Where FF saves/put cookies & sites-login info?

To understand why I'm making this ? you need to know the following:
# 1 I'm using a VAIO notebook that has no hdd, so I'm booting up from a Lucid Puppy 5.8 live cd;
# 2 have a 128MB CFCard with 2 versions of FF, a PET (not updated) & FF ver 3.6.13 that I recently downloaded & unzipped (because thought it was going to contain an updated ver od Flash - which is the one I'm using right now);
# 3 as you might already see, every time I start-up the system have to login to every site again & sometimes check for login-data for certain sites which I don't visit often.
I understand that if, before I shutdown the system, I save these data the next time I'll be taken faster to those sites without having to remember all the login data.
I'm interested in saving the cookies, a Master PWD & the individual pwds for the sites. Any other data that you know of & you point out that'll be needed for my purposes that I'm not aware of will be appreciated.
Thanks in advanced for any help on this!
PS. This OS runs from RAM (which is at 512MB).

Thanks for a very useful list of links! Yes, with your help I made the necessary changes & it worked well enough.
There's a small detail that I, inadvertently, left out of the discussion, though: '''my changes when I use the Preferences button within the Edit menu item'''.
I searched through all the folders contained within my last version of FF & found a file that I suspect contains part of the info I need to make it persistent: "browserconfig.properties", located within the Firefox root/main folder. The changes I made there consists in replacing '2' web addrss instead of the Mozilla ones that come as default. Haven't tested it yet.
The other point within my Preferences is the text size I usually use, but I didn't find an editable file or not that could suggests in its name this purpose. So, for now, all I'm waiting for is to see if my implemented changes work out well. After that all that I need is to locate an appropriate file to edit or copy after performing my preference changes...
PS. If you know that I made a mistake by changing those addrss. or know the file/location of my 2nd issue & share that with me/us it would be very much appreciated.

Make ff remember a secure website password? (I don't want to change security settings, I just want to save a specific site login info)

The site has https address. I don't want ff to remember secure sites logins, but in this case the security is really unnecessary and annoying. I just want to force ff to remember this website login.

hello, sites can define that the browser shouldn't save passwords in their source-code, see [[Usernames and passwords are not saved]].
you could use an addon like the following to circumvent such restrictions: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/remember-passwords

Wont save favorite passwords and login info on my toshiba computer

Firefox won't save my logins or passwords on the toshiba laptop and it's very frustrating. I have to put all the logins everytime and on other computers this does not happen. How can I change the settings?

Passwords are stored in the password files (encrypted).
Bookmarks are stored in the bookmarks file.
These can't get your data back, but will help in the future.
These add-ons can be a great help by backing up and restoring Firefox
'''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/febe/ FEBE (Firefox Environment Backup Extension)]''' {web link}
FEBE allows you to quickly and easily backup your
Firefox extensions, history, passwords, and more.
In fact, it goes beyond just backing up -- It will actually rebuild
your saved files individually into installable .xpi files.
It will also make backup of files that you choose.

Dreamweaver not saving sites login info

Dreamweaver 8 is not saving my site logins and passwords,
regardless of whether or not the "save" checkbox is enabled.
This is on XP 64bit, I did not have this problem on my
previous machine running the same version of Dreamweaver and
XP64.

Search this for for "It's posted a million times - uninstall
IE7 or update
to DW 8.0.2". I'm sure you'll find your answer in one of
them.... 8)

Hello, I used to have an add-on that would make my browser save my online banking login info..which browsers usually don't..so it forced Firefox to do it. I cannot remember the name though, can you help me?

The banking sites usually prevent log-info from being saved, but there was a way around it..
i want to save them on my computer just like any other passwords..
i forgot the name and address of that add-on

you can use Lastpass Password Manager, its Safe and Free :)

Where did DW put the site definitions?

Hi all. Just started with DW in CS 5.5, and I'm perplexed as to where it put the definitions for two sites I created. The directories that correspond to the two sites reside on an external drive. I took the drive and plugged it into another machine, launched Dreamweaver, and tried to open the sites there. Nope. I would expect the definitions to have been stored in the corresponding directories, along with the source files for the site (to accommodate this very scenario).
Where are they? Can I move them to the source directories on the external drive and access them on multiple machines without a hassle? If not, DW is out.
Thanks!

Duplicate posts? I don't see any other post on this topic.
Yes, sorry - it was a shot from the hip.
Where are the .ste files though? I'd rather not have to continually synchronize files between machines by importing and exporting. Why not just store the site definitions with the site contents?
There are NO *.ste files until you export them. Then they go where you selected as the destination for them. Once you have defined a site and exported the definition, there would be no need to ever export again unless you changed something in the definition.
You'd have to ask your other question of the DW Dev team.

Any way to override site request to not save login info?

I am the ultimate arbitrator of yes no questions. I don not care if your site requests that my browser not save my login info. I want it saved. If I can not
I do one of two things,
Not got back to the site ( if that is not practicable)
Find a browser that cares about what the USER wants

Yes, unfortunately it is removed.
It seems that 10.9.2 even causes additional problems because I can neither enter my bank account's password with 1Password anymore nor with Keychain. My password is 22 signs long and is now written on a piece of paper.
Very nice improvement!

How do I re-enter login info for web sites into the auto fill feature?

When I first got my iPhone 4 I was asked if I wanted to save the login info for the sites I need to visit. This was very convenient. But Inhad to change some passwords and clear cookies and now I have to manually re-enter the info again and again. How can I set it up so when I go to the 3 or 4 sites that I need to constantly visit already has he login info entered? When I go to Autofill it has a switch for passwords but no way to set them up. Help. I am spending half my day reentering login info again and again.

You could try going into settings, Safari, auto fill then turn on names and passwords.

How do I reset a "don't save login info" to yes, save it?

Such a simple thing but it's a problem.
Once we set the Safari toggle at a website to NOT save the login info for that site, how do we later reverse that if we want to auto login?
I imagine it's editing a .plist, but does anyone know which one and where is it?
The MacBook Pro is running Safari 4.0.4 on Leopard 10.5.8.
Appreciate any help

Safari Preferences > AutoFill > User names and passwords > Edit

I accidently hit save password on my gmail homepage and now i cannot remove my login info. i looked under firefox settings and it does not allow me to make an exception for gmail. please help!

i hit the save password mozilla function for my gmail login page by accident. when i go under preferences, i cannot add an exception for gmail. now my login info and password are permanently displayed and i cannot undo it. the closest thing is to uncheck 'remember passwords for this site' but i do not want that because there are a lot of other sites that i want that function. when i hit 'exceptions' it has 'accounts.google.com' listed but it seems to not work for gmail and i cannot manually add an exception.

Different dialog. Try here:
Firefox > Preferences > Security > Saved Passwords
Can you find it there and delete it?

Why won't FireFox save my login info anymore?

All of my saved login info no longer works and I can't get it to work. I've checked "remember passwords for sites" but still nothing. Any suggestions?

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?
If the latter happens then you have a problem with cookies that are not kept or the file that stores the cookies is corrupted.

My "website login info remember function" won't recognize/save new password changes to Yahoo mail

I've just changed my password into my Yahoo email account - however the Foxfire website login data remember function box doesn't appear asking if I want to save my new login information.
I've checked my Tools/Options/Security info and all is as should be... And my Tools/Options/Privacy/Remember History box is checked too...
In fact the "remember password data" box just popped up when I registered with this site and added my new login info to my list of saved login ID's and passwords...
Seems to be the "login data remember function" isn't recognizing my Yahoo mail login password change as new info that needs to be re-saved...

hello bthrower, websites can specify if browsers should be able to save username/passwords (through the autocomplete="off" attribute in the login form in the html source code) - this is often the case when a higher level of security is presumably required by those sites.
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.
[[Usernames and passwords are not saved]]

Save ftp login info

Is there a setting or patch to make sure that DW does
actually save my remote login info in the site definition box? It
used to save it ok in MX but in 8 every time I open DW I have to
enter uname pword to connect to remote site even though the 'Save'
checkbox is checked? A small but very annoying problem!

A reinstall *should* preserve site definitions, but you can
always export
the sites first using DW's Site Manager, just to be safe.
