Maybe you didn’t know about these options, but they are there and they aren’t really that hard to find. So, I am sorry, I can’t agree with your comment at all. You can use any of them to gain easy access to your login data. If you have a problem with a site, like the one you reported here, the LastPass add-on has the site at the bottom of it’s dialog, so you just have to click it to access the Edit, Copy Username and Copy Password options. choose edit, to edit the login details, which allows you to change the password or simply view it, by clicking the icon that mimics an eye. use the option to copy the password and then paste it wherever you need.Ģ. If you use simple passwords, or re-use the same one at multiple sites, you put yourself at risk of being hacked.Īre you aware that you can use the LastPass browser add-on, browse the sites list, choose a site, right click it and then have several options to access the password (and the username):ġ. If you get too fancy with them in an effort to achieve ultimate security, you put yourself at risk of losing access to your data. I think passwords are a terrible measure for security.
But if something happened to LastPass or its site, I would be barred from Syncplicity forever. At this stage, I could go to my “vault” on the LastPass site and look up the password. If I had used one more difficult to remember or, heaven forbid, allowed LastPass to create one for me, something truly random-looking, I would be totally at the mercy of LastPass. I am happy that I have used a low-level password there that I can remember easily. After entering my ID manually, the screen is redrawn and asks for my password. LastPass doesn’t recognize the new logon screen and fails to enter anything. Now it asks only for my ID on a first screen. However, suddenly, Syncplicity changed their logon screen. Normally LastPass would enter my ID and password automatically. Every once in a while I come across a situation in which I breathe a great sigh of relief knowing that I didn’t commit myself completely to a password manager. I’ve long been puzzled by the enthusiasm many people have for password managers such as LastPass, which is my choice.
