I installed GPGTools last night, and installed the nightly build of the GPGServices package. I shut down my computer, and when I restarted my computer (OS X 10.6.8) and booted up GPGTools this morning, My keychain contains none of the Public keys that I pasted last night, and (more troublingly) neither of my generated private keys. Is there somewhere they might be stored that I can find them? What happened?

   Hey Jason, I haven't heard of such behavior before.

   Sorry to hear you are having trouble. Have you already uploaded the created keys to a key server?

   If not, I'd suggest to simply create a new key and see if this time it sticks. The keys should not get touched because of a system restart.

   Let us know if you encounter more problems or if this still is broken for you. Which version of GPG Keychain Access are you using?

   All the best,
   steve
