can't get firefox to save yahoo password
So, at one point I had firefox save my Yahoo email password...than yahoo made me change my password so it'll say invalid password if I try to login (since password field has my old password saved). After I enter the new password I get no option to "update" my password. So every time I login I have to erase the old saved password and type the new one.
I went to firefox > preferences > security > saved passwords. and deleted the old password, but when I login now it doesn't give me the option of or question to save the password.
On Mac 10.9.2 using firefox 28.0

Tried Firefox Sync? It's awesome! Switch computers & it saves open tabs, passwords, history . Try it
Let us know if this work .
The Yahoo website uses autocomplete=off to prevent Firefox from saving form data like name and password.
You can remove autocomplete=off with a bookmarklet to make Firefox store form data like names and passwords.
Note that Firefox won't auto-fill saved form data automatically when autocomplete=off is used, so you need to double-click the empty name field to get a drop-down list.
Go to the Mozilla Add-ons Web Page (There’s a lot of good stuff here). There are several add-ons that can help.
