show you how to clear the cache, notice how it is the same with Windows 7 or 8. Click here

0kay now where's all that cash, do you want to send that by pigeon carrier or Aust Post. Or even better PayPal. Smiley LOL

 

Here is a link to ''how to find the start screen in Windows8. Click here Notice how it is the same place that i suggested? lol Smiley Happy

Re: Firefox ~ won't log in to Paypal

yeah, but it doesn't look the same, does it?

 

I used to have a little round symbol...

 

I'm ok with the tile screen, but all that stuff that used to be under the round start button, well

 

it's gone.

 

So, I just put it in the "out of sight, out of mind" pile.

 

That seems to work ok atm

 

.................

 

as for payment - I said I would bet all the money in my pocket..

 

I'm in my jammies - no pockets...

 

...................

 

What I would like to really know though is, => How do I set my own screensaver on Windows 8? I used to be able to put any pic I liked there, but now I have to use what they give me, and the choices ain't that exciting. I can select my own Lock Screen pic though...

No it doesn't look the same but you should still get the point. Smiley Indifferent

You need to use much smaller words because when it comes to techy geek stuff, for me - there is no point LOLOL

No, the cache is the info that your browser stores to load that page quicker, kinda lke a bookmark. It has nothing to do with your stored passwords. That is when you delete your cookies and you will have the option to not delete them.
