However, if your login password and keychain passwords become out of sync, those systems will have trouble accessing your keychain and will have to ask for permission. When you first create a user account on your Mac, your login password and the password for your login keychain are in sync and systems that need to access the login keychain can do so when you’re logged in.
In order to work properly, the framework needs access to your login keychain, which manages usernames and passwords for accounts you use on your Mac. The Framework allows app developers to build access to accounts into their app without them having access to your usernames and passwords.
In this article, we’ll tell you what accountsd is, why it keeps asking for access to the login keychain, and what you should do about it.Īccountsd is the Accounts daemon, part of the Accounts Framework, which starts login credentials for apps and services you use on your Mac. One of these apparently minor irritations, but something that is also a symptom of a bigger problem is the message “accountsd wants to use the login keychain” appearing repeatedly on-screen.
When account information is out of sync, it can cause either minor irritations or major crashes. The Accountsd notification probably means your login and keychain passwords are out of sync.
