I've had problems with the Keychain adding a cert if I've ever added it in
the past. When the cert gets added the first time, it appears in "My
Certificates". If I delete the cert from the Keychain, then add it again
(I'm importing from a file) the cert gets added to "Certificates" instead,
and I can't use it for signing/encryption. This is really irritating, and
I'm guessing it's a bug in the Keychain Access application.
That sounds like you deleted the private key with the cert. If you did
and later re-import just the cert, Keychain Access knows it's not yours
because you don't have the private key.
Alternately, the act of deletion may break the association between
private key and cert in Keychain Access, which leads to the same
result--Keychain Access doesn't know where the corresponding private key
is, so it assumes the cert isn't yours.
I may have to experiment.
