Every time I send an email, OSX sends a request for admin name and password. How can I stop this?

OS X want to make changes. Type an administrator's name and password to allow this. OS X wants to use the "System" keychain."

Hello rosern,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
If you're continuously being prompted to enter the administrator password to unlock your Keychain when you're using Mail, then I'd like you to please follow the directions outlined below.
If you entered the correct password in the password dialog in Mail, but continue to be asked for your password, try these suggestions.
In Keychain Access, locate and delete the email account password item.
In Disk Utility, select the volume (for your hard disk or disks) in the list, click First Aid, then Verify Disk. After you’ve verified (and repaired, if necessary) the disk, try sending yourself a message.
Mail (Yosemite): If Mail keeps asking for your password
Take care,
Alex H.

  • Every time I view a website just once, it goes to my "Mosted Visited" . How can I stop this from happening? I thought this was just what it says "Mosted Visited" Not single visits to a web site.

    Example: My wife views her e-mails every night. A lot of her e-mails are about recipes & stores with special offers. The next
    morning all the sites that she visited are in the "Most Visited".
    This also happens to me. I get tired of removing these sites from
    "Most Visited".

    Only when i go to a different browser (like IE) after i clear it , then all that shows up is the pages i visited in IE , that is what bugs me , why is IE browsing history sowing up in Firefox ??
    Basically , i can clear the history in Firefox , and then for a example , go to Craigslist , using IE7 (launching it from a complete different Icon , in other words at that time i never open Firefox) , then after closing out , or even leaving open as it does not seem to matter , i go into Firefox , and hit History , and there is every place i visited in IE7 , on my History in Firefox

  • Every time I put a movie on itunes then it comes to home movies. Howe can i solve this?

    Every time I put a movie on itunes then it comes to home movies. Howe can i solve this?

    In iTunes 11 that's the default behaviour. You can change this by right-clicking a title in iTunes, choosing 'Get Info' and changing the Video Kind field to "Movie" or "TV Show". You can also change it to "Music Video" but then the video will be moved to the Music section.
    You can also select multiple video titles simultaniously and do the above step for all videos at once. This will save a lot of clicks if you have a long list of videos.

  • Hi I've just download os x mavericks 10.9 on my macbook pro the trouble is when i am on the internet my screen goes of it keeps saying put in your password how can i stop this every time the screen goes to sleep

    I don't know how you received an upgrade for iTunes.  You make it sound like it was sent to you.  At most your computer will tell you of a new version and you tell it to download it and install it.  However, a computer will not do this for a version which is incompatible.  iTunes 10.7 came out a few weeks ago but your computer would not notify you and even if it did, 10.7 would refuse to install on your computer.  So this part isn't making a lot of sense.
    Two ways to get the 'newer version' message.  One is to open your library on a computer running a newer version, and then try to open it with an older version.  Usually happens when the library is on an external and used with multiple computers.  The second way is if you have multiple versions of itunes installed on your computer.
    The newest (and likely the last) iTunes for OSX 10.5.8 is iTunes 10.6.3 which has been out for quite a while.

  • I have 2 hotmail accounts on my mail, when I send from one account I receive the reply in my other account, how can I stop this from happening?

    I have 2 hotmail accounts in my Mac Mail, when I send from one account the reply comes back to the other hotmail account, how can I stop this?

    You should be able to open both accounts.
    I believe Hotmail T&C may expect you to have only one account, but possibly multiple alliases.
    You may have problems opening two separate hotmail accounts at once in Firefox. Try using a new private browsing window for the second one. With any look that will separate them enough for you to use both at once.
    (With other account holders permission.) I sometimes open my own and another persons hotmail account by that method.

  • After deleting an email in my 'Inbox', it is then downloaded again! How can I stop this repetition?

    After deleting individual emails that I no longer need, I find that they soon re-appear in the 'Inbox' as new emails. This has been happening for several weeks now. What is causing this repetition to occur and how can I stop this from happening?

    probably "leave message on server" setting
    Check your accounts server settings.
    Also if you have leave ..... enabled you must mark "until I delete them"

  • When I try to open an email, two (2) "Firefox Document(s)" try to download. How can I stop this?

    I have Window7 64 bit and use Microsoft Outlook 2010 for email. Every time I open an email, two documents try to download. They are each called Firefox Document with very long "names"(?). An example is {86E67A0-2915-4CDA-8941-96A5C9A3FCF8}.hmtl.
    I have to cancel one and then the other popup windows. Then the same thing happens for the next email I open but the "name" of the file is different. In addition to this being a pain in the butt, I'm now afraid to send any email for fear the receiver will get the same problem. I was thinking of doing a restore, but read that such an action by design does not change email. How can I send you a screen shot?

    If this is not an intentional change by your email website, you might try the following. When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
    (2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

  • Every time i turn on my iMac my iTunes opens with a window asking me to sign in with my password , how can i stop this ?

    Every time I turn on my Imac my itunes opens as I have set up to but a window pops up asking me to sign in with my itunes password , is there a way to stop this as it's quite annoying .
    Many Thanks
    A

    Correction: this is for automatic logon of the iMac itself.
    In SystemPreferences/Users&Groups  login items tab:
    remove the line
    iTunes  with the minus sign at the bottom.
    then also iTunes Match if you have it.

  • I just did a update on my Iphone 5..now when i send a text message,it repeats back under my phone number..how can i stop this?

    my texts are repeating back to me under my number,why?

    There are multiple reasons why the update failed, unless you can provide an error message/code that came up then nodbody will know.
    Now your iPhone is in recovery mode and will now need to be connected to a computer with iTunes and restored to factory settings. This will install the update at the same time.
    If you have a back up of the iPhone before the issue occurred then after the restore to fqactory settings you can restore the back up to the iPhone. If there was no back up then I'm sorry your data is gone.

  • Since the last update, every time I open "Numbers" I get a notice that a font is missing.  How can I stop seeing this warning?

    Since the last update for "numbers", everytime I open numbers I get a notice that a font is missing.  I don't care that it's missing and I would like to not see that message.  How can I get rid of it?

    A document you had open at the time you quit Numbers has a font that you do not have (probably Calibri).  You can change the font to one you have OR close the file before you quit Numbers.  Numbers will open files you had open when you quit.
    Looks like:
    The other thing you can do is check the box "Close windows when quitting an application" in "System Preferences > General"

  • When I delete emails on my I Phone, the email is deleting from my MS Outlook as well, automatically  How can I stop this?

    I want my Outlook and email on my I Phone to remain independant of one another.  When I delete from my I Phone I want the email to remain untouched on my Outlook.  How can I "disconnect" the two?

    Microsoft did as they always do - copy others and in this case they copied Google by allowing a Hotmail account to be accessed as an Exchange account with the iPhone's Mail app.
    If you are accessing the account as an Exchange account with the iPhone's Mail app, delete the account and recreate the account as a POP account.
    A downside with a POP account is only one email client at a time can communicate with the incoming mail server to check the server for new messages and to download any new messages. When one email client is doing this when another attempts to do the same, the incoming mail server will temporarily block the 2nd email client from accessing the server.
