I've got two problems, first is the login keychain. It seems like since I've got my MacBook, the login keychain has always been incorrect. Whenever I start up Adium (log in), Skype (log in) or Safari it asks for my login keychain password. I tried every single password I've ever used and nothing. I know for a fact that I didn't set it and forget it because I wrote down every password that I've used for my Mac. How do I set/reset this?

Second is my biggest gripe with my Mac, cropping. Back on PCs, I'd save a picture, open it up in paint, crop it, copy it, clear the current picture, set the attributes to 1 x 1 then paste so it would fit perfectly. I can't find a simple way to do this on my Mac! I've used Paintbrush and a couple others but they're all too complex. I just need something simple like Paint!

Thanks

Try Preview, its simple enough and should be in your Applications Folder.
 
I can crop + copy on that but I can't paste it in a blank page like I could in paint. In order to paste, I need to bring up another picture :S.

If you've copied your image to the clipboard, when you open a new Preview document, (File -> New) it will automatically place the image from the clipboard in the new document.

Couldn't be easier.
