OS X V10.5 Leopard :: How To Copy Keychains
Apr 23, 2012
Re:Â 2008 MacBook Air w/80 GB hard drive, 2 GB RAM, MAC OS 10.5Â
I have little experience with MAC OS and Apple in general. Â
Is "S.M.A.R.T. Status | Failing" always indicative of hdd failure? The computer has been very laggard of late but has not experienced any data errors. This is primarily a traveling internet connection with limited LAN (data) use. Â
I was going to reinstall OS which would be the 2nd time recently. First time -~2 months ago- seemed to help but last week the performance took a gigantic hit. First I thought network but ruled that out. S.M.A.R.T. status got me looking in the hdd direction. Â
The only data/info I want to preserve is keychain related (passwords and networks and network settings/passwords and Safari bookmarks.) Everything else can either be reinstalled, is stored online or downloaded to other storage devices already. Â
What files-filenames/locations are involved and how do I copy them to another location.Â

MacBook Air, Mac OS X (10.5.8), S.M.A.R.T. Status | Failing

After I upgraded to 10.5 and went to my Keychain, I noticed that I have two Keychains labeled "login" (in addition to the "system", X509, etc). Both are the same with the same info and number of entries. I've saved a copy of my keychain, deleted everything and when it is put back into my user library, I end up with two login keychains. Went to Genius Bar at two Apple stores with no luck. Even went as far as reloading 10.5 (archive and install) with no luck. I would hate to have to manually enter all my keychain passwords again. I am now running 10.5.2 and still have the same problem. I have not had any unusual problems but worry that one day I may loose all my keychain entries.

I log into the Blackboard Academic Suite daily (online) to check my class announcements and grades. Every time I log in, I have to enter my username and password. This gets pretty old. Is it possible to have a keychain automatically fill in this information for me? Because that is what I do with all my other login sites. It hasn't ever asked if I would like my password and username to be saved, and I'm sure it's for security. I've tried creating a new keychain and putting in the information, but still no success.

I was wondering if it was possible to tell Safari to look in multiple or different keychains for login credentials. I have x509 certificates that I want to put in a different keychain from the default "login" one, but when I surf to a webpage that requires that certificate, Safari doesn't seem to want to use it.

I am trying to make a back up copy of Leopard on disc but the files don't show up when I insert the disc in my windows PC (running XP Pro). I want to burn a back up disc for my own purpose and unfortunately only have a dvd writer on my PC. Can someone advise please as I can't seem to find an option on my PC saying show hidden files etc, if that's the case?

Ever since I updated one of my work machines to Snow Leopard yesterday, I am unable to copy photos to the clipboard in Preview or similar apps. The option is grayed out. I usually do this to change icons, but I've had to use third-party apps to do this since the upgrade. I'm sure it has to do with permissions, but I'm not very well versed in that aspect of OS X yet.

everything is going well, and it seems to be working fine (there are a few things that aren't perfect... but I'm sure they'll get ironed out in the future)Anyway, what I want to do is burn a copy of the Installation DVD, just to be sure nothing happens to my only copy (I had a bad experience with leaving my Leopard DVD on a bus once... I was so angry with myself!)Now, I used disk utility, and now have a perfect .cdr copy of Snow Leopard sitting on my desktop.I have Toast Titanium on my MBP, and am just wondering which is the best option to make a bootable copy.

Would appreciate some help in trying to restore a copy of Leopard created using Carbon Copy Cloner. I created a bootable backup of Leopard, as I am installing Snow Leopard. I checked that the bootable backup I took of Leopard works and then installed Snow Leopard. Not really happy with the Snow Leopard at the moment and so decided to go back to my original Leopard as this worked faster and without issues. The thing is, I cannot work out how to restore my backup from my external drive to my Macbook. All I can see in the backup location are the main folders, like Applications, Library, System & Users. Is it just a case of copying over the original backed up folders into the main "Macintosh HD" folder and overwrite the new ones there following the install of Snow Leopard?

I'm trying to clone a new imac running leopard to an old g4 running panther.
They only have 2 different versions, one that will run on leopard and one for panther.
I've set it up and everything but it says "the bootability of the target volume cannot be determined."
Do you think trying to clone to panther using the leopard ccc version will mess it up?

I am running snow leopard on the 27" imac and for some reason when i try dragging files onto the USB that i have inserted it does not let me copy the files? It doesn't do that with the other USBs i don't understand why this one is not letting it copy. It reads it fine.

I've tried using the Leopard-appropriate version of CCC twice now for making a mirror of my MacBook Pro. The data is saved, yet the drive it's saved to is not bootable. I'm working with a friend who's used CCC with Tiger successfully in past. Are there any special tricks for getting CCC to make a bootable copy from a Leopard computer? The external drive I'm using is a LaCie d2 quadra, btw.

I can't copy and paste, drag and drop, or use spotlight on my macbook purchased in 2007 running mac os x 10.5.8.Â
I noticed the problem when using serato scratch live initially because it wouldn't let me drag and drop the songs in to cue. I was able to use the key board short cuts and moved on. I then tried to clear some items from my desk top to the trash can and was unable to drag them. I was able to open the desk top in the finder and use the file, move to trash option. The problem became unbearable when I was reorganizing a word document and could not cut and paste within the document. The commands did not work from edit either. I have found that I am able to cut but not paste in the mean time.Â
A user kindly pointed me to a link using the terminal to see if I had a tmp folder. I did but the date was from October of 2007 which is around when I bought the machine. I have run repair permissions from disk utitilty as suggested in yet another forum to no avail...hence reposting with my specific symptoms? Short of reinstalling mac os x, what are my options DOC?

Last night I got rid of Leopard on all 3 of my macs and did a clean install of Snow Leopard.
Among the little problems I`m having at the moment (even after upgrading to 10.6.4) this is a big one I haven`t been able to find a solution for :
I used Software Update to update everything and after the installation I realized the new iTunes isn`t working.

I upgraded my MBP internal hard drive to a Samsung 1TB and it crashed for the 2nd time (will never buy another Samsung). So this time, I purchased a WD and migrated my system to the new drive sucessfully. I just wanted to see if anyone knew if the migrate function simply copies files or if it copys sectors of the hard drive. Basically I just want to know if Mac Migrate will copy the crap from the Samsung drive that might cause my new WD to act up - or if that's possible?
