Facebook had changed recently and I was giver a temporary password to acess it Fine. But now I want to change my password back. To do this I must first key in that 'temporary 'password and because I didn'd edit my bookmark, recording it there I now cannot switch back until I can see what Firefox stored as my FB password.

I don't know how to navigate within Firefox to where passwords are stored - I believe that to be in my Firefox Profile but I don't know where that profile file is stored
