So please can someone tell me, have a I been wasting my time here? Or is it not possible to get KeePass, which sounds like a cool tool, to work on this machine?Īnd I do wish you had a website which was less than ultra-dense, for people who really don't want to spend the whole of their lives in front of a computer trying to translate very obtuse jargon. Restarting the computer made no difference. It installed fine, but when I tried to run it, it immediately crashed. Then I found something called KeePass2.20.1, so I tried that. I just wanted to make it clear that I spent some time optimizing my. KyPass Companion allows you to have auto-fill function in your Chrome or. The integrated search function allows to search in the complete database. It saves many different information (user names, passwords, urls, comments, ) in one single database.
However, I just had a disturbing situation - I made a change to my kdbx file on my Mac using Kypass Companion. Recently I bought a Chrome OS device, which caused me to look around for a solution to allow me to use my Keepass passwords in Chrome OS. Okay, that was a long prelude for today’s topic. KyPass is a Mac version of KeePass from Dominik Reichl. I've been using KyPass Companion on Mac and Keepass 2 on Windows without problem for a long time now.
I am using KyPass Companion on the Mac and Keepass2Android on my Android phone, always with the same database. Well, I tried every one on that page, down to 0.7, and none of them work on Snow Leopard. This means that you can easily sync the database between different devices with different operating systems. I looked back at the Downloads page, and saw that there was a note for version 0.8.2 that said it didn't work with 10.7.
Alternatively, you could install the Windows Version in a Wine Wrapper with Mono installed, which should be able run from a USB disk, but it wont be truly portable as almost all Mac OS X. Without the URL, the browser integration piece is.
I always used Keepass as a reference, so I did not have a URL for each site. The next thing to note is that the import process un-checks entries without a URL.
Its a version of KeePass specifically compiled to run on OS X with Mono. Unfortunately, my favorite Mac Keepass port KyPass Companion did not allow CSV export, so I had to fire up a PC to convert the data.
Do I need both? Will either do?Īfter installing some things called Mono (but where even IS it on my machine?) and XQuartz, as KyPass Companion (the only useful download I'd found at that point) insisted on them, though it didn't tell me what they were, or why I needed them, I then downloaded and installed KyPass Companion v.0.8.3, only to discover that it doesn't work on Snow Leopard. Install the KeePass 2.x for Mac OS X package (link on the downloads page). I couldn't find anything anywhere on the site, which is extremely dense, about which versions would work with which operating systems, it only generically mentions 'OS X', which isn't really much help.Īnd nor does there seem to be any clear statement of the difference between KyPass Companion and KeePass2.2-0.1. Hallo, I really hope someone here can help me, as I'm tearing my hair out! I've spent the last hour at least, trying and failing to get any version or flavour of KeePass to work on my computer, which is an iMac running 10.6.8.
