How do I get Firefox to remember my new password?

[gin]

If updating it to the latest version(18.0.1) doesn't solve this, reinstalling might. Thing is I recently formatted my hard drive and have a fresh copy of firefox on me. It now remembers my user and pass on facebook unlike before. Incidentally it only happened to me on facebook. Other sites had no problem whatsoever so maybe it's a facebook feature to ensure security. Before reinstalling try to clear your cache, go to (Tools>Clear Recent History) and choose Everything from the drop down menu before deleting remembered passwords. Then try to make it remember your password again on facebook. Now if you plan to reinstall, don't forget to save your bookmarks(Bookmarks>Show All Bookmarks>Import and Backup>Backup or Export Bookmarks to HTML). Hope that helps.
