NV can't save password to keychain #56

Closed fuzzy76 closed 14 years ago

Upon start:

2010-03-09 21:59:14.846 Notational Velocity[1602:903] Error finding keychain password for service account SN: -25300 2010-03-09 21:59:33.879 Notational Velocity[1602:903] Error finding keychain password for service account SN: -25300

Result: My Simplenote password is blank, so my sync fails authentication.

When adding the password for Simplenote, I can sync fine again. But this happen in the console:

2010-03-09 21:59:39.054 Notational Velocity[1602:903] Error adding new service password to keychain: -67061

Please try the following:

  1. Open Keychain Access in /Applications/Utilities.
  2. Delete any "Notational Velocity" entries.
  3. Under "Keychain First Aid" in the application menu, select Repair.
  4. Ensure you have not modified the Notational Velocity application itself using an app such as Service Scrubber. This would have broken OS X's code-signing, which is required for the Keychain. Re-download the application if you modified it.

Well, this was embarassing. :) What seemed to be the problem was that I had done some testing with Dockless.app from http://homepage.mac.com/fahrenba/programs/dockless/dockless.html to see if I could hide NV from the dock without side effects (I couldn't). So a re-download fixed it. Thanks!
