Saved passwords

Hey all you Firefox users out there: is there any way to access them? I'd like to look at what I have; I suspect there are quite a few from sites I rarely visit and would like to delete them if possible. Can it be done?

Re: Saved passwords

Click Tools -> Options and then the security tab.
Click Saved Password button half way down the page and enter the master password if prompted.
Click Show Passwords if you want to view them

Re: Saved passwords

Nor do I! I don't even have Tools!

I thought it might be that I have an older version of Firefox (2.0.0.17 ...cannot upload the latest one).

Where can I find Tools?

I'm on version 3.6.6 of Firefox so I'm up to date there.

As Cassie said, Tools shows up in the bar at the top of your screen......... after the Apple sign, Eileen.

I wonder if it's because we both use Macs that Options doesn't show? All I have in Tools is .......Web Search, Downloads, Add-ons, Error Console, Page info, Start Private Browsing and Clear Recent History.

Re: Saved passwords

I thought Cassie meant Tools in the Firefox preferences. Yes, I have that at top of my screen: File, Edit, View, etc.

And the same in Tools as Mags plus a DOM Inspector, whatever that is.

Re: Saved passwords

Thanks for trying, Cassie! Anyone else out there with a Mac who can find the Options section in Tools?
