Double digits????

I have Firefox loaded on my new Asus TF300T tablet. When I initially start up the browser I'm getting a double digit of whatever key I enter first. So if my first letter is a T for example it will automatically enter TT. Weird thing is that it seems like the tablet doesn't even recognize the second one is there. You can't move the cursor to the end and backspace. All you find do is clear the whole search bar. After that it works fine. If I go back to home screen and return to the browser, same problem. I've tried reinstalling Firefox with no luck. Internet Explorer works fine. Any suggestions? Not a major problem just annoying as hell!...Thank you.....

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.
The Firefox cache temporarily stores images, scripts, and other parts of websites while you are browsing. <br>
Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
To clear cache and cookies, do the following:
#Tap the menu icon located at the top right corner. This is the icon with 3 bars. On older Android devices you'll have to press the hardware menu key and then tap More.
#Tap '''Settings'''.
#After that, you will be taken to the settings screen. In the settings screen, look under the section '''''Privacy & Security''''' and select '''Clear private data'''.
#You will then be taken to a list of what can be cleared. Select the following 2 for deletion:
#*Cookies & active logins
#*Cache
#After those have been selected, tap the '''Clear data''' button to actually clear the cache and cookies.

Unity Connection 8.5(1)ES46 Notification Devices Pager notifications double digits?

Running Unity Connection 8.5(1)ES46
When a voicemail notification is sent to a pager, it is sending double digits for the call back number. So, instead of 535 3 6 0 0 #, it sends 55 33 55 33 66 00 00 ##. I don't have a pager to test with but that's what I hear when I have it call my phone (the initial call out seems to be working fine).

Jason,
I guess I'm still not clear which number they're referring to. UC only allows you to configure the destination Phone Number that will be called for each subscriber, see below:
Once a message is received by UC, it dials out the notification to that pager through whichever phone system (sounds like PIMG/TIMG/SIP trunk in your case. So for example if you want to notify pager 18001112222 by entering it in the "Phone Number" field, once that pager receives it, what's showing up in the display? 1188000011111122222222?
I guess what I'm getting at is that you only provide UC with a single number (or any extra digits) and it's going to dial those like any other call as I'm sure you're aware. I'm trying to make sense of how the pager is being called properly, but showing an incorrect calling number. Or, maybe I'm totally misunderstanding the symptom.

Why does my dashboard calculator leaves double digits every time I press a single number it leaves two

Dashboard calculator problem. Every time you press the touchpad on any given number it enters 2. So if you press the number 4 it leaves 44 in the window pres 5 and get 55.
What is going on?

Have you tried to remove it and add it again to see if that fixes the problem? Just a thought

Load avg is double digits instead of flatlining

I may be doing little on my desktop computer and get load avg of about 0.4 on my Pentium 4 2 GHz. I have no idea what uses the cpu.
I may be doing nothing and get spikes to 15% cpu utilization. htop doesn't show anything - no process or thread seems to be using nearly that much of my cpu. A reboot or even restarting X solves it ... for some time.
I don't know when did it start, my guess would be "recently" ;P
It's not a huge deal, but how to debug it? Neither 'powertop' nor 'ps -e -o %cpu,comm' seem to be the right tools.

Sorry for the confusion.
I meant that htop shows 100% cpu use, the computer gets laggy, the fans work overtime, 'uptime' shows load avg of ~ 1.05 etc., but no process shown by htop, 'ps' etc. seems to use much of cpu.
The highest cpu use I got from 'ps' when this happened is
$ ps -e -o %cpu= -o comm= | sort -nr

Page Numbering in Master with double digit

How do I create pages in the master pages with double digits, say I want to start with 01,02,03,04,… without punching in the zero "0" manually and maintain the actual double digit pages as: 10,11,12,13,… and NOT 010,011,012,013,…?

Yup. I still can't believe it actually worked. I'm constantly testing and trying different ways and so far so good. Below are the steps that I did in case anyone want to try. If it's a glitch, I hope it's permanent.
STEP ONE:
Select pages 1-9, right-click to Numbering & Section Options (making sure to right-click on page 1), insert "0" in Section Prefix, check Include Prefix when Numbering Pages:
BUT…it also applied to the rest of the pages (the double-digits), so…
STEP TWO:
Select ALL the double-digit pages, erase info in Section Prefix and uncheck Include Prefix when Numbering Pages:
and VOILA! It worked. It was a lot of playing around and testing but so far so good. If anyone tries to do this and it doesn't work…maybe it was all by luck or I'm just having a good day today.
I'd like to know if this process worked for others as well (for us deprived CS3 users).

Long double on iPhone

Hi,
Can anyone tell me what type of long double the iPhone supports?
I currently only have access to the simulator, not the actual phone. The simulator says it's a 64 bit mantissa, which is Intel's extended type, but that's probably only because the app was compiled for my Mac's Intel processor. I'll probably get a different answer on an actual iPhone.
If you don't know but want to find out for me, you can try the following code in a .mm file (objective C++), substituting someLabel for any object with text in a user interface.
#include <limits>
someLabel.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%d", std::numeric_limits<long double>::digits];
O, by the way, a regular double is still the 8-byte type with 53 bit mantissa, right? (Replace "long double" by "double" in the code above)
Thanks!
Michel

Got the answer on a different list, long double is the same as a regular double, apparently. 53 bits mantissa.

I cannot open a document from an earlier version of pages.

Hope someone has a helpful solution for me. I am trying to access my resume that I did in an earlier version of Pages. I tried to open it today and saw an error saying that the document could not be opened. I have tried researching this and basically have no solution. I need my resume and don't know what to do. Has anyone else figured out a solution other than blowing up their computer?
Sharon

Copy/paste from TextEdit works. The use of Pages v5 has created more problems than user solutions. Make certain you export to Word format as a backup. Pages v5.5.1 will make a huge 500Kb Word document. You will need to open and save it out from either MS Word, or the free LibreOffice to reduce it down to small double-digits in size.
Sharon, there is a Yosemite community under the general category of MacOS & System Software. Post your Yosemite questions there, and you should get competent answers to your questions. Responders to your question(s) will want to know the year and make of your Mac, how much memory is installed, and if you upgraded to Yosemite from Mavericks, or an older OS X installation. The Apple > About this Mac can provide useful info. Be as concise as you can while still conveying the issue you want resolved. If you are running anti-virus software, state that as it is a known performance and stability decrement for OS X.
Yosemite is now one revision beyond the base release. Each new iteration of updates to Yosemite will fix bugs, attend to some usability issues, and improve performance. I am running Yosemite on a 2014 MacBook Air with 4GB of memory. It has been flawless — if not overly art-deco for my taste.

Memory usage issue

I have a Macbook Air (mid 2013, 4gb memory, 128gb storage) and I'm running OSX 10.8.5 mountain lion.
My issue is that the free memory is always low, even when starting up the computer:
When I start up the computer, with nothing yet opened (note: I only have the iTunes Helper in the Login Items) the memory settles on 1.35 gb.
When I open Safari alone, memory immediately goes down to around 1.1gb. Granted, the more tabs I open in safari, the more it decreases.
After a little while, I close Safari, and the memory settles on max 2.2gb.
And often, after idleness, with no apps open, memory just decreases to about 940mb or less. Once it does, opening an app continues to drag it down, many times to double digits. I use the app "Memory Clean" on my menu bar to immediately clear up some of it.
I'm typically operating, from startup everytime, on about 1.3gb of memory, except for when it drops excessively. Why is it so relatively low when I have 4GB total? There should be about 3GB available when no apps are opened, at least on startup. Why is the computer using up so much memory when I have no real startup apps (aside iTunes Helper, and Avast, the latter not showing up in Login Items) and no third party apps?
I've checked the Activity Monitor, and on the list of processes, Safari web content (when Safari's used) is often the one in the list taking up the most memory, normally around 250mb, but sometimes high up to 720mb. "Kernel_task" usually comes in second with around 3.5% CPU, 300 mb. "mds" in third with about 85 mb. (Avast 4th with 70mb). What are the Kernel and mds processes about? can/should they be ended to free up CPU or are they system processes?
One last point: is there any use or harm in the Empty Caches fucntion of Safari? Is this the equivalent of empty internet files/history/cookies in Internet Explorer? I've clicked it and then quit Safari and it seemed to not increse memory at all.
Any input and or solution is appreciated.

you cannot add more RAM to an Air
Mavericks is designed to use RAM differently for good reason. Normal
http://appleinsider.com/articles/13/06/12/compressed-memory-in-os-x-109-maverick s-aims-to-free-ram-extend-battery-life
Mavericks uses RAM much more efficiently than any other previous version of OS X. Mavericks now has a memory compression feature that will compress the memory occupied by applications that aren't being actively used and give the freed up RAM to the application that needs it the most.

How to delete the many versions of the same song?

Help please, how do I delete old versions of a song? When I add to or tweak a piece, I first save it with a new name, like song 1, then song 2, etc. so that I have a copy of every change. This takes up space when I have 50 versions each of 10 songs. Now my hard drive is down to 7.4 and I was told to keep it in the double digits. I went to Logic,
chose the song from the next column, then in the next column filled with versions of the same song, I selected one, like old version 1, hit delete and nothing happened. I held down the apple key too and hit delete. Nothing. HELP please. I have not used this before but my 1-1 has ended since Apple won't allow renewals anymore. Also. I have all versions saved on 2 external hard drives.
D

Hi,
now first you'll need the right permissions for the folder where your songs are stored. I assume that you have the read/write permissions (or supervisor permissions).
Let's assume your songs are named "songxversiony.logic". They will reside in a main folder named "songx" containing all the "songxversiony.logic" files, and there will be subfolders called "audio files" "bounces" "Fade files" "Project File Backups" "Sampler Instruments" (maybe) and "Undo Data" and maybe one or two others.
1st: Usually, Logic stores your songs in /(your username)/music/Logic/... , so please open your finder and look if they are there.
2nd: You can delete all unneeded "songxversiony.logic" files from the finder. This should be possible by hitting the delete button. Otherwise check your permissions.
3rd: Now getting rid of the Song file (xy.logic) won't delete the really big Disk-Hogs, which are the Audio Files you used in earlier versions (but don't need them anymore). They still reside in the "Audio Files" subfolder.
4th: Fire up Logic, load your Project. Tap the "B" key to open the Bin and there you'll have all the audio files that ever were used in your project. Now many of them aren't needed anymore. So *within the bin* hit Shift-U to select all unused Audio files (or in the menu: edit -> select all unused). Hit DEL to remove them from the bin.
5th: Now these hogs are *still there* (what the...? ) To finally get rid of them, go to Logic's Menu bar: File -> Project -> clean up. You will be asked if you really want to delete the unused files, and yes, off they go to the trash.
You may also look inside the bounces folder if there are old bounces you don't need anymore.
Problem solved.

Applescript Help: Search for text in Safari DOM tree

Im trying to make a script really similar what was asked here: Re: Find text in webpage and email notification applescript/automator Except instead of searching the "source code" of the page, I want the script to search the "DOM tree" for the page.
To summarize, I am trying to make a script that loads a safari page, searches for a particular text in the DOM Tree, and if found will send me an email.
Here is the code from the other thread I referenced:
on idle
          set pagURL to "http://page.url.com?whatever"
          if application "Safari" is not running then
                    quit
                    return
          end if
          tell application "Safari"
                    set URL of document 1 of window 1 to "http://your.web.address/"
                    delay 5
-- delay to let page load.
                    if source of document 1 of window 1 contains "search text" then
                              my sendAMail()
                    end if
                    return 900 --fifteen minutes
          end tell
end idle
on sendAMail()
          tell application "Mail"
                    set theMess to make new outgoing message at end with properties {sender:"your name", subject:"some subject line", content:"The message you want to send to yourself", visible:true}
                    tell theMess
                               make new to recipient at end of to recipients with properties {address:"[email protected]"}
                    end tell
-- send theMess
          end tell
end sendAMail
Any help would be appreciated!

For the URL you quote as an example (http://www.sislands.com/coin70/week2/NestedLoops1.htm), using text instead of source worked for me:
if text of document 1 of window 1 contains "1 2 3 4" then
another example:
if text of document 1 of window 1 contains "10 12 14 16" then
Note a double space between single digits (1 2 3 4) and a single space between double digits (10 12 14 16) is required for a match as per the table format:
Any full line:
if text of document 1 of window 1 contains "for (i = 1; i <= 10; i++) { // when i = 10" then
or partial line works:
if text of document 1 of window 1 contains "; i++) { // when i = 10" then

Hi all.
I'm here to see if anyone can help with a problem I have on my Macbook. Let me try and explain as best I can.
Basically, whenever I have a couple of programs open, or if I visit a website heavy in content (ie: eBay compiling a search result, myspace, etc), or if I watch any form of video, or listen to any audio whilst doing anything else, after a while (in most cases under 10 seconds, sometimes up to 30 seconds), my Airport wireless indicator in the Menu Bar goes blank for a second, then comes back on, and from then on (until I close everything, and leave it for a minute), my Macbook slows to a crawl. The refresh rate for the screen is completely slow, and it's looks like an animation at 1 frame-per-second. My fans also make an extreme amount of noise, like it's about to take off.
If I'm listening to audio via iTunes, or a flash video in my browser, the way I know this is about to happen is that the audio starts stuttering, when the Airport indicator knocks itself out, it goes silent, and comes back when the Airport connection does. And from there, due to the slow refrsh rate, the audio is way out of sync with the video, and the video is has the '1 frame per second' look about it.
This problem first reared it's head about a year ago, when my Macbook was still packing it's factory RAM and HDD.
At first, I thought it was due to a lack of RAM, so I went from 1.25Gb to 2Gb. No change.
Then, I thought it was due to my HDD, as I was extremely low on space. I had less than 10Gb space for a good long time, so I thought it was down to not having enough virtual memory, so, I upgraded to a 320Gb Western Digital drive. Again, no change.
I've used an anti-virus program too, which has revealing nothing.
I ran the Hardware Test, thinking I may have bought a bad stick of RAM. Nope, they're both fine.
I've repaired the HDD via Disk Utility, and there was no problems with the HDD.
Tonight, after reading about on here, I reset the VRAM and PRAM, still no change.
Sigh.
I'm really beginning to lose it now, as it makes operating my beloved Macbook a real pain. I can never do more than two things at once, and have to do some severe 'tab-management' when I'm browsing. I've given up ever watching videos on it, as it just never works for longer than a minute.
So, does anyone have any idea what's up?
For the record, I am out of my Applecare subscription, so taking it in for repair is the last resort.
Can someone please help? If you need any other info whatsoever, please, let me know, I'll be more than happy to oblige.
Many thanks,
Gav.

What Lyssa said. And thing to look out for in Activity Monitor are Printing jobs. Unfinished printing jobs have been known to do what you describe. Also, with no programs running Activity Monitor should show no processes using more than single digit %CPU under All Processes. It sounds like you have something in the high or at least mid double digits going all the time.

USB travel keyboard vs non-IBM PC

For some time I've been using a USB keyboard with ultranav - the kind with the keypad, which has been discontinued - on my non-IBM PC running XP. That keyboard worked fine, and I could modify all the attributes of the trackpoint and pad. For me, it's especially important to be able to reduce the force necessary to use the trackpoint or I'll hurt my hands. Over time, though, it reached the end of its lifespan.
I bought a USB travel keyboard with ultranav. Essentially the same thing, but without the keypad. I've tried a variety of driver installs, including generic Synaptics drivers, and I can't modify the trackpoint's beavior. Both the pad and the trackpoint work, controlling the mouse, but there is no way to reduce the force necessary. At one point, I got the message that the trackpoint was disabled and I needed to re-enable it in the BIOS... but this isn't an IBM machine. It has an ASUS motherboard, and the bios has nothing relevant as far as I can tell.
A potential clue:
Watching the device manager, I've plugged in my old keyboard and the new travel keyboard. The old keyboard is recognized as a "HID Keyboard Device", "Synaptics Composite USB TouchPad", and "Synaptics Composite USB TouchStyk". The _new_ keyboard is recognized as a "HID Keyboard Device" and "HID-compliant mouse." I would have expected two mice, actually, one for the trackpoint and one for the touchpad.
I have tried various installs and drivers, including drivers from Lenovo and generic ones from Synaptics, without luck. It's still an HID-compliant mouse which won't let me change the amount of force necessary.
Any ideas?

I feel your pain ringrose.
My beloved IBM T42, circa 2005, has been retired from work duties and soldiers on in limited duty at home. I have recently attempted to re-create the well-designed keyboard, particularly the Synaptics touchpad and the TrackPoint, for my office PC, which is a clone (but with 'name-brand' internals, an Intel motherboard and processor, Kingston RAM, OCZ SSD) running 64-bit Windows 7 Professional, SP1.
So, for the princely sum of $35 I purchased a new keyboard, an IBM Part No. 89P8500 and IBM Model No. SK-8840. It's labeled IBM, not Lenovo. The keyboard's cord ends in two PS/2 plugs, one for the keyboard and one for the mouse, the latter I believe refers to the integrated Synaptics touchpad, and the integrated Trackpoint. My office PC has no PS/2 inputs, so I purchased a Ziotek PS/2 Keyboard and Mouse to USB Adapter (ZT1040444) to make the connection between the keyboard and the PC.
The keyboard does achieve basic functionality by simply plugging it into the PC through the Ziotek adapter. But the Synaptics touchpad and the TrackPoint are capable of considerably more functionality. I know this because on my T42 the touchpad and TrackPoint were controlled by UltraNav software, which created a tab in the Mouse Properties in Control Panel. There, many adjustments and customizations were possible.
But having spent more hours than I will admit to (yes, it's in double digits), I am still unable to achieve UltraNav levels of functionality. Worse, and even though the keyboard functions, if I open Control Panel, Mouse Properties an error message appears saying:
"Unable to connect to the Synaptics Pointing Device Driver.
If you have installed another PS/2 Pointing Device Driver please uninstall the Synaptics driver by clicking on the Yes button. You then need to reinstall your pointing device driver for your external device again.
Do you want to uninstall the Synaptics driver now?"
I select "No" and the Mouse Properties dialogue box opens, sans any indication of UltraNav or any functionality beyond the basic functions provided in Windows.
It finally dawned on me that the UltraNav software is IBM's proprietary version of Synaptics' generic touchpad / trackpoint driver. And it just doesn't want to and/or isn't going to work on my clone PC. I have literally tried dozens of USB and PS/2 drivers from Lenovo's website. The generic Synaptics driver from Synaptics' website imparts none of the UltraNav functionality, as best as I can tell.
My guess is that IBM probably didn't plan on selling enough of the now-priced-at-$35 keyboard (89P8500 / SK-8840) to merit going to the trouble and expense of preparing an UltraNav driver for non-IBM computers to run the thing. But, is there a version of UltraNav that will run on non-IBM/Lenovo PCs? I haven't found it.
The keyboard uses PS/2 and the Ziotek adapter, at least in theory, maps the PS/2 interface over to work with the USB interface. But is Windows 7 Professional 64-bit treating the Ziotek adapter-connected keyboard as a PS/2 device (which it is), or does the Ziotek adapter cause windows to treat the keyboard as a USB device? Thus, is the adapter's mapping over process so complete that the PS/2 device is now treated as a USB device? I have inquired with Ziotek and I am awaiting a response, which may never come.
I posted here in desperation. Please help, if you are able.
Thank you,
Dennis

UltraNav version for non-IBM clone PC to run IBM Travel PS/2 Keyboard, 89P8500, SK-8840?

IBM sourced their keyboards from another company for a long time, and that company not only still exists, but still sells the keyboard you're using (though for much more). Company is Unicomp. Website is pckeyboard.com. They probably support the keyvboard.
That said, the generic synaptics reference driver should work for the trackpad. Can't say the same for the trackpoint.

Why does the memory keep depleting? Is it kernel_task?

It seems that recently the memory available continues to decrease. What seems to solve it is 'quitting' Safari and re-launching, along with running "Memory Clean" from the OS App store. I had somehow wound up with an adware called cinema hd, and it attached as a plugin, but I removed it. However, seems that simply scrolling through Facebook and refreshing Facebook causes the memory to deplete the longer I do that. Again, running Memory Clean that takes just a few seconds, and it seems to fix. Seems this just started happening over the last few weeks.
That all said, I accidentally 'hijacked' another post, so I have started a new one to help troubleshoot my issue. Clearly I have something on here that is sucking up memory over time. When I run Activity Monitor and hit the Memory tab, kernel_task seems to float to the top, and right now is 764.2MB as I'm typing this post. Following that is SymDaemon at 343.8MB, then the two browser tabs I have open in Safari. Then it drops down to double digits: Windows Server 73MB, Messages 61MB and on down.
Here is the info from an EtreCheck which was advised to someone else on another thread.
Any suggestions? This Mac has always run great - so I think I just need to undo something.

Uninstall Symantec according to its instructions. One or more of the following should be applicable:
Uninstall Norton Internet Security for Mac
Removing Symantec programs for Macintosh by using the RemoveSymantecMacFiles removal utility
RemoveSymantecMacFiles
Be sure to back up your Mac before making any changes to your system. To learn how to use Time Machine read Mac Basics: Time Machine backs up your Mac.
Hate to say that I've wasted $80 on that.
Yes. Get a refund, if possible.
So are we saying that I should just run with no antivirus?
That is a popular misconception and oversimplification. Non-Apple "anti-virus" products such as Symantec / Norton serve no beneficial purpose and are only likely to contribute to problems.
In general "anti-virus" software began to outgrow its usefulness with the demise of Windows. It's completely ineffective against the kinds of threats that exist today, a fact that Symantec's senior VP for information security admitted a short time ago, declaring "anti-virus" software "dead" while petulantly admitting the real reason is that it doesn't make any money. Read below.
Don't use garbage apps such a "Memory Clean" either. In an admittedly broad generalization, do not install anything claiming to "clean" your Mac. If they aren't worthless, they're malicious. They'll all waste your time and / or money.
There will always be threats to your information security associated with using any Internet - connected communications tool:
You can mitigate those threats by following commonsense practices
Delegating that responsibility to software is an ineffective defense
Assuming that any product will protect you from those threats is a hazardous attitude that is likely to result in neglecting point #1 above.
OS X already includes everything it needs to protect itself from viruses and malware. Keep it that way with software updates from Apple.
A much better question is "how should I protect my Mac":
Never install any product that claims to "clean up", "speed up", "optimize", "boost" or "accelerate" your Mac; to "wash" it, "tune" it, or to make it "shiny". Those claims are absurd.Such products are very aggressively marketed. They are all scams.
Never install pirated or "cracked" software, software obtained from dubious websites, or other questionable sources.
Illegally obtained software is almost certain to contain malware.
"Questionable sources" include but are not limited to spontaneously appearing web pages or popups, download hosting sites such as C net dot com, Softonic dot com, Soft pedia dot com, Download dot com, Mac Update dot com, or any other site whose revenue is primarily derived from junk product advertisements.
If you need to install software that isn't available from the Mac App Store, obtain it only from legitimate sources authorized by the software's developer.
Don’t supply your password in response to a popup window requesting it, unless you know what it is and the reason your credentials are required.
Don’t open email attachments from email addresses that you do not recognize, or click links contained in an email:
Most of these are scams that direct you to fraudulent sites that attempt to convince you to disclose personal information.
Such "phishing" attempts are the 21st century equivalent of a social exploit that has existed since the dawn of civilization. Don’t fall for it.
Apple will never ask you to reveal personal information in an email. If you receive an unexpected email from Apple saying your account will be closed unless you take immediate action, just ignore it. If your iCloud, iTunes, or App Store account becomes disabled for valid reasons, you will know when you try to buy something or log in to this support site, and are unable to.
Don’t install browser extensions unless you understand their purpose. Go to the Safari menu > Preferences > Extensions. If you see any extensions that you do not recognize or understand, simply click the Uninstall button and they will be gone.
Don’t install Java unless you are certain that you need it:
Java, a non-Apple product, is a potential vector for malware. If you are required to use Java, be mindful of that possibility.
Java can be disabled in System Preferences.
Despite its name JavaScript is unrelated to Java. No malware can infect your Mac through JavaScript. It’s OK to leave it enabled.
The same precaution applies to Adobe Flash Player. New Flash vulnerabilities appear almost weekly.
Beware spontaneous popups: Safari menu > Preferences > Security > check "Block popup windows".
Popup windows are useful and required for some websites, but unsolicited popups are commonly used to deceive people into installing unwanted software they would never intentionally install.
Popups themselves cannot infect your Mac, but many contain resource-hungry code that will slow down Internet browsing.
If you ever receive a popup window indicating that your Mac is infected with some ick or that you won some prize, it is 100% fraudulent. Ignore it.
The same goes for a spontaneously appearing dialog insisting that you upgrade your video player right this instant. Such popups are frequently associated with sites that promise to deliver "free" movies or other copyrighted content that is not normally "free".
The more insistent it is that you upgrade or install something, the more likely it is to be a scam. Close the window or tab and forget it.
Ignore hyperventilating popular media outlets that thrive by promoting fear and discord with entertainment products arrogantly presented as "news". Learn what real threats actually exist and how to arm yourself against them:
The most serious threat to your data security is phishing. Most of these attempts are pathetic and are easily recognized, but that hasn't stopped prominent public figures from recently succumbing to this age-old scam.
OS X viruses do not exist, but intentionally malicious or poorly written code, created by either nefarious or inept individuals, is nothing new.
Never install something without first knowing what it is, what it does, how it works, and how to get rid of it when you don’t want it any more.
If you elect to use "anti-virus" software, familiarize yourself with its limitations and potential to cause adverse effects, and apply the principle immediately preceding this one.
Most such utilities will only slow down and destabilize your Mac while they look for viruses that do not exist, conveying no benefit whatsoever - other than to make you "feel good" about security, when you should actually be exercising sound judgment, derived from accurate knowledge, based on verifiable facts.
Do install updates from Apple as they become available. No one knows more about Macs and how to protect them than the company that builds them.
Summary: Use common sense and caution when you use your Mac, just like you would in any social context. There is no product, utility, or magic talisman that can protect you from all the evils of mankind.

Updating app's Keychain access causing 'securityd' hang?

Recently, when I update an app and get the "Confirm Application Change" dialog box (related to re-authorizing Keychain permissions), clicking "Change All" to allow the change makes some Bad Things happen.
* dialog box stays up
* beachball spins
* everything slows way way down (GUI is mostly unresponsive, apps won't launch, etc.)
* Activity Monitor shows `securityd` and `kernel-task` each rocketing up in CPU and RAM usage (each grabs over a gig of virtual RAM and double digits of processor)
Things stay this way until I Force-Quit the app trying to update. Even then it gets only a little better -- securityd and kernel_task just keep gobbling way.
Since securityd can only be launched during a reboot, this leaves my system practically useless until I restart. Sometimes the dialog box itself goes away if I wait long enough (3-5 minutes?), but the processes still tear things up until I reboot.
What I've tried so far ("+" == tried numerous times)
* Keychain repair
* Renaming Keychain
* Disk Utility "Repair Disk"
* Disk Utility "Repair Disk Permissions"
* single-user mode: `fsck -y`
* single-user mode: Applejack for disk repair, cache clearing, preference checking, etc.
* Onyx for, well, clearing practically everything
* Combo update / system update
* Archive & Install reinstallation (from Disk)
Any idea what could be causing this?
It happens constantly with my beloved Quicksilver as well as the latest update of NetNewsWire. I'm thinking that _some entry_ in `login.keychain` has gotten hopelessly corrupted and is spinning the system into a tizzy.
What are my options apart from starting my 1800-item Keychain completely from scratch? Is there something beyond Keychain First Aid for resuscitating these items?
MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.7) 2GB RAM

I had a similar problem that I traced to keychain.app in Utilities. Basically, with Airport off, my memory was OK. But with Airport ON and restart, securityd would consume all available RAM. I deleted all keychain passwords (and tried Keychain first aid, Keychain reset, etc.) and when I next connected to my wireless network I did NOT check the "Add to Keychain" item. Yet I found that the wireless network password DID appear as a new keychain item, and the memory hog securityd persisted. The solution was to go to System Preferences and configure the Network settings for Airport so that the "Options" item "Automatically add new networks..." is UNCHECKED (the default is for it to be checked). The effect is that you can leave Airport on, but when you restart you have to select your network and type in your password. I now have other passwords in my keychain but they do not cause memory hogging. To summarize, when the Airport/WPA security password is in the Keychain, it creates a memory hog out of securityd. With my solution it takes a little longer for Airport to find networks, and you have to type in your password to your network. But, the benefits are that #1, the computer starts quickly (22 sec from power on to login, and 13 seconds from login password return key to a functioning finder window), and #2, everything will run faster because you have more free memory.
