Hello, I wish to describe the problem with the display of imported certificates in certificate manager in the latest version of firefox.

Here is the sequence of events as it occurred - 1. Few weeks back i installed my Personal Certificate which was automatically visible in the Certificate Manager of Firefox. 2. Few days back i installed Penango. 3. Two days back i installed Comodo free email certificate in Internet Explorer. Then i exported it (Personal Information Exchange with key & with chain) to a folder. Then i opened the Certificate Manager in Firefox and imported it successfully along with the keys (as per the window notification during importing). However the certificate is not visible in the certificate manager of Firefox.

Kindly help in resolving this issue. Thanks.

Did you check all the tabs in the Certificate Manager?

  • Tools > Options > Advanced : Encryption: Certificates - View Certificates

Does another reimport confirm that the certificate is already installed?

Yes, i have checked according to "Tools > Options > Advanced : Encryption: Certificates - View Certificates ". Only one of my personal certificate is shown. In total i have 4 personal digital certificates. All 4 are shown in the certificate manager of my other browsers (Internet Explorer 8 and Google Chrome).

And yes another import of the other three certificates showed that the they are already installed.

If you need any more information please feel free to ask me. Thanks for your help.
