ICloud Keychain and multiple passwords

If I have many different usernames and passwords on the same page, how can I get Keychain to show me all the different options? Pressing "fill in…" fills only one of those passwords. On a Mac it's really simple.

Well ... I found the issue ... if there is data in the field, Safari does not prompt with the other usernames.
So you have to delete the field first, even though Safari fills it in, and it will then prompt with all the usernames.

ICloud Keychain - Suddenly Missing Passwords

Hi guys,
I've been using Yosemite and finally decided to take full advantage of iCloud keychain and Safari Autofill. So I've been saving my login details and different usernames for websites everywhere and it's been great. Until a few days ago. Suddenly Safari doesn't remember any of them it seems. If I go to "usernames and passwords" or whatever in Safari's settings there is now nothing listed? I didn't upgrade anything or change any setting that should have effected or deleted these things? I've also went into my Keychain Access app and I'm not finding passwords there either. Any idea what could have caused this? I haven't upgraded my phone or changed settings there either?
Any ways to get them back you think? I don't have a backup recent enough as I've just started doing this a couple weeks ago.
Thanks

Back up all data. Open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the Keychain box. You'll be prompted to delete the local iCloud keychain. Confirm. Then re-check the box. Follow one of the procedures described in this support article to set up iCloud Keychain on an additional device. Test.

How can I stop my iphone 4s from asking for my icloud, yahoo and other passwords all the time?

How can I stop my iphone 4s from asking for my icloud, yahoo and other passwords all the time?

As long as you share that AppleID for iCloud, you cannot. You are sharing a a single iCloud account and sync services. The only thing you can do is get a second AppleID and use it with iCloud - you do not have to use that new AppleID for anything but iCloud (ie. you can still share an AppleID for iTunes and App store purchases).
P.S. I am assuming you both want to sync your contacts with iCloud?

I deleted iCloud keychain and it is locked now.

IOS 8 - iCloud Keychain with Multiple Login Accounts for a Site

I use iCloud Keychain to store multiple login accounts for a single website.
When using Safari on a Mac, the last login account I used for that site is prepopulated in yellow fields. If I want to change the login account, I clear the field with the login ID and I see a dropdown of all of the login accounts available for that site.
When using Safari on iOS 7, the last login account I used is prepopulated (just like with the Mac), but if I want to use a different login account, I need to enter enough characters in the login ID field for Safari to know which login account I want to use and then it autofills using that account.
Now, with iOS 8, all I get is the last login account I used. I can't figure out how to autofill any of my other login accounts for that site.
I'm pretty sure I'm doing something wrong, but I can't figure it out. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Mike

Did you ever find a solution for this? I just noticed the same behavior.

With iCloud Keychain, no automatic password suggestion

Today I activated iCloud Keychain on my Mac and my iPhone. The system is generally working as it is supposed to, with one exception. On many sites (for example: outlook.com and yahoo.com), Keychain will not suggest a password. Is it because these sites are of the kind “that request passwords not to be saved”?
But an option is supposed to be present in Maverick as well as in iOS 7 to force Keychain to save passwords for these sites nevertheless. On Mac OS, this is: Safari >Preferences > Passwords > Allow AutoFill even for websites that request passwords not to be saved.
But on my Mac, as well as on my iPhone, these options have disappeared.
So, on some sites like the ones cited before, I cannot obtain a suggestion of password from Keychain (and have it saved at the same time), but if I type a password of myself, when I will log in to that site the next time, Keychain will offer to save the password.
Is this normal behavior? Where are gone the options to allow saving even when sites request not to?

Open Keychain Access located in HD > Applications > Utilities
Select Passwords on the left.
Type in the name of the website top right corner of that window in the search field then delete that keychain.
Back to Safari. From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Autofill Tab.
Make sure: User names and passwords is selected.
Now select the Password tab then remove the library website name.
Now login to the library website. Click Yes to save that data to a new keychain.

Impossible to delete POP accounts from iCloud keychain and SMTP not working

Hello,
After an aborted Mavericks clean install, I reverted to Mountain Lion via Time Machine and started experimenting with iCloud Keychain on Mavericks using trashable Virtual Machines.
I am hitting two serious problems with email accounts :
1. I turned on iCloud keychain ONLY on my Mavericks test installs (not on my iOS device)
2. First time I turned it on and used my usual AppleID, the test install retrieved all my email accounts (I have many of all types)
3. I could not make password SMTPS work on any IMAP accounts, so I decided to delete ALL email accounts from my iCloud Keychain
4. When you ask to delete an email account, it asks if you want to delete it from ALL your accounts, whoch is what I did (make a clean slate)
5. Of all the accounts I have, I have two old disabled POP3 accounts. I deleted them as every other one (including FB, Twitter, LinkedIN, Exchange, ...)
Every time I set up a new test install with iCloud keychain enabled, these two POP accounts continue to show up on the list.
Every time I delete them again from ALL keychains they disappear, but anytime I launch Mail they come back, and if I delete them again, and then I add a new email account they come back.
No way to delete them from ALL keychains
And BTW user/password SMTP on SSL for IMAP accounts does not work for me. It fails all the times on my postfix server.
So, my issues are :
- iCloud keychains seems unstable with email accounts (probably with POP accounts only)
- SMTP over SSL with user/password doesn't seem to work
Anybody hit the issue ? For me is a severe showstopper for Mavericks and iCloud keychains
Best
Luca

Restore it as new. Why wouldn't you do that when purchasing a used device from another individual?

I can't understand apple teminology - what is the difference between a keychain and a password - why does my mac keep asking me to type in the keychain - I don't know what it is or when it was created!!!

I can;t understand the apple terminology - what is a keychain and how is it different to password? When I set a new password it keeps asking me for the login keychain. None of my passwords work for it and I don't know when it would have been created.

A "keychain" is a secure database in which passwords are stored in an encrypted format to prevent unauthorized discovery of your passwords. Think of it like a bank safe deposit box in which you can safely store your passwords.
If you have a problem with your keychain then perhaps you have not changed the passwords correctly or need to repair your keychain. You might try:
Assuming that you are using a recent build of OS X, go to /Applications/Utilities and launch the app called Keychain Access. Go to the Window pulldown menu and select "Keychain First Aid". Enter your password, set the radio button to "Repair", and click "Start".

I forgot my icloud email and my password pls help me ineed my phone fix

i forgot my icloud email and password what can i do ? pls help me

Welcome to the Apple community.
Unfortunately, you cannot do very much with your phone unless you get assistance from the previous owner, they should either provide you with the password to unlock it or remove their account from the phone entirely remotely through iCloud.com > Find My Phone.

ICloud Keychain saved wrong password

I was just updating my passwords using the password generator facility in OSX Mavericks 10.9.1 and the password in the keychain is now showing "xxxxxxxx" when I select to show the password or copy the password instead of the complex password suggested by the password generator. Now I can't access my email and I can't reset the password automatically either.
Wish I had left my passwords alone now or used a different method of password management!

Do you use Time Machine and have a backup on hand?
If so, restore an older copy of your keychain from ~/Library/Keychains or just search for "Keychain" in TM.

HT204085 What is "local items"keychain and its password, how can i reset the password if i forgot the password

What is "local items"keychain and its pasword. how can i reset the password if i forget the password?

I just fixed the same problem. Here's what to do.
Click on the finder, then scroll across to the GO on the top menu bar, but also hold down the option or alt key while you do this.
scroll down the go menu to library and highlight library.
the library folder will open
go to the keychains folder and open it
in the keychains folder, then click and drag the blue folder that has all the letters and numbers for a title like "A2CEEE274-....."
drag this folder to the desktop
now restart your machine
when the machine restarts, you should see the keychains folder still open with a new folder in it that looks just like the one you dragged out onto the desktop
throw the one on the desktop out in the trash
You just reset the keychain folder so the new mavericks update could recognize it correctly, by the way apple customer support mentioned the reason this was happening was due to the update, and this is the standard fix. The apple keychain access pw should be your apple id or logon password.
Good luck!!!

Login, Keychain and FileVault passwords

If someone gets access to my machine and changes my password in Single User Mode, then logs into my account, would they be able to access a) my Keychain and b) my FileVault-encrypted home directory?
At the moment, both of those are unlocked automatically when I log in.

no. keychain p[assword is separate from the login password and changing one does not change the other.
and b) my FileVault-encrypted home directory?
no. and in that case they won't even be able to log in.
At the moment, both of those are unlocked automatically when I log in.
that's because you have automatic login on and you have your keychain password set to be the same as the login password and to unlock on login. all those things can be changed if you want.

Having trouble setting up iCloud Keychain in multiple devices

I set up for using iCloud Keychain on my iMac but am having problem getting through approval process for iPad. iPad demand either use of Security Code which I do not have or approve it from another devicer that uses iCloud Keychain. iCloud Keychain on iMac's preference says "waiting for approval from other device. clicking Detail tells me "Approval request has been sent to the other device using iCloud Keychain". Yet I do not see the request on my iPad. I am at complete loss. Appreciate any hint to get out of this mess.
