iMac: How to disable Keychain Access or keep it from asking for password again?

Dear experts:

Hi!

I got a couple of iMacs in my office recently. Everytime I opened Safari, it asked for keychain access password.
I found it irritating. I wonder whether there is a good way to resolve the problem.

Thanks!

TO: Arthur:

Thank you so much for your kind tip.

I tried your tips, but it still keeps asking for keychain password.

I would like to stop the key chain asking for password.

The iMac in question is used by hundreds of domain users.


Thanks!

This typically happens when the keychain password does not match the login password for the user account.  Try This:

1. Open Keychain Access
2. Click on Edit Menu
3. Select "Change Password for Keychain..."
4. Set the "New Password" to match the user account password.
