Does anyone know how to use a self signed certificate with apple mail??

Ive read about it in mail's help and tried to set it up according to it. Ive created a self-signed certificate but have no idea how to set it up as it would work with Mail so that i would be able to send signed messages. could anyone help me??

Hello rado:
Welcome to Apple discussions.
I am assuming this is what you read:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/8916.html
If you follow the instructions when you set up the certificate, you should be fine.
Incidentally, most +"ordinary users"+ (like me) do not use this function. I am curious as to why you want to jump through hoops in your Mail application.

  • I managed to transfer the music from 1 pc to 1 other pc (to be played by iTunes). Bit didn't fixe the transfer of the meta data (for example the rating). Does anyone know how to use your old playlists, etc..(= meta data) on the other PC? So, please help!

    I managed to transfer the music from 1 pc to 1 other pc (it is played perfectly on the other PC (Windows 7- pc) by the newly downloaded and installed iTunes, version 10.6.1.7). But I didn’t fix the transfer of the meta data (for example the rating). Does anyone know how to use (or import) your old playlists, etc..(= meta data) on the other PC? So, short: how to migrate the meta data from one pc to an other pc?
    It's a pity that it seems not to be possible to import on the new pc e.g. the ratings!!!
    I don't want to start again with rating my (beautiful classical) music!
    Thanks, from Amsterdam, NL

    Did you do the move via Home Sharing, astro?
    If so, perhaps try the instructions from the following post:

  • Does anyone know how to use pages so you can export pdfs from the internet and automatically drag words from the document into the file name of the pdf (i.e., author, title of a scientific paper)

    Does anyone know how to use pages so you can export pdfs from the internet and automatically drag words from the document into the file name of the pdf (i.e., author, title of a scientific paper). For example, if I am downloading a paper by smith called "Surgery" that was published in 2002, it will automatically set the file name in the download to smith- surgery 2002. I have heard pages is smart enough to do this.
    thank you

    Pages can export only its own documents. They may be exported as PDF, MS Word, RTF or Text files.
    Pages can import (ie. Open a file as, or Insert a file into, a Pages document) documents in several formats, but won't rename the document as you describe. Documents that can be Opened (eg. Text, AppleWorks 6 WP, MS Word files) are converted to Pages documents, and retain their original names, with .pages replacing the original file extension. Files that can be Inserted (generally .jpg, .pdf and other image files) become part of the existing Pages file and lose their names.
    It may be possible, using AppleScript, to extract the text you want and to Save a Pages file using that text as the filename, but that would depend in part on being able to identify which text is wanted and which is not.
    How will the script determine where the author's name begins and where it ends?
    How will the script recognize the beginning and of the title, an decide how much of the title to use in the filename?
    How will the script recognize the year of publication?
    For papers published in a specific journal, with a strict format for placing each of these pieces on information, or containing the needed information as searchable meta data in the file, this might be possible. But it would require knowledge of the structure of these files, and would probably handle only papers published in a specific journal or set of journals.
    Outside my field of knowledge, but there are some talented scripters around here who might want to take a closer look.
    Best of luck.

    Does anyone know how to use vlookup from a pop up menu to retrieve another pop up menu?

    BM,
    Pop-Up menu format is not dynamic. It is created in the Cells Inspector and can't be modified contingent upon the state of other cells.
    You could program a table to list the options available for the previous selection, but it wouldn't be in the form of a Pop-Up.

  • Does anyone know how to use ATV with a keynote presentation?

    Does anyone know how to use ATV with a keynote presentation? Is it possible?
    Thanks.

    Yes use Quicktime. Try to create a presentation that uses a widescreen aspect 1280 x 720 would be good, then export it at full quality which should give you a movie of 720p at 24 fps and should be just fine for the tv, if you have any problems with exporting it this way, you could try manual settings or simply run the export you made at full quality through itunes using advanced/create an Apple tv version.

  • Does anyone know how to use music transfered from another phone to the iphone as ringtones?

    Does anyone know how to use ringtones that I put on my iphone from my previous phone? It went in as music and now I cant use as ringtones and figure out how to put it as ringtones.

    Two ways to do this:
    Download an app, such as RMakerPro, which uses music on your phone to create ringtones.
    Plug in to iTunes and find where your ringtones are listed. Drag them to your desktop, and then you will need to change the file type to .m4r, which can be done at www.freefileconvert.com.

  • Does anyone know how many devices one can have on one apple ID?

    Does anyone know how many devices one can have on one apple ID?

    The names are for your benefit. The devices are identified by serial number in iTunes. iTunes knows which device is which no matter what you name the devices. It works the same way with iCloud. You can name all three devices Fred - and iTunes can tell them apart - but like I said, you want to give them different names for your benefit.

  • How to use a self-signed certificate

    Hello,
    I am having some troubles understanding how to use a self-signed certificate. I have created one using Keychain Access -> Create Certificate but it never asked me for the private key and it never told me where the certificate is stored. How am I supposed to use it?
    Typically I would like to do two things:
    1) use the certificate to for example sign an email or other document so that the recipient can verify that it was really me. I understand the concept that they have to have my public key and use it to somehow decrypt something that I have encrypted with my private key. But where is my private key? As mentioned, the certificate creation process never at any point asked me to provide a private key.  An example using this process to sign an email would be really appreciated.
    2) I want to be able to decrypt a message that someone sends to me after encrypting it with my public key. Again, I need my private key, where is it? I was never asked to choose one!
    Please note that i am familiar with the whole process using openSSL ssh via command line, I just need to understand how to achieve the same thing using the certificate creation procedure provided via Keychain Access.
    In short, now thta I have created my certificate, how do I use it? Examples for dummies would be really appreciated
    Thanks  in advance
    /Andrea

    Can you import the CA cert under “Your Certificates.”, delete the CA cert, switched to “Authorities”, re-imported the CA cert, and restarted Firefox.

  • Does anyone know how to lock a specific application, such as e-mail in Ipad?

    I have my company email in my Ipad and I want to lock it in order to prevent whoever uses my Ipad to login to my email. Does anyone know how to lock a specific application or it cannot be locked?

    There is a somewhat clunky way to do it. First, go into your mail (Settings - Mail/Contacts/Calendars) and turn off (dont' disable) any accounts you don't want to be seen. Then go into Restrictions - Accounts and select "Don't Allow Changes." This will prevent anyone from turning the mail back on. When you're ready to turn it back on, go into Restrictions and either Disable Restrictions or go into Accounts and select Allow Changes.

  • Why, when I successfully connect to Server 2012 Essentials R2 via Anywhere Access does the Remote Desktop Connection use the self signed certificate for RDP instead of the SSL certificate I installed when I set up access anywhere?

    Scenario:
    Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials
    I purchased an SSL Cert from GoDaddy and I managed (after some challenges) to set up Anywhere access to use that new SSL Cert. I to rebooted the server and I am able to login to Anywhere Access vis https (using the SSL certificate) from PC, Mac and iOS.
    So far so good.
    The problem I am having is that when I click to launch a remote desktop connection to the server RDP connection wants to use the self signed SSL certificate of the server rather than the SSL Certificate I installed into Anywhere Access. As a result, I get
    a security warning like this: "The identity of the remote computer cannot be verified. Do you want to connect anyway?"
    The name in the certificate appears as ACME-SERVER.ACMEDOMAIN.local  instead of the SSL Certificate I installed, which is
    remote.acmedomain.com
    If I lick to accept, RDP does work fine, it;s just using a self signed certificate. I want it to use the trusted certificate that I purchased and installed.
    My guess is that there must be an additional step to tell Anywhere Access that when it generates the RDP session that it should use the cert? OR, is this just how it works?

    Because....
    the server does not have a 'trusted' certificate assigned to it.
    Only the RDP Gateway has the trusted certificate for the external name.
    If you want to remove that error, you have to do one of the following:
    Make sure your domain uses a public top level domaim, and get a public trusted certificate for your server.
    So, something like,
    server.domain.publicdomain.com
    Or,
    Install that certificate on your remote computer so it is trusted.
