WARNING - Sequoia update may lose Keychain Secure Notes

**Warning** A week or so ago, I updated from Sonoma to Sequoia, which introduces a new Passwords app and stops Keychain Access having new Secure Notes added. For various reasons, I'm a big user of Keychain Acces Secure Notes After updating, I had a feeling that some Secure Notes were missing and others were old versions. Then I noticed that a Secure Note I know I had used a few weeks before updating was no longer present. Dug around in various backups and snapshots and found a login keychain which was dated just before I updated. This had 519 Secure Notes but after the update to Sequoia, Keychain Access showed only 322!! The update to Sequoia had "lost" 197 Secure Notes, over 1/3 - no idea what happened or where they went, certainly not in the new Passwords app !!! If you are a big user of Keychain Access Secure Notes, make sure you save a backup of the keychain before updating to Sequoia. **Transfer of Secure Notes** Currently, Apple's solution is to copy/paste Keychain Secure Notes to the Notes app and lock them. Not that this is practical if you have 100s of Keychain Secure Notes as I do. Apple currently offer no Secure Notes bulk migration. **Miln Keysafe tool** I was eventually pointed to the Miln Keysafe tool. Not ideal for many users as it runs under Terminal and only does half the job. It does extract Keychain Secure Notes to text files but it is then necessary to use Automator/Applescript to add the file name to the first line of the txt file before importing into Notes. I haven't yet managed to get this right … yet.
