Make sure that you do not run Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode.

To see all History and Cookie settings, choose:

  • Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting Firefox will: Use custom settings for history
  • Deselect: [ ] "Automatically start Firefox in a private browsing session"
  • Deselect: [ ] "Always use private browsing mode" (Firefox 7+)
