Why is Safari no longer auto-filling in passwords?

Up until this morning, Safari and Keychain were working and would auto-fill in passwords to various websites. I changed no preferences, deleted no keychain items, nor made any changes to the security settings, but now Safari refuses to fill in passwords. I also can't find these passwords in the Keychain Access; if I *change* the password, Safari asks if I would like to change the stored password. If I say 'yes', there is still no password recorded in the Keychain. If I try to make a new account on a website with a new password, Safari pops up with its usual suggested password; if I select it and move forward, I can not find this stored password anywhere (either Keychain or Safari). ***? I should just use 1Pass and Chrome.
The only weird thing that happened was I was trying to select between two different accounts/passwords on a website; it gave the usual beige/yellow selection box for selecting which stored password/acct to use, then it just went away before I could select something. After that, the above behavior started.

Back up all data. Open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the Keychain box. You'll be prompted to delete the local iCloud keychain. Confirm—the data will remain on the servers. Then re-check the box. Follow one of the procedures described in this support article to set up iCloud Keychain on an additional device. Test.

I dont want in some sites auto fill the password but rather i want if i put atleast three correct entry then the password box be auto filled...plz reply asap...

dont auto fill d password in some sites but auto fill after atleast three correct entry..as gmail other member r also used this...

You can disable auto-fill (I'm using this as well), but you can't delay this by having to enter the same name more than once.
You can set the Boolean pref signon.autofillForms to false on the about:config page.
*You can open the about:config page via the location bar and accept the warning

Auto fill-in passwords

In 2.0, I used the 1Password App for auto fill-in. I installed 3.0 and activated auto fill-in in Settings. However, if a site logs me out automatically, how do I cause Safari to enter the password when I log back in? 1Password fills in the User ID and password every time, but for some reason Safari in 3.0 seems only to fill in the User ID? Perhaps I configured it wrong.

I think this information is stored in
/Users/Library/Safari/Form Values
I've no idea if it's possible to read it (opened in TextEdit, it's encrypted).
But I wonder if it's possible to use a unix command that concatenates the two Form Value files on each Mac into one? If you want to try this make sure you keep a back up of each original Form Value file belonging to each Mac before messing about. Safari should be closed too.
Copy both files onto a single Desktop, you'll need to name them uniquely, say FormValues1 and FormValues2 (note no spaces) then type this command in Terminal (Applications/Utilities):
cat ~/Desktop/FormValues2 >> ~/Desktop/FormValues1
Then rename FormValues1 back to the original name of Form Values and move it back into the correct folder:
/Users/Library/Safari/Form Values
I expect you'll have duplicate values in that file now and I've no idea how Safari will handle this scenario, maybe it will clean up but so long as you keep a copy of the original Form Values files you can restore the status quo afterwards. Good luck.

Auto fill for passwords in iphone safari

in ff and safai, 1P is very helpful, ur bring up a URL and it shows you your saved passwords to log in.
I cannot find the equivalent for iphone.
Option 1 - it would be fine with me if browser simply saved password for common web sites, like FF can do (not sure if safari does this on mac).
Option 2 - something that worked like 1P on the mac, where u open safari, type in a url (or via bookmark or icon) and u have the option of clicking on the logon.
There is a 1P for Iphone, but it works nothing like on the Mac or as described above.
Is there any such animal?
thanks

Safari password auto fill security concern

Just discovered what I consider to be a big security concern with iCloud Keychain. If you go into Settings, then Safari and your iCloud Keychain is under stored passwords and auto fill, the passwords are stored in plain text with no asterisk or anything. This means that all someone needs is your 4digit unlock code and they are then able to view all your stored passwords in Safari. They should at least require your iCloud Keychain password to view these, or just asterisk them out. If someone saw you enter your four digit unlock code, and then put your phone down, they could get this information without you even knowing it. This is not safe.

The purpose of that section is so that you can see your passwords, there wouldn't be much point in replacing them with asterisks. They are password protected, just don't give others your password.

Safari auto-fill problem

Hi all.. Since the second last firmware update of my Touch 2nd gen, Safari normally auto-fills website's login forms (thus settings should be okay) except for.. wlan login forms! Therefore, every time I have to manually write down username and password in order to gain network access.. I don't know whether it is a known issue or even a strange "wanted" feature..in any case, there's a way to overcome this annoying problem? Thank you in advance.

I have asked a similar question several times before, and I have the answers varied from the typical I do not have that problem to its a security feature incorporated in Safari.
I tend to think it is a new feature added ito safari n the last several months (via an update).
The bottom line is I am NO longer able to stay logged into various websites if I quit safari, even though the websites have the feature available that should allow a user to stay logged in for 2 weeks.
The only way I can now stay logged in for an extended period of time is to NEVER quit Safari.
That is not an option for me.

Safari generated website password lost...

Hello all...
ISSUE: I created a user profile for a forum. Safari suggested a password, so I selected to use it. Now I am trying to sign in with the info, but Safari will not auto-fill the password, and the site is not found in the keychain access.
Where can I retrieve the auto generated password? Again, a search for the site in keychain access produces no results.
I saw similar Q's, but none of them answered.

I too would love to know how to control this. I used FB with safari then I found it was automatically logging me into other sites when FB login was an option - however, I did NOT want to logged into those other sites!

How to Transfer Safari Auto-Fill Passwords to Chrome

How do you transfer all of your saved auto-fill passwords from Safari into Chrome?
It won't let me do it in Preferences/Personal Stuff/Browsing Data
The box "saved passwords" is grayed out and it won't let me select it!
Thanks in advance for any help!
HARDWARE/SOFTWARE I AM RUNNING:
2.66 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo
8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
OS 10.6.7

The box "saved passwords" is grayed out and it won't let me select it!
Are you referring to: Manage Saved Passwords ??
Your passwords are stored in Keychain Access /Applications/Utilities
Select Options (Preferences on Mac and Linux; Settings on Chrome OS).
Click the Personal Stuff tab.
Adjust your password settings in the "Passwords" section:
Select "Offer to save passwords" if you want Google Chrome to prompt you to save your password every time you sign in to a new website.
Otherwise, select "Never save passwords" if you don't want Google Chrome to ever save your passwords.

Auto-fill/password data deleted following Safari crash

So, I've been having a seriously large amount of problems with Safari crashing over the past few months. Usually it just shows the spinning wheel of death, sometimes it just automatically reloads every page/tab I have open (if anyone can suggest a fix for that it would be great).
However, this time it crashed and it appears to have completely wiped out all of my auto-fill/password data that I had saved. As this is a personal computer and nobody else uses it, I had a lot of passwords saved into it (most of them for low security risk sites). As everybody knows, a user often has hundreds of usernames/paswords for a huge number of websites. I can't remember them!
I'm concluding that as they've all been deleted, I'm going to have to go through the arduous process of clicking the 'forgotten username/password' to retrieve these details; however, now whenever I try to save back in the auto-fill, it's not really working too well and just isn't saving it, despite me choosing for auto-fill to be operational on the website.
Any help would be massively appreciated to sort this, as having to keep entering my usernames/passwords - urgh, let's just say this is the biggest first world problem since before bread was sliced!!
Safari version 5.1.10
Mac OS X Version 10.6.8

Passwords are stored in Keychain Access located in Applications > Utlities
Launch Keychain Access then select Passwords on the left.
Type in the name of a website you've visited that autofilled the password.
Then double click the website name the select the Attributes tab then click: Show password
You may be prompted for your admin password to proceed.
If you want a website to re remember the password, right or control click the website name in Keychain Access the click Delete.
The next time you login to that site and enter your password you should be prompted to save that data to a new keychain.

Firefox fills in forms at a certain website (disabled auto-fill)

After I had some problems with it (+ security issue) I decided to delete all passwords from my firefox.
When I had done this most of the annoying auto-fill-in stuff was solved, however at one website (which I visit quite regularly) it seems to keep filling in one particular username and a password wherever there's a field for either one. Even if it's just a normal field with a title it'll fill in that username.
How can I get rid of this?

Use these steps to remove saved (form) data from a drop-down list:
#click the (empty) input field on the web page to open the drop-down list
#highlight an entry in the drop-down list
#press the Delete key (on Mac: Shift+Delete) to remove it.

IOS8 / Safari not auto filling alternate account info and password

Hello,
since upgrading to iOS8 on my iPad4, Safari no longer auto fills alternate account / password info on same website. 'Settings' shows that I have multiple login/pass infos available for the same site.
PReviously, I could initiate the first couple letters of the account name, and the option to have Safari auto populate the rest of the info would be available.

I should also mention I am not in private mode.

HP ProtectTools password auto fill in does not work with Firefox 4

My HP Compaq 6715b has a credential manager called ProtectTools that stores user name and password for favorite websites and auto fills the information when the website is opened up. This worked fine with Firefox 3.x.x but since I upgraded to Firefox 4 it is no longer "syncing". I have checked the program and I am "logged in" which is what is necessary to activate this program. I have tried logging off and then back on without any results. I have tried to go back to the 3.x.x version of Firefox and cannot do that either. Technical support for my computer no longer is available from HP due to it's age (2007). Does anyone know if Firefox 4 and ProtecTools is compatible? What do I need to do to get these two "communicating" again?

I think I solved the problem. I have CCleaner software and had the clean cookies checked. After unchecking the box and restarting, the auto login works fine. So if anyone has a cleaner program or anti-virus program with clean cookies enabled, auto login for google or yahoo will not work.

Save the password but disable the auto fill

Hi All,
I have a typical requirement in ff 3.5.15, where i want to save the password for any login. but i do not want to use the auto fill for filling the password automatically.
In short , i want to use the password save option but disable autofill . Is it posible.
Thanks in advance

See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Password_only_filled_after_entering_user_name
Set the pref signon.autofillForms to false on the about:config page.
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/signon.autofillForms
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.

Upgraded to 8.3, now auto fill is not working. I have checked, rechecked my info, saved passwords, etc. to no avail. Is this bug in 8.3. Never did this until I upgraded.

Upgraded IPad to to 8.3, now auto fill is not working. I have checked, rechecked "my info", "saved passwords", etc. to no avail. Is this bug in 8.3. Never did this until I upgraded. Wife is not happy I upgraded!

Auto fill works for me in iOS 8.3.
Try the standard troubleshooting steps in this order:
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds). No data will be lost.
Restore: Connect your device to iTunes on your computer, backup, and then select Restore to Factory.
See here for more details on restore: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201252
If none of these work your device may have developed a hardware problem. Contact Apple Support: http://www.apple.com/contact/
