You may then be informed what information the GNOME application wishes to access. Click on the <gui style="button">Grant Access</gui> button.</p></item>
+  <item><p>You may now be asked to unlock your keyring, if it is not already unlocked. When you have done this a window will appear telling you that an online account needs your attention.
