Like I said on the other thread, you should upgrade to Tarbell 0.9 (see http://tarbell.tribapps.com for details). However, I fear this error will persist for you with Tarbell 0.9 should you choose to use Google spreadsheets. It would appear that the keyring storage on your system is somehow inaccessible to Tarbell/not running. Are you running a more obscure or relatively old Linux distro by any chance?

Hi David

Are you running a more obscure or relatively old Linux distro by any chance?

Ubuntu: 10.10 .. (three years ago, which seems like yesterday, but is a long time on the internet).
