Export/Import secure & public key from one to another machine
Hi
Does anybody how how I can export my whole key chain pair (from macbook) and import it on my iMac? Both are running latest versions of GPGTools and GPGMail? The reason is quite simple since I work at least on two machines.
Many thanks !

Hi waldrausch,
the easiest way is to open GPG Keychain Access (GPG Schlüsselbund) and select all keys.
After that, click on export, check "Export secret keys" enter a filename like keys.asc and click OK.
On your iMac simply open GPG Keychain Access and import the keys.asc.
That should be all.
Let us know if it worked!

Yep, just found it out and it worked fine. Shame on me since I didn't recognize this check box :)
Cheers. Ralph
