How to Securely Store and Retrieve Your Passwords in Chrome
Are you tired of forgetting your passwords or constantly having to reset them? Look no further than Google Chrome’s password manager. With this feature, you can securely store and retrieve all of your passwords for various websites and applications.
Enabling Chrome’s Password Manager
To start using Chrome’s password manager, first ensure that it is enabled. To do so, go to the three dots in the top right corner of Chrome and select “Settings.” From there, scroll down to “Autofill” and click on “Passwords.” Toggle the switch next to “Offer to save passwords” so that it turns blue. Now you’re ready to start saving your passwords.
Saving Your Passwords
When you enter a username and password on a website or application, Chrome will prompt you with a pop-up asking if you want it to save your login information. Click “Save” if you’d like for Chrome to remember these details for future use. You can also manually add login information by going back into the password settings menu and selecting “Add.”
Retrieving Your Passwords
If you need to retrieve a saved password, simply go back into the password settings menu mentioned earlier and look for the website or application where the login information is stored. Click on the eye icon next to the username field, enter your computer’s admin password if prompted, and voila. Your saved password will be revealed.
Ensuring Security
Of course, with any tool that stores sensitive information like passwords, security is a top concern. Luckily, Chrome offers several measures to keep your data safe. You can set up a master password that must be entered before viewing any saved passwords. Additionally, Chrome will only fill in saved login information on websites with URLs that match exactly what was saved – so be wary of phishing scams or fake websites.
In conclusion, Chrome’s password manager is a convenient and secure way to store and retrieve your login information. By following these simple steps, you can save yourself time and hassle while also keeping your data safe.

Import bookmarks, history, and passwords in Safari on Mac
If Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox is your default browser, you can automatically import your bookmarks, history, and passwords when you first start using Safari, or manually import them later.
You can also import bookmarks that were exported in HTML format from Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, and some other web browsers. And you can import passwords that were exported to a CSV file from a password app or another browser.
Imported bookmarks appear after your existing bookmarks.
Imported history appears with your existing history.
Imported passwords go into your iCloud Keychain, so you can autofill sign-in information on websites.
Open Safari for me
Automatically import from Chrome or Firefox
If this is the first time you’ve opened Safari after using Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox, a message at the bottom of the start page asks you if you want to keep imported items.
Select an option:
Keep your imported items: Safari keeps your imported bookmarks, history, and passwords from Chrome and Firefox.
Remove your imported items: Safari removes your imported items.
Decide later: Return to the start page and import the items at another time. To see the start page, choose Bookmarks > Show Start Page.
Manually import items from Chrome or Firefox
You can do this any time after you start using Safari, even if you imported items already.
You must have Chrome or Firefox installed on your Mac to import.
Select the items you want to import.
Click Import.
Import a bookmarks file
Select the HTML file to import.
After you import bookmarks, they appear in the sidebar below Bookmarks in a new folder whose name begins with “Imported” and ends with the date.

If a password you’re importing doesn’t match a password you’ve saved to your Mac, you can see the related account, user name, and password saved to your Mac, then choose which one to keep. See At least one password wasn’t imported .
Click Delete “ filename .csv” to protect the security of your accounts.
WARNING: The CSV file is not encrypted, and anyone reading the file can see your passwords.

The exported file is called “Safari Bookmarks.html.”
To use the exported bookmarks in another browser, import the file named “Safari Bookmarks.html.”

Tips & Tricks
Troubleshooting, how to import saved passwords from safari to chrome.

Planning to switch to Google Chrome as your preferred web browser on your Mac? If so, you’ll be relieved to know that importing your saved passwords from Safari to Chrome is a lot easier than you think.
Safari is the default web browser on macOS devices, similar to how Microsoft Edge is on Windows. Most people hesitate to switch to a different browser, just because they’re worried about losing all their browsing data. However, that’s not an issue at all anymore considering most web browsers today allow you to import bookmarks, saved passwords, autofill data, etc. in a matter of seconds.
Interested in learning how you can seamlessly make the switch? Look no further, because in this article, we’ll be discussing exactly how you can import saved passwords from Safari to Google Chrome.
Importing browsing data such as bookmarks, saved passwords, autofill information, etc. is a fairly simple and straightforward procedure in Google Chrome. Make sure you’ve installed the latest version of Chrome on your Mac before you go ahead with the procedure.

That’s pretty much all there is to it. Now you know how to import saved passwords from Safari to Google Chrome.
Although we were focusing on saved passwords in this article, you can use the same procedure to import other browsing data such as favorites, bookmarks, autofill data, search history and more from Safari. Just make sure to check the respective boxes while importing and you’re set.
One of the many reasons why Safari users might want to switch to Google Chrome is because of the robust password manager feature that’s baked into the web browser. If you’re switching to Firefox instead, you won’t be able to automatically import your Safari passwords, since Firefox lacks the Keychain integration that Chrome has.
We hope you were able to import your saved passwords from Safari to Chrome without any issues. What do you think about the automatic import feature that’s available on most modern-day web browsers? Make sure to share your thoughts and experience in the comments section down below.

Please delete this page. It’s just plain wrong information.
This simply doesn’t work. I have the latest version of chrome and bookmarks/favorites is the only option that comes up to import. Not passwords.
I just imported Bookmarks from Safari to Chrome, through Firefox: I imported Safari to Firefox, and then Firefox to Chrome:
Open FireFox -> Setting -> Privacy & Security -> Scroll down to “Saved Logins” under Logins and Password -> clicked on the 3 dots on the upper right “. . .” and then “Import from Another Browser” and was able to select Safari.
That said, it got the bookmarks to Chrome but didn’t bring the saved logins or any autofill with it.
Unfortunately, your Windows screenshots do not reflect the Mac experience. The only way to get Safari bookmarks into Chrome is to first export them to a location on your computer (such as the Desktop) and them import them (as an HTML file) into Chrome. Currently there is no way to import passwords or other Safari functionality into Chrome on a Mac. (In both Catalina and Big Sur)
In addition one of your screenshots mistakenly highlights “Downloads” instead of “Bookmarks”.
If you’re going to provide instructions please verify them before posting.
I don’t have Safari as an option, only FireFox. How do we solve that?
Didn’t work for me. The “Import bookmarks and settings” window did not list Safari as a selection option.
Safari wasn’t listed for me either.
Safari is not a choice under “import bookmarks and settings” – only Firefox was when I tried (and all of my saved passwords are in Safari) – This does not work :(
The imported bookmarks go into a folder “imported from Safari.” I delete all the Chrome bookmarks, but still have my imported bookmarks all in this new subfolder.
I can obviously rename that to “Safari’ or “imported” or whatever. I cannot find how to REPLACE this into the main bookmark bar though. That is, I really want the Chrome bookmark Favorites bar to look like the existing Safari Favorites bar.
What am I missing???
