In Safari preferences - passwords - only four of my many passwords to websites show. They were all there this morning. Does anyone know how this could have happened and if it's possible to retrieve them?
Thank you.
MacBook Air, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2)
This is what solved my problem:
OS: MacOS sierra 10.12.6
On my Mac -> system preferences -> internet account -> select iCloud -> selected key chain (key chain was deselected for me)
After this, i went through some confirmation, verification of code sent via txt message.
It synched, restarted safari
Went to safari -> preferences -> passwords
Everything was back to normal !!
Also, i knew my passwords weren't gone because I could still access the passwords on my iPhone via: Settings -> Safari -> Passwords
I saw all my links & passwords still available
Hope this helps someone's problem
should I put iCloudHelper back in the Caches?
No, there's no need. Is iCloud Keychain enabled on your other devices? What versions of iOS or OS X are they running?
Yes, it is.
iPhone 4S : iOS 9.3.1
iMac : El Capitan 10.11.4
OK Linc. I'll try this tomorrow and let you know what happens. Time for me to turn in now (it's midnight here). Thanks again for your help.
Go to Settings.. scroll down to Accounts & Passwords.click on App & Website Passwords.. enter your secret code..
My Safari passwords have disappeared. Is it possible to retrieve them?
