Firefox "remembered password" fills in the wrong field

my email account (Gmail) is "@u.northwestern.edu". The log in screen has 2 sets of fields. For current students, it is a NetID & Net Password, for alums it is an Account Name & Account Password. I asked Firefox to remember my password, but every time I open the page it fills in the NetID & Net Password (first 2 fields), not the AN & APW (second 2 fields). I have to cut and past every time!

Maybe:

  • I can't get firefox to remember my passwords and open the site automacially, It did it at first when I installed firefox but now it won't and I have remember passwords checked in the tool

    I just reinstalled firefox on my computer and the password feature to remember then worked for all my sites for a couple days and now firefox does not remember my username or password and I have remember password checked in the tool section. What can I do to correct this. Does it have anything to do with me having the setting to not remember any history?

    Did you look at this? Should be helpful :)

  • Firefox will not remember passwords even tho the box is checked and there are no exceptions listed. The little bar asking to save passwords doesn't even come up.

    After an online session, Firefox (6.0.1) crashed and a crash report was sent. After that, Firefox would not start and the crash window kept coming up. I uninstalled it and did a new install. It works fine now except it will not remember passwords even tho the box to save is checked and there are no exceptions listed. The bar asking to save does not come up.

    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"
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Issue with fill in the blank field and back button.

    I am working in CP4 AS2.  I have create a page of fill in the blank fields to simulate filling in a form.  On the next slide, I show the answers by extracting the variables into text boxes.  I have a back and a next button and instruct the user to review their answers and if incorrect, to select the back button in order to reenter the data.  I have the back button set to jump to the previous slide by number (i've tried previous, last slide, etc...)
    The flash movie freezes when I select the back button.  I think flash is having trouble going back to the fill in the blank fields from the displayed variables.  Any ideas? or work arounds for this.  The idea solution would take them back to the page with the data already in the fields so they could correct the errors only and then return to the review page.
    Thanks

    Hi there
    Is scoring enabled on these? If so, perhaps your quiz settings are preventing backward movement.

  • Filling up a pdf form which I received as email. I opened it on my adobe reader 11 and filled up the highlighted fields. Yet when I click on the send via mail it says changes will not be included. How do I send the form with changes?

    Filling up a pdf form which I received as email. I opened it on my adobe reader 11 and filled up the highlighted fields. Yet when I click on the send via mail it says changes will not be included. How do I send the form with changes?
    The add annotations field shows as not allowed in the security options. So how do I send this form back with the changes??

    I think you you need to click 'save' first, then it is saved to acrobat, where it will prompt to send.

  • How to edit the dropdown emails list created as you start to fill in the To: field?

    When compose a new message, via iCloud (safari browser and win 7 os), and start to fill in the To: field, a dropdown list of Email addresses appears.  Some are old email addresses that have been deleted from the iCloud Contacts.  How do I clean this up?  Thx

    Hey Bubu,
    Thanks for the quick reply,
    open xml SDK ... I don't know what that is but I don't think it has to be so complicated:
    IF it is a Document type and NOT a Document Type Set, then I can specify the template to use and even edit it afterwards.
    The problem with the Document Type Set is that it won't allow me to make changes to the files I specified when creating the set. I wonder where they are kept and how these docs can be edited.
    I don't think i need new software,
    And I don't think i need to start writting code to achieve this simplest of tasks.
    Can you elaborate a bit what xml SDK is and why I need it? what is Del Content of a document?
    Kind regards

  • At least one required field was empty on export. Please fill in the required fields (highlighted)

    "At least one required field was empty on export. Please fill in the required fields (highlighted)"
    I'm tearing my hair out with this one. Have checked all the fields to confirm if I had set the Type as User Entered - Required. Can't find any such field. Any help would be appreciated. Is there an email id where I can send the form?

    Hi,
    In your script when you make an object visible, you also make it mandatory. No problem there!
    However the script that hides the object goes through this sequence:
    hide the object, THEN
    make it optional/not mandatory.
    This is where the problem lies.
    You FIRST need to make the object optional/not mandatory AND THEN hide the object. It should just be a simple case of work through the various scripts and having the mandatory line before the presence line.
    There is an example here: http://assure.ly/hxHupW.
    Hope that helps,
    Niall

    I would like to fill up the following pages. If I fill up the first fields with some letters, they multiplay each other in several other fields, there I don't want them. Can you help me?

    You can't change that, and we can't either. It's an error in the creation of the form. ALL of the fields that "auto populate" have the same name and description, so when you fill one, the rest fill by default with the same info. You'll need to contact the author of the form and inform them of the error.

  • Firefox will not prompt to remember password even though the box is checked to remeber them; also I am not in the private browing mode.

    I go to Tools > Options > Security and check "remember passwords" but after visiting another site and enter a password there is no prompt to remember then when I go back to Tool > Options > Security, the box is unchecked. Any suggestions.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    *Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

  • Can Firefox be set to remember password with out the remember box poping up

    I would like Firefox to remember passwords automatically,is there any way to do this

    No, you can't save passwords automatically without a confirmation.<br />
    That would be a security risk if you are on a computer that is not your own and it would to to easy to steel passwords.<br />
    You will have to get use to and accept that you have to confirm a new password.

  • How can I make firefox remember passwords on ALL sites?

    Firefox has a feature to remember my passwords, which is very useful. However, some sites mess with this so they won't save my passwords. In some cases these sites turn "autocomplete" off for the password field in their html; in other cases they appear to use some kind of javascript magic to stop me from saving my passwords.
    First of all, why should websites try to stop me from saving my password? Do they really think its more secure if people have to write their passwords on stickynotes on their monitor to remember them--or worse, use the same password on all sites? I what way is it conceivably more secure? In any case it's MY business how I manage my passwords--not theirs!
    I have had some success in battling evil sites that try to stop my from saving my passwords by editing the nsLoginManager.js file. But this is not convenient as I must keep doing this every time firefox gets upgraded, and it doesn't work for some sites like American Express which I think use some sort of javascript to stop me from doing what I want.
    So my question is, how can I effectively make firefox remember ALL the passwords I want, when _I_ want to--and NOT obey evil websites that just want to practice CYA while actually making me LESS secure?

    You can use the Remember Password bookmarklet: <br />
    https://www.squarefree.com/bookmarklets/forms.html#remember_password <br /> ''Has worked for me when I have needed it to save a password on a web site that used autocomplete=off.'' As far as the Bug that '''cor-el''' linked, I can't remember ever running across a website that did it like that.
    Or, you can use the Saved Password Editor extension, which includes a means of manually adding Username/Passwords to Firefox. <br />

  • Everytime I close Firefox, "Remember passwords option gets unchecked"

    I recently noticed that Firefox is NOT remembering my passwords. When I go to Options->Security-> and check "Remember Passwords," the options stays checked ONLY FOR THAT SESSION. When I close Firefox, and then reopen it, the check box is always "unchecked."

    If that line is missing then that means that the pref has the default "true" value and in that case the box should be checked on the next start.
    You did try Save mode to see if an extension is changing that setting?

  • Firefox' remember password prompt appears as expected but doesn't allow to click on its first option.

    Since I installed Firefox 20, everytime I visit a new site where I enter a login and password, it prompts me to remember the password as it always used to do. However, the only choice I have is to click on 'no' or 'later' from the pop-up menu. The first option 'remember password' doesn't work. It looks normal (i.e. not greyed out or anything), it is clickable, bun when clicked on it, nothing happens. The prompt dialogue stays open and the password wasn't remembered.
    I already tried in safe mode, it's the same story.
    Could someone please help me with this? I don't feel like having to remember all new passwords by heart...
    Thanks.

    I also have this issue on my Dell XPS 15 laptop with the Nvidia Geforce 540M and the temporary fix is turning off hardware acceleration. I do believe that this should only be a temporary fix and that the Mozilla developers should figure out a way to work around this or fix this hardware acceleration issue with the nvidia geforce 540m.

  • [SOLED] Firefox input type = file selects the wrong file

    When I have use a webpage in firefox that has an upload feature, Firefox often selects the wrong file. I can reproduce this problem by simply creating a form with an input tag like this:
    <input type="file" />
    When I enter the file selection screen and open fileA the input box contains fileA, fileB or fileC. It seems kind of random to me. I use KDE 4.5 btw, if that matters.

    It seems to be some kind of kde problem. When I delete ~/.kde4/share/config/* it works fine. I tried deleting the all files in share/config starting with a-m and it still didn't work. Then I deleted every file from n-z and it didn't work so it's probably a combination of files that give these problems. I don't feel like setting up KDE all over again so damn, it's back to Icewm, again...
