I-Firefox iOS Isithangami Sokwesekwa

I followed instructions in the article recommended for this topic, https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/manage-saved-passwords-firefox-ios, to verify that "Save Passwords" and "Show in Application Menu," whatever the latter means, are already checked.

Nevertheless, Firefox does NOT ask me whether to save the password for a new site login, nor do these passwords appear to be listed in Firefox.

What am I doing wrong? Running Firefox 106.0 under iOS 15.7.1 (from app store) on iPhone 13 Pro. Please help! -- jclarkw

All my passwords are gone. When I tried to log into a site, I get a Firefox message, saying to save and auto fill passwords, you must have a device pass code. I am not redirected anywhere, and have no idea where to find a device pass code. I’m devastated as all my passwords were saved here. How can I get them back?

Hi My firefox on 2 macbooks, Ipad and Iphone are all signed in and sync is on but the passwords etc don't sync. In fact, if I make any new account on one device, despite repeated syncing attempts, the passwords NEVER sync.

I was going to switch from Chrome to Firefox on my iphone, but FF is telling me I need to set up Touch ID/passcode to use the saved passwords feature. I don't want to do this and don't see a way around it. Is there any option to decline this? If not, I guess I'll be stuck with Chrome for now! Couldn't find an answer to this anywhere. Would love some help.

hi team

I am a multi decade, firefox in Mozilla supporter

About five years ago, had to transition to iPhone

The best solution was Lockwise for managing passwords, retaining cross platform support using firefox sync

In the last week or so Lockwise started automatically logging me out at least every day. This is extremely annoying and frustrating.

I would ditch lockwise, however it is the only solution to get Firefox sync passwords on iOS

Please advise - that seems like a bug in Lockwise that was recently introduced as a regression

It seems like Firefox password is not supported as a source in Firefox yet either on iPhone otherwise I would switch to that

I need this fix now. I'm loosing time and I haven't got any. I'm unable to make the 2nd verification work. I went to the app store and got a Authenticator. It works except when I try to use it for the second verification. When I went to turn it on on my phone, it wouldn't turn on. I think it's still trying to sync. This is a serious problem that I didn't ask for and didn't expect to have another trouble shooting problem that is ruining my business. I'm trying to work and it won't let me.

May I talk to a person? I would love to get help. I need to get help, but I'm stopped from signing up due to this problem. Talking to someone works best for me and is the fastest way to fix this. I have to get my shop up yesterday.

Please help. [removed phone# from public forum]

Hi,

I have Firefox on my desktop, laptop and iPhone. The only device on which I do not have access to my usernames and passwords to login into my online accounts is on my iPhone. And yes I have set it up correctly with the QR code etc... By reading all the messages from other users, I'd like to know if I need to ditch Firefox for good and go back to chrome. Or will someone fro Firefox come up with the fix for that glitch. Waiting for a couple days. After that, Firefox will be history for me. And oh yes, I will talk about this every chance I get while on TV.

When I try to login and it can detect my email so I don’t need to key in my email I just key in my password. after keying in my password it say missing parameter:client is but if I log out and re login again by re keying in my email information and password there won’t be this error message.Even with this error message I will still be logged in as I will receive a email to say I am sign in and when I go back to the home page and go back to the account page again I will be already logged in.I will still be logged in afterwards when I re enter the account page but this message will pop up if I just key in the password without my email as it can detect my account but if I just re enter my email and password I don’t face this message.This is not the first time I faced this

Firefox password manager will not offer to generate a password if i am creating a new account on my iphone. It works fine for autofilling existing passwords. I can only do that on my Windows PC. Can the iOS version generate secure paswords? I couldn't find anything to help in an internet search.

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1395581 <------------- Perfect example. Only responder is completely useless, asking pointless, obvious things, not understanding clear explanations, and not a single other person even attempting to help.

Your password system for iOS is completely screwed up. As others have noted, it never asks to save a password. Yes, the option is turned on. No, we aren't all in private mode. These questions are silly.

When I went to log in today - because I have to log in, and then verify it's me, every single time I open the browser, because ?????? - I also verified it ALWAYS says the first entry of your PW is wrong. I marked "view password" to ensure I entered it the right way. Entered it exactly the same way the second time. Worked the second time. This is how it goes literally every single time I log in. First time it says the PW is wrong, enter the exact same one a second time, works perfectly, and doesn't bother to ask me to save it, so I have to go through the entire obnoxious process every single solitary time I want to log into absolutely anything.

Then people ask about it, and are either told "-shrug- works fine for me lol," given meaningless responses with requests to log into people's personal websites, or they're completely ignored. The last person asking this question said they were going to just get another browser, and that's about where I'm at. This isn't an isolated incident, either. The number of questions on here that end with the user giving up and the question being archived without answer - sometimes without a single answer even *attempted* - is laughable. Firefox is more trouble than it's worth, and even getting a simple answer about passwords takes months of research and ultimately leads nowhere and nobody has any idea how to resolve the problem.

Oh my god. I wanted to export my bookmarks in preparation for going to another browser, since you clearly don't support this one, and come to find - YOU DON'T HAVE AN OPTION TO EXPORT BOOKMARKS FROM iOS FIREFOX. You may be the hands down worst browser I've ever seen in my entire life. Every single thing is a huge ordeal, usually takes months of research that ends in me giving up, and basic functions like exporting bookmarks you just deliberately don't offer?

Holy crap. I'm not only uninstalling this from my tablet but I'm getting rid of you on my desktops too. Your company is far too incompetent and careless to risk having on any of my devices.

When I try to sign into Firefox I don’t have the password. To get a new one, Mozilla wants to reset Firefox and trash my data. Is there a way to sign in without a reset?

Thanks.

I'm using Firefox on iOS along with the Bitwarden app for password management. I've noticed that Chrome and Safari display Bitwarden suggestions for password autofill directly in the toolbar, but Firefox does not. Is this due to my settings, or could it be an unfixed bug with Firefox on iOS? Has anyone else encountered this issue or knows if it's being addressed?

New iPhone 14 pro - Moved everything over from the old phone - Signed into Firefox and synced - All bookmarks are present - The option to use saved login information from FF is present - The websites where I have saved logins are all present and listed in the same order as my desktop (desktop version works fine btw)

The problem is that the usernames and passwords are not present for any of the websites. They are just blank when I try to use it directly from a login screen. (pic#1) I can select the website from the list and FF recognizes and recommends the correct website’s “info”, but when I tap it it just autofills blanks.

If I access passwords from the menu options while I am not trying to login to a specific website, I can see the same correct list of websites with saved info, but it says “no username” for all of them and the passwords are blank. (pic#2&3)

I have been having trouble with getting FF to work correctly with LastPass. I have reinstalled it multiple times and tried clearing cache after installation so I have a very clean FF. The last time I had this issue, LastPass support had me clear the cache without a new download and that worked for a short time. Is there a file etc. that needs to be cleared to now work with LastPass? I am using chrome with no issues with LastPass. I do not use Safari very often but LastPass works with it on my imac.

So I did this Firefox thing this morning and now when I click "logins and passwords" this Firefox Lockwise pops up ... with NO passwords??? Please revert me back to my old Firefox! I NEED my passwords

I used Firefox for iOS all the time on my previous iPhone. When I got a new one and downloaded it, I came across this issue. I am logged in to Firefox and all the sites I have passwords for are saved. It also asks me if I wish to save passwords. Neither of these function properly. All the passwords and usernames come up blank.

I will call this syncing actually it is not. I have lockwise on my iphone. I AM SIGNED INTO my mozilla firefox account on my laptop. I discovered my lockwise passwords were no longer on my ios device. Trying to sign into my firefox lockwise account and it tells me password invalid, laptop signed in? What i need is to get my firefox passwords back to my lockwise firefox account to import them to another password manager. can you help please.

Hello, Setting up a new iPad and signing into Mozilla fire fox, I found myself though I see on my phone I have more than one Mozilla account. On the iPad there are several with no username and no password. This is the case for Amazon? as well. For example, Amazon, UK Amazon, Germany, Amazon it’s only Amazon? france, Amazon?, USA, etc.. each time I have to write in my email and look up my password on another device, and then ask the iPad to remember the password and the password is NEVER remembered. Sorry, I don’t know why all caps. I am hoping a synch will clear things up, but do I sing from my phone or do I sync from an old computer? If I do have several Mozilla accounts, probably because I encountered password trouble and created a new ID, there could be a great amount of Helter skelter. If I sync more than one of these to the new device, will they all remain on the device or will they be faithful to the account that I am signed in on?

How do I tell which account I am using in Mozilla fire fox

Is there a trick to get Mozilla firefox to merge with the one on my phone for example, where things seem to be pretty straightforward.

I apologize because I’m not asking a clear question. Has anybody run into a problem of having their fire fox password system absolutely non-functional, and in addition to that on an Apple device, that the iCloud Keychain doesn’t want to remember the password, either, nor do the websites want to “remember me”.

If I know more, I’ll come back for help. Thank you, thank you all very much.
