2FA Wonkiness w/ Firefox #20
Comments
Hi @JoeCotellese! Thanks for taking the time to flag this issue. I have managed to replicate it on my setup. Temporary work-aroundAfter entering the email and password, hit the "Enter" key of your keyboard rather than clicking on the "Sign In" button. This should keep the extension pop-up open, letting it to transition to the next page which is the 2FA code authentication: It is important that you do not navigate away from the pop-up before it has transitioned to the 2FA page. Why this happens?
Essentially, this is a race condition between the 2FA notification arriving at the device and the extension receiving the successful sign-in response. This behaviour does not happen on Chrome. There are very few cases where Chrome will close the extension pop-up without the user taking any action (such as a click outside the pop-up, or hitting the "Esc" key). @JoeCotellese Let me know if the above work-around works for you for the time being. I will be looking into putting a proper fix together. |

It took a few tries but that did the trick. Thanks! |
i had the same issue, but your temp workaround solved it perfetcly! thanks a lot |
Tried several times but couldn't make it work (though it worked on Edge). Isn't it possible to open the log in dialog in a new popup window or tab? (by entering the URL manually or something) Thanks :) |
Hi @rafacampoamor! Yes, it is possible to open the pop-up as a normal tab:
Note that pop-up URLs are unique per installation. Entering the above URL of mine won't work. You need to retrieve the URL of your own installation of the extension. |
FYI, I've started working on a proper fix to this issue a few weeks ago but never got around to shipping it. I hope I will get some time by the end of the month to wrap this up. |
@dedoussis It worked! Thank you so much for the workaround! |
This Workaround is not working for me on Mac OS Firefox 110. If I use enter instead of clicking the button it still closes my popup |
@Futos you could try using the above workaround ☝️ |
Version 1.0.6 of the Firefox add-on has been released, which properly fixes this issue: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/icloud-hide-my-email/versions/ @JoeCotellese @mounta11n @rafacampoamor @Futos will leave this thread open for a few days. Please let me know if you encounter any issues with the latest version. |
**UPDATE**: I just made a second testint and, as the popup still closes itself after the iCloud 2FA launches, it opens again asking for the code when clicked again. I tested it as well on different containers and worked properly. Didn't try yet to quit Firefox and open it again to test how it operates...
~~I just did a quick test and it’s still behaving the same way as it did previously. Even when I did the workaround you told us, it works for that moment, not keeping the session opened for next uses.~~

Hi, I'm trying to use the extension in Firefox. My Apple account has 2FA enabled.
When I enter my email / password and get the 2FA prompt the extension login window goes away. When I click again, I get an empty login window rather than a prompt to enter 2FA.
