Keychain and Safari are not syncing

Safari saved passwords disappeared. Keychain Access shows a long list of passwords. Keychain Access is not linked to iCloud. Is there a way to get Keychain to talk to Safari prefs? Many thanks.

Hi bettercallsaul,


We apologize if we are misunderstood your question. To get Keychain to talk with Safari, you will need to turn on iCloud Keychain.


Set up iCloud Keychain


Reach back out if you need us.



Take care!

Hello bettercallsaul,


Thank you for posting in Apple Support Communities.

 

We’ll be happy to see if we can help with Keychain. You didn’t mention what troubleshooting you have tried. So, if you have seen and tried these steps you can skip them. 


A good starting place is making sure your Mac is updated to the latest macOS 11.4. If needed, see How to update the software on your Mac.


Take a look at If iCloud Keychain won’t turn on or sync, this has some really good steps to try.


Let us know if you need help.


Cheers!
