Firefox is in privacy mode and the save passwords box is checked. I don't get prompted nor do I know how to say passwords.
Can passwords be saved only if the privacy is turned off?

Yes, you can't save new passwords if you are in Private Browsing mode.
You need to exit Private Browsing - Use Firefox without saving history mode if you want to save a new password.
You can access the currently saved passwords, but Firefox won't fill them automatically.
I cant turn the private browsing OFF ! :(
-> Tap ALT key or press F10 to show the Menu Bar
-> go to Tools Menu -> Options -> Privacy -> History section -> Firefox will: select "Use custom settings for history" -> REMOVE CHECKMARK from "PERMANENT PRIVATE BROWSING MODE" -> place CHECKMARKS on:
1) Remember my Browsing History
2) Remember Download History
3) Remember Search History
4) Accept Cookies from sites -> select "Exceptions..." button -> Click "Remove All Sites" at the bottom of "Exception - Cookies" window
4a) Accept Third-party Cookies -> under "Keep Until" select "They Expire"
-> REMOVE CHECKMARK from CLEAR HISTORY WHEN FIREFOX CLOSES
Check and tell if its working.

- You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
- To see all History and Cookie settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting Firefox will: Use custom settings for history
- Uncheck: [ ] "Permanent Private Browsing mode"
- Uncheck: [ ] "Automatically start Firefox in a private browsing session"
If that doesn't work then make sure that you do not start Firefox with the -private switch appended to the command line in the Firefox desktop shortcut.
