Safari is not suggesting IDs and passwords

Safari is not remembering IDs and passwords for websites that it used to remember. I'm using Safari 7.0 with Mavericks 10.9.
It's not consistent - it remembers some and not others.
Any thoughts?

I have checked this. The ID and password were there, but not functioning. I have deleted them. When I enter them now, Safari doesn't ask if I want to remember them.

  • My Firefox 9.2.1 will not save log-on IDs and passwords

    My wife and I have five Yahoo mail accounts between us and we only use the Firefox browser. We used to get on log-om IDs and passwords saved thru Firefox and we didn't have to re-enter our ID info. Now, every time we sign-out of Firefox, we have to re-enter the ID and password each time. Is this a Yahoo Mail or Firefox issue?
    Thanks
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == A couple of Firefox updates ago

    * Make sure that you not run Firefox in [[Private Browsing]] mode
    * In Private Browsing mode some menu items are disabled (grayed) and features like visited links are disabled and not showing
    * You are in Private Browsing mode if you see "Tools > Stop Private Browsing", possibly grayed
    See [[Private Browsing]] and http://kb.mozillazine.org/Issues_related_to_Private_Browsing
    Do you mean names and passwords in the Password Manager or do you mean that you are no longer logged on to (remembered by) websites after closing and restarting Firefox?
    If the latter happens then you have a problem with cookies that are not kept or the file that stores the cookies is corrupted.

  • Cookies lost in Safari (IDs and Passwords)

    Since the latest update (7.1), as soon as I navigate away from a page in Safari, I lose my ID and password and have to sign in again.  That has never been the case in four years of having an iPhone.

    I have checked this. The ID and password were there, but not functioning. I have deleted them. When I enter them now, Safari doesn't ask if I want to remember them.

  • Why in MPE 2, some users when trying to join an audio conf., they are asked for their IDs and passwords while some are not?

    A meeting is established, and when ionternal users use their IP phone to attend the audio conference call, some are asked for their IDs and passwords and some are asked to enter the meeting ID directly.
    Why is it like that? We need all the users to be able to enter the meeting ID directly without needing to verify themselves, thanks.

    Agree with hirantha.
    Can you call from internal desktop client to external desktop client?
    Please check that first.
    If not, check the required port requirement for Lync Edge Server:

  • Help with start up. new iMac 27" with Marericks installed has been giving me trouble with IDs and passwords.  More than one account downloaded from older Laptop.  Now the computer has the turning wheel in from of gray screen and won't go any further when

    I recently started using my desktop iMac 27" and have been having problems since installing Mavericks, not saying that Mavericks is the problem per se.  I think I have too many accounts with too many names, with too many Apple IDs and too many passwords, email passwords and Apple ID passwords, and keychain passwords, etc.  Can't keep them straight even though I write everything down.  The screen has been making me log in and log out with Account name and passwords after everything I've been doing, also confused about Users and Groups and how to sync everything. I finally just "shut down" everything and the screen was black.  When I turned the computer on again, the circular gear in the middle just kept turning but nothing happened after that.  Then I held the on button in the back until the screen went black again. 
    What should I do?  Is there a way to combine all my accounts into one account with one Apple ID?  I should say that I also have trying to use iCloud and it has different IDs and passwords. Also when I try to log in with one account name, I can't enter anything I write,and when I type on the keyboard, nothing appears on the screen, although I can receive emails, I can't send them. 
    In another account, what I type does appear on the screen, but I think it's an earlier account and doesn't translate aver to the other account. ALTHOUGH i set up iCloud accounts, they don't appear any more.
    Very confused.  Any Ideas about how I can get the computer to start up again and show a new screen?
    Thanks to anyone who has workable suggestions.

    If you really believe that your system has been compromised, here's what you do:
    Disconnect your Mac from your cable modem;
    Back up any documents on your system that are important to you;
    Boot your Mac from the system installation disks that came with it (insert the disk, restart your Mac, and hold down the "c" key until you get the "spinning gear" icon);
    Choose a language and click the arrow button to continue;
    From the Utilities menu, choose Disk Utility;
    In Disk Utility, select your computer's hard drive;
    Click the "Erase" tab;
    Click the "Security Options" button and select to have it overwrite all the data on the hard drive;
    Click the "Erase" button and allow it to process;
    Once the "erase process has completed (it will take a while), reinstall Mac OS X.
    Or, if this is too much for you to accomplish on your own, take your system to an Apple Store and have them help you perform these steps. If your system was indeed compromised, this will remove any such hack. You can then set up a new user account for the computer, reinstall your applications (reinstall only from original disks or downloads from the company making the software) and documents, and reconnect to the Internet.
    Note that when you reconnect to the cable modem, you may still get an IP address starting with 198. This is normal with some cable modems and probably not a cause for concern. It will not be an indication that your system is still compromised; that will not be possible if you perform all the above steps.
    Regards.

  • After mistakenly clicking a link, my safari does not open automatically and unexpected webs open up.

    I am using MacBook Air with Yosemite OS. After mistakenly clicking a link, my safari does not open automatically and unexpected webs open up. Could you please give me suggestions on how to fix this problem? Thank you

    That's a bit vague, but you may have installed the "VSearch" trojan. Remove it as follows.
    Malware is always changing to get around the defenses against it. These instructions are valid as of now, as far as I know. They won't necessarily be valid in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for more recent discussions or start a new one.
    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Step 1
    From the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including any that have the word "Spigot," "Trovi," or "Conduit" in the description. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
    Reset the home page and default search engine in all the browsers, if it was changed.
    Step 2
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/LaunchAgents/com.vsearch.agent.plist
    Right-click or control-click the line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "com.vsearch.agent.plist" selected. Drag the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
    Repeat with each of these lines:
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.daemon.plist
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.helper.plist
    Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Then delete the following items in the same way:
    /Library/Application Support/VSearch
    /System/Library/Frameworks/VSearch.framework
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ConduitNPAPIPlugin.plugin
    Some of these items may be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file can't be found. Skip that item and go on to the next one.
    The problem may have started when you downloaded and ran an application called "MPlayerX." That's the name of a legitimate free movie player, but the name is also used fraudulently to distribute VSearch. If there is an item with that name in the Applications folder, delete it, and if you wish, replace it with the genuine article from mplayerx.org.
    This trojan is often found on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content such as movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
    In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere  should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
    Then, still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
              Install system data files and security updates
    if it's not already checked.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • HT204053 Using multi-user IDS and passwords to access the apps website is turning me into an Apple hater, frankly. Am I alone in the crowd of users?

    Ihave abouy 4-5 different user IDS and passwords that I have to juggle to get access to the Apps store. Almost every time I try to get an update, etc., I have to go through the routine of either changing both user ID and password, or just the password. I am a long-time Apple customer but have drifted as far as possible from using Apple updates and purchases. It's just not worth the time, exasperation and energy involved. I can understand that Apple doesn't want to have varied IDs wrapped into a single ID, but it would be helpful if Apple took the time to delete all but one user ID, upon the request of an Apple customer, instead of spending so much time issuing yet another iPad and iPhone. At least, have mercy on some of Apple customers who are still buying snd using laptops and desk tops. HELP!!!

    I'm not sure how you came to have so many Apple IDs, but I'd suggest that you simplify things.
    I just checked the "Apple ID Support" page:
    http://www.apple.com/support/appleid/
    as I imagine you have, too, and I find no instructions for closing or deleting an Apple ID, but you could simplify things quite a bit by using only one Apple ID on all of your devices.
    It will take a bit of time, but I think you'll find that it's worth it.
    If I were you, I would just delete all purchased apps (if you've purchased music, that's a whole different issue - but you could probably simplify your music purchases, too) from all devices accept one - your most "important" device -  and log out from all other devices. Then log in from those other devices using your preferred Apple ID, and reinstall the apps and other stuff.
    It's going to be tedious, and it'll take some time, but I think you'll have a much better experience over the long term.
    For one thing, you'd always be notified automatically to update/upgrade your stuff, and your log-ins to do so would be much easier.
    I know it's not good news, but I hope it helps.

  • How can I get Safari to remember my ID and password for a site?

    How can I get Safari to remember my ID and password for a site?
    Specifically, I would like it to remember my 14 digit library account on:  http://polaris.plano.gov/Polaris/logon.aspx
    Firefox on my old PC was able to do this no problem.  I have recently switched over to Apple.  Thanks for your help!
    FYI, I am on a new Mac Mini with OS X 10.8.3 and Safari 6.0.4.

    Some websites request the web browser to NOT autofill the username, password.  It is possible the library site is doing that. Your previous firefox on the PC may have been sufficiently old to not be able to handle such a request.  There are password managers you can get to over-ride such things (search Safari extensions).

  • Firefox is blocking my ProtecTools from inserting IDs and passwords, what should I do?

    This is my third time to ask this. The Credential Manager program ProtecTools is being blocked from entering my IDs and passwords. The program is running on my computer and I am "logged in". I need to know if there is a compatibility issue with this like with Norton. Please advise. Thanks.

    Symantec need to update their Firefox add-ons so that they are compatible with Firefox 4. They have indicated that for Norton 360 they plan to release an update to Norton 360 to support Firefox 4 in early May - http://us.norton.com/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docurl=20100720113635EN&ln=en_US
    I do not know about the time scale for updates for other Norton products. Pending the update by Symantec, if you want to use the Norton add-ons you will need to downgrade to Firefox 3.6.
    To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
    You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
    To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.
    For details of how to find your profile folder see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Profiles

  • Is there a way to sync my saved user ids and passwords between Mac and iPhone using iCloud?

    Is there a way to sync my saved user ids and passwords in Safari between Mac and iPhone using iCloud? Like I can do using Chrome for Mac and iOS...

    You three would do better to sync to google directly.  Google has a blackberry app that will allow you to sync your contacts and calendars.  The app isn't perfect, but it works reasonably well, especially if you're just using one calendar to sync.
    Then there's plenty of ways to sync those to your iPad using Google, including Exchange, or simply adding it as a google account.
    As for iCloud, there really isn't any supported or unsupported method to do what you're trying to do, at least at this time.  If there is, it would definitely be a hack and I would be wary of risking your contact or calendar data on it..

  • How many IDs and Passwords do I have?

    I'm confused with the different IDs and passwords used in my new mac life. There's itunes, the computer itself, discussions, imac.....
    Are there really that many different setups? The only ones I'm sure I can get my arms around are discussions (I'm here, right?) and the computer itself since sometimes I'm asked for to install programs.
    Is my iTunes password the same as discussion? How about .mac?
    Thanks much,
    Jeff

    That worked but is there like a "one pass" key for all passwords?
    1) You prolly don't want to do that. Important passwords, like online banking,
    brokerage accounts, email accounts, etc. should be different (and more secure)
    than the ones you use for discussion forums (like this one).
    2) One-size-fits-all passwords aren't possible, anyway. Each organization has
    different rules for formats, minimum/maximum numbers of characters, etc.
    Occasionally, the rules conflict in such a way that it's not possible to find a
    pattern that will work on both "account A" and "account B."

  • Leopard Safari requires reloading user name and password

    Tried asking this another way and no one answered, which left me to wonder if no one on this forum knows the answer or it I wasn't clear in asking it? Let me be more specific: Leopard Safari requires a user name and password to be entered each time an appropriate web site is opened, even when "refresh" is clicked. For example, I use "myyahoo" for the homepage, but now each time I open Safari, I am required to reenter the user name and password. Ditto every site I have saved autofill data for. This did not happen with Tiger, prior to upgrading to Leopard last Friday. I also tried phoning the Apple Care support number -- a 37 minute wait produced someone who said my call needed to be forwarded to the Safari desk, and likely involve another extensive wait. So I gave up that idea and am trying here again. Help!

    Thank you! In Preferences, all the autofill boxes are checked. Just to be sure, I unchecked them all then rechecked them. Autofill form works in Edit. Before the upgrade, Safari was able to maintain user names and passwords on sites where I wanted them. After the upgrade Friday evening, Safari stopped doing this on all sites where I already had a user name and password, including the Mac site. Simply, I am now required to re-enter this information every visit to every site, even if I just click refresh, not only when I exit Safari and return. Even if I leave a site where I have entered the password, visit another site, and then return, the user name and password must be entered again. I have still had no luck getting Apple Care on the phone. This morning I bit the bullet and decided to wait until finally somebody answered, but no amount of patience can listen to scratchy wait music for more than 45 minutes, which is when I gave up. So if someone here doesn't understand this, guess I'm stuck having to enter this information again and again and again... or figure out how to get back to Tiger.
