After OS 10.6.8 update Hotmail says Safari cookies blocked on Sign Out

After I installed OS 10.6.8 when I try to sign out of Hotmail I get an error message from Windows Live that says that it couldn't sign me out because my Safari 5.0.5 browser is blocking cookies. This perhaps is a false error message. I do have the Preferences set to always accept cookies and Hotmail wouldn't let me sign in without cookies being enabled. If I turn Private Browsing on, the sign off works normally. Also, Firefox works normally with 10.6.8. I have seen several other threads that are reporting cookies always accepted after the 10.6.8 update. I have tried a number of fixes: Repair Permissions, Reset Safari, delete Cookies folder, delete top sites, etc, but I still get the (false?) error message. When I boot off a hard drive with OS 10.6.7 that I cloned before the 10.6.8 update, I don't get the error message.
Any suggestions?

Try the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo
Then restart your Mac.
You could also try deleting your Hotmail keychain. Open Keychain Access.
/Applications/Utilities. Select Passwords on the left. Delete the Hotmail keychain.
Quit then relaunch Safari. Navigate to your Hotmail account. Enter your user name and password. You should be prompted to save that data to a new keychain.
You might want to consider accessing your Hotmail account via Mac Mail rather than using web based mail.

  • After the most recent software update message saying "not enough application memory"

    after the most recent software update to 10.9.2 i get a recurring message saying "Insufficient application memory". what is the cause ? and what is the remedy?

    Fatma50,
    to take the recurring message at its word, the cause of insufficient application memory is that a particular app requires more free RAM than is currently available, and the remedy would be providing it with more free RAM, either by closing other opened apps or by upgrading the amount of RAM in your MacBook Pro.

  • My apple ID is correct on my App page but when I try to update my Apps it has an incorrect Apple ID so I can't sign in to update my apps.  I have tried signing out and signing back in, I have turned my phone off, the settings is correct too.

    I cannot update my apps in the app store because it asks me to sign in using an incorrect username account.  The username in settings-general-apps is correct and the username on the App store page is correct.  The only place it is incorrect is when I try to update my apps.  How do I update the username when trying to update apps?

    I had the same thing happen today on my wife's phone.  I couldn't find any answers on the support site and of course I could not get any help from Apple since my phone was old.  I kept digging and figured out how to fix the problem.  I opened the app store app and signed out of the old id and then signed back in using my new id.  It looks like this may have fixed the problem.

  • Ipad update failed, says network connection failed or timed out, but have good coverage, tried several times

    Been trying to update my ipad, and it keeps failing. the screen message I get says network failed ot timed out. Have no problem with internet coverage. Have tried on several occasions now.

    Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    Then restart the device.
    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button down until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.

  • HT4528 How do you fix when you and somebody are sharing same hotmail it won't let you sign out of Apple ID account in AppStore won't let you go to iCloud on settings or let you fix your addresses who gets your messages and stuff like that on iphone

    How when your Sharing a Apple ID with somebody after I updated it to 7.0.4 it changed my message stuff and wouldn't let me go to iCloud or switch apple id's how do I fix all of this stuff

    Wow that was really quick, thank you so much.  Im not sure at all which version it was because i said it was around 4 years ago he bought it.  I know it isn't under his username, since he's a PC person (ugh) so i know its probably registered to one of our actual names.  isn't there some way to look it up since we did register it, because I'm not even sure where the disks are from when we bought it (we've moved a lot and also have two storage lockers, i know i would have kept it with other disks) but my cd rom drive is actually broken on my computer as well ( i think it got stepped on and is now squished and won't eject or run disks.)
    So is there anyway they can look up that its registered to one of our names since we did register it when we bought and installed it, or do i really have to find the disk with some sort of proof of purchase (i know there would be no receipt after all this time)
    either way, ill do what you suggested to the best of my abilities and thank you so much for answering my questions, i can't even open the program as its incompatible and find out the info from that) so I'm in a bit of a pickle and your response was so thorough and it didn't seem to be posted long enough to even write a well researched response, thanks, all the best,

  • Facetime, iMessage, and Mail not working after iOS 6.1.3 update

    I've had my iPod touch 4th generation since Oct 2010 and never updated the iOS until very recently. Before the update, Facetime worked consistently and easily. After I finally got around to updating my iOS a week ago, my iPod has come into severe issues.
    99% of the time, I cannot send or receive Facetime calls. If I try to make a call, it doesn't make the dial tone and eventually it just says "Connection Lost". Nothing happens if someone is trying to send me a call. I only Facetime with my boyfriend and his iPod hasn't changed since Facetime was last working. HIs other iPod is also updated with iOS 6.1.3.
    I never used iMessage before the iOS update, but because it says on Apple support that it uses push notifications like Facetime does, so I tried it. Most of the time, I cannot send or receive messages. I rarely used Mail before the update, but I never had a problem with it. Now, when I enter my gmail password, it keeps saying my username and password are not correct, even though I haven't changed my credentials.
    I only use my iPod for Facetime, iTunes, and Pandora. I don't need iMessage or Mail, but I am testing with those to see if this can help find the root cause of the problem. Pandora works smoothly so I know it's not a wifi connection issue. I have searched for remedies on end and tried:
    1.  Reset, turn off/restart, turn Facetime on and off, etc.
    2. Changing the DNS server address to 8.8.8.8, which made Facetime work normally for one time and never again
    3. Updating my Apple ID password online, then signing out and signing back in
    4. Creating another Apple ID with my other gmail account. Maybe 1 out of 10 Facetime call attempts, I can generate the dial tone, but when my boyfriend clicks to receive the call, it says that I am unavailable. iMessage has about the same success rate. It seems when I miraculously can send or receive texts through iMessage, I can manage to get the dial tone when I try Facetime, though the call cannot go through.
    This is of course extremely frustrating and I highly regret the update now. I was hoping for an improved iPod after the update, and now I have a near-dud! I did make sure to check my location and date and time, and both are correct (US, Central time). Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    I spoke too soon. I tried Facetime again last night and had the same problems. Another factory reset did not work. I think it may be time to just call Apple support.

  • Every time i try to sign into creative cloud it says you have been signed out?

    I just want to buy adobe photoshop.... in the last 2 hours my computer has been plagued with viruses and nearly destroyed as i couldnt access the internet and didnt know what to do. Now every time i try to download it it tells me to sign into creative cloud. Every time i type in my email and my password and click sign in it says you have now been signed out.... this is the most un userfriendly website i have ever seen and im not recomending it to anybody.... Somebody tell me why im being trolled by this damn thing... this has been seen by 25 people.. the website continues to do this. I never buying another adobe product again and im gonna make sure my friends dont either... good bye

    CM_Martketing and MikeBanks are correct, but I think what is confusing some people is that they are mistaking their Mac HD for the user name. I kind of had to mash up 2 posts to get it right:
    1: Open Activity monitor from spotlight and end all Adobe related processes. You may find processes like AAMupdater, AAMupdater notifier, Adobe Crash demon process.
    2: Open Finder and navigate Macintosh HD/Users/[your user name]/Library (the library folder might be grayed out, just right click and select open)
    3: Now navigate to Application Support/Adobe/OOBE/.. folder.
    4: Delete opm file under OOBE.
    5: Rename OOBE to OOBEold.
    6: Check if you have AAMupdater in the adobe folder.
    7: Please rename it to AAMupdaterold.
    8: Click on gear icon on Creative Cloud desktop app and choose Quit Creative Cloud.
    9: Then launch it, sign-in and click on Apps tab.
    It worked perfectly! Thanks everyone, I've been trying to figure this out for a month!
