    New iPad forum log in problems

    Long story short, I sent our iPad Mini for a battery service and Apple replaced the iPad so I received a new one yesterday. I installed the back up and updated to iOS 12.4 and started using it.

    It soon became apparent that none of the saved passwords and usernames had crossed over to the new device. However, most of them I can remember except one. I know the username and was pretty sure I remembered the password but no. This is where it gets frustrating – when I click Forgotten Password, and fill in my email and username, it keeps saying it doesn't recognise them? I double checked details on my phone and all are correct. I even used the phone to go through the process and change the password.

    Even after deleting the history and removing the website from the Password keychain, booting off and on, it still won't recognise my log in details. And I'm 100% certain I'm inputting them correctly and not saving them in case the wrong one gets archived.

    Does anyone have any ideas what might have happened? I suspect the website itself because all others seem to be OK.

    I can't log on with my IPad Pro so I guess there may be a software issue?

    check on your iphone settings/passwords&accounts there are all stored passwords.

    oh, and check if you are using icloud keychain. if not, I suggest to enable it.

    Similar problem with an IPad Pro. I can log in but I keep getting logged out. If I tick the remember me box, it makes no difference, still get logged out and have to input my username and password again. Using an older iPad Air, no problems at all and running the same version of IOS on it.

    But if I've created a new password, and can log in OK on the iPhone, why would iCloud keychain make any difference on the iPad? I can't even get past the first hurdle using all the details that work fine on the phone?

    So in summary, using Safari:

    1, I can log in with my known user id and password from my iPhone
    2, I can then change my password on my iPhone and repeatedly log in OK with the new password on the iPhone
    3, But then using the same user id and the known changed password, I can’t log in from the iPad
    4, I also tried Firefox on the iPad and the same thing – username/email not recognised.
    5, I can't even request a Forgotten Password link on the iPad because my username and email are not recognised

    iPad is iOS 12.1.4. iPhone is 10.3.3

    I can happily live without the forum in question, but I hate inexplicable stuff and everything else works, except this one thing. Drives me mad
