I have just deleted my first keychain because it seemed to be corrupted. I could not modify it and if I tried it would hang the App that was trying to modify it.
I recently had a kernel panic so I am thinking that maybe the corruption was caused by that. What my problem is now I cannot use the connect tom iDisk in the Go menu. I get a window saying that I have to fill in my iTools member info in Prefs.app. I have all the info in prefs.app and it keeps bringing up the window telling me to fill in my info in prefs (which is there and stays there)

Anyone with some info? I would like to have my iDisk working as expected and not have to Connect to Server...

Well, I fixed my own problem! This will be a good note to people out their who are having their computer (or Apps) ask for Keychain Access all the time. What happens is if you reset your main keychain (the one with your username) and change its password from your default password Applications will start asking because they are unable to automatically unlock the keychain.

bla, bla, bla, hope this makes sense. Don't change your main kaychain's Password or its name from your username.
