IPHONE 5 WI-FI does not remember password

My iphone 5 does not memorize the Wi-Fi passwords.
I mean those with a popup screen when you connect to a Wifi network, then type in username/password.
I have to do it every time I connect!!!
My iphone4, and iphone3 used to be fine; Safari memorized those passwords and no re-typing was needed.

Had the same problem. I thought I had tried everything and then the answer was so simple (Thanks to a Chris on this forum!).
Went to 'other' in the list of wifi networks and entered the network name (beware of caps), correct security (in my case WEP) and password. Knew immediately it had worked because the 'forget this network' button appeared in the network details, which it hadn't before.
Yippee!

If the iPad has Activation Lock - that is, it's asking for the previous owner's Apple ID and password to activate the device or to turn off Find My iPhone - then you will need that information. There's no way around it If your father can't remember the password, he'll need to recover it.

If he can't do it via that page, then he'll have to call Apple Support and ask to speak with Account Security.
If that's not the "password" you meant, please post back and clarify.

Anyone know why, firefox does not remember password for a site when you remove password from the view password site? I removed a pasword in the view password window and now it not asking me to remember and also it is not remembering the password when I go

Anyone know why, firefox does not remember password for a site when you remove password from the view password site? I removed a password for a site that was not remembering the correct password for the "view password" window and now it does not guess the password and does not remember the password for that site. All other sites are being remembered.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== After I deleted the password from the view password window.

The saved password feature worked well, but the site I had saved the password for required that I change the password. I have found no way to update the password in Firefox. After I deleted the saved password, Firefox did not ask if I wanted the new password saved. When this happened before, I removed and re-installed Firefox, and then it worked. I hope there is another way to update a password.

Since upgrade to iOS4 Safari does not remember passwords

Since I've updated my 3GS to iOS4 via ITunes, Mobile Safari keeps asking to save username and passwords, even if I've visited the site before and said "Yes" to save username and password, at the next visit, Safari doesn't remember and I have to enter the details again.
I've already cleared Cache, History and Cookies, turned off and on the auto-fill option, but the problem persists.
Anyone got an idea ?

Apple seems to have completely missed browser user/password remember feature all over again. This had happened with iPhone 1.1.4 firmware as well. Hope they correct this issue with iOS 4.0.1 update. Apple discussion forum thread specifically mentions users with iPhone 3G and 3GS are facing this issue. Found this on http://iphoneindia.gyanin.com/2010/07/07/ios-4-0-bug-safari-does-not-remember-pa sswords/
Last time a mod called Fix Safari Cookies via Cydia did the trick - Tired of having to enter your username and password everytime you visit your favourite site? With FixSafariCookie not anymore! This package / utility overwrites your cookies and changes the permissions that safari can actually write and save your cookies.

Safari does not remember passwords correctly

Hi all!
I use Safari with several online browser games, where I have to login with user name and password. However, Safari does not complete these forms after loading the page, instead it only completes everything when I have entered the first one or two letters of the user name.
I have read that this might be the case when there are multiple user accounts for one page or domain, but this is the only account for this specific page.
The pages uses some kind of transparent forwarding, so the user name/password information is transmitted to different subdomains, something like a load balancer, I guess (wod1.world-of-dungeons.net, wod2.world-of-dungeons.net,... you get the idea).
Auto-fill is enabled, the passwords are correctly stored in the keychain and everything works as normal once I start typing the user name.
Any ideas on what could cause this?
The page in question is (for example) http://world-of-dungeons.net/
I use Safari 3.1.1 on OSX 10.5.2 on a MacBook, if that helps.
Thanks,
Helge.

Welcome to the Forums!
I don't usually use the AutoFill function, but as I understand it, AutoFill does not automatically populate the form fields when the page loads. You either need to start typing in a field, select Edit menu > AutoFill form (or use the Command-Shift-A keyboard shortcut), or add an AutoFill button to your toolbar (View menu > Customize Toolbar and drag it there) then click it after the page loads.
Hope this helps...

Does not remember password for Virgin Usage when it does for Webmail

In Firefox 2.0.0.20 (the latest version that will work in WinMe), the username and password for Virgin WEBMAIL is prompted, but the identical information for an identical login form for Virgin Broadband USAGE is NOT prompted; and the settings for REMEMBERING the login details are ineffective FOR THIS SITE. I have tracked differences between these sites to differences in 'Page Info' in
Firefox's Tools menu, but I cannot change the Page Info for USAGE to be the same as for WEBMAIL. I have failed to trigger login-details-prompting by 'artificially' adding them to the Stored Passwords list. Can someone help me make Firefox prompt the login details for USAGE as it does for WEBMAIL ?

I see your reply was on August 16, but I was not alerted to it till now, through a 3rd party.
http://mybroadbandusage.virginbroadband.com.au/#usage
http://webmail.virginbroadband.com.au/?_task=mail
The second one is for webmail, and the fields are prefilled - which is how I want the first one to behave.

ITunes 9 does not remember password.

Is anyone else having this problem? Since iTunes 9 it no longer remembers my password. Even if I check the box to remember it I still have to type it in every time I update an app or download something.
Also, while this doesn't really matter right now because I always type in my password, what happened to the one-click purchase options? I would like to disable it due to the new layout of the app store but I can't find it in my account settings in iTunes.

Me too, but it's not everytime. Sometimes it seems to remember it and other times it doesn't. Very frustrating.

Cleared history and now Firefox does not remember passwords

I went to "clear recent history" and chose "everything" on "time range to clear." Now my passwords do not autofill anymore. There are still saved in the "Options" tab.

* Make sure that you not run Firefox in [[Private Browsing]] mode
* You are in Private Browsing mode if you see "Tools > Stop Private Browsing", possibly grayed
* 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 <b>Firefox will: Use custom settings for history</b>
* Uncheck: [ ] "Automatically start Firefox in a private browsing session"

Safari 4.0 on Windows does not remember password when realm changes.

The site I am using requires authentication. Unfortunately authentication only works the second time (using a different realm). In that case Safari seems not to remember the password (and use it in further requests) so every page I visit in that secure site will require authentication from anew.

Yes only certain messages and also from different senders. I cannot see any relation between the messages

Given a computer and previous administrator does not remember password

I was given an HP Pavilion p7-1414 desktop PC running on Windows 8 by an elderly friend of mine. She was set up as the administrator on this PC, however, she has since passed away and no one knows what her admin password was. I have not been able to figure out how to change the administration from her to myself. I am set up as a user on the PC and have a Windows Account. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Hi my2007ponyhorse,
Oh my, I'd have to say it's not an easy problem you're stuck in.
Windows is known to be one tough cookie to crack the admin password.
It's really complicated to get through it. The quickest solution would be to backup all your needed files and
re-install win7 or win8 according to your preference. There's pretty much no easy way to get past the admin lockup.
If you need anything else, please let me know. Hope you get it resolved asap.

Built-in iPhone stocks widget does not "remember" added stock symbols

I add a few (3-4) stock symbols to the built-in iOS stock widget. It shows the info, includes them in the Notification ticker tape, etc. But after a day or less, it resets back to showing AAPL only. Consistent, repeatable problem. Any ideas how to fix this? I know I can always "get another app" but I was hoping somebody knows how to fix this one.
Thank you

How would YOU know that I haven't had this problem before, or that there is "no appreciable level of confidence that this would fix" it??
In fact, I did have this problem in the past, as well as similar problems with other apps and restoring is the best option. If that doesn't fix it, there is hardware problem with your phone or it's been jailbroken. (Your hesitancy to restore is a good indication of that..., or your lack of knowledge about iPhones and the iOS.)
If you haven't already, there is a small chance that resetting the phone (no data loss) might help, at least for a while: Press both the home and power buttons for at least 10 seconds, releasing when the Apple logo appears.

TS1398 iPhone 4 does not connect automatically and does not remember wifi password

After being idle for a while, my iPhone 4 goes off wifi and when I am connecting manully, the phone does not remember the wifi password. I have a iPhone 3 and 5 where this is not a problem. Can this be linkes to the phone company you use? The iPhone 4 has a different phone company than the other phones. Can anyone help please?

Hi Damien,
Thanks for your reply.
I had not created 2 separated wireless network. The airport extreme has had create wireless allowing it to be extended and the airport express has had it to extend since day 1.
The only device that does not connect to the airport express when it is far from the airport extreme here is the iPhone 4. I've tested 2 Windows based computers, 2 Macs, 1 Samsung TV and 1 Android phone and they all are able to connect to the airport express when the signal from the airport extreme is weak (please take a look on the screen shots on the original post).
The screenshots of the 2 devices' wireless set up can be found below:

I have seen other people here on the Apple discussions complaining about the same issue with their iPhone 4 and iPad: would it be a iOs problem?

My iphone 5 does not remember the password of my home network. Well this is ot the case with my ipad. The wifi gets disconnected every 2 minutes. Its not any problem with my wifi router as my ipad and other devices work fine. So how do i fix this problem?

Well my iphone 5 does not remember my home network. This is not a problem with the wifi router as the ipad works absolutely fine. The wifi loses it connection in just 2 minutes. So could you please fix this problem.

Not unless the modem is causing a problem.
What you want to do is get it to work reliably over Ethernet first, then tackle wifi. Power off the modem. On your macbook, delete the Ethernet configuration and the Wifi configuration. Power up the modem, then connect the mac via Ethernet. Create the new Ethernet configuration and see if you can connect.

TS1398 Does not remember my home wifi password

I put in my home wifi password and it does not remember it, if I leave and come back I have to re enter it, I put password in my iPhone and it
T remembers password. Is there any way to save password so I do not have to re enter

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Ever since I upgraded to IOS 7 on my iPad, it does not remember my passwords, even though I check "keep me signed on". Is there a setting somewhere that I am missing? I did not have this issue with the previous OS. Thank you.

Ever since I upgraded to IOS 7 on my iPad2, it does not remember my passwords, even though I check "keep me signed on". Is there a setting somewhere that I am missing? I did not have this issue with the previous OS. Thank you.

Thank you, James, but I do have a WiFi connection on the iPad mini. The Numbers files update on my iPad third generation and iPhone just fine when connected to the same network.
Do you have any other suggestions?
Thank you!
