Why does Keychain Access continuously ask me for my password whenever I log into my profile? It will ask me, it seems, for nearly every application that is running in the background. Also, it does not accept my current password, but rather my previous password, which seems a bit confusing. Can anyone help? I don't know what to do. 😟 Any assistance is greatly appreciated!
