To get an instant map to any address, just go to your Address Book and right click on the address field of any one of your contacts and select "Map Of." The address will then be revealed in Google Maps on Safari. You can do the same if a data detector determines there is an address in an e-mail in Mail.

Even though "Keychain" is an important tool, I would like to know how to force a website to work with "Keychains" and store the relevant information, enabling an easy sign-in the next time I want to access that web-site.

You want 1Password.

SANTA;
If using Safari, open Safari Preferences... / Auto-fill
Check "User names and Passwords".
That's it.
On occasion you will hit a website with over zealous security that will not allow saving of user/password, but this is rare.

If you want to use a password, and you don't care whether you see it or not, just right-click on the appropriate key from the list in Keychain Access and select Copy Password to Clipboard. Then you just paste it into your browser, or wherever. Saves a couple of steps.

also - be a bit cautious when using keychain - we had a common password in our studio that everyone knew but if you access private info on a shared or work mac and let it get stored in keychain (already a bad idea), knowing the master password allowed me to retrieve other stored passwords for some work related sites a departing colleague had registered for and other personal passwords!... fortunately i'm a decent(ish) person and let the person know

Sometimes when I do this, I get:
Access to this item is restricted
... even though I have supplied the primary admin un/pw. What's up with that?

So what happens when you forget your keychain password?

The more important thing is how to get THE KEYCHAIN PASSWORD back. Since Leopard, you can set it back via the System DVD, i think that wasn't possible with 10.4, you could just set back all passwords BUT the keychain, so everything was still safe ..... now everyone can get your passwords via a leopard system DVD if they stole your mac. BEWARE ! (well i'm also happy about that because i could help a friend retrieve his master password like this, with 10.4 he would have had to delete the whole drive and Install Tiger again)
If this was already possible in Tiger and im just mistaken s1 tell me plz.
