Ok brain trust, help me out here.
I purchased a new iMac 21" about a year ago. Prior to that I had been using a MBP 15" (2008) as my main system. Since I wanted the iMac to be my primary system, I wanted all the data from my MBP on the iMac, but did NOT use the setup wizard. What I did was create a clone of the MBP, installed my applications clean (ensuring I was installing the most recent versions), then manually copied all my data and user library items. All that happened with no problems.
My issue is with Keychain. I opened Keychain and imported the keychain from the MBP easily enough, but now everytime I reboot, I need to enter the password for that keychain.
Is there not a way to fully incorporate the previous keychain with the current one so I do not have to "authorize" its use every time?
Thanks
