Every time I close a tab like Facebook or Gmail or whatever, if I haven't logged off my computer, if I go back to Facebook or whatever site, I have to re-log back in! It's like my password and username disappear and this is my home computer. How do I get it back to normal?

I am using a primary password. However the password is required when I open Firefox as well as for password protected websites I visit. Is there a way to not have to put in the primary password every time I open Firefox? I feel duplicate protection is unnecessary and time consuming.

Thank you.

I've had trouble with this in the past where logging into Ring won't let me get past my user name/email address. I can hit enter, reload the page, try using tab but nothing works. Then for some unknown reason it will go forward to the password. But this time it just won't let me proceed no matter what I do, the continue option stays grayed out. I can sign on using Edge but I don't want to use Edge or even have a second browser open just so I can see my security camera. I want Firefox to work correctly.

Good afternoon,

I have read in an article a statement that Primary Password encrypts all saved logins, therefore it is safer and recommended to use it. Well, I observed that it does not really matter if the password is set for the contents of logins.json, it does not change. What exactly is encrypted by Primary Password and how does it improve security?

I also tried to set the same password for different websites (I used a different mail tho) and the output in logins.json is different, which is even more confusing to me.

The output itself is kind of strange, the first part of it seems to be the same for almost all entries and looks like that: MEoEEPgAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAEwFAYIKoZIhvcNAwc.

I have multiple gmail accounts and I don't always have them open on every tab. For some reason, every few days at random, whenever I swap to a different gmail account I keep receiving the message.


"The page isn’t redirecting properly

An error occurred during a connection to mail.google.com.

This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies."


I double checked if my cookies are blocked, and they werent. I am currently on standard tracking protection. I have tried removing my cookies and history and they work temporarily, but then the issue happens again after a few days.

I don't think my extensions are causing the problem either unless Adnauseum is changing something? I don't have any scripts running from Tampermonkey either.

Please help, this is getting irritating having to delete my history and cookies over and over again.

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?

I did a clean Windows reinstall on my computer and I forgot Mozilla account password, so I asked a password reset. It went fine, but my bookmarks and password were not syncing. I thought sync server is slow or similar, but nothing happened after 2-3 hours.

I searched on Google and found that a password reset deletes everything.

Developers! Are you f*cking serious if you don't warn the users when they are doing password reset if that will delete everything?????? I f*cking can't believe that!

I lost hundreds of passwords and bookmarks. That is f*cking insane!
