Firefox does not ask me to change a password stored in the local password database when I change it to a HTTP SVN repo that authenticates via LDAP

Access to multiple repositories served via HTTP SVN. Authentication is done via LDAP. Firefox is able to save passwords for pop up dialog boxes provided by the SVN server for authentication. Periodically, I change my password for LDAP in Active Directory. When I access the SVN rest once again, I have change the password is entered in the dialog box, but Firefox do not ask me to update. Earlier (FF 3.x), Firefox asked me to update the password in the stored passwords. With FF 7.0.1 it does not prompt me for that and retains the old password.

Original description:

Let's say that I kept the password for some sites. As time goes by, I change the password on this site. Now, the next time I connect, password manager offers to enter my old information. I type in my password and enter the site. Earlier (FF 3.x), Firefox asked me to update the password in the stored passwords. With FF 7.0.1 it does not prompt me for that and retains the old password.

OK, I feel like a fool. Turns out that the HTTP Server was in the list of exceptions, but under his own 192.168.X.X IP address rather than the hostname of our SVN server resolved internally. I missed which I was looking for the host name. Once I removed the IP address of the exceptions list entry, the problem has been resolved.

    What is the start setting?

    Tools > Options > general > startup: 'when Firefox starts '.

    In Firefox 3, you don't get popup "Save and quit" dialog box if you choose Tools > Options > general > startup: "When Firefox starts": "show my windows and tabs from last time '.

    If this option is selected then your pages will be already reopened the next time.

    To get this pop up dialog box, select one of the other options (display my home page, display a blank page).

  • Firefox does not ask for confirmation when exit/close with several tabs open

    I'm having the same problem as user here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1139845 (only I have different OS)

    When multiple tabs open, Firefox ask me never confirmation when I click Firefox close window button in the corner (usually accidentally). And I would like confirmation.

    about: config I have:

    true browser.showQuitWarning (it is marked as custom value (bold), default is false)

    true browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab

    and when I close Firefox (usually accidentally) I get window of journalist of crash that I submit usually.

    Update: claims of a member who never close the confirmation appears for only one Firefox window, only several windows of Firefox. According to me, that this is of people probably half of bad idea is not using multiple windows, only the multiple tabs.

    All you need to do is use the Previous Session Restore, either the default value: House in the lower right corner or history homepage > restoration of previous Session. ...

    Thank you very much for the input. Indeed, I go to Options/General and together "when Firefox starts:" 'Show my home page' and when I click on X to close the FF button, then asked to FF:

    "Want you Firefox to save your tabs for the next time it starts? I click on "Save and exit" when I start FF, tabs are automatically re-open! :-) It's very, very happy.

    I never thought tabs will be reopened when the blank page is set initially. And I did not tried because I usually have several tabs open, so do not wanted to risk. For me, the issue is resolved. THX

  • Firefox does not recognize certificates of any of my banks since the update itself to 35.0.

    I had to switch to Internet Explorer, because all of a sudden I can't sign to one of my banks of Firefox without substitution of this warning:
    "This connection is Untrusted.
    You asked Firefox to connect safely to www.capitalone.com, but we cannot confirm that your connection is secure.
    Normally, when you try to connect safely, sites will present a reliable identification to prove that you're in the right place. However, the identity of this site cannot be verified. etc etc.

    (I prefer Firefox and want to come back.)

    In fact for one of the banks, Firefox not even let me substitute. Capital One, Wells Fargo, USAA Insurance... I am sure that their certificates are all in the right order... and that they expire the same day.
    Come on, Mozilla, you took the decision to switch me to automatic updates, not of me... and that's why I didn't... I'd rather have someone else work out the bugs before you update.
    Please show me how to recover my banks access.
    Thank you

    I found the problem:
    FireFox itself upgrade 35 around the same time that I updated my Kaspersky Internet Security. Two new applications are not compatible.
    If I had just the new KIS or if I was just the new Firefox, there is no problem.
    There is a workaround solution that works very well, and I posted it in the forum of users of Kaspersky. (Is to add a "fake" certificate of Kaspersky Kaspersky supplies you.)
    I'm still not satisfied that Firefox took away my ability to NOT update to Firefox.

  • Firefox does not correctly close after use with Thunderbird, is at the end of the task with the Manager tasks

    After clicking on a link in Thunderbird e-mail, Firefox opens the first time, but after the closure, I am unable to open it again, as it says that Firefox still works even if it isn't. The process runs as indicated by the Task Manager again and I at the end of task to reload Firefox.

Other users have reported that the problem has been fixed in Firefox 30 beta8. You can go ahead and download the latest beta version to see if the problem stops there. I'd like to hear if it is resolved.

  • Firefox does not open Office bookmarks saved, by default, always to the homepage, why is this?

    28 all shortcuts in Firefox desktop works great. I like being able to start Firefox on a specific page. It seems now that I can open only to my home page or a blank page. It's terrible! I tried to create new shortcuts Firefox 29 office and I get the same result. Really terrible.

  • My new addition of Firefox does not have an address bar. How to install this. I don't want to use a search engine every time that I know the address.

    I would also have my old favorite tool and have not lined up on the side of the opening page.

    First of all, make sure that you are not in mode "full screen". The F11 function key toggles between the normal modes and full screen.

    Then, you can enable/disable the various toolbars using the Classic View menu. If you use the Firefox orange (abbreviated menus) button, press the ALT key, or press the F10 key to display the classic menu bar.

    If you are already showing the "Navigation toolbar", but the part of the address box is missing, you can reset your toolbars to their default values. Here's how:

    (1) the folder settings personal (AKA Firefox profile)

    Help (or Alt + h) > troubleshooting information > "view file" button.

    (2) switch back to Firefox and quit the program (for example, file > exit)

    (3) wait a few moments for Firefox complete update of the files in the settings folder, then rename localstore.rdf to something else, like localstore - bad.rdf or localstore.old. Alternatively, you can delete the file.

    (4) you are finished with your profile folder and you can restart Firefox now.

    A little luck?

  • I installed "HP smart web printing" and went to the post OFFICE and he said that it has been disabled because firefox does not support this extension. Is it possible in the near future to consider adding this EXT compatible program?

    It is compatible with the Explorer, but I'd really prefer to work with Firefox, but I also really like this HP program. Thank you

    It's HP to make it compatible with Firefox. As far as I KNOW, this add-on was not compatible with Firefox for a few years already, like maybe the version of Firefox 3.5. I used this add-on in 2006 and 2007 and gave up using because HP has always been very loose on update when a new version of Firefox has been released. As it took months of HP 9 update to a new version of Firefox and then 3 months later, a new version of Firefox was released and it stop working again.

    You can check the browser.chrome.toolbar_tips pref on the topic: config page.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).
