Question about Google Chrome

1 Answer

How do I clear my autocomplete in Chrome? I have forgotten to hit Tab between entering my username and my password on one or two sites so when autocomplete kicks in I see two options - one is my username and one is myusername with my password added on the end. I want to clear autocomplete so it can start again clean but cannot find the place to do it in Chrome.

In the upper righthand corner of your browser, click on the wrench looking icon (customize and control Google Chrome). Click Options. Click Personal Stuff. Click Passwords. You can now go in and delete the passwords that are causing you the problems. When you go back to the website, you can reenter your passwords the way that you want and Google Chrome will save them correctly.

    Sorry, forgot to add that you can clear "forms" by clicking on the Wrench looking icon, click "tools", click "clear browsing data", then you can check tabs to clear "forms". This will clear out all the form data so you can start all over again. mydaddyscat : )

Gmail account open without asking password
The auto-filling of the login:password fields is a function of your browser.

To clear existing saved data:
Firefox: Tools -> Options, Security tab, "Saved Passwords", delete specific ones or all of them.
IE: Tools -> Internet Options, Content tab, Autocomplete [-> settings], delete autocomplete history.

To clear specific entries:
If you don't want to clear the entire list, you can also try using the arrow keys to select a specific entry and hit the DEL (Delete) key to remove it.

To turn the feature off:
Firefox: Tools -> Options, Security tab, uncheck "Remember passwords for sites".
IE: Tools -> Internet Options, Content tab, Autocomplete [-> settings], uncheck "User names and passwords on forms" and "Prompt me to save passwords"

Google login email
This is because you activate auto-password (or password remembering; password autocompletion) in your browser. Force the login procedure (as any usual user) and re-enter your username and the new password (be careful with CAPS LOCK!) and re-check "Remember me" option to not enter username & password each time you open your e-mail page...

My memory cannot remember my user/passwords
Popular Web browsers have features that allow them to remember passwords so you don't have to constantly enter login information on the websites you visit.
If your browser does not automatically ask if you would like to save the passwords you type, you can quickly turn the feature on and begin saving your information.

Open Internet Explorer, and click "Tools."
Click "Internet Options," and then select the "Content" tab.
Click "Settings" under the "AutoComplete" heading.
Locate the box that says "User names and passwords on forms" and click the box to check it. If you want Internet Explorer to ask your permission before saving a password you type, check the box next to "Ask me before saving passwords."
Click "OK," and then click "OK" again.
Mozilla Firefox
Navigate to the login page of the site you want to save a password for, and enter your password.
Click "Remember" when Firefox asks you if you want the password to be remembered.
Turn the Password Manager on if you are not prompted to save the passwords that you enter.
This feature is turned on by default, but if it has been disabled you can enable it.
Click "Tools," "Options" and "Security," and then check the box next to "Remember passwords for sites."
Apple Safari
Open a browser window, and select "Safari" from the menu bar.
Click "Preferences," and then click 'Autofill."
Check the box next to "Usernames and passwords."
Your passwords should be saved from now on.

  • Select the Content tab.
  • Click AutoComplete...
  • Under Clear AutoComplete history, click Clear Forms.
hope this helps you out.

I w ou ld like to know why, that everytime I put my password in the slot where it goes, that it always comes back, that this not my password, Everytime I put my password in the slot, it comes up to...
I would have to know the browser you are using. If you are using Internet Explorer, this is a password autocomplete feature. You most likely entered your email instead of your password, and now it is entered to be automatically entered when you go to facebook. You can clear this out, but keep in mind, it will also clear out any other passwords that you might have saved, so be careful if this is a concern. In Internet Explorer, click on "Tools" then "Internet Options" then click on the "Content" tab. There will be a section named "AutoComplete" and next to it, click on "Settings". Here you will have the option to "Delete AutoComplete History". This should clear your password and allow you to enter the correct one. Let me know how it goes.

Good Luck!
