Installed lion have problem with keychain password

When i type the password for systems certificate itsays the password that i use for all the other keychains is wrong. I get the multicolor spinning wheel each time after i enter the password.

Hi. I am wondering if you have solved the problem yet? I haven't had any other replies, so maybe my post isn't visible in the right places!
I have tried booting up in Safe mode, completely re-installing OS X Mavericks in Recovery mode, and repairing both permissions and the disk in Disk Utility, all without success. Those little windows are still there!
I came across 'How to KILL Keychain from Safari access' in More Like This, which appeared to be helpful, but the link given by Ash, doesn't seem to be active, as I just get the Apple Support home page.
If anyone else sees this, do you have any suggestions, please?

Have problems with Keychain

I'm having massive problems with my keychain. They are not the same password as my main password to my computer itself, so everytime I open up the browser, or Safari, rather...the keychain window keeps popping up. How do I resolve this?

Hi
If you have a different keychain password from your log in password this is to be expected
However there is a work around you can try open the keychain access application and go to preferences click on the first aid tab and look at the "change login keychain settings" check that box and your keychain will always be unlocked you could toggle it on and off as needed
Also with "keychain access" open go to the menu bar and click on the edit option and then click on "change settings for keychain login" if either of the top 2 boxes are checked uncheck them
It might be easier to use your login password to open your keychain and you can do this in this in the "keychain access" preferences in the first aid box just check the 2nd and 3rd check boxes and your keychain will unlock at login
Hope This Helps

I'm having a problem with keychain password, I never created Oneida

I Just ordered a new laptop and it is asking me for a keychain password which I have never created. can anyone help me?

I don't think you provided a login password when you setup the computer. Your Apple ID is not your password, but it can be used to change a password if you configured that option during setup. You need to assign a login password. This should also become your Keychain password.

I have problems with my macbook pro ... I recently bought "OS X Lion Mountain" but complete installation did not work ... purchases every time when I look biem appstore is still installed ... so now I have OS X version 10.8.3 ...

does it say not installed or does it say "download" in app store purchases?
if it say's download, then it's there for future use if you need to download it again.
see image below - i'm running Mountain Lion and it say's download in my App Store.

Are you using the latest version of Silverkeeper? - v.2.0.2 is stated to be compatible with Snow Leopard.

If it's messing things up you could try asking LaCie Support for assistance.

I have problem with my macbook pro after installing lion

You can do some basic diagnostics, first open Disk Utility and Repair Disk Permissions. If that does not help I woudl think you got a corrupt download of ML and need to re-download from the Mac App Store and reinstall. Hopefully you have been backing up and have a stable backup system.

Hi, After I installed Mac Lion, I have problem with the tamil font while typing in Neo Office. Especially with the letters "e-Ex: தெ" and "ai-Ex:தை". Please help me I know its not bug from Apple It shd be some problem in neo.

Is your problem due to the keyboard or to NeoOffice Characters? You have to change probably the font. Not all fonts are supporting all Unicode sets. Which font you have in your NeoOffice set to write Tamil? Try with Arial Unicode MS for example.
Are the letter e-Ex and ai-Ex right in your posting? If they are right, how you inserted these letters in your posting? By copy and paste or by typing? If by typing, your question is related to NeoOffice. Probably you should reinstall or update NeoOffice? Or switch to OpenOffice?

Does anyone have problems with hotspot connections or WLAN since they have installed Lion?

Does anyone have problems with hotspot connections or WLAN since they have installed Lion?

Same problem for me: Since update to Lion my WLAN connection to my router (AVM fritz!box fon 7141) get's lost almost every time the computer is on idle for a couple of minutes. Deactivating and reactivating helps, but of course only until the problem occurs again.
BTW: I'm running Mac OS X Lion (10.7.3) on a iMac 27" 3.2 GHz i3 (mid 2010 model).
I'm really annoyed by this problem and looking forward for APPLES fix.

Reinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Reinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility and press the Continue button. After Disk Utility loads select the Macintosh HD entry from the the left side list. Click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If Disk Utility reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit Disk Utility and return to the main menu.
Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
Alternatively, see:
Reinstall OS X Without Erasing the Drive
Choose the version you have installed now:
OS X Yosemite- Reinstall OS X
OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X

i cant login anywhere as all my passwords are saved in firefox, i cant even access teh firefox preference to get my password, it's so sad

You likley have a corrupted Firefox preference or other support file in your User/Library folder.
Programs load these files from the user account to adjust to user specifications, instead of having multiple copies of the same program on the machine.
So when you reinstalled Firefox, it reinstalled the progrma only and the user support files remained from before.
To prove this point, use System Preferences to create another Admin account and log into it, Firefox should run like a charm.
To remove the Firefox support files from the problem user account your going to need to locate these files and delete them one at a time and try FF again and again.
The first one you shoull try is your FF .plist file located in your User/Library folder.
Clicm on the Finder and use the Go > Go to Folder and paste this
~/Library/Preferences
and press Go.
Now scroll down until you see the Firefox or Mozilla .plist file and Trash it, quit and restart Firefox, it will recreate the preference file with default settings you will have to reset it.
Next run through the list of fixes #1-13 here before proceeding.
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3353
If you need help deleting other FF files, download the free Easy Find from MacUpdate.com and search for anything "Mozilla" or "Firefox" in your User account only and take your chances you hopefully won't delete your password file in the process.
You should have site passwords written down someplace and locked up tightin case you need them, a computer isn't totally safe and reliable.

So, in iTunes, when you look at the shuffle's content (in the sidebar) and click on the playlist under the shuffle, over to the right, the songs are in your desired order, correct? Where do you look, or what do you do, that indicates the playlists are in alphabetical order? Are you saying that when you play the songs while using the shuffle, they play in alphabetical order?
If so, when you listen to the songs on the shuffle, are you using the playlist, or are you using the All Songs list? If you are in the default All Songs list, with the shuffle's power switch set to play-in-order (the middle position), the songs play alphabetically, I believe.
The 3rd gen shuffle uses VoiceOver. If you are in the All Songs list, you need to use VoiceOver to switch to the playlist (see manual linked below for details). When you are in the playlist (with the shuffle's power switch set to play-in-order), then the songs should play in playlist order.
There are more details in the manual for the 3rd gen shuffle, which is online here
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPod_shuffle_3rdGen_UG.pdf
See page 22 for the section about setting up and using VoiceOver. The part about switching playlists starts on page 23 (Using the Playlist Menu).

Hi i'm using iphone 4 and i have problem with viber apps while i'm installing

hi i'm using iphone 4 and i have problem with viber apps while i'm installing & registration process its says error on system mainternance. can you please help me out?
thank you.

OK, let's try again. Wind is NOT a supported carrier. In order to use tethering, it must be supported and activated by your carrier for the iPhone. This usually involves an additional fee. You will have to ask your carrier if they can enable it. Odds are, since they are not a supported carrier, they can not. If you want to use tethering, you will most likely have to switch to a supported carrier that offers this feature on the iPhone.
A list of supported carriers can be found here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1937
