why I have to keep signing in

[Ted Stryker]

Dont know why, but I have to re-enter my screen name and password every day or two days max.. Why is the question

[flabum1017]

Are you clicking the little box that says "remember me"?

[Ted Stryker]

Yessir everytime.. I used to not ever have this problem but it's every 24 hrs or so now.. not a major inconvenience, just mostly curious.. thanks for the reply

When I clear my browser history I have to sign in again, even if I say keep passwords.

[Ted Stryker]

ahhh maybe that's it.. I clear my phone daily.. thanks

My iPad is the worst even when I check the box to keep me signed in for my email, I read a local paper and it only lets you read a few stories then you have to clear the browser to read more so I clear it often and have to sign in all the time.

I'll try the theory just for curiosity sake but it sound very plausible

cleared the browser after my last post 3min ago and had to re-enter my info to type this post.. Looks like the mystery is solved

Sign-in problems are almost always caused by an old login cookie. What you need to do is log out, then clear your browser's cookies. Restart the browser, then log back in. That should almost certainly clear any issues you have. This is not the same as clearing your history Clearing your history and clearing cookies are different processes, but on some browsers one button may do both operations at once, such as mobile phones.


It will be noted that after clearing your cookies, you will have to log back in to any websites that require a login. However, it is good maintenance to clear your browser's cookies every few months. Old login cookies retained by the browser will almost always cause the issues described here.
