Smart phones technical help.

Unread post by towny44 »

If there are any experts out there, I need some help to get my Chrome passwords working on my new phone. I managed fairly easily on a new tablet some 6 months ago, but after dozens of attempts on this new phone, I am stumped.
Sync is on but the new phone is not recognising the existing passwords, only the odd new one I have input on the new phone, although when I dig deep on Settings they are listed, but not when using chrome.

Do you not know a 10 year old you can ask? They always know this stuff.

I have now sussed it out, it was a simple issue, I have 2 google accounts and had put the wrong one first on the new phone. So I have now recovered passwords and bookmarks.

I needed help to post this, it took 3 hours before it was accepted, I think David's forum must have been constipated.
