Hi,

I use Ovi a lot (ovi.com). And recently (about 3 or 4 days ago) I have been unable to log in because the login script at their page keep reloading over and over. Here some details.

I'm using Firefox 3.0.8

I'v tried login in on IE and it work.

And here's the kicker. It only does this on my Main profile. I tried switching Firefox profiles and I logged in no problem on the other one. But this one, the main one, simply wont work. I type in my login and click the Sign In button and it takes me to a blank page with the following URL

https://account.nokia.com/fed/engine/logout...SFSLogout=false

And it just keep reloading and reloading, non-stop. I stopped the reloading and checked the source and I can totally see the reason why it keep reloading, but I don't get why I simply don't get Logged in and sent to my Ovi profile page like on IE or another Firefox profile.

Here's the source:

<head>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=/fed/user/logoutwsfed?doneURL=https%3A%2F%2Faccount.nokia.com%2Ffed%2Fengine%2Fforward.jsp%3Fusername%3DG0gge%26password%3D1997isbest%26initiatesso%3D1%26doneURL%3D%2Fuser%2Floginsso%26authnMech%3Doracle%253Afed%253Aauthentication%253Apassword-protected%26forceauthn%3Dfalse%26providerid%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.ovi.com%252FSAML%26prvid%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.ovi.com%252FSAML" >
</head>

Obviously I think there's something wrong with this specific profile and I really wanna fix it. Any suggestion are welcome. By the way I cleared all cookies from that site, but it didn't work.

Thanks,

//Raz

Sorry I can't suggest anything, but I also have an ovi account and an ovi email account, and the same thing has happened to me several times, I just kept typing ovi.com or www.ovi.com into the address bar and it eventually works... So it's not a problem with your system or browser. (I have a Nokia phone but I don't really use Ovi yet)

    • Windows Server gets DNS over HTTPS (DoH) support

      Microsoft is busy. Lots of changes to be released imminently for Windows server or soon. Also, lots happening for next version as well. Third party virus scanning software is being moved out of Kernel mode to avoid repeat of Crowdstrike incident. Windows Protected Mode and Windows Ready Print no longer require third party print drivers to be installed. New storage stack being developed. New NVME drivers now available for Windows Server 2025 to improve local NVME drive performance by 60+ percent. NVME-Of of fabric being worked on for next release to improve network access to NVME drives. ReFs (next file system) now has ability to boot and will become default file system in next release of Windows Server. ReFs improves on NTFS in several areas including resiliency and reliability and scalability. New update stack is being worked on to unify Windows updates, and updates for drivers and first party/3rd party application software. A stricter and more robust third-party driver certification program (ODI) is being worked on to improve performance, thermals, battery life, and reliability on modern Windows hardware by tightening how OEMs and IHVs (Intel, AMD, Qualcomm, NVIDIA, etc.) build and ship drivers. There is a tone more but too numerous to mention.

      Now disable that stupid OneDrive backup request when Windows starts please. So unbelievably frustrating to only have “remind me later” instead of “no and never ask me again”

      Since they open sourced the calculator in Win 10/11 it is much better and can do a lot, I love it.
    • Using Windows 10 past its end of support date, is it really that bad?

      By +Edouard · Posted

      That's just silly imo. The lengths that man goes to just to avoid W11 is just nuts. Very, very few home users would do that. I will say this though, he is committed. Btw, I note on askwoody that Woody Leonhard passed away March, 2025 aged 73. His site was one of my favorites back in the day. Belated yes but RIP Woody.
