El Capitan login problems

have had many issues with El Capitan. In the end wiped MacBook clean and reinstalled El Capitan. However keychain issues still persisted, so I restarted. Now cannot even login as it refuses to recognise password.


this is turning into a absolute nightmare. 2 days wasted and nothing from Apple on the issues.


anybody help ?


MAny thanks.

Well the solution is rather drastic, but in effect I had to reinstall El Capitan, but at the keychain option did NOT activate it.


COntinue through to rebuild and add passwords as normal, again not using keychain. The advice was, do not use keychain, do not activate it. I've since been able to access my yahoo mail. Everything works ok.


you you can read what you want into the advice I was given, but my interpretation (after a frank discussion with the apple guy) was not to use it.
