Changed my Firefox password and now it shows me as a GUEST. I'm the Primary User. How can I fix this?

I had to change my password in order to get my new Verizon phone to read my email. The phone works fine now but Firefox shows me as a GUEST at the top of the home page. I should be the Primary User. I made the same change on my wifes computer and her's came out ok.

Not in my case. I sign in, out and back in but still a guest. I ran clean up, defrag and cused at it in three languages. I'm old (75) and cranky and ready to dump Firefox. I have used it for years but this is a #%@#! Any other suggestions?
