Help me recover my passwords to sign in ! I fear that i might have mangled them Myself . I am 83 years old and have several passwords and passkeys tucked away but probably got them messed up while trying to reset my computer that i got from my daughter 6 months ago ! It appears that i have completely messed up the CPU and i really need help! My step daughter who is back in china now Is hard to communicate with. She has the other processor with her. I wish there was some way to get back on line ! Please try and help ! My phone number is [edited phone# from public community support forum] if that can help

at first I thought my passwords did not transfer from safari to Firefox . Firefox said that I'm all signed in and everything is good. If not, please let me know. thanks

When I export Passwords the file has 3 col timeCreated timeLastUsed timePasswordChanged

that do not show as date or time format - I try formatting in excel and no good.. Yes I hit convert when opening the csv vis excel Thank you

I accidentally deleted a login username and password in my password list. Is there a way to recover that password?

Many thanks in advance for any suggestions.

You sent me an email that says I have successfully created a password on "Windows 10" "I have Windows 11" ?? I need tech support because I don't know how to log into my account. Can I get a call at [edited phone# from public community support forum]. Name Paul Yoshida.

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 set my Primary Password, and when I open Firefox, the Password dialog opens asking for it. However, if I hit "Cancel", or just close the dialog box, lthe password is bypassed and Firefox opens as normal.

I recently installed a new version of Firefox as advised on opening my browser. Since the new version was installed I am now missing very important passwords and all the bookmarks from my other bookmarks folder. I have tried going through the trouble shooting procedures but without success, I'm just being sent round in circles. I have been using Firefox for the past eleven years and have never experienced losing any passwords or bookmarks in the past.

Hi, I need to reinstall my windows, I forget my Firefox account and create a new one and lost all my saved password. Is there any way to retrieve it? I create Firefox account ofc to save the password, but if the account cannot save the password whats the point to create an account.

Recently I have been getting this message and being blocked out of sign in ability at some sites after the last update. Error: Google reCAPTCHA verification failed, please try again later

How do I get rid of this? Please be specific.

When I login to my Virgin Mobile Canada account (at https://www.virginplus.ca/myAccount/logon-smart.do), it displays the error:

Bad Request

Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand. Size of a request header field exceeds server limit. The URL for the error message starts with https://www.ges.bell.ca/siteminderagent/SmMakeCookie.ccc?SMSESSION=

After getting the error, when I got back to https://myaccount.virginplus.ca/, I find that I am logged in. Also, I do not get this error with Edge.

Cheers,

Had to give up using Firefox because I can't open CenturyLink Email. Being told login does not match, but when I use the login on another browser, works fine. It does no good to change password as it will only open one time and then goes back to login does not match. I miss Firefox browser but must get to my Email. Help if you can! Jack Jackson
