How to completely remove Keychain. Stop it Completely.

As per my subject line, How do I completely disable/remove/I-do-not-want-keychain-to-be-activated-at-all as I have 5 iMacs for Public Usage. Anyway I can uninstall Keychain ? Like how u can simply uninstall programs in Windows? This feature is getting extremely annoying. It keeps recreating the Keychain entry/account/whatever called "login".

Errr...thats no good then, it keeps prompting me to login to Keychain under user "login" whch I have not set any password for (I even tried root password but still does not work) and when I try to update the password, I cant, as it keeps saying that I need to enter the "Current Password" which I have no idea what it is. I did delete the user/account "login" as per some guides, but it keeps on reappearing, is this because I am trying to modify the built-in Guest account? as per my previous post:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5817151
I am modifying the Guest account because I want it to reset back to the template even after users try to change stuff (modified it so it has the company wallpaper, browsers set to company websites, and customised the dock)
Keychain didnt act up this way in previous versions, it was all fine back in Mountain Lion.

How do I remove a purchased app completely,

How do I remove a purchased app completely,from all apple devices

You can delete it from any device that it is on by pressing and holding it on the device's homescreen for a second or two until they shake and then tapping the 'x' on its top left corner, and you can delete it from your computer's iTunes library by selecting it and pressing the delete button on your keyboard. You can also hide it from the Purchased tabs on your devices so that it doesn't show for redownloading (you can't permanently delete any item from your purchase history) : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919 - if a device is on iOS 7 you will probably then need to log out of your account on it by tapping on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back for it to disappear from the Purchased tab

How do i make Keychain stop asking for my PW when I launch Entourage?

I have really never had to do anything with Keychain, ever since I started using OSX back in the 10.2.x days.
I just used my computer. No problem; it's a Mac! I kind of had a vague idea what Keychain was, but i really never interacted with it.
Same was true when I upgraded my non-Intel Powerbook from 10.3.9 to 10.5.8. Things went fine, for over a year.
But I recently had occasion to wipe my HD and reinstall 10.5.8.
Now, keychain asks for my login admin password every time I launch Entourage.
And no matter how many times i type it in, it never remembers.
That's a pain, and I have no clue how to make it stop doing that.
When I open the Keychain access utility and click on Help to try and learn what Keychain is all about, nothing happens. That's no help!
When I run Keychain Repair, it says everything is verified, and repair says there's nothing to repair.
Within the keychain access utility, i see a list of references to many of the passwords that I entered over the past several years and the sites I used them on.
Are all those passwords with their matching URLs stored somewhere on my Mac? I have always religiously NOT done this, for obvious reasons.
Makes me kind of uneasy, 'encrypted' or not. I'm always skeptical of the "trust me..." approach to computer security.
(If hackers can hack into the Defense Dept., the average Mac would seem to be a piece of cake.)
...Altho I suppose that could be a good argument for having DoD switch over to Macs....:-)
Anyway, keychain for me is a mystery wrapped in an enigma, and it has now become a bit of an annoyance and an inconvenience.
Whenever I need annoyances and inconveniences, I can always get those at work...on my Windows PC.
So how do I get Keychain to stop asking me for my Admin username/password every time I launch Entourage?

Hello,
>Are all those passwords with their matching URLs stored somewhere on my Mac?
Yes, that IS the Keychain.

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.

But if it didn't you be bothered to put in hundrefds of usernames & Passwords a day most likely.

How do I COMPLETELY remove keychain from my mac?

The keychain pop up is on my screen literally every 30 seconds for me to type in a password. At first, I just typed the same password for all of them, but it still popped up just as often. Next, I tried clearing the key chains, locking keychain, and deleting all of the keychain passwords; the pop ups continued to appear. Any time I open an application or a program one of the keychain boxes pops up, and i have to click cancel about40 times in a row for it to go away. my sister has the same mac as I have and we got them the same day, but her's has never had the keychain pop up. I want it COMPLETELY GONE! There is nothing on my computer that requires that much security and it makes using my laptop a pain. HELP!!

This isn’t normal. What program is triggering it, can you tell? Have you opened Keychain Access and used the help menu to access the troubleshooting guide? If not give that a try.

HT201303 How do you remove an older Apple ID Password Log in

I keep having an older sign in using a older email account that is no longer in use. How do I remove and stop this from happening.
Thanks

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Firstly, you need to change your details with Apple, Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > store, scroll down and tap your ID)
If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

Possible / how to completely disable Keychain??

Hi,
I know Keychain has its fans, though I suspect most of them don't have to use it in a corporate environment, where AD users have to change passwords every month. It drives our users nuts (and me!).
I know they only have to go into Keychain Access and reset it, and I've explained to them how to do that countless times, but they still get tied into knots with it. Far better for them to just re-enter their password for each network connection (only one in our case, so no great hassle).
Don't want any advice on 'how best to use the Keychain', or to be told how wonderful it is. I simply want to banish it from our systems completely, for ever and ever (Amen!). Is this possible (short of screwing up the machine)?
Any help most welcome thanks.
I've already searched around but can find nothing about how to kill the thing. Does anyone else hate Keychain as much as me?

Hi, Jack.
By "AD" I presume you mean Active Directory.
AFAIK, you can't:• For starters, some applications, like Mail, Safari, and others are "Keychain-aware" and depend on the the keychain and Keychain Services for saving and retrieving account and password info. It's also involved in saving certificates. Remove keychain and such apps are likely to break.
• Second, it's a core part of the OS, specifically Mac OS X Security Services.I see your options as follows:
1. You may want to see if there's a way to configure AD so it does not use the Keychain. However, this means users will have to enter their passwords every time unless AD provides some other secure method for saving them.
2. You have an educational problem here, not a technical problem. Create a tutorial for them, including screen shots, showing them how to update the password. Define a Test User to use in the illustrations so you don't have to use your own account. Then given everyone a copy and place it on one of your servers so folks can download the tutorial when needed.
Good luck!

How to completely remove mac os and install windows 7 on macbook pro with retina display 15 inch

how to completely remove mac os and install windows 7 on macbook pro with retina display 15 inch

There's not much sense in purchasing a Mac to run only Windows on it. Keep in mind that drivers for Windows are a secondary concern for Apple. While Windows will typicall run fine, things like power managment are not optimized under Windows (you'll get less time on battery while running Windows). You will also not be able to install firmware updates. Firmware updates might be necessary whether you run Windows or OS X as they are updates to the code in your hardware and are not OS-specific. You must be running OS X in order to install a firmware update. You can do this even if you boot off of an external drive with OS X installed on it. At the very least, you should keep just a small partition for OS X on your internal drive.

How to remove Adobe Acrobat XI completely from computer

I had/have Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard installed on my computer. We wanted to see what additional services were available through XI. We downloaded the trial version and when we were satisfied that we did not require that edition, we removed same through the control panel. Now, PDF Maker no longer works, and the addon Tab only appears in WORD. As well, when we try to download/open PDF documents from the internet, we are unable to do so. How do I remove XI completely from my computer in order to allow PDF Maker to work again. The error I receive is that the server is cannot be loaded.

uninstall acrobat 9 and then run the acrobat cleaner: http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
then reinstall acrobat 9.

How do i completely remove headers from email messages

Hi everyone. Can someone tell me how to completely remove the headers from showing up in messages i send, forward or receive? I know how to make the headers shorter, but that's not what i want to do. I want to completely remove them from all outgoing and incoming messages. Thanks!

Hi lpagillo.
Not sure what you mean. You cannot remove the headers from the messages themselves. If what you want is them to not show up so that they don’t take up space on the screen, choose None in Preferences > Viewing > Show header detail.
