Codesign wants to access key “access” in your keyc

Question

I'm trying to learn to load apps on my iPhone from Xcode. When I do I keep getting "Codesign wants to access key "access" in your keychain, I put I my login password but it keeps popping up over and over. I've tried my computer login so many times, apple account password, and many others.

Answer 1

I have the same problem, and a reboot prevents it from opening the dialog.

Answer 2

Solve this problem by doing this.

1. Enter your Mac Login Password and Choose "Always Allow"

2. One or More dialogs opened and positioned in the same dialog, repeat step 1 until all dialogs closed. (So you thought your password wrong but repeat "Always Allow" with your Mac login password tricky part :) )

Hope it will work.

Answer 3

For me, the problem was caps lock. and it seems it may ask you a couple of times to input your password or you will have to enter a password once and press always allow.

Answer 4

For me, I realized one of the dialogs was opened in another workspace. Once I discovered that and input my password there it went through.

Answer 5

As of August 31, 2018.

Resolving:
 1.  Search Keychain Access
 2.  [KEYCHAIN] Login | [CATEGORY] Passwords
 3.  Look for you email address and double click. <it might not be necessary but just try this>
 4. [ACCESS CONTROL] choose  "allow all application to access this item".
 5. Rebuild to your phone.  If you have error choose a virtual device and build (to reset the build objects).  Then choose to rebuild to your phone again.

Answer 6

I pressed Deny by mistake and I was stuck, no way to code sign any Pods.

This is how I solved the problem:

• Open the keychain
• look for the key com.apple.gs.xcode.auth.com.apple.account.AppleIDAuthentication.token
• open it
• click on the Access Control tab
• at the bottom there's Always allow access for these applications: -> add Xcode in the list
• Don't forget to press Save Changes
