Password manager app?

There seem to be dozens of password manager apps for Ipads ... can anyone suggest one or two that are simple, and reliable... and one that would also work with my Macbook Pro laptop.?
Many thanks

+1 for 1Password. Best on the market in my opinion.

Looking for a good Password Manager App for the iPhone

I'm looking for a good and reliable Password Manager App for the iPhone with sync capabilities on macs. I've read several reviews on several different apps on iTunes, and either they don't work properly, or they're a rip off, or they just don't sync or all of the above. Any recommendations?
Thanks in advance.

I've been very happy with 1Password, though I haven't used the iPhone component (not having an iPhone).

Password manager apps?

I hope it's okay to ask this here. If not, I apologize.
I'm looking for a password manager app and am finding so many I can't dig my way through them. I'm hoping someone might have a recommendation. In addition to the usual account name, username and password, I would like an app that has a notes area, since I tend to write info about the account in the memo area of the application I use on my laptop. I worry about hacking, so I would prefer something that does not back up to a space I have no control over. Ideally, the password manager would just back up to my laptop, or better yet, sync with a laptop version so I would not have to maintain 2 password managers.
Does anyone have an absolute favorite password manager app?
Thanks,
Tery

I was looking at that, but it appears they're pretty much forcing everyone to write reviews prematurely.
I don't understand that complaint. In what way is 1Password forcing people to write reviews, and in what way are they premature?
I personally use 1Password, both on Mac and iOS, and have for a couple years now. It is a little overpriced when you consider the cost of getting the app on both platforms, but I'm overall very happy with it. Would I be happier with something else? I don't know, maybe... I haven't done comparisons, because this one did what I needed.

NEW OPERATING SYSTEM - VAULT - PASSWORD MANAGER APP ISSUES

Just updated to the new BB operating system. My BB Vault - Password Manager App will not work not. Says this application uses a runtime that is no longer supported. I really need to access my backup file which is a backup_BB file with a .db extension. If anybody knows how to access this, it would really be appreciated. PLEASE HELP!!!

Same here on my Z30 and this is the response from XLABZ.
"Vault and most of our older apps were build using a technology called Adobe AIR. BlackBerry ceased support for Adobe AIR with their latest OS update and any app that you have on your device which used Adobe AIR (a lot of them on BlackBerry World) would cease to function as a result of this. The only other platform that is supported is Android.
We are now building a native Android version of Vault to counter this issue but that would mean a few things:
1) If you have all your data backed up to DropBox your data would be safe there and you can restore the data from DropBox as soon as we release the Android version on BlackBerry World. However, if you don't have backups then there is no way to get the data back or even back it up now since you can't use the old app anymore to do that.
2) When the update is released, you would have to manually delete the old app and install the new version. Upgrading alone will not work. However, deleting the old app will also delete all files that you had saved locally for the app - but if you have your data backed up already, there is nothing to worry about.
3) We don't have an ETA for the release and it could take close to 3-4 weeks for us to release the Android version in BlackBerry World.
4) If you don't want to wait and if you already have a Android device with Google Play access, the native Android version is already available there and you can buy it from there.
We understand that this is a big inconvenience for you as a user and our sincere apologies for this. However, as developers we don't drive platform decisions for BlackBerry so there was nothing we could do about this."

How can i view more of the info in mobile password manager?

Hi all,
i have the mobile password manager app on my android phone. i have never found out how i can actually get it to function satisfactorily by alllowing me to view entire site addresses, nor user names.
I have tried pressing the top bar in between the headings to see if i can move a heading over to reveal more of a column, but cannot.
It is extremely difficult to use this app, and i usually find it far more difficult than is worth it. I end up actually opening up my computer in order to view my passwords via saved passwords instead!
How i wish to find a way to see what i am looking at! As it is now, i only see a huge list of mysterious first letters of everything.
Thanks for any help!

hello coatli, addons are written by third-party developers - so in chase you'd have any suggestions for improvement please contact its author directly through the support mail address provided at: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/android/addon/mobile-password-manager/
one thing you could try though is to press the menu button and use the "search in site" functionality of firefox for android to navigate to the right site/username...

MSecure Password Manager for WIN 8 Phones not here...

For anyone the presently uses the messes mSecure Password Manager app on a IOS or DROID system, the bad news if I was told by the developers that there is not a version for the WIN 8 phone - yet. They justt finished the version for tablets, and will begin work on the phone version. However, they could not give a release date. So if you are like my you are stuck carrying both your Win 8 phone and iPod if you need access to mSecure entries. :-(

Not sure what you are talking about here but if you are trying to create recovery disks you may be too late after performing the update. If indeed recovery manager is missing, it cannot be download. See this:
http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c03489643
Should you be talking about a hard disk image you should be looking at a program like Macrium Reflect Free and perform the image ideally to an external hard drive.

I have a password manager built into my fingerprint scanner. It worked on the older version of Firefox but it will not on this new version. It will not recognize log in pages and will not load information.

With the old version, all I had to do was go to the log in page to any of my email accounts or membership sites and scan my finger. It would fill in the fields and open my account. I like this new version of Firefox, but if I am not able to use that password manager then I will have to install the older version.

A 2008 black MacBook can run OS X Lion (OS X 10.7). However, if you want to use that Mac for apps that do not work with the new MacBook, I recommend you to leave it with Mac OS X 10.6.8, because OS X Lion removes compatibility with PowerPC apps.
Do not worry about the battery of the new MacBook Pro. You can replace it yourself or take it to an Apple Store or reseller, and the cost is similar. However, it's important to take the Mac to an Apple Store or reseller if your Mac's battery fails while the Mac is in warranty, because you will get the battery replaced for free.

My Password Manager icon has disapeared from my toolbar and no longer works. I have checked all settings with no luck in getting it to reappear.

The password manager has disappeared (icon and all) and no matter what I can't get it back & running. I have checked tools/security and all is set as should be.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Just discovered it this A.M.

I can't get my password manager working. It remembers passwords for websites but when I enter in a new password (because this had to be changed) or when I have a new username + PW that I wish to save, the password manager does not appear.

If you updated your existing account then try logging out of it on the iPhone by tapping on the id in Settings > iTunes & App Stores and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on the iPad.
If you created a new account then you can log out of the old account and in with the new one as above, but any content that you purchased/downloaded via the old account will remain tied to that old account, and only that old account can re-download its content and download updates to its apps.

Thinkvantage Password Manager doesn't work on Windows 10

After installing the latest (4.70 Build 2) Password Manager to Windows 10 (Build 9926) on my Thinkpad T520, it does not work well (I try to use it with Chrome 40.0.2214.111 m, plugin version is 4.60.3).
Specifically:
The app starts at system startup and shows tray icon
I can't open the app by double clicking on it: the splash screen appears but then disappears
I can't open the settings from the right click menu of the tray icon
The chrome plugin doesn't do anything (it is installed, but doesn't pop up when I type a password)
Sometimes when typing a password to a Windows password box, the Password Manager "save password" window pops in after freezing the window for 2-3 seconds.
Notes:
I have used Password Manager with Chrome on Windows 8.1, where it worked
Fingerprint login works well with the Fingerprint Software 6.0.0 Build 8102

Hi, I have an X220 and upgraded to W10. PWM does not work in Edge . . . but I just found under All Apps - Windows Accessories - IE11. PWM continues to work on W10 IE11 which at this point I prefer to Edge for several reasons. I looked up a number or tweaks and tips articles about W10 but did not see any of them mention that IE11 was still available under W10. Regards - K

THKVage Password Manager - Bad Security settings

Hi everyone. Please excuse my English, as it is not my native language.
I'm having trouble with the settings of the ThinkVantage Password Manager (PwdMgr).
Here is my problem:
I am using PwdMgr as a password vault. If, when I first launch it after a boot, it asks me either to swipe my finger or to enter the single sign-on password, it won't ask again while I don't reboot.
For obvious reasons, I would like to have PwdMgr ask for authentication every time I launch it.
How can I do that?
I've been through (I think) every settings available in the ThinkVantage software package, but I couldn't find anything helpful.
Thank you for your help.
Here is some information about my machine:
- Lenovo W510
- Win7 Professional
- ThinkVantage Password Manager 3 v3.20.0311.00
aiba
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi and welcome to the forum,
in case you want to see every time the fingerprint swipe request by opening of the Password manager, then you should do following:
- open Client Security Solution (Start->Programs->ThinkVantage->Client Security Solution)
- in the CSS GUI go to Advanced->Manage Security policies
- now you will see a new window and in this window on the left site on the bottom you should see:
"Open Password Manager"
- select this option and now on the righ site make sure, that you select the "Use a custom security for this user action" and then click the button below it "Edit Custom Policy"
- now you will see another window and make sure, that in the "Protection frequency:" you select "Always"
- confirm all changes and you should be good to go
Unfortunately I cannot tell you the description in Japan language But this should help you out, as I'm also using Client Security Solution with Single-Sign-on and I use it the same way as you want to.
Please note, that I'm using the latest version of all the software.
Pelase let me know, if the above will help you out.
If not, please let me know the version of the apps and drivers, that you are using and also the system.
Cheers

Password Manager - another one

Why does PM not startup for many logins, for example I joined this forum only moments ago and yet when I login PM does not prompt me to remember the login etc. I have had to actually go into PM on occasion and create a login entry but it doesn't seem to kick in. Is this the way the various webpage or apps are built or is PM not as good as its supposed ot be? It doesn't seem to 'manage' very well at all.
And surely, Lenovo would make PM their own site logins etc!

The problems with Firefox and the password manager specifically are a result of Lenovos failure to make a commitment to timely and frequent software updates, which we, as customers, have paid for.
If you check your addons window in Firefox, you'll notice the ThinkVantage password manager add-on is out-dated, and the code has not been updated to work with 3.5xxxx.
Especially frustrating is the fact that the Firefox community has made available to developers, for MONTHS the resources needed to correct this - but they haven't bothered.
47 Percent of users are using firefox, and a growing number of people, almost 10 percent, are using Chrome.
If I had to venture a guess, I would say that we are going to be left in the dark with regards to this for a while...
