In Firefox, and Firefox only, in every version for the last several months, I have found it impossible to get Firefox to allow websites to "remember this device", even when I check that option. Every day I log in to a website, for example Tmobile, and I have to get a code emailed to me. I check "remember this device so you won't need a code next time", but the next time I log in, the same thing happens. Over and over with many sites. This does not happen with any other browser, except Firefox. How do I get Firefox to allow me to save my info? I really don't want to use Chrome, Safari, Brave, or Edge, but I do not have this problem with any of them. Only Firefox. And yes, I've checked my settings, and everything I can see says Firefox should be saving this info.

Hello, I clear my history, cookies etc quite often. However, this also clears my master password and I have to reenter it. Is there a way to clear all the junk but stay signed in with the master password? I have attached an image of how I have it configured. Thank you

A few days ago I did a deep clean of my computer. Since then, when I turn on my computer, all websites in the Firefox browser require a complicated login (e.g. Facebook), with confirmation on the phone. How to log in with a remembered password? Remembering your password via Facebook doesn't work

so I am trying to de-google and moved from Windows to MAC. BUT, none of my auto text shortcuts work, my email isn't being populated in fields where it should be (I don't save passwords in FF, I use bitwarden).

Spell check doesn't seem to work either, all of these DO work on Chrome :(

Any ideas, I tried to turn on a setting I read on some old post (9 years ago) about the following setting but it didn't work.

widget.macos.automatic.text_replacement=true

I've started to rebuild my saved password file, site by site. I lost access immediately after the last update, so am concerned that this could be irrecoverable. Is it an update error or some malign act? On the plus side, it is, I suppose, an opportunity to lose many years of accumulated dross, but I do fear some nasty side-effect. Please help.

Hi, this AM South Australia time, Firefox did an update again. Later I needed to sign onto Ebay, which required a Capcha verification. After several attempts failed. EBay's solution was to use a different browser. Edge worked fine. What has happened?

Previously asked this question but didn't receive any Mozilla support. All they replied with was "we really only help with account or VPN issues now."

How is someone supposed to get a bug taken care of?

Since update to version 132, the primary password box keeps popping up, randomly, even after I put in the password. Only started happening after update to 132.

Can someone from Mozilla actually look into this?

I am located in Israel, but have set my default display language to English.

Over the past few weeks, when I go from the Google search page (my home screen in Firefox) to Gmail, the "select account" screen displays in Hebrew rather than English. Once I've selected an email account, however, the display reverts to English.

This is a minor annoyance, as I can easily navigate the Hebrew page, but it is a recent change, and I can find no explanation for it.

I have checked to see whether the problem occurs in another browser (Chrome) and it does not.

Any help would be appreciated

Using Firefox on macOS 15.1 & 15.2 we get into an authentication loop when using a Yubikey with Firmware 5.7.1. This can be tested on the Webauthn.io test page Once you created an account with a PIN and subsequently try to login, you will asked for a PIN over and over agin.

With the old, or at least older, release, when I logged in to a site using my password I could either save the password or use a drop down to never save. The "never save" used to work, it doesn't now or I'm missing something that will give me the opportunity to choose which passwords I can save and which I want to "never save". Please clarify - am I doing something wrong?

Greetings, I'm curious as to why, when working with passwords for websites and such, every time I click on one of the password entries I have saved in Firefox, which are many, when I back out it goes all the way back to the top instead of going back to where I was in the list like it should? Or at least like all others do... Also there is no date for when the entries were created like other browsers also have. In fact there's no other information at all nor is there a link to the site that the passwords are for. I find this very primative compared to other browsers.

I'm trying to clean things up in there as far as getting rid of old or duplicate entries because I've had a hard time logging into websites that I normally use because of the confusion with some of the entries. It seems like the old information is just bumped when I update passwords and this also seems like an issue that needs attention.

I don't experience these issues with either Chrome, Edge, or DDG however they are not quite ready to become my default browser as I've been using Firefox for a very long time compared to those ones and I have most of my saved info for all the sites I use with FF and trying to get any of the others up to where I am with FF would take a lot of work even with an automated import  to one of the others. 

On top of that I'm just more comfortable using FF because of how long I have been. I have some other issues I may have also posted about but it seems that my lack of fluffiness doesn't sit well with the fluffers who seem to respond with comments about how I word things and how much info I include, which is only meant to help someone who actually wants to help rather than critique my post structure and content and I don't understand why they even feel compelled to comment other than to be somewhat offensive with the intent to make it seem as though my posts are offensive.

In any sort of real world environment my posts would be totally acceptable and would get answers that were actually answers to my questions rather than rhetoric. If this one becomes more of the same with what I've just said, then possibly it will be time to do what I have to on order to become more familiar with a different browser and make it my default. 

I hope this will not be the case however I feel that I don't get proper support out of the communities and the actual Mozilla FF support seems to have vanished in lieu of this highly opinionated and subjectively oriented group of users, most of which have nothing to do with the development of the browser. I guess we will see...

I cannot log on to one particular forum account in Firefox. https://www.corvetteforum.com/

Other browsers work OK. In the past I could login fine. How do I correct this.
