Exporting (iCloud) Keychain and Safari credentials to a CSV file

Update (October 2021)

Exporting password + one-time code data from iCloud Keychain is now officially supported in macOS Monterey and Safari 15 (for Monterey, Big Sur, and Catalina). You can access it in the Password Manager’s “gear” icon (System Preferences > Passwords on Monterey, and Safari > Passwords everywhere else), or via the File > Export > Passwords... menu item). You shouldn't need to hack up your own exporter anymore.

Original, Obsolete Content (2014)

After my dad died, I wanted to be able to have access any of his online accounts going forward. My dad was a Safari user and used iCloud Keychain to sync his credentials across his devices. I don’t want to have to keep an OS X user account around just to access his accounts, so I wanted to export his credentials to a portable file.

macOS 10.12 Sonoma and Up Setup

Most things should work in newer versions of macOs with slight tweaks.

Custom recipe to get macOS 10.12 Sierra running from scratch, setup applications and developer environment. This is very similar (and currently mostly the same) as my 10.11 El Capitan setup recipe and 10.10 Yosemite setup recipe. I am currently tweaking this for 10.12 Sierra and expect to refine this gist over the next few weeks.

I use this gist to keep track of the important software and steps required to have a functioning system after a semi-annual fresh install. I generally reinstall each computer from scratch every 6 months, and I do not perform upgrades between releases.

This keeps the system performing at top speeds, clean of trojans, spyware, and ensures that I maintain good organizational practices for my content and backups. I highly recommend this.

'''amfid_patch.py - Pedro José Pereira Vieito © 2016
    This script can patch macOS 10.12.2 amfid daemon on memory 
    to allow arbitrary entitlements in Developer ID signed binaries.
    
    Killing amfid will make the patch disapear:
    $ sudo kill -9 `pgrep amfid`
    
    You must run the script as a root (sudo) and with SIP disabled.

How to download and view legacy documentation from Apple (no need to sign in to your dev account)

1. Download the docset index XML.
2. Find the docset you want (there are some with URL https://apple.com/none.dmg; ignore them - you will find them again further down the file with a working URL).
3. Download the dmg. It's probably around a gigabyte or so.
4. "Install" the .pkg file somewhere on your disk. If you don't trust the installer, do it manually:
   1. Find the largest file, named Payload, and extract it using The Unarchiver.
   2. This creates a new, even larger file, probably named Payload-1.
   3. Extract Payload-1 using The Unarchiver.
5. After many minutes of extracting, we have our .docset file.
