A:

you do not have the same keychain program on iPad that exists in OSX. And it cannot be shared across the devices as far as I know. The individual apps have some control over remembering passwords etc... and there are a number of apps, one previously mentioned by another poster, that can be used to store passwords and links.

Thanks for the alternative to trying a means to get keychain into the iPad. Will give 1Password a try if can't get the keychain working.

You can use TapIN - It's an excellent app for that purpose.

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5813 is the FAQ for iCloud Keychain. It does require OS X 10.9 (Mavericks), and iOS 7 on the iPad.

Hi I struggled with this a little too. It only works in Safari by the way, so long as you have followed the advice above and have passwords enabled in settings. As soon as you tap in the email/login screen and your keyboard pops up. You should see AutoFill password, tap that and away you go.

Hope it helps
