I have just set up Firefox with my gmail account. I have a secondary account and my wife also has an account - but to access these I have to go back into Google. Is there a way I can get into these form the Firefox home page?

I take it the Password Manager is auto-filling?

Over-write the user and password fields with another account. When asked about overwriting the current information by the Password Manager, click NO. This should store the new user/password with the old.

When returning to the site, the PM will not fill in anything. In the user field, enter the first letters of the account you want to use, then choose from the list displayed.

I don't think that this is possible. You would likely have to do this via the Google email website. You can have multiple Google email logins active at the same time, so maybe try to pin these to the new tab page to see if that works.

See this article about the New Tab page (about:newtab):

You can change the order of the boxes on the about:newtab page and drag an item to a different tile to pin it to that position or you can remove a website by clicking the close X to block that URL. You can drag a bookmark or history item from the sidebar and drop it in a tile on the about:newtab page to pin this item and have your own favorites sites present.
