I have lost a previously stored username in my firefox password manager. How can it be restored or edited as the password is still recorded? It use dto be there and is on other PCs I use, but just not on this PC.

My 'myyahoo' homepage used to come up without entering username and password. but now needs the username every time I open firefox. Username for this page no longer is included in password manager although the password is.

If the name field is empty them you may need to remove that entry and make Firefox remember it on the next visit if you fill it. It is possible that you cleared the name filed at some point while logging in.
