Automatic Fill-in of Username and Password
Until the last update, when I signed in and typed the first letter of my username, a box appeared with my full username. I clicked on it, then hit tab and the password was automatically filled in. But now I have to type the entire username and password each time. Is that a feature of LDS.org or of my own computer? And if it is my computer, can someone explain to me how to change it?

It's a feature of your browser. What browser/version are you using? I don't personally use that feature much, but I'm sure someone knows.

For IE9, the feature is called AutoComplete, and is configured using the Content tab under Tools > Internet Options. Click the Settings button in the AutoComplete section.lesueur926 wrote:I am using Internet Explorer 9.
The relevant check boxes are "User names and passwords on forms" and "Ask me before saving passwords". In my testing, it appears that you have to have "Ask me before saving passwords" checked in order to have it actually save user names and passwords, even if you have checked the "User names and passwords on forms" option.
