<p>what do you mean with "after locating my key"? Did you transfer
your keys?</p>
<p>This sounds like you maybe only exported the public key. What
type to you see in GPG Keychain for the imported key? You can not
add UserIDs to public keys, so the behavior then would be
expected.</p>
<p>All the best,<br>

<p>You’re absolutely right. I had located my my existing
public key rather than transferring my private/public key pair to
my new computer. Apologies for the confusion, and thanks for
following up. I will mention that I am getting the recurring
message indicating that GPG Mail has expired and clicking
“Okay” causes the Mail application to quit. However, I
believe this has already been reported, and you’re probably
already aware of this issue—just sharing my experience.
Thanks!</p>
<p>Best Regards</p>
<p>Zach</p></div>Zachary Davistag:gpgtools.tenderapp.com,2011-11-04:Comment/352061662014-11-07T21:24:58Z2014-11-07T21:24:58ZCan't add User ID to existing Key<div><p>Zach, sounds like you know how to correct your mistake and
transfere sec/pub keys or your entire keyring to your new machine.
Great!</p>
<p>As for the issue: yes, that's a bug we are <em>very</em> aware
of. It is being investigated and we'll update, as soon as we have a
solution available.</p></div>Stevetag:gpgtools.tenderapp.com,2011-11-04:Comment/352061662014-11-10T21:35:06Z2014-11-10T21:35:32ZCan't add User ID to existing Key<div><p>Hi everybody,</p>
