How do I stop the popup "identityservicesd wants to use your confidential information stored in " key " in your keychain"? Always allow doesn't work.

I repeatedly see the popup:
"identityservicesd wants to use your confidential information stored in "<key>" in your keychain"
If I click "always allow" it still comes up.
I've followed instructions elsewhere on this forum to open Keychain Access and use First Aid, but to no avail.
Previously I would receive the popup "messages app wants to use your confidential information..." but I changed the Access Control to allow all applications to access this item, hoping that would do the trick. But sadly it didn't work.
Any ideas?
(Also, ever since upgrading to Mavericks, it wants to go through first-time setup every time I log in. I'm prompted to enter my iCloud password, etc. etc. but the above problem predates that)

My immediate reaction is to deny.
Have you downloaded or installed any application that may relate to the abbreviation AOS? It may not necessarily be the application's name, could be the developer or distributor.
As it's occuring at log-in, go to System Preferences > Accounts > your account > Login Items and look for a related item. If there's one there, right-click (or ctrl click) on it and select Reveal in Finder. That will show you where the originator of the item is on your system and should give you more of a clue as to what it is.
I'd remove the item from login items anyway (highlight and click the minus sign at the bottom of the window). There shouldn't be anything trying to use your keychain info to notify anyone.

Translate wants to use your confidential information stored in.....?

I don't know why, but all of a sudden, I keep getting this message from my mail program. I keep saying Deny, but it comes back. I have searched relentlessly and have found no answers. Since the app is called translate, all I keep getting are translation information. Nothing to do with whatever is going on here.
Here is a copy of the message:
*translate wants to use your confidential information stored in "Exchange" in your keychain.*
I don't know if this is legit, or if it is something malicious. Can anyone with any knowledge in this, please enlighten me.
TIA, Billy

First the basics.
Which mail program?
Any third party software being used in conjunction with mail or to enhance the system? (e.g., There are translation programs which are meant to interact with mail, I think.)
What happens if you search your mac for the string "translate", any applications show up?

Change your settings in Sharing preferences, for one, and remove the server out of the Finder's sidebar. Obviously, this is the result of transfering all your other computer's preferences to your new computer.

I have had this same issue but thankfully fixed it. Follow he steps below:
Sync your iPhone with you iTunes therefore your info is backed up. Unplug your phone.
Go to Settings > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings
Once your phone has reset and come back on answer the question until it asks if you want to back up from itunes Click this then plug your phone in.
After everything has sync'd back to your phone everything should work fine.
Hope this helps.

☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
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.

How do i stop the popup window that keeps asking me to import my bookmarks to firefox "hey there! do you want to backup your bookmarks by importing them to firefox?" It keeps popping up and its really annoying. Help!!!

it happens every time i turn firefox on. FYI: i do have firefox private browsing on (if that makes a difference).

I think I solved it.
I searched my extensions folder (in my profile) for all image files (PNG and JPG), and found the pop-up images to be in an extension folder related to Firefox Sync (not an external extension, actually). But even though I had already disabled it and un-linked this computer from Firefox Sync, the message still popped-up.
I think the image filename was SYNC.PNG, or something like that. Close Firefox, find the folder where that image is in, and rename the main folder (the one right under the extensions folder) to some other name (such as "original name_copy"). Then start Firefox. Check if it works OK and if the pop-up ceases to appear. If everything OK, then you can delete that folder.
If something goes wrong, just rename the folder to what it was before.

How do I stop the popup ads from hoping up everywhere?

Everytime I go on Safari, and open a webpage I go and start reading the article I want to read and next thing you know up pops an App or a game and my article I was trying to read is nowhere to be found! This is absolutely as frustrating as I can possibly get!! I can't read anything ever, because of the Apps and games popping up everywhere!! What can I do to stop this from happening?? This is not a good quality user experience with Apple products I'm having and am thinking about going back Android because even though the user experience isn't that much better there, its at least better than this pop up crap happening everytime I'm on Safari trying to read. Please help? Please? I already have block pop ups checked in preferences so I don't know how else this can be prevented?
Thank you ANYONE whom can help me eliminate this from happening anymore?

How do I stop the popup that tells me I entered the wrong MobileMe password? Since the day I entered the wrong one, every time I turn it on now, the notification pops up- even if I'm not trying to log into my Mobile Me account.

How do I stop an "invalid password" notification popup from popping up continually?From the first time I entered a wrong Mobile Me password, even when I am not trying to access my account, it continually pops up over whatever I have on the screen. I can drag it down out of the way, but when I hit the "ok" button, in a few seconds, it pops back up again. Help, this is so annoying!

Try opening Keychain Access (found in /Applications/Utilities), then locate your MobileMe password there (it'll have the same name as your MobileMe username, and will have a MobileMe icon) and delete it.

Each time I open foxfire a popup asking how to process a download opens and inhibits use of foxfire. How do I stop the popup?

each time I open foxfire a .LNK popup appears asking how to process a download opens and inhibits use of foxfire. How do I stop this and allow me to open and use foxfire browser. This started after I attempted to follow directions to install/associate a .LNK program/file with foxfire to control saving downloads using any browser. Note that I am a novice user. How can I stop this?

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

Every time Firefox starts I get a Pop Up: "The Update could not be installed (patch ap
When I check Firefox for updates I receive this message: Congrats! You’re using the latest version of Firefox.
How do I stop this Pop Up?

Try to run the Firefox program once as Administrator (right-click: Run as Administrator).

How can I stop the popup insisting that I register a printer that I no longer have or use?

The popup screen keeps appearing on a random basis even though I click "don't remind me again." It's very annoying.

Hi,
The pop up is usually run as a scheduled task, so open windows Control Panel, open Administrative Tools and open Task Scheduler. Left click once on Task Scheduler Library to highlight it and look for an entry called 'Webreg'. Left click this once to highlight it, then right click and select Disable. Restart the Pc for the change to take effect.
Regards,
DP-K
