Why is firefox not saving previously stored passwords after upgrade to 33.0, all proper settings to have this happen are selected and were in previous version.

After I upgraded to FF 33.0, none of my previous website usernames or passwords were saved when I browsed them. None! I have looked at FAQ responses and carefully looked at my 'Privacy' settings and they are all set to have FF save user names and/or passwords. My cookie settings are 'remember browsing...history' - 'remember search...history' - 'Accept cookies...' 'Accept third-party cookies / Never - and 'Keep until I close FF'

Do I need to select 'Keep until: they expire' for cookies?

hello tom, can you try to remove the remember passwords addon (this is now longer needed, since firefox is now ignoring the autocomplete=off parameter in password fields by default), restart the browser and see if this is making any difference?

This solution worked - I did remove the installed 'remember password' add-on, and FF is back to where it was, remember-passwords-wise, before I upgraded to FF 33.0.

Thanks!
