When I fill in a form with name, address, etc..., Firefox automatically fills in everything correctly except for my email address. Where can I change Firefox (version 111) to use the correct email address? Thanks, Dan

Hey!

Take a look to this page: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/automatically-fill-your-address-web-forms#w_edit-your-saved-addresses

Hope it helps you! Let me know if the issue persist.

Suggestions in a login drop-down list that have a key icon in front are login suggestions that you need to remove in the Password Manager.

Suggestions in a drop-down list without a key symbol are autocomplete saved form data. Suggestions without a key icon are part of autocomplete saved form data that you should be able to remove by selecting this item with the cursor Down key and pressing Delete (Mac: Shift+Delete).

Thanks for your replies, but your suggestion led to correcting my snail-mail address and I need to correct my email address. Sorry if I wasn't clear on that. Dan

Hey Dan,

When you delete the wrong email address, put the correct address and submit the form, Firefox normally asks you if you want to save this information. Just click on "save".

Hi ysfff:

  I did what you suggested but once again, the drop-down list does not contain email addresses (which is what I want to modify), only street addresses. I need to find the place where FireFox is storing the email addresses for forms it will fill in on my behalf.

Dan
