How do I scan for a virus? Internet won't often connect to facebook, google, youtube and many other websites while others connect fine.
Serveral times a week I won't be able to connect with facebook, google, youtube and yahoo. Usually it will say:
"Invalid URL The requested URL "/", is invalid. Reference #9.64070f17.1344033131.59fe68f5"
I'm not even using a "/" in the address bar. I'll type in www.facebook.com and that message will pop up. There is also a little white page icon to the left of the address in the address bar. When I click on more info it says:
"The site isn't using SSL. This icon displays for http:// sites. Most sites don’t need to use SSL because they don’t handle sensitive information. Avoid entering sensitive information, such as your credit card information or bank login information, on the page. If sensitive information is being requested on a site not using SSL, consider contacting the website owner."
The same thing happens when I use Google Chrome or Safari. I'm up to date on all my updates. Sometime clearing my history works, but not always. Sometimes rebooting helps, but not always. Sometimes none of the websites mentioned will work. Sometimes only one mention won't work.
Any suggestions?

What make is the router?
What are the firewall settings on your Vista? What puzzles me is that your steam connection is fine and yet you cannot browse the internet.
I am sure you have right clicked on the system tray icon (wireless connection) and chose to repair the connection right?

After updating to mavericks I have to constantly enter my apple ID for mail, iBooks, iTunes and many other applications that used to be part of my keychain. How can I get my apple ID log-in to work again?
Several times I've re-entered my passwords under Preferences/Internet Accounts/iCloud and it won't save since I've installed Mavericks. Also, the iCloud icon in the left column in Preferences/Internet Accounts/iCloud is greyed out but allows me to click on it to set-up. When I click on iCloud the password is filled out but the "Enable this account" check-box is not checked. I check it, and all seems correct. The icon is no longer grey, the password is correct, the "activate this account" check-box is checked. Then, when I launch mail, notes etc. I'm still prompted to re-enter my apple ID. The log-in loop continues. For years my keychain has worked perfectly. What has changed in Mavericks?

I have been using Safari for years and have always kept it on "private." Starting two days ago, I suddenly found myself unable to log onto my blog and many other sites that I normally log onto when private is set. This so annoying, I just switched to Firefox. I don't like Firefox nearly as much as I like Safari. What is happening? How do I fix the problem?
Thank you.Might be a corrupted database ...
Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following:
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari to test. -
Been using an Avastor HDX-800 for storage and backup, also a SUPERDISK for smaller stuff; recently the SUPERDISK does not appear on the screen, and the light blinks while you hear it spin, also the Avastor has started to have the same problem, both USB conncected, both worked well before, but both now spinning, blinking, and not showing up on the screen as before,
Interestingly they both appear in the System Profiler, but just not working the same as before
I have tried other USB ports, but the same responce,yes I did reset the PRAM, but no benefit, still the same problem
my usb devices are: keyboard, mouse, printer, SD-USB-M3, and LaCie d2 DVDRW:
the mouse and printed are plugged into the keyboard: i have tried to move, these around, and have even tried just the mouse, printer and SD-USB-M3, but still the same problem

I don't have a computer on which to convert a digital booklet in iTunes to a useable form for iBooks. Why won't it download using the cloud like all the other media I purchase on my ipad?
LP content can only be downloaded on a computer's iTunes (or 1st gen Apple TV), you can't download them on an iOS device - and I haven't seen anything that say it will change in iOS 8. If you don't have a computer then at the moment you won't be able to download/view LP content
About LP : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3823
After you buy an album with iTunes LP on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, the album's songs will download directly to the device. The iTunes LP will download to iTunes on your computer when you choose Store > Check for Available Downloads. -

How to scan for the viruses while uploading a file
Hi!!,
I have an appliaction written in java wherein I take as an input .xls file.
I want to have same facility for uploading other fils also, but I need to check
for the viruses before I keep it on my server.
Please suggest me how can I do this??How do you update the other fields of the database table?
I assume your database table has some fields like Changed by , Changed On, Change time etc., in its definition.
If you are making a direct table update, pass the SY-UNAME, SY-DATUM/SY-DATLO, SY-UZEIT/SY-TIMLO to the respective fields in your table along with the data modified.

Virus Scan for Windows Viruses on Mac
I am new to discussion group since my Apple Care subscription expired and they don't renew it.
I hope this is the correct Forum for this topic----if not, please advise which of over several thousand threads might it be associated more closely with?
I'm Looking for a virus scanner that will scan windows materials (CD disks with program files on them) while in a MAC 10.3 OSX environment.... (sorry haven't yet updated to either TIger or Leopard 10.4 or 10.5 as of yet).
Can use or buy either an online scanner or resident virus scanner within the Mac. As this discussion group concerns the PowerBook G4 15 inch screen, that is what I chose to post first within.
Thanks for reading this!Hi eww:
Wow! You are correct for most of your assertions and observations...but unfortunately for you, I am employed and live in a PC Windows world that makes no excuses or time for the few (to the IT managers) Apple/Mac users out there. You do have a fan here in those multitude of PC vs. Mac advertisements, which clearly point out the folly of anyone using Windows on a PC.
I am employed by a 21 college University, which, at my last estimate, currently is funding Microsoft to the tune of $42 million dollars a year for its Windows Licenses across the University platforms which are almost 100% Windows based (or mainframe Unix for computer science classes of course). I consistently get emails with unopenable "windat" files and "PowerPoint" "excel" etc files and CD's that are totally unusable in the MAC, and for which I maintained the PC. Currently offline, its a two step dance to get them off line to the MAC and then save to a jump drive and thence recopied over to the PC to be opened there. They will not normally spend college money duplicating 100 page endless documents for the one user who has a "pc" problem, and they are just as enthusiastic about their PC's and Windows and hide any defects under the general phrase "computer or internet system is down---sorry for the inconvenience" broadcast over the old fashioned "telephone answering machine" network we still have functioning after 20 years! Also, unfortunately, after having spent monies for many expensive computer programs and their proprietary methods of "saving" files so that only their program can open and utilize them.....I am not about to buy all "Mac" versions of the programs (if there are any in the same company---usually they are not), or spend the time and money buying brand new Apple created or third party created programs, learn how to use them, and then save to their unique proprietary methods of saving files, all the data and files which are saved now on the PC. That unfortunately is simply not an option. Unfortunately for timing, after investigating those programs that claim to convert the Mac into a "Windows friendly" platform also run afoul of many issues, including the program cost is just the beginning, as now one has to purchase all new versions of the programs to run on a different computer with its new unique CD product key, not to speak of the difficulty of deciding if I go with XP which can run and share the files as they are, or the new VISTA program, which as I've explored this issue with some of the major programs I use and no longer can access right now on the PC---they say that (in typical Microsoft computerspeak) "sorry, but you may find that older programs no longer run in the VISTA environment, so new programs and files may have to be created" (that sentence is a simplified compilation of the programs that I've investigated..... The simplest one to show you this on is the fact I'm a WordPerfect User in a "Word" world. Even the MAC I have has Microsoft's version of Office on it with their terrible Word program on it. Fortunately for me, WordPerfect realizes this is the issue and creates keys that allow one to change the way a file is saved so that those people with Word, or a dozen other word-processing systems can read and correct those files. Unfortunately, that does it for WordPerfect as the other companies I use and have used for years through many versions on the Windows based systems, do not care if their programs would be readable by people using similar systems on a Mac.
But enough about why I still cling to the PC.
You brought up interesting points that I didn't stop to think about when I went searching for AV software that would check up on the Windows based CD for malware, spyware, and viruses. I've installed CD's from reputable companies that have had "issues" where people do insert such spyware etc unknowing to the top bosses into their production of the CD's in order to create havoc and upset the end user. Of course normal AV software on my PC has removed those programs for years. My difficulty is clear now, that I cannot use the older versions of the software as they do not install on my machine anymore with the "larger" Hard Drives and it detects that and refuses to scan for it....which takes care of the pre 2006 versions of the AV software.... Post 2006, AV software, must be "activated" using the internet and updated frequently else the AV software shuts down as a precuation against piracy. Of course turning on and connecting to the internet for even a few minutes of registration invites in to my computer a trojan horse which can do its damage before the AV software has been activated and the "Internet" scanning part of the software activated. I've discussed this problem with the software company at length and they assure me that they never thought of the problem, as most people like myself are installing "upgrades" not from "zero" so the older AV software is kept functioning until its removal is requested by the "Wizard" installing the new one, after confirmation of the CD product key allows for the installation and registration of the software.....I know I know too much details but you did respond to me as if I did not know of the detriments of having a PC and now I've explained the problems that led me to this course of action......its not the patience of a saint, but the business (education) that I'm in and to which Apple did not have enough of a clout when they were choosing which platform will run University-wide several decades ago, so now we are stuck with Microsoft whether we like it or not!
Back to the AV problem and thanks for pointing out that without the ability to download the program into the computer for the AV program to not only check up but eliminate any malware and viruses, the CD is essentially unchanged and would have been inserted into the PC and transferred its virus to the PC (if it did have one, as even a small virus would seriously hamper my continued discussions with these companies as they are searching for a solution, and coming up empty, of course they ask: any new software or viruses, and that I have until today answered "no"....
So therefore I am between a rock and a hard place not having the ability to install a MP3 creation program into the PC, nor being able to use the latest GarageBand with the parts of the program that had "defects" (we don't call them bugs in Mac, of course Mac's don't get things like viruses or bugs I've found out over the years!)...which have been long rectified with the newer iLife and newer Tiger/Leopard operating systems. Unfortunately, that accident and lack of willing and patient people to carry the computer to where the store is located has been the cause of the delay in upgrading...until now its deadline time and too late to do anything about it....
Of course the Garage Band would be updated when I get to have Leopard installed, but as someone here already pointed out, I have to buy from a store not via mail since I would not trust myself to install something on the Mac simply because I do not have the experience installing stuff on the Mac as except for a font program MacFonts, the Mac PowerBook is essentially the way it was when purchased in 2004.
Thanks again for your patience in reading all of this background material---any suggestion from you or anyone would be appreciated as I’m forever barred from posting my question on the Windows help Forums as the price of entry is too high (another “free” installation of the Windows Genuine Advantage” program!)

How to prevent iTunes for Windows from "Updating iTunes Library"?
My library is on a NAS and managed by iTunes on a Mac. I can connect from wife's Windows laptop using iTunes for Windows but every time I do, it Updates iTunes Library. Next time I log in from my Mac it Updates iTunes Library in return. It appears I'm experiencing "Update Wars" between the Mac and Windows versions of iTunes. I would like to allow my wife to stream iTunes songs to her new laptop but I don't want any updates from this source... prefer to manage the library from my Mac and not allow Windows to do any thing other than listen to existing playlists.
Thanks for any help/suggestions.Connect the PC to the library on the NAS. Wait while "updated".
Under Edit > Preferences > Advanced make sure the media folder is correctly pointed at the media folder on the NAS. If not correct, close iTunes, wait a few moments, then open iTunes again.
Close iTunes on the PC. Do not open iTunes on the Mac.
Copy the library files, iTunes Library.itl, iTunes Library Extras.itdb, iTunes Library Genius.itdb, sentinel and the folder Album Artwork into an empty iTunes folder on the PC, for example C:\iTunes.
Click the icon to start iTunes and immediately press and hold down SHIFT. Keep holding until prompted to choose or create a library. Click choose and browse to the copied .itl file, e.g. C:\iTunes\iTunes Library.itl
The library should now work properly on the PC, however check the setting for the media folder. If needs be correct, close iTunes and reopen.
Open iTunes on the Mac. It will update again, but that should be last time.
