Minecraft wants to access key "mojangTokenService" in your keychain

Every time the launcher updates, there is a series of popups (2-4), shown in the attached image. Clicking "Always Allow" only prevents one of the popups until the next launcher update.

I experienced this too. The way I was able to fix this was by opening the 'Keychain Access' app, finding all of the 'mojangTokenService' entries and deleting them. Then I logged in again, went back to the 'Keychain Access' app, two-finger clicked the new entry, went to the 'Access Control' tab and added Minecraft.app to the list by pressing the '+' icon in the left hand corner. After you have done that, press 'Allow all applications to access this item' and press Save Changes. After relaunching the Minecraft app, you will not see that keychain popup again.

This doesn't work when using two minecraft application installs with separate directories, such as the case when using the Curseforge launcher. Both the direct-from-mojang install and the Curseforge install ask each time, if the other was the one opened last (even after following those steps)

Hi there Avakining!

Does solution provided by y2k4 work on your vanilla installation of the Launcher (without cursefordge)?

This ticket will automatically reopen when you reply.

Issue should not occur anymore for MacOs 12.1+. Closing the ticket as "Fixed".

The issue appears on MCL version 2.4.79. The macOS version is the same as in the original bug report.

This is how MacOS works

This bug is happening again.

Just happened in MacOS 13.5.

@unknown: This ticket has already been resolved as working as intended, which means this is not considered a bug and won't be fixed. Please do not leave a comment on this ticket.

Can someone explain the pop-up? This happens to me too…
