Problems signing in to Pocket

If you have increased privacy settings in Firefox, you may find yourself stuck in a loop when you click the Pocket button.

  1. In the Menu bar at the top of the screen, click Firefox and then select Preferences or Settings, depending on your macOS version.Click the menu button Fx89menuButton and select Settings.
  2. Click the Privacy & Security panel.
  3. Under History, choose Use custom settings for history in the drop-down list, and uncheck Always use private browsing mode if it is check marked (you'll be prompted to restart Firefox).
  4. Click the Manage Exceptions… button in the Cookies and Site Data section.
  5. Enter getpocket.com in the Address of website field, then click Allow.
  6. Click Save Changes to finish.
    Note: If you prefer not to change your privacy settings, you can manually save a page to Pocket. See Saving to Pocket manually for instructions.
