Websites remembering you and automatically log you on is stored in a cookie.
* Create an allow cookie exception (Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: Exceptions) to keep such a cookie, especially for secure websites and if cookies expire when Firefox is closed.
Make sure that you do not run Firefox in Private Browsing mode.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Private+Browsing
Do not use Clear Recent History to clear the "Site Preferences" and the "Cookies" as this doesn't take exceptions into account, but removes all specified data, so you lose the cookie that makes the website remember you.

Clearing "Site Preferences" clears all exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, software installation, and passwords.

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 [[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).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

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")

Is there any way to not show the device password on start-up?

The device is set to automatically show its password on start up. Is there any way to hide the password so it does not show?

I agree with you on this one. If they would just have an option that when you touch none interactive section maybe just the home button appears.
I rarely use that navigation system and the people that I have tested ralley know what to do when it pops up. If the page number came up instead of a slider, I think people would get it. Plus instead of icons have text. Table of content, home, back.

Typing not showing up in password fields

<blockquote>Locking duplicate thread. 
Please continue here: [/questions/837290]</blockquote>
Hi folks,
I have a strange one - I can type in a password into a password field in FF3.6.17, but the field stays blank (or sometimes a space shows up). The passwords are being passed to the sites, but no placeholders aren't showing up.

Firefox v. 8.0.1 does not offer to remember passwords on sites even though I have checked the option to 'remember passwords for sites' - I am not in private browsing mode. how can i fix this?

google chrome DOES ask; mozilla firefox does not.
It has some memorized passwords, but all are left over from previous versions of firefox.

Keyboard will not show for typing passwords. i.e. to download/update an app.

Please help with the above. Thanks!!

Assuming that you were not using a Bluetooth keyboard with the iPad - or if you were, and you have turned the keyboard off and turned Bluetooth off on the iPad - try rebooting and see if the keyboard will appear.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

I tell firefox not to remember passwords for certain sites, and it forgets when I exit

I'm running 3.6.9 on Win7. I have chosen the setting of remembering passwords for websites. However, for certain sites I choose "never to remember passwords" and this used to work fine in earlier versions. Now, whenever I exit firefox these sites for which I do NOT want to remember passwords are forgotten about, and every time I visit them after a restart I have to instruct firefox that I don't want to remember passwords there, etc. It's getting awfully tedious. What changed? How do I ensure that my password "exceptions" are remembered between sessions?

Make sure that you do not use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the "Site Preferences"
Clearing "Site Preferences" in "Clear Recent History" will remove exceptions that are stored in content-prefs.sqlite (site specific settings for zoom) and permissions.sqlite (exceptions for images, cookies, pop-ups, software; Tools > Page Info > Permissions) in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder].
The password exceptions (Tools > Options > Security: Passwords: Show Passwords) are also removed from signons.sqlite.

Remembering passwords for HTTP 403 pages in Safari

Hi,
I've turned on autofill for names and passwords in settings; however, it only appears to save passwords that are entered in forms (i.e. the web designers used the form html element) - it does not appear to remember passwords when an HTTP 403 is given (i.e. Safari shows a native popup asking for a username and password). Is there any way to make Safari do this on the iPad?

I have the same issue on an iPad I purchased 2 days ago. I didn't realize it was an HTTP 403 issue. I'm disappointed no one has answered this, I'll start a new topic.

How to bring up the "remember password" AGAIN on a site?

I have not clicked the "remember password" then I click outside it that box and it is gone. I tried searching for answers and some say that I should click the "key" near the back button, but there's no "key" present in there. I just recently made that account and I forgot my password so I want it to show up and I can log-in to that site again.

hi Gryse, in the scenario you've described it is not possible to bring up the remember password dialog again, also firefox won't even have your credentials in memory anymore (your login status on the site is stored in a cookie that the website has set on your computer).
please contact the account settings on the website and see if they offer to change the password or send a reset link to a mail address used to register or else contact the support of the website.

Does Safari store passwords if the 'Remember password' box is unchecked?

For security reasons, I want to know if when I enter my hotmail password in Safari, and do NOT check the 'Remember password' box, whether Safari still stores this password in its Form Values file or elsewhere.
I've searched online for days and can't find an answer; hope someone here can shed light!
Thanks

Two ways to store a password.
Keychain or a cookie.
The "remember me" is a cookie and you can search and delete it if needed.
The Keychain is under the control of that user account and is password protected.
Both methods should protect your data as long as you have some type of "log on" when starting your computer. If your Mac has only one account and you've set it up to automatically log in then other (very smart) people could view the cookie file. But most of them scramble sensitive data and even a smart user would find it difficult to find.
Tiger's version of Safari also include a "Private Browsing" feature (under the Safari menu).

Is there any way to force Firefox to remember passwords?

As many have complained about, there is a growing trend for websites to prevent browsers, including Firefox, from remembering passwords. This is absolutely infuriating. Like most people, I have on the order of 100 passwords, and thanks to idiotic, overzealous IT guys who need to justify their own jobs, we are forced to constantly change them to ludicrous, impossible-to-remember combinations of symbols and numbers. (Does anybody really get their accounts stolen because some hacker sits down and tries to guess their password? Somehow I find that very, very hard to believe.)
First world problems, I know. My question though is simple: is there any way to force Firefox to remember passwords? Perhaps an add-on or external program of some kind? I know there are password manager programs, but the last time I checked, those were all but worthless and didn't work as well as the built-in Firefox support for remembering passwords. Thanks for any help.

hello andrew, yes you can either [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/remember-passwords/ install an addon] or [https://www.squarefree.com/bookmarklets/forms.html#remember_password use a bookmarklet] to circumvent this restriction.
in an upcoming version of firefox, this functionality will also be built-in directly into the browser: http://www.ghacks.net/2013/12/24/firefox-29-save-fill-autocompleteoff-passwords/

There is no "Remember Password" option when logging into iTunes

Everytime I open iTunes (Windows) I have to log in. This isnt a big deal, its more of an annoyance. I do not see the "Remember Password" option that used to be there, has this option been removed?
Ive tried several solutions posted on the forums but none of them work, (ie. clear cache, reset settings, reinstall..yada yada yada)
See screen shot...

Any ideas?
I do not have this issue on my other PC, I have also Authorized this PC, so Im at a loss.

I'm on a PC. Maybe that makes a difference. And I went directly to apple.com; I did not launch the store from Itunes -- so perhaps that's the difference.
Whatever it is I am never presented with a command bar that looks anything like yours.
The following image is from when I am actually accessing my account data:
No log-in; no screenname; no log-out -- And yet I am in a secure domain.

Why the restart firefox bubble does not show after installing an addon and the remember password bubble is closed (not now x)?

When I go to a post login page, firefox offers to remember password.
If this bubble is ignored (by pressing the x or by choosing the Not now option) and i download an add-on on that page that requires browser restart, the bubble of "restart now" which should get triggered after the installation of the add-on is not shown.
Note: If i press on Remember password or never remember password on this site, the restart bubble shows.

Possibly you could explain carefully what happens, listing the steps you take.
As a test/example Would you be able for instance to recreate the problem with this forum as a login site with a password. And with for example this add-on

Firefox's option bar for saving username and passwords will not show, I have it set to remember passwords for sites. Can sites be added manually?

I was using Norton to remember my user names and passwords, however I do not use Norton any longer. Firefox does not give me the option of saving passwords even though I have it set to remember them.
There are no sites in the exceptions list. How can I reset Firefox so the option bar shows?

* Make sure that you not run Firefox in (permanent) [[Private Browsing]] mode
* In Private Browsing mode some menu items are disabled (grayed) and features like visited links are disabled and not showing
* You are in Private Browsing mode if you see "Tools > Stop Private Browsing", possibly grayed
* You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
* To see all History settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting Firefox will: Use custom settings for history
* Uncheck: [ ] "Automatically start Firefox in a private browsing session"

Firefox 8.0 remembering username even though I've set it to not remember passwords. What do I do?

I downloaded the new version of Firefox. I had the old version set to not remember passwords. The old version also deleted the username, which is what I wanted it to do. On the new version, I've set it to not remember passwords, but now usernames are showing up on my websites. How do I fix this?

*Click the (empty) input field on the web page to open the drop down list
*Highlight an entry in the drop down list
*Press the Delete key (on Mac: Shift+Delete) to remove it.
