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.

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.

ITunes does not recognize password on iMac, but I can sign in to post here, sign in on my iPad, and sync my iPad to my iMac

If I want to sign in to this message board, I can do so. I can also sign in on my iPad to download updates, purchase new apps and songs, etc. And I can sync my iPad to iTunes on my iMac.
But when I open iTunes on my iMac, it asks for my password and I can't sign in. What is causing this problem with iTunes on my iMac repeatedly asking for my password when I open iTunes?
This is very frustrating. I am also worried that I won't be able to sync when my new iPad arrives March 16. Help!

The solution (for me at least) is to keep trying the same password in iTunes on my iMac that I know is correct. For me, the fourth try of typing in the exact same password works in iTunes on my iMac. I have repeated this several times, and each time it works.
What is messing people up is that when iTunes does not recognize the correct password, people are attempting other passwords. Those other passwords are all incorrect. The problem, as you stated, is that the password was entered correctly the first time but because of iTunes having issues it does not recognize it.
People, just keep entering the password you know is correct. It will eventually recognize it, or at least this works for me. If this still does not work, reset your password (but then you may still have to enter it repeatedly in iTunes).
Apple needs to fix this.

ITunes does not recognize password after removal of corrupt backup file

I removed a corrupt backup file of my iPhone 4 from iTunes and now it does not recognize my password anymore. The password is correct, as I wrote it down when I set it up and have used it before. Any thoughts? This must be some kind of flaw in iTunes or iOS for iPhone.
iPhone 4, iOS 6.1.3

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried stopping and restarting Apple Mobile Services, Bonjour and iPod services but it had no effect. The problem still remains - everything works for all 3 iPhones immediately after reinstalling iTunes but none of them can connect with any of the USB cables after a reboot. This problem is still present as of upgrading to 10.6.3.25.
BTW, I do have other choices. I can become disenchanted with the product, use it less and less, then eventually migrate over to some competitor's product.
Cheers,
Chris.

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...

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!

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.

ITune does not remember my purchase anymore - all apps now list price as if I never purchase them

During chrismas, I discovered several games I previously bought are now listed with full price, even after I went into the info page of the game. Why is this happening? Now every game I have ever bought are all now listed as full price so there is no way for me to tell which game I have bought and which is not unless I check against my purchase history. Does anyone have this problem?

Yep, the behaviour of the iTunes Store you described has been discovered by others as well, unfortunately.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4634697?tstart=30
There are 2 other threads which implies that Apple have changed it intentionally to show prices again:
one, that from now on you can only download already purchased goods once every 90 days -which really concerns me now
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4279696?tstart=0
the other one that it was done intentionally (maybe because of the new download policy)

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.

All media on iPhone gone and iTunes does not remember my phone

Reposting from the iPhone board:
iTunes thinks my iPhone 4s is a new phone and is asking me to set it up again when in actuality it has been synced with iTunes since the 14th. Moreover, all the music, podcasts, and video have disappeared from the phone. I am running OS X 10.6.8 and iTunes 10.5.
I recently set up a second iTunes library, and switched back to my original using the click+option method.
Other than that, I can't think of anything that has changed.
Has anyone else seen this?
Is there a work around?

UPDATE: So I ended up restoring the phone and starting over as if it were new... by that I mean I did not restore from a saved file.
IT DID IT AGAIN!!! This past friday, I went to sync the phone, and it happened again.
iTunes thinks it is a new phone and wants me to set it up again!!!!
For some reason I have no option to restore from a saved image this time either.
Is this a defective phone?
Are other people running Snow Lepoard having issues?
So I removed and reinstalled the Apple Mobile Device Service and reinstalled iTunes in a rueful atempt to make it better.
I can't have this happen again... I lost a lot of data - not to mention the time it takes to set up all the app's, folders and settings...
Anyone????

Itunes does not remember anything!!!!

Please help
I have had a Iphone 3g since it came out. when i try to sync, itunes never remembers the songs/apps I have! i have never changed file locations
i always have to transfer purchases to get something back.
HELP!

I notice you have a Sony Vaio. Vaio owners worldwide have been having this same problem for about a year,I think...it is some Sony bloatware.
Although this is the first I heard of it on a Windows 7 machine.
Sony was supposed to have fixed it!
Anyway, here is an older thread that tells you what to do

My dad has dementia - does not remember his password. His hard drive has been erased. We need to reload Mountain Lion and can't figure out how to do it.

My dad has dementia - does not remember his password. His hard drive has been erased. We need to reload Mountain Lion and can't figure out how to do it. Internet recovery asks for his Apple ID and password. He has no idea. I have an Apple ID but have never bought anything through the iTunes store so it won't accept my Apple ID. I don't know if his computer is under warranty. He does not remember if he has Applecare. I tried reinstalling Leopard -- the computer originally came with Leopard -- but the computer screen goes grey and a message comes up saying I need to restart. He wants to give this computer to me since it's useless to him. What do I do to get a system on it again?

You will need to reformat the hard drive to go back to Snow Leopard or Leopard.
Does he have a Snow Leopard Disk? He should, as there is no way to go from Leopard to Mountain Lion without it. If you can find the Snow Leopard Disk, I'd at least start with that.
You will need to use Disk Utility in the installer to format the hard drive and get rid of the recovery partition.
Boot from the installer disk by holding down the C key on restart. When it boots, Open Disk Utility (Utilities menu, at least in Snow Leopard).
Select the Hard drive and then click the Partition tab.
Select 1 Partition from the partition menu.
Select Mac OS Extended (Journaled) as the format.
Name the drive (Macintosh HD is the standard).
Click Apply to partition the drive.
When it is done, quit Disk Utility and install the OS.
