<p>frist off, GPG Keychain Access does not save your keys in an asc
file but in the gnupg keyring. So did you export all your keys into
the asc file as a backup option?</p>
<p>Could you please (again) try the latest <a href=
"https://nightly.gpgtools.org">nightly Installer</a> and see if
that helps? Run that and import the asc file you've created.</p>
<p>Also if you still experience issues after running the latest
nightly installer, please also try the GPG Keychain Access
nightly.</p>
<p>Let us know how that goes,<br>
best, steve</p></div>Stevetag:gpgtools.tenderapp.com,2011-11-04:Comment/237560872013-01-18T17:54:21Z2013-01-18T17:54:22ZCan't import my private or public keys after installing nightly build of installer<div><p>Thank you very much for your suggestion! I downloaded the
nightly build of the entire GPG Tools package and re-installed it
and that was able to fix the problem!!!!<br>
I was also had a security question regarding the exportation of
keys for backups. When I exported my private key, it does not ask
for my passphrase. Is that because the private key that I export is
still encrypted by my passphrase? So if someone were to walk by my
computer when it was open, could they access my secret key just by
clicking export keys? Thanks you for your help!!</p>

solved. Let's continue in the other open discussion about your
security question. I'll try to answer when I find the time.</p>
<p>Glad the nightly did solve your importing issue.</p>
<p>best,<br>
