You should be able to open the old keychain in the Keychain Access app, then drag & drop to the new keychain.


Two issues there: firstly, the apps seem to already have access to the *old* but not the new, which makes me want to drag them to the old one rather than the new. (But then I guess I'll have to do it for all of them as they're added as the new one is the default grrr)

Secondly I can't seem to drag and drop anything. I tried copying and pasting but then I have to give permission for each of the 1000+ entries (so it tells me) - even when I say 'always allow'. I'm not sure my sanity can take that;)

Do you use iCloud Keychain?

Yes and tbh thought that would take care of it all. An awful lot of passwords are in there...

Strongly tempted to clone the hard drive, reboot from that, mess around and see how much damage it does. What I *can't* do is lose passwords without making a huge amount of work for myself (bah).

Is there really not a way to give something permanent access to a particular keychain?...


Cheers,

Jason
