When I go to change my password on a site, iCloud KeyChain suggests a strong password for example:
A123-bC4-d56
However, these suggested passwords sometimes don't save sucessfully to the iCloud KeyChain, and then once the password is changed you cannot get back into your accounts since the password is not stored successully and it is too complex to memorize.
Anyone else run into this?
iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.2), ATI Radeon HD 2400
I've also noticed that if you "change" your password on a site that you already have setup for use with KeyChain, and iCloud KeyChain suggests a strong password, the new password doesn't overwrite and doesn't create a new record for that site either.
So unless your write that password down, delete the iCloud KeyChain record, then log back into the site with your new password and have Safari remember the new password, you will have to use the Forgot Password link on the site you are using to generate a new password.
Same this happening here -- running Sierra....The bizarre thing is that it works perfectly well for my husband. He's been using it starting in the last major OS. Tried again today, and forgot to cut and paste.....arghhh.
Same issue! Yes, under Sierra. How long must this continue?
I also have this problem, very annoying. After resetting the password you have to go through the whole process again. I wish there was a recently suggested list so you could recover these passwords.
@Apple - fix it, that's embarrassing!
I’ve been experiencing the same thing.
