I use an independent password manager to store my passwords and prefer it over Firefox's because it has a highly customizable generator for creating new passwords. However whenever I am on a new site, Firefox pops up with a prompt to generate a secure new password (it appears as a drop-down from the item text box). My password manager also creates a pop up/drop down, but it is hidden behind Firefox's and I cannot access it. I need to be able to disable the secure password generator prompt. Please take a look at my excellently annotated screenshot, attached.

literally what the [expletive] was the thought process in making it so that when u import all ur passwords from a csv it AUTOMATICALLY DELETES "DUPLICATES" WITHOUT CHECKING AT ALL WHICH ONE IS CORRECT. I HAVE SO MANY [expletive] PASSWORDS THAT ARE WRONG BECAUSE UR [expletive] BROWSER DOESNT ALLOW ME TO [expletive] MANUALLY CHANGE THAT STUPID OPTION. WHAT THE [expletive] WAS THE THOUGHT PROCESS IN MAKING IT [expletive] AUTOMATIC???

I have a new e-mail address, so I'm updating all the entries in my about:logins list of passwords. There are a couple of moz-extension entries with very long codes as part of the name. When I click on these in the left-hand column, it appears in the main part of the window where I can edit or remove it. For regular website entries I can click on the link to take me to the site, but with the moz-extension entries I can't do that. Can these be deleted? Thanks!

Why all of a sudden I cannot reacht my saved passwords anymore. Also it does nit prefill the saved passwords anymore when going to a website. How come Firefox/Mozilla keeps changing these essential things?? It makes it very much so less productive.

I've included a screenshot of what I get when clikcing on the Password tab. The information displayed in this wcreen also does not work. Clicking on Sync, does just nothing, just showing Sync in grey... Clicking on Login above just show this screen screen again. Useless.

I exported the passwords from Firefox to a .CSV file. I brought the CSV file into Excel. The 3 rightmost columns are labelled timeCreated timeLastUsed timePasswordChanged. The contents appear to be 13 digit integers like 1459431833997 (in Firefox this shown as 'Mar 31, 2016').

Is there a way to have those a human-readable date fields?

i cant export them when i click on the button it open a little window which i then confirm and then nothing happens. if i click the little eyes to see the passwords nothing happens if i click the edit buttons nothing happens. the copy buttons don't work. the only thing that still works is the auto fill.

Recently returned to Firefox from a detour in Chrome. One thing that Alphabet was doing that I was satisfied with was their password manager. It suggested complex passwords. Is there a similar feature in Firefox?

when trying to access my pension account after I have entered my details, the account asks for my PIN. I cannot enter a number as password manager pops up with the 'manage password box'.

I have a small usability suggestion regarding browser password managers.

When a website changes its domain (for example, from example-old.com to example-new.com), existing saved login entries keep the old domain. In many browsers, users cannot edit the domain field of the saved login.

As a result, users must delete the existing password and create a new one, which is inconvenient when managing many accounts.

A simple improvement would be to allow editing the domain/URL field of an existing saved login entry.

Example: example-old.com → example-new.com

Instead of deleting the login, users could just update the domain.

It’s a small feature, but it would significantly improve password management usability.

Thanks for your work on building great products.

alright having so many bloody sign in for everything i tend to track of what sign in i use for admin purposes... and the password manager is misaligned for stuff and it saves passwords all the time without logging the login...

so Mozilla is the I AM amd the aws is the root

I am a little off kelter...

Um, please forgive my verbal diarrhea, and I just want to get to the bottom of it

people manager has over 200 logins..

maybe some suggestions on taming the growing issue.

thanks

Does Mozilla / Firefox have a password manager for families - similar to bitlocker or Nordpass or others?

If so, where can I find it and how would I set it up?

When I am asked for a new password, it seems Firefox pops up with a suggestion. I have "Ask to save passwords" turned off. I want 1Password to generate my passwords and the pop-ups do not follow my 1Password specs. Therefore, I think Firefox is displaying the pop-ups. Is this a known bug?

Does the attached screen grab look like a Firefox pop-up? Tell me what to look for please. If you want the Troubleshooting Info I'll need some time to figure that out and send. Thanks in advance. ~fm

I use firefox password manager and have for years. I did not change my password in password manager but I can no longer edit or view my saved passwords. A box comes up asking me for my password but it keeps saying it is trying to allow me in to view my saved password but nothing happens. However, firefox still uses the saved passwords for all 37 of my saved sites and works to allow me to log into saved sites without hesitation. I tried changing my password to password manager and it tells me it changed the password but it will still not allow me to edit. When I click the edit button nothing happens. I have tried over and over and over. I often used my firefox password manager to go in and look up passwords to use on my ipad. I hope you can help. Thank you
