I have in the past when entering a password clicked "SAVE" when the auto save password window would pop up. Now I notice that passwords get changed, and the original password is automatically inserted when it is no longer correct. How can you reenter a correct password in this situation?
I recently bought a mac book and i downloaded Chrome, but I think i downloaded something after that caused a virus cause i got inappropriate adds, which my sister was able to fix. I still get these random blank pages that turn into adds for mac keeper or mix and it pops up almost every time i want to click something it really bothers me because i have to constantly close it. i have tried re-downloading it but it still wont work.
I think iTunes mail is the worst. When you hover the mouse over a picture in a mail message, a box pops up with "[URL]". This blocks out the content below this window. Is there a way to turn this off.
One of the pop-window in our web- application is not showing the vertical scroll bar in safari 5.0.5 only. This is on Snow Leopard. The scroll bar appears in later versions of safari like safari 5.1.1. etc.
Ok, so there was this application I've never used but it keeps saying "You do not have permission to use the application "uHD-uninstall-Agent".....and so forth. I click Ok but the pop up keeps popping up and interrupting everything I do. I went to login items to remove it from startup but it still won't stop. This is a school laptop so I cannot control admin.
After updating my itunes to the latest version [11.2.1 (1)], i keep getting this pop-up window (the obscured gibberish is my email address):Â
Not only is it annoying and locks me from using itunes until i hit the 'sync' button, it also prevents me from updating podcasts. it just keeps popping up over and over.Â
Everything in the "Authorize this Computer..." menu checks out and i've only had my one account on this computer and iphone. everything has been fine until the software update.Â
Now every time I click something on a webpage I get a pop up for Facebook sign up or a MacKeeper window. Also getting weird double underlines under my usual links and it goes to adds for random websites.

I keep getting a popup box that asks me for my Yahoo password. It doesn't look anything like the Apple Mail reminders (the ones that make my Mail icon bounce up and down), so I haven't filled it in. I have also changed my Yahoo password just in case that account was hacked, but the popup keeps showing up. All of the answers I've seen in the forums and elsewhere on line are fairly confusing. This seems like some sort of virus, but no one seems to believe that Macs can get viruses.
I keep getting an iCloud Password popup asking me to enter my password. Entering the password and hitting login causes the popup to go away and immediately reopen. Hitting cancel does the same thing. How do I make this popup go away?
I get this popup window every boot. Why does that window show up? and How can I fixed it? + I reinstalled OS X 10.9.3 today. Before reinstalling, I didn't see that window.
so, i have gotten everything all set up and up and running but one thing that i have noticed is my network connection disconnecting itself. every time i have closed i the lid it has diconnected itself from the network. i realize that it goes to sleep when that happens and it shouldnt be really doing anything in sleep mode. but im kinda p-o'ed at how when i open it up i need to re enter the networs pass word. is there a way that i can make it so that it automatically connects to the network when its opened/turned on? i checked the box that "saves the password as a keychain" what ever that means too.
No matter how many times I reposition the finder window, it always pops up on the bottom right corner. I always have to drag it back to the middle. Is there a way to save the position?
I have OSX 10.5.8 and Adobe Acrobat 9 proWhen I have a PDF open and go to file, print, I click the pdf button at the bottom left corner of the print window. I choose "Save as PDF" and I get the following error message: "Saving a PDF file when printing is not supported. Instead, choose File > Save."
Okay, been trying to find where I can configure Motion to remember my window positions, but haven't had any luck. For example, if I set the Layers window to be a certain width, I want Motion to remember that until the next time I change it. Is this possible?Â
I have pdf files I need to save, and the "save as" window drops down directly over the top of the page. Many times the pdf is scanned documents with titles, authors, and publication dates and journal names at the top of the first page. Therefore it is difficult (even though the drop down is opaque) to transcribe the article name into the save file as window, because that information is at the top of the page. I cannot scroll down in the document to have the information visible as it is typically page 1, and I cannot move the save as window over so I can see the file name I want to enter. I have to write the title down on a piece of paper then click save as then type the words in from the paper, even though the title I want to use is under the drop down.
When I install a new program I get a window that pops up asking me for my password. I don't have a Master Password for my computer, I left it blank intentionally so all I have to do is click on OK and the program installs. Likewise, sometimes when I delete some items on my computer this same window pops up.How can I disable this most annoying Password Window?
I have the latest version of Safari (5.0.2) on Snow Leopard 10.6.4. I'm also using 1Password (3.4.4). I'm encountering two issues: 1) Safari rarely Autofills user/passwords when surfing. Autofill is checked off for "User names and passwords". 2) I keep getting prompted over and over again to save my login information in Safari. I continue to click "Yes" but neither Autofill remembers the information and I get prompted again the next time I login.
I've tried and tried to save it but it just stays blank. I've deleted the email account several times but without success. I've also noticed that Safari will not save my internet login password. I'm staying in a hotel and every 24 hours or so, I'll need to re-login. Using SL & Safari the username stays there but not the password. Before the SL install everything was fine, my email password and the hotel username & password would always be input and remembered.
You know when you log into different sites with your passcode and the window pops up to read "Would you like to save this password? How safe it that? I always resist putting in the info for fear that one day it could be stolen. I guess the real test is it safe enough to put your banking, or credit card passcode?
I would like to have my admin password saved on my Macbook Pro so I do not have to always enter it when installing programs and such. I am the only user and am not worried about security issues. So is it possible to do this or does OSX require me to enter my password no matter what?
I just installed a new Modem/Router a Speedport W 502V (I am not impressed with it but my old one died and this needs to do for a few weeks). I like it to store my password but it does not.Â
I have Autofill on and I have a extension installed called "autocomplete" but it still does not do it. I am also not sure if it still works as there seems to be no download anywhere anymore.?

My hard drive crashed therefore I needed to transfer my data and files from my backup via migration assistant. I believe t did something wrong and cause me every time I reboot the machine, a window pop up asking me to input my iCould password.Â
On my Macbook, I use Mail when on the road. Lately, every time I open Mail it asks me for my password. I supply it and compose a message. When I try to send the message, it asks me for my password again. In Mail Preferences, I type in my password for the account, click on the "save changes" box, and close Preferences. When I reopen preferences again, the password is missing. Also when I am asked for the password in order to send or receive messages, I fill in the password and click on "save password in keychain" box. No change - it continues to ask for the password every time.
Last week i had to do a complete restore from time machine after some files got corrupt on my computer now mail wont save my passwords. I have deleted the contents of the keychain, repaired permissions with no luck.
I was able to have mac mail to ask me my password each time I open the app, but ever since I put new system in, I haven't been able to figure this out..
I have a 'mac.com' email acct, I go look on their settings and I still can't figure this out-
Forgive me for not knowing the proper terminology. I have a MacBook Pro running the latest Snow Leopard. I am the only user on my laptop. When I turn on my laptop, it just starts up and I am in. No login. But I recently decided that I should increase my security a little by having the OS prompt me for my password upon waking up from sleep/screensaver. Is there any way to customize the little, basic window that appears where I enter my password? Most forum entries discuss the login window, but I don't think that's what this is called. I'm not really logging in - just unlocking it. I'd like to be able to customize the appearance of the window, the text, maybe make sounds if the wrong password is entered, etc. Main reason for this is for security purposes. If someone tries to use my laptop while it's sitting on my desk at work, I'd like to know (and would like him/her to know I know). Maybe hear it - maybe see some message.
