Safari will not autofill username/password for Hotmail

I cannot get safari to autofill my username and password for hotmail.com. Everywhere else it works but not hotmail. Anybody else have this problem and now how to fix it? I have had my computer for 3 years and gone from tiger to snow leopard and this problem has always been there.

HI,
From the Safari Menu Bar click Safari/Preferences and select the Autofill tab.
Click the Edit button next to "Other forms".
Delete hotmail.com
Click the Edit button next to "User names and Passwords". Delete Hotmail
Relaunch Safari. If that didn't help...
Quit Safari. Open Keychain Access. (Applications/Utilities) Select Passwords on the left. Delete the "Safari Forms AutoFill" and Hotmail items. Relaunch Safari. Next time it asks for authorization, click "Always Allow".

  • Safari will not open on iPad for over 24 hr. Internet is working.

    Safari will not open on iPad for over 24 hrs. Internet is working. Laptops are working. Ipad has been perfect until now.

    Reset: hold down the home button along with the power button until you see the Apple, then let go.

  • Had to reset, now my apple tv will not accept by password for my wireless system, what do I do?

    Apple TV will not accept my password for my TV, had to restart, what do I do?

    Power cycle the router and try again.
    If the issue persists, temporarily turn off security on the router and connect.  Then turn security back on and connect, it should accept the password this time.

  • TS1398 I have been having network problems on my Ipad and I reset all network settings as advised in the article about problems connecting to networks.  Now my Ipad will not allow me to sign onto any network....it will not accept the passwords for any net

    My ipad has been a little glitchy for the last couple of weeks....not able to load pages because of DNS lookup failure and really slow loading...some of which has to do with the DSL service I have, but I followed the directions on one of the Apple wi-fi issues pages to reset network all connections..which I did, and now the Ipad cannot connect to WiFi because it will not accept (or cannot resolve..or??) password.  I am sure I am typing the password correctly and have tried it on several routers..and it cannot cannect to any router properly even with the correct password.  My laptop is connected just fine and it accepts the password and I have confirmed the password with the ISP and tried other routers.
      So the question is what should I do if I am entering the right password and the Ipad can't sign itself on to the Wifi network?

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • TS1398 my Iphone 4 S will not accept Wifi Passwords - for some Wifi locations

    @ some locations my Iphone 4 S would not accept the Wifi Password  , gives me a error " incorrect Password "  - any suggestiions ? It connects with my Home linksys  moderm .

    Only the wireless carrier to which the iPhone is locked can
    unlock it. If the iPhone is locked to Orange, you have to
    work with Orange to get it unlocked. Perhaps someone
    more familiar with UK wireless providers will jump in as
    to the 30 day period, but generally the wireless provider
    sets the unlock requirements. It sounds like Orange is trying
    to discourage unlocking or at least make it inconvenient.

  • HT1694 All of a sudden my ipad is not recognizing my password for hotmail what the heck. This ia after it stopped being ablr

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • How do i log in.  Will not accept username/password on 5.0.2

    I'm getting kicked back after every attempt to log in. It says user terms and agreement has changed and offers upan iCloud URL that doesn't help either help!

    Hi,
    To ensure we can resolve your login issue as quickly as possible, could you please send an email to the support email address, listed on the Support Information for apex.oracle.com page? Please include the workspace names for the two workspaces you have on that instance.
    Thanks,

  • IPhone will not retain wrt54g password

    Hi all. I have  a iphone that will not retain the password for a WRT54g. Each time I leave the house, I have to renter the wifi password on my phone. It remembers other networks, just not the house. I'm clueless on modems, so if you suggest that I do this or that,...... Dumb it down A LOT! Thanks!

    You just need to ensure router’s firmware is updated. Reset the router and reconfigure. You can download firmware from this link http://homesupport.cisco.com/en-us/support/routers/WRT54G.

  • An install request for a new helper app appeared, I entered my system password to download the app.  Since then safari will not open.  It just comes up with a safari quit unexpectedly report.  I have tried logging on as a Guest but it does the same.

    I have a MacBook Pro with OS X Yosemit.  MY safari will not open, it only comes up with a safari quit unexpectedly report.  A new helper app appeared requesting my system password to download the helper.  Stupidly I input the password, when I log off I can see the download icon for a split second still running asking to abort or continue.  How do I sort this?

    Genieo Adware is installed.  Removing it will help.
    If you have another browser installed, use it.
    If not, launch App store and get another  browser for temporary use.
    Remove it afterwards.
    1. Use  free  AdwareMedic by clicking “Download ” from here
        http://www.adwaremedic.com/index.php
        Install , open,  and run it by clicking “Scan for Adware” button   to remove adware.
        Once done, quit AdwareMedic by clicking AdwareMedic in the menu bar and selecting
        “Quit AdwareMedic”.
                   or
        Remove the adware  manually  by following the “HowTo” from Apple.

  • Safari will not open MSN or Hotmail

    For some reason Safari will not open Hotmail or MSN, any ideas?

    the fix you mention was on the apple support site, but it seems to be a temporary fix.
    it really ***** that to get into hotmail you have to do so much.
    i did find another work around when you get into that "login loop." offhand, i forget the screen, but there is a link that says something like "account information." click on that and enter your password. you get another screen to change your user preferences. then click on your hotmail link. hotmail should open up (albeit in the older version). this works for a while, but then eventually you have to go through the process again.

  • Safari will not remember passwords

    I've only recently started using keychain but this has already gotten on my nerves. Almost all of my websites will not remember my password, and not just banking sites - even YouTube and MySpace ask for my password. And when I do, it gives me the "This password is different. Would you like to replace the saved password with this one?", even though it's the same.
    I've searched the discussion pages and here's a list of solutions I've tried but to no avail:
    - Checking "User names and passwords" in Autofill in Safari preferences
    - Unchecking "Open with Rosetta" (wasn't checked anyway)
    - Deleting com.apple.safari.plist
    - Keychain First Aid
    - Creating new keychain
    - Deleting "Safari Forms Autofill"
    Can anyone help me out?
    Rob

    I also have the same problem and have tried all the recommended solutions to no avail. I have finally switched to Firefox for most of my Web browsing because it does not present a similar inconvenience for me as does Safari right now. Nonetheless, I still wish that was not the only apparent solution to this problem for me, as I prefer Safari to Firefox otherwise.
    If any of you finally do find a was to fix this once and for all, please clue me in, too.
    Thanks!

  • I have updated my iOS and now my hotmail will not verify my password through apple mail app.  I have reset password - tried new password and old password and it still gives me password incorrect.  Hotmail works fine on Mac.  Has anyone had this difficulty

    I have updated my iOS and now my hotmail will not verify my password through apple mail app.  I have reset password - tried new password and old password and it still gives me password incorrect.  Hotmail works fine on Mac.  Has anyone had this difficulty and been able to resolve it?

    Did you try deleting the mail account, then adding it back?   I've read a lot of times that is what needs to happen in order for it to work properly.

  • HT1430 I can not open my email.  A box comes up stating- CAN NOT GET MAIL, The user name or password for "Hotmail" is incorrect,   I never have to use a password on my IPAD.    What is going on?

    I Can not open my email, Never had this problem...   Message says:   CAN NOT OPEN MAIL, The user name or password for "HOTMAIL" is incorrect.
    What is going on???????

    Check your email settings (on your iPad) for that account and make sure the username and/or password are correct.

    I no longer have an email address that was also my Apple ID. Can I still use the email address as my Apple ID?
    Apple recommends you change your Apple ID to your current, working email address. This will not create another Apple ID, it will only change it to your working email address. See Changing the name you use for your Apple ID if you'd like more information.
    Note: @mac.com and @me.com Apple IDs can not be renamed.  If you no longer use the .mac or .me email address be sure to add your valid email address as an additional email address.
