HT1529 Upon startup my iMac has a popup that says: "talagent wants to use the local items keychain." New to me--can't get anywhere. How do I get out of this and get things up and running again?

Upon startup my iMac (OSX Mavericks) has a popup (that I can't get rid of!) that says: "talagent wants to use the local items keychain." I never set this up, don't want it, and want my iMac to start up with my desktop in place and ready to work. I'd appreciate some help please. How do I get rid of this? Thanks.

I found this and it fixed my issue..
I was suffering with this same problem, I followed these steps and everything returned to normality:
1.- I opened KeyChain app and run the FirstAid (from the KeyChain app Menu)with my user Password (this do work) because the problem is not with your password. If there is any trouble with your keychain file this will fix it.
2.- Opened Disk Aid and run Fix Persmissions just in case there was left some wrong file permissions during the upgrade.
3.- Went back to the Key Chain App and Locked and Unlocked the Keychain using the Lock in the top left corner of the app. When asked for my password I simply typed my User password.
After this everything worked fine. These are the steps that I followed but I really think that #3 did the trick here. You could try to do only #3 directly and it might fix your problem, but fixing the Keychain and fixing OS permissions is never a bad Idea.
Good Luck friends.

Talagent wants to use the local items keychain

Since the last upgrade I have repeated boxes that asks me for a password. I can't get rid of these and don;t know what the password is that I'm being asked for. I'm wasting a lot of time going round in circles. Can anyone help?

There are several possible causes for this issue. Please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried, testing after each one, until it's resolved. Back up all data before making any changes.
Step 1
Follow the directions in this support article.
Step 2
Open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the Keychain box. You'll be prompted to delete the local iCloud keychain. Confirm. Then re-check the box. Follow one of the procedures described in this support article to set up iCloud Keychain on an additional device.
Step 3
Open the Keychains folder as in Step 1. There should be a file in that folder with the name "login.keychain". If there is also a file iwith the name "login_renamed_1.keychain", then please do as follows:
Rename login.keychain to "login-old.keychain".
Rename login_renamed_1.keychain to "login.keychain".
You can then close the folder.
Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
Delete the login keychain from the keychain list. Choose Delete References when prompted, not Delete References & Files.
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 now 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.
Select
Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
from the menu bar and repair the keychain. Quit Keychain Access.

TS1544 I attempted to reset Keychain; but keep getting "OS X wants to use the "local items" keychain" message

I never set a Keychain password (as far as I know); but OS X kept asking for one, so then I attempted to resent Keychain; but I still keep getting the above message. I updated to OS X Mavericks today.
Help?!

open finder from the dock
click the go menu on the finder bar
hold down the option key
click library
open the keychains folder
there should be a folder with 8 random numbers and letters than a - and 4 more numbers/letters etc.
throw this folder in the trash and reboot.

Taligent wants to use the local items keychain

How do I fix this tala gent keychain password problem?

Mac OSX version?
Do you have a Taligent product installed?

I have a 3GS which I purchased from the Apple Store in the UK (unlocked) without a contract. I now want to use it when on holiday in Australia. I have tried a Vodaphone sim but it doesn't work. Vodaphone in Aus say it should work as all sims the same.

The Vodaphone store in Australia says there is no difference between a sim for an iPhone to any other phone. But it still doesn't recognise the sim. Is it because sims in the UK are different for iPhones than android phones? It seems rather unfair that I can't use the phone that I purchased unlocked in the UK in another country. I also have a 4S which I was using to keep my UK sim in while in Australia. That was also purchased unlocked from the Apple Store. I haven't tried it but would it be any different?

If your phone is officially unlocked, it should work fine on any supported carrier's network. Are you getting any error messages when you insert the sim?

I want to sync tasks in Outlook with my iPhone. I have tried Toodledo (not good) and Todo. Todo works, but it cuts off most of the text. I only get the beginning of my (long) lists. Any ideas how I can solve this problem?

Usually if you have some kind of hardware failure there is some beeping during POST or most motherboards now have LED indicators to produce and error message based on the type of failure
So if its bad memory, not place properly, mismatched, processor not inserted properly, mismatched voltage or voltage connector not present etc it beeps or generates the error id.
Power supplies can be tested for failure. There are some walk throughs for testing just them with a switch, paperclip or a jumper (I'd suggest not doing this if you are not familiar with the dangers of electricity).
Memory can be tested with memory diagnostics programs like Memtest+
Processors can overheat if the proper precautions have not been taken usually you will get a POST beep or error code for that.
If the motherboard has no response then do the basics first:
Check power connectors and power supply. Once you determine that is not the case move on to other items like graphics cards in all the way or memory.

HT203897 Change the password on the Local Items keychain

I just came across this article: HT203897: OS X Mavericks v10.9.1: Repeated prompts to unlock "Local Items" keychain
as I was experiencing the same issue after a reboot of 10.10.2 (fully patched with Sophos AV and all apps patched to current levels). It turns out the the Local Items keychain it too stupid to detect a password change to the Login keychain and causes this issue. What's worse is that I can't update the keychain password to match. I have a lot of password and don't feel like re-entering each one again.
Does anyone know of a way to change a keychain password from Terminal? Thanks

FYI, I stumbled across an article by a colleague, the great MacMule, who discusses this issue and shows how the security command can normally be used to change a keychain password as such
$ security set-keychain-password
But the local items keychain is not a normal keychain as shown here
$ ls -lah ~/Library/Keychains/

As you may notice, the Local Items keychain is a directory and not a .keychain file so this utility will not work.

I am having the same problem, and my computer is authorized through my Adobe ID and I cannot open any books. I tried downloading a book from the university library, using my ID, the book is in ACSM format, and I cannot open the book because it keeps telling me

My itunes will not open at all - I repeatedly get the message"itunes library is corrupted...not installed correctly...please reinstall itunes" I have tried opening all my itunes folders but nothing will even open.

Let's try a repair install of iTunes first.
Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "iTunes" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "iTunes", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
Can you launch your iTunes now?

How do I get rid of the prompt to unlock the "Local Items" keychain in various applications?

How do I get rid of the prompt to unlock the "Local Items" keychainin various applications?

Generally the easiest fix is to go into Finder. Click go at the very top of your screen. Hold down option, you will see a Library folder pop up. Go into the Library and then into Keychain. Delete everything in this folder. Restart. If that doesn't fix it go to Spotlight (the little magnifying glass in the top right) type Keychain Access. Make sure the little lock in the top left of that window is unlocked. Hope this helps.

Shockwave Plug-in unresponsive or just crashes? Help (I have tried almost everything that I know of)

Hi, I am sure you have heard this a million times but I'm going to ask because I have run out of options and have never asked it here. I like to play Facebook games on my computer which is a 32 bit windows 7 version operating system. Anyway it crashes on me constantly! It can be up to 5 times within a half hour! Well actually it goes Unresposive on me around 5 times and crashes around twice an hour or half hour time.Then I just quit because i am so fed up!. Sometimes I wait it out.That is if it say's that the plug-in isn't responsive. It will then usually snap out of it but when it doesn't it decides to crash all together.Then it works just to turn around and do it again. Then I have to go back to the main Face book page and start the game all over again. This has been going on for as long as I can remember. Gradually getting worse as I try to fix it. Not sure what changed to make it happen in the first place because I am the only one using my computer for the most part and I do not change or download anything. Occassionally, my son might use it but he is pretty computer savy. I am not that good with computers, I mean like a computer nerd or something, but I definitely know my way around one for the most part. I have been looking this problem up forever on the Internet and have tried most everything that I have read and it has only made my problems worse. Right now I am trying to uninstall it so I can then reinstall it but the Uninstall program from Adobe won't go any further than the part where they tell you that you have something else running in the background and they can't go forward until it is closed. Problem is, everything is closed that I can tell. They say my Internet Explorer is running but it's not. Not that I can tell any way. Like I said in less there is some secret that I don't know about I would know from my desktop, downloads, or task manager among other ways if it were running. I remember trying this before as well months ago and it said the same thing. I have already tried the double file thing under Chrome// Plugins and disabled my second copy that is once I had one. At first I didn't but I keep a close eye on it because of my son so as soon as there were two copies running I disabled one.It didn't make any difference.So that isn't the problem and never has been.So please no need to bring that one up. I of course tried other things, suggestions from other websites but can't remember them now except that one of the suggestions I followed literally wiped out my entire Chrome Favorites Bookmark List. Argggg!! Years and years of websites were gone just like that. When I set my computer back to before I did that it still didn't give them back to me. O.K. so maybe I don't know what the hell I am doing or maybe they didn't. I don't know. I was trying anything. I was desperate and they sounded like they knew what they are talking about. But it still irritates me even though it was over 6 months ago or more.. I tried then everything to get my bookmarks back in Chrome and I couldn't. Any help out there about fixing the Shockwave crashes and Shockwave Unresponsive warnings? Please!Thanks, Ellen
P.S. Oh by the way this is what I have.
Version 11.7.700.225

Ok you got to post more information then that of the crash can you post more information about it like the frequency it happens, the code that pops up the id so go into the reliability history and post the info about the last crash

FF3 used to have a backup button that I could jump backwards several pages. Is there a way in FF4 for this?

There is a backup button in FF4 that is larger than the round one in FF3. But to the right of the forward button there used to be a dropdown that would list the last dozen pages. Can this function be enabled in FF4 or do I need to look for a plug-in to do this. I can't believe they took it out.

Right click the Back / Forward buttons to get a list of sites previously visited.
You can also install this add-on: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/backforward-dropmarker/
You can also use the location bar to search history, bookmarks etc. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Location%20bar%20autocomplete#w_changing-results-on-the-fly Search using the Awesome bar](The Awesome bar is the same as the location bar where you normally type in a web address).

My mom and me want to use the iPod on two computers, one Mac and one Windows. Is that possible or will it destroy the iPod?

My mom has a Windows computer, I have a Mac, and we have an iPod nano 6th generation. Is it possible to use the iPod with both the Windows and the Mac? And does it add the music and playlists but not delete?
Thank you,
Jan

Hey, thank you so much.
But now: I can add Musik, but it won't load the Cs-covers and the play lists on the iPod. I did it the way they tell me to do it. I just grabbed it and put it into the iPod. I can see the lists on the computer, but not on hte iPod in the menu.
how can I get the play lists?
Thank you.
Jan
