checked. I can't uncheck it; it wants the "old" password and I never set
it.
Its not checked for me..... I'm not sure what you've done.
Mostly solved. Fortunately I don't use anything complex for authentication.
Here is the article explaining how to reset the master password in
Firefox, T-bird, etc. :
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Master_password#Resetting_the_master_password
I used :
Choose Tools – Error Console, paste the expression:
openDialog("chrome://pippki/content/resetpassword.xul")
...and press the Evaluate button. That will open a dialog asking you if
you want to reset your password.
There is a note on the page indicating that FF can get into a state
where the Master Password is set to an erroneous or invalid value.
Since I did nothing but yum update and reboot yesterday, I guess t-bird
has a similar issue.
