Keychain issues

[kobe80]

Hi friends,

 

I've been getting a lot of keychain issues, the latest one I'm getting, I'm so far not able to fix. Trying to figure out if it's a Sierra thing, or just my installation, or combo with hardware.. or how to fix, other than deleting 'keychains' folder, or creating a new keychain. 

 

1st issue: Specifically, I was using Outlook 2016 (Mac obviously), & I couldn't log into my email. I have 2 accounts set up but one would always give me problems. I finally realized that resetting keychain or deleting that key fixed the problem. Not such a problem anymore, however it seems to come back every now & then. 

2nd issue: Wi-Fi. This one I've not figured out yet. my Wi-fi won't stay connected, and when I try to connect, it says 'a keychain cannot be found for (network name), then has a reset button, but that button seems to reset the entire keychain for everything. So I do it, then reboot, and still has the problem! wi-fi not connected automatically. I go connect manually, same pop-up, same problem.. every time I reset and it doesn't fix it. 

I'm about ready to just reinstall Sierra but I'd rather know what's going on so I can just fix it if possible, and not have it come up again. 

My setup, if it might matter:

Asus X99-A
Intel 5960X (8-core) i7
Sierra 10.12.5

Clover

That's the best option IMHO.

 

Or, if you have another HDD/SSD, try install macOS on it to not lose your job, and start all again.

A while back I had the same issue with keychain on a MacBook Pro Mid 2015 and no matter what I did, the problem stayed the same.

I ended up reinstalling the macOS Sierra all over again.

I tried almost anything but none of them solved the problem.

 

The only thing I didn't do was to create a new user because I did rather to reinstall the macOS.
