How Do I Get My Browser to Remember My Password?

1. Easiest Way:

Whenever you log in to KeepandShare you have the option of checking a "Remember me" box. This causes KeepandShare to store your username and password in a 'cookie' on your local PC for the next 30 days, or until you click on the 'Sign Out' command from KeepandShare.

If the 'Remember me' does not seem to be working for you, it should be because:

  1. You are clicking on the blue 'Sign Out' command from KeepandShare, which causes it to flush your remembered username / password. Instead of 'Sign Out' just close the browser tab that KeepandShare is running in.
  2. Your browser might have cookie support turned off. You should turn on cookies in your browser.

2. Using the Browsers Password Feature - Good for Multiple Account Users:

If you use multiple KeepandShare accounts then you can't use 'Remember me' but you can have your browser remember your password.

In Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 and 7:

  1. Select the Tools pull down menu
  2. Select "Internet Options..." menu item
  3. Select the "Content" tab
  4. Select the "AutoComplete..." button
  5. Make sure both "User names and passwords on forms" and "Prompt me to save passwords" check boxes are checked
  6. Then click on the OK button twice.

Log into KeepandShare, then log out and log back in (since the re login screen is different, it's password will be remembered also).

Now if you want you can turn off the Auto Complete save passwords for other logins, just unclick the "Prompt me to save passwords" and your password for KeepandShare will still be remembered.

In Firefox 2:

You will find the Firefox password settings in the Tools menu, then Options, then click on Security. There is a checkbox "Remember passwords for sites". Follow similar steps to the above IE procedure.
