I have two e mails, but when i try to go to my secondary email [email 1 removed]@gmail.com i always get my primary one, [email 2 removed]@gmail.com. why?

Bank site allows autofill for username but does not allow autofill or manual fill for password. Access to the site worked fine 3 weeks ago. Autofill works with MS Edge.

FF 147.0.1 (64-bit) Linux mint 22.3

Hi everyone, for some time (~2weeks) I have the issue that I don't get any autofill-information in login screens.

I checked the relevant settings/passwords/"Fill usernames and passwords automatically" (OK) I deleted my ff profile and reinstalled ff. (whereas here it worded briefly) I disabled all plugins (only have "uBlock Origin" running at the moment)

I'm pretty puzzled, does anyone have any ideas? Best, Stefan

Hello !

How can I retrieve password and usernames that are saved in the login forms of visited websites ?

I know how to see "password and login" in Mozilla settings (Private life & Security / Saved Passwords).

But on some websites, the connection to my account is automatic : password and usernames are saved in the login forms (like cookies may be ?), and they are not present in Mozilla setting and Saved Passwords.

I didn't find anything in the web on my request.

Is it possible te recover this recorded data ?

Thank you by advance.

First I tried all the suggestions I could find. And FF just kept double filling the password. So I did a completely fresh FF install to a separate folder with no cookies or passwords or anything saved, and never any extensions installed. Still double fills the password -- which makes it impossible to log in. I am using FF Portable, and tried both the latest version and an older version. What could possibly be doing this?

The Firefox auto login of a default site feature has become a supreme annoyance. Being insufficiently Firefox savvy to be able to disable this unhelpful feature (in my case). Can someone please help with avoiding or disabling this feature so that the initial site selection is left to the user, other than totally avoiding Firefox which I otherwise find highly functional and enjoyable.

It's very hard for me to find where to go after clicking on the three line symbol in right hand corner. But when I finally did locate in Settings the section on passwords and sign-in info I turned that off. I was happy until I again signed into Mozilla and Amazon and my email address (which I use for ID) continued to pop up. Why do these things have to be so hard to find and then to make work. Please help. Thank you.

I log in periodically to a specific web site, in which I have an account. Recently, I cancelled (deleted) that account. I also deleted in the Firefox parameters that URL/login/password, and all related cookies. Later, I created a new account on that web site, using Firefox in private mode only, and it works fine. But Firefox prompts, in the login field of that web site, the old account, although for all I know there is no trace of it in the parameters. Not only do I use it in private mode, I also tested using a VPN - just in case the prompt would come from the remote website - and it still prompts that ancient login. Why is that prompt appearing and how do I get rid of it (without affecting all the other websites I use without a problem)? Thanks.

I have firefox as my default browser with Bitwarden extension. I use yahoo and sign in for browser. I also have outlook for email. Maybe a month back, when signing into yahoo, I would type in the first few letters and bitwarden login options would appear. They still do but selecting one seems to do nothing now. If I open bitwarden and try autofill from the login file, it says it cannot autofill, items must be copied and pasted. Its odd that in yahoo home page login the options appear but do not autofill as they used to maybe a month ago.

In doing some trouble shooting they had me clear my cash and I now have to enter the login info for each program where in he past FF entered it automatically.

I can find no way to get FF to do so again.

Hello Firefox helpers!

I save my login details for various websites in Firefox version 144.0.2. Normally, I navigate to the login area of a website, and Firefox suggests the right username and password, and I just have to select the correct username.

For the past few days, I have had to enter my username and password manually to log in. The functionality for saving usernames and passwords is no longer working correctly.

In the settings dialogue some check boxes are greyed out. See attached screenshot.

What is wrong with my firefox?

Best regards Günter

I've just tried to open 2 frequently used sites where my username and password come up automatically, but they are not doing that now. Could you please see that I am still registered for Firefox or did someone place me in another browser without my permission?

I now have to right click the password field and select which password I want to use, this is cumbersome and counterintuitive, there is NO hint that password autofill is still there, WTF? if you're dead set on this "new way", how can I have the old way back?

Thanks!
