Computer in the shop...hard drive alternatives
THE password we agreed on yesterday and you registered does not work when a sign drops
down asking for a "keychain password".
_______
Keychain access password issues often arrise when a user changes the password of their computer but does not unlock the login keychain within keychain access. It's more of Apple's fault for a poor warning system. What we are left with is a constant reminder that the old password is still required.
I would suggest deleting the login keychain (seeing how your computer is so new) and restarting. You can do this by going into Users/yourusername/Library/Keycahins/...then deleting the loginkeychain file then restarting.
Considering the level of newness that your at, you may have trouble following the directions. It's not hurting anything to leave it the way it is until we meet again after your trip. Just an annoyance.
The AppleCare phone support line can also help you with the issue over the phone as well. 1-800-MY-APPLE.
