And, of course, Keychain will sync across all devices if you allow it (System Preferences > iCloud > check box for Keychain). But you probably knew that David:)

To Sue and everyone else:

The requirement to change passwords every six months is no longer in effect. You can continue to use the password that you currently have or at any time you choose, you can change it from your profile settings.

Oh God... Let's hope we don't have to drag up that old topic again, but I see Charlie has calmed the waters With his recent comment here on the subject. What a relief.... and what a nightmare it used to be and worse when it did not work!!!
