How do I get rid of the pop up asking for my keychain password that was never set up? Have I been hacked. There was a power outage last night. Help!

You have not been hacked.


By default, the keychain password is the same as the password for your login account on the Mac.

It's entirely possible that the keychain was damaged during the power outage.
