OS X V10.7 Lion :: New 27" Intel IMac Keeps Looping To Enter Password - Can't Get It To Boot
Jun 9, 2012
I try and start my computer, it gives the boot sound, comes up to the password screen, accepts the correct password, gives a white screen, then returns to the password screen. I am running Lion 10.7.4Â Any solutions before I call and take it in to Apple?

I am running OSX 10.9.2 on a 2011 iMac. For as long as I can remember it has relentlessly prompted me to enter my password for this keychain and that keychain. How to do I disable this annoying feature?

Have an old MBP. Just installed lion on it today. Previously, the computer had no password (at login, I would just hit enter so essentially the password was nothing). After installing Lion, that no longer works, and now I can't get into my computer.

Everytime I wake my computer from sleep, I get a pop-up message asking me to re-enter my password for my iCloud account. I click "remember this password in my keychain" and hit okay, but it still asks me every single time. What gives?

All of a sudden, out of nowhere, I'm having to type in my password just to modify/change a file name or location. How do I get rid of this? I use Lion.

When installing apps through Installer (from .dmg disk images and .pkg packages), everything works smoothly until it asks me for a password. When I enter it, Installer goes back to the screen before it asked me for the password. When I click next, it asks me for my password, and the cycle repeats. I tried removing my password to no avail. I can install .pkg files from the sudo installer -pkg command. I dont know how to do this for installers that are in app form.

I am trying to uninstall Virex 7.5. I have got the Terminal uninstall command which opens Terminal. So far, so good. However, Terminal is asking me for my admin password but it's not allowing me to enter it. The cursor is not blinking it's just a solid black oblong - just bl**dy sitting there! Absolutely no response to any key except the enter key - then terminal helpfully says, 'Sorry, try again' What's going on? I just wanna get rid of Virex!!!

Yes I know other people have posted this and gotten the answer that you just put it ion anyways and you wont see it come up but it works. Well I do not actually have a password set so usually I just hit enter with it blank but when I do that in Terminal it says sorry wrong password or something until I hit the 3rd try and it boots me.

After I print, there is a task hpdot4d in activity monitor that shows 398% CPU utilization (Quad i3 config), and the iMAC really heats up.
Sometimes, I my print job - though completed - hangs in the print window.
I need to either manually delete the print job or sometimes have to Force quit hpdot4d in activity monitor.Â
How can I fix this once and for all..... Is there an HP update I need to apply, or should I just buy a new printer?Â

My imac takes my password and then the color wheel displays. The screen cycles quickly and then comes back to type password again. I have shut down and restarted the computer multiple times.Â

I trying to figure out why my macbook pro running tiger has started logging me out immediately after I log in, and what I can do to fix this.I am correctly entering the password (just in case you thought I didn't know the password) as it accepts it and logs in, starts to change the desktop background and then just as the Finder bar appears I am logged out and send straight back to the main login box. It does this for the main User (admin) account. I have tried booting in safe mode and this does the same thing. The Guest login does work however.

If I log off, put the computer to sleep, or restart, I have to access network preferences and enter the password before the internet will work. Yes I'm checking the box that says "remember password in keychain". What gives?

Every 10 minutes I get a pop up window that reads, "To synchronize your keychain on this computer, enter the password for your user account on..." then it says the name of my macbook pro. My problem is that I type in the password but another window comes up rejecting it, claiming my password is incorrect....which isn't true.

Just did "Archive & Install" and when I am trying to move my OLD documents to the new locations, I get a Password dialog box, and it will only move/copy/trash them once I enter my password. I have tried resetting "Everyone: No Access" and "<myusername>:read&write" from CMD+I for all relevant files and folders, but it still does this. This is pertinent to stuff such as ~/Documents ~/Pictures etc, (NOT ~/Library by the way).

Is it necessary to enter my iTunes password every single time I open iTunes? I understand the importance of entering the password if I'm browsing the store, but if I'm just playing around with my own library or ipod, why must I enter my password?

I have a 1GHz, 12inch powerbook running OSX 13.9 and I have a problem where my airport connection wont allow me to connect to my wireless router.
I can see the connection in my airport but the 'OK' button in the dialogue box to enter the password is greyed out—reminds me of a criticism Steve Wozniak has of OSX where options in the GUI are greyed out but without any explanation of why, which gives you no chance of solving the problem or accessing the option. How frustrating.
The wireless connection had been working fine, but what would happen is once a week or so this problem would happen. Unplugging the router and plugging it back in would fix the problem. But that has failed to fix it over the last couple of days.
The wireless security is WPA personal, the router is a Belkin and the broadband modem is a Dynalink if that helps at all.
(please excuse the use of my, instead of me in the threads topic - ha)

Safari will not allow me to enter websites with 1 passwords. When I input the password it reverts back to enter you password. I have updated to all of the newest versions and Safari is still not working. I am having no issues with Firefox.

Trying to figure out why it is that I have to constantly enter my password for my Mail accounts when sending and receiving. It's not consistent. All passwords are part of my keychain so I don't get it.
