Keychain "login" Problems   Can't remember my Keychain password.  Admin Password also does not help. Mac Mini(Late 2012) OS 10.10.2

Series of Keychain "Login" Problems.
Hardware: Mac Mini (Late 2012)  2.5 GHz Intel COre i5,  4GB 1600 MHz DDR3
OS X : 10.10.2 upgraded yesterday
Mail wants to use "login" keychain.   I enter Password but no success.
CalendarAgent wants to use "login" keychain.   I enter Password but no success.
Com.apple.internetaccounts.xpc wants to you "login" keychain. Password, not successful.
At some point in past days I was offered to rename Keychain, so I did.
In Keychain Access, I deleted "Login"    and selected Delete references.
Just now I went into ~/Library/Keychains and found Login.Keychain and Login_renamed.Keychain.
I have renamed Login.keychain -> Login-old.keychain.
I renamed Login_renamed.keychain-> Login.Keychain.
In Keychain Access, I added "Login" back.  This should be the renamed keychain.
Original problems still persist.  No noticeable changes.
Keychain wants to use the "Login" keychain.   Can't remember my password or it is incorrect.
Help?
TITLprods

I turned off and turned on the computer.  When restarting it said that it could not use the Login and did I want to create a new or use and alternate?  I created new and for the moment things seem to be working under the command of the "New Login"
That still doesn't really alleviate the problem of the old login.

  • HDMI On Mac Mini Late 2012: Problem with hardware?

    Just converted from PC to Mac.
    Purchased latest mac mini (Late 2012 version)
    Have tried several monitors through HDMI port and each time the picture quality is poor with very bad text resolution.
    Have tried HDMI to HDMI  and also tried HDMI to DVI adaptor.
    This is with full 1080p 27 inch samsung monitor and HP 2010i monitor.
    Is there a problem with the HDMI port on this new mac mini?
    The monitors I have are fine and are crystal sharp when connected to PC.
    Many thanks if you can answer this

    OK. So I have now tried LG 27 Inch E2742 Monitor as follows:
    1) Mini display to DVI-D : Picture good with decent text resolution
    2) HDMI-HDMI: Picture poor with poor colour and text resolution. This is not a calibration issue.
    The samsung monitor 27 inch series 3 also has poor picture and colour and text resolution with HDMI-HDMI. Again this is not a calibration issue. It does not have a DVI-D input to test the minidisplay port.
    So it seems the HDMI port is not working properly but the minidisplay one is ok as I suspected.
    From reading the other threads it seems this is a common problem including those people that have taken their minis back for an exchange and experienced same problem.
    Is there likely to be a software update to resolve this?

  • Can I install and use any 2.5" SATA hard disk on my Mac Mini (Late 2012)?

    I have a Mac Mini (Late 2012) which is currently housing a 500GB SATA hard disk. Unfortunately read errors have been detected and it seems to be slowing down. I want to replace this with another 500GB SATA hard disk and I was wondering whether any notebook (2.5") hard disk would work or whether I have to look for one with specific specs (such as RPM, SATA version, etc).
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Any 2 1/2 inch STA HD will work as long as the height is 9.5 mm or less. All most all meet this requirement except very larger capacity ones
    I would opt for a SSD since those are a lot faster than a 2 1/2 HD and now they are very reasonably priced.
    You can consider installing a second disk to using:

  • My mac mini late 2012 is having resolution problems?

    My mac mini late 2012 is having resolution problems?
    Tried resetting PRAM and SMC but still nothing works.
    Sometimes is goes back to normal. But then suddenly when I startup or wake up from sleep it changes to resolution 800x600 and stays there..
    I'm using my Thunderbolt port with my minidisplay port to vga, because i don't have a HD monitor.
    Does anyone have a solution?

    Hmmm, not sure on the startup, but on the sleep angle...
    Well first...
    Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.
    Then maybe...
    See if it's related to this...

  • Can I use my old 8GB 1067MHZ DDR3 in Macbook with Mac Mini late 2012 1600 MHZ DDR3

    I am thinking about using my 8GB 1067 DDR3 from my old Macbook into my new Mac Mini late 2012 that uses 4GB 1600MHZ DDR3
    Can I do it?
    Thanks

    Your Late 2012 Mac mini requires a different type of RAM respecting to the RAM that your MacBook Pro uses, so you cannot use it with your Mac mini. If you try to use it, you will get kernel panics or your Mac may not start up.
    You can buy more RAM at OWC or Crucial. Always get RAM that meets your Mac specifications

  • Can I upgrade the Hard Drive on my Mac Mini (Late 2012)?

    I bought a Late 2012 Mac Mini from Fry's. This was a mistake, never again.
    Back to the point. I have 1Tb of HDD. My hope is that upgrading that to a Fusion Drive will improve performance. Is it even available for a box I already own (and acquired from an infidel)? If so, how much will that cost?

    mrdwongsf this discussion concerns the late 2102 Mini. That model has two SATA connectors on the logic board. You seem to be discussing the 2014 Mini which, only has one STA port and one PCIe port as you describe
    mrdwongsf wrote:
    From iFixit's breakdown, it's not that simple or not possible because they removed the SATA port from the motherboard, but you should be able to install a PCIe SSD (blade-style). They have not verified that mod yet.

  • Help! Can't install SSD in my new Mac Mini Server (2012)

    Previously I've purcahsed Mac Mini servers and removed one of the two drives, replacing it with an OWC SSD. The hardware change was not hard to do and resulted in incredibly good computers for my employees to use which allowed us to retire several old, slow and abandoned-by-Apple Mac Pros. There were no issues with reformatting the computers after they had SSDs put in.
    Today I took delivery of a new Mac Mini server, and started to do the same thing, removing the top HDD and sliding in my SSD, since I have many of them around. Unfortunately, the OS would NOT let me format the disks separately or remove the RAID. The volumes (the original 1 TB that was inside and my 480GB SSD) were both colored red when I booted into Internet Restore mode and ran Disk Util, something I've never seen before, and all it would do was say "there was a problem with your disk, would you like to revert it to a working state?" which in this case means Disk Util forcing my drives back into a RAID whether I want them that way or not. (At one point it fused my SSD and the 1TB drive into a single logical drive that had the correct size but didn't show separate sections, and couldn't be de-RAIDED at all, even when I connected to another computer with the Mac Mini in Firewire target mode.)
    I gave up and put a 240 SSD in the lower bay, resulting in a 760GB RAID of two mismatched SSD sizes, which isn't what I wanted but I guess it will do. So far it seems to be working.
    My question is, why in the heck is Apple forcing me to run my computers as a RAID and/or not letting me break the system into one hard drive and one RAID, which is what I want? (Having the backup disk right inside the computer is very handy.)  Is this some feature to keep us from "making our own" Fusion drives? If Apple is deciding we can't hack or do anything interesting with Mac Minis, this will the last one I purchase, and I'm sure there will be others who do the same.
    Since replacing one HDD with an SDD is likely to be the most popular mode imaginable for Mac Minis, can anyone tell me if they got a similar setup to work, and if so what did you do? Can you post the steps here for others who will be in this situation?

    I'm not sure how or what is different between the Standard 2012 Mac Mini and the 2012 Server...? However it looks like your Server also uses Fusion like or similar to the regular Mac Mini's.
    "The version of Disk Utility that comes with Fusion Drive is unique. Earlier versions of Disk Utility can't be used with a Fusion Drive."

  • HT1338 mini late 2012 fan system problem

    Welcome,
    I have problem with my mac mini late 2012 with fan system i think becouse my fan's rate still show me 1800rpm (while temp. is 49oC and when is over 80oC)
    I tried reset SMC but it still doesn't work.

    One thing that Apple does well is build very quiet machine's and by default the fan will eventually ramp up without third party fan control utilities. The problem is that, the default settings are way out there at around 90c and then at that point the fan gets kicked up to full speed until things cool off. Like you, many of us here also think that is a really bad way to treat hardware and use some type of third party Fan Control utilities.
    For example: I have one of the first Intel iMac's, an Early 2006 Core Duo and have used smcFanControl on it from the day it was new. For over 7 years I have ran it's fans from 100 rpm over default in the winter to 500 or 600 rpm over the default in the summer and it has never had a single overheating or hardware issue. It is maxed out at 2GB of RAM and can only run Snow Leopard, but I have kept it, because it is still a very good machine for the grandkids to learn and play games on.
    On my Mac Mini running Mountain Lion I also use Fan Control 1.2 and really like it over smcFanControl because I don't have to worry about having different speed sets for different activities or seasons.
    Here are my Mac Mini's Fan Control settings.
    (sorry I'm old and still use F to know how cold and hot things are)
    If you would like to increase the set point that the fan starts ramping up, increase the Lower Threshold slider.
    If you would like to have the fan speed ramp up at a slower/flater rate, increase the Upper Threshold slider.

  • Keychain login problems

    After I have updated to Snow Leopard from Tiger I keep on getting the message: cannot find the "login" to keychain. It slows down my computer as well. What to do?

    something is seriously wrong with your keychain then. have you tried keychain first aid? if that does not help quit keychain access and go to the directory homedirectory/library/keychains. what do you have in there? do you see login.keychain? if so move it to the desktop and log out/in. a new blank login keychain will be generated. open keychain access and see if it shows up and is open.

    I have mistakenly deleted a mail folder in which I had created. I can't remember if it was located to 'iCloud' or 'On My Mac'. How can I retrieve the emails contained in this deleted folder? Your help will be immensely appreciated!

    Yeah not a problem. It does seem though that if you did not have a Time Machine backup then you may not be able to recover the deleted folder :/ But for future reference to prevent any of this, a Time Machine backup is a great investment.
    What it does is create an entire backup of your computer anything from personal information down to the screen saver.
    What you first need is a new external hard drive (I would recommend a 1TB or higher just to prevent running out of space soon).
    after that, just plug in the drive to your computer.
    once it is plugged in, in the top right hand corner, close to the wi-fi symbol, you should see a symbol that looks like a clock with a backwards arrow around it.
    click on that and select "open time machine preferences"
    just turn the button to the "on" position, and select the backup drive and Time Machine does the rest
    very great tool
