I put my Macbook Pro to sleep last night and when I came back it prompted me for my wireless login, which is odd because I have it saved in my keychain. Then it started prompting me for every password as I surfed the net. I checked my keychain and its empty! And any new password I try to save dosent save. I ran keychain first aid and I got this:


Verification started

Repair terminated unexpectedly

I also repaired permission in Disk Utility to no avail.

Ive also tried to create a new Keychain and it says theres an error when I do so.
 
Alright... for anyone who cares :rolleyes: I got it working again.

though Im not sure how. I deleted the keychain file all together, but it would not let me create a new one. So i decided to just create a new user with admin privileges. I rebooted and went to the new user and everything worked fine with the keychain. I logged out and went back to the old keychain and now that was working fine! And not only was it working fine but it had all my old passwords and such!??!? Huh? I deleted those! Whhhaaatever. It's working fine now. Thanks for the help... :p
 
Well, if it's any comfort, I'm glad you posted, and especially that you posted the solution. :) I wouldn't've been able to help, and only saw this thread now, but now I know what to try if my keychain does something weird. :eek:
