When I first downloaded FF one of the features I liked most was that it asked my if I wanted FF to save my password. One of the sites I saved was facebook. About a week ago FF stopped saving password and even though it's my primary server, will not even ask me any more on any site!

I have also asked FF to go immediately to my personalized yahoo home page but it won't. It will only go to the generic yahoo page and I have to sign in and click on my yahoo every time.

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

  • You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
  • To see all History and Cookie settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting Firefox will: Use custom settings for history
  • Deselect: [ ] "Permanent Private Browsing mode"
