Many people reported that the current version of KeePassX (0.2.2) crashes on the new version of MacOS X 10.5 alias Leopard. This problem is now fixed and you can find a updated build for Leopard in our download section.
Direct Download Links:
KeePassX 0.2.2 for MacOS X 10.4 and 10.5 (Intel x86 only) 4.6 MB
KeePassX 0.2.2 for MacOS X 10.4 and 10.5 (Universal Binary: Intel x86 and PowerPC) 8.7 MB
This hotfix does have a minor visual side effect: Some buttons are displayed as tool buttons even though they are dialog buttons. This is just a problem of 0.2.2. Version 0.2.3 will show the correct buttons and remove some other GUI issues on MacOS X as well.
Additionally to the MacOS X 10.5 support a fix for a very annoying bug in 0.2.2 was backported from the 0.2.3 branch:
Files which do not have an extension get no longer greyed-out in the file dialog and the correct extension (.kdb) gets now automatically appended to the filenames of new databases.
UPDATE:
Added an universal binary bundle, the first file was x86 only even though the link title said otherwise.
UPDATE II:
The downloads are not longer available. Please use the new versions of KeePassX instead, which are now fully Leopard compatible.
Hi, even though the link title says PowerPC the program won’t run on my PowerPC. I get a message that “You can’t open the application KeePassX because it is not supported on this architecture.
Thanks
Thank you 1000x times!!!!!! (for the leapard fix)
keepass is so cool.
Are you going to fix the broken Command-F search too?
Hi, thank you very much for putting the universal binary package out ( and fixing the main problem too!)
Thanks very much for this.
I do notice a small glitch – the sort order on entries always defaults to ascending. In other words, all of my entries always start with Z and go down to A. I can click the header to change the sort order back to A-Z, but when I close Keepass and restart it, it comes up Z-A again.
Thanks so much for posting this hotfix! I am ABSOLUTELY DEPENDENT on KeepassX – I could not live without it!
Keepass rocks.
Yeah. Thank guys very much!
I also depend on keepassx for living. 🙂
PS: Did anybody notice a problem with the Keepass icon in Finder?
KeepassX works nicely on OSX Leopard now. – But for some reason i cannot add it to the Spaces auto-selection. For example, i want KeepassX always automatically opened on screen 2. – However, when i select KeepassX it won’t add it to the selection. I am running OSX 10.5 german on a MacBook Pro Core2Duo 2.0 with 4 GB RAM. – Is this a bug ?
Awesome. Thanks for the fix.
I noticed same sort order glitch that #5 mentioned.
Thank you for the Leopardfix !! I love Keypass !!
Thanks for the Leopard Fix! Very fast after Leopard was available! Great job !!
Thanks Thanks Thanks Thanks!!
Quick turnaround on the Leopard fix! Many many thanks. Great Job!
I tried both versions and both crashed on startup under Leopard.
If I only could remember all those passwords… 😛
Any tipps what I can do?
(Thank you!)
Shame on me. Spotlight found an old version of KeePassX that I was not aware of and launched it…
The new version works! Thanks a lot!
Mine still crashes after I give it my keyfile and password, and then press .
I need help…I had a Sony Vaio PC where my original KeePass resides, and just bought an iMAC. all my passwords are in KeePass now and need to access from the MAC. I found the link to the MAC compatible KeePass download, and downloaded it, but cannot access my original KeePass account. Is this possible? If not I will have to rekey everything into a new database. I was under the impression the data resides on a server, so I thought I could access from anywhere the KeePass download is, as long as I have my master password. I will need to know this also for my husband who would like to access the database from his laptop. He hasn’t downloaded it yet (PC). thanks for any and all assistance.
@Bridget
The KeePass database is not on a server, but on the harddisk of your Vaio. Name is probably Database.kdb (the default). Chances are it’s in My Documents or something. Youĺl need to copy the file onto your Mac, or on a USB stick and use it from there. If you and your husabnd share the data, bets place for it would be on a network drive that you both can access. Otherwise, youĺl end up having multiple copies you need to keep synchronized.
Good luck.
Cheers.
Thank you R…I didn’t realize that. Duh! I’ll look for it in the documents and see if it got transferred with everything else. thanks for the file extension too. Thanks again.

ok, back again. I copied everything, program and all to a DVD, the USB stick wouldn’t copy it. Long story, but didn’t work. copied it to a DVD and loaded it into the MAC but I am unable to open the file. I think it’s there but can’t open it.
So I am resigned after hours of trying, to creating a new database, but I cannot enter any data. is there something special I should do to start entering? this is quite different from what I saw in the WIN version. I try clicking on Groups but that doesn’t work (in a new database). This is a really stupid question I know, but I’m stumped!
TIA

I can get KeePassX to run on Leopard, but cannot open my existing password file. After entering the password, the program crashes repeatedly. It looks like I could re-create all my passwords, but that would take a lot of time. Any advice would be welcome. Thanks.
This is my first time using KeePass on the Mac, so I don’t know if this is just the Mac version, or a bug, but when I generate a password, it does not show in the repeat password box. If I try to copy it into there, or type in there, the password then shows up, followed by what I have typed. But it does not show up when it matches. This is confusing for the user.
Very good! Thanks! 🙂
Awsome product, thanks for the fix. I freaked when it would not open and started thinking about all the passwords I don’t remember…You rock.
