Question

Where can I find the private key used to generate the mac code signing certificate?

I have looked within keychain but cannot find it.

Was it helpful?

Solution

Okay quite simple now I have found the solution. In order to view the private keys used when signing you need to open keychain as root.

sudo /Applications/Utilities/Keychain\ Access.app/Contents/MacOS/Keychain\ Access

When opened view the login chain > Keys. Your private and public keys for your certificates will be found here. You can then right click to export these out.
