I accidentally selected remove all passwords. Can I get them back?
I thought that I was removing one password and accidentally removed them all.
I read all of the material about passwords and using them on separate profiles or computers. I can not find an answer to my question.
Can I recover the passwords or do I have to re-save them all.
Also, along the way I have gotten my "remember" button disabled for saving new passwords. How can I restore that?

The only way to restore them would be if you backed up the files that contain the passwords. If you do create backups, you need to restore 2 files, key3.db and signons.sqlite into your current profile folder.
For the second question, see the username and password not remembered article.
Also make sure that you not run Firefox in (permanent) Private Browsing - Use Firefox without saving history mode
- You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
- To see all History settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting Firefox will: Use custom settings for history
- Uncheck: [ ] "Automatically start Firefox in a private browsing session"
