One Password Safari

Posted on |



Good morning viviana136!

If you are a long-time user of a third-party password manager, something like 1Password or the free and open source Bitwarden, you'll be happy to know that the way to transfer your Safari password to new Mac is just a matter of logging in to your password manager's account in your new Mac and everything should run smoothly.


One Password Safari
  1. You can use 1Password mini to create custom passwords. To open 1Password mini, click in the Safari toolbar and click Generate Password. Adjust the settings for your new password, then click Save & Copy to use your new password. Do more with 1Password mini.
  2. 1Password is one of my favorite apps all time. It’s hands-down the best password manager out there and makes my digital life much easier. So what does it do? It’s a highly secure and encrypted digital-vault that contains all your passwords and credit card details.

It sounds like you’re having trouble with your iPhone 6 passwords that you use when browsing Safari. I’ll be happy to help.


Just to confirm, are your referring to passwords that are saved via iCloud Kecyhain when visiting websites using Safari? If so, here’s a few reasons why your passwords may not longer be appearing:

If you don't see your iCloud Keychain items

There are several possible reasons for why you can't find your iCloud Keychain information:

  • Did you restore from an iCloud backup and then notice missing iCloud Keychain items? iCloud Keychain items aren't part of iCloud Backup because they already live in the cloud. To find your iCloud Keychain items in iOS 10.3 or later, tap Settings > [your name] > iCloud > Keychain and turn on iCloud Keychain. For iOS 10.2 or earlier, tap Settings > iCloud > Keychain and turn on iCloud Keychain.
  • Did you turn off iCloud Keychain on all your devices? If so, your iCloud Keychain is removed from the cloud. If you chose to delete the keychain items from your devices when you turned off iCloud Keychain, your iCloud Keychain is also removed from those devices. You need to set up iCloud Keychain and add items again. (If you turn off iCloud Keychain on all your devices and choose to delete your iCloud Keychain locally on all your devices, Apple can't recover your iCloud Keychain.)
  • On your Mac, did you use Keychain Access to reset your Keychain? If so, macOS deleted your iCloud Keychain items. Try setting up iCloud Keychain again. If you need to reset your Mac Keychain again, temporarily disable iCloud Keychain in iCloud Preferences before you reset your macOS Keychain

Get help

In Safari, the extension can’t be accessed from a blank tab or the Favorites page.

If you have an item in 1Password that’s not appearing when you open the extension, you may need to edit the item to make sure its website field matches the website or app.

If you recently changed an item on another device and the change isn’t appearing when you attempt to fill, open and unlock 1Password to sync your changes.

If you’re an iOS app developer, add the 1Password extension to your app.

If you still need help, follow these steps:

  1. Make sure you have the latest version of iOS.
  2. Make sure you have the latest version of 1Password.
  3. Make sure that you set up 1Password.
  4. Make sure that you set up the 1Password extension.
  5. Make sure that Safari > Advanced > JavaScript is turned on in the Settings app.
