  2. If you don`t have a Keychain setup then you will be asked if you would like to set one up. Choose yes. Then you will get a box like this.

You will have to give this Keychain a Name and a Password. We recommend that you use your Mac user name and password that you use to log in with when you start your computer.

You now have set up the Keychain on your Macintosh.
