What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.trying to access the token from keychain


What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
i want to set the token directly and perform the upload. Instead a pop up comes 
asking the permission to access the keychain.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
GTM-OAUTH2 in  Mac OS X 10.6


Please provide any additional information below.
i neednot require any pop ups that asks permission which allows or denies it. i 
want the upload to be done directly

This is normal behavior for Mac OS X. Secure storage of user authorization 
tokens in the keychain will raise a permission dialog for the app the first 
time the app accesses the keychain.

While the authentication class has persistenceResponseString methods that allow 
getting and setting the authentication value as a string, the keychain is the 
only secure storage provided by Mac OS X, so we strongly encourage developers 
to use the keychain rather than other, less-secure mechanisms.
