Where are passwords stored on my hard drive, can I access them, alter them

Where are passwords stored on my hard drive/ folder, can I access them and alter them. Can I add passwords to that file/ folder.

Using the Saved Password Editor may be overkill for most users. The quickest way to manipulate saved passwords in Firefox is on the menu bar go to:
Tools -> Options -> Security -> Saved Passwords -> Show Passwords

  • Where are passwords stored for Safari websites

    I thought the place was the Keychain, but where else is are passwords stored?
    I have jsut done a complete reset of the keychain from keychain Access, and the passwords page shows empty
    Yet when I go to certain websites, I still get logged in automatically.
    So where are these other passwords stored?

    HI,
    The usernames and passwords are stored in the Keychain Access application but only if you have the Safari Preferences set up to do so.
    With Safari open, from the Menu Bar, click Safari / Preferences and select the AutoFill tab.
    Make sure Usernames and Passwords is selected.
    From the Finder Help Viewer...
    When you set up a user account in Mac OS X using the Accounts preferences pane, a keychain with the same password is automatically created the first time you log in to the computer. This keychain is the default keychain. When you create passwords for servers or applications, the passwords are added to this keychain.
    You may want to create an additional keychain for personal use that isn’t automatically unlocked when you log in to your user account. For example, you can create a “top secret” keychain to store notes, financial information, and any other items you want to store securely.
    To create a keychain:
    Open Keychain Access, located in the Utilites folder in the Applications folder.
    Open Keychain Access
    Choose File > New Keychain.
    Type a name for the keychain, and then click Create.
    Type a password for the keychain, and then type it again in the Verify field.
    For help choosing a good password, click the key button to the right of the Password field.

  • Old Time Machine Hard Drive - Can't access files?

    Hi
    I have just put an external hard drive I have not used for a approx a year into a spare bay in my Mac Pro.  It has HD video on it, but was surprised when I rebooted my machine to see it is a Time Machine drive (green and white desktop TM hard drive icon).  There is just under 400GB free space of the total 1TB drive, but can only access approx 260GB of that free space.
    So, I am wondering if the remainder of the drive - approx 140GB is an old Time Machine backup from either Lion or Snow Leopard.
    Time Machine can not see the files nor can I access them via Finder.  I only have Mountain Lion on my machine at present, but could partition my Boot SSD drive to add Lion or Snow Leopard on to it.
    Is there any reason why I can't access these TM files if they do existing, or could there be other reasons why this is happening.
    Thanks in advance.
    Matt

    Sorry, I think it's the way I replied to your last question.
    TM remains switched off from doing last clean install and have not used it this time.  I now use an SSD for my boot drive and all my important files I use as and when needed are stored on other hard drives.
    TM at the moment is swtiched off, but with the paddlock open it is asking me to Select Backup Disk - is this what you meant in your last post?  Just wanted to clarify - thanks

  • Where are versions stored in Bridge\Adobe Drive?

    We are currently working with CQ5 \ Bridge 5 \ Drive 3. Lets say I have video file inside CQ and I want to change the version with Bridge. The new video file is a lot smaller, say 30megs less. I copy the new old file over using Bridge and add it as a version. I can now revert back to the old version if I want to or just use the new one. The question is where is the larger file stored? I don't see it in the DAM any more, only see the new smaller file however. If I check the actual file inside the var\dam in CQ I can see variations but I don't know if these are the actual files.
    What I'm getting at is that if I need to replace say 400 larger video files with smaller ones are the large ones still stored some place on the CQ server and would I manual have to delete them? I just need to know where those extra files are stored.
    Thanks!

    Thanks for the help. I was unable to find the "show package content" option inside the windows version of Bridge. For whatever reason it only seems to be a Mac option.

    The only file there is the newer version. So, that all comes back to my original quesiton what happens to the original file? Where is it stored. Is it cached some place on the CQ server and I need to delete the original from the versions?
    I'm afraid I don't have an answer for that. Don't know how CQ works but in general creating a new and smaller version should leave the original untouched.
    But I come to think of it as same behavior as in Lightroom, Aperture or iPhoto that uses a library structure.
    Don't know if you are on Mac or Windows. But on a Mac you can select this library file that itself shows only the icon (mostly in default picture or movie folder). But if used with large amount of files it can grow to quit a size. Using right mouse click gives the option to show package content and that reveals several folders with amongst them an original or master folder that contains the originals. (if you find them don't move them to other locations but copy, otherwise you can loose the functionality in CQ
    Hope this helps you on the right track.

  • Where are iWeb backgrounds on my hard drive

    I just upgraded to iLife '08 and I like the darkroom backgrounds you can tile and would like to use it in a separate template, but I don't want to change the entire template to darkroom. Where on my hard drive did iLife store these templates so I can choose them from a directory?

    Open folder Application
    Rightclick iWeb and choose +Show Package content+
    Open folder Content
    Open folder Resources
    Open folder Themes
    Rightclick Darkroom.webtheme and choose +Show Package content+
    Open folder Shared
    Voila.
    Edit: Also, when you publish a iWeb site to a folder on your HD, the Darkroom_spotlight.jpg is in the pagename_files folder.

  • HP SimpleSave External Hard Drive - Can't Access Files, Says to Re-Format

    I have had a SimpleSave External Hard Drive for over a year now, and have never had any problems with it.
    Recently, I am unable to access my files on the hard drive when it is attached to my computer.  It tries to load, and then gives me the error message "You need to format the disk in drive H: before you can use it. Do you want to format it?".  I don't want to format it because I don't want to lose all of the files that I have stored.  When I press "Cancel" i also get the error message "H:\ is not accessible. Data error (cyclic redundancy check). 
    I have not changed anything recently so I do not understand why it has all of a sudden stopped working.
    I am using an HP notebook (G62 Notebook PC) and Windows 7 Home Premium operating system.
    I am connected to the hard drive via USB.  I have tried turning off my computer and turning it back on, and unplugging the drive.  I have tried using other USB outlets.  
    My SimpleSave information: model no hp md1000h 
    P/N HPBAAD0010HBK-00
    The blue light is still blinking on the front of the hard drive.
    I would like to access my files and get the external hard drive working properly again.  Please help!
    Thanks in advance! 

    I too have the exact same problem on my HP SimpleSave (sd500a) external hard drive. I got through to WDC, and they apparently support these devices now. They asked me to send them a copy of my purchase receipt in order to extend my warranty in their system in order to help me (ridiculous!!). I sent the scanned copy of the receipt to [email protected], and got an auto-reply that they will get back to me within 1 day. I also went on their website, and they refer to the device in their system as 'ED Caviar Blue EIDE Hard Drive'. It has the same serial number as my product from HP, so I guess they have acquired these products or at least support of them (?). In any case, I'm freaking out because I have tons of family pictures, video and my entire iTunes library on the device. If any one is able to get help for this, please respond. I am desperate to get this resolved.

  • New Hard drive, can't access certain aspects. Help needed please

    Hi everyone.
    I have an HP Pavilion dv6-6052ea laptop.
    I've been having problems with the hard drive so got a new one installed.
    My main issues are since getting it back, I can't access any of the original HP installations etc (I've downloaded all the drivers I know about through HP).
    The 2 main things I'm missing are 2 things that came with the laptop.
    1: Beats Audio sound system 
    2: Video Graphics: AMD Radeon HD 6490M (1 GB DDR5)
    and I have no idea how to get them back. Can anyone help. Do I need to install specific drivers? I can't find any trace that they exist on my laptop now apart from the stickers on the laptop! Any help is greatly appreciated. 
    I never had any CD back ups for the laptop. I do have the old HP back up etc saved on a USB but I don't know enough about the folders and files to know what I need to look for. (I still have the old hardrive.)
    Again, any help is massively appreciated. Thank you!
    Tony 

    If you used your HP Recovery Media, all factory install drivers and software would have been installed. If you didn't create your HP Recovery Media when you first setup your computer, please contact official HP support in your region / country, via the HP Worldwide Support Portal, to see if HP Recovery Media is available for your computer.
    If a generic Windows 7 installation disc was used, you will need to install all HP specific driver for your computer. Please try IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver, Intel High-Definition (HD) Graphics Driver, and AMD High-Definition Graphics Driver to resolve your missing drivers issues. Windows 7 64-bit driver for your computer can be found on the HP Pavilion dv6-6052ea Entertainment Notebook PC Drivers page.
    If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

  • (New thread) HP SimpleSave md1000h External Hard Drive - Can't Access Files,

    New thread on same old unaswered issues from others.
    My desktop crashed.  It  needs new harddrive.
    I religiously backup my info everyweek on my simplesave md1000h
    However, before I buy a new computer or replace the harddrive on my old computer, I want to at least get my Quicken Checking account info up and running on my wife's  laptop.
    When I plug in the usb for the md1000h into the laptop,
     it recognizes the  hardware is there but, does not show any files.
    I presume my laptop needs the software to run the simple save.
    However, there is nothing out there on the HP site.
    Can anyone confirm that this is the issue...that I need the software...if so, where can I download it from.
    I beleive the softweare came preloaded on the md1000....now I cant access that software....go figure.
    Any help is appreciated.   Thanks.  Greg

  • Where are my passwords stored on the hard drive in Firefox 16?

    I recently upgraded to Windows 8 and went from Windows 7, and I just forgot to backup (yeah, I know, it's stupid) my profile with the passwords. The windows.old folder is there, with my old profile and all, but I can't seem to find the passwords. In every article I have read about this it says the same "find the key3.db and signons.sqlite in the profile folder". But there is NONE in my Firefox profile folder.
    To see if it had just disappeard from my windows.old folder, I installed Firefox 16 and saved a password. But it's the same there, the files does not exist, at all.
    Does it work differently in Firefox 16? Or is Windows 8 just pure evil?

    hello Nirvasher, it sounds like you may be looking at a wrong folder - this shouldn't have changed with firefox 16. the following article explains how to get into the profile folder: [[Profiles - Where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data]]

  • Iprint client 5.99 where are passwords stored?

    Hi,
    we have a serious problem since iprint client 5.99 update on some lab machines.
    The question: where does iprint store this password information?
    there are circumstances in which User A prints afterwards user B logs in and the user credentials from user A are still visible in iprint client prefernce
    (LDAP_DN, LDAP, eDir, Permanent)
    where does this come from? registry? ini?
    The Setup is with Novell Client - seemless Login.
    if user B trys to print the print is cancelled.
    ippErrs.log shows:
    Module: spoolsv.exe
    Trace Info: registry.c, line 12299, thread 00000DB0
    Routine: GetSessionLoginData - RegOpenKeyEx failed 2
    Error: Das System kann die angegebene Datei nicht finden.
    it seems it tries to look up password information in the rgeistry.
    regards
    Markus

    more details:
    this lab PCs use a shared user. (one windows User and SID - but with Novell Login Client32 and iPrint credentials passthrough)
    Scenario: UserA logs on and Prints successfully. UserA Logs Off Windows Session. UserB Logs on via Novell Client.
    => iPrint Settings shows UserA DN! - and - in some cases even prints with UserA Credentials!! In other Cases Print is canceled.
    I cannot find any place for the credential information. Verfied with registry comparison and file changes view. User Profile is mandatory/empty.
    Only possibility i can think of that iPrint credentials are in Memory (Spooler?) and survives Windows Session logoff/logon.
    Machine restart clears credentials.
    This behavior was introduced with iPrint Client 5.99
    As a quick workaround i placed a logoff script at the Machines with iprntcmd.exe -c (clear all passwords). Not Ideal however.

  • K8TNeo Raid config - where is it stored, MB or Hard drive?

    I have a MSI K8T Neo with the VT8377 SATA Controlller set up for Raid 1 (Mirror) using the VIA Raid tool, on which are two identical disks partioned into C and D; the C drive being the XP system disk. I am using (the excellent) Drive Snapshot tool to take a disk image of C drive as backup onto a external USB drive. To restore I boot from ftoppy or BartPE XP CDRom boot (f6 during this latter will allow me to load external disk driver in nomrla way for XP dyring setup) and then do a restore wiht Snapshot of C image to C. I have not tried this yet
    My question is the two discs are configured as Raid 1 mirror via the VIA VT8377 controller and only appear as one drive (with 2 partitions C and D) ; is this configuration held on the motherboard, if so when I do a restore it will effectively mirror the restore or is it on the C Drive in which case I have a problem?
    many thanks

  • Where are passwords stored on Firefox for Android?

    I can find instructions for getting to your saved passwords file on the desktop version, but the Android version has far fewer option in the settings menu. How can you find your saved passwords on the Android app? Thanks!

    Hello,
    There isn't a native manager in Firefox for android, but you can use an addon:
