Deleted all my keychains

I went to delete one entry in my keychain and deleted everything.
I have tried restoring from my back up idisk which seems to work but then says restore cancelled in history, which it was not.
I am unable to unlock keychains as it won't accept my system manager password which is all I have ever used.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hello,
You could try to enable the root account and login using that account to gain access to make changes to your keychain.
Use the NetInfo Manager and go to security and "enable" entering the root account password.
Log out and log back in using the unknown account with the root credentials.
Make your keychain adjustments and go back to NetInfo Manager and disable the root account.
Log out and back in with your normal account.
I don't know if this will fix your issue with any absolution, but it's easy enough to try it.

I deleted all my Keychain Certificates

Must have been during a rabid senior moment. Now I get all these untrusted certificate messages in email and Safari, and they are going into Keychain. However as best as I can tell, I need to obtain a Root Certificate from the Certificate Authority (CA) or the Issuer who appears to be VeriSign. Evidently one can spot the Root Certificate because they have nice golden borders vice the plain blue borders, and they are supposed to live in the X509Anchors. This is what I THINK that I understand. However, when I tried an online chat with a VeriSign rep. it rapidly went down hill and he talked about thousands of certificates and CAs etc. I did mention that to date every certificate that I have seen appears to have been issued by them; _VeriSign Class 3 Public Primary Certification Authority - G5.cer_
I did get an email address and have tried the Keychain Access Certificate Assistant - Request a certificate from an existing CA. I am waiting to see what that will result in.
However, I am curious to see if there are others out there who have experienced this and if they have gotten a real fix.
Thanks,
DN

Hi DN, I've seen this a few times, the cure is to restore from a backup, copy from another machine, do an Archive & install, or try these...

HT204085 How can we delete all the data from iphone keychain of all the apps?

Is it possible to delete all the data from keychain? Cleaning keychain, which delete all the item stored in keychain of all the applications on iDevices. Programatically can we do it?

Depends whether you have selected Lock when Full or Wrap when Full for the Buffer Mode. If you have selected Lock When Full, the capture will stop when the the buffer is full. You can then Save the Buffer and download it in the form of sniffer file and start you capture again. This will over write the old data. If you have selected Wrap when Full, then it will continue the capture when the buffer is full. The oldest packets are discarded as new packets arrive.

Keychain periodically deletes all my passwords!

Hi guys. For some reason, Keychain will periodically delete all the passwords I have saved for no apparent reason. This is the third time it's happened and it's really starting to make me wary of using it at all. Each time it's hapened after I turn off my iMac overnight then switch it on the next day and poof! - passwords deleted. I've tried 'Keychain First Aid' in "Keychain -> Access -> Keychain menu" but each time it tells me that there's nothing wrong with it. Can someone please offer any suggestions? Thanks.

heres some instructions. http://www.dartmouth.edu/comp/support/library/software/os-help/reinstall-mac-osx /reinstall-osx.html

How to delete all passwords.

I'm taking my iMac in to the Genius bar tomorrow to have them check it because it's running so slow. I have a feelilng that they will keep it for repair and I want to be sure all my passwords for places I shop, etc are off it. I can't find where they are stored. can someone guide me to the location of passwords....particularly those used online.
Thanks
Paula

Hi.
Most of the passwords and Safari fill forms are stored in the keychain. You can access (and delete them) thru Keychain Access, located in Applications/Utilities.
You should also reset Safari and delete cookies and caches from other browsers you use.
Good Luck.

Safari auto-deletes all cookies

So periodically, every few days, Safari automatically deletes all my cookies. I don't want it to do this but I can't find a way to make it stop. It didn't use to happen, it seems to have started happening after an update, so is this normal, was this put in as a security feature, or is some problem afoot?

Since the last raft of updates, I have a problem where all sites I am usually always logged in with are logged out and the username and password no longer fill themselves in, until I re-enter them, and then it will work normally for a few days and then they all get lost again. In Safari Preferences, all cookies are still present, and are forms autofill URLs and keychain shows the site passwords too. Is this what you have?

Help! I accidentally deleted all of my autofill usernames & passwords!

Ok so I was trying to delete one of my screen names from within the autofill preferences. Unfortunately, I clicked the delete all button, not the delete selected button. This cleared the long list of saved items.
I then went into my keychain to see if I had permanently deleted them but luckily they are still there. The problem is that under access control, Camino (my old browser) is the only application shown to have permission to use it. I know that I can add safari to the list but I would have to do each one individually.
I also tried using Automator (which I've never done before) and its tracing feature but I couldn't quite figure out how to make it do different keychains.
So my question is: is there an easy way to make safari recognize my keychains again?

I wouldn't bother trying to figure out what files need to be restored; I'd just restore your whole system from the most recent backup made before you deleted the stuff you didn't want to delete. This is done by running Time Machine while booted from the Leopard install DVD.
I suppose you could hunt around, Google, ask for help, etc., to find out exactly what files need to be restored and just restoring those. But I bet that will use up more of your time and energy than just reverting everything.

How to delete all HU in one storage type

Dear experts I did use the /SCWM/ISU for uploading of the stock but now I need to change something in the structure of the storage bins.
I cannot change anything, because the bins are having HU already. Could someone give me a tipp how I can delete all HUs from one specific storage type?
Thanks in advance
BR
Denis

Hi Denis,
If the HUs are empty then the above solutions as Pet and Ifran mentioned should work for you. Else, if you have stock in the HUs then you need to scrap the stock, you can do this using /n/scwm/adgi look up the HUs then scrap them. This will empty the bins.
Thanks,

How do I delete a prior month(s) or entire year(s) in iCal on my iMac (using version 4.0.4 (1395.7)? Want to delete all months in 2009

I checked what was previous asked in deleting months from iCal; however, that question pertained to removing events from a month and not necessarily deleting the entire month. I have three years of calendars (January - December x three) in my iCal and want to delete all months for 2009 and 2010; however, I can't seem to find a way to delete. I checked preferences/advanced under iCal but no mention of deleting previous months/years.

Greetings Judith,
Before making any attempts at deleting calendar data, backup what you have just in case:
Click on each calendar on the left hand side of iCal one at a time highlighting it's name and then going to File Export > Export and saving the resulting calendar file to a logical location for safekeeping.
iCal has an automated function located in iCal > Preferences > Advanced > Delete events "X" days after they have passed. By typing in a value for days you can tell iCal to delete all events before that time frame.
Example:
Today is 4-16-2012.
If I wanted to delete all events prior to 1 year ago (4-16-2011) I would type in "365" for the number of days.
Once you type in the number of days you want kept in iCal, close the preferences and then quit iCal.
Re-open iCal and check to see if the events are gone. If not you may want to leave it open for several minutes and then quit again.
Once the events are removed go back to iCal > Preferences > Advanced > Delete events "X" days after they have passed and make sure the check mark is removed to prevent future deletion.
Hope that helps.

Is there a way to delete all events with the same title (not added as reoccurring) without deleting one at a time?

i currently have a calendar synced that has events scheduled in perpetuity, scheduled as individual events. I would like to delete all events with the same title. I do not want to delete the entire calendar nor do I want to go into every event and delete individually. These were not scheduled by me so I do not know how they were added one by one and go on forever but they are NOT scheduled as reoccurring and thus must be modified individually.
I can do a search and find all events, is there a way to just delete all events with the same title all at once?
this is a Microsoft outlook synced calendar and I am seemingly unable to delete the events all at one time from Microsoft as well.
Please help!

If you still have access to the Outlook calendar in Outlook, I would delete them from there. There are a number of ways to do that, but if you open the individual event in Outlook, does it show a repeating pattern? If not, then you may have to delete them individually, but that is not that difficult either. Go into the calendar and then change the view to a list view. From there you can sort the view according to subject. This should bring all of these same appointments together in the list and you can select the group in Outlook and delete them. Once you do that, you can change your view back and then sync the phone. That will remove the events from the phone.

My iPod 5 will not sync ANY music. All my music was on prior to syncing. The sync deleted all my music. I can now no longer add any music. I have the "sync music" checked. Restoring factory settings did not work. Any thoughts?

When you synced with iTunes It would have tried to replace the music on the iPhone with what is on the computer. which is what happens when you sync with iTunes.
If the songs are purchased you can re-downloaded them Pretty easily. You mentioned that you still see the songs and that you could not play them. Do they have a Cloud symbol next to them? If so this means that you can download them but that they are not on the device.

After I watch a podcast I delete it. When I go back in the next day it shows 500-600 episodes I have to delete manually. So 2 questions.... Is there a way to stop this from happening and is there a way to delete all. This is getting frustrating.

Had all these issues. Bit the bullet and downloaded the Downcast App ($1.99). Much better expereince and a lot more features. Sad.

I'm trying to add a playlist manually to my iPhone 4. It won't let me because it's trying to delete all of the music currently on my iPhone. Is there any way to prevent this from happening in order to start manually updating it?

Are you leaving the box unchecked to Manually manage music & videos? You don't need to to add anything to the iPhone.
Simply drag the playlist to the iPhone to manually add it.
