Hi Danaenay,


From what you described in your original post, here is what we recommend: If iCloud Keychain won't turn on or sync - Apple Support


Next, we’d like to show you how to perform the recommended troubleshooting steps via the link above. Please click to open the link, then read through and try the steps in the applicable subheadings below.


1) View the passwords stored in iCloud Keychain

2) If you don't see your iCloud Keychain items

3) If iCloud Keychain is on, but Safari won't save or autofill your account information

4) If Safari won't save your password for a website

5) If you didn't receive a verification code or need to update your phone number


The reason why we are recommending the steps above is because they will show you what to do if iCloud Keychain is not syncing as expected with your other devices.


If you’re still experiencing the same issue, contact the community for more help.


Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities.


Cheers!
