So I am fed up with Chrome. The pages just don't load like they used to. Also there are certain sites that I CANNOT use with Chrome. And each month more and more are not working.

I went back to Firefox but those pages are also not loading correctly. So I decided to give Safari my full attention. I now remember the main reason why I stopped using Safari. The answer is keychain.

So I have my passwords stored. I also have my parents passwords stored as I help them with a lot of stuff. I have my sister's passwords stored. I may have more then one acct with a particular company with a different login for each.

So I go to login and I get a pop up that says "Safari wants to use your confidential info stored ....., etc" and I press allow. Then I have to press allow again. Then I have to press allow a 3rd time AND I never know what profile they are going to provide as it just shows the web site but not the login.

So it puts one of them in there but not the one I want. If you click "deny" it still puts one in there. I don't understand keychain at all and it truly drives me batty.

I don't want to delete it because I think that may mess me up.

Can I deactivate keychain for Safari? Safari will still save my passwords right?

I am so frustrated right now and I totally remember why I was never a Safari user.

Please help. I may have 5 or more profiles for one web site and I have no idea which one keychain will decide to enter or why I have to press "allow" at least 3 times.

I did some searched for keychain stuff but nothing I came across helped. Usually a quick Google search solves 95% of different situations I encounter.

If it helps at all I am using a 2.5 year old 15" MacBook Pro running 10.8.2. ANd the Safari version is 6.0.2.

Please help!
