Keep my Keychain secure... How can I customise it?

How can I set my iCould Keychain to automatically (or manually) lock after a few minutes of inactivity, without also locking the default login Keychain?
I do know this. But it doesn't work as I expect or want.
Basically I want only my passwords for web forms and internet passwords to be stored in iCloud Keychain so I can use auto fill and sync between iOS and OS X. Because I don’t know any of my passwords, they’re generated using Keychain. But I don’t want my Wi-Fi and email passwords etc to be locked as well. Only Safari.
But if I lock my iCloud Keychain without locking the default login Keychain, I still get prompted with email password etc.
I’ve tried moving anything that isn’t passwords for web forms and internet passwords into the default login Keychain. Doesn’t work either. Which I don’t understand, because as I read it and understand it. That is exactly what Apple writes in the Keychain Access Help menu under Secure for Keychain. I’ve tried creating a new Keychain that can lock automatically, but they don’t sync with iOS. So that's a no go. And have a Keychain with a Keychain.
I think I would love to separate my Safari logins from my admin password. Because I can’t like how Safari/Keychain displays all my URLs and usernames by hitting cmd+komma. But on the same time, I don’t wanna lock every other password for wifi, Twitter notications and email and what not.
I’m finding the Keychain VERY hard manage.
English isn’t my mother tongue, so perhaps I read something that isn’t there? Can someone explain to me, what i don’t understand?
I'm running OS X 10.9.2 and iOS 7.1

Try running Keychain Access/First Aid and resetting the original keychain.

    My Apple id keeps getting reset. How can I stop this?

    That's fine. I just didn't understand, but suspected that's what you meant.
    You should contact Apple about this. Go to this website, find your country, and call Apple and ask to speak to Account Security about this.

  • After updating to mavericks I have to constantly enter my apple ID for mail, iBooks, iTunes and many other applications that used to be part of my keychain. How can I get my log-in to work again?

    After updating to mavericks I have to constantly enter my apple ID for mail, iBooks, iTunes and many other applications that used to be part of my keychain. How can I get my apple ID log-in to work again?

    Several times I've re-entered my passwords under Preferences/Internet Accounts/iCloud and it won't save since I've installed Mavericks.  Also, the iCloud icon in the left column in Preferences/Internet Accounts/iCloud is greyed out but allows me to click on it to set-up.  When I click on iCloud the password is filled out but the "Enable this account" check-box is not checked.  I check it, and all seems correct.  The icon is no longer grey, the password is correct, the "activate this account" check-box is checked.  Then, when I launch mail, notes etc. I'm still prompted to re-enter my apple ID.  The log-in loop continues.  For years my keychain has worked perfectly.  What has changed in Mavericks?

    My MacBook Pro keyboard not working correctly after Win7 bootcamp installation.

    Hi - I have the exact same model as your MacBook and had a few questions as mine is acting up. I upgraded the ram to 8gb (2x 4GB ram) and ever since then my computer has not been running as smoothly and the start up time is horrendous. Have you encountered this problem? And if so how did you fix? What would you advise me do?
    I was thinking of reverting back to the original factory 4GB then rebooting the entire computer. Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,
    I have accomplished through the creation of a Menu in oracle Forms. After setting up your menu options, go to the "Visible In Horizontal Menu Toobar" property and set to YES. Then change the "Icon Filename" property to whatever your icon file is.
    Good luck!

    Hi, 
    Waveform, XY, intensity, digital waveform support multiple x- and y-scales, and all charts support multiple y-scales. Mixed signal graphs support only one x-scale. Use multiple scales on a graph or chart to display multiple plots that do not share a common x- or y-scale.
    Complete the following steps to add a scale to a waveform graph or chart.
    Right-click the scale of the waveform graph or chart and select Duplicate Scalefrom the shortcut menu.
    To move the new scale to the opposite side of the display, right-click the new scale and select Swap Sides from the shortcut menu.
    Associate a plot to the new scale by right-clicking the plot in the plot legend and select from the X Scale or Y Scale shortcut menus. If the plot legend is not visible, right-click the graph or chart and select Visible Items»Plot Legend from the shortcut menu.
    To change the range of the new scale, use the Operating tool or the Labeling tool to highlight the end value(s) of the scale and enter a new value. If you set the scale manually, you should disable autoscaling.
    I did not get the second part of your question, please clarify on that.

  • When using Foxfire I keep getting "not responding", how can I fix this?

    When using foxfire I keep getting "not responding" How can I correct this?

    If this is happening with one or two specific sites, those site may have been hacked, or they may simply be bad sites.
    If it's happening with a larger number of sites, and with sites that are legit (like Google, Yahoo, Facebook, etc), then it's likely that your wireless router has been hacked. See:

  • My mac keeps freezing...How can I uninstall lion?

    My mac keeps freezing on me, particularly when Im on safari. The most annoying part is that it happens three or four times in a matter of an hour, and then Im prompted to submit a report that feels like a joke considering that we have yet to see an update for lion solving this issue, and the problem persists. How can I uninstall lion and get macs previous iOS back?

    Downgrade Lion to Snow Leopard
    1.  Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button.  When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Quit DU and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard.
    This will erase the whole drive so be sure to backup your files if you don't have a backup already. If you have performed a TM backup using Lion be aware that you cannot restore from that backup in Snow Leopard (see below.) I suggest you make a separate backup using Carbon Copy Cloner 3.4.1.
    If you have Snow Leopard Time Machine backups, do a full system restore per #14 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions.  If you have subsequent backups from Lion, you can restore newer items selectively, via the "Star Wars" display, per #15 there, but be careful; some Snow Leopard apps may not work with the Lion files.
