every time I change pages(Tabs) on the computer... I have to go to the "forgot password" sign in page, and request a new PW to log back on,,, this just started about an hour ago,,, I make a new PW and check the "save PW" box, but if I change tabs, I have make a new PW to log back into AK... I didn't make any computer changes, and have been using Firefox since I found AK
Thanks for any help...
 
It goes in the address bar of your browser. Change http://audiokarma.org to https://audiokarma.org

You changed your "bookmark" for AK. That is the right thing to do. :thumbsup:

Thanks again,,, I used to build my computers up to about P1,,, but really get lost in the software/website geek babble... this W10 box is the worst POS Ive ever had!!!
thanks for the help., and conformation!
 
Short lived!!!! I got locked out again this morning when I re started the computer,,, spent about 2 hours trying to decipher the "reset PW puzzles" couldn't seem to read any until I lucked into this one,,, Hoping this stays on line long enough to sort this out, as I wont be able to find my way back easily

Notes,,, PW puzzles change faster(about a second or so) than they can be read... I added the S on the bookmark yesterday with IPADave help, it is still there but I can't log in using either the book mark or changing back without the S...
This may be my problem, but I didn't knowingly make any changes, unless fire fox updated, and changed settings,, no other programs are affected...
Without being able to read the puzzles, I cant reset PW to respond,,,
I sent a PM to an AK member I know thru DIYaudio forum, with a similar message to try to get help from an AK administrator,,, who should have my email address on file, if I lose contact here again...
Thanks in advance for any help in solving this problem...
Hope this isn't my last visit to AK!!
 
You are 'checking' the 'Stay Logged In' box when you log in?

I just tried deliberately tripping my system up by trying to log in to the old (http://) address - it won't let me log in. I hit the 'Forums' tab - which normally refreshes the view (still http://) - and tried again - can't log in - this isn't a problem and may be expected behaviour. But I wonder if the way 'you' are using your browser and it's settings is the reason for the issues you are seeing?

Then I tried switching to another tab using the https:// URL - I can log in and log out freely, and can open new tabs at will - all of which show me as being logged in to the https:// URL.

Yes,,, It logs in automatically if I use the FF tab on home page, to which I added the "S" yesterday,,, Just tried it and it worked, again... I left the computer on "sleep" overnight as usual and couldn't get on AK this morning... So its working,,,,, for now, since I finally was able to decipher a PW puzzle... I'm just concerned with the "reset password puzzle" problem I ran into this morning... I guess there isn't a way to contact AK for help thru email, if this happens again??
Thanks...
