    I keep getting requests from "accountsd" to enter my icloud keychain password, trouble is I've no recollection of ever setting one up. Any

    Never had to use it but there’s some info on how to reset the password.

    You could first try your user login password (usual default?).

    over automatically.

    Bah! Just realised you said iCloud Keychain - maybe this can help or you might need to call Apple Support :(

    Thanks I'll work through that and see what happens.

    Passwords are stored in the key-chain.

    On first launching it I got a pop-up saying I would have to install
    Rosetta to use it. NB it's Elements, not the pro package.

    most are native, with just a few left to update.

    My version is too old apparently. Problem now is it worked yesterday and
    has failed to load this morning, odd.

    Also the download is machine specific I've discovered so won't run
