ICloud keychain not saving updated password.

Hi All. Hoping for some insite here.
iCloud key chain seemed to be working fine for me until I started updating my password and using the pasword generator to change them.
First it takes updating a password on anyone of thie sites that I use two tries to sucessfully save. Then by the next day (maybe even sooner) that keychain just changes them back to tthe original. This id kind of a nighmare because 1. its incredibly annying that it does that and is not working correctly and 2. I've went throught the painstaking process of going into settings, copying the password and inputting into all my respected apps on my iOS device. No keychain has reverted back and I dont know what the encypted passwords were. I have to go to all the site and update passwords again to just have this happen over and over. I cant access any of my accounts.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
G

How do I know if I am set up as a Admin User?
The only thing in my keychain is certificates, public keys and network passwords.
Thanks for your help!

HT203783 Safari and iCloud Keychain not prompting for password

In Safari 8.0 (Yosemite) a prompt appears telling me to turn on iCloud Keychain to have a secure password suggested. I already have it on and all autofill boxes are enabled in Sarari. What is missing to have it suggest the password?

The way to check is to go to Control Panel and search for "iCloud". If iCloud appears (see first image below), double-click on it. This will be the iCloud control panel for Windows. If he is syncing his computer with his iCloud account it will look similar to the second image below.

Can i use iCloud keychain with my own passwords and not with what is assigned and stored?

Can i use iCloud keychain with my own passwords and not with what is assigned and stored?

My main concerns are:
-If I use iTunes on my main computer, will it then be available to Apple TV?
-If I use Apple TV to download will it be available to my Main computer?
-Can the Apple TV use a media server for storage over LAN (using NTFS Samab or otherwise)?
Basically iTunes feeds AppleTv with media either syncing (copying to it) or streaming live.
Media must be compatible with AppleTV.
AppleTV requires a proper iTunes instance running - it cannot access a NAS directly.
If you store media in a folder on a NAS and it's part of the computer iTunes library (just stored on the NAS vs internal/external drive), then when running iTunes makes this content available to AppleTV.
Data will travel:
NAS > network > iTunes > network to AppleTV
As the path is potentially slower than internal/external attached drive > iTunes > network > AppleTV, it may or may not work robustly for streaming.
If AppleTv is set to sync (it can also stream in this mode), when you purchase direct on AppleTV, the media should sync back to where the itunes library is stored (via iTunes) to keep things in sync and to allow you to backup the media.
You cannot drag/drop media to/from AppleTv across the network, nor can it directly access storage itself - iTunes is an essential cog in the wheel.
The majority of commercial 'in-built iTunes media servers' will not work directly with AppleTV as it has to be 'paired' with iTunes by entering a numerical code in iTunes and does not simply see 'shared libraries'.

HT204053 I just changed my Apple Password and icloud does not recognize the password.

I just changed my Apple Password and icloud does not recognize the password.

To change it on your iPhone you have go to Settings>iCloud and delete the account, then set it up again with your new credentials. When you delete the account from your phone it will delete any data you are syncing with iCloud (such as contacts and calendars) from your phone but it will remain in iCloud. Provided your are signing back into your existing account and not changing to a new account, it will be synced back to your phone when you sign back in.

How can I prevent Safari/iCloud Keychain from saving data in our password field?

We have a web-based management system where administrators can set and update passwords for individual users. While I love iCloud keychain personally, the problem we are finding is that if the user, once prompted by Safari to Save the password in iCloud Keychain for Autofill, actually clicks 'Save Password', then our page wants to autofill that same password for any selected user or newly added user (and since we don't allow duplicates, constant errors result).
So the basic question: is there a way in HTML or Javascript to set form fields - or an entire form or div - to be ignored by iCloud Keychain, even if they are username or password fields.
We know we could just tell all our Safari users to disable in preferences with a pop-up banner, but that would be unfortunate (and IE-like)
(If this is the wrong place to find this type of info, any clue appreciated. Naturally we've searched a bunch already)

Can I remove my iCloud Keychain from Apple's servers?
Yes. Follow these steps, starting on any one of your iOS devices or Macs that is using iCloud Keychain:
Devices using iOS 7.0.3 or later:
Go to Settings > iCloud > Account > Keychain and turn off “Approve with Security Code”.
Go to each of your other devices that is using iCloud Keychain and turn iCloud Keychain off.
Macs using OS X Mavericks v10.9 or later:
Choose Apple () menu > System Preferences. Click iCloud, then click Account details.
Deselect “Allow approving using security code”.
Go to each of your other devices that is using iCloud Keychain and turn iCloud Keychain off.
After you complete these steps, your keychain data will remain locally on your devices, but changes to your keychain information will not push to your other devices or the cloud unless you turn iCloud Keychain back on. If you want keychain data to push to all of your devices, but not to the cloud, turn on iCloud Keychain on each device as described earlier in this document, but skip the step to create an iCloud Security Code.

HT201609 keychain not saving passwords

Two days ago I called apple about an issue with my Iphone 5s. I was instructed to rest my network settings which I did. Now everytime I boot up or restart my machine I am asked to enter the passcode for the router. Additionally keychain isn't saving this password or any of my mail passwords nor my Apple ID password. I tried changing them but keychain still isn't saving the passwords. I've spent over 3 hours on the phone with Apple Tech support to no avail. The senior advisor I spoke to said he's never seen this problem before? So does that mean my problem isn't real or doesn't exist? There MUST be a solution. Please help. Now my Iphone and Macbook aren't working correctly.

Back up all data before proceeding.
Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select
          Change Settings for Keychain "login"
In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
From the menu bar, select
          Keychain Access ▹ Preferences... ▹ First Aid
There are four checkboxes in the window that opens. Check all of them. if they're not already checked. Close the window.
Select
          Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
from the menu bar and repair the keychain. Quit Keychain Access.
If you use iCloud Keychain, 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.

Safari/KeyChain Not Saving Yahoo Mail Login/Password information?

I have a MacBook Pro laptop, Mac OSX Version 10.6.8 and Safari browser Version 5.1.7 Snow Leopard. The problem is ... I recently changed my passwords on my Yahoo Mail accounts.   Safari will not prompt to save my login information for Yahoo Mail. It works with other web sites and worked with yahoo mail before I changed passwords.
My attempts to correct the problem have been unsuccessful. I have tried the following:
1. Ran Updates
2. Clicked on Safari > opened Preferences >clicked Auto-Fill all 3 boxes checked
3. Finder >Applications > utilities > KeyChain     I found Yahoo mail and removed the old ones.
4. With KeyChain open > Clicked KeyChain Access > Clicked KeyChain First Aid and Verify    No problems found
5. KeyChain Access> File > New Password Item> Typed in KeyChain item Name as https://login.yahoo.com and tried mail.yahoo.com typed in Information and saved.
I have checked the apple sites, the only thing I have found is what I did in #2. the boxes were already checked.
May be I am missing the obvious here. If there is a solution I would appreciate the help. ?

I'm having the exact same issue with Yahoo only on my iMac after changing the password. I've been trying to fix it since yesterday, and yes I'm updated. I also tried several fixes for the trojan. Not luck for me yet.
Corrections Completed for Safari 5.1.7:
1- verified all updates completed
2- deleted cookies for everything
3- deleted keychain access for yahoo account. Interesting is that after deleting cookies and keychain, the username and old password keep populating but it hasn't stored the new password because I never received the prompt to store.

ICloud keychain not sync

My iCloud keychain doesn't sync on all my devices.
I've tried to fix my problem based on this Apple link Get help using iCloud Keychain - Apple Support before I post this question. I did turn off and on keychain on all devices many times with no luck.
The thing is I could get the first sync on any device if I approve with my security code but then it does not sync. By approving with another device, the keychain won't sync at all. With both way, my keychain won't get sync or update after the keychain is turned on.
Any idea how can I fix this problem?
I use Yosemite and iOS 8.1.1. Thank you.

Also, it seems if I turn off all of my devices, reset the keychain on one of them, populate it with passwords and credit cards, it syncs that data to every device I add afterwards. However, once I add one machine to the keychain, it stops adding new passwords to the icloud keychain and nothing new sync.

ICloud keychain not syncing on 1 (a Mac) of 4 devices

I am trying to enable iCloud keychain syncing on four devices: iMac, MacBook Air, iPhone 5s, iPad Air. All devices have the most current OS and are otherwise operating with no issues (including Internet connectivity).
The iCloud keychain on the MacBook Air is not syncing; passwords saved on the MBA do not sync "up" to iCloud, and passwords saved on any of the other three devices do not sync "down" to the MBA. The other three devices work as they should. The MBA is running 10.9.2 and all other aspects of iCloud work (e.g., contacts syncing, notes syncing). All devices are on the same iCloud account.
I have tried the following with no success:
1. Added/removed iCloud from the MBA (many times).
2. Checked/unchecked the "Keychain" item in Settings>iCloud (many times).
3. Keychain repair.
4. Various networks in multiple locations, both WiFi and wired.
5. The steps outlined in this Apple support document (multiple times): http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4644
6. Resetting Safari (multiple times).
7. Various other non-iCloud specific troubleshooting steps like emptying Trash and repairing disk permissions.
8. Deleting the Ubiquity folder in ~/Library/Application Support (figured it was worth a shot).
Would greatly appreciate any suggestions.

That isn't an option, I can't see how to change the account associated with the iPad. In Setting->iCloud, if I tap Delete Account, it gives the dialogue "If you delete your account, all documents stored in iCloud will be deleted from this iPad." With buttons for Delete and Cancel only.
I'm ok with deleting from the iPad, because I've turned off the calendar, reminders etc. and kept them on the iPad. So I just want to be sure they don't get delete from iCloud.
And of course, we will stop being able to use the same contacts list, which was the main reason for using one iCloud account.

ICloud Keychain Not Syncing At All

I have a Mac, iPad and iPhone. Everything was working at some point, but now nothing is. I have iCloud Keychain turned on on all devices, but they all appear to be operating as standalone devices. Nothing I save on any device is linking to any other device.
I have already tried:
1) Turning off iCloud Keychain on all devices and then turning it back on on one device and then following suit with the others. It will SOMETIMES send some info over, but it doesn't keep taking information in. Anything saved on a device after that point is not synced.
2) Reseting iCloud Keychain altogether. Starting fresh saves Nothing.
3) Factory reseting ALL my devices and starting from scratch entirely. No iCloud Backups to question or anything.
The only thing I haven't done is to create a brand new iCloud account and use that instead, but honestly...if I really have to do that to get this working, Apple is severely broken.
Anyone have any input?

My problem is one of my devices occasionally stops syncing (usually an iOS) stops syncing. I have to turn off iCloud Keychain, then reactivate it and things are fine from there. The problem is there is no indication of any kind that this problem has crept up. You just end up with a non-synchronized passwords or credit cards and realize everything is out of whack. Hopefully you didn’t do changes on the out-of-sync device because then you just have to pray that iCloud picks the correct dataset when merging upon reactivation.
I don’t seem to have any problems with any other iCloud sync, except of course for keyboard shortcuts, which have been breaking with every new release of iOS.
Bottom line is iCloud syncing is still very much broken, nearly 5 years after being introduced. Progress is being made, sure, but nowhere fast enough.

Mail not saving my passwords

My mail program has stopped saving my passwords so I must reenter them everytime I check my mail. When I type the password in under my account preferences is disappears when I go out of that window. I have searched support and tried fixing with all their suggestions with no success. I assume I must either reinstall keychain or mail. If so, how do I do that? I don't want to reinstall system software if I don't need to. Help!
It is working fine on my G5.

Verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
Open /Applications/Utilities/Keychain Access, choose Keychain First Aid from the application menu, and proceed to repair the keychain.
If that doesn’t work, try removing the password entries from the keychain and letting Mail create them again the next time it asks for them.
If the problem persists, try resetting the keychain:
1. In Keychain Access > Preferences > General, click Reset My Keychain and proceed as requested. A new (empty) login keychain should be created and the old one renamed and removed from the keychain list, but not deleted.
2. You can add the old (renamed) keychain (stored in ~/Library/Keychains/) back to the keychain list by clicking the [+] button in Edit > Keychain List.
3. Depending on what the problem with the old keychain was, you may be able to move/copy password entries from the old keychain to the new one if you wish.

ICloud Keychain won't suggest passwords for existing Facebook users

I've been monkeying around with the icloud keychain for the last two days and it definately behaves erraticlay. Sometimes it will make suggestions on the first try. Sometimes I need to log out of a website and log back in for it to work.
Anyways my main issue is it wont remember or suggest passwords from within the Facebook settings for an existing user. It will suggest a password if you want to signup for a new account that is out of the question.
Ive cleared the keychain of any existing passwords for FB, is this something to do with FB's own internal security settings? Ive messed arrounf with those but nothing seemed to make a diference.
Does anybody have any ideas for a work arround?

Hi judysings and thank you to answer.
Unfortunately, I already tried the steps :
iCloud Keychain is not syncing with other devices.
and
I restored my iOS device from iCloud Backup, but my iCloud Keychain items are not there.
several times with no success. (I'm not concerned by the other steps.)
I even restored my Mac and my iPhone as new today... still no iCloud Keychain sync between them.

IChat not saving AIM password

I love the new iChat but it refuses to save my AIM password, any suggestions?
Thank You Much
Richard Brown

Hi,
When you opened IChat for the First time were those Start up Screens where you entered your details ?
If so did you add the Password then ?
Ifyou did not then the Password is not saved to the Keychain (and iChat cannot access it)
When you open iChat it will prompt you for the password in a separate window (this may or may not have a option to Save the password.)
If the pop up window does offer to Save the Password but does not then check you have Read and Write access to the Keychain (Home Folder/Library/Keychains )
(Do a Get Info on the File from the Finder's File Menu and check the bottom panel then edit if required)
If not, delete the account in iChat Preferences > Accounts and re-add it.
