Adobe Keeps Asking For Password Mac

With the Publish Sensitive Information action in Acrobat Pro DC, you’ll be guided through a series of steps to redact, password-protect, and save with edit and copy restrictions applied automatically. In this post, I’ll show you how to stop OS X from asking for a password after waking up your Mac. How to stop having to log in to your Mac every time. Obviously, if security is important to you, you should avoid what I’m about to share.

After you or your Mac administrator resets the password of your macOS user account, your Mac might ask you to update your keychain password or enter the password of your login keychain. It might also tell you that the system was unable to unlock your login keychain. That's because your login keychain is still using your old password.

If you know your old password, use that password to update your existing login keychain:

  1. Open the Keychain Access app, which is in the the Utilities folder of your Applications folder.
  2. From the list of keychains on the left side of the window, select 'login.'
  3. From the Edit menu in the menu bar, choose “Change Password for Keychain 'login.'”
  4. Enter the old password of your user account in the Current Password field. This is the password you were using before the password was reset.
  5. Enter the new password of your user account in the New Password field. This is the password you're now using to log in to your Mac. Enter the same password in the Verify field.
  6. Click OK when done, then quit Keychain Access.
