I want to record existing passwords for a reinstall of Firefox

Firefox 14.2.0, 14.1 64-bit Slackware.

My user account contains data from Firefox to the initial version of Firefox (some years ago). I want to completely remove the Firefox directory tree and start (there are a bunch of stuff in there that I don't give a hoot on and he gets to start). But, I don't want to register log in passwords for existing installation and so I must manually re-enter them in a clean install. I don't care about history or history, just the navigation log and download data from password for external sites.

How can I do?

Also, is it possible to separate the browsing history and download history? They came together in this version (boring - I don't give a hoot about the history of downloads). Once they were separated, now they are combined.

I have no problem by manually editing prefs.js if that's what it takes but I wish I had a clue or two in the right direction.

Thank you.

That download-cleaner add-on sounds like a Real Good Idea but it's not available for firefox-24.3.0esr-x86_64-1 (yet, maybe never but I'll check periodically.

Oh, the latest version requires Firefox 26 or later. The previous version works with Firefox 19 and later versions:

  • How to make Firefox ask again me if I want to save a password for a website when I already said it not?

    I go to a website and log on to it.
    Firefox asks me if I want to save the password.
    I say no.
    Later, I decide that I don't want Firefox to save the password on this website.

    How can I make Firefox ask me if I want to save this password again?

    The Web site is not listed in the (Options-Security-passwords-Exceptions) list.

    I see that you always use the old version of Firefox 29.

    In this version autocomplete = off on the form will prevent Firefox to store the name and the password.
    In this version, you have the signon.overrideAutocomplete set to true.
    In Firefox 29, the default value is false, and in the current version this pref is set to true by default and will bring up the door hanger to remember the password.

    But you need to update to version Firefox 34 because Firefox 29 known security vulnerabilities.

  • How can I change the password for my access using firefox?

    Responses deny there no password - however, now and then I asks me to confirm that I am the person identified in the MY Yahoo - I wonder a user name and password.

    An example is when I change computers and Yahoo or Mozilla does not recognize the new computer.

    I don't understand not - Yes normally, I simply open the browser and use it. BUT!

    I'm probably using jargon bad for what I want to change.

    OK - I now understand that the password I want to change is internal to Firefox and used to protect my privacy when I try to open the mail or other personal areas.

    I think I can find the place to do this.

  • FYI: How to reset the password for the LC Server

    Question

    If you want to change the password for server you must do it manually in the database.

    Reason

    The administrator password is the single password that is stored in the EDCPrincipalLocalAccountEntity database table.

    Solution

    To select the correct record, run this query:

    SELECT uidstring, password, salt
    OF adobe.edcprincipallocalaccountentity A, adobe.edcprincipaluserentity B
    WHERE A.refuserprincipalid = b.id AND b.uidstring = 'administrator ';

    The values in the password field and salt together form the password of the administrator account. On an installation of the example where the administrator account password was "password" the password field was defined as:

    TXScDjEEQCzWccUMUdf8wijx / it =

    and the field of salt has been fixed:

    JNIBnmos3d0WE9W8oquFIQ is

    To reset your password to "password" run this update command to update the two fields in the EDCPrincipalLocalAccountEntity table with the values above and you should be able to connect.

    UPDATED adobe.edcprincipallocalaccountentity, adobe.edcprincipaluserentity
    SET password = "TXScDjEEQCzWccUMUdf8wijx / it = ', salt =' JNIBnmos3d0WE9W8oquFIQ =='"
    WHERE adobe.edcprincipallocalaccountentity.refuserprincipalid = adobe.edcprincipaluserentity.id
    AND adobe.edcprincipaluserentity.uidstring = 'administrator ';

    You may need to restart the application server for these changes to take effect.

    More information

    This solution has been verified on a database of MySQL with LiveCycle ES 8.0.  The schema of database for later versions of LiveCycle ARE (8.2.1, 9, 10 etc.), and of other types (Oracle, SQL Server) databases may be different and may require changes to the SQL statements above.

    In some databases, the table 'edcprincipallocalaccountentity' does not exist, but is represented by the table "edcprincipallocalaccount". The information in this TechNote is provided as-is and should be tested before applying it to a production database.  Is recommended to perform a full backup of the database before applying the changes.

    I could reset.

    but when the account is locked, then wait for a while. It unlocks automatically. above the solution is if you forgot the password. Then use the method above to reset the password to "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.
