how to get safari to remember login and password after I said do not remember

I went to a website through Safari and logged in and accidentally hit Never remember for this site and now I cannot get safari to remember the login and password. I have gone through preferences/passwords and the site is not listed and it will not allow me to add a site. I would love help with this since I log on to this site just about every day! Any suggestions?

iPhone 5s, iOS 7.0.6

It might be a corrupted keychain ...


Open Keychain Access located in HD > Applications > Utilities


Open Keychain Access then select Passwords on the left.


Right or control click a keychain then click Delete.


Back to Safari. Login to the website you want the password autofilled.


Click Yes when prompted to save that data to a new keychain.

Keep in mind, not all websites espcially financial institutions allow the autofill feature.

  1. Launch Keychain Access - it's in your Mac's Utilities folder.
  2. In the column on the left, under Category, select Passwords.
  3. In the filter field at the upper right - the one with the "magnifying glass" icon, type a few characters of the website you wish to use. The relevant Keychain entries will appear, indicating (Passwords not saved) if that was your preference.
  4. Select the Keychain entry, then Edit > Delete. Confirm the dialog by clicking Delete.
  5. In Safari, navigate to the website(s) in question and log in. This time, elect to save the password.

I am also having the same problem..I chose not to save a password for my college student service website, and now i regret it because i have to manually log in every time i go on. But i tried the Keychain Link and the website that i am trying to save a password for is not listed. It is also not listed in the preferences page of safari either.


So is there any other way i can get safari to remember my password for this website?

Ok guys, I had this same issue, certain sites were not asking whether or not I would like to save the password for auto fill. Here is the NO BS answer on how to fix this.

1. Open "Finder"

2. then open "applications" and open the "utilities" folder

3. Open "keychain access"

4. On the left, under catagory select "passwords"

5. on the bottom of the window there is a small square with a "+" indicating add. Click that and enter the desired website/username/password then click "add"

6. AND BOOM!!! Your credentials are saved!! now open safari and go to the desired website, your username and password will be auto filled.
