Runing macos Mojave now, and am allowing apps to access all kinds of resources that was available to them earlier without my explicit consent. However - I do get one pop-up telling me the following:
“node wants to use the “Local Items” Keychain, please enter the password”
I can’t figure out which app is asking. If it’s “node.js” it could be any app or service using that framework, right? This far I have opted to not grant permissions, but I do feel this is not the most illuminating dialog box.
Usually it’s sharingitems, which negotiates AirDrop, Handoff, Instant Hotspot, Shared Computers, and Remote Disc. Or it could be the Login keychain - you might find the link below to be useful:
I got this too, and I ran “ps aux | grep node” from the terminal and I’ve seen a couple of programs show up. One was Videostream. Another is Adobe Creative Cloud:
I just started seeing this password request about a week ago. I have Adobe Creative Cloud installed so it’s likely that, but it’s happening every day. Every day I enter my password and the next day it asks again… Any way to fix this?
I’ve been fighting this same problem for a while, but now it’s just become unbearable.
What fixed it for me was…
1.) Go to Finder
2.) Select the “Go” panel
3.) Hold down “Option” and Library will popup. (This takes you to your temp files I believe.)
4.) Find Keychain and delete everything in the folder. NOT the Keychain folder itself, but the files in it.
I got the same message this morning after waking macbook pro after 2 days of sleep.
I ran “ps aux | grep node” in terminal and saw Slack and Adobe applications only, so probably Adobe as most people have been saying, but could also be Slack.
Either way, both are above board programs so I entered the password.
Just wanted to say thanks for this. I had been having prompts for node and Adobe CC applications since updating my password through Jamf Connect on my work mac. Aswell as this 1Password would not activate in Safari.
Clearing the keychains folder, restarting and then enter all my passwords again for Microsoft apps and Adobe Creative Cloud has done the trick. No more keychain prompts and I can use Safari again!
Had the same issue. A request popped up for the keychain master password every time I boot up my mac or open an adobe CC application. Turns out Adobe Creative Cloud was causing the trouble (at least in my case).
Uninstalling and reinstalling Creative Cloud fixed the issue for me. If you are unable to uninstall creative cloud due to other applications using it follow the following steps:
Locate “Uninstall Adobe Creative Cloud” in Finder > Applications > Adobe Creative cloud
