Can't find private key for Apple Development Push Services

I've consulted many sources out there and still can't figure this out.

http://code.google.com/p/apns-php/wiki/CertificateCreation

Basically after I download the Development Push SSL Certificate from the iOS Provisioning Portal > App IDS (with Enable for Apple Push Notification service selected) and I double click the certificate (filename aps_development.cer) to open it, the Keychain opens. I then select "login" and "Certificates" on the left panels. On the right panel I see "Apple Development IOS Push Services:..." and all instructions I've consulted so far have told me to "expand" this option by clicking the arrow next to the name to reveal the private key, but there is no expand option for this certificate. Can anyone help me find this private key? Did I download the wrong certificate?

Thanks

How do I get my certificate private key?

On Windows servers, the OS manages your certificate files for you in a hidden folder, but you can retrieve the private key by exporting a “. pfx” file that contains the certificate(s) and private key. Open Microsoft Management Console (MMC). In the Console Root expand Certificates (Local Computer).

I noticed that the expand icon is actually visible when clicking on 'My Certificates' in the left menu (Keychain).
