Saving Passwords On Safari.

7 - A window opens asking you if you want to save the password.   Click “Yes”.

Now for some practice:   Suppose you want to save the password for a Gmail Account.

6 - Then click “Sign In.

Sometimes, when you go online,  Safari can’t locate the password for some reason. No problem if you remember it, but what if you can’t?  You can look it up in Keychain Access.  Click here for steps.keychain.html

1 - Click on Safari in the Menu Bar, and select Preferences.

2 - Select Autofill in the Toolbar.

3 - Click on the box to the left of User name and passwords to put a checkmark in it.

4. That’s it!  You’re done!  Passwords will now be saved in Keychain Access.   You can now click the red dot to close the Safari Preferences window.

Safari can automatically store passwords that you use for online services, such as Gmail, Facebook, Yahoo, etc in a utility on your Mac called Keychain Access.

The next time you want to sign in to the account, Safari will check to see if the account is listed in its Saved Passwords file. If it is, it will fill in the blanks for Username and Password for you.  All you would  need to do is click the Sign in button (6).

Note that the websites and usernames are listed, but not the passwords.  They are safely stored in Keychain Access which needs your computer’s password for access.

9 - If an item is outdated, you can remove it easily. Select the item by clicking on it.

Hint: Firefox will store passwords right in the browser, and can be easily seen by anyone unless you use a master password.  Click here for steps.Firefoxpw.html
