Email and keychain passwords needed after iTunes 6.0

I just upgraded to iTunes 6.0 from 4.9. Everything seems to work fine, but when I wanted to check my email, I got a window asking me for my keychain password or phrase. I entered my system password, but said "sorry, invalid..." so I hit cancel a few times and the window closed. Then, I needed to enter my passwords for each e-mail account that I have. I entered them and mail seems to be working okay now. The music store is working fine, but I have not purchased any new songs yet.
Do you have any idea why a keychain or email passwords are needed after the upgrade? Thanks in advance.

Hello. my default keychain is locked and it says my password is invalid, so I cannot unlock it. This happened after upgrading to iTunes 6.0. One of the immediate problems is that I have to enter my email passwords manually when getting mail. How do I fix this keychain problem? Thanks.

When I updated iTunes last week, it asked me for an email and new password. I misspelled my email. How do I delete that account and is that what I need to do?

Before I installed IOS last week, I had to update iTunes. It asked me to give an email and new password. I misspelled my email and now I have two iTunes accounts. Do I need to delete the wrongly spelled one and will that delete the IOS on my phone or just ignore it?

You should have your stuff separate from your mom's. Delete all the apps downloaded or purchased with your mom's Apple ID and download or purchase them with your own Apple ID. Back up files and data first if possible.

I don't know my rescue email and security password.i just added an alternative email address but it doesn't send there....also I just added 25$ on iTunes.please help!

The reset link will only send reset info to your rescue email address, an alternate email address is not used for account security. If you don't know what your rescue email address is (you won't be able to view/change it until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.

Hi, I need to install Adobe Flash Player because the version I have installed in my Mac Os is old, but I can´t because I need to write my email and my password and I don´t remember my password, so what can I do?

The email and password will be the ones for your computer's security, not something for any Adobe product. You might need to consult Mac customer support if you are unable to determine the required information.

The password prompt is supplied by the operating system, and is intended to protect you from accidentally installing software. You will get this prompt for any installation outside the App Store context.
If you do not need to enter a username or password when starting your computer, you can probably just leave the password field blank when acknowledging this prompt.

Without the Apple ID and password the phone was originally activated with, you will not be able to activate the phone. No one here can help you, and neither can Apple. So, unless you or your friend can remember that ID, you will never be able to activate the phone.

TS3988 i changed my apple id email and when i sign into iCloud on my phone it still comes up with the old email and my password isn't working for it?

Try going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

After restoring iPhone 4S, Login password and Keychain password not working!!

Hey!
So last night my Girlfriend restored her iPhone 4S running iOS 7 as new to fix a battery issue she was experiencing. Before doing this she went through and backed up her photos using iPhoto. She then restored the iPhone as new and when it had completed attempted to login to the mac as it had locked itself due to inactivity. Unfortunately she wasn't able to login and waited until I got home so I could try the password.. When I did get home I tried to login using the password but it didn't work. At that point I realised something had gone wrong so I tried all of my other passwords I had previously used with the mac as well as my Apple ID. None of them worked. At this point I booted to the Recovery 10.8.2 Partition and reset the password using the Password Reset Utility.
I then logged in and attempted to update the Keychain Password (This was the default "Login" keychain so it should be the same password as the Users password.). It didn't accept it so I went through and created a new Keychain to test if Keychain Access Application was working. It accepted the new keychain and I could operate the Application as if nothing was wrong (There was something wrong though, all of my passwords for many websites were stored in this keychain). I then removed the reference to the keychain and moved the keychain file from ~/Keychain folder to the desktop. I then reimported the Keychain and it still did not accept the password.
I called AppleCare to get a second opinion and spoke with a Senior Advisor who told me to just start a new one. I don't mind starting a new Keychain as I know the passwords for the main websites I browse, HOWEVER, I'd like to see if anyone knows what may have happened so I can perhaps prevent this from happening again.
Thanks in advance,
Nathan Freeman

Tlix!
Thanks for the reply! Yeah, I'm quite aware that the restore of an iPhone should not have impacted the login password/keychain password. This thought has been further concreted after consulting a few of my Apple Fanboy buddies who are fairly experienced in troubleshooting issues relating to Mac computers. In regards to try a blank password, I've actually had the exact same thought and will be trying this tonight. I'll be sure to post the results of this to let you know what happens.
Unfortunately I haven't gotten round to making a TM backup of my device, primarily due to my current lack of an external HDD.
Thanks,
Nathan Freeman

We are fellow users here on these forums, only you will know what your email address and password are.
If you've forgotten your account id then do you have any of its downloads in your computer's iTunes library : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1920 ?
Or see if you can get your id and/or password reset via http://iforgot.apple.com

I didn't change my password, but now I can't get into my account. I don't remember my original email. Is there a way to find out what the email is?
Surely it can't be against privacy rules. On other sites when I click the lost password it will say "email to [email protected]"
All I need to know is the email and the rest is easy. Is there a way to find this out?
I've had this account forever and don't want to lose it over someone just hacking my account.
