Hello.

In the last two days I have had to do a clean install of my Mac again even 
though I did it last week.

What happened was that I shut my Mac down at the beginning of this week as I 
went away and didn't want anyone to get hold of the information in case there 
was a break-in. So I had passworded all the information.

On Thursday of this week, I got back and restarted the Mac. I was prompted for 
my pass word which I put in.

I was then asked for the keychain password as I had approved it from my I phone 
when I originally put it in. So the Mac did not like it. So when I finally got 
to the finder as I had reset my keychain, I was continually asked for my key 
chain and thus I had to re-install twice because the first time the information 
had not deleted properly.

So my problem is, if I have an issue that I am asked for a keychain again as I 
have approved it from my I phone, I may have the same problem again. I don't 
like giving the keychain a passcode because I'm texted a very complicated 
password to unlock it. There is no option in the Mac key chain to get your 
device approved from another device when your Mac is asking for its keychain. 
So what do people do on this list if they are asked for their Mac keychain when 
they switch their Macs on if they want to approve it from their I phone as I 
can see no option?

Sorry about a long message but this was the only way to explain. At least I 
have had practice doing a Clean install, perhaps a silver lining!

Kawal.
