March 2013: Paypal Sandbox login loops back to developer page [duplicate] - authentication

This question already has answers here:
Please login to use the PayPal sandbox feature

Closed 9 years ago.
Since Paypal developer changed in March 2013, I've been unable to get into the sandbox.
I logged in to the new developer site OK with my actual Paypal account details.
I managed to import my accounts into the new development site (marked worryingly as 'beta') using the link
"Looking for Sandbox? Import your test accounts to continue testing. Learn what's new."
But clicking the link 'Sandbox site' on any of the accounts results in me being taken to:
This is the link where I'm greeted with a Paypal Sandbox logo and a single link reading "Please log in to use the PayPal Sandbox features."
Clicking on this link takes you back to where you have come from - that is the developer page where I am already logged in.
I did raise a support question with Paypal, but a week has passed and it's gone unanswered, so I'm hoping someone here can tell me what I'm missing in this new version?

I'm unable to reproduce this. I'm logging into my sandbox accounts just fine. I'm also able to test things like Express Checkout without any issue.
I know that browser cache and cookies can often be a big issue on the sandbox. For example, when I first attempted to try this after seeing your post I was getting a Proxy Error when trying to load sandbox.paypal.com. I closed and re-opened my browser, though, and then everything worked as expected. Maybe give that a shot.

As Andrew Angell points out - this crazy behaviour was down to the web browser caching. I just cleared out everything in Chrome (Tools > Clear Browsing Data) and wiped everything since the beginning of time and that's got it. Nice catch, thanks Andrew. Appreciated.
The reason every browser I tried did this, is because I've used them all with Paypal - of course - so hence they all do the same thing, leading you to thing the issue is upstream.

Clear your cache and cookie simply by pressing
CTRL + SHIFT + DELETE for WINDOWS
COMMAND + SHIFT + DELETE for MAC
It works for me.

Clearing doesn't help me with this, USE CHROME INCOGNITO MODE(new window) - it works for me :)

Homepage header stopped displaying Ads on Desktop

I'm a blogger striving to make my website stable so that I start focusing on writing blogs. Currently, I'm facing several issues but I will be addressing the most important one here. I use auto ads on my website that worked perfectly since yesterday. Immediately, ads stopped working in the header section on the desktop. Although it is working on mobile but unable to display homepage ads, especially on desktop. I've tried disabling plugins to check if it conflicts with any of them, tried restoring a backup to a date where everything was working fine, and tried placing manual Adsense codes on my header section of the website, but nothing worked for me. I've no idea what just happened. Please someone assist me in a better way. Thanks for reading patiently.

Bixby Developer Studio keeps asking me to login

When I first launched Bixby Developer Studio, it greeted me with a startup screen with a Login button. I clicked on it and it opened a login page in my browser. I logged in that page using my Samsung developer account. The login was successful and a pop-up appeared asking me if I will allow the page to launch Developer Studio (which was already open at that point). I allowed it, but nothing happened; Developer Studio was still showing the startup screen.
I restarted the application but it again showed me that startup screen with the login button. If I click on the login button, it will just take me again to the login page in the browser. And then nothing would happen if I login again.
I'd suggest verifying if your browser is configured to accept cookies. If that information is verified and the problem still exists, there might be additional information in the ide.log file that can provide more insight
To get that information, follow these steps:
Note the time when you begin the next steps.
Go through the login process until you hit the point of failure.
From the IDE menu, click on Help -> Create Diagnostics Report. This
will popup a dialog that will point you to the location of the
diagnostics report, by default this location is
C:\Users\'User'\bixby-workspace\
Unzip the diagnostics report and look at the ide.log file for any
errors at the time of login.
Feel free to post the errors here or if you prefer, you can open a ticket with Bixby Support too.
There are a couple of points you could work on here -
In this case, I suggest you to keep the browser open in the background while clicking on the login button. I was facing the same issue and somehow it worked for me like this. This has been an issue on a Windows machine. On a Mac this problem is not faced till now.
You could restart the Bixby studio itself for logging in again.
Also, I suggest removing the browser cookies as told by shahnawaz above.
Do let us know if this still persists !
Thank you all for your suggestions. For some reason, it just started working right after I received dozens of Windows updates (it's been a few days since I logged in to my Windows account as I have been using Linux; I rarely use my Windows account now and I wish Bixby Studio was available in Linux too). So, I actually haven't tried any of your suggestions yet. Thanks again, anyways!

iTunesConnect hangs on TestFlight

I'm trying to reach TestFlight on iTunesConnect but it keeps only the loading spinner and do not show anything. I've tried with Chrome and Safari without success.
http://prntscr.com/8sv799
In my other application on the very same account everything works correctly.
I've already written to support waiting for their response.
My issue was resolved from the support team. They didn't provide me full details what caused this, however after sending them needed information(including page source code) they fixed it on next day.
So if you experience the same, I advise you to contact them(via iTunesConnect).

when we develop any website then it looks good at our end but client may view the page with different browser then he/she face problem. i search for tool or way by which i can view my pages from my local machine using different browser and different version. i found few web site provide this facility and saw they very slow and they are giving image of my page which i do not want rather i want to view my page in browser. so i want a tool which allow me to select browser and version and then show my page in that browser with specific version. i may change version and page should refresh for changing browser or version. i hope there must be many tool available but unfortunately i not getting right single one. can anyone guide me. thanks
Adobe shut down BrowserLab a few weeks ago, but provided some guidance for other services that you can use on this page. There there are the Spoon.net browser sandboxes, but it installs the VM on your computer and I never liked that.
I personally use VMWare virtual machines with olders versions of IE on Windows, and Safari on a Mac VM. A little more effort to set this up, but I find it works best.

Windows Live ID Continue Button Broken

We have a production web application that uses Windows Live ID as its authentication mechanism. For several months now, it has been working great. However, in early August, we suddenly started experiencing a serious problem...
If the user is already signed into Windows Live (via our app in another window, or a different Windows Live app) and navigates to our site, a continue button appears. It says "You're already signed in", and lets the user click Continue and be redirected to our site. In early August, this continue button stopped working. You click it and it does nothing. We didn't change anything in our code, and lo and behold we're not the only ones experiencing this problem: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/wliddev/thread/15405d0d-8c14-4e10-821b-55c3bae580bc
It's clearly a bug in Microsoft's page. What we need is a workaround - our customers quite literally can't get to our app if they are already signed into Windows Live. They have to go to a different website, sign out and then go back to ours. You can imagine that this is a pain, and makes us think twice about using Windows Live as an auth mechanism.
Pending Microsoft's bugfix, we are dead in the water and having to explain this to customers. We are looking for workarounds and working on our own.. our current solution is, 'Make sure you're not signed into Windows Live when you go to our web app.' Less than ideal. Any ideas?
Thanks!
This has been fixed by Microsoft.
