I suggest that you run software update, after which you should have Safari 6.0.5 - then check Safari - Preferences - Privacy & see that 'Block cookies' is not set to Always.
Failing that - switch Safari extensions Off via Safari - Preferences - Extensions & test again

Mail doesn't save password for iCloud IMAP account (works fine with other email providers)

Mavericks Mail doesn't save the password for my iCloud IMAP account no matter how many times I enter it into Preferences or enter it when prompted. Doesn't seem to be saving in Keychain or wherever it should be saved. Passwords for all other email providers that I use are saved. Any suggestions on how to fix this? Thanks!!!!!

Great, thanks A LOT! Best answer on that issue and so simple!!!! Now it works perfectly fine

How can I save passwords for URL's

How can I save passwords for URL's? I just installed 10.6.7 Snow Leopard. I also had to format my HD drive and reinstall my software.

Hi,
From the Safari menu bar click Safari / Preferences then select the Autofill tab. Select the box next to:
User names and passwords.
Navigate to a site you normally log into with the user name and password. Click Yes when prompted. That will save that information to a new keychain for you.
Passwords are actually stored in your Keychain Access application. (Applications/Utilities)

Since I made my Safari update yesterday, safari doesn't open my chosen webpage anymore at the start... Frustrating ! What can I do to have my opening page again ?

Go to Preferences-> general and change 3 settings there:
1. "Safari opens with" = "A new window:
2. "New windows open with" = "Homepage"
3. "Homepage" = <your chosen webpage>

This isn't an issue. Notice the screen prior to the one that shows usage has an iCloud section and a Manage Storage button. For this button to activate ios needs to download a few kb from icloud. Switching back to this screen forces ios to download those few kb.

How do I save passwords for my apps

How can I save passwords for apps

You either write them down somewhere or you check the "remember me" (or something similar) button while in the app. There is no universal way to save them. It's up to the writer of the app whether or not to save credentials.

Xperia Z1, latest Firefox (from play market). ANY site (even gmail) doesn't accept password for log-in (always wrong) on portrait keypad mode.

Xperia Z1, latest Firefox (from play market). ANY site (even gmail) doesn't accept password for log-in (always wrong) on portrait keypad mode. When i switch to landscape mode everything is ok.
At this time Google Chrome doesn't have any problems, password is accepted in portrait mode of keyboard.

Even FF doesn't log in to that site in portrait mode, except Chrome browser.

Apps like facebook and twitter cannot be displayed correctly

After downloading IOS 7.0.6 apps like facebook and twitter are shown minimized and cannot be used, please help.

Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)

Safari doesn't save my Vodafone username and password

Hello,
In preparation for iCloud Keychain, I am moving all of my logins out of RoboForm and into Safari.
However, Safari doesn't offer to save my username and password for Vodafone.co.uk, which is one of my most frequently visited sites.
I was having the same problem with my PayPal account, but the Lap Cats AutoComplete extension fixed it. Still no luck with Vodafone, though.
The Vodafone login page is here:
https://www.vodafone.co.uk/myvodafone/faces/oracle/webcenter/portalapp/pagehiera rchy/Page1.jspx#%40%3F_adf.ctrl-state%3Dma4he7lca_9.
I do have the preferences set to Autofill usernames and passwords - it does work for most sites - Amazon, Play.com etc.
I have all software updates from Apple so Safari 6.0.5, on Mountain Lion.
Any help would be very much appreciated.

However, Safari doesn't offer to save my username and password for Vodafone.co.uk, which is one of my most frequently visited sites.
First on Safari, go to Safari > Preferences > Passwords
Delete the vodafone website url if you see it there. Don't worry if it's not in the list.
Open Keychain Access located in HD > Applications > Utilties
Select Passwords on the left. Then type vodafone in the search field top right corner of the window.
Delete saved vodafone keychains by control clicking the keychain then click Delete.
Back to Safari. Navigate to the vodafone website. Enter your user name and password as usual. Click Yes when prompted to save your password to a new keychain.
Do the same for any other sites that won't save passwords.

Safari is not storing passwords for certain webpages

Hi,
I am wondering why Safari won't store the login/passw for certain webpages in my keychain. It is not asking if I want to save it.
Even if I make the entry in the keychain all Safari does is to ask for the keychain password when I enter the webpage, but won't fill in the login/passw.
Any ideas?
Regards
M.

I have been told that some websites block the password storing function - for example, banks and credit card sites. It is a protection for their customers. At any rate, none of my financial sites allow automatic password fill-in.
Those are the only types of sites where I have had that happen. Is that the type of site you are having trouble with?

How can I get firefox to ask me to save passwords for websites and to turn back on my auto complete for webpages?

Ever since the last update of firefox my autocomplete no longer functions and firefox no longer asks me if I want to save the password for sites I visit.

"Remember passwords for sites" is shaded in the Private Browsing mode and when "Always use Private Browsing mode" is enabled.
