keychain

UPDATE: Solved. Turned off the iCloud Keychain on my MBP. All good now. Hi all, Upon setting up iPhone 13 Pro today, I downloaded and installed iOS 15.0.2. The iCloud Keychain won’t turn off. Turned off my phone and that didn’t work. I do not want the Keychain feature to be active/on. Does...

Hey Folks, Having a frustrating problem! I can't open Finder or Keychain after the power was shut off for a couple of hours. I have tried several reboots and have also tried relaunching Finder and Keychain, it does not work. The other strange thing is that my usual home page does not display. I...

Sorry if this is in the wrong section. Right…a right pigs ear of a mess. I have tried to explain it as much as I can which makes it very long. I had an old mid 2009 macbook running Yosemite. The mac started to go (couldnt stay on for more than 20/30 minutes at a time). Because I was going to...

For reasons I am not sure, years of saved WiFi passwords are on my Mac under the System keychain, meaning they are not syncing to my iPhone over iCloud Keychain. I cannot figure out a way to move these items to the Local Items keychain, which is the iCloud Keychain. Dragging and dropping...

I have been using lastpass for several years (free!) but recently having bought a MacBook Air, I find the lastpass app lacking. So I tried 1password, migrated my passwords and I kinda like it. But it costs, about 40 euro compared to Lastpass. I use both windows pc's, iPad, iPhone, Macbook etc so...

It’s quite easily possible that I‘m looking at the wrong place, as neither MacOS nor iOS nor iCloud for that matter are getting simpler, but: there were excited reports about iCloud Keychain getting OTP abilities, about a year back... and I can‘t find any of this. Am I missing something, or did...

Just setting up a new Mac Mini running Catalina. Since this is going to be used with my TV, and won't have a main password, I don't really want to have all my login passwords, online banking details, etc. accessible on it! I have signed in with my Apple ID, but then tried to switch off all the...

2 days ago, waking my 2020 MBP 16" from sleep, it didn't accept my system password. I tried switching the input language as this was a source for trouble a while back, but it was no use - I was locked out of my system. So I reset the password via iCloud to the same password I had before and this...

I need to take my macbook to the repair shop to upgrade my hard drive. I want to lock my keychain so that all of my saved passwords are not available to the shop personnel. Most of my passwords were saved on Mozilla. I went so far as to delete mozilla but magically Safari has access to the...

Hello. I use Finder's "Connect to Server" to connect to shared folders on my local network. I have multiple shares I regularly connect to and they are saved to my favorites list. When I try to connect to them, the username field autofills but not the password. I have saved the password to my...

Fair warning, this is long but hopefully comprehensive. Please ask any questions you think might help. I am desperate for a solution at this point. I did find these two threads on Let's Encrypt's community indicating that others are having this problem with the exact symptoms that I am (random...

Hi our University has some websites with URLs like dining.x.y.com, library.x.y.com and else they all have that "x.y.com" part and they have different login passwords. when I save password for one of them, it changes for others because keychain thinks they are. one site and that is driving me...

Hi all, I have the iPhone 11 running iOS 13.3. I noticed some time back that I became unable to 'generate a new password' when creating an account in safari like I used to be able to do. It would show as the attached image shows however I am no longer able to do this. I do own a MacBook Pro...

I tried this post in the macOS forum, with no replies. Any thoughts over here? Thanks! :) ************************************************************************** I recently had my iMac hard drive upgraded (High Sierra, 10.13.6), and afterwards have had a problem with Keychain Access...

I recently had my iMac hard drive upgraded (High Sierra, 10.13.6), and afterwards have had a problem with Keychain Access. Despite several attempts to turn off/on keychain and iCloud on my iMac, I can't seem to get Keychain Access (and therefore Safari passwords) to pull my saved iCloud...

Hi, While accessing my Keychain App on my Macbook minutes ago, I found various keys named "RPIdentity-FriendAccount" of type Application Password, inside each item there is either a telephone number or an email. Access Control tab properties for those Keychain items shows permission granted...

I just installed the above updates, now Safari asks for my computer password whenever I use a saved password. I spend all day logging in and out of various sites, so this puts a serious crimp in my productivity. Anyone know a way to turn it back to the way it was, so once I log into my computer...

I'm on a mac mini running OS 10.12.6 and my wife uses an iPad 3. We share an iCloud account so I'm just trying to setup keychain not ICloud keychain. We have never used keychain in the past. Did research and created a new keychain and put a strong password on it, and manually put a couple...

Hello all, I have problems with keychain on my MacBook. After an update I was not able to login. It turned out to be changed keyboard layout but before I realised it, I have changed password in Recovery Mode. When I finally logged in, there was a problem with iCloud. After several tries I...

Is there a way to search Keychain passwords for a specific password? I know if I want to find out my password for GMail, I can go and search Keychain for "Google" or "GMail" and Keychain will find sites that match and allow me to get my password. But this is different. I want to find out what...
