    Thank you guys!
    Nice to see the new features and fixes trickling in!

  2. Doofus - 15. March 2008

    Wow you guys did an amazing job on this and the portable version is some really nice work. I’m thinking this is the best thing to sliced bread. Great job guys, really great job!

    Doofus: I agree, tried the portable bundle for Linux on Ubuntu 7.10 and it is really amazing.

    Cool! Thanks guys. Is there an option for automatically saving the db after changing something? Or do I need to use the automatic locking and saving while locking?

  5. bdmayes - 17. March 2008

    Grischa,

    There is not currently an option to automatically save the database after a modification has been made. As you said you can get similar behavior by setting it to automatically save the database on exit/workspace locking.

    You may also set a timer to lock the workspace after some period of inactivity. If you have the auto-save feature enabled then it will save every time the workspace locks due to inactivity. :)

    hi

    is there some particular reason why keepassx cannot be assigned to a single Space? it simply won’t appear in the list after adding it with Spaces Preferences, while other apps do.

    Great Job and very fast fixing of tracked bugs :) Opening the database from external media works fine again in OSX 10.5! :)

  8. Rick - 23. March 2008

    Woohoo! Thanks. KeepassX now remembers the window position (as maximized is how I want it to open.) That was driving me crazy. Awesome job. Keep up the great work.

    The only thing I’d really love to see next is a way to add custom fields other than default ones (like maybe I want to create a field called “pin number” for credit cards, “account number” for some other entries, etc.)

    How to Global auto-type under Mac Os X?
    I used to use this function under Windows…
    Thanks for your work,
    Emanuele

    Thanks a lot for this tool !

    LK14 > maybe because it uses the QT framework who’s not based on apple framework but is cross platform …

    And cross platform rocks !

    Thanks for all your hard work. I donated!

  12. osx10.5 - 1. April 2008

    hallo liebe entwickler, vielen dank für dieses tool… leider nutze ich für die alltäglichen passwörter immer noch wallet da ich noch nicht hinter das geheimnis gekommen bis wie “auto-type” funktionieren soll! könntet ihr mir weiterhelfen oder wird das noch nicht unterstützt und wenn, wann ist damit zu rechnen?

  13. ZYV - 1. April 2008

    Well, what about static RPM for FC6/RHEL5 ? It is even possible?

  14. Tarek - 3. April 2008

    You could use the binary bundle and copy it to /opt.

  15. Lee - 5. April 2008

    How about a step by step guide. i’ve tried to use the guide on keepass.info, but it is different

  16. Rob - 5. April 2008

    Can you note in the release information if there are compatibility issues with the Windows releases? KeePass and KeePassX are great tools for a cross-platform household.

  17. Dirk - 6. April 2008

    I also wanted to leave my thanks here for such a great new Mac OSX version of Keepass. Your work is very much appreciated.
    Thankyou!

  18. Dave - 11. April 2008

    Love the new login dialog…you guys are the best!

  19. Gandalf - 11. April 2008

    Thanks a lot for the great tool. Love the new dialogs and taskbar support. Auto-Type looks very promising. Just a made a donation, keep up the great work.

  20. nemoinis - 24. April 2008

    If anyone needs to compile this under MacOS 10.3.9 with QT4.3.4, I’ve provided a fix. See Tracker Bug #1950216

  21. Chad - 1. May 2008

    Thanks for an awesome update. I have been using 0.2.2 for a while now, and 0.3.1 provided everything I was missing (workspace locking, docking).

  22. Pusha - 3. May 2008

    Really good job!! :)

  23. mahuyar - 17. May 2008

    Thanks for the update. I can’t imagine my life without keepassx.

  24. Jeff Whatcott - 23. May 2008

    I’ve been noticing that this version is sometimes very slow when searching. Also, sometimes after I switch between two monitors and one, the window gets lost.

  25. LK - 30. June 2008

    how about some updated 0.3.1 maemo packages :) let me know where to send the 6-pack of beers!

  26. fReAk - 19. July 2008

    First – a great piece of software, good job, keep it up guys :)
    There’s just one feature I’m missing – I have copies of my password database on two computers and one USB drive to prevent data loss. Now sometimes single files get updated faster than I can copy them between the machines, so I would appreciate a database merging feature. The procedure could look like “if a password exists in only one file, copy it to the other”, “if there are two different passwords in two files, take the newer one / ask” and so on.

    Thanks!

    “Woohoo! Thanks. KeepassX now remembers the window position (as maximized is how I want it to open.) That was driving me crazy. Awesome job. Keep up the great work.”

    THAT is driving me crazy currently. I switched of my external monitor and want to repopen a keepass database and the window is just disappeared. Searching on Google brings two results with that issue – both with keepass as subject. Please change that implemenation.

  29. Rick - 2. March 2009

    Thomas, ever figure out how to get the window back? i cant get mine to show either.

  30. Rick - 2. March 2009

    Got the window back. Had to move the menu bar in display arrangement back to the way it was when KeepassX was closed the last time. Other apps seem to adjust automatically, not this one. Just happy I am able to see my passwords again.
