How do I set it up to remember my passwords on certain sites if I said no by accident? the tab only allows me to adjust the ones saved. I need to know how to make them if I didn't do so the first time

I accidently did not save the passwords to some sites I would like to have the password remembered. I went in to try to maybe reset it so that the pop up window would come up again. but it won't let me do it again. How do I get the password to be remembered so I can stay logged in to the specific sites I want to be. I sure hope that made sense. Thanks for your help Christina

Also, please try deleting the sites in Tools (Alt + T) > Options > Security > Exceptions... (under Passwords). The sites listed there are those for which Firefox will never remember passwords.
