I work in a college and loan out ipads to students and staff. Someone decided to allow safari to remember their password for a website. However, when i go to delete it, it will ask me to delete it, then delete it. However, if I go back to the menu, and then select saved passwords again - it will be there. Any ideas on how to delete it pernamently?
Did you try this? Settings>Safari>Passwords and Autofill>Saved Passwords>Tap the log in that you want to delete and then Tap the Edit button.
You can also clear Safari. Settings>Safari>Clear history, cookies and data.
I did try that. and it did clear it, but as soon as I go back to the saved passwords screen - its back there. Even tried a soft reset with the password "cleared"
That really should remove the passwords. Did you try Settings>iCloud>Keychain>Off? This person may have set that up and it may still be remembering the passwords in his/her keychain from another device.
There isn't an appleID logged into it, so going to icould just asks me to sign in.
I'm running out of ideas, but I've had a bad run the last couple of days and I think age is starting to catch up to me, But I digresss, sorry ....
Try this now, settings>Safari>Passwords & Autofill. Turn everything off that is in that setting, then go in and delete the log in information in Saved Passwords.
Tried all of that.......
Maybe its the cold thats getting to you... đ
And it is ****** cold here, let me tell you! đ
I have one lousy trick left up my sleeve other than restoring the device as new ... And that should totally erase the sucker, but see if this will work.
Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings. That returns the iPad settings to factory defaults and in theory, returning the settings to factory defaults would erase anything customized in the settings - such as saved passwords and log in items.
You will not lose any data, if that matters, but all device settings will have to be entered again.
