Hi Biggles50

Many thanks for your advice.
I never thought to.do that, does the problem come from Firefox? as that is the browser I use
I used my Apple Id and got in straight away!

My sincere thanks for your help and advice.

Kind regards
Tomm

Try shutting down Firefox, then open up again.
Sometimes a Firefox update can cause issues?

Hi   KGarrad

I think you could well be right! as I have not messed with anything on my laptop to bring  this problem about.
At 90 my brain don't work like it used to!

Many thanks
Kind regards

The same thing happenened to me but I just changed to a different website for a few moments and then tried again and logged straight in. On previous days I have been asked to tick box to prove I'm human!
