#MAC KEYCHAIN ACCESS POPIP HOW TO#
Here’s how to delete the old Keychain and create a new one: Of course, you’ll lose all the other passwords that were on that old Keychain, so you’ll have to type in passwords (such as on a website in Safari) the next time you visit them.
If by chance you don’t remember your old password, then instead you need to delete the old Keychain and create a new one.
Click the OK buttonĪnytime you get a pop-up box asking for your Keychain password, you should click the Always Allow button if that button is showing.

Type in your original password, and then type the new password in (twice). Click the menu item “Edit” then “Change Password for Keychain “login”. Second way (reset the Keychain password): If there’s an error, you’ll see it in the window and you’ll be given the option to Repair (instead of Verify) your Keychain(s). Type in your password in the field, and then click the Start button. Click the menu “Keychain Access” then the menu item “Keychain First Aid”. Click the search icon (looks like a little magnifying glass) at the top-right of your screen, and type “Keychain Access” and press your Enter key to open the Keychain Access window. Regardless, the solution is to re-synchronize your Mac account password and your Keychain password. It could also happen if your Mac account password was changed in some other way. However, the Keychain password didn’t change, and still uses your old Mac account password. You change your Apple ID password, which changes your Mac account password. Your Mac user account password is tied to your Apple ID account. Most of the time, this all happens behind the scenes, and you don’t see this type of screen. That feature itself is locked by the Keychain password, which is usually the same as your login account password (the password you type to login to your user account on the Mac). The Keychain gives out the correct password for applications that need it. “Keychain” is just the Mac’s word for the feature that collects and saves all the passwords you use on your computer. I don’t know what Keychain is and I can’t get to my desktop. After I log into my computer, I get this message.
