Q: key chain password keeps popping up after every restart

Hi, dear there. My key chain keeps popping up with request to enter password every time I restart my computer, the message is like: (application name) wants to access to the keychain. And there are many applications, so I have to enter many times the same password for different applications, which is quiet annoying. Does any of you ever encountered such situation and have a solution for this? Thank you!

MacBook Pro, OS X Yosemite (10.10.4)

A:

Back up all data before proceeding.

Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:

☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)

☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.

Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.

If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.

Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select

          Change Settings for Keychain "login"

In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.

From the menu bar, select

          Keychain Access ▹ Preferences... ▹ First Aid

There are four checkboxes in the window that opens. Check all of them. if they're not already checked. Close the window.

Select

          Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid

from the menu bar and repair the keychain. Quit Keychain Access.

If you use iCloud Keychain, open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the Keychain box. You'll be prompted to delete the local iCloud keychain. Confirm. Then re-check the box. Follow one of the procedures described in this support article to set up iCloud Keychain on an additional device.

    Thank you so much, it worked ! Seems that my password for Apple ID is different from my login keychain, and it caused the problem. Before I changed the iCloud preferences, my problem was solved.

     

    I really appreciate your detailed and step-by-step help. You must have taken lost of effort.
