Passwords in Safari

Hello all
In error -- I recently requested a site no longer save my log-in information.
Now for the life of me I cannot get my mac to remember / auto-fill in the User Name & Password.
I have tried all steps to correct this in the Keychain Access
Additionally i've even tried to add it manually.
No luck.
I've also tried to run the repair feature with no success.
The site did previously allow me to save my login credentials, however since this little oops, no luck.
Thanks
Warp

From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Passwords
Find the address of the site and delete the entry from the list.

Can't remove saved passwords from Safari

Using 10.10.1, Safari 8.0, upgrade from Snow Leopard.
When I try to Remove one or all passwords in Safari's Passwords prefpane, nothing happens. How do I fix this?
In a possibly related issue, when I try to delete the X509Anchors keychain file in Keychain Access, nothing also happens.

Back up all data before proceeding.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership, permissions, and access controls to the default. If you've intentionally set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it, but you do need to follow the instructions below.
Step 1
If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
sudo find ~ $TMPDIR.. -exec chflags -h nouchg,nouappnd,noschg,nosappnd {} + -exec chown -h $UID {} + -exec chmod +rw {} + -exec chmod -h -N {} + -type d -exec chmod -h +x {} + 2>&-
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command may take several minutes to run, depending on how many files you have. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if you prefer not to take it, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
resetp
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

Need to set a password for safari

I would appreciate any assistance in setting a password with Safari.
thank you

Actually you can set a password, but the way to do it is a bit awkward.
Set up a separate user account and then using parental controls, set limitations for Safari.
We did this for my son(teenager) so he could only be on the internet while we are home.
When he tried to access Safari and a few other applications, it prompts for the Administrator name and password to allow access.
I hope this has helped.

Cannot delete saved passwords in Safari on Yosemite

I am unable to remove any passwords from Safari (from the Passwords tab in Preferences). This is on Yosemite.
I have tried the solution outlined here: Yosemite Safari won't let me delete/change passwords, but it appears to make no difference.
Does anyone have any other suggestions?

Might be easier to find the passwords stored in Keychain Access located in /Applications/Utilities
Launch Keychain Access then select passwords on the left
Type in the name of a website you need the password for in the search field top right corner of that window.
Then right or control click that keychain then select the Attributes tab.
Click: Show password
(You may be prompted for your admin password)

Can't delete my saved passwords from Safari 5.1 on Snow Leopard 10.6.8

When the bugs in 1Password initially disabled that application on Safari 5.1 I started saving manually entered passwords on Safari while 1Password was being fixed. Now that 1Password is working I want to remove the saved passwords on Safari as a secirity precaution. But they won't delete; not individually, not as a group. When I click Remove All the passwords all turn blue as if about to be deleted en mass but don't disappear. Trying it by highlighting one and clicking Remove doesn;t work either. Any suggestions?

You are much better off using the Mac OS X app Keychain Access which is pre installed on your Mac instead of a third party password manager.
This link shows the results of a Safari / 1Password forum search which reveals all the problems 1Password causes for Safari.

Your passwords are not stored in Safari per se, they are stored in Keychain Access. /Applicatiions/Utilities. Trying to use both is causing a conflict.

Checking the basics: For web forms, you must tap in the form field to bring up the keyboard.
Can you share a screenshot of the issue? Press Power and Home buttons at the same time to take the screenshot. It will appear in your photo album.

Saving passwords in safari

I did a search but could not get a clear answer. Can you save passwords for web sites in iphone Safari? the fact that u cant see the capital and lower case is a pain when having to retype web passwords all the time, is there a way to save the password and not have to retype all the time?

I hate to say it, but the blackberry and other portable operating systems have a very secure way of doing so. I guess once the SDK is out for a while iPhone apps doing the same thing will pop up all over the place.
As stated previous you do not want to store the passwords in safari unless some type of master password is used. Even then it just takes one malicious person to release the wrong code and it is crackable by anyone who can point and click.
There are online places to store your passphrases and such. I would not advise using these and even if so one cannot copy and paste from the iPhone anyway.

In Password Preferences, how do I amend a password when Safari hasn't picked up the fact that I have changed it? Martin Shelton

In Password Preferences, how do I amend a password when Safari has not detected that I have changed it?

Open Keychain Access located in HD > Applications > Utilities
Select Passwords on the left.
Type in the website name top right corner of that window.
Control click the website keychain then click Delete.
Back to Safari > Preferences > Passwords
Delete that website.
Navigate to the same site on Safari. Enter your user name and new password.
Click Yes when prompted to save that data to a new keychain. That information should now be updated in Safari > Preferences > Passwords.

Can I disable WiFi or password protect Safari on my teenagers iPhone?

My 14 year old daughter has discovered MySpace! Not allowed in our home. We password protected our home iMac and had AT&T disable the EDGE data feature on her iPhone but she's using WiFi (on the iPhone, at home) to get to get around our efforts.
So my question is is there a way to password protect Safari on the iPhone? Just turning off the WiFi won't work because she knows how to turn it back on.

Do you not want her to have access to just MySpace, or the internet in general? If it is the Internet, you could block the iPhones MAC on the router. However, I question why you got her the iPhone in the first place. MySpace is a bit iffy, Facebook, less, but still iffy. I am 18 myself, so I know a bit how it is, having grown up in the time MySpace has grown in popularity. I really would hate to give out parenting advice as I am far from being one. Take it as more of advice from somebody who finally appreciates the restrictions my parents placed on me when I was that age.
While blocking is good, it is also very important to teach them safety. Like many people have said, kids are devious, they will find a way. If her friends are on MySpace, she will find a way. Trust me, schools blocking it doesn't even help is stopping it. Teach online safety. One thing I have heard is allowing them to be on MySpace, but making them ad YOU as a friend allowing you to somewhat monitor who they friend and such. Someone also mentioned that fact that Version 2.0 is supposed to have Parental Controls. I would assume that would allow the things you have described. We can only hope they port from Leopard and allow times and such to be added.
Quick question, do YOU have an iPhone?
