Firefox Community Forum

At login some websites don't accept the username saved in Firefox (because they also don't accept typed in usernames). They require to select the username from a drop down list. (In my case it's a specific government portal with limited users, which are all in the drop down list). When I type in my username it will appear in the drop down list (which is actually only one field tall by then). But it is covered by Firefox's saved login button (which also pops up at the same spot). So I can't access the drop down list. Is there any way I can avoid the saved login suggestion from popping up?

My bank website asks for pin and password codes but each character option displays the fancy Firefox symbol which I can;t delete. The passwords for the site have never been saved but I can't enter the correct password characters because I can't override the symbol. I'm having to access this bank account on Chrome unfortunately. Most frustrating because the website is not listed in "Saved passwords" so I can't edit it! Thanks Mike Bathgate

I currently use an extension to fill passwords, so I have passwords in firefox turned off. However, one of my logins shows an 'eye' which I believe is firefox wanting to provide the password. I don't know how the eye got there, as all my other logins work with the extension. I have to go to the extension and physically copy the password to paste it in the password box. If I go to firefox settings, I have no passwords set. How do I get rid of the 'eye' for that login?

How do I remove this annoying box?

And before anyone ask that is not visual glitch, I just censor the text it save, because it is saving my recovery code for my Google account 💀

Anyway how to disable that annoying box? And for good

I have an issue that up to recently, if I went to a website that needing logging in, it occurred seamlessly and the page would open. Now, even though I've checked that the login and passwords are correct and are saved, they do not automatically log in... I must do it manually for any website requiring a name and password. Even on the same day, if I leave that page, I must once again log in manually. I have rebooted, clean the cashe for each website, deleted and reentered the log in and password. This includes both Facebook and X which I view more than once per day. My operating system and Firefox are up to date. Thank you~ Susan

For neither of the two web pages below can I get Firefox to autofill a successfully stored username and password.

I've tried inputting the login information and answering yes when Firefox asks to save. I've also tried to manually enter the URLs and login information into the Firefox password manager.

I've also set up custom permissions for each site - allow popups, location, etc etc. And I've turned OFF Enhanced Tracking Protection entirely for both.

In ONE instance, I went to the page, and Firefox HAD entered username and password. But as soon as I logged in, the bank in question sent a 6 digit text in order to reach my account. That was successful, but upon attempting a later login, autofill was no longer working.

The websites are acting as one would hope with Safari - MacOS is offering to enter the password.

Hello Mozilla Community, Every time I want to log in to Samsung.com and eu.community.samsung.com/t5/deutsch/ct-p/de, I have to re-enter my email address. The password is suggested. I'm not asked if I want to save my login credentials, but I'm asked for it on all other websites. I prefer Firefox to EDGE (it's suggested in EDGE). It's like this on Windows 10 and on my other computer with Windows 11 (both 64-bit and both up to date). What do I have to do so that Firefox also suggests the email address on these sites (asking whether it should be saved)? And I use a translation program from German to English. Again, thank you in advance for your reply.

Firefox Version 139.0.4 (64-bit)

Its been an issue for me for quite a while. Seems to occur for some websites. But it's getting to a point where it feels like every website is encountering this issue.

Firefox does a good job storing password and usernames when creating said username and password. But it will never suggest a username...

A similar topic is, how can I make firefox autofill username for websites?

Every time the browser autofills a password it asks me for my Windows password. I don't want this behavior, as this makes password autofill completely pointless. How do I disable this "feature"?

I am logged in on my Firefox account and have lots of stored passwords. On the Settings page the checkmark next to "Suggest strong password" is checked and so it SHOULD suggest strong passwords. However, I'm just creating a new account on a website and Firefox isn't automatically suggesting a strong password, even when I start typing! How do I get Firefox to suggest a strong password?

"autofill logins & passwords"

Recently firefox updated to v139.0.4 (64bit) after the update I disabled "autofill logins & passwords" but every time I turn on the pc the username/login, on webpages (amazon,facebook. webmail), populates the field.

I never had this issue until the update, previous version "autofill logins & passwords" has always been disabled ie never shows...

I do NOT want the logon info for "autofill logins & passwords" populated...

On some websites, when logging in, my browser will suggest emails and passwords to log in. How do I turn this off? It's really annoying. It does it in private browsing windows as well. I've already deleted all passwords and disabled the password manager in Firefox, but it still happens for some reason.

I have an autofill issue with certain websites. When I go to that website, the search feature automatically fills in with my password. Obviously, I don't want my password publicly showing up on the site. I have deleted history, cookies, cache, etc...but for whatever reason when I go to this specific website my password will automatically be showing up in the search feature. How do I get rid of this?

Thank you to anyone that helps.

Hello All, just switched to Firefox and like it a lot. However, one thing I cannot figure out ... how to make it remember log-in email or username, but NOT saving any passwords. I googled and many answers are outdated (2014) ... non made a change anyways. - Unchecked "Delete Cookies when Firefox closes" - Under Passwords: I unchecked "Ask To Save Passwords" - Under Autofill: "Save and Fill Addresses" - Checked - I added my entire mailing address and email in "Save Addresses" - "Save and Fill Payment Methods" - Unchecked - Under History: "Remember Browsing and Download History" and "Remember Search and Form History" ...

  both checked.

These settings seam to be most logical for what I want but it still does not work. What I'm talking about is, e.g., when I sign in to Amazon I'm expecting to already see my email or at least after typing the first letter. That's how it was in the previous browser. (FYI: required password field/sign-in is replaced by Windows pin)

What am I doing wrong? Please advise.

Thanks

Somehow, my sign-in on Coinbase is now asking for me to insert a USB device into my computer as a passkey, and that is there because of Mozilla Firefox. I tried a couple weeks ago to sign in, after my phone was broken, and in the process this new way of requiring me to have some USB device came about, now I cannot log into my Coinbase account, cannot buy or sell, do anything because Mozilla is requiring me to use a non-existent USB drive with a digital passkey. I cannot call and talk to Coinbase, and I have no idea how to reach Mozilla to cancel this either.
