ICloud Keychain Set Up (Mac & iPhone)

When setting up my iCloud Keychain, I get to the verification code screen on both my Mac and my iPhone. The number is correct to send the code to but I receive nothing on my phone. Is there a way to access my keychain without having to go this route?

Try deleting the account, then signing back in.

Keychain Setting for .MAC Sync.

Working with a particular machine where it will not allow me to check the box to allow .MAC syncing (it's greyed out) for login keychain. Tried resetting the keychain and first aid to no avail. Can't figure out why it's greyed out. There is another usernamed keychain (I assume from an older OS) that allows me to sync that one which leads to another question. Are you allowed to sync more than one keychain file over .MAC, or are you limited to only one?

As long as you know all your username and passwords, .mac etc... I would remove the keychain entry entirely and recreate a new one. Also make sure in your system preferences/.mac panel you have your proper account set. Let me know if you need more detail. -Digitol-

If I have forwarded all of my other email accounts to iCloud. How come emails sent to me are not showing up on my devices? (yes, iCloud is set up on iPhone/iPad)

I was in the Apple Store today because I was getting duplicate emails on my Mac and on my iPhone. So they encouraged me to just use iCloud. I then went to Gmail and changed my settings to forward my email to my iCloud account. I have received nothing on my iPad or iPhone and the emails are just going to the corresponding inboxes on my Mac.
What is going on??

My iphone4 and my ipad mini were synced to my computer, but now I don't seem to be able to see all of my content nor my photo stream. I did see everything there several weeks ago, so I know it worked. How do I access those from my computer. I can't find how to sign on.

I signed on to iCloud, but it only shows the icons for Mail, Contacts, Calendar, Notes, Reminders, Find Phone, Numbers, Pages and Keynotes. Where's everything else ?
What you've outlined in this part of the post is all that icloud stores for you outside of the backup. If you want to restore from the icloud backup you will then have for all practical purposes a carbon restoration back to your device if you restore from the icloud backup.

Syncing your device with itunes will then enable you to remove whatever photos you wish to remove from your device deleting them with the computer and not the iphone.

How can I see the icloud keychain information on my iphone?

I want to verify that that iphone has the keychain information stored from my mac.

ICloud keychain asks to verify my security code...

Hi everyone!
I just switched all my info from one iPhone to another, and when I try to turn on Keychain, it asks me to enter in a four digit PIN, and then says it will send a verification code to 1(XXX)XXX-XX38, which is no longer a phone number I have. I have looked everywhere to see if any of my Apple information still has that old number listed as a way to contact me (obviously through text). Everywhere has my newest number, obviously including the phone that I'm working on. I'm not really sure where I could change this information that I don't know where is listed.
Thanks for the help!
Amanda

If you have a device or Mac that has iCloud keychain set up on it, you can change the number as follows:
In iOS 8, tap Settings > iCloud > Keychain > Advanced. In iOS 7, tap Settings > iCloud > Account > Keychain. Make sure the phone number under Verification Number is correct. If not, enter another phone number.
In OS X Mavericks v10.9, choose Apple () > System Preferences. Click iCloud, then click Account Details. Make sure the phone number under Verification number is correct. If not, enter another phone number.
If you don't have access to a device with your iCloud keychain set up on it, you'll have to contact Apple support to verify your identity and get help completing the setup and changing the number: http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/.

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.

How can i continue my icloud keychain on my ipod if i no longer have the phone number from my iphone5c?

How can I get my icloud keychain to my ipod if I no longer have my iphone 5c

If you have iCloud Keychain set up on another device, you can update your SMS number via that other device in order to verify your new device. If you do not have another device available or you do not have an SMS capable number, you will need to contact Apple for identity verification in order to bypass that phone number authentication. See below.

I'm not receiving the verification code via SMS.
Make sure that you have a strong cellular network connection on your phone.
Make sure that your phone number can receive SMS messages. You can do this by asking someone to send you a text message.
Make sure that the correct phone number is associated with your account:
iOS 7.0.3 or later: Tap Settings > iCloud > Account, then tap Keychain. Make sure the phone number under Verification Number is correct. If not, enter another phone number.
OS X Mavericks v10.9 or later: Choose Apple () > System Preferences. Click iCloud, then click Account Details. Make sure the phone number listed under Verification number is correct. If not, enter another phone number.

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.

HT204085 Is there a list of passwords at iCloud Keychain? If so, where can I access it?

I've just set keychain while changing my twitter password. is it possible to recover the password suggested by keychain?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
You can only have a look at all the passwords stored in iCloud Keychain through a Mac with OS X Mavericks, using Keychain Access (in /Applications/Utilities).
To try to recover the password suggested by iCloud Keychain, access to Twitter, press the password box and you should see a button to insert the saved password in the virtual keyboard. Note that this won't work with the Twitter application

ICloud Keychain was reset

Every time I turn on the iCloud keychain toggle in my iPhone 4S 7.0.6 iCloud settings five minutes later it turns off automatically with a pop up saying your iCloud Keychain has been reset and your iPhone is no longer participating. What causes this reset and has anyone else had this problem? Any feedback or solutions would be greatly appreciated.

Mac and iPhone keeps loosing iCloud keychain

Hi
I have several iOS units and several Macs. One iPhone and one of my Macs keeps losing the iCloud keychain - which means I have to reactivate the access either via security code sent as SMS or granting access from another device.
Why is this happening?
/Erik

I had an Android phone which I sybnced Calander and Contacts through Google. When I got an iPhone (and Mountain Lion) I set up an iCloud account. I also plugged in my iPhone by the USB cable to activate it.
Now I have two and sometimes three sets of appointments and contacts! Can someoen explain what gets synced how and when?
I have:
"From my Mac"
(Gmail account is here)
"iCloud"
I can delete the gmail account with no problem - that seems to be only a sync setting. But the iCloud vs My Mac looks like two seperate copies of everything, and I want to be careful what I delete.
I plan to use mostly iCloud for syncing, but I do want to be able to plug the iPhone into the Mac from time to time to manage apps and trnafer music.
TIA,
Walt

In system preferenes, MobileMe shows, but iCloud does not, although I have supposedly set it up on my Mac. iCloud is set up on my iPhone.

In system preferences, MobileMe shows, but iCloud does not, although I have supposedly set it up on my Mac. iCloud is set up on my iPhone.

The minimum requirement for iCloud is Lion 10.7.5 (Mountain Lion preferred): the iCloud Preference Pane does not appear on earlier systems - the MobileMe pane appears on Lion and earlier but is non non-functional - you cannot now open or access a MobileMe account.
To make use of iCloud you will have to upgrade your Mac to Lion or Mountain Lion, provided it meets the requirements.
The requirements for Lion are:
Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
2GB of memory
OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
7GB of available space
To purchase it you will have to ring Apple at the number given at the bottom left of this page.
The requirements for Mountain Lion are listed here:
http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
It is available from the Mac App Store (in Applications). (If you are currently pre-Snow Leopard you will have to upgrade to that to access the Mac App Store: it's available in the online Apple Store.)
You should be aware that PPC programs (such as AppleWorks) will not run on Lion or above; and some other applications may not be compatible - there is a useful compatibility checklist at http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
