just bought a new iMac, but am having problems with keychain access which has not automatically transferred with Migration Assistant. My old computer is also an iMac.

Every time I try to delete my wifi certificate in Keychain Access, it continually crashes. Tried it in safe mode, still crashes. I cannot get my Airport extreme 5th gen to pass along an IP address to my Mac even though mac is connected to AE (seen via Network Utility). Thought that deleting keychain password would work.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm sure this is a very basic question, but having just made the Mac switch a week ago...I am lost. when I did a forum search, I found out how to access keychains, but I'm not sure if I found something particular to my question- please forgive me if I overlooked something.
I was downloading microsoft software last night and all of a sudden I began getting these little pop-ups that say "A keychain cannot be found for safari" with the option to cancel or reset to default.
how can I fix this so it doesn't happen?
Safari keeps giving me popup windows saying a keychain can't be found. It's only just started doing this but it's really annoying. Could it have anything to do with the fact I installed a new flash player? That's the only difference I can think of.Also on another computer it keeps asking for a password to access the keychain. It only does this on one user account though. Any assistance is gladly accepted!
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've never used OSX before about a week ago, but I am picking up on it well (I've used GNU/Linux for almost ten years so I know my way around an operating system). But I don't really think keychain access is working as it should...It's hard to explain. I mean, the way I understand it, shouldn't it be saving the passwords I type into Safari and auto-filling them? Because it only auto-fills some passwords. Paypal autofills, but my bank's website doesn't, and even this forum doesn't autofill. I have to type in my password every time I visit.
Is this working as intended? Is there a way I can get Safari or Keychain to fill in all passwords for me automatically? This is leopard on an iMac G5 iSight model. I did a fresh install like a week ago. Sorry if my question is vague but that's the best I can do with the amount I understand.
I'm able to look at all my keychains, except Private Encrypted Data. Any ideas why? I've used my Mac password on every keychain, but this one I just can't open.

When I start Safari it takes a while to get going, a window opens for a moment with a spinning wheel and then the program crashes. I'm using a mid 2007 20" IMac (2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor with 4GB of memoryrunning Yosemite.
The system error report which gets sent to Apple makes no sense to me, as I don't have any technical knowledge, but scrolling through the report I found this section which refers to something crashing,.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI recently created a Sparse Disk Image that I've password protected. When I try to open the Disk Image I get a popup window that has the words "Keychain Access" as the window title and the following text below that: "To perform this action you must unlock the keychain. Please enter the keychain password." Now, this is pretty straight forward (obviously). My question is, how do I (once I've unlocked the keychain and opened the Disk Image) immediately lock the keychain again so that if I step away from my computer my keychain isn't still open?

Having lost track of how I manage access to stored passwords, I'd like to reset every password stored in my Login Keychain, so that it will always 'Confirm before allowing access" and "Ask for Keychain Password."
Is there anyway to do this in a batch, or must I view/edit each item, one by one.

I had to log into my airport express to finish the installation and make sure all my software was as current as could be for the new owner.

Because of that, we cant get into keychain to retrieve passwords.
I have been looking online for a way to solve this problem.
The only solution I am coming up with is to delete the keychain folder and reinstall it.
I know only enough about computers to get into trouble.

Any clues? Ive already messed her computer up a bit by deleting a few things I shouldnt have.
In my keychain access I have the following:
com.apple.kerberos.kdc and com.apple.systemdefault both show "This root certificate is not trusted"
AND
Dashboard Advisory shows "This certificate was signed by an unknown authority."
I don't know what the notices mean (beyond the obvious that something is untrusted) nor do I know what to do about it.
I have an old iBook laptop. I want to move my keychain access passwords from that laptop to my desktop. I tried going to file > Export items in keychain, but it's grayed out. I tried about 10 different items and they were ALL grayed out. Is there a master file in the library (or whever) that I can just copy and paste into my desktop's library? I have nothing oin my desktop keychain, so I don't mind replacing it completely.

I've always saved my internet passwords in Keychain Access, but I have to send my computer in for repairs and I wouldn't want the technician to have access to important passwords.On the other hand, though, I don't want to get rid of them forever, because I can't really remember all of my passwords.Is there a way to export them so I can temporarily get rid of them and import them back once I get my MacBook back?
View 3 Replies View RelatedIn Keychain Access I have a number of passwords for WiFi networks I am never going to use again. (Hotels etc) So decided to delete them.
I can delete the entries with an iCloud designation (have to type in an admin password etc) but when I try to do the same thing to the same entry but with a System designation - as soon as press "delete" the application quits. Happens every time - no matter what the item is. For some reason the Application just doesn't like me trying to delete System designated passwords!

is it possible for an application to gain access to the WHOLE keychain?
For example, if a application asks if it can acess the keychain, could it read every item in the keychain?
Our internet provider just changed their email system from the Google partner program to something else. I made new accounts using the info that they provided and everything works well.
