[QUOTE="tape, post: 1793553, member: 178954"] Ian, I did as you suggested. After turning off icloud on each device (iMac, iPad then iPhone) I powered down each and restarted. Signed on to icloud in the reverse order, made sure all settings were as they should be and again rebooted all devices. I did not save any info to devices upon shutting off icloud. All my documents in icloud. When I check keychain access on my iMac via Launchpad, I do see the info saved there is indicated as being in the cloud. Clicking on different links on my iMac shows that the info in keychain is indeed there and is working. I started up an older macbook that I used for traveling before my ipad and after updating everything on that device, I also find keychain fills in usernames and passwords as does the iMac. However, when I try this on my iPad or iPhone, I get nothing but a blank space. I see a little key icon when I attempt to log on to sites in iMac or macbook, but no icon on either IOS devices. Settings/Name/icloud/keychain is turned on. Safari/autofill on. Settings/accounts&passwords the list shows the same as the passwords in my iMac safari/pref/passwords. All my devices are approved. I am at a loss. How do I get keychain to be used by my IOS devices? [/QUOTE]
