12" macbook password/sync issues

As I was trying to get Macbook air to sync with imac, I entered passwords and now keychain keeps popping up, wanting passwords. I don't want keychain or login computer passwords. How can I delete all passwords except apple account password?

I would like for this macbook to be a copy of my imac but I got stuck on the keychain/password issues.

iMac, iOS 7.0.4

If you want to transfer keychains from your old Mac, follow the steps below.


1. Go to the Library on your old Mac and locate the Keychain folder

2. Open this folder and select the 'login.keychain’ file

3. Control-click on this file and choose Share

4. In the list of options, choose any of the methods you like

5. After you receive your keychain file, open Keychain Access on your new computer

6. Select File - Add Keychain and locate the 'login.keychain’ file from your old Mac


If you have problems with keychain, take a look at this:
