How do I undelete my saved passwords?

I just by mistake deleted all my saved passwords. Anyway to restore them. Using FireFox 34.0.5. Please help

Those files are not on the about:config page, but in the Firefox profile folder.
You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
You can find preferences on the about:config page.
When you reset the signon.importedFromSqlite then this pref is removed and when Firefox doesn't find this pref when you start Firefox and there is no logins.json file as well then Firefox can build a new logins.json file by importing passwords from a possible signons.sqlite file.

How do I enter a saved password on the log-in page

I am at the log-in page but I don't know how to get Firefox to enter the password - the password has be saved and is in the list of saved passwords - I am flabbergasted that this isn't easily visible and doesn't show up anywhere on help

I use WEP at home and it requires a hexadecimal password (key).
- A 64-bit WEP key is usually entered as a string of 10 hexadecimal (base 16) characters (0-9 and A-F)
- A 128-bit WEP key is usually entered as a string of 26 hexadecimal characters. 26 digits of four bits each gives 104 bits; adding the 24-bit IV produces the complete 128-bit WEP key. Most devices also allow the user to enter it as 13 ASCII characters.
I use the 64 bit since I have a legacy device that only works with that.

How to find all your saved password data on iMac?

I once saw all my saved password information on my computer somewhere in system preferences or keychain access. How do I view them again. Please help, I forgot my password to my email account which is saved on computer but i need the actual password for when i log into another computer trying to check my email.

I went to Safari, Preferences clicked on Passwords (icon KEY) and found the list websites and passwords, hidden by asteriks, that are saved by the system. Highlight the website you want the password for and check box below Show passwords for selected websites. It will ask for your computer's main password. This worked like a charm.

How do I remove a "saved" password for a website on Firefox browser?

I always have to ignore the option to save passwords but now see that I must have clicked the wrong thing in error and it has saved a password I do not want saved for security and privacy reasons. How do I go about removing this "remembered password"...? Thank you. Wish I could turn the annoying feature off altogether as well.... Grrrr!!

Open the "Settings" windows (I have a German Version, and here it's under Extras (Probably "options" in English-->Settings).
Open the Tab "Security" and you'll find a button to have a list of all passwords you saved. Just mark the one you wish to delete and press the "delete" key

How do I delete a saved password?

I saved a password for a website and when I tried to change it I found I could not change the password.

Hi msbonbon1,
You do not mention what version of the Mac operating system you are using or what web browser you have, but to delete passwords from Safari use the process described in this article -
Safari 7 (Mavericks): Automatically fill in passwords, credit cards, and more
Specifically -
Choose Safari > Preferences, then click AutoFill.
Delete the stored user name and password for one or more websites.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

You can't, for obvious reasons (think of spying for another person's sensitive data). All you can do is deleting them.

How do I add a password to the saved password list?

I know how to get to the saved password list. As far as I can see there isn't any way to add site login details and password. You only have a remove and a remove all button. No add button.
Maybe you would consider this for the next upgrade.
Thank you,
Richard

The website may be using autocomplete=off to prevent Firefox from saving the name and password. 
You can remove autocomplete=off with a bookmarklet to make Firefox save the name and password.

How can i recover my bookmarks and saved passwords?

i have accidentally uninstalled Firefox software. how can i recover my bookmarks and saved passwords for the various sites. Please help on this regard. I'm in a serious trouble now.

If you have removed your personal data when uninstalling Firefox then the Firefox profile folder that store your Firefox personal data has been removed.
If you do not have a backup of the files in this folder then your only option is to try to recover this data with an undelete utility like Recuva.

How can I merge bookmarks and saved passwords from two computers onto one computer?

Before I got rid of my old computer, I backed up my profile folder on a thumb drive. Then, I got a new computer and started customizing firefox, adding bookmarks and new saved passwords, without ever uploading my passwords and bookmarks from my old computer 's profile. How can I add the bookmarks from my old computer's profile folder onto my new computer's new firefox profile?

That is about saving your current bookmarks to an HTML file because you would lose those when you restore a JSON backup from the backup.
*Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Export Bookmarks to HTML
*Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Import Bookmarks from HTML

How do I use "saved passwords" to access a site?

I have a list of saved passwords in firefox. So what steps do I use to access the site. If I click on the saved password entry nothing happens? I want to use firefox saved passwords software. I used to use Roboform where I had a list of logins and just clicked on the entry and the username/password was entered automatically. Can firefox do this, too? If so tell me how to do it? Where's the list of logins in firefox that I can click on and have the username & password filled in from the saved list? My windows XP/pro died so I had to transfer data to Win7. Some of my Roboform data was lost so I am starting over and want to use Firefox software for username/password to access sites similar to the way Roboform works? Tell me how?

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode.

*Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting Firefox will: Use custom settings for history
*Deselect: [ ] "Always use private browsing mode"
You can also check the signon.autofillForms pref on the about:config page.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] 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).

In Security, clicking on the "Saved Password" button displays your current saved password for each site. It does not allow you to change a password. How would you do that?

In Security, clicking on the "Saved Password" button displays your current saved password for each site. It only allows you to view and delete site passwords. It does not allow you to change a password. How would you do that?

If you enter a new password Firefox should offer to change the password.
*You may not need to delete the old password. Try "Refreshing" the page, entering the site again, you may need to let Firefox fill in the old password, then enter the new password, and Firefox should ask to save the new password. See:
**http://kb.mozillazine.org/Deleting_autocomplete_entries
*If you delete the old password, you may need to "Refresh" the site after deleting the old password.
If you want to delete the password that has been saved do the following:
#In the Tools menu select Options to open the options window
#Go to the Security panel
#Click the "Saved Passwords" button to open the passwords manager
#Select the site in the list, then click Remove
