Thank you, My dell laptop win 7 pro, latest firefox, have one cell phone added to device.

Cell phone, android 4.4.4 droid maxx, firefox for android.

When I access two email accounts from my cell phone I go right in with no password.

When I try to access other accounts it asks for a master password, when I enter the password it just goes back to "enter master password", if I hit cancel 4-7 times it will go away and let me in but I have to manually enter password. Reloaded firefox, very few apps,automatic updates.

This sounds like the normal behaviour, if you have a Master Password enabled on your Android device. When you have a Master Password enabled, you can't access your saved logins and passwords without entering the Master Password.

See Using Master Password on Firefox for Android for more information.

As a side note, your logins and passwords will not sync to or from your Android device if you have Master Password enabled, due to a technical limitation.

Hope this helps.
