How to have Maemo Browser ask for password again
 
So I think I've clicked on "Don't ask again" when I was logging in Ovi Store, and now it's really annoying to have to type your username and password everytime I log in. Just want to know how to reset the browser so that it gives me the option to save the password for the future. Thanks

I asked this once before without a successful answer. Even deleting all passwords and starting over did not work. But with the new firmware I should try again.
CLEAR PRIVATE DATA under the browser OPTIONS menu.

As for Ovi Store, it will always ask you for the password. It's weird but I think that's how they want it to be. As for the other websites, my passwords are saved.

Ovi store always takes you to that page when you attempt a download... It should auto-populate the information though once you get there.
Go to "Options" from the browsers title bar.
Click "Add-ons".
Pick the "extensions" tab on the page that opens. Highlight "Single sign on for Ovi by Nokia".
Select "Find Updates" at the bottom of that page.

There should be an update from version 1.0.2-1 to version 1.5.11.2 available.
Select "Install Updates" and see if this helps.

Nice tips, I was trying to do what you said by updating the Single sign, but upon installation, this message came up :

"
MicroB could not install the file at

http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozi...5.11.2-fix.xpi

because: Unexpected installation error
Review the Error Console log for more details.

"

It happened several times already, what can i do? Thanks

That's a Firefox error >> http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_...ion_error_-203
That shows up sometimes after a software update. It is not life threatening. But once the maemo.org server move is complete this week-end, you may want to check Bugzilla to see if a bug has been filed, If it has. Vote it up. I
If it hasn't been filed yet, register and file it. You will earn some Karma. :)

It's pretty straight forward but you need to separate your original complaint from the issue you are reporting. Problems with how the OVI site behaves should be reported to the OVI site by whatever means they provide. (e-mail, etc.).
Maemo.org Bugzilla bugs should be only what can be affected by the N900 itself.

For instance in this case:

You checked MicroB "Extensions" by doing "x, y, and z".
You found that extension "z" had an update.
You clicked "update" and expected that the extension would update.
What happen instead was that an error reading "whatever" was returned.
This happens every time you click the update button.


Good luck and please keep us informed in this thread so we can vote on the bug you found. :)
