Hi,
That is an error from the macOS keychain. Please do the following to check for and repair problems with the keychain:
* Quit Fetch, if it's running.
* In the Finder, choose Utilities from the Go menu
* Open the Disk Utility application
* Select the startup disk in the list on the left
* Click the "First Aid" button, and then the Run button
* Once it's done, try Fetch again.Let us know if you're still having problems after doing this.
Thanks,
Jim Matthews

Disk Utility didn't find any errors. Fetch still cannot use the shortcut.

I'm sorry that didn't work. Deleting the password in question is the next thing I'd try. Here's what you would do:
1) Choose Utilites from the Go menu in the Finder
2) Open the Keychain Access application
3) Type the hostname or username for your FTP account in the search field, to narrow down the list
4) Double-click the entry for your FTP account
5) Click the Show password checkbox; you will be prompted for your Mac's system password
6) Make a note of the password
7) Go back to the list of Keychain Access passwords, and choose Delete from the Edit menu (or hit the delete key on your keyboard) to delete that entry; you'll be asked to confirm your decision
8) Try opening Fetch and connecting again; you may be prompted for the passwordPlease let me know if that does not fix the problem.
Thanks,

Today all of my Fetch shortcuts except to ftp://ftp.fetchsoftworks.com/ stopped working. The window that opened said "no connection" and Fetch immediately stopped responding and I had to force quit. I was using 5.3.1. I bought and installed 5.7.7 but got exactly the same response. Since Fetch immediately hangs, None of the menus work and it is impossible to access the Fetch Transcript. Selecting Foprce Quit from the Apple Menu generates a response to Apple that is 12009 LINES long. Here are the first cou[le dozen lines:

When I returned to the Utilities/Keychain Access, the FTP account I had tried to delete, and which launched the spinning ball, was still there.

Earlier today I had run Disk Utility on my boot drive in Live Mode. It checked out fine, but the problem was not fixed. Any and all shortcuts except FTP to Fetch Softworks crash Fetch.
Also, I went into Fetch preferences and noted that Use PASV was not checked. -

When I returned to the Utilities/Keychain Access, the FTP account I had tried to delete, and which launched the spinning ball, was still there. So problem seems to be Keychain Access utility.
When I opened Keychain Access/Preferences/General/Reset My Default Keychain got Keychain Access spinning ball, crash, force quit etc. First few doz lines sent to Apple:

It definitely looks like there's a problem with your keychain file. I would recommend contacting Apple for help fixing that.

Jim,
I'm getting an error when trying to access several of my shortcuts:
The shortcut cannot be used because an error has occurred. (Mac OS error -25293)
Most of these shortcuts point to the same FTP site but with different user ID and password combinations. If I enter the data manually, I'm able to log into the sites. These shortcuts used to work. Am I dealing with a corrupted preference file?
