Keychain Wifi Login on networks requiring additional info

Is there a way to turn off Keychain wifi login on networks that ask for additional information or user input? For example, the free wifi at a coffee shop requires users to login and then "connect" to the free wifi. The reason for connecting is because the wifi is limited to a certain amount of time allotted by the shop to each user. Since keychain opens up a separate login window and doesn't close until I click "done", I am not able to disconnect from the network to save wifi time for the next trip to the coffee shop.

  • Mavericks - Safari WiFi login window on startup

    When I boot up my MBP, a Safari window with my apartment's WiFi login page opens automatically. It's not a full-blown Safari window, but it seems it's a "feature" for connecting to WiFi networks that require login credentials (similar to some hotels/public networks that require you to pass through a page before you can actually access the Internet). The window has a button in the bottom right corner that says "Cancel" until you log in, at which point it says "Done" and allows you to close the window once the login has occurred.
    Anyways, I am annoyed by the number of times I have to enter in the same info into this window (my network requires it nearly every time I wake my MBP up from sleep; it's a nightmare). If any of you are familiar with this login window, is there a way to set up autofill? I'm not sure where to begin as the window doesn't show a URL or anything so I can't really manually enter it into the autofill settings. Even a setting to disable the window from popping up automatically might be helpful so I could just log in through the browser and more easily setup autofill. If any of you are familiar with this feature, your help would greatly be appreciated.
    BTW, this didn't happen until I upgrade to Mavericks. At first it was handy to make sure I connected to the network first thing when my computer booted up, but now it's popping up constantly and you can't minimize it until you decide either to cancel the network login or fill out the form. I haven't been able to find a setting for it, and it's driving me crazy!

  • Cannot login to network account (leopard client and server)

    Up until now, I have used local accounts on my leopard server. I want to start experimenting with OD prior to implementing. I created a new user account in the /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 domain, and have bound my leopard client to the server using directory utility. On the login screen, "Network Accounts Available" has a green button to the left of it. When I try and login to the server account, the login window just shakes. At first, I could enter the password and then it would prompt me for a new password. Trying to enter a new password would not allow me to login. I went back to server admin and disabled the "require new password" setting, (as well as the other good security policies)...
    I have also reset the password in WGM, and made sure to disable all the security stuff there too...
    Lastly, I have deleted the server in directory utility, rebooted, then added it back in, and rebooted again...
    I still cannot login to the server account, the login screen just shakes
    Does anyone have an idea of what settings and or logs I can check to try and narrow down what is going on?
    Thanks in advance....

    to close out the thread, I have working dns on my network, but I did not have dns enabled on my server. I enabled the dns service and entered just the info for my server, then assigned my server and client to use the server's ip addy as the primary dns server. Next, I created the home directory.
    Once both steps were done, I was able to log in from my client to my server based account...
    FYI-I found a document on afp548.com called "leopard server: advanced setup, rsync backup and automated reporting" that walks you right thru the process...Here is the link, it's a very useful doc....

    Hi ronda
    I am not sure what you mean by "automatically". It will find your network but you will need to enter your password, assuming you have your WiFI protected.

  • This additional info printing on the preprinted stationary on One printer &

    Hi,
    I am using smartform to print info on the preprinted stationary.
    The info to be printed is coming fine, But it is printing additional info like Job Name and User name (Login name) on the top left hand side of the pre-printed stationary when we use "HP Jetdirect print server".
    The same does not happen when i choose Epson printer as the Front end printer.
    To check if this has got some thing to do with the printer settings, When i print a Word Document to the same printer "HP Jetdirect print server". It does not print the additional info ( job name , user name ).
    So please let me know what could be the reason for this additional info printing on the preprinted stationary on One printer & Not on other printer.
    Regards,
    Siva

    Have your Basis look into the Printer initialization code in the transaction SPAD. This code is linked to the output device and paper format type, so it is possible that the same printer works differently with different paper media.
    Also have them check if there is a cover page. Although it would print as a separate page, I believe...
    If you don't want to wait for Basis guys, see here how to get to the printer initialization code (you'll need access to SPAD though):

  • When trying to use my banking apps I get the error "Network Required  This application requires an active Internet Connection.  Please try again"

    When trying to use my banking apps I get the error "Network Required  This application requires an active Internet Connection.  Please try again".  This happens with two different apps from two different banks.  One of them works occasionally and have not figured out why.  I have cell signal and I am on a strong WiFi network.  Same thing happens when I turn off the WiFi too.    I have tried uninstalling and re-installing the app with no improvement.   I can't seem to find any setting that would cause this.   Does anyone have any suggestions?  

    I can access the internet just fine in the browser and i can use any other app i have.

  • My Ipad connects with my hotel wifi, but does not indicate that it is a secure wifi, even though it requires a password to access - no lock symbol, hence no password request, hence no internet access - help.

    My IPad connects with my hotel wifi, but does not indicate that it is a secure wifi, even though it requires a password to access - no lock symbol appears against the wifi network, hence no password request, hence no internet access - help. My collegue who also has an Ipad can access the same wifi with ease, so it must be something to do with the settings on my machine, although checking the two machines, there appears to be no difference in the settings.

    My experience with hotel wifi is that it's an open, and unsecured, connection, but unless you agree to their terms on a launch page, you can't go any further or connect. Sometimes I need to force safari to come up and even make it go to a page, to trigger the auto load of the 'agree to our terms' page.
    Unless your machine is work provided so maybe could be blocked from unsecured net access?

  • Wifi Login window isn't popping up anymore after update to 10.9 Mavericks?

    I recently updated my Macbook Pro Retina 15" to 10.9 Mavericks, and since the update, the wifi login window no longer pops up as it did before. I live on a campus residence property with wifi that I have to login with my student ID and password. Before, when I opened my macbook and logged in, the wifi login window would immediately pop up, but now it doesn't pop up at all, and instead I have to manually open Safari and try to access a webpage for it to work. What gives? It's a minor inconvenience I know, but I find it annoying now that even if I only want to use an app like Calendar or iTunes, I have to open safari and click on a link in order to login instead of the window popping up automatically like it did before.
    Was this removed from 10.9 altogether or was there some sort of glitch in the upgrade process?

    I realize now that the app I'm talking about it the Captive Network Assistant. Something has gone wrong with its detection, as it's not popping up at all anymore. From what I've read, I'm not the only one with the issue either, it seems that after every major OS X update since the feature was introduced, it breaks for some users. I just haven't found any solutions. Anyone, please, any ideas at all?

    Hi folks, you might know how to fix this: my wifi shows (no hardware installed) then I went to system preferences and deleted the wifi connection, I went also to system information and I can not see wifi listed on Network, how can I create a new wifi or simply solve this, I have tryied shotdown pressing keys like P and R, option, etc. Please help me .

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • MacBook Air wifi internet shared network not working on tethered android phone GT B5122

    MacBook Air wifi internet shared network not working on tethered android phone GT B5122
    I have created a password protected wifi internet network on my Macbook air. I tethered by Andriod phone onto this network, but the internet connection works intermittently on the phone, and when it stops working the network continues to show as connected to the shared network mostly(other times it keeps renewing the wifi IP address on the Andriod phone).
    Also the network the MBA is connected to, is a hardwired one using a SSH login account in a student accomadations.
    I am not sure, but all the restarting and refreshing of system, phone and wifi sharing and re-enabling wifi is not reparing the internet connecting on the wifi network for the phone
    Really puzzled, if this is one of the Apple, Andriod compatability issues.
    Cheers,
    Vivek

    Hi.
    I'm having trouble with the wireless connection on my new home hub 3. Most devices will connect easily, but there are three devices that have trouble connecting. These are an Android Phone (Samsung Galaxy Mini), an android tablet (Sony Tablet S) and an iPod. All of these devices work perfectly on other network connections, and other devices in the house are quite happy connecting to the network.
    The Androids can see the network, and will try to connect to it, but when they do they just go through a loop of "connecting">>"acquiring IP address">>"disconnected". I have tried resetting the Home Hub with a pin, and that lets the devices connect for about 24 hours, but after that time they stop connecting again.
    I'm really not sure what to do to fix the problem, so I will very much appreciate some help.
    Many Thanks.
    My lads SGMini connects perfectly to our hub3
    Have you installed the BTFon app to these devices?
    If so, you could delete it and then see what hapens.....

    How to get to see the usernames and passwords for wifi logins on iPad. 

    You can't access that on an iPad. The iPad does not have a Keychain Access type app like the Mac has. Maybe an application like iExplorer on your Mac will let you see them, but you can't see them on the iPad itself.
