Having problems with setting Keychain password on mac. Help?

I have a mac os x and i used the installation disk 10.6.3 to reset the account password to login, and it said that i would have to also reset the keychain one as well to make sure it’s the same as the account password – which as far as i’m concerned i did! I’ve looked online and followed the instructions now 10 times over (going to utilities, selecting keychain access then edit – change keychain password. and i also tried preferences – reset my default keychain) to set it the same as the account one and it seemed to be set.
But whenever i try and do something that it needs administrator name & password it doesn’t accept the password! I’m no expert with this sort of thing so can someone please suggest what i might need to check or something else i could try? I’m currently trying to put together a edited video for my grandparents 50th anniversary and it needs to be done in the next week, as i need to use final cut for this and it wont let me use it without the password – you have no idea how much i would appreciate some help right now :(
