Windows Laptop and Mac Desktop - on the MAC passwords not working
My passwords for several accounts/websites work on my Windows 8.1 laptop but when I enter those same account names and passwords on the MAC it keeps saying WRONG PASSWORD OR NAME. That includes logging on to Firefox here btw - can't do it from my MAC
How can I fix this - it is very annoying.
Thanks if you can help I appreciate it.

Verify that the Mac has the proper passwords.
Some web sites will not allow the same user login from more then one system. Especially at the same time. Try logging out on the good computer.

I am typing in the correct names/passwords myself so that I know they are correct. I'll follow through on your suggestions - thanks.
