I have no problem with previous version of ff. i noticed ask to save password not showing up in this version. usually if i fill in a form, ff will save the information for future use.

i have issue with ff, so i uninstall and reinstall. doesnt work. i add additional information in notepad attachment.

i am end user. nothing technical. only uses ublock, clearurl and audio equaliser. not heavy user. just light browsing facebook, google and regular website.

Dear Mozilla,

I have a question, Can i keep save passwords everywhere? 'Cuz i'm not sure if i can keep saved passwords everywhere....

Thanks a lot for understanding!

Firefox is not saving my passwords. Every time I start up my laptop, all the saved passwords are gone. I have tried a refresh and a new install as well, but the problem persists. I have to sync to my other machine to restore them.

Hi everyone, since I enabled two-factor authentication (2FA) on my email accounts at web.de and gmx.de, I can no longer use these accounts reliably in Mozilla Thunderbird.

I set up the accounts using an application-specific password (a so-called "one-time password"), as provided by web.de/gmx.de when 2FA is active. The initial setup works, and I can send and receive emails for a short time. But shortly after, Thunderbird asks me for a new password again — and this keeps repeating.

I also tried using my regular account password, but of course that doesn’t work either, since Thunderbird has no way of entering the second authentication step required by 2FA.

Interestingly, everything works fine on my smartphone with the Bluemail app. There I can use the application-specific password permanently without any issues.

Does anyone have an idea what's going on? Could it be that Thunderbird doesn’t properly store or maintain sessions for app passwords? Or is there another workaround?

Thanks in advance!

Technical details (unchanged during setup): Incoming Mail: Server type: IMAP Server: imap.web.de Port: 993 Security: SSL/TLS Authentication method: Normal password

I think that I have been using Thunderbird as an email client for many many years from the early 2000's. And due to my ignorance I never provided a password for the servers in my Pop 3 I left the box blank , and the same on my Imap account. I note that it always said that the password was insecure,which is not surprising as there was no password. Now this year I updated my Ubuntu LTS to the latest LTS 2404. And something went wrong as I lost the Dual Boot facility and Windows 10. Which I had had for many years. And as of about March this year I no longer have thunderbird send to my computer any copy of emails that I send and that are sent to me. I have no doubt that it is my fault. . I have purchased a Laptop from Holland with only Ubuntu on it and that as of July this year also does not send to it this new Laptop any copies of emails that I send or that are sent to me. I was with NTLworld from the early 2000's and am now with Virginmedia.com. And they have recently merged with O2, and I have a new sign in Password and Identity . And I am unable to find the old password that I used to sign in to Virginmedia. I understand that due to cost cutting they might in future do away with providing emails for their clients in the first instance. I would really like to be able to restore Thunderbird if possible.But at 81 yrs old my comprehension is no longer what it was Regards Cliff Edwards. my Ntlworld.com email is cm.edwards1@ntlwold.com.

Hi, I just updated by account with 2FA

The stored passwords are all lost now, I can still see them in my phone (unsynced due to logged out) but cannot see any password in my PC.

Please help
