    I Had the same problem and it was easily resolved. If you have set your browser to private it won't auto fill, switch private browsing off and it works. Hope this helps.

    same here, thanks for posting this as I have a few passwords saved and it would have taken a while to re-set passwords up for numerous website.

    If the Autofill option doesn't appear above your keyboard, make sure you have "Shortcuts" enabled under Settings->General->Keyboards.

    I was having the same issue and was totally frustrated. I tried everything to no avail. I eventually found that iPad was not on the same profile that my iPhone was using under contacts. Your "ME". Once I updated it all was well.

    Thank you. Did everything everyone suggested. Then I go to the site and keyboard pops up w/no auto fill and I did as you said and clicked on the line at the top of the keyboard and the auto fill came up. After I clicked the auto fill, I logged out of the site and when I opened it again, the username and password auto filled.  I wish Safari would leave my GD settings alone!!! I've been looking for a solution for days, and finally had time today to try everything but I don't normally have time for this!!! Which is why I was using the auto passwords in the 1st place!!

     

    Anyway, thanks for your help. **** shame we have to help each other after giving Apple all of our monies........

    After like 2 years of having this problem, I've finally discovered what was wrong... and it's something so simple, but obviously easy to overlook...

     

    Settings App > General > Keyboard > [Turn on 'shortcuts]

     

    Please respond to let us know if this has solved it for everyone?
