I'm putting together a webpage where employees can change/reset their LDAP passwords. Firefox asks if the user wants to generate a random one.

being an LDAP password, having their Firefox browser generate and manage it would not be practical as not all services using the LDAP password don't all run in Firefox.

I had to reconstruct my passwords. Today while creating a new password and sign in for Clev. Clinic, each time i created a new password, I went to the password manger "show password" for that site, it was gobbly gook? Then it occurred to me this might be "encryption". Is the password manager now encrypting PW's? OR could it be the Clev. Clinic site doing this? Do you know

cannot delete outdated username on my bank account or replace it

I have a Scotiabank account. Its login name is my CC or rather debit card number. I got a new card with a new number. FF will not let me change the old one to the new one. So I went through Safari and entered the new one by hand, which allowed me to do my online banking a day or two ago.

I want to use FF and to change the number, because FF is my default browser and I like it.

thanks, Shelly Errington [email address]

Why the hell do I have to keep signing in to show my passwords? I do not sign out but yet when I try to sign in to anything that I've used a password before the damn thing is not there. I'm getting disgusted with firefox and I've used it only for many years but you keep screwing around with something that worked fine and now it's all screwed up. I wish you would just leave things alone. I was having a problem with getting my bookmarks and favorites but it appears that has been fixed. I had to delete and re-install farefox several times to get all that back but lately it's staying there.

Firefox Blocking 1 Password password manager

I just purchased 1Password because I need a password manager. I like Firefox and want to continue using it as my browser. My operating system is Windows 11 on a new Dell laptop.

But when I try to use the 1Password icon in the browser to save login information, I get only 3 choices: monitor, relay, and Firefox VPN. None works for 1Password.

I am very frustrated about this and hope my fellow Firefoxers can help me. I am disappointed Firefox offers no tech support.

I have many on-line accounts, but the Password Manager prohibits acct name, & note (for purpose, date, reference, etc), allowing only a URL, UId, & Pw. It is like having a hundred unremarkable keys on a 10# key ring. Can you think of any way to get around this problem, or better, can the PM have even one more field for user use, if only to name or link to a local account file?
