Can’t Login to Tumblr with Firefox

If you are having trouble logging in to your Tumblr account when using Firefox (even when you know that password and username are correct), the problem is always related to two main things; Cookies and Firefox Version. What could also happen is that once you are inside Tumblr Dashboard, you get logged out to the loging screen again, or when trying to perform anything there you get the message “Please make sure you have cookies enabled in your browser”. Read the tutorial below to fix the Tumblr Firefox loging Issue.

Can’t Login to Tumblr with Firefox – Solution.

Download the latest Firefox Version here.
Once installed, go to Tools and choose Clear Recent History, Check all Items and Delete the entire range of data.
Now it’s time to check how cookies are configured. Go to Tools >> Options.
Select the Privacy Tab, from the dropdown menu, choose Firefox Will: Use Custom Settings for History
Check Accept Cookies from All Sites and also Accept Third Party Cookies. From the dropdown menu, choose Keep Until: They Expire
Now, click on exceptions, and verify that Tumblr.com is not in the list.
Click OK to close the window.

If you keep having issues to sign in to Tumblr with Firefox after taking all these steps, leave a message describing your problem.

Hello. I have followed all the instructions how to solve the problem of logging to Tumblr with Firefox but still no success. Immediately after clearing cache and cookies I get access to the loggin page, but as soon as i input the data and click loggin button – i get to see “the page isn’t redirecting properly” page again. after that I can’t even see the loggin page again (http://www.tumblr.com/suspended)
I have no problems loggin to other sites. I tried to loggin with other browsers (IE, Chrome) but get the same result.
Please help!
Sergei

Still not working.. it won’t let me log in and when i go on “forgot my password” and enter my e-mail address, they say that i am not in their system. But I am, since i can log in at work, on a pc, on Internet Explorer. Here I am on an MAC, trying to get on with firefox or Safari.

I’ve tried everything…

I had this problem for ages. Followed every instruction I could Bing (Not a google user, dont like to be tracked). I finally solved it by pausing Ghostery. Seems to prevent Tumblr for logging in. Hope this way is useful to some of ye.

Pausing Ghostery worked for me also.

Doesn’t work for me. I was originally using Internet Explorer and Tumblr always used to work for me, then recently when i tried to log in it opened a new window and asked me to download a file. Then I downloaded Firefox, it worked fine until recently, when i type all my stuff in, the box log in box shakes and refreshes.

This has been regular ever since they updated their site.
