You can fix Safari Autofill on your M3 MacBook Air by following these steps:
1. Confirm Safari Autofill Settings
Ensure Autofill is correctly enabled:
- Open Safari and go to Safari > Settings > Autofill.
- Verify that categories like Usernames and Passwords, Credit Cards, and Other Forms are checked.
2. Check iCloud Keychain Sync
Autofill relies on iCloud Keychain to store and sync data:
- Open System Settings > [Your Apple ID] > iCloud.
- Make sure Passwords and Keychain is turned on.
- On your iPhone, confirm the same under Settings > [Your Name] > iCloud > Passwords and Keychain.
3. Update macOS and Safari
Running the latest software can resolve bugs:
- Go to System Settings > General > Software Update.
- Update your macOS and Safari to the latest versions.
4. Re-enter Autofill Data
Refreshing stored data can help:
- For credit cards, go to Safari > Settings > Autofill > Credit Cards > Edit.
- Remove the card and add it back.
- For passwords, visit Safari > Settings > Passwords to confirm your login details are accurate.
5. Clear Cache and Reset Safari Preferences
Fix potential data conflicts:
- Go to Safari > Settings > Privacy > Manage Website Data and select Remove All.
- Restart Safari and test Autofill.
6. Test in Safe Mode
To rule out third-party conflicts:
- Restart your Mac and hold the Shift key during boot to enter Safe Mode.
- Open Safari and check Autofill.
