Firefox won't save bookmarks, passwords or preferences. He also won't save Favorites and imported settings of Safari. I tried the suggestions of help, but nothing seems to work. All the settings seem to be correct. I reloaded the software several times. When I allow Firefox import settings of Safari, it takes more than 40 minutes and then loses everything when I restart Firefox. I tried to start Firefox in safe mode, but it does not help.
I use Mac OS on a MacBook Pro 17 "2011 start 10.6.8. Everything else on the computer seems to work very well.

The problems are gone now. However, I'll never know exactly what that caused them. When I restarted the computer in safe mode problems continue. But when I tried to restart my computer does not recognize the hard drive in safe mode or in normal mode.
It is possible that the Firefox problems were caused by a faulty hard drive.
I was able to rebuild the directory with Disk Warrior and transfer my files, but the disk would not boot. Fortunately, I had a spare hard drive. I installed and reloaded all my software and data from scratch. I also downloaded the latest version of Firefox. Firefox works fine now.
Thanks for all your suggestions. They may not have fixed this particular problem, but I learned a few new tricks from you to solve other problems.

Adobe reader software: my computer won't save adobe reader or any player of pdf files
my computer won't save adobe reader or any player of pdf files
Download and save > then install.
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/find-a-file-you-have-downloaded
Search for a file that you have downloaded
This information applies to Windows Internet Explorer 7 and Windows Internet Explorer 8.
When you use Internet Explorer to download a file from Internet, you are usually asked where you want to store the file. If you specify where you want the file to be stored, Internet Explorer try normally put a file in the appropriate place. For example, documents and Web pages are normally saved in the Documents folder, music music files in the folder, and the images and graphics are saved in the pictures folder. In Internet Explorer 7, which could potentially harmful, such as executable programs, files are saved in the folder of the first temporary Internet files, and then copied in the folder you specified. Programs and various downloads are also sometimes saved to the downloads folder. Here are some tips on searching for files, that you downloaded.
If you download a file, and the save file dialog box appears, it is best to specify the folder in which you want to save the file to. This will save time later. If you save multiple files, Windows will normally remember the last folder you have saved, if you do not have to specify the folder again.
See you soon.

Why my computer won't remember my password when I boot?
I have windows xp running ie8. I received a notice that my computer password was expiring I went on my admin account and changed. Since then, whenever I turn on my computer, he asked my password. Y does it I ask the computer if in memory so I have to sign in each time. I jumped through all kinds of 'suggestions' to address this problem, but alas, my PC always wants to know who I am when I connect! SOS! (Save our sanity)
If you don't want a password at startup, change your password in the box to put anything. There will be no password.

My xp media center has worked very well for years, but since installing K2502898 on March 9, 2011, although there is spare 50 GB on drive C and spare 50 GB on drive D, record space fell to less than 30 minutes, and although I can increase the amount of space available to save , on the two disks and click 'Save', it is not 'save' even on reset, and I can't work out what to do. I tried to re-creation of the installation of Media Center, but when the wizard reaches the last window to close and save I get 'critical error' and it hangs. It was fine on March 8, 2011 before the automatic updates have been installed.
Can someone, please (I don't have disks set-up, just to anticipate "Please insert your boot disk...) »)

I can navigate backward and forward in a tab, or in the session browser, but as soon as the tab or the session closes it is like all the record is erased from my computer. I don't know if the problem is my computer or firefox, but it doesn't seem to be anything like this mentioned there and I would really appreciate the help.
One possible cause is a problem with the places.sqlite file that stores the bookmarks and history.

VPS Config will not save the password
I am running 10.11.4 on what we'll call the Machine B and I'm trying to config a VPN which is supposed to connect to a Mac OS X Server running a VPN L2TP.
Another machine, we'll call the Machine A, connects to the VPN without problem. So, I know that the problem is NOT server-side.
So in sys prefs, you can access the network, and I have my VPN connection in there. Under authentication, I have two fields, one password and one for the shared secret.
On computer A, when I go to look at settings, these two are saved correctly. This is why Machine A connects to the VPN without problem.
On Machine B, I enter the password and the shared secret. I hit OK. If I click the authentication settings button once again, I see the points demonstrating the existence of a stored value of password and the shared secret. Then I click APPLY. Now if I click authentication settings, the password and the shared secret are empty!
This happens again and again. I can't understand why. No wonder my VPN will not connect if this f-in computer won't save the authentication settings.
Moreover, the VPN used to work perfectly without a problem. Then something happened - he asked me a password for my VPN unexpectedly. Never, since the VPN not working and I can't make it work because of this problem.
Hello
We discovered a machine here at our office today who had exactly the same problem. Your post was the only one I could find that describes our problem exactly.
Our machine is a Macbook Pro, El Cap 10.11.4
I found a solution that allowed me to recreate the VPN connection through the command line.
Once the VPN connection has been recreated the shared key has been registered successfully in its field in the connection settings.
This script https://github.com/halo/macosvpn saved the day.
We use Cisco IPSec that is described on how to enter in the CLI to the bottom of the page, but L2TP is mentioned above.
Good luck!

Firefox saves some passwords, but not others
It won't save my password for mail.yahoo.com but stores all my other passwords. I entered NOTHING in the Exceptions box under Security > passwords, and no. Yahoo entered any there in the section registered passwords.
I tried to restart all and clear all cache and user data.
The Web of Yahoo site uses autocomplete = off to prevent registration of data in form as the name and password of Firefox.
You can remove autocomplete = off with a bookmarklet to make Firefox to store data of form such as names and passwords.
Note that Firefox doesn't form data automatically populate automatically saved when autocomplete = off is used, you must double-click the empty name field for a drop-down list.

This means that a different password was in effect at this point, even if your daughter thinks otherwise. There are a lot of options built into Windows to help you out of this situation:- Log on to your account admin to spare, and then reset the password for your existing account (works only if you set up an alternative admin account).
- Log in as administrator mode without failure, then reset the password for your existing account (the password is usually empty).
- Insert your flash drive USB with the password key file (only works if you have taken the time to create such a key file).
- Use the password indicator (only works if an indicator was created and if it's good enough to allow you to guess the password)
- Check your paper files (works only if you threw down the password somewhere)
The most important point would be: run a machine without a spare admin account is about as risky to have a house key. Sooner or later, he is at risk for any number of reasons. -
Why is the box to remember password is gray? It used to work now it won't save them.
Why is the box to remember password is gray? It used to work now it won't save them.
This could be because you have set Firefox not remember the history. Who did you intentionally? It is defined in the Options dialog box:
"3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Options > privacy
Maybe it would work if you choose "Use the custom settings for history" and not to turn off specific things that you want to disable.
A little luck?

Firefox asks me if I want to save a password even though I have this selected setting
Firefox asks me if I want to save a password even though I have this parameter selected; I even deleted the passwords thinking that might help and I went back to the site, connected, and he asked me to save him. I even downloaded a Firefox another, 9.0.1, and it won't always ask me. What is the solution?
Thank you very much; It works now!

I use my work computer to connect to gmail, aol, etc via Firefox. And because of security, I NEVER want that Firefox saves a password for any Web site that I connect. Therefore, whenever I connect what either through Firefox I get this annoying drop-down menu asking if I want to save the password, never save the password or not now. If there is a way for me to disable this option completely and stop asking me that and NEVER save a password?

Firefox asks me if I want to save my password
I just bought a new computer, downloaded the latest firefox (did not import information from my old computer firefox yet), and although I've seen the guest waited to save a password when you enter a site once (I don't not saved it at the time), the prompt is not displayed. the same thing occurs for any site, it asks me ever if I want to save a password. I double checked my settings, and I put it properly to the request (click on the box to 'remember the password for sites', do not have "private browsing" mode is (is dimmed oust), have disabled modules I've had (I have AdBlock and McAfee as Add-ons), have restarted Firefox several times and still no luck) He never asks me if I want to save a password for logon on any sites. I am running Windows 7 and using Firefox 3.6.11. Help! Thank you.
