I mistakenly saved a wrong password for a website and overwrote the previous saved password which was the real password. Now I cannot get into that website. Is there a way to access the history of saved passwords for a website to view my older password?

EDITED1 IS IT MORE CLEAR ? Hello everybody, its my first question here! I am using the Firefix password manager and it allows me to store passwords within firefox. And with the general password of password manager, I am able to view and copy passwords. For one website, I changed the password, but made an error. When I do login on that website, password manager lets appear different options with dates. See screenshot on link.These dates dont appear when I open the password manager. Now I can stil login on that website when I choose a former date of 23 avril on the list. How can I copy this password? Have a beautiful day... or night ! Xavier

I like using Firefox but it is increasingly becoming incompatible with more and more websites. There is nothing wrong with the websites, I can login using Google Chrome just fine. Firefox simply won't allow me to login to certain websites that I was able to access using Firefox before. Anyone know why this is happening?

Whenever I sign in to sync my browser it keeps asking me to sign in again to reconnect to sync.

I've tried reinstalling the browser, deleting the Mozilla directory in %APPDATA% and reinstalling, removing account and signing in again.

No matter what I do I keep getting asked to sign in again to reconnect even though the initial sign in was successful.

How can i download a pdf of my passwords. I think i need to set up a lock screen first. Please give precise instructions how to accomplish both these tasks. Im having great difficulty signing in and out of sites so until i figure out how and why things have changed i need a list of passwords. My device is currently unlocked. I have trouble finding my way back to my questions here. Why doesnt firefox have a history function? Sometimes it does but its not recent. I put all these questions together because its too difficult finding my way back to every individual question. I have a hundred questions about firefox so many that its daunting to consider as it would take me days to do and its time i dont have. Somehow my firefox account has gotten too confusing and complex

Norton recently issued a major update to their Norton 360 software. Since then the passwords that I saved in Firefox's password manager do not work. I go to the webpage and the passwords simply do not show up and cannot be used. Did Norton suddenly block the Firefox password and sign in function? Call me Puzzled.

Until the other day I was able to simply sign in to my various Yahoo email accounts password by using my 1Password saved password. Now,when I try to log into my Yahoo email accounts I get a popup window (see attached screen-print) saying that Windows Security wants to make sure it's me and that "This request comes from Firefox, published by Mozilla Corporation. Insert your security key into the USB port." Then I have to click the "Cancel" button, click "Try signing in another way" link and I can then sign in as I use to with my 1Password stored password.

These extra steps that are now required to sign-in to my Yahoo email accounts is very annoying and frustrating.
