Cannot find keychain to store safari

When i open Safari i get a dialogue box saying a keychain for saving "safari" cannot be found. I tried to use utility to repair but it would not work.

Hi, which utility did you try to repair what with?
Was it this?
See if this helps...
Open Keychain Access in Utilities, use Keychain First Aid under the Window Menu item, then either check the Password under Safari if it exists, change it, or delete it and start over.
Resetting your keychain in Mac OS X...
>If Keychain First Aid finds an issue that it cannot repair, or if you do not know your keychain password, you may need to reset your keychain.

  • When creating a custom default user profile for an image, I get the error "A keychain cannot be found to store "safari" when a new user logs in for the first time.

    My "profile" account works flawlessly with the exception of safari. I had copied the entire user template folder to the default location in OS X 10.10 and removed the entire keychain folder. However, whenever someone logs into the computer for the first time and opens Safari, they are greeted with the error message "A keychain cannot be found to store safari".

    If you've just changed your login password in Recovery mode, follow these instructions. Otherwise, see below.
    At some point, you may have reset your keychain to default in Keychain Access. That action would have caused your login keychain to be renamed.
    Back up all data before proceeding.
    In Keychain Access, delete the login keychain from the keychain list. Choose Delete References when prompted, not Delete References & Files.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it, then copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    ~/Library/Keychains
    In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V), and press return. A folder will open. Rename the file "login.keychain" in that folder to something like "login-old.keychain". Rename the file "login_renamed_1.keychain" to "login.keychain". You can then close the folder.
    Back in Keychain Access, select 
              File ▹ Add Keychain...
    from the menu bar. Add back the file now named "login.keychain". If any of your needed keychain items are missing from it, also add back the file you named "login-old.keychain". I suggest you transfer any needed items from that keychain to the login keychain, then delete it. The transfers are made by drag-and-drop in Keychain Access. You'll need to enter your password for each item transferred.

  • I get message "A keychain cannot be found to store Safari. Now, the key chain app has disappeared. Help?

    A window with message: "A keychain cannot be found to store Safari" appears frequently. I would try First Aid, but now the keychain app itself has moved to an undisclosed location. How do I find keychain, and, once found, how do I lose the irritating message?

    Do a search for Keychain Access.
    Look in the Trash.
    Look in Applications.
    Put back in Applications/Utilities.
    Check in your User's Library/Keychains
    Do you see your login.keychain in this folder?

  • A keychain cannot be found to store "Safari"

    Hi all
    I was having problems remembering a password on step-das's Mac Mini running Mac OSX 10.9.5. In any event I was able to reset it by restarting his computer in recovery mode. After doing that though I an having other problems. These include getting the following error "A keychain cannot be found to store Safari." It then gives me the option of "Reset to Defaults" or "Cancel." I just selected cancel.  Others have suggested that I use Keychain First AId to to fix any problems. When verifying I get the following message. "Error: login keycahain not found unable to get info for ~/library/keycahains/login.keycahing, reason: the operation couldn't be completed no such file or directory. Not really sure what to do now. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. On a side note I do remember getting message about not being to update the keychain password when reseting his login password. Sorry but I not write down the message I got.
    Also his computer keeps making me login every time it is restarted, How do I fix this? i know there is a way to keep him logged every time the computer is restarted or turned on.
    And last thing that I think may be related to the keychain problem. Mail keeps asking for password when you click to get new messages. Also acts like it is not connecting to the incoming mail server at our local ISP. I am able to get new mail from this same server.
    Thanks for your help or suggestion.

    Also his computer keeps making me login every time it is restarted, How do I fix this? i know there is a way to keep him logged every time the computer is restarted or turned on.
    System Preferences/Users & Groups - unlock the padlock, select his account, and click login options. Set up automatic login.
    You may need to do a Keychain reset.

  • I am trying to obtain an App for a 4s and I cannot find the correct store.

    I cannot find the app store for a Iphone 4S. I also do not know how to determine the difference.
    I keep getting an error that the I cannot check for OS update.
    My IPhone model is: MC608LL/A
    My IPhone SN is 80*****A4S
    I use ATT
    <Personal Information Edited by Host>

    What do you mean you can't find the app store for an iPhone 4S? There are not separate app stores for different models of iPhones. There is only one app store (well... one per country, anyway). Open the "App Store" app on your phone or go to the app store in iTunes from your computer.

  • I cannot find my app store app on my phone

    i cannot find my app store app on my phone

    It's either been moved to another home screen or inadvertenlty dropped in a folder, in which case you can search for it or reset the Home Screen Layout in the General -> Reset area, or purchasing apps has been disabled in the Restrictions, also in the General settings.

  • HT4437 cannot find airplay symbol in safari

    I just recently installed Apple Tv to my TV.  I am having trouble finding the airplay on my macbook pro in safari.  I can access my music and photos via my wifi connection but cannot find the airplay symbol on my laptop.

    Yeah it's annoying, any audio or video on iOS is available for AirPlay by default, but not on OS X.
    If you have a new computer, you may be able to mirror your entire Mac's display via AirPlay mirroring. Go to System Preferences, Displays, and see if AirPlay Mirroring is an option at the bottom of the window.
    The best way for the time being is to play this content from an iOS device, or find it through the Apple TV apps (if it's YouTube or Vimeo).
    Edit: You can AirPlay all your system audio by holding down Alt, pressing the volume icon in your menubar, and selecting Apple TV. This is for Mountain Lion only, and just sends all audio that would normally come from your speakers.

  • My software is up-to-date. cannot find new App Store app

    I have updated my OS software. Cannot find the AppStre app that I understand should be on the dock. Where could it be and how do I put it on the dock?
    Thanks

    It's only installed if you're running 10.6.6 or newer. Mac OS X 10.6 is a paid upgrade, and therefore won't appear in Software Update.

  • This is a common question, and i apologize, but I have yet to see an answer.  I'm in the UK.  I have bought an Airport Extreme.  I need to buy a moden (not a combined router/modem, presumably.)  I cannot find one in stores or on the web.  Please help.

    I need a modem to go with my new Airport Extreme.  I assume I cannot connect with my existing Router/Modem.  I can't find a product either in stores or on the net.  I know this is a common question, but I have yet to find a suitable answer.  Any advice for a fairly low tech guy?
    David

    I'm glad you're able to use your current router. Sorry I can't help with your new issue, but I just wanted to add for the benefit of anyone else reading this thread - the X-Modem M3 still seems to be available from the manufacturers, this is the site I originally got it from and it's still for sale there:
    http://www.adslnation.com/phpapps/catalog/index.php?cPath=29
    Thought I'd mention, as when I got my Airport I spent ages looking for a really small neat modem to use with it and this was the best I could find so other people might be interested too.

  • I bought a first generation ipad for my 90 year old mother so she could kep in contact.  This has worked well for about 3-4 years but suddenly the Mail says it cannot find the server. Safari can find it, so what could be goin on?

    The ipad  is first generation and is not recently updated, as my Mum doesn't own a computer. We set it up through my niece's PC, and she's not currently available. It's in the UK with a btinternet account, which is, I think, run byYahoo. The Safari route allows access (although the icons are only partially visible - an update issue I'd guess), but it shows that we have the right account server name and password, etc. This happened once before and my brother took it to an Apple store and they fixed it in a trice, but he dosesn't know what they did. Next appointment is a week from now, so does anyone have a suggestion in the meantime?  Thanks for any help.

    Try a reset: hold down the home button along with the power button until you see the Apple, then let go.

  • HT1677 In iOS 7.1 I cannot find how to set Safari to Private browsing on iPad. Does anyone know?

  • I cannot connect to itunes store or safari but my internet connection is working, why is this?

    My internet connection is working, however, I cannot connect to itunes store, safari or updates on my MacBook when connected to my home wi fi. I can do so if I connect to another wi fi account, e.g. at work.  Also I can connect to safari and itunes store using my home wi fi if I use my ipad or iphone.  I have tried to re-authorize the Mac Book in case that is the issue but I cannot beacuse safari and itunes store not working.  My internet provider say they do not know what the problem is.

  • Keychain issue with Safari

    I am getting the following message in Safari every few minutes:
    "A keychain cannot be found to store "Safari".
    I have Office 2008 installed, I know there are some issues there.
    I have tried the Keychain Health Check and also the option to reset the Keychain and nothing seems to make this message stop appearing.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Josh, Try moving the 'com.apple.keychainaccess.plist' file to your desktop (don't trash it).
    Restart and see if that helps.
