FoxCole's dashboard

"Xmarks employees are here to help" says the little green box at the top of this page. I haven't had any responses, ever, to any of my posts here, so I'm wondering, *who* are they here to help?

It would be nice if one of them would at least pop in and comment on whether this problem has been reviewed and what its status might be.

Xmarks isn't the only bookmark manager out there; it's just always been the one I preferred for ease of use and functionality, until now. Forced manual synching is a pain you-know-where and is NOT a satisfactory workaround.

The security module is broken and needs to be fixed. That's fundamental functionality and there's no excuse for it to not work properly for all users. No other website or software has ever had this problem, that I've ever seen. Something was changed in the new release that broke how login information is saved. Let's have someone look at it, please!

The "remember password" setting is also not being saved.. This has been a persistent problem ever since the new release of Xmarks, through at least two versions of Firefox. I've posted this same problem as replies to other threads, and the other persistency is that every comment is ignored.

Xmarks used to be great, but now its behavior is so irritating and intrusive during the work day, that I'm ready to disable it until somebody tells me it's been fixed. I have other ways to save and sync bookmarks... Yahoo, for one. I liked the Xmarks functionality better but it's not the end of the world for me to quit using it.

I am now very dissatisfied with Xmarks. SOMEbody please address these issues! If I can be of any help providing more details, please let me know.

Yep, same problem here since the upgrade to version 3.1.0.

Xmarks now forces me to log in when I launch Firefox (Portable Firefox 3.0.10) and during the session --- even though the "remember this password" box is checked.

It used to automatically sync in the background but doesn't appear to be doing so now... it appears to pop the login dialog when it wants to sync, because it isn't remembering my password so I have to log in every time.

The other annoying aspect of that is it won't leave me alone if I click Cancel (instead of entering my password and clicking OK). It pops the login dialog repeatedly at least once per minute until I actually log in. What a nag!

I should note that I've been a satisfied Foxmarks user for a couple of years, so it's not as though I'm unfamiliar with the settings and options. It's worked just fine until this upgrade.

But now it's annoying and disruptive.

Xmarks 3.1.0 did this to me too, at first. I'm sorry I don't remember exactly what I did to get it to stop and actually let me open Firefox... I think I clicked on the blank dialog and something happened to let me access the Xmarks option settings.

But now Xmarks pops a login dialog whenever I open Firefox, and often several times during the Firefox session. VERY annoying!
