iCloud Keychain doesn't sync

Hi there, here is my problem :


I use iCloud Keychain on my MacBook Pro and on my iPhone for a few months now with no problem at all. But I just noticed that in Safari on my iPhone, there are no memorised passwords anymore, I don't know why and since when.


I tried to disable / enable iCloud Keychain on both Mac and iPhone, with no result : any password recorded on a machine won't go to the other.


Any idea ?

Hi judysings and thank you to answer.


Unfortunately, I already tried the steps :


iCloud Keychain is not syncing with other devices.


and


I restored my iOS device from iCloud Backup, but my iCloud Keychain items are not there.


several times with no success. (I'm not concerned by the other steps.)


I even restored my Mac and my iPhone as new today... still no iCloud Keychain sync between them.

Hi there ! So I have news about my problem about iCloud Keychain synchronization : it doesn't work on my new iPhone 6 neither. Crab. Hoped it was just about my old iPhone 4 but no...


So it still works on my Mac, but again, nothing comes up on my iPhone 6 : no password, no wifi key, no credit card... (All the other iCloud stuffs do sync : contacts, notes, everything else.)


Losing hope.

I live in a world of pain - the keychain does simply not sync - I wasted hours of my life trying to get this inferior product to work!!!

I dont need another knowledgebase article with a work around - fix the keychain instead - it is broken!!!!!!!!


"Deactive Iclould on all computers and then I am supposed to...., ..."

forget it - fix the kechain!!!

fix the keychain - whaat a world of pain!!!!!!!


How much time I already wasted with all the apple services that simply do not get fixed!!!!!

Instead Administrators delete posts that point that out! From a moral standpoint quite questionable.... :-(

I also have this problem. I am literally wasting my time fixing this thing on my own. The knowledgebase is unhelpful. Ever since this re-design of iOS, the problems getting worst. I remember having trusted everything to Apple Services back from my first iPhone in 2010. The iOS 6 was the last stable iOS version for me. I don't know how Apple is focusing now. All this publicity is just facade. This is not Apple I've known and love.


Many iCloud problems exists very long already. They've introduced features after features but fixes to bugs are very little. I am not a bug-hunter myself but I could easily find bugs in iOS 8. How come everything goes out of sight from a Apple QC? What's with all the money Apple, hire the best ones please!
