Getting the runaround from Ebay login password prompts

I'm having fits trying to establish a fresh account at ebay after all else failed to
get through the pop up password completion box.

This may not be the right place to do it, but I know of no better or prompt
and accurate reply site.

First I thought it was Firefox doing the auto complete at sign in or register box.

Then I noticed that the other completion box says ebay login something. It completes and rejects an old password each time. The google questions and answers have not got me out of this.

The standard reply is uncheck the box to keep me logged in. That has failed to do anything.

Also clear clipboard cache for which SevenForums has a shortcut procedure also failed.

I used to have a nice friendly ebay account, now I can't get in for any amount of
re registering (did that) password changes etc.

If anyone has something direct I'll use it.

I'm tired of their menus that lead nowhere and their 'qualifying me' with questions
and no direct access. I also don't care to 'chat' online. It makes me nervous.

It may be I'm just done with them after this.

My rep is ok, I'm a purchaser only and this kind of what I've come to call
"challenging behavior" is unacceptable.

It's definitely an ebay pop up box upper left corner which can't be turned off
or disabled. I think it's directly related to the My Ebay function since I can
browse ebay. I just can't do anything else.

Just happened again. I gave the new password which, throurgh all of this runaround I sort of remember, got the error and bingo, the welcome message returns to my mail box. I can browse but
if I try anything to do with passwords it'll say "oops that's not a match." I'm tired of seeing it
and I'm finished with it.

Anak,

I appreciate your effort. Maybe someone else will see this GetHuman place as well because
I certainly never did. I will make the effort when I calm down. It may take a while.

thanks again.

Just now I was looking at some of the related topics here on recursive logins ( which must be the magic phrase to describe what goes on.) They said that a system clock error can cause all this frustration.

My system clock may indeed be off by a bit but I have to be cautious about restarts
and so have to continue to avoid that. But it's something that may be in play.

I've had flaky restart problems on one of my systems which is mostly likely old hardware- related.

I can mark this as solved.
Much confusion on this one and frustrating but there is a solution at Mozilla, not ebay which I will
print below.

A security setting needs to be changed in Firefox. With a new register at Ebay due to ISP change
etc., turn off the password key box using the instruction below:

How do I turn off the Do you want to save password? | Firefox Support Forum | Mozilla Support

"If you disable the Firefox Password Manager then you shouldn't
get the pop-up to remember passwords."
