Help: "Transparent network proxy for Apple system services wants to use the “login” keychain."

This signin prompt popup happens sporadically after upgrading from Big Sur to Monterey.

Any ideas about this particular persistent keychain login request and how to resolve? There's several past posts with the same inquiry but none are enlightening as far as I can tell.

If I click 'cancel' it pops up 3 more times and, if cancelled each time, the prompt goes away but not forever. So, 4 persistent popups one after the other.


Here's a snapshot of keychain keyword "transpare" search:There is 4 instances related to "com.apple.mobileactivationd". I have no idea what that is.

I do have an iphone but they do not sync with one another and I don't use icloud.


Searching keychain for "proxy" result is below, (Dec 31 modifications.)



I did enter my password a few times and it went away but it appears again later. Seems arbitrary. BTW my profile should say:

27" IMAC 2020, T2, MONTEREY 12.6.2

iMac Line (2012 and Later)

I keep getting different popups asking to use the "login" keychain and asking for the keychain password. Sharingd, Transparent network proxy and others. My Default Keychains login is already unlocked in the Keychain Access menu. How do I stop this.

BTW, I 'unlocked' the login keychain icon and the prompt stopped. So I guess that's a fix. :shrug:


@Neil22R- I should do what in safe mode specifically? Do you have information as to what the "transparent network proxy" is because I don't have any proxies in my network settings. So not sure if it is an Apple system process. Do I need to worry about it?
