Thank you for the tip. I followed the trouble shooting directions only to come up with another problem.
The message originally said Mail.app (mac) had secure entry locked. I quit and restarted it as stated whereupon a new culprit was IDed.
Process 45215 has secure entry locked.
Using Activity Monitor, I went looking for the process only find it appears not to exist. The process numbers show no 45215. They run from 45213, 214, 216, 2217. NO 45215.
What does one do now?
