HT204085 why do I have to re-type the password for each item, like contacts, messages etc. every time I restart the computer?

Every time I start up the computer I get a pop up to type in my keychain password for each item. One for contacts and again for messages etc. Why do I have to do this every time at startup?

Hello, GoodyearMary. 
Thank you for the question.  Here are a couple articles that you may find helpful with this issue.

    If you do not want to use passcodes, why don't you just go to Settings > General > Passcode Lock and delete the passcode and set the lock to OFF.  That will eliminate the problems all together.

  • Every time I restart the opensso have to set up all over again!!

    every time I restart the opensso have to set up all over again,
    I haved the download Opensso and every time that i shutdown the server, i have to set up ALL again...
    where can I find the Docs how to set up It correctly????
    Thanks in advanced!!!!

    Hi,
    Have you deployed on JBoss? If so, ensure you've done an exploded deployment - see JBoss section of the release notes at http://download.java.net/general/opensso/stable/openssov1-build4/B4-ReleaseNotes.html
    Deploying the WAR directly onto JBoss expands it into a temporary directory and it loses its configuration when the server is shutdown.

    Hi Lawrence. I'll go through the process. I click on SMTP under outgoing mail server. My primary server, smpt.aol.com is on. The next screen says server, which is on, then underneath that is the outgoing mail server. Everything under that heading is greyed out, which includes the host name, my user name, password (which says optional), user ssl (which is on), authentication, then server port 587. I need to change my password where it says optional, but it is all greyed out and won't allow me to do so. Thanks very much for your help!

  • Why do I have to re-enter my password for my wireless router?

    I bought my brand new Macbook Pro yesterday and am pretty disappointed.
    Can someone please explain in very basic terms, how to keep my Mac connected to the internet? Every time I attempt to connect to the internet, I'm asked to enter my password for my wireless router. I also have a ThinkPad that's also new and it stays connected to the internet and once I entered my password for the router, it's stayed connected and I have never had to enter the password again.
    Did I make a mistake buying a Mac? I have time to return it, so any advice is much appreciated.

    Hi phog,
    When you're entering the password, are you being sure to check the "remember this network" checkbox that's on the box where you type your password in? If you don't, every time you reconnect to your network, you'll be asked to re-enter it. Also, is this happening only when you restart your machine or wake it from sleep, or is it happening every time you quit your browser and re-open it?
    Keep at it! There's a learning curve with any new equipment, but as someone who switched from PCs myself about five years ago, I can tell you that it's worth it.
    Hope that helps!

  • HT5295 Why do i have to keep setting x2 speed for each podcast that i listen to?

    When I play podcasts through the Music app, I can set x2 speed and it stays selected for all podcasts that I play.  Here, it seems that I have to flip up the settings page and set x2 for each podcast I play.  Why won't this setting persist across plays?

    What do you mean by the settings page? The sped selector is on the Now Playing screen.

  • Why does "a photo has been found in the iPhoto library that was not imported" message appear every time I open i photo?

    It happens on my iMac, and now that I have transferred some photos from that computer to my MacBook it is happening there, too.  If I say that I don't want to import it, it "saves" it automatically to a file somewhere on the hard drive.  That folder appears empty when opened, so I'm not sure what it's saving.  Every time I open iPhoto it asks me twice before I can proceed, and creates two neat little folders with nothing in them.  If I say that I do want to import the mystery photo, it plunks the nothing that has not been imported in to a Recovered Photos album.  Once again, nothing there.  Any ideas as to how to fix this problem?

    Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
    Look there for a Folder called 'Import' or 'Importing'.
    Drag it to the Desktop. *Make no other changes*.
    Start iPhoto. Does that help?
    If it does then look inside that folder on your desktop. Does it contain anything you want? If not you can trash the folder.

  • Why do multiple programs open up every time I restart my computer?

    Everytime I shut down or restart my computer CS5, Bridge, Mail, Safari Ical, and Icalibrate all open up upon restarting. It is SO annoying! How do I get it to stop?

    First, you may not have closed all your applications, then....You didn't unclick "reopen windows when logging back in" in the shutdown dialog box.
    Yes, it is a pain in the ^&$ function of Lion.
    This is what I use for a quick, clean, and easy shutdown with one click. No worry about apps reopening.
    Once installed in you Applications folder, copy(drag) the app icon to the dock. and you are set. One click, and you have a clean shutdown.

  • For remembering passwords I once clicked "never for this site" on a site, and have changed my mind and I want Firefox to remember the password for this site. How do I go in and reset the settings to change this?

    My Firefox is set up to delete cache, and all history upon closing. But when I restarted my Firefox, or manually deleted everything, nothing worked. Is there a way to reset these? Or do I have to completely uninstall and reinstall Firefox? Even that might not work though.

    Try creating a new Profile. See [[Profiles]].
    You can recover existing passwords, bookmarks etc., from the current Profile and move them to the new one. See: [[Managing Profiles]]

  • Every time I restart my computer, the spotify app disappears and I have to reinstall it.

    I just reformatted my MacBook Pro and I've re-downloaded and re-installed Spotify every day since because a reboot makes the app disappear from my dock and from the apps list. I cannot find any trace on my computer. It is very odd. Any thoughts?
    Thanks

    I reinstalled again and I tried to drag the Spotify icon from my dock into applications. That didn't work. (I know I'm probably telling you what you already know, but I wanted to share for other less advanced users like myself).
    I searched in Finder and could not find Spotify.
    I quit Spotify without rebooting and it disappeared from my dock. I was worried.
    I then went to finder, chose Go and Computer, then I searched spotify on my hard drive, and Spotify was there. When I looked at its path, it appeared to be in Apps, but it wasn't appearing in the Apps folder. So, I dragged the Spotify icon from my search results into Apps, and now, my problem is solved.
    I'm not sure what was going on, but I'm happy to have it fixed, and I appreciate your help.
    Y Mende, que tenga una buena fin de semana. Me encanta Toledo.

  • Why is Terminal opening up automatically every time I restart my computer?

    Just recently, I've noticed that, upon re-starting my computer, Terminal would open up automatically with the same window and text content. Below is a screen capture of what is showing up. It does not seem to affect my computer, but its a little unnerving. Any help would be greatly appreciated... thanks.

    Thanks - LexSchellings for replying.
    Regrettably I do not have startupitems as a directory. Perhaps I am not interpreting this correctly, however here are my Library subdirectories - if you could point to the correct section that might be related.

  • Have to create a new folio every time I restart my computer, any fix?

    I'm having some major issues with updating articles. When I shut off my computer, on restart I can't open or update the articles in my folio. The only way to get them to update or even connect to source files is to create a new folio and re-import all of my articles again.
    I've tried:
    -Checking for and installing all adobe updates
    -Re-installing INDD and DPS
    -Logging out of Folio Builder and back in
    -Making sure I'm not connected to any other user servers etc.
    Would really like not to have to recreate this folio everytime I shut down. I'm on CS6, Mac OS 10.6.8.  Any ideas?

    I figured it out. I have to disconnect from servers and user drives, a problem I've experienced with Bridge and Photoshop in the past. I should have thought of it sooner:

  • Every time I restart my computer, I have to log in to Microsoft Office 365 to use applications

    After starting my computer, I have to sign into Microsoft 365 or enter a product key to open up Word documents, Excel sheets or Powerpoint. This is problematic because I don't always have internet wherever I go and thus, don't have access to Office. Help!

    Hi
    According to your description, you want to work offline with Office 365.
    Internet access is required to install and activate all Office 365 plans and to manage your subscription account. Internet connectivity is also required to access Office 365 cloud productivity services, including email, conferencing, IT management, and other
    services.
    Many Office 365 plans also include the desktop version of Office, for example, Office 365 Small Business Premium and Office 365 Enterprise E3. One of the benefits of having the desktop version of Office applications is that you can work offline and have
    the confidence that the next time you connect to the Internet all your work will automatically sync, so you never have to worry about your documents being up to date. Your desktop version of Office is also automatically kept up to date and upgraded when you
    connect to the Internet, so you always have the latest tools to help you work.
    Compare Office 365 plans.
    Office365 supports offline working in a number of ways.
    SharePoint Online – Use SharePoint Workspace to synchronise Documents between your local PC and your SharePoint Online Site allowing offline working.
    Use Microsoft Office Professional Plus – Subscribe and receive you can install the full install of the Microsoft Office Suite to use on your computer (and up to 4 others which you use) – this includes Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Onenote, Access, Lync,
    SharePoint Workspace & Infopath.
