(Archived) Impossible to login with Firefox Addon

[sipson 0]

I cannot get the EverNote addon of Firefox to accept my correct User ID and Password. This it what happens:

1.in the browser, I hit the elephant Icon of evernote

2. the login window appears

3. I type in my UserID and password, hit the login button

4. I don't get logged in. Instead of it, the window appears again.

The UserID and password works, if I login into the normal Evernote application. I tried out a weak password using only characters but the error remains.

Does anyone know, if this is a bug or a "feature" ?

Firefox 4.0, Mac OS X 10.5.8 and , Mac OS X 10.6.x with newest updates installed

Hi sipson,

I believe that this is a result of the "Third Party Cookies" option in firefox. To login, the EN clipper needs to set a cookie. Since it is not allowed in the settings, you can't login.

I wouldn't suggest turning the "Third Party Cookies" option on, but choose to add evernote to the exceptions. This will mean that it will only allow the evernote cookie, not others

This is what I have done
