Can you turn off  "Keychain"

It is annoying me, I go into keychain and keychain first aid, but every-time it prompts me for a password, i type it in, it tells me it is incorrect.
Can i make this go away?
TIA

Keychain stores your passwords for applications to access when needed, such as checking for mail or syncing to .Mac, logging onto file servers, etc. Attempting to disable it would make your situation even worse. If you're getting password errors for your Admin account, boot from the Leopard installer disc and choose "Reset Password" from the Utilities menu. Follow the prompts to re-enter your Admin account password. You will likely get prompts initially after restarting for your passwords as Keychain rebuilds its list.

    how can I turn off Keychain from asking for my password EVERY time I check for mail?
    This is really driving me nuts.....
    Thanks

    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Security & Privacy, and then click General. 
    Open the General pane of Security & Privacy preferences
    2.     Select “Require password...NEVER after sleep or screen saver begins.”  You can adjust the amount of delay before a password is required in the pop-up menu.
    From what I am aware, you cannot turn off the keychain.
    I hope this helps.

    An alternate method is Accessibility Settings when connected to iTunes. You should be able to turn it off there. I would also check out some of the answers listed to the right of this post and see if they can help.

  • I set up Keychain and do not have access to the telephone I gave.  Now I can no longer connect my ipad to my windows computer.  I can not turn off Keychain...it is awaiting authorization from the SMS on the telephone I do not have access to.

    I set up Keychain and do not have access to the telephone I gave.  Now I can no longer connect my ipad to my windows computer, itunes does not automatically open when I plug in the USB.  I can not turn off Keychain in my ipad since authorization is pending awaiting the code sent by SMS, which I can not get.  Can someone advise how to get rid of Keychain.  Should I cancel my icloud account?

    I appreciate your help.
    Have reset the ipad, but that changed nothing.  I can not turn off Keychain, iit remains "pending approval".  Probably, the only thing to do is to close my icloud account...which I hate to do since there is a lot of data saved there.  But, I am unable to back the ipad up on my Windows 8 computer because itunes no longer opens when the ipad is attached.
    Oh well...computers are computers and it is impossible to cover 100% of the situations.
    Keychain iss not the best app for someone who lives in 3 different countries.
    Thanks

    How can you turn off the sounds for receiving a text or e-mail while on a phone call???

    That's the most stupid thing. It may work but the phone shouldn't be going off in your ear while in use from the start.

  • Can you turn off apps that you've opened so the battery lasts longer?

    With the new upgrade to 7.0.2 can you turn off apps you've opened so the battery lasts longer?

    Two things:
    In iOS 7 to close apps now you double click the Home button, then slide up on the cards for the apps you'd like to close.
    Next, to actually deal with the battery use issue and open apps, you can go to Settings>General>Background App Refresh and turn off the apps you don't care to have working behind the scenes.
