429 Too Many Requests You have sent too many requests in a given amount of time.
Hi, Hopefully someone can help. This started a couple of days ago. I'm actually trying to log in to my own account on Flickr. If I just input Flickr.com, the main front page loads, if I then go to log in, I get: "429 Too Many Requests You have sent too many requests in a given amount of time" on the screen. I've only hit enter once. As far as I can see this is the only site that does this BUT Youtube sometimes plays up, so maybe something is happening in the back ground with that. Might be totally unconnected.
I've tried using Opera (my main back up) and that loads my account just fine. I've tried turning off the extensions Adblock, No Script etc and the 429 error still pops up everytime I go to log in..
Any ideas? Anyone?
Thanks in advance. Graham

You can check the connection settings and check for possible issues with a Proxy or VPN service.
- Settings -> General -> Network: Connection -> Settings
If you do not need to use a Proxy to connect to internet, select "No Proxy" if "Use the system proxy settings" or one of the others do not work properly.

Thanks for the reply.
I haven't used a proxy since year dot and with my connection, 500mb up and down, really would never see the need.
I've actually managed to resolve this. Turned out FF was wanting to update. Since running the update. I can log in again.
I might add I actually had to do a manual update. The update that comes up in 'About FF' seem to be stuck in a loop. I would click the Restart to update FF and all it did was go round in a circle. Restart, with no update taking place. I see it is now asking me to restart FF yet again. I'm on ver 129.0.1. I'll see where I end up.
Cheers
