Keychain access

[Kenny1402]

hi my mac book pro has recently started popping up with keychain access and no matter how many times I enter my password keeps coming back up any idea's?

The most effective solution to the Keychain access corruption issue is to go to ~/Library/Keychains and delete the contents. Do NOT delete the Keychains folder itself. After this restart your computer. This will generate a default keychain using your CURRENT login password.

Please keep in mind that any credentials that were managed by Keychain Access will need to be reentered.

Agreed. When keychain goes sideways, it can be difficult to diagnose and fix.

I will add though, that if you recently changed your password, enter your OLD password to update it. That is a long known issue.
