Hi Goldie78, it's Options on Windows, and Preferences on Mac and Linux.

Are you looking for a way to:

  • Delete a saved login
  • Clear cookies for a site
  • Something else

Clear Saved Logins

You can do that here:

  • Mac: "3-bar" menu button (or Firefox menu) > Preferences
  • Windows: "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options
  • Linux: "3-bar" menu button (or Edit menu) > Preferences
  • Any system: type or paste about:preferences into the address bar and press Enter/Return to load it

In the left column, click "Privacy & Security".

Then on the right side, in the "Logins & Passwords" section, click the "Saved Logins" button. Then remove your Google account if it's saved there.

Clear a Site's Cookies

You can do that here:

  • Mac: "3-bar" menu button (or Firefox menu) > Preferences
  • Windows: "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options
  • Linux: "3-bar" menu button (or Edit menu) > Preferences
  • Any system: type or paste about:preferences into the address bar and press Enter/Return to load it

In the left column, click "Privacy & Security".

Then on the right side, in the "Cookies and Site Data" section, click the "Manage Data" button. You can remove cookies and other data stored on your Firefox by Google here.

Hello Goldie78,

If that means that your problem is solved : would you be so kind as to mark jscher2000's post as Chosen Solution (you now marked it as "Helpful")  ?

It's the "Solved the problem" button to the right of that post .....
