FTP Amazon S3 Permissions

I have been using CrossFTP to upload and manage my files on Amazon S3.
My files are Video and XML files and I have not been too happy with
CrossFTP so today I bought ForkLift which is a Mac client and has good reviews.
I was hoping I could get my original keys but the secret key
was not able to be accessed.
I generated a new set but I am getting a error of not being able to connect to the
S3 Server.
I The Options I have are:

Protocol: (set to Amazon S3)
Server: (set to s3.amazonaws.com)
Username:
Secret Key:

Then more options you can select if needed

Port: 443
Local Path:
Base URL:
Encoding: set to Western

I can not figure out what I am doing wrong,
I created a new set of keys and a new user.
CrossFTP is still working using the original keys.

Thanks,
Kevin

You can probably get them or create new ones using the security credentials page of the AWS console

Amazon doesn’t give out your original keys anymore, so if you lose them, you can create new users with new keys - otherwise you’re out of luck.

Thanks for your help,
I just had to delete one of the two keys to create a new key.
You are allowed a maximum of two keys.
Thanks for the link a great resource!
