Is it only with the one site? Any problem on other sites?

Open the Password Manager and confirm the password is correct. Make sure there are not more than one entry.

Type about:preferences#security<enter> in the address bar.

Under Logins, Turn on Remember Logins. To check the passwords you have listed, press Saved Logins.
