Facetime Error, Little Snitch to blame?

I had LittleSnitch for about a month and then decided that it was really annoying. I deleted the program, every single little file I can find for it, I deleted. However, I think it has blocked some connection that is causing my Facetime error because I can't figure out any other problem. I'm pretty sure I denied some connection when I had facetime on Snow Leopard and joy, no more facetime for me.
Error I get:
"The server encountered an error processing registration. Please try again later."
This has been happening from Day 1 of getting Lion and I got Lion as soon as it came out. Help? Someone? Please?

If you have a problem with permissions, you should repair those. I don't know why you'd think it would mess up things - repairing permissions fixes them.

I don't use Little Snitch, but I would suspect that you have a setting there that is preventing your uploads as well as your communication with the Apple server. Hopefully someone using that app will chime in here on that.
So, until someone using Little Snitch can chime in, I would suggest you try turning it off for a short while; repairing your permissions, and then try to upload your videos. If it works, then you'll know the culprit and will need to adjust some settings there. If it doesn't, at least we've eliminated it as a source of the problem.

Every time i get on my computer and click on imessage and facetime a little box pops up saying an internal messages error occurred or an internal facetime error occurred....but my question is how do i get it to stop doing this or how to stop it

For what it's worth, you posted this in 2011, and here in 2014 I am still having this same issue. Over the last two days, I have had to unlock my apple account 8 times. I didn't get any new devices. I haven't initiated a password reset. I didn't forget my password. I set up two factor authentication and have been able to do the unlocking with the key and using a code sent to one of my devices.
That all works.
It's this having to unlock my account every time I go to use any of my devices. And I have many: iMac, iPad, iPad2, iPad mini, iPhone 5s, iPod touch (daughter), and my old iPhone 4 being used as an ipod touch now. They are all synced, and all was working just fine.
I have initiated an incident with Apple (again) but I know they are just going to suggest I change my Apple ID. It's a simple one, and one that I am sure others think is theirs. I don't want to change it. I shouldn't have to. Apple should be able to tell me who is trying to use it, or at least from where.
Thanks for listening,
Melissa

Little Snitch Upload Problems?

**The following was posted on another forum**
**Maybe you can help?**
I have a IMac Core 2 Duo 3.06ghz. It runs programs such as Final Cut Pro. A few months after I got it, I started having this file upload error, where whenever I upload a photo or doc to my Yahoo Mail or Youtube or any other site, it says file upload error on each site or another canned message. However, If I try and upload something on Windows Live Mail or Facebook, I have no problems. I'm assuming because this is flash. Any ideas?
Update 1: All my software is up-to-date date. I'm using Safari. Same error in Google Chrome.
I also found some unprepared disk permissions just a few mins ago
It says in 12 pages a lot of bad permissions. They all have to do with my Airport.
I don't want to repair them though because I'm using Little Snitch on some of my files for security. I'm afraid it will mess with some of these settings.
It is crucial I have these in tact.
Update 3: BTW, I just went into software update. It can't check updates because of a "network problem". I never had this error before. Any ideas?
Update 4: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2394357&tstart=0
Will the tips in this thread disable my little snitch?
Thanks so much!

Mail crashing after install Little Snitch

My Mail app has started crashing every time I try to do something with it. AFAIK, the only difference in my set up from when Mail worked smoothly is that I just yesterday installed Little Snitch. Crashing began then. I have now uninstalled Little Snitch (per its UnInstaller), but I am continuing to experience Mail crashes. Any suggestions or thoughts?
Many thanks,

When an application crashes (i.e. quits unexpectedly), the system writes information about the state of the application at the moment of the crash into a log file. That information is called a crash report and it makes troubleshooting much easier because it makes possible to properly identify the exact cause of the crash without having to follow trial-and-error procedures. In order to find and paste the relevant part of the crash report here, do the following:
1. Open /Applications/Utilities/Console.
2. From the View menu, choose Show Log List -- if Hide Log List is displayed instead, skip this step.
3. On the left pane of the Console window, expand ~/Library/Logs by either double-clicking on it or clicking on the triangle to the left. Expand CrashReporter as well.
4. Select Mail.crash.log. The whole Mail crash log appears on the right pane of the Console window. It may contain many crash reports. We only want the latest, which is located at the bottom of the file.
5. Look for a line that begins with "Date/Time:" as close to the bottom as possible, and another that says "Thread N Crashed:", where N is a number. Select everything from the "Date/Time:" line to the lines immediately following "Thread N Crashed:". Copy that text and paste it here. Do not post the whole crash log, and do not include anything beyond the lines immediately following "Thread N Crashed:" either, just the relevant part.
There was a "crash-fest" not too long ago. You may want to take a look at it for examples of what a crash report looks like and what to do in each case:

Don't hesitate to post the relevant part of your crash report here if you are not sure which of the cases discussed in that thread applies to you.

Mid 2011 Macbook Air won't boot after installing Little Snitch 3. Grey Screen.

Hi all
I think the answer is probably that my SSD is toast but here's the symptoms in case anyone else has experienced this.
I installed Adobe Lightroom and also got round to upgrading my Little Snitch license and finally putting it on my 11" Air (mid 2011, latest version of Lion) as I use the computer more often than my Pro. After restarting as LS requires I was met with the grey Apple logo screen with no spinning gear. I forced a shut down and started again, again the logo screen, no spinning gear. I tried booting in to safe mode and got only a grey screen, then I tried booting in to recovery mode and got the Apple Logo again. I also tried cmd + C and alt/option with an external DVD drive and Snow Leopard with no luck
Then I tried a SMC reset, after that I started up and only got the Logo again. I reset the PRAM and the main effect of that was to reset the system volume to max so now I can hear the POST chime but also since the PRAM reset I get only the grey screen and no further. I tried to boot from a USB Lion recovery but only the grey screen. I have also tried booting with cmd +S with no luck either. Internet recovery doesn't work either.
The keyboard seems to be completely unresponsive, the caps lock key doesn't light up at all and I've a feeling that it's either something as simple as a problem with the keyboard or the SSD is kaput. I think that Little Snitch is a coincidence as there's nothing like this anywhere on the web as far as I can tell with Google and there doesn't appear to be anything on these forums that quite matches, especially the part about not being able to use and alternative boot method.
Anyone out there got any ideas?
Cheers
John

Hi and thank you for your response.
The fans only kick in when the machine freezes.
I updated from Snow Leopard to Lion using the App Store. The install was successful and worked for about 30 mins then the unresponsive behavior started. Once I rebooted, I received the issue previously stated above (i.e., the trackpad and keyboard is unresponsive).
I've also tried booting using the Option key and choosing the Recovery Mode. Once in Recovery Mode the same crash happens (i.e., the trackpad and keyboard is unresponsive)

I have Mac OS 10.6.8 and get "An internal FaceTime error occurred".

Is there a fix in the works. Apple says click only once on icon but this is to no avail for me. Would REALLY like to use facetime on my MacBook without having to go into the root directory to modify something that should already be modified in the program's release. Does anyone have THE official answer for a fix? Is this one of those things I for which I need to call Apple and pay for the tech support to get it to work, or does it just not work on OS 10.6.8?
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Tia to all who respond and have a GREAT evening evryone!

"An internal FaceTime error occurred. There was a problem with FaceTime. "

An internal FaceTime error occurred. There was a problem with FaceTime. You need to quit and open FaceTime again. You have to close and reopen the application". How can I solve this matter?

Little snitch and dashboardadvisoryd

I installed little snitch and i get this message that dahsboardadvisoryd wants to connect to www.apple.com.edgekey.net
so I want to know what is dashboardadvisoryd and should I allow it to connect forever

It checks to see if updates are available for your Dashboard widgets. If you think that's useful, allow it to connect when it wants.

SystemUIServer wants to connect to Port 192 via Little Snitch

Hey everyone...
Over the past couple of days my Little Snitch program has been reporting that "SystemUIServer" wants to make a UDP Connection to my router (192.168.2.1) via port 192.
This message only appears after I've booted up the computer and only has been coming up recently.
I installed the latest version of Little Snitch (2.1.4) last week but am not sure why the "SystemUIServer" process wants to connect to my router via port 192 just now out-of-the-blue.
Am I okay in putting a new rule into Little Snitch to allow this request "Forever" or should I be worried?
Message was edited by: dingdong2u

Is that the IP of your router? If so, it's most likely normal.
It may be some kind of data transfer between your router and the computer.
Does it happen with a direct Ethernet connection and WiFi or only one?
It's listed as OSU Network Monitoring System.
You might block it and see what happens.
Just click on the yellow triangular menu item for LS and turn it off forever and see if you notice anything not working correctly.

Apple remote desktop can click little snitch

I have set up apple remote desktop over the net and I am trying to admin the computer but when I am trying to run a program, I can not control little snitch firewall and click to let the program connect to the internet. why cant apple remote desktop click the settings in little snitch that pop up when an app wants to connect to the internet? I thought we were suppose to have total control?

I have observed the same problem with Little Snitch on the client Mac. Everything else on the client is responsive except the LS dialog box. To get around this, I have opened System Preferences -> Little Snitch and turned it off on the client. You just have to remember to turn it back on when your done.
It's not a solution, just a workaround...

Does anyone know what is Little Snitch and is it safe to use

I had an email from a friend who mentioned about Little Snitch to prevent keyloggers, is it safe to use. If it is not I can relay this information back to my friend
who was just about to install this software. Prevention is better than cure
Thanks

The way to prevent keyloggers is to not allow anybody else admin access to your Mac, since that's about the only way a keylogger could get there.
What Little Snitch will do is prevent a keylogger that is installed on your Mac from communicating to the outside world over your network.
I've been using it since v1.0, I believe and it's very safe as long as you know what you are doing. I would also mention that it's a bit of a PITA to initially set up as it will ask your permission for almost every appication and process that needs to communicate over your network. You will find some processes that you aren't aware of that must be given permission or they won't work. You will probalby need to Google some of them to find out exactly what they are before making a decision.

FaceTime error message

everytime i try to log in to FaceTime i get "The server encountered an error processing registration. Please try again later." it works fine on my iPad... any help?

Hi there,
This often occurs if you double click on the FaceTime icon in the dock. The resolution is to click on the icon just once. Take a look at the article below for some more information.
