• How can I save or export the file containing passwords and usernames stored?

  I'm about to update the OS from my desktop, which means that my hard disk will be wiped. I want to save any file that Firefox could have, which contains the usernames and passwords so I don't have to rebuild this file once Firefox is reinstalled. I found these files for extensions and bookmarks, but not for the passwords.

  What password? You can change a password for the account, but if you do not know the FileVault password, you are in a bind. You need to call Apple directly if you their sent an emergency password when configuring the FV.

• Keychain, iCloud + problems of Photos on MBPro since changed password and password set firmware

  Hello

  I recently changed the password for the connection on my main account on my MBPro and added a firmware password, but that doesn't seem to work properly: whenever I reboot Keychain keeps asking me to access the local keychain and all iCloud apps are disabled. I also have problems with pictures. FYI my boot HD is encrypted with FileVault.

  I put details on the issues below, as well as what I tried so far (based on the collected suggestions from these forums) as well as some newspapers Console elements that seem strange.

  I don't know how to proceed at this point that some options might make things worse if not done does not correctly (or in the right sequence). I'm tempted to disable Firmware password, go back to the old password, or turn off FileVault to see if the problems goes, but I'm afraid it might make things worse (and I would like to have these features runs later). I also have the opportunity to reinstall the OS and return to a previous TimeMachine upward.

  I would appreciate anyone's help on this one.

  Thank you very much.

  DOM

  Plug

  MBPro Core i5 2.7 Ghz 13 "retina

  16 GB RAM 256 GB SSD + 2 TB external HD.

  Mac OS X 10.11.16 (15-1004)

  FileVault is running on the boot disk (SSD).

  Firmware password has been set.

  I have a Time Machine backup (on a second external hard drive).

  I installed a functional copy of Mac OS X on an external hard drive 3.

  I do not use iCloud keychain.

  I have another admin account that works.

  Problems:

  (1) Keychain: whenever I start the CommCenter ask the session keyring password (I must then enter the previous admin password).

  I wonder then if I want to update the local keyring: to do this I have to enter my new login password in the "current password" and then I type the same new password fields. Once I reboot the problem reappears: exactly the same sequence, as if the information could not stick. Might have something to do with the FileVault and Firmware password.

  (2) iCloud: after having rebooted and enter my passwords from keychain as described above, none of the iCloud applications work (email, Messages, Contacts, calendars, reminders, Notes, find my Mac, iCloud drive, etc.).

  He tells me tells me he is not able to connect to iCloud and asked me to try to do it in the preferences panel. When I tried to connect there, he couldn't connect to iCloud and told to try again later.

  (3) photos: at the launch of Photos he says he cannot open the library system and propose to choose a. When I choose the right pair, it opens fine, but a ton of photos are most referenced correctly. All images come my an external HD (the iPhoto library is also on the same HD), and nothing has changed in the structure of folders.

  What I tried (after the Time Machine).

  1. I installed Mac OS was last updated.

  2 - I activated the guest account and tried to connect: it only works Safari.

  3. I logged in using another admin account: no problem with Keychain and all iCloud apps work. Not tried Photo since this account is not a library and is not configured for access to the main account.

  4. I tried to boot into safe mode: is not work (might have something to do with the password FileVault and Firmware).

  5-return to the main account I ran disk help and fixed permissions: discs seem to be ok.

  6. in the key string App I locked and unlocked keychain using the lock in the upper left corner of the application. When asked for my password I just typed my user password. When I rebooted I had the same problems.

  7. I've tried updated the password in the keychain app by entering the old password and then my new password for connection in the other two fields (new password and confirm). Still problems with iCloud and after restart I have the same problems of Keychain.

  8 - I tried resetting my default keychain: I got an error, because I don't have the permission to do so.

  9 - I tried to create a new keychain session and making it the default keychain, but I keep getting the same problems (iCloud does work does not + issues of password even after I reload).

  10 - iCloud: I tried to close the session from iCloud, then enter my iCloud ID and password, but it says no more: it cannot connect or that the Mac is already connected to this account. I closed the session again, iCloud used Safari to manage my AppleID (https://appleid.apple.com/), listed devices associated with and my MacBook off the list: I always have the same questions even after reboot. I even tried to delete the iCloud account since the Internet Accounts preferences panel, but it is not listed. I tried to add it, but he said that the Mac is already connected.

  11. in Terminal, I glued the special order in some discussions (find ~ $TMPDIR..------(-+ flags sappnd, uappnd, schg, uchg o! - user $UID o! - perm - 600-) 2 > & -| wc-l | pbcopy) and got 21 to 22, and a result the first time earlier.

  12 - looking at logs just console after reboot, I see a couple of things that seem odd that appear multiple times with slight variations (I paste only an example):

• Time Machine security and file Vault

  I've been using Time Machine to backup my Mac on a HDD external Cie La for a long time.  I wonder if someone would be able to access my ups back if they stole my external HDD of the Cie. I recently started using the file Vault on my Mac but my HDD external Cie La was temporarily disconnected when I used the file Vault to encrypt my Mac. I need to run File Vault to encrypt my Cie La external HARD drive? (I partitioned my HARD drive the Cie I use part to store your confidential files. When I created the partition I used for the password of the Cie system protect the part where I store my confidential docs, but not for the part that handles the back ups time Machine). Any advice on this subject would be greatly appreciated.

  FileVault encrypts only your drive hard iMac, not your drive Time Machine, so that anyone with access to your external drive can view and restore your backups.

  Time Machine has acquired an option that allows you to encrypt your backups. Just follow these steps-> OS X Yosemite: secure your Time Machine backup disk

  Apart from that, you have two partitions on your drive externally (one for backup) and another for your personal files or is in a partition? I suggest you keep your backups and your personal files in different partitions or drives, as they may interfere with Time Machine.

• File Vault using the same password as a user account?

  As my computer is password protected is what advantage is there in the use of File Vault especially if it will have the same password as my user account?

  Without FileVault, anyone who is in physical possession of the computer can read and edit all your files without knowing your password. With FileVault, it cannot.

• software password methods (and keychain)

  I try to refine my use of passwords on my different computers and I wonder if someone wouldn't mind offering their expertise in a repair tutorial.

  the problem is that I have safari on a laptop and a desktop computer, and these are connected via icloud. I also have an iphone. no doubt all these are connected to the same (?) I guess that KEYCHAIN that stores passwords for things like Web sites and credit cards and autocompleting of personal information.

  then I also have the 1Pass for mac software.

  I tend to store passwords in the 1Pass software but also click to confirm the storage of the passwords in the keychain. However, I do not understand how it works, or if they are related or completely independent or what.

  for example, if I pay for something online Keychain nicely stores my credit card data.

  If I connect to a site Web plugin safari 1Pass stores well my login information

  However, I keep a backup of my passwords in the software of taking notes that I seem to need it often (for example when the password in 1Pass does not work for some reason any). also, here are the passwords but not exceptionally safe passwords generated by an algorithm. I would switch to more secure passwords, but I can't understand how it worked.

  1 1Pass doesn't seem to enter password in ANY Web site I have access, so sometimes I have to ACCESS the database and FIND the Web site and then manually enter the information.

  2 1Pass does not seem to automatically enter the date in a website on the IPHONE when in safari (I guess that there is no plugin IOS?) so in this case, when I land on a page that I need to do something with - I need to BACK out of safari, enter 1Pass, FIND THE WEB site, then navigate to the Web site through the 1Pass app and then try to connect to the site. It is a major pain.

  3 /if/ a password does not work in 1Pass and /if/ does not save the password manually in the note-taking software, what would I? I guess I reset the password via the Web site and enter the new password in 1Pass.

  4 how the KEYCHAIN interface with all this? It even works or somehow, it works in the background? done only passwords autocomplete KEYCHAIN and connections in safari or he asks a guest to do this? If I do not get a command prompt to add a Keychain password can I add it myself?

  5. what happens in the workflow above when I use someone else's phone because my battery died or if I have to use someone else's computer? I guess I could connect my iCloud account if it is computer confidence of a friend and get access to the safari via Keychain passwords? I would do that on another iPhone? I mean, I couldn't do it on someone else non-iphone I could? and how do I enter 1Pass when not to use one of my devices?

  6. give the #5 question, it seems almost vital to keep a list of passwords in the note-taking software that is independent of the software (1Pass or Keychain). is it possible to export this information in an easily accessible document that I keep with me or print?

  Thank you

  Given that most of your questions related to 1Password, I suggest to take a look at his support page here.

  4 Keychain can provide auto-complete for usernames and passwords in safari, it could also before entering a username and password. If you delete the text entered, it will give the list a list of usernames under the name of user and password text field. When you have a valid password field, Keychain should see the a key symbol to the right in the text field, clicking on it will bring down a list of names of users and saved passwords.

  

  • You can add the password yourself.

  5. When you connect to a device with your account Keychain will be disabled by default and will ask you to turn it on in settings. Or even require that you select to use iCloud Keychain during the implementation of a device. And to turn it on, you need to provide confirmation on another verified device, or type a security code, or both depending on your security settings. More on this in the FAQ here. Don't forget, the keychain is a service from Apple and will not run on non-Apple operating systems.

  6. keep your passwords on a document saved and synchronized accessible via internet is a security risk and is not recommended. However, if you want the notes that can be synchronized and accessible from the internet, Apple built in Notes app serves this purpose. Set a password to lock your notes slightly sensitive data such as numbers of national identification and emails can also protect from prying eyes. However, it is highly preferable to avoid storing sensitive data such as passwords in this application.

• All IT gurus out there who know Firefox... have lost the passwords saved when FF created a new profile and delete old files key3.dbf and logins.json profile.

  All IT gurus out there who know Firefox... have lost the passwords saved when FF created a new profile and delete old files key3.dbf and logins.json profile. Any ideas, anyone?

  So it's not a logins.json file?

  I see a signons3.txt file and a file signons.sqlite older, if you can try to see if you can import passwords stored in this file.

  You can force Firefox to re-import the passwords in the file signons.sqlite and regenerate the file logins.json with the following steps:

  • reset the signon.importedFromSqlite pref on the topic: config page by default via the context menu
  • Delete the logins.json file in the closed Firefox with Firefox profile folder

  When you restart Firefox, then you should have the pref signon.importedFromSqlite with the value set to true.
  You have passwords that are imported in the password manager, unless there were errors or signons.sqlite signons3.txt.

  You can open the topic: config page via the address bar.
  You can accept the warning and click on "I'll be careful" to continue.

  If the files have a permissions password, you must know it and delete security, before you can edit the files. That is right.
