Open safari and its preferences , click on passwords enter your admin password select the websites you don't want to delete and click on remove button , you can uncheck the box of auto fill user names and passwords so that future paaswords will be never filled up in the keychain access .

See this article macOS Sierra: Manage passwords using keychains

And open system preferences > icloud > uncheck the box of keychain , read the screen shot .

Hi,



Open the Keychain Access app located in HD > Applications > Utilities then select Passwords on the left.


Then type in the name of the website in the search field top right corner of that window.


Then right or control click that keychain then click Delete.

It's not Apple's fault that your bank requires your password be changed on a monthly basis. Passwords and keychains are the users responsibllity.

As annoying and controversial as those typical 30 day password change requirements are, the best way to cope with it is to use iCloud Keychain. It will offer to create random passwords and sync them across all your devices, so you never have to remember them (or worse yet, write them down).


To me, disabling Keychain is the wrong way to deal with that nonsense.
