Firefox no longer places my password in the site. Do I need to reset something?

When I need to set a password for a site I've never visited before, Firefox asks if it should retain it for me. When I try to log on to a site I've been using for ages, it doesn't fill in the password for me. Has there been a change in version 18 or is it possibly something in the site I'm visiting? Most of these sites retain an automatic sign-in feature but they never retain the password so my user name shows up in the proper field, just not the password to get in.

  • Firefox keeps prompting me for password with the popup

    Firefox at my work computer keeps prompting for password with the popup message "The proxy moz-proxy://proxy:9119 is requesting a username and password. The site says: "moz-proxy://proxy:9119"" This happens too often,even If i provide the username and password I get the next popup with same message.
    Its very annoying, I am not finding web better because of this, I goggled and figured about the config settings of - network.automatic-ntlm-auth.allow-proxies and the other one not working.
    I guess I am missing the PAC URL or something which I remember like solved the problem sometime back but not in same domain though.
    Can someone help ?
    Can the good community help ?

  • How do i change proxy settings so it doesnt keep asking me "authentication req. The proxy web2.ucsd.edu is requesting a username and password. The site says: ucsd Squid Proxy-cache"?

    I changed my proxy setting to access a restricted school website. I don't know how to change it back to normal settings! Every time i'm browsing internet, Authentication Required windows pop up like 4-7 times a day! randomly! it says "the proxy web2.ucsd.edu:3128 is requesting a username and password. The site says: UCSD Squid proxy-cache". and makes me put in username and password every time. sooo annoying. how do i make the setting go back to default??

    1. Open firefox
    2. Go to "Tools" tab
    3. Go to "Options"
    4. Click on "Advanced"
    5. Open "Network" tab
    6. Click on "Settings"
    7. Select "No Proxy"
    8. Click "OK"

  • In some pages I keep receiving this message: "The proxy moz-proxy://172.20.5.250:8080 is requesting a username and password. The site says: "moz-proxy://172.20.5.250:8080"".

    In my company, I used FF for sometime now.
    I had some problem in the beginning, but using the proxy IP and Domain\Username + Password I was able to navigate.
    Ever since I tried FF4.x and FF5.x... I started to receive the following message:
    The proxy moz-proxy://172.20.5.250:8080 is requesting a username and password. The site says: "moz-proxy://172.20.5.250:8080"
    Even after inserting the Domain\Username and the Password I keep receiving the same error. In FF3.xx I was able to use the proxy.
    Don't know what to do any more there are several pages that have this problem.
    http://pplware.sapo.pt/

    Some... don't have any problem:
    http://batracer.com
    http://www.youtube.com
    Even when I try to see the extensions I get this error. This is so weird!!!
    For now... I have switched to Chrome, every new version of FF that is released I try it to see if the problem is gone. But, with no luck until now! :(

    I did have this problem with proxy moz-proxy prompt for username and password. In my case it was for websites hosted not on the internet but on the local corporate intranet. I solved my problem by doing the following action:
    Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> Network -> Settings: add the local website to the "No Proxy For:" field.
    I hope this will help some of you out there that have manually configured their proxy settings. Also a tip if you need to turn on and off proxy settings I recommend using "Quick Proxy" add-on.

  • My 3G unlocked iPhone is not syncing mail or contacts from my mac book pro, using Lion. I am able to get a calendars and music, only. I get the message that I need to reset the password which I have done 3x's on the phone and on the Apple server.

    My 3G unlocked iPhone is not syncing mail or contacts from my mac book pro, using Lion. I am able to get a calendars and music, only. I get the message that I need to reset the password which I have done 3x's on the phone and on the Apple server.

    Good to know that, but what can I do to get the mail and contacts downloaded from Icloud onto my Iphone?  I am told that the password needs to be reset and I have erased and reset it 3x's already? Should I Restore All Settings or Restore Network Settings or will that result in a situation where I have to have it re-unlocked again? GRACIAS!

  • Firefox does not stop loading even after the site is loaded and continues as if it is still loading. I have clocked it to 15 minutes, why?

    Sorry, I should distinguish between slow loading and manual reloading.
    I understood your problem to be that Firefox never finished loading the page, i.e., some part of the page was loading too slowly.
    By reloading, I meant Ctrl+r (or the reload button), to manually reload the page. You can disregard any cached files and reload all content fresh from the server by adding the Shift key, i.e., Ctrl+Shift+r (helpful when specific sites do not load correctly).
    If the page is automatically reloading itself over and over, that sounds like a completely different problem.

  • I changed my passwords on the sites I frequent on my macbook pro but was told I would have to change passwords on my iPad and iPhone as well. Is this true.

    I changed my passwords on the sites I frequent  on my macbook pro. Since doing that I have been informed that I would have to do the same thing with my ipad and iphone too. Is this true? Not sure I understand why. Do I just change it to the same password on each?

    Any password for an internet site is managed by this site's system. Your device only provides an access to this site.
    So if you change password from any device, you'll have to provide your new password for this site, whatever device you use for connection.

  • My apple id for icloud is linked to an invalid email address and i do not have the password for the account.  I need to delete the account to access my icloud on my iphone.  any ideas?

    my apple id for icloud is linked to an invalid email address and i do not have the password for the account.  I need to delete the account to access my icloud on my iphone.  any ideas on how to override this issue?

    If you updated the old ID at one point to create your current iCloud ID, temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

    Well, it appears that your backup is corrupt, thus causing your issue. So, you'll have to restore as a new device, & not from backup. Follow this by syncing your content back to your phone:
