Keychain Not Found - Mac OS 10.6.8 (annoying pop up won't go away)

[giunta13]

I've been running Spotify for a few weeks now previously with Leopard and I think OS 10.5.9. After videos weren't playing in Chrome I decided to upgrade to Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and now everytime I login to Spotify I repeatedly get an annoying popup saying:

-- Keychain Not Found - Keychain "login" cannot be found to store "proxy_pass."

My options are to Cancel (which only results in the popup going away for a few minutes) or Reset To Defaults (which then asks me Are you sure you want to reset your keychain? This will delete all your saved passwords, keys, and certificates? You cannot undo this operation.) This has done nothing either.

Any ideas on how to fix this? Thank you!

Hey! Welcome to the community 🙂 

That is strange, can you try a clean reinstallation and see if that helps?

Tried this last night and popups are still here. Good idea though.

A quick google threw this up as an issue and a possible solution:

"Navigate to your Applications folder, then to Utilities. From there open up Keychain Access. Once Keychain is open, click Keychain Access in your navigation bar at the top and select Keychain First Aid. Run the repair and then run verify." 

Worth a shot?
