IMac (Intel) :: Passwords Stuck In Mavericks?

Sep 6, 2014

Recently, I got an email from apple about finally being able to download Yosemite beta. I happily did so, and it was working fine, but my dad wasn't happy. I did this with his permission, but he couldn't get iPhoto to work, and was extremely annoyed at the Yosemite beta, so he tried to fix the problem himself. He somehow loaded all the data up into a time machine file on a hard drive, and then booted our mac in disk utility mode, and recoveried drived it and stuff, which in end, he used to downgrade Yosemite to Mavericks. What he didn't realise was that Yosemite and other OS X versions weren't designed to be downgraded, and in fact don't support it. Well, our computers running Mavericks now, and it is going fine apart from one major hitch. Currently, we are able to login (using our designated passwords) however, once logged in, our passwords don't work. This means nothing can be installed or uninstalled or anything etc.

For example, once logged in, we cannot edit settings, as when this pops up, our passwords just get denied when we try and enter them:

Our passwords when we login are the same, but it is almost like nobody is administrator. However, we clearly are administrator as labeled in the settings tab...

I have tried to reinstall Yosemite however, I need a password to do so.

OS X :: Won't Accept Mac Os Passwords

Dec 23, 2007

I recently got a new macbook pro and with it came my .Mac account. It seems it continuously wont accept my password or my birthdate to retrieve my information since I first got my computer started. It has the option to send it to my .mac e-mail but I can't check it without the password. None of my mac os programs will start without it, and leapard wont install fully without it. I've e-mailed the help desk and they never got back to me. Has anyone else ever had this happen? I've ran out of options, would uninstalling mac os and reinstalling help at all? Or am I just screwed?

OS X :: Security For Passwords

Jul 2, 2009

I seek recommendations please for a password storage site. I just am not able to remember passwords any longer. I definitely don't want to use only one password for all sites and generally couldn't any way due to different password criteria for different sites. [URL] & security lists a site called 1 Password Password Manager and Form Filler 2.9.21.There are also a bunch more listed on the net 5 pages on the page.

My computer (newer imac, last gen) has an issue with remembering passwords. It'll forget them in the middle of me using the internet. Usually it forgets what my Gmail password is (using the gmail notifier in the top right corner), it forgets my passwords on sites like this (every week or so) and it forgets certain things i do in certain programs (itll reset everything like i've never used it before).

OS X :: Snow Leopard - Mac Passwords

Jul 13, 2010

I have Snow Leopard on my new Mac. I transferred all the info from my old Mac. Unfortunately I transferred all my settings which means I have to give my password for any applications (Mail, Safari, etc.etc.) I use or whenever the computer goes to sleep or I switch applications. I can't find a way to stop this. I'm the only user of a computer here and no one else uses it. I don't mind doing it when I first go to the computer but don't want to keep giving my password whenever I do something.

OS X :: 10.5.6 And Safari 3.2.1 Forgetting Passwords

Dec 31, 2008

This is driving me insane. I'm a member of quite a few internet forums and I cannot for the life of me remember all of their passwords. Ever since updating OS X and Safari it keeps forgetting my login details for them even though I tell it to remember when I'm given the option! Sometimes it will remember and keep me logged into a forum when I next visit it. But then it seems to forget again after a couple of days. I'm getting rather fed up of this.

OS X :: Migrating Safari Passwords To New HDD

Mar 22, 2009

I'm in the process of installing a new, 500 GB HDD into the Macbook. The OS is installed onto the new HDD but I haven't actually put the drive into the Macbook. I don't want to just use Migration Assistant to migrate all my user settings over, as there's some wonky stuff going on with my account. Plus, I want to use Safari4 rather than Safari3 which I'm using now, with plugins and addons. I've got all my apps/dmgs backed up, and a current Time Machine backup, but again, don't want to just import everything.

So how do I get my passwords etc migrated over? Can I use Keychain from the old HDD and just copy/paste the relevent files? If so, what files? Basically, I want iTunes settings, all iLife apps, all iWork apps, my backed up dmgs and registrations, my VMware installs (Win XPproSP2 and Vista Ultimate), my firefox logins, my foxmarks install, my documents, my perian settings etc without bringing over the plugins, etc. Will I have to redownload the Blackberry Desktop Manager and Tetherberry into a new VMware? Or will the whole VMware environment migrate over? Sorry if this post seems a little scattered, but it's late where I am and I've just got in from some AWESOME wings'n'beers.

Applications :: Using 1Password For MORE Than Web Passwords?

Sep 26, 2009

I find 1Password to be amazing, but my one complaint is that it doesn't seem easy to make logins for anything other than a web password. What about for my wireless password? To my school education account? My OS X password? Skype? AIM? MSN? Can anyone explain how to do this? I know I could just leave the website field blank, but that seems like a pitiful work around.

Applications :: Passwords Gone With Safari 5

Jun 10, 2010

upgraded to Safari 5 and auto fill no longer works, passwords are mostly forgotten. Used Help and there was nothing to help this issue. To go back and try to remember passwords, account numbers etc is horrible and so far I see no advantages to this new version. This is the unintended consequence of a new version of software even with Apple!

Safari :: Saves Some Passwords But Not Others?

Feb 24, 2012

I have all the boxes ticked in Autofill preferences, ran Keychain First Aid and searched the net for an answer but still my 20" iMac won't store the Yahoo username and password details. It will quite happily store others but not Yahoo. My 24" iMac does it, so does my MacBook Pro and iPhone!

Safari :: It Isn't Memorizing My Passwords

Apr 10, 2012

I recently had difficulty logging into a website account.As a result, I was forced to change my password.  However, when I went to log in with the new password, Safari did not ask whether or not I wanted it to memorize my password.  The same thing happened with another site that I frequent.  I've tried resetting Safari, emptying my cache, etc., but I'm still having trouble logging into one of my favorite sites.

OS X :: Leopard Mail Won't Save Passwords?

Nov 13, 2007

For some strange reason Leopard mail doesn't seem to want to save any of our passwords to any our accounts. We've gone into mail preferences and saved them there, but as soon as we close down mail it 'forgets' them again. We've also repaired the keychain, but the same thing happens. Anyone know of how to fix a password memory problem?

Applications :: Safari Not Saving Passwords

Jan 25, 2008

I'm on a new MacBook Pro at work - came with OS X.4 and an upgrade install disc to Leopard... Safari 3 will NOT save any of my passwords. I continually choose "yes" every time I visit the sites that I want to use this feature for (i.e. project management panel at work), but no luck. Well, not EXACTLY true, on a (very) RARE occasion - Safari will save a username, but still NOT the accompanying password. I've found 2 threads on this same issue on Apple's Support Knowledgebase, there's still no solution from them on this: [URL]

Is anyone else out there having this issue? If so, I'm urging you to post on the thread so Apple will resolve this. I'm in the web design biz, so I am frequenty visiting sites that require login credentials. I'd switch to another browser, but, well - no I won't. I love Safari too much. Hey Apple - can I get a fix ova' here?

OS X :: 10.6 To 10.5 Downgrade (Keychain Not Remember Passwords)

Mar 21, 2009

After using snow leopard for a couple of months I didn't really enjoy it. Applications crashed, plus it was only the beta. I decided to Downgrade to leopard. I backed up using time machine, cleared my HD in Disc Utility, and tried to restore. This didn't work since the default applications were not compatible with Leopard s I had to start fresh then drag my apps and everything manually. After a couple of days, it was all done. Now after 3 months since I downgraded, Keychain is really starting to tick me off. Every time I use an application that requires a password, it never remembers and I always have to type it. I've tried using pacifist and putting back in keychain, nothing. Tried to make a new keychain nothing. Tried to repair, nothing. What is going on here.
