Macintosh Keychain

2018-06-19T21:44:30Z

Kfrisk: /* Older Computers and Operating Systems */

== Keychain Password ==
[[File:KeychainIcon.png|200px|right]]
====What is Keychain?====
*Your Keychain is what stores your Macintosh computer's login information.
*Keychains are stored in the user's library under ''Keychains''.

====Common Problems====
*When a password for the user login is changed through the [/account/#url=/account/%3Fpr%3Dpassword%26pr2%3Dsync �鶹��Ƶ Account Applications page] the Macintosh computer will often lose the synchronization of your Keychain password and it will continuously prompt you with a message similar to this:

[[File:KeychainPrompt.png|400px|center]]

*Message will prompt often when logging into the computer and is also seen often when opening a web browser (e.g.[http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/ Firefox], [http://www.apple.com/safari/ Safari], etc), or when opening the Mail application.
*When the user tries to type in their current password, it will shake the window and reject the password.

==Solution==
To solve this problem we can force the Keychain Folder to create a fresh Keychain with the user's new login information.

===Older Computers and Operating Systems===
#Click on the desktop so you see ''Finder'' in the upper left corner.
#Select '''Go''' at the top of your screen
#For MacOS 10.12 (Sierra) users, '''Hold down''' the '''Shift''' key and notice that a new choice, '''Library''' is presented in the list.
#For Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion), 10.8 (Mountain Lion), 10.9 (Mavericks), 10.10 (Yosemite), or 10.11 (El Capitan) users, '''Hold down''' the '''Option''' key and notice that a new choice, '''Library''' is presented in the list.
#Click on '''Library'''. For Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) and earlier, an alternative way to get here is to follow '''Go''' > '''Computer''' > '''Macintosh HD''' > '''Users'''. Select the '''username''' of the user that is logging into the machine. Select '''Library'''.
#Under '''Library''' find the folder that is labeled '''Keychains'''.
#You should see several items in the folder. Drag all items in the folder onto the desktop. '''Verify that the Keychain folder is empty.''' The items on the desktop are now a backup of the keychain.
#Restart the Computer.
#The user should log in. If prompted with a Keychain window, select '''Create a new Keychain'''.
#Test to make sure it has been successful. Open a web browser and open the Mail application (if applicable). If no more Keychain messages are prompted to the user, then the Keychain has successfully created a new '''login.keychain''' for the user.
#If successful, drag and drop the backup of keychains into the trash bin.
At this point, the Keychain prompt should have gone away. To double check, try restarting the computer again.

===Newer Computers and Operating Systems===
#Click on the desktop so you see ''Finder'' in the upper left corner.
#Select '''Go''' at the top of your screen
#Select '''Go to Folder...'''
#in the URL bar, type '''/Users/username/Library/Keychains
##Make sure that username is '''their username''' or the account that is having the keychain issue
##You can press tab to autofill each section.
#You should see several items in the folder. Drag all items in the folder onto the desktop. '''Verify that the Keychain folder is empty.''' The items on the desktop are now a backup of the keychain.
#Restart the Computer.
#The user should log in. If prompted with a Keychain window, select '''Create a new Keychain'''.
#Test to make sure it has been successful. Open a web browser and open the Mail application (if applicable). If no more Keychain messages are prompted to the user, then the Keychain has successfully created a new '''login.keychain''' for the user.
#If successful, drag and drop the backup of keychains into the trash bin.
At this point, the Keychain prompt should have gone away. To double check, try restarting the computer again.
