Stopped remembering e-mails on facebook

When I installed the new firefox update, it deleted all of my previously stored e-mails on facebook. I've tried basically everything to get firefox to remember those e-mails(a lot of people use the computer so it's annoying to type in your e-mail every single time).

These are what my settings look like so I'm confused as to what to do. Help please!

There are no cookies associated with facebook, either.

You can also check Tools > Options > Privacy > History: "Remember search and form history"

Did you ever use Delete browsing, search and download history on Firefox to clear personal data?


  • Make sure that you not run Firefox in Private Browsing - Use Firefox without saving history mode
  • In Private Browsing mode some menu items are disabled (grayed) and features like visited links are disabled and not showing
  • You are in Private Browsing mode if you see "Tools > Stop Private Browsing", possibly grayed
  • You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
  • To see all History settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting Firefox will: Use custom settings for history
  • Uncheck: [ ] "Automatically start Firefox in a private browsing session"

Do you mean user name and passwords or saved form data ?

Did you check the exceptions: Tools > Options > Security: Passwords: Exceptions ?


  • Websites remembering you and automatically log you in is stored in a cookie.
  • You need an allow cookie exception (Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: Exceptions) to keep that cookie, especially for secure websites and if you let cookies expire when Firefox closes
  • Make sure that you do not use Delete browsing, search and download history on Firefox to clear the "Cookies" and the "Site Preferences"
