Keychain (Mac): Atomatic login for specific keychain items?

Asked by makemo (531points) August 25th, 2008

Let’s say, for instance, the application Daylite: each time you open it, it asks for login and password to its databse. At that stage, since it’s been saved to the system’s Keychain, you just have to press the OK button and it’ll use the credentials you have in the Daylite keychain.

My question is:

Is it possible to set the Keychain for Daylite to automatically enter and confirm the pass/login, without me having to click on OK each time I open Daylite? Can you do this on a per application basis?

Great Q. Would be useful for sites too.

As far as I’m aware, there is no way of doing this using Keychain. There is at least one third-party application, 1Password, that can do it for websites.

Used that previously. Works great, but I’d like a in-build feature.
