LazyWeb: A Keychain item that won't unlock?
permanent link
· Topic/MacOSX
Has anybody seen this before? In Keychain Access, there are many items that I can't unlock to see the current password. Clicking on the "show password" checkbox, which normally should ask you permission and then show the current password in the field next to the checkbox, has no effect ... clicking the checkbox registers briefly, but the checkbox won't stay checked.
I've tried repairing the keychain with "Keychain First Aid" but it checks out just fine....
Any ideas on what might be happening? I sort of want to be able to access these items...
