Migration did not do it for passwords

I transferred from my old MAC to a new mac mini. Everything looks good except passwords. When i pull up the password app, i can see the passwords but it does not auto fill for the websites. When i click on the password option in the website and login with my computer ID, there are no passwords there. Strange! please help.

Mac mini, macOS 15.2

Try the instructions in the section "Turn on Password AutoFill" of the following article: Use the Passwords app to create, manage, and share passwords and passkeys across Apple devices - Apple Support


Also, in that article is: "Learn more about Password AutoFill on Mac":
