Firefox does not attempt to remember the passwords even if I click the "Remember" button and I didn't erase the passwords etc. memory of passwords

Security is set to "remember passwords" and privacy settings does NOT erase passwords. When I go to connect to a site of the bubble 'Remember password' is displayed, but does nothing when I click on "Save password". He hang around for a few seconds then disappears. When I come back on the Firefox site does not enter my username and password but still asking if I want to remember the password.

If starting in safe mode fix then try this:

It is possible that there is a problem with key3db and signons.sqlite files that store the encrypted names and passwords in Firefox.

Rename signons3.txt and signons.sqlite files in the Firefox profile folder.

You can add .old files (key3.db.old and signons.sqlite.old) names or move them to another folder to make it possible to cancel the action.

You must define a new master password after renaming or removing the signons3.txt and all the currently saved passwords are lost.

If that worked, then you can delete the renamed files that are no longer needed.

    Hey groveman21,

    Have you looked at the section of the Base names of users and passwords are not saved ? There are lots of good information in there.

    If it's only a particular site, you experience problems with, you can also delete cookies from this site in order to make the site you not forget if you have created a remember me cookie by visiting to Tools > Options > privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies" that there could be a "don't remember" cookie for this site.

  • Firefox does not take into account the settings in/etc/hosts Mac Mavericks

    Firefox sees only the first entry, defined in/etc/hosts to 127.0.0.1.

    Basically, Firefox does not see the changes to the DNS entries, that I made in/etc/hosts. Chrome is. However, later, I noticed that Safari is not to see them. After troubleshooting below, I solved the problem by moving all my/etc/hosts statements to different lines according to them here: http://www.justincarmony.com/blog/2011/07/27/mac-os-x-lion-etc-hosts-bugs-and-dns-resolution/

    I have no idea why that works. But it does not resolve the problem for Firefox and Safari.

    I have tried a number of things according to this thread: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1011327

    I tried many things (typing about: config in the address bar):
    Set keyword.enabled false
    browser.fixup.alternate.enabled set to false
    tour of DNS caching.

    None of these things worked, but did all my config/etc/hosts the migration of multiple domains on a single line to separate lines. Hope this helps someone.

  • My firefox does not work llook like the most recent version. I downloaded it on my aunts comp and in the corner upper lft, there's a firefox orange box but still just mine has firefox symbol.

    I had firefox for over a year and I recently installed on my computer of aunts. When I've done in the upper left corner, there was an orange box that says firefox on it. I have recently installed on my computer and it's always the same, as I had before. (Just the symbol of firefox) How can I get the latest version? It does not say I have the 6.2 or what is the most recent. Thank you in advance for the quick response to my question.

    Why can't I see it?

    To make Firefox look like other programs in Windows XP, the menu bar is displayed instead of the Firefox button, while under Windows Vista and Windows 7, the button is displayed by default in Firefox.

  • Firefox does not open. Cannot update or delete. Says it is already open and I can't find how to close it.

    Firefox shows that it is already open and must be closed in order to update or delete. I can't locate a place to complete the process. It's probably something very simple, but I'm not a computer genius. Thank you!

    Have you tried you look for firefox.exe in the Task Manager process tab (you can get to that by using Ctrl-Alt-Delete, usually)? If you click firefox.exe in the list and then click on end process, it should close Firefox, even if Firefox does not seem to be running (sometimes the process takes a little longer to close the main window). If all else fails, maybe a reboot?

  • Firefox does not allow me to send a Web page by clicking on the right-why?

    I used to be able to right-click on a Web page and send the page. Then, something changed and when I right click, this option was not immediately available. Instead, I had to right-click, point to a main category that then gave me two options, once that has been send through Yahoo Web page. When I did, the e-mail would fill with the link, but a lot of junk on Yahoo, too.

    Now, when I right click just two weeks later, option has completely disappeared. So, now, I can't send a webpage just be a right-click. I have to copy the link and paste the link open an email. What happened, and can we recover?

    Hello cera78, mozilla cleans its user interface from time to time. user interface studies showed that this context menu entry is only used by < 1% of users.

  • Firefox does not save previous seession Web sites, even if the box is checked.

    I recently upgraded to Firefox 5.0. I'm having two problems since the upgrade:

    1 Firefox saves more websites that I left 0pen from a previous session even if the box is checked to do. In addition, I am never given the option to 'restore previous session' in the menu background. It is always 'ghost' out and cannot be selected in the menu.

    2. when I open Firefox, I use a shortcut or go to the Web browser in any other way, multiple instances are open automatically. I suspect that the number of instances is the number of tabs that I left open in the previous session, but I'm not sure about this. They all open to a blank page, however and do not open Web sites that have been assigned to each tab in the previous session.

    Thank you for your help.

    You can check if the session restore is activated [1].

    It is possible that there is a problem with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox profile folder.

    Delete the sessionstore.js file [2] and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox profile folder.

    If you see files sessionstore-# .js with a number in the left part of the name as sessionstore - 1.js then delete those as well.

    Delete sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and groups of tabs and all tabs open to get lost, so you will need to create them again (take note or bookmarks).

  • Firefox does not load CSS for the local Web site

    Hello

    I know that you have all seen this issue before but none of the answers I have found work for me. My site loads perfectly fine in other browsers, but not Firefox.

    I have a local website with a style sheet which is saved in the same folder:

    < link rel = "stylesheet" href = "style.css" type = "text/css" / > "

    I defined the character sets in HTML and CSS documents:

    HTML =
    CSS = @charset "UTF-8";

    I have the last two updates for Chrome, IE and Firefox from today.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you

    Have you checked the Web Console (Firefox/tools > Web Developer) for error messages?

    Is the local server send the type of content appropriate for all files?

    You can load the CSS file directly via the address bar?

    You can check in "tools > Page Info > general" how Firefox to view this file.

  • I installed firefox does not resemble that in the tutorial?

    Example the tabs are not above the "awesome bar" and there is no label of firfox upstairs just menus

    The default configuration is different depending on the operating system you are using. For example, on Windows 7 and Windows Vista, Firefox orange button rather than the menu bar, but on Windows XP, the menu bar is on. Here are the settings that you can easily change.

    For the Firefox button, see the menu of Firefox instead of the menu bar button

    For tabs on top of the navigation bar, right-click anywhere on the tab bar, and select "tabs on top.

  • Firefox does not take into account the formatting

    Just made the mistake of Firefox reset. Could recover all my favorites, but now some pages aren't formatted correctly (see attachment). It is as if he is ignorant of the CSS or javascript. I have ESET. The attachment is the stack overflow, which I use all the time so it's really annoying.

    When I visit the homepage, the main stylesheet StackOverflow is loaded from this address:

    https://CDN.sstatic.NET/sites/StackOverflow/all.CSS?v=7f9acf8065f0

    If you click this link, what you get? A normal load is a giant wall of text from:

    HTML, body, div, span, applet, object, iframe, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, p, blockquote,

    You get an error message that could shed light on why it isn't loading?
