Firefox had saved my login name and password for a site, when I changed the password, FF won't ask to save/update it so I have to enter it manually now. How do I get it to prompt me in FF7.01?
Using FF7.01 on a HP Pavilion dv6775us laptop running Vista Home (updated continuously)
The site owner changed the rules in order to improve password security so I was required to create a new password. When I did so I was not prompted by FF7.01 to save the new password.
When I next logged into the site, FF remembered the user name but presented the old (invalid) password. I was forced to manually enter the new password, but again was not prompted to save it to FF.
I then went into FF Security, viewed the saved passwords and deleted the entry for the site in question. I expected that when I logged into that site the next time I would be asked if I wanted to save the username and password. I wasn't.
I then exited from FF and relaunched it and again logged into the site in question. I was not prompted to save the username or password.
How do I force FF to ask for and then save the username and password?
Thank you for your reply.
My problem isn't removing my log-in name and password for a site.
The problem is I already had the log-in name and password saved by FF, but I was required by the site to change the password. FF did not recognize that it had changed and refuses to prompt me to save the new password.
After several attempts to force the prompt, I deleted the site from the Saved Password list, hoping that the next time I entered my log-in name and password on that site FF would ask if I wanted to save both. That did not happen even after exiting FF and relaunching it.
So, right now FF will not save my log-in name and password for a site that it used track for me. Given the complexity of the new password, I really do not want to manually enter it every time I use the site.
Regards.

Anyone know why, firefox does not remember password for a site when you remove password from the view password site? I removed a password for a site that was not remembering the correct password for the "view password" window and now it does not guess the password and does not remember the password for that site. All other sites are being remembered.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== After I deleted the password from the view password window.The saved password feature worked well, but the site I had saved the password for required that I change the password. I have found no way to update the password in Firefox. After I deleted the saved password, Firefox did not ask if I wanted the new password saved. When this happened before, I removed and re-installed Firefox, and then it worked. I hope there is another way to update a password.

You do. Your system is either Windows or Mac (or maybe a couple of other less popular choices) and a version of one or the other.
When you set up your machine, you were asked for an administrator user name and password. You need both of these to install software. -

So my stupid mum decided to change the password instead of waiting for me to get up -_- and now I have lost all my iMessages that were very important and I can't find them I recently tried to back all my iPod up to my laptop but I had a look and couldn't find anything to do with messages can someone help
You only way is to restore from backup if you have backed up after the Messages were on the iPod but before you "deleted" them. iTunes only retains the last backup.
See the restore topic of:

I changed the password to my email account and when I changed it in my phone all of my emails were deleted Is there any way to retrieve them? They are in the server and I can access them via Outlook just not on my iPhone or iPad.
They won't be in icloud, since the only thing that would contain pictures are backups. But they were deleted before you signed up for icloud, so forget that. The only other thing to check is you computer. Users are always advised to sync photos to computers for archiving. If you did that, you should be able to find them there. But without any backups or copies of them, then they are history.
And no, you can't look at pictures in icloud. -
When signing on to my gmail account the two dialog boxes, one for account name and the other for the password are already filled in. The password box has dots for the password but anyone who clicks on the sign in box can read my mail. How do I change this? It appears to be a Firefox related issue because it doesn't happen if I sign in on Safari or Internet Explorer. I would appreciate your help.
See [[Remembering passwords]], you can turn this feature off.
You also can [[Remembering passwords#Viewing and deleting passwords|view or delete the saved passwords]].
Please let us know whether that works for you. -
I have a new computer and am trying to transfer my bookmarks and my email addresses and settings. I can not get into firefox sync. First of all the info tells me to go to the firefox button at the top of the page and click on sync setup, well that is not very clear, because there's not firefox sync set up anywhere. I finally found it under "Tools." Now everytime I try to sign on, I'm told my password is incorrect. I've changed it three times, and each time I'm told that either the reset link was wrong, or my PW is wrong.
Does this program even work? If not is there a way to bring my info across without having to manually enter it. When I was using Netscape, I could just transfer the file containing the addresses and the bookmarks over. I could even transfer my email folders with the contents. Is that possible with Firefox and Thunderbird?Your personal data is saved in a "profile". <br />

The user name and password in question is for the website www,webkinz.com. One day there was a problem logging in so support changed my password. The problem occurs at webkinznewz where there is a frequent transfer of money and prizes from games to the main account. The newspaper has a differnt user name and password. Now when I try to transfer anything my newz name and password show up. Even when I change it manually it does not offer to save it
Make sure that you not run Firefox in (permanent) [[Private Browsing]] mode.
* You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
* To see all History and Cookie settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting <b>Firefox will: Use custom settings for history</b>
* Uncheck: [ ] "Permanent Private Browsing mode"

I don't remember the password to get into adobe, despite the hint, so I can't run anything that comes on Facebook. Any suggestions?
There is nothing on Facebook that you would need Adobe Reader for; perhaps you mean Flash Player?
Either way, the username and password required for both of the above is for your computer's Administrator account.
