    Can chrome make use of keychain passwords

    Is there a way that MacOS can fill in passwords in Chrome? I don't really want to export my passwords to Chrome if I can avoid it, as I would rather not have all my passwords in my iCloud and Google account. (I have to use Chrome for Work, but use Safari for most other things). If I did decide...

    Transfer WiFi Passwords from "System" keychain to "Local Items" (aka, iCloud) Keychain

    For reasons I am not sure, years of saved WiFi passwords are on my Mac under the System keychain, meaning they are not syncing to my iPhone over iCloud Keychain. I cannot figure out a way to move these items to the Local Items keychain, which is the iCloud Keychain. Dragging and dropping...

    System password changing itself?! keychain issue

    2 days ago, waking my 2020 MBP 16" from sleep, it didn't accept my system password. I tried switching the input language as this was a source for trouble a while back, but it was no use - I was locked out of my system. So I reset the password via iCloud to the same password I had before and this...
