GPG Keychain 1.2b6 (1057b)

Unfortunately we can't handle the error at this point.

Should your problem persist, please contact us at http://support.gpgtools.org with the following error description:

gpg: problem with the agent: Timeout
gpg: skipped "25CECD2D889FD027BDF0752EB651260BA8639974": Operation cancelled
gpg: signing failed: Operation cancelled

What did you expect instead

Email should have been send

Describe steps leading to the problem.

1. Installed gpg keychain
   
2. added a new key
   
3. send an email successfully
   
4. Was prompted for my ridiculously long passphrase
   
5. Answered yes, add it to my apple keychain
   
6. changed the passphrase
   
7. send another email - failed - bad passphrase (see new one)
   
8. typed the old one, mail was send (i think)
   
9. tried to change passphrase - could not
   
10. tried to send new email - could not, neither phrase would work
    
11. revoked old key, created new ket with new passphrase - this is where I am stuck

   Hey nikmon,

   sorry for not responding earlier.

   Did you update to GPG Suite 2015.06 in the meantime? Are you still seeing this problem with your new key?

   Could you do a simple text encryption in TextEdit to test your setup? http://gpgtools.tenderapp.com/kb/gpgservices-faq/how-to-encrypt-and...

   Does that work with your new key?

   All the best,
   steve
