Accessing https sites

Phone: E66
Provider: BT Business mobile 
Hi,
I can access http sites either through gprs or wlan no problem but cannot access https sites through either gprs or wlan?  I suspect this is the limiting factor of not being able to get mail for exchange to work.
Many thanks
Russ

hello
Same problem but my emac is brand new so preference files not likely to be corrupted in my case. Safari constantly saying unable to load page for this reason or that, including Apple https Secured sites. A lot of the time, hitting the refresh button will load the page but sometimes it still won't load. This is a bit more of a bummer seeing as Apple's own web browser will not load Apple's own web pages.

  • Access https site using Java, is it possible?

    I am new on https programming, please give me some advice on this issue.
    I have to access an https site, say: https://someoneelsesite/
    That site needs a client certificate. I got one certificate which I can now use it to acess the site using IE Web Browser.
    Now my question is: is it possible for me writing a Java program to access that site? ( I need to download a file each day on that site)
    I read some articles from this forum. Information I got looks like I need https site's public server certificate which I do not have. All I have is a client certificate given by that site to me.
    Some one please advise.
    Thanks a lot.

    Thank you very much for your reply.
    I searched this site before. The post I got says I need a public certificate of web serve which I do not have. (Maybe I understand it wrong!)
    Could you post some piece of your code which connect a https site with only client certificate?

  • Can't access HTTPS sites-message says can't establish a secure connection

    Whenever I try to access any secure (HTTPS) site, I get a message saying that Safari can't establish a secure connection. I'm running on an I Book G4, 10.3.9. This started a couple of weeks ago. It had been fine.
    I have an IMac runnning the same operating system and the same Safari version and that works fine.
    Any ideas? Thanks
    I Book G4   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    You need to update OS X to v10.8.5
    Click your Apple  top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click Software Update.
    OR, open the App Store then select Updates from the menu top of the App Store window.
    Then follow the instructions.
    When the updates are finished, try Safari.
    Very very important to keep your Mac's software up to date.

  • [SOLVED] Lynx Browser: Can't access https sites.

    Hello, an arch newbie here.   I hope I posted in the right section.   
    I'm having a little bit of trouble using the text-based browser "lynx".  I made sure to precompile lynx with ssl options before make and installing.  Yet, when I try to access a https site, it throws the message:
    "Alert!: This client does not contain support for HTTPS URLs.
    lynx: Can't access startfile https://www.archlinux.org/"
    Some extra information:
    "lynx -version

    Not sure what I'm missing.  My first guess is to uninstall it, and remake it with different .configure options.  I'm hesitant though, because it seems like it is already set up to handle https sites correctly.   I've been trying to make this work for a couple days.
    Thanks in advance for your time, I appreciate any advice.

    This is a bad idea.  Now you have untracked files in your root directory and there is a fair chance this could lead to a file conflict when running pacman in the future.  You should make a PKGBUILD for anything you want to build yourself.

  • Trying to access https site with a cert, got "The connection was interrupted" error after 30 seconds of waiting time before clicking on OK. But I can get in by clicking on Try Again button.

    I have a web site running on https. Every users need certificates to get in.
    I found out that if I didn't submit my cert within 30 seconds, Firefox displayed "The connection was interrupted". This problem is repeatable. But if I click on "Try Again" button on the error page, I can get in all the time.
    This problem doesn't happen on IE.
    Can you provide any tips to avoid seeing the error page?

    It is a miracle - After about 9 months without itunes, the new release installed on my machine today and appears to be working.
    7.0.0.70 is the verion I just installed.
    Another note to add to this now resolved issue. I bought an AirPort Express and I was not able to install the Admin software on the CD. I received the same error as I received with iTunes and Quicktime. This leads me to believe that this problem is in the registry or some other installer issue that is specific to Apple installations. I will have to go home and try to re-install that software. Maybe the new iTunes version cleared up the problem.

  • Wha wha wha??  Can only access https sites, not http?

    This is odd. I don't have a firewall. I can get on https but not http. Software Update also doesn't work, nor does anything iTunes does that needs the internet.
    Also, I suddenly need to type in an administrator password any time I modify or move anything in the Applications folder. I didn't used to have to do that.
    I don't know if this is related, but around the time this happened, I was trying to fix some annoying Time Capsule issue. I was able to finally fix it by using the Terminal and typing in some unix stuff:
    sudo chflags nouchg /Volumes/Data ("Data" being the name of the data folder in Time Capsule)
    sudo chmod 775 /Volumes/Data
    I used the same commands on my wife's MacBook, which was having the same Time Capsule issue, and she can still connect to the internet just fine. Anyone have any idea what's going on?

  • Cannot acees HTTPS sites in Internet Explorer - Windows 10

    In Build 9860 : We cannot access HTTPS sites in Internet Explorer ; unless we put it as a TRUSTED SITE.
    A similar issue has existed in Windows 8 and a patch was issued.
    I think the same issue has now come back in Windows 10.
    Please fix this. Thank you.

    Well, please try this link in your internet explorer of Windows 10.
    https://itldrive.infosys.com/infosys/webview/xythoslogin.action
    It doesn't open unless you put it as a trusted site.
    However, in Firefox (or IE in Windows 8 or 7)  it may open without any issue.

  • Only able to open HTTPS sites on my Mac

    Hi -
    I am only able to open HTTPS websites on my FF (17.0.8) and Safari(6.0.5). None of the HTTP sites are opeing in these broswers.
    Things I followed to troubleshoot this problem..
    I have Installed/Uninstalled FF & Java
    Clear firewall setting
    Rebuild Network Configuration
    Created New User
    ****Booting in Safe Mode
    Note***: In Safe Mode my issue was resolved. I was able to access HTTP Sites in Safe Mode and it worked even after rebooting. But when I rebooted my machine for the second time it again stopped accessing HTTP Sites.
    Please Help.
    Kind Regards,
    Susheel

    Try checking your host files they may be set up wrong.
    The file is in /etc/hosts, I recommend opening by either opening a terminal and typing 'nano /etc/hosts' or using the program TextWrangler downloaded from the website, not the App store.
    There should only be a few lines, the ones that start with # are comments, ignore them. Then there should be 4 lines probably 127...,255...,::1..., and some random numbers. Delete anything else.

  • Can't Access Secure (HTTPS) Sites On One Account, FF or Safari???

    Hello Mac Fans
    First let me say I'm new to Mac. On one account I can't access secures sites like I can in the admin account. This may be a function of rights but am not sure? All updates have been done.
    I can't login to this forum, my MobileMe account or my bank for example. I had to change to my other account or gasp, use a PC to post this message.
    I installed FireFox trying to isolate the problem to Safari but that didn't pan out, I can't get to HTTPS pages in FF either.
    I turned off Little Snitch thinking I might have denied something by mistake but that didn't help. I checked the rules and found nothing that wasn't allowed.
    Nothing was changed in the router. I just turned on Mac and it worked. The iMac is connected to the router via ethernet cable.
    I've used the search function and tried a few things that have been recommended for others but they didn't help me. I went to the keychain and did a repair, although it didn't find any problem. I over rode a couple keys to always allow them (Apple site stuff) and I ran the disk utility to no avail.
    For reference I will post the information for both Safari and FF.
    Safari:
    Safari can’t open the page “https://support.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/ACAuthWeb.woa/wa/login?
    appIdKey=2ddbca23a85d20e5bf7478812379ae23&path=/login.jspa%3FsuccessURL%3D/index .jspa” because Safari can’t
    establish a secure connection to the server “support.apple.com”.
    Safari can’t open the page “https://www.mln'sbank.com/” because Safari can’t establish a secure connection to the server
    “www.mln'sbank.com”.
    Safari can’t open the page “https://auth.apple.com/authenticate?service=DockStatus&realm=primary-
    me&returnURL=aHR0cDovL3d3dy5tZS5jb20vd28vV2ViT2JqZWN0cy9Eb2NrU3RhdHVzLndvYS93YS9 0cmFtcG9saW5l&destinationU
    rl=” because Safari can’t establish a secure connection to the server “auth.apple.com”.
    FireFox:
    The connection was interrupted
    The connection to support.apple.com was interrupted while the page was loading.
    * The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
    moments.
    * If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
    connection.
    * If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
    that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
    I've done a lot of snooping around on this forum and have ran out of ideas so now I must ask for help.
    Thanks

    I think I may have found the problem. It's embarrassing to find it minutes after posting the message yet I tried to solve it off and on for three days! My brother who is a 20 year Mac user has been trying to help me too. I guess it's true what they say... sometimes it's better to be lucky than good. LOL
    I turned off the parental controls. What I don't understand is that the no website restrictions box was checked. To me this means I should be able to go to any site I wanted. Can anyone explain why I couldn't got to a HTTPS page on a parental controlled account even though there were no restrictions placed on it?
    It's late and I need sleep. I'll leave this open for now until I have more time to test it.

    Is this the correct URL for that website? <br />

    I get this when trying to load that web site:

  • Firefox can access HTTPS but not HTTP sites

    Hi,
    All of a sudden last Friday afternoon I could not load any sites external to our corporate network over HTTP in firefox; HTTPS still works fine. Also IE doesn't have any problems.
    So far I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, creating a new profile, disabling IPV6, disabling DNS prefetching and checking my firewall settings. I've also used wireshark to try and see what firefox is doing, but it seems that no traffic at all appears when an HTTP website is accessed, however accessing an HTTPS site does generate traffic.
    We use Windows firewall with advanced security; I can't change much though because it is controlled by policy.
    We also use McAfee for antivirus and Bluecoat for filtering; again I can't change anything here because they are either policy controlled or administered from elsewhere.
    I think I can rule out Bluecoat as other PC's on our site can and still are using Firefox 4 to access the web.
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Many thanks
    Matthew Rose

    Two different sites, one with .info and one with .net.  One works perfectly without issue and they each have similar settings in Server, however one only seems to want to work using https prefix.  The sites are both different and therefore needs to be accessed with http at this point.  The problem is when I go to http://example.info it takes me to http://example.net which is not what needs to be occuring.  This occurs internally and externally.  Before the move I did my server was doing DNS as well and those settings have not changed or been modified except when I had to change their outside static IPs.

  • I get an Invalid Certificate notice when I try to access my https site for my printer. The serial number is the same as used by another certificate. In IE I was able to proceed to this address, but Firefox won't give me that option

    Hello,
    Thanks for contacting Mozilla Support!
    Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
    Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
    To clear cache and cookies do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
    #Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
    #Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
    #From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
    #Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
    Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

  • Problem Using GetNetText when accessing secured (https) sites

    I have been having trouble getting GetNetText &
    PostNetText to work with a secured (https) server. I need to
    execute PHP files located on this server. I have heard of SecureNet
    Xtra but before I try it I want to ask if there are other ways to
    do this. Thanks in advance.

    You should be able to access secure sites when running in
    Shockwave but
    not from a projector. Like you suggested, you'll need the
    SecureNet xtra

  • Cannot access any https sites, clock is OK, get This Connection is Untrusted error message.

    All works OK on Chrome and IE, but Firefox just suddenly stopped access to https sites yesterday, e.g. Google, Facebook and Linkedin. Non secure http sites are OK though. "This Connection is Untrusted" is the error message and technical details are www.google.com.tw uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is not trusted because no issuer chain was provided. (Error code: sec_error_unknown_issuer). I've tried all the Mozilla support suggestions, clock (which was always correct), reset Firefox, etc. No change so far, I hope you can help fix this issue.

    Check the date and time and time zone in the clock on your computer: (double) click the clock icon on the Windows Taskbar.
    Check out why the site is untrusted and click "Technical Details to expand this section.<br>If the certificate is not trusted because no issuer chain was provided (sec_error_unknown_issuer) then see if you can install this intermediate certificate from another source.
    You can retrieve the certificate and check details like who issued certificates and expiration dates of certificates.
    *Click the link at the bottom of the error page: "I Understand the Risks"
    Let Firefox retrieve the certificate: "Add Exception" -> "Get Certificate".
    *Click the "View..." button and inspect the certificate and check who is the issuer of the certificate.
    You can see more Details like intermediate certificates that are used in the Details pane.
    If <b>"I Understand the Risks"</b> is missing then this page may be opened in an (i)frame and in that case try the right-click context menu and use "This Frame: Open Frame in New Tab".
    *Note that some firewalls monitor (secure) connections and that programs like Sendori or FiddlerRoot can intercept connections and send their own certificate instead of the website's certificate.
    *Note that it is not recommended to add a permanent exception in cases like this, so only use it to inspect the certificate.

  • Trouble accessing secure (https) sites

    I recently installed Leopard and upgraded to 10.5.1.
    I am now having trouble accessing most secure sites. I've tried the following:
    -Used different browsers (Safari, Firefox, Flock)
    -Emptied the cache (on all browsers)
    -Turned off the Mac OS X Firewall
    The problem persists on different routers/ISPs and I am able to access the site using a different computer (running Windows XP) on the same connection.
    Again, it is most connections on secure servers, but there are odd exceptions (such as logging into this discussions forum).
    I appreciate your help.

    The browser will immediately display a message stating that it cannot connect to the server, such as:
    Safari can’t open the page “https://online.wamu.com/” because it can’t find the server “online.wamu.com”.
    Other sites that give the same error:
    https://store.apple.com/
    https://login.byu.edu/
    It shouldn't be a server related problem since I can access the same sites from other computers running Windows or Leopard on the same or different connection.
