If you replace the wrong password with the new password then Firefox should offer to store the new password via the bar at the top.

  • Use the Remember Password bookmarklet on websites that use "autocomplete=off" to prevent Firefox from saving passwords.
  • Verify that Firefox has stored the new password: Tools > Options > Security: Passwords: "Saved Passwords" > "Show Passwords"

If that didn't work then remove that name and password in the Password Manager and Firefox should offer to save the new password on the next visit or after reloading the login page.
If you have problems with remembering a new password then make sure that you remove all entries from that server (look for an empty name as well) and also check the exceptions to make sure that the site is not listed there.
