Resolved Apple Pay has been disabled due to modified security settings

[haralds]

I was trying to edit one of my cards and found "Apple Pay has been disabled due to modified security settings." I restored partial boot security to full (no more 3rd party extensions,) but the problem persists. Logout setting are the same as my MacBook Pro, which has no trouble. What else could it be?
I wish they had a freaking button to restore the defaults to make it happy?

Have you tried deleting that card and re-adding it?

Normally when it comes to stuff like that, Apple will choose the safest route so if there’s any risk it’s going to be blocked.

It does not allow editing at all, the Wallet is locked in this state.

I looked up some old Notes on this. The usual solution is to:
- Enable full security from System Recovery
- Toggle System Settings>General>Software Update>Install Security Responses and system files w. reboots in between.
None of this worked.

The fix was:
- Copy ~/Library/Keychains/login.keychain-db to a safe location
- Delete login.keychain-db
- Log off
- Log in. This will create a new keychain.
That fixed the wallet.
I avoided having to reenter a bunch of passwords and developer credentials by logging into another account (I always have a bare Administrator account on every system) and using terminal in "sudo -i" mode to copy the original keychain back.

Wow I’m glad you got it fixed. I’m always too scared to mess with the security settings on my Mac. The downside is if you don’t tinker around and break things then you don’t learn how to fix things
