<p>GPGMail is not a standalone app. You won't see it in your
program folder. It's a plug-in for apples mail.app. Go to mail.app
> settings and there you'll see an entry for the plug-in.</p>
<p>GPGTools isn't a stand-along software as well. It's the name for
all the tools we provide. So no need to search in your program
folder yet again.</p>
<p>Again, this is a good starting point:<br>

<p>I don't actually use Apple's Mail application and I'm not trying
to encrypt<br>
messages for email either. I want to encrypt messages to send over
certain<br>
forums that I use. A few people who I know who use GPG have it
linked up to<br>
TextEdit and use TextEdit for writing their messages and encrypting
them.</p>
<p>Apparently there should be an option under System Preferences to
connect<br>
GPG and TextEdit, however I don't appear to have that option as I
can't<br>
find it.</p>
<p>Any help?<br>
Thanks again</p></div>Mikey Quinntag:gpgtools.tenderapp.com,2011-11-04:Comment/124277842011-12-28T15:46:11Z2011-12-28T15:46:11ZRe: [GPGTools] Importing other people's public keys [Everything]<div><p>Hi Mikey,</p>
<p>if you used our GpGTools Installer you already habe
everything<br>
you need. There's no Need to "connect" any apps.<br>
If you select a text in TextEdit and click the right mouse Button
you should<br>
see the entry Services at the bottom and this entry should<br>
have a submenu where you find OpenPGP: Encrypt.<br>
Use that Option to encrypt the text.</p>
<p>Let us know if that worked out for you.</p></div>Luke Letag:gpgtools.tenderapp.com,2011-11-04:Comment/124277842011-12-28T16:11:48Z2011-12-28T16:11:48ZRe: [GPGTools] Importing other people's public keys [Everything]<div><p>Hey again</p>
<p>That's what I've been trying to do but that option isn't there.
Moreover,<br>
in the screencast when it says go to System Preferences>GPG
Preferences<br>
that option isn't there either on my Macbook.</p>
<p>I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling but to no avail. I
guess I<br>
should point out that I'm using Leopard and not Lion. I'm guessing
this<br>
might have something to do with this?</p></div>Mikey Quinntag:gpgtools.tenderapp.com,2011-11-04:Comment/124277842011-12-28T16:16:12Z2011-12-28T16:16:12ZRe: [GPGTools] Importing other people's public keys [Everything]<div><p>Uh alright, that might be an issue.<br>
@Alex: Is GPGServices supposed to work without problems on
10.5?</p></div>Luke Letag:gpgtools.tenderapp.com,2011-11-04:Comment/124277842011-12-29T18:04:13Z2011-12-29T18:04:13ZRe: [GPGTools] Importing other people's public keys [Everything]<div><p>Yeah, sorry, it never crossed my mind to mention it before hand

lot we can currently do. (also see: <a href=
"http://www.gpgtools.org/gpgservices/index.html">http://www.gpgtools.org/gpgservices/index.html</a>)</p>
<p>So are you a PowerPC user or could you upgrade your OS? We might
do a backport someday, but currently are very busy getting other
things with higher priority done first.</p>
<p>Another solution for you might be something that is browser
based. I know this is being worked on but am not aware if it is
public already (and thus bug free ;)).</p>
<p>Closing this for now. If you need more help let us know and
re-open this discussion or open a new one.</p>
<p>All the best, steve</p></div>Steve
