What is the KeychainMigrator

When starting up the Mac Pro I got a message that the KeychainMigrator wants to use the key holder "login". I have never seen this since we use the PC (3 years).

Is this normal or some virus etc?

MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Early 2013), OS X Yosemite (10.10.3), internet connection with WIFI

Hi wisewisbombom,

The keychain in Mac OS X is Apple's password management system for your computer. Your "login" keychain is created by default the first time you log into your computer's admin account with your user name and password.

It sounds like you may need to reset the password for your login keychain on your Mac. The resource below will explain how:

Take care,
