Firefox does not save my login names

I got the top bar saying "Do you want FF to remember your 'password' for this page (e.g. Facebook)"? and the 3 options: 'Remember', 'Never for this site' and 'Not now'. I pressed 'Remember' but nothing happens and the bar stays there. If I choose any other option, it disappears but the password is not saved. What can I do? This never happens before and it was working correctly. Thank you.

  • Firefox does not remembe the login name for the user login name on secure sites.

    My user got a new computer and I installed the latest version of firefox. It no longer remembers user names on secure sites and the employee does not like the fact that she has to type in her user name every time she needs to log into the site. The browser is set to automatically save user names and passwords.

    Please first update your plugins, Flash has a new version.
    Does this happen in Safe Mode?
    *[[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]]
    First troubleshooting steps are:
    *[[Control whether Firefox automatically fills in forms]]
    It is also possible to check the saved passwords to make sure that the information is saved. On an https site that does not autofill the information for logging in , the username is blank. I removed the entry by right cicking on the page, selecting "Page Info" and under "Security" viewing the saved passwords.

  • Firefox does not save my tabs and windows from last time when I start it although i have already set it so (on Macbook)

    Firefox does not save my tabs and windows from last time, although i have already set it so (on a Macbook) (newest version)

    If you use [[Clear Recent History]] in Firefox 3.5 and later to clear the 'Browsing History' when you close Firefox then restoring tabs from the last session ("Save & Quit" or "Show my windows and tabs from last time") doesn't work.

  • Firefox does not save my settings when I reboot

    I have Windows 7 Ultimate. I was having problems with Firefox 3.6.16 crashing to the point where it wouldn't work. I uninstalled it and downloaded version 4 but had problems with it hanging all the time. I went through the help section, one of the things I did that was recommended was to delete my sessionstore files and any extra copies. I think there were three of them. I deleted them all but Firefox 4 still was hanging.
    I uninstalled 4 and reinstalled 3.6.16 again. Everything seems to be working okay except when I reboot or restart my computer it does not save all of my password logins or any special settings on websites I visit all the time. So every time I start my computer I have to log into all my sites again, and I have a lot of them so this is really a pain. I'm not sure if this has to do with deleting the sessionstore files or not. I checked and I do have one sessionstore file instead of three.
    Not sure what else to try. If I leave my computer on I stay logged in to all my sites and my preferences on those sites are maintained. Anyone have any idea what's going on?

    I have tried to make a backup of the bookmarks file. Renamed the old one and called the backup "bookmarks.html".
    The places.sqlite file is not "secured" (there does not exist a "locked" attribute in the general tab on the Mac), so I assume it is not locked.
    Nothing seems to work. Possibly I can best uninstall Firefox and try to reinstall it, or does that not solve the problem.
    Otherwise I go back to Safari :-)

  • Firefox does not save my tabs or sessions when I shut down my computer

    To be more clear:
    Yes, I have set my options to "show windows and tabs from last time".
    No, I did not check "clear memory on shut down" or "start private session"
    Also, it saves my tabs when I restart the browser, but when I shut down my computer and start up again, Firefox does not show my tabs from last time. The same thing happens with sites I've logged onto before; it logs me out after I shut down my computer.

    Did you check the "Clear Recent History" settings to be sure cthat you do not clear the Browser history and the cookies?
    See [[Clear Recent History]]

  • Firefox does not save toolbar I made

    Since FF upgraded me to Firefox 23 My tool bars are messed
    Every time I make a new toolbar Via "Customize" > "Add New Toolbar" after I exit it does not save.
    Yes I read over 10 different articles on it.
    1) I deleted the localstore.rdf and started from scratch. After 15 minutes of dragging all the icons to various toolbars I close out of Customize. I then restart Only to find my toolbar not saves and icon missing (placed back into the Customize Box)
    2) Only solution ALWAYS given is going to Safe Mode and resetting everything.
    That requires me to spend 5 hours backing all the settings and data I have saved in the various 189 items loaded.
    Why so many? If not that many I would have to spend 6 hour more all day on my computer doing things that many of these addons do for me. Time is Money.
    3) This is not the first time over the 8 years or so of using Firefox this has occured.
    4) Question why doen't save when you close out of "Customize" than when you exit? Plus what in Firefox is messed up that it is not saving right?

    Nope, I tried it again and added buttons to the New Tool bar I made and everything disappeared once I restarted Firefox up again. So they have not solved it. From FF 23 now on FF26 and it has not been fixed

  • Firefox does not save history and bookmarks and I can't even clear history.

    Hi, I would like to ask some help regarding my firefox.
    At first, I have this Mozilla Firefox 3.6.8 where it all started.
    I can't remember really when, but I just noticed that I can't clear my history even though I checked all and selected "Everything". Already tried re-installing FF, still none.
    Then another one is that, it does not save history. All the history it saved were from the past. No new history can be added.
    Please help me..

  • How come firefox does not remember my user name and password for the verizon wireless website ? or verizon wireless ?

    how come when i log onto the verizon wireless web site to pay my bill, i have to sign my user name and password every time ? i am not getting the firefox pop up asking me if i want firefox to save my password for this site. so how do i get firefox to remember my log in information for my verizon wireless website ? thank you.

    This would be verizonwireless.com, correct? Their site requests that browsers should not save information for its login form.
    If you're comfortable with using bookmarklets, there's one here that should force Firefox to remember:

  • Firefox will not save my user name and password for one of my sites. How can I fix this problem. It is getting annoying having to reenter every time I check this site. Is there a solution.

    I had my user name and password saved for my library site. My grandson hit something and now the saved user name and password are gone. It asks me every time to enter it and it is getting annoying. How do I fix this. I want Firefox to remember these codes.

    You can create a bookmark with the JavaScript code via a right-click on the "Remember Password" link on the squarefree.com website and choose "Bookmark This Link" and select the "Bookmarks Toolbar" as the destination folder for easy access.
    * https://www.squarefree.com/bookmarklets/forms.html#remember_password
    You need to use the "Remember Password" bookmarklet before or after filling the name and password field on the website with the <u>login form</u>, but before submitting the login form by clicking a button on the web page.
    If the site is using autocomplete="off" then you see a number not equal to 0 (i.e. attributes were removed) in the pop-up alert from the bookmarklet and Firefox should offer to remember the name and password via a drop down dialog of the key icon that will appear on the location bar (Firefox 4+) or via an info bar at the top (Firefox 3).

  • When atemping to use wifi hotspots FireFox does not redirect to login page.

    when trying to use a hot spot like in a hotel or airport (tmoble for one) will not redirect to login page. Nor can it find the page when I enter the DNS name. If I enter the IP address of the long in page then it can find it but not the subsequent pages that it calls by DNS.
    == URL of affected sites ==
    http://

    I am a Hotspot ISP and I am having this issue with Firefox on Linux devices. We use Colubris MSC-3300 as access controllers tied to a RADIUS server. Have tested all other browsers on Windows and Linux and they seem to work correctly, problem seems to be tied to Firefox on Linux (testing with Ubuntu 11.04). When I open Firefox the redirect to captive portal page works correcty. I enter my username and password and when it tries to send this information back to the controller I get a "connection was interrupted" error. I have gone into Preferences and turned everything off and/or on and still can't get this device to log in.

  • Firefox does not save cookies in search

    When I am in search Firefox does save the sites I visit by changing color. When I visited a site in search the sites that I visited would change color. It is set to save history what else do I need to change.

    It used to change color when sites are visited but it does NOT do that now.

  • Firefox does not save my downloads to my specified folder. It tries to use another folder. How do I correcct this problem?

    When I try to save a download to my specified directory (C:\Downloads) it tells me that (C:\documents and settings\local\temp) can not be changed and for me to change the properties of that folder. I made no changes to any folder regarding downloads. What can I do to fix this problem?

    Thanks for your input. I haven't changed anything in my virus protection to make this happen. It has been saving my downloads now for a couple years without any problems.
    I am really confused as to how this started. If you have any further input, I would appreciate hearing from you.
    Thanks again.

  • Firefox does not save my my.yahoo homepage. It gets saved in IE but not in Firefox. It opens a generic yahoo page and when I start to key my ID it shows it and it has saved my password. This is in Win7, my Vista PC works fine.

    This seems to have started a few weeks ago when I was on ver 3, I changed to ver 8 with the same result. Vista IE, Vista IE and Win7 IE all work correctly.

    In the '''Privacy''' tab under '''History''' you have to change the '''Firefox will:''' option to '''Use custom settings for history'''. If the existing option is '''Remember history''' then changing the settings may not help. The reason for the problem might be different.

  • I get the firefox pop up "do you want to remember this password", but it does not save it. There is no "yes" option on the pop up. How can I get Firefox to save my passwords?

    I want Firefox to save my passwords as it has in the past, but now it is not doing so. I am using version 6.0.2, I see the pop up asking to remember the password, but firefox does not save the passwords. What can I do to correct this so FF starts saving my passwords?

    Firefox 4 and later versions place a key icon on the location bar that allows to (re)open the dialog to save the password at any time.<br />
    That pop-up dialog has a button labeled with "Remember Password".<br />
    If you click the arrow next to that button then you see the other choices ("Never Remember Password for this site", "Not Now").<br />
