Firefox no longer autofills my email and password

When I visit websites for which I have usernames and passwords saved in firefox, which firefox used to autofill and which other browsers still autofill, FF no longer fills them. I am not using Private Browsing and signon.autofillForms is set to true.

https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/autofill-forms/
That version was updated in September 2014, and you might need the newer version now. To get the update, you can have Firefox check for extension updates as follows:
Open the Add-ons page using either:
Ctrl+Shift+a
"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then, above the list, look for the button with the "gear" or "cog" icon, click that, and "Check for Updates."
Or if you only want to update this one extension, I think installing from the Add-ons site will overwrite the old version with the new one (not 100% sure about that).
Hope this help

  • Why doesent Firefox does not remember Emails and passwords? Seems this issue started when 4.0 came out.....

    Well ever since FF 4.0 came out it doesn't seem to want to remember all my emails and passwords, once in a great while it will scroll down and show my email but once i click it it doesn't even place my password in, Such as accessing my email or logging into an account on the web such as Facebook, MySpace or anything like that, and i have to re-log in every single time when i used to do click, click Done, Id like to continue doing that...

    To ensure that no malicious software has been installed, try running several malware scanners. It is best to run several as each will pick up things that the others miss. Some scanners you can try are:
    * Malwarebytes - http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php
    * SuperAntiSpyware - http://www.superantispyware.com
    * Ad-Aware - http://www.lavasoft.com/products/ad_aware_free.php

  • I created an Apple ID for iTunes using a work email address and left that company before I had an opportunity to change the email and password for that account.  How do I change the email address to a new one that I can access?

    I created an Apple ID for iTunes using a work email address and left that company before I had an opportunity to change the email and password for that same account.  Now I can't seem to login to that account and I can't choose the option for forgot password because it will send email to the old workplace.  How do I change the email address to a new one that I can access?

    If you remeber the password to that Apple ID then follow these steps
    1 - Make sure you have an email address that is NOT an Apple ID
    2 - Go to AppleID.Apple.com
    3 - Where it reads Manage Apple ID - Sign in
    Once you are signed in want to make sure the email address you are wanting to use is NOT set up as a "Recovery/Rescue" email for this account.
    [To check this - Main page where you see Primary ID - below do you see the email address you want to use listed towards the bottom? Yes - Delete / No - Good ./. If made any adjustments "Save" Next on the left select "Password & Security" - Answer your security questions you set up "if you have any" then scroll towards the bottom and check to see if you see the email address you want to use. Yes - Delete / No - Good] <-> Also you can change your password on this page as well. Any adjustments made "Save"
    Once this is done go back to the main page where you should read "Primary ID" and change the email address that is showing to the new email address youo want. "Save" Done
    I learned this not to long ago and worked for me. Hope this helps you!

  • I've changed my email and password for the apple id on my laptop, but the iphone still has old email address as apple id so i can't get on to itunes on the phoneto but anything - help!

    I've changed my apple id email and password on the laptop and now when i go to my son's iphone which uses the same account for itunes it's still showing the old email address and won't accept either the new or the old password - help! he wanted to buy a film for a long car journey tomorrow and we're stuck! Any advice gratefully received - how do i get that iphone to recognise the new apple id? Thanks

    Its very simpul bro, all u have to do is to Go in Settings of iphone, go to store. U will find ur apple id their. Make it forget, re enter ur id and new Password. And u are all done, enjoy using App store

  • HT5625 Here's my story: I "signed out" of my account on my IPAD. Then I DID NOT hit "create a new ID" - I simply filled in the top information with new email and password (the ipads new owner) - this got all set up but now when it wants to update anything

    I gave my second IPAD to a friend.
    I also recently changed the email associated with my own account
    because I will be moving and will be unable to use that address much longer...
    now I am not yet sure I can update my own apps (will it ask for old email and password?)
    on the given IPAD - with the new Apple ID and password it is asking for
    my present but soon to be disabled email with password - but it does not
    recognize the password (i dont think it will recognize it when i upgrade as well!)
    QUESTION
    How do I straighten this mess out to be able to update all future apps on two
    iphones and two ipads each having one different their separate Apple IDs?
    and how can I get it to recognize the password that was at one time associated
    with that email address
    WSD

    Apps are forever tied to the Apple ID under which they were purchased. If your friend wants to be able to manage apps on their device using their own Apple ID, they will need to delete all the apps purchased using your Apple ID and buy their own.
    Hopefully, you just updated your own Apple ID with the new email and didn't make the mistake of creating a new Apple ID. If you created a new ID, stop using it now, don't buy anything using it and go back and update the ID under which you purchased your apps.

    Hello codyfromseminole,
    After reviewing your post, I believe your device is under Activaltion Lock. The following article will provide you with more information about the feature:
    iCloud: Activation Lock
    With iOS 7 or later, Find My iPhone includes a feature called Activation Lock, which is turned on automatically when you set up Find My iPhone. Activation Lock makes it harder for anyone to use or sell your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch if it’s ever lost or stolen. 
    With Activation Lock, your Apple ID and password are required before anyone can:
    Turn off Find My iPhone on your device
    Sign out of iCloud on your device
    Erase and reactivate your device
    Important:    Make sure to remember your Apple ID and password, and that your password is unique and secure—someone else shouldn’t be able to guess it. For more information, see the Apple Support article Security and your Apple ID. 
    If you want to give away or sell your device, be sure to erase your content and settings (in Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings). When you erase your content, Find My iPhone and Activation Lock are also turned off. 
    If you no longer have the device, follow the instructions to remove a device you no longer have. For more information, see the Apple Support article What to do before selling or giving away your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. 
    For more information about Activation Lock, see the Apple Support article Find My iPhone Activation Lock in iOS 7.

  • HT5824 I have an old iPhone4 that I want to clear...trying to find the email and password attached to it.the phone has been sent to a person in Washington state...how do I unlock and clear it from here?

    I have given an old iphone4 to a friend in need.  It is in her possession.  I am trying to unlock...when I go to find my it under my devices it is not included to unlock it.  In the meantime she cannot clear it without my clearing it...she went into an apple store and was told I have to clear it, I talked to verizon...they said she may have to mail it back to me...as I cannot seem to connect it with the right email.and password.  What can I do?

    The "If you no longer have your iOS device" section of What to do before selling or giving away your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch may help.

  • Firefox won't store my usernames and passwords

    '''bold text'''hi there,
    firefox won't remember my usernames and passwords...
    need help.

    Do you mean names and passwords in the Password Manager or do you mean that you are no longer logged on to (remembered by) websites after closing and restarting Firefox?<br />
    If the latter happens then you have a problem with cookies that are not kept or the file that stores the cookies is corrupted.<br />
    Such details are stored in a cookie.<br />
    * Websites remembering you and automatically log you in is stored in a cookie.
    * You must allow that cookie (Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: Exceptions), especially for secure websites and if you let cookies expire when Firefox closes
    * Make sure that you do not use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the "Cookies" and the "Site Preferences"

    Hi there,
    You're running an old version of Safari. Before troubleshooting, try updating it to the latest version: 6.0. You can do this by clicking the Apple logo in the top left, then clicking Software update.
    You can also update to the latest version of OS X, 10.8 Mountain Lion, from the Mac App Store for $19.99, which will automatically install Safari 6 as well, but this isn't essential, only reccomended.
    Thanks, let me know if the update helps,
    Nathan

  • I have a new email and password for Icloud and cant sign in Ivloud accounts. It say connection error on my laptop. Had it before on my laptop.

    aI have a new email and password for my Icloud account and have a HP Pavillon laptop. Cnt sign into Icloud/ It says connection error! I had Icloud on my HP Pavillon before.

    I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
    The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account.  I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there.  On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back.  Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email.  The device is currently useless.
    The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
    Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option?

    I have an IPad mini and I changed the Apple ID and the password almost one year ago and, for a while, a message asking me to sign in to ICloud pops- up constantly. My ICloud account is registered with an old email address and password. I do not remember the password to my ICloud account, and ID address that my ICloud account is registered under is an old email adress which is deleted right now (the old mail account is deleted). I don’t have a rescue email adress and I don’t know the answers to the security questions, so I have no way of changing the ICloud password. A message asking me to sign in to ICloud pops up constantly, but I always just hit cancel. However, now I am unable to access Find My IPad. How do I get my ICloud account changed and registered to be under my current Apple ID (email) and password? It is possible to set the device as New Ipad?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact Apple ID Support, upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
    The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
    The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
    Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
    Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
    Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

  • Can't figure out how to change my email and password for the message board...

    I did password recovery earlier and ended up with some short (insecure) temporary password. I've wasted WAY too much time looking for a place to update my username and password, but I just can't find it.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    While there is no way to change your username, you can go here to edit your email and password.
