LastPass Firefox Extension Functions Not Working


Running Mint 17.3 32bit and Firefox 53.0.2. I installed the LastPass extension (Version: 4.1.49) but since the recent update (5-3-17) some functions are not working. I cannot export my passwords into a CVS file only a text file which does me no good. I also have the settings to logout after my browser is idle for a certain period of time. That does not work either. While reading I found out that these along with other functions you need the "Binary Component" installed which I checked and Lastpass states "Binary Component: false". I downloaded the zip file " lplinux.tar.bz2" but I am lost from that point on. Any help would be appreciated.
Tks
Dennis

Uninstall whatever you installed and point your browser at https://lastpass.com
or in browser's addons area, search for it.
There is no need to download lplinux.tar.bz2.

Please try again.

I "removed" the Lastpass extension from Firefox. I cleared all my cache, cookies, etc. and downloaded Lastpass from the site link you provided. Still NG. When I try and export my passwords it opens up a new tab in my browser with all the passwords, etc in text form. It won't download to a CVS file.

Does the same here, after Master Password. LP 4.1.49
Opens in a tab in the browser, parsed in CSV format.
At this point, you'd have to File > Save As > and name it with a .csv extension.

I was able to follow your instructions and save the file and open it up in a spreadsheet. The auto log off function when the browser is idle for a set period of time is still not functioning. The binary function supports features as described in the link below. Tks for your help with the CSV file.

Glad it worked out.

I still can't seem to get past "Binary Component: false"

Thumbs down Lastpass not logging out

I haven't tested the export functionality, but my Lastpass stopped logging out after the set interval, as well. Now I have to manually logout. I'm running Mint 18.1 Cinnamon and using Firefox 53.0.2.
