So, I find myself working on Macs while i’m on campus here, and whenever I use Safari, it keeps nagging me to log into my keychain. Since I don’t particularly feel like using the keychain that this computer seems to offer to everyone who uses the classroom login, I was wondering if it’s possible to make a keychain that applies only to me, that I could keep on my USB thumbdrive.
Any suggestions?
Ummm… yes, that’s do-able. From Apple’s website:
1 Open Keychain Access, located in Applications/Utilities.
2 Choose File > New Keychain.
3 Type a name and choose a location for the keychain, then click Create.
4 Type a password for the keychain. For help in choosing a good password, click the key button to the right of the Password field to open the Password Assistant.
5 To make the new keychain your default keychain, click Show Keychains, select your new keychain from the list, and choose File > Make Keychain (new keychain name) Default.
