Firefox Community Forum

I got access to the password management page when i was connected to the Internet，but once i use it in limited web environment，whichi think i have problem connecting the mozilla serve，the entire password page will not be displayed，like full page blank

Please Help - I'm doing something wrong. Firefox makes me log in to websites when I have saved the password and kept the cookies. Why? Obviously I don't understand firefox's password procedures.

In my settings my user name and password are saved for specific sites. (others I have set to Never remember) Password options are set as follows: Ask to save passwords - ticked Fill usernames and passwords automatically - ticked Suggest strong passwords - ticked Suggest Firefox Relay email masks to protect your email address - ticked Show alerts about passwords for breached websites - ticked Require device sign in to fill and manage passwords - not ticked Use a Primary Password - not ticked Allow Windows single sign-on for Microsoft, work, and school accounts - not ticked

Cookies and Site Data settings are: Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed - ticked In the “Exceptions”/ Exceptions for Cookies and site data option all the web sites which I want to keep and log in automatically are listed with “allow” In other words, I am trying to delete Cookies by default, but keep them for these specific websites, as an exception.

I therefore expect Firefox to automatically log me into those specific websites when I visit them So why does Firefox make me log in again every time I visit those specific websites?

I am able to save passwords during a Firefox session but when I close Firefox and then open it again the passwords are all gone.

I have checked settings for Privacy and Security and have tried various combinations including Remember History and a variety of combinations under Use Custom Settings for History.

I am running Firefox 137.0 (64-bit) under Windows.

Any assistance gratefully received. This is an annoying and time-consuming problem.

Thanks!

When logging into web sites the manage password box comes down when I put in my username. I accidentally opened it and wallah my password screen appeared I was able to cut and paste the password and had to manually close the window. I don't believe it was very secure and I want to get ridge of it all together.

Anyone who knows your email can access every account because of that little box. Please tell me I'm wrong but I don't want password manager on my browser.

After the last Linux upgrade to 36.0.2 the password or user name hot links only work once. The first time the link is gray and will activate. The second time I try and use this feature the link is not gray and will not activate.

Every time this happens I have to close Firefox and reopen it. Then I get one more shot at auto loading a password before it stops working.

The latest firefox desktop update seems to have induced difficulties for my password manager:

1) under the menu tab, clicking 'passwords' opens a new page as if no passwords had ever been used (it has previously held an extensive collection of my various passwords).

2) Also, firefox not asking for my primary password and seems to have no record of it.

    *Other profile info (saved pages, firefox preferences) looked intact.  

3) following instructions from the mozilla help pages, i refreshed the current profile, then searched for previous profile. none of the other profiles had the missing passwords.

Please, help me find & recover my lost passwords!

Thank you!

fire fox browser used to have a copy and paste option on the tool bar. Now I have no way to copy and paste passwords which is awfully hard for me to do. I am 78yrs and struggling. Otherwise I love my browser and find it easy to use. Please help in a way that doesn't confuse the heck out of me. Thanks in advance.

I have a new e-mail address, so I'm updating all the entries in my about:logins list of passwords. There are a couple of moz-extension entries with very long codes as part of the name. When I click on these in the left-hand column, it appears in the main part of the window where I can edit or remove it. For regular website entries I can click on the link to take me to the site, but with the moz-extension entries I can't do that. Can these be deleted? Thanks!

How can manually add a web address and password to the saved passwords list? When I visit one particular website I need to enter the password and the SAVE PASSWORD popup doesn't come up.
