Hi!

I am trying to recover data from some sparse bundles but I don't know the passwords.  They are not attached to Espionage, but I am really hope that the necessary information is still in the database.

Can you advise me on how to proceed?

Thank you, that worked.  
May I ask what that did?  
Is there something I may have done to cause this?

The problem has happened again, and this time I'm sure I'm not goofing up the password.  I get the below errors in the log.  How should we proceed?

12-09-18 3:15:03.653 PM Espionage: ERROR (-[NSData(TECrypto) decrypt:]:131): scryptdec_buf returned: 9
12-09-18 3:15:03.653 PM Espionage: ERROR (+[DBSubdb subdbWithData:master:pass:error:]:45): failed because: !decrypted

Just FYI, I was having multiple other problems with the machine, and I ended performing a complete reinstall of the OS and restoring from backups.  For now I'm going to assume that some kind of corruption occurred.  I will let you know if the issue happens again.

Hello, would it be possible to have a remote session so that I can take a look into this with you?
Let me know when are you earliest available.

By all means!  When and how?

Bump?  I'm still having the problem.

I do not have a com.taoeffect... folder under Application Support. I do have an Espionage folder though.  I tried following your suggestions there.  When I try to unlock, I get the following in my system log:

12-07-23 5:16:32.410 PM Espionage: ERROR (-[DBMaster getSubDBWithPassword:error:]:127): failed because: !data

I have this problem no matter which database3 file I've tried. I've tried the original and several backups, going right back to the earliest one I had.

After having used espionage successfully for a couple months now, I tried unlocking my folders today only to find that my master password was being rejected!  

I tried following some instructions I found regarding renaming the Espionage folder in Application Support, but the part regarding re-adding the previous folders didn't work.  For now I have restored my previous settings, but this has screwed me right up.

Recently (during the past week) I have:
- run disk utility which found a couple of volume errors
- reset my NVRAM because my trackpad was acting a bit odd (turns out it was probably just the heat)
- Updated my copy of parallels.

I don't know if any of the above is even relevant, but I can't think of what could have caused this to happen.

Any help would be appreciated because I have some important stuff in those folders that I need access to asap.
