It's possible you saved a login without the password... In Tools -> Options -> Security -> Show Passwords, do you see a username stored with your google entry? If not, enable debugging and attach output here... See: http://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox:Password_Manager_Debugging

It is possible. However, in the Passwords section, I can not see the username, since it seems to be registered the opposite way (password without username). After enabling, I did not see any errors when I press TAB (which displays the password without any username previously input, as shows in the image attached here). Here are the logs:

Login Manager: domEventListener: got event blur
Login Manager: fillPassword autocomplete username: 
Login Manager: Searching for logins matching host: https://www.google.com, formSubmitURL: https://www.google.com, httpRealm: null
Login Manager: Found a matching login, filling in password.

The only difference between a correct one and this is the"fillPassword" line, which comes with something, like:

Login Manager: domEventListener: got event blur
Login Manager: fillPassword autocomplete username: {username}
Login Manager: Searching for logins matching host: https://www.google.com, formSubmitURL: https://www.google.com, httpRealm: null
Login Manager: Found a matching login, filling in password.

Thanks for your help and attention.

So, I'm having a hard time understanding what you're describing, but from what I can see it looks like you've somehow managed to save a login that only contains a password. [This is supported, and useful on some sites, although I'm not sure how it would happen on Google unless you tried to log in after only typing a password.]

Delete the saved login that doesn't have a username, and the problem will go away.

Yes, I understand. I just dont know how it saved my password but not my username, since I did not do that purposefully. Anyway, once I deleted ans saved again, it worked just fine.

Just wanted to share this in case it might affect other users.

Thanks for your time and help.
