In anticipation of porting my Verizon Wireless number when my contract's up on Friday, I was wondering if, when you synch your favorite websites (i.e. the New York Times and others that require passwords for logging-in), do the passwords and log-in names automatically travel with them (as they do when transferring data from an old Mac to your new one?

They're stored on the Keychain. If you migrate your Library they're portable.

Would your library be included in a global synch, or would one have to specify it during the process? Thanks for the quick reply, by the way!
