Hello,

I recently reinstalled Windows on my computer and expected Firefox to sync and restore my saved passwords, as I had enabled Firefox Sync before reinstalling. However, after syncing my account, my passwords did not appear, and I am unable to access them.

I have already tried the following steps:

   Checked the sync status of my Firefox account.
   Ensured that I am signed into the correct Firefox account on my browser.
   Searched for any relevant troubleshooting steps but haven't been able to resolve the issue.

Could you please assist me in restoring my saved passwords or provide any guidance on how I can retrieve them?

Thank you for your help.

Best regards, Tameem

Hi.. can you help me.

My Whatsapp QR Code cannot appear after the Firefox update. The QR code is Blank.. i have tried many ways to get the QR Code to appear but fail. Please help. TTQ

I want to stop Firefox from asking to save passwords. In settings/passwords the checkbox is checked but greyed out, so I cannot uncheck it. Why is it greyed out and how can I stop Firefox from asking to save every password?

When I go to the website https://www.rebateinternational.com/RebateInternational/contactUs.do and I try to fill out the webform on that page and use autofill to fill in the e-mail address, it gives me an error message that says "please enter a valid email address" even though the e-mail address is valid. Also, if I do not use autofill, but simply type everything in manually, it still gives me that same error message. This problem does not occur in Google Chrome, but it does occur in Firefox. Sometimes I can solve the problem by erasing part of the email address and then re-typing that part, but that doesn't always work. It also doesn't work if I erase the entire e-mail address and type it in manually. The problem does not appear to be caused by add-ons and does not appear to be caused by hardware acceleration, because I have disabled add-ons and have turned off hardware acceleration. It also does not appear to be caused by cache and cookies, because the same problem occurs after I clear the cache and cookies. I will appreciate any response you can provide to help solve this problem.

Greetings...

In regards to the Firefox Password Generator, I have two questions:

Q #1: Currently, the Firefox Password Generator appears to create random passwords that are 15 characters in length. Is there some way that I can increase the length of the randomly created passwords to a longer length, say 18 characters? Might this setting be contained at some location within "about:config" that I could edit?

Q #2: Currently, it appears that the only way to create a password for a new website in the Firefox Password Generator is when attempting to set the password while on a website. I would like to be able to create a password for a website from within the Firefox Password Generator itself. Is there some way that I could accomplish this task?

Thank you for your attention and assistance! Take care...

I can't log in to certain sites even though they've been on my favourites list for years, i.e. bank account and grocery shopping. I can log in to them using Edge , so what's gone wrong with Firefox. Is the latest updates to blame ???

I use FF on desktop. Recently, I've run into a problem. My desktop browser will not load any pages... except Youtube. Youtube loads just fine, I can open a video or browse channels or community pages normally. I have fully reset my browser, reinstalled it, and disabled extensions. Other browsers on my PC will work normally. I have very few extensions: Sponsorblock for Youtube, uBlock Origin, and Facebook Container, that's it. I am not using a proxy or VPN. Troubleshoot mode did not fix the issue. I'm not the most tech savvy, so I apologize if I missed anything here.

Any insight is appreciated. Thanks!

I use Firefox as my browser (have since it was first release many many years and computers ago). I'm not if this is an issue with other browsers.

I can print most pages on Amazon, but some special pages I can't print. Example, I initiated a Return and when it got to the confirmation page I can not print it to have a hard copy on hand. It will show two blank pages in print preview except for text header and footer (which are checked in options), but nothing else. It will not print anything except blank pages with the headers and footers. Cleared print settings in about:support, tried printing with system dialog, tried printing it to a PDF and even tried a couple FF addons with no luck.

Certain pages on Amazon seem to inject something to prevent printing. I remember running across something similar a while back on another site and gave up. I eventually just screenshot the Amazon return confirmation page and gave up.

How do I get around this and make the page print? Is there some way to force Firefox to print what it's showing me on the page? Is my only option to screenshot it and then print the image?

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.

I understand how to work with my list of passwords in Firefox. And I understand that a user name seems to be associated with the specific website that it was used on. Recently I brought up intuit.com and expected there to be only 1 username, but I saw a user name (Yahoo email address) that belongs to a guy that does some work for me. I remember him using my laptop to login to yahoo once to get something from his email. But he didn't use intuit.com. Not sure he even knows what intuit would be.

So I went to the password list in firefox and typed in intuit, his user name didn't appear. I tried typing in his email address but it didn't find it. I'm not worried about any security issues. But I want the name removed from the list of users that pops up.

I deleted the cookies for intuit but the user names still pop up.

Any suggestions on how to get rid of this user name?
