Can't see my wifi passwords anymore

Under Snow Leopard, I could go to System Preferences > Network > Advanced > Edit and see all of my saved wifi usernames and passwords. Because it was so easy, we haven't written them down (doh. Lesson learned). Now that I've upgraded to Lion, the "edit" button isn't there. I've searched for this issue and people allude to using Keychain Access to see the passwords, but I don't see any network passwords in Keychain Access.
Can someone let me know how I can see/recover my existing stored wifi passwords under Lion? Thanks!
HB

With login selected in the left column under Keychains and passwords selected under Category I can see this:
Tick Show password, and supply master reveals the network password.

How can I see saved wifi passwords iPhone iOS5?

On the iPhone, is there a way to view stored wireless passwords?
A friend of mine forgets his wifi password and it would be far easier for me to look it up than for him to try and find the right menu in the router!
When I was there last I looked it up for him and added it to my phone to test it.

Drat!
I was hoping there was a secret menu for "Keychain access".
How about a 3rd party app?
Or maybe a way to dig it out of the backup file(s) on my MAC?

TS1398 iPhone can not see any wifi signals anymore.

Used to work fine, have updated, reset, rebooted etc but still nothing. Other iPhones in the house all still OK. HAve tried several locations that it used to connect to wifi. Have worked through all the help pages and tried all those ideas. Process of elimination confirms the issue is with this 4S handset. Anyone got any other suggestions?

My phone can see networks with 1 bar,(or 2 when 5 feet from my router), but i am unable to connect. After trying every concievable solution, including several restores both via the menu and itunes, i gave up and called Apple. The rep agreed that it most certainly must be a hardware problem and assured me that as soon as they recieved it back in post i would be sent a "replacement" phone. She actually couldn't apologise enough for the inconvenience of being without a phone for 5 DAYS, as this is how long the turnaround would be, i was assured. This suggests to me that indeed there is a bad problem with the built in wi-fi as the same or very similar problems are all over the forums. I of course don't expect to actually get a phone back for 10-12 days but miracles may happen...>>>>

It is quite obvious that you people at apple keep your eye on the forums, why is it your company never listens to it's customers in them. Better support for your products which cost us plenty, would be a good place to start. Having 2 dead ipods, 3 working ones and a iphone from apple, bears testimony that i am a loyal customer. How about returning the loyalty by putting out products that work first time - every time...

Airport Extreme green light but can't see the wifi network

Hello, coming back from the holidays I can't see my Wifi network anymore (From PS3, Phone, Computers ..etc.). My airport has a greenlight and the internet is working fine if my computer is connected with an Ethernet cable. I re-did the configuration many times and I did a hard reset of both my modem and the airport. It is not setted to a hidden connection. All the settings are basic like before. The only difference is that I did the update to 7.6.4.

I think you were right, my airport was broken and I noticed that at the end of the configuration process where there's a green checkmark it was written in the bottom that a wifi device wasn't working properly. Nothing could be done to make it work though.
I bought a new Airport Express now but I still have a major problem. I was able to configure it through wifi with my iMac without any problem and now it is connected to the internet via wifi perfectly but i STILL can't see the network with either my Android phone or my PS3 console !?
- Brand new airport express
- configured to "create a wifi network" with a WPA2 password using the simple steps of the airport utility
- Airport Utility 5.6.1
I did reset the airport express a few times with the utility and by removing the power cord. I also did reset my iMac and I can still connect to the wifi just fine with it.

HT201415 i can't find my wifi password for iphone 4s

i can't find my wifi password for my iphoine 4s. is there a way to reset it.

Many internet providers put the WiFi password on a stick on the bottom of the router they send you, so start by looking there. If you changed the password from what it was originally or didn't get the router from your provider, you'll need to determine the make and model of the router and see if you can find the manufacturer's instructions for resetting the password. You might also contact your internet service provider for assistance.

How can I recover my wifi password?

How can I recover my wifi password? My mac is still connected, but the vodafone store deleted my settings on my ipad!! I've tried keychain access and network preferences, but it doesn't show the password, just asks for the password. Is there another way?

Use a browser to log into your router. Navigate to the wifi settings and the passphrase will be there. The address of your router is manufacturer dependent but will be something like http://192.168.1.1 or http://192.168.0.1.
If you can't log into your router for some reason you can reset it to factory defaults. Look in your router manual for instructions. Once reset to factory defaults the wifi pass phrase will be the one provided as default for your router model. Look in your router manual. You will then need to create a new pass phrase in your router wifi settings and then change the passphrase used in your wifi devices to match your newly created passphrase.

I have an Itel based iMac on which I created a Wifi network using Airport. My iPhone5 uses the Wifi on my iMac and still works.My problem is that I can't remember the Wifi password and it is not in my Keychain.

I have an Itel based iMac on which I created a Wifi network using Airport. My iPhone5 uses the Wifi on my iMac and still works.My problem is that I can't remember the Wifi password and it is not in my Keychain. What can I do so that I can connect other devices to my Wifi?

Read the router's user manual on how to change your password.
If you are going to select another password, make sure it's one that you will NEVER forget AND no one else can figure it out. Print it out & keep in a safe place. A place that ONLY you know about AND never forget.

My iphone can't see any wifi networks

my iphone can't see any wifi networks ... i tried to reset network setting and reset all setting and update the ios system but no way

I, too, fear it might be a hardware problem . I removed all security from my router but still no networks appear in the list nor can I connect directly by typing in the SSID. Tried two routers: Apple Airport Extreme and a Linksys something-er-other provided by Bell.
I will give HP a call tomorrow and see if they can sort this out.
Thank you for your help/advice!
Edit: almost certain it's a hardware problem: I clicked on the Help button while on that "Scanning for networks" dialog during initial setup and as one of the "helpful" suggestions, it said my Mac address was 00:00:00:etc.

[SOLVED] Can't see my windows network anymore

I just updated my Arch 64 machine today (hadn't updated since last friday). I saw that the new kernel 2.6.38 was in core now etc. The update went fine but now in Dolphin I can't see my windows shares anymore. I complains about the firewall, so I turned it off but still it does see anything. Anybody else having issues with smb since the last few days of updates?

my ipad can not see my wifi printer ????????

Is it an AirPrint enabled printer ? The supported models are listed on this page, and there is also a bit of troubleshooting at the bottom : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356
If it's not an AirPrint model, then some manufacturers have their own apps in the iTunes app store, and there are also third-party apps such as Print Central For iPad and Print n Share which might work with it.

This lloks like your preferences file might have become corrupted.
you probably have a problem with corrupted user preferences.
Remove the Preferences: Remove the Aperture's user preferences from the User Library as described here:
Aperture 3: Troubleshooting Basics http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3805
Note:Your User Library is hidden by default in 10.7.x or later - to open it in a Finder window use the "Go" menu from the Finder's main menu bar.
Quit Aperture, if it is running. Log off and on again.
Open the user library by using the Finder's "Go > Go to Folder" menu and hold down the options-key, until "Library" appears in the drop down menu. Select it.
In the widow that will open, scroll down to "Preferences"
From the "Preferences" folder remove "com.apple.Aperture.plist".
Then try to launch Aperture again.
But deleting the "Preferences" file will cause Aperture to forget the preferences settings. Be prepared to have to reset all options you set using the Aperture Preferences panel.
