github authentication / permissions: multiple users, multiple repos

I cannot get github to permit me to upload files to my repo. I share this machine, and I re-went through the steps on github for account setup; moving ALL of both of our SSH keys to a backup and redoing it basically from scratch.

I've referenced a couple other questions on here, but neither have been working for me. The error I am getting is:

git push -u origin master

ERROR: Permission to [repository] denied to [user].

fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

Others have cited that the public key needs to be added to git. I've already done this [multiple times], and still no dice.

Thanks for any guidance.

You can also use the https://github.com/yourusername/yourrepo.git to clone and push to the repository. This will ask you for the username and password every time you push. This might be the right way on a shared machine

If the repository belongs to another account than the one set on your machine, I think you need to add a "collaborator" on your project.
