I need to have my macbook pro repaired how can I hide passwords and banking info?

Create a new admin account named repair and only give them the password for that account. Alternately you could back up or clone your system, erase the hard drive and then reinstall OS X with one admin account that has no personal information.

I can no longer hide passwords under toolbar/options. What to do?

I can no longer hide my passwords - under toolbar/options/security. They continually all show up and I'm afraid someone else may be able to see them as well. The option to hide passwords no longer appears.

Are you using a master password?

How to show/hide passwords in outlook

I can show/hide passwords in yahoo but not in outlook. How do I show in outlook

I'm guessing you can press the little icon to the right of the password field to see the password. I'm using Ubuntu so I don't know what the icon looks like. It should be like a black WiFi signal or something. You should be able to click/hold that to see the password.
Were you able to show that password before or is this the first time you've tried? You can try to clear the cookies for outlook.com to see if that helps but as far as I know, Windows 8 should be able to show/hide the password.

Hide password on command line

Dear everybody,
I would like to find a way to hide password on command line when user type password. There is a way that use another thread to output '\b*'. However, it has some bugs. And I can't use Console class which has a method to hide password. Because my JDK is 1.5 and I can't change it because of some reasons.
Does anybody know a way to hide password on command line?
Thanks very much!

Because my JDK is 1.5 and I can't change it because of some reasons.Look how sweet Console is in 1.6:
import java.io.Console;
public class ConsoleExample {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Console console = System.console();
        char[] password = console.readPassword("Please enter password:");
        //don't do this: passwords shouldn't be stringified
        String s = new String(password);
        console.format("password =[%s]%n", s);
}Find a way to install 1.6! We believe in you!

Encrypt or hide password in sql script from shell

Hello
Have I some possibility to encrypt or hide password in this shell script :
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/sqlplus -S /nolog<<EOF
connect user/passw3@tns
select * from dual;
exit;
EOF
thank You
Brano

Or do not use login userid/pw at all. Instead use client authentication (externally identified account).
CREATE USER ops$me identified externally;
then as me on the host,
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/sqlplus / >> /dev/null <<EOF1
select * from dual;
exit;
EOF1
That way your password never has to be stored or passed. Oracle knows that you have been authenticated by the server.

How to Hide Password in Member List

Hi,
I have this set up:
instead of the password being shown, I have previously just added ******* instead of the dynamic text binding.
But i want to be able to see how many characters long the password is. With thte solution above, all passwords had 8 asterisks. I need to be able to see how many characters the password has, without seeing the actuall characters.
I still need the dynamic text field, but how would I cover this up? (Some sites have the option to hide/reveal the password). I just want it hidden all the time.
Any help would be very much appreciated!

This function will replace your password string with the same amount of '*'
public function ConvertoStar($string)
$len = strlen($string); $star = "";
for ( $s=1; $s <= $len; $s++ ) {
$star .= "*";
return $star;
echo ConvertoStar($yourvalue)
But your better off hashing your passwords though - PHP: Password Hashing - Manual

Hidding Password in JSP page

Hi all,
I m using the password value in the jsp page as ahidden variable which is thereafter used in the java script. but the problem is that while in view mode of the jsp page if u right click and view the source the password is getting displayed. which should not happen actually. can anybody help me regarding how to hide the password from the public view. i m using the following code for getting the password value.
<input type="hidden" name="ftpPwd" value='<%=request.getAttribute("ftpPwd") %>' />
Thanks in Advance
Nandini

Yes, I get that. But that's how it works, you can't change that. The best you can do is work with a hash instead of the plaintext password; but that's besides the point.
What I'm asking is what do you want to achieve? If you explain that then maybe someone can give you a better way to do it.

Hi Mike,
Thanks for your information. From the documentation, password indirection applies to data-sources.xml, ra.xml, rmi.xml, jms.xml. My case is that the password is contained inside a Java program. Would you please provide me an example on how to apply password indirection for EJB client Java program? Much thanks.

Is there a way to hide the password in the forms config file?

Hi,
you cannot. For a future version we are condering password indirection, which is a feature of OC4J. However, until then the option to use is to implement Single Sign-On with Forms as this storeds username and password in OID

[solved] weechat How *Not* To Hide Password in Input Bar.

I am trying to setup weechat with znc. I need to enter the -password option in the input bar. Since it's going to be long as in username/network:password I don't want weechat to hide what I am typing by displaying "*", so I can easily spot and correct typos. There must be an option to stop weechat trying to obscure my password, but I can't find it. Can someone please enlighten me?

I suggest you install the `iset' plugin, as it's very helpful in situations like this. As far as i know, the only setting that covers the `hide the password' issue, is `irc.look.nicks_hide_password' and its default value is `nickserv', so it should hide the password when identifying on nickserv. Still, if you're concerned about typos, you should add the server with a fake password as `aaaaaa' then use iset to change the password, as it is in plain text (or just do `/set irc.server.<your znc server>.password username/network:password').
