Okay, not to be a complete noob.
So I created a new key and selected "RSA and RSA"
Still getting this error.
GPGError: GPG Failed, see log below:
===== Begin GnuPG log =====
gpg: no default secret key: secret key not available
gpg: [stdin]: sign+encrypt failed: secret key not available
===== End GnuPG log =====
Here is the out put of my edit function:

It seems that your key is only primary key (which is for signing other
key and for signing data). For encryption, you also need a subkey for
encryption (or primary key should have a flag for encryption).
You can add a subkey for encryption by 'gpg --edit 7E4B6B9B' or you
can create new key with primary key and subkey for encryption.
Default is "RSA and RSA", which means RSA primary key and RSA
encryption key.
