I've picked certificates from my cert card which Thunderbird can see but it can't actually decrypt or sign with them. (Encrypt works)
Thunderbird 31.3.0
Win7 Enterprise, SP1 (all patches, corporate maintained)
ActivClient x64 - 7.0.2.403
I just got a new machine from corporate. The old one had ActivClient 6.2.0.133 and I had it working there. With my cert card inserted, TB can see the certs on the card. It lists them in the "Your Certificates" tab in the cert manager. And in the account settings, security section it lets me pick certs for digital signing and encryption. But when I try to use them to sign or decrypt an email it doesn't work. It does let me encrypt an email which others can read. I've checked about:config and it matches what I picked in account settings.
When I try to decrypt it gives me the boilerplate:
" Thunderbird cannot decrypt this message
The sender encrypted this message to you using one of your digital certificates, however Thunderbird was not able to find this certificate and corresponding private key.
Possible solutions:
If you have a smartcard, please insert it now.
If you are using a new machine, or if you are using a new Thunderbird profile, you will need to restore your certificate and private key from a backup. Certificate backups usually end in ".p12"."
If I try to sign it says "Sending of message failed. Unable to sign message. Please check that the certificates specified in Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings for this mail account are valid and trusted for mail." TB only lets me pick the cert named "Digital Signature" for use in the first place! And the cert's properties according to TB are "This certificate has been verified for the following uses: SSL Client Certificate, Email Signer Certificate". So TB knows it is good for signing. I'm out of things to try at this point.
Thanks for the help.
I've found a bit more information. When I'm trying to sign an email and check the cert info from the compose message window->security->view the cert that TB is trying to use, it is using the wrong cert and not the one I selected! No wonder it doesn't work! It is using a cert only specified for "Email Recipient Certificate" instead of the one I selected in account settings that is for "Signing, Non-repudiation" according to account settings and "SSL Client Certificate" + "Email Signer Certificate" according to the certificate manager.
This pretty clearly seems like a bug. I've never submitted a bug to TB before. Can I get some help doing that? I'm not a SW developer of any kind. This is completely breaking my ability to use TB. Half of my email traffic is encrypted.

And i hope to take my suggusts and make me happy becouse apple it is cooler from samsung
Apple the best
H.MThe iPad 1 can't run the newer operating systems. It'd be like trying to play a bluray disc in your 6 year old dvd player....it simply lacks the hardware to make the software run.
No suggestion about the camera, but given that Apple's attitude seems to be to focus more on the more mobile devices for photography (the iPhone and Touch cameras got features, the iPad and mini didn't), that is highly unlikely. You can tell Apple what you want, but you'd probably be money ahead to get a digital camera.
as to the photos, anything put on via iTunes has to come off via iTunes.Your main alternative would be to look for photo apps that offer file exchange that may give you more functionality. -
I turn it off and it will wait anywhere from a few seconds to a few hours and turn itself back on. You can see how that can get annoying and I can't seem to solve the problem.

I seem to have lost carrier settings on my iPad1,I've tried a restore and update but get a message about the original sim card,which I still have but is inactive,really inconvenient as I can only use in wifi spots and off line mode,please help,sibear.
You might want to download something called an undelete utility. These can find files and recover them even after they appear to have been lost. There are some undelete utility programs that are free. Look at tucows.com
Also, it appears that you have POSSIBLY overwritten the actual files, which you moved manually, with I don't know what, which you moved in PSE's folder location view.
Next, in the future ... NEVER (that's: don't even think about it) move your photos in Windows. NEVER. NEVER. Not ever. Not once. This always (that's ALWAYS, as in 100% of the time) causes problems and usually makes things difficult to fix.
Lastly ... make regular backups! I must say this in the forums about seventy bazillion times a month. Make regular backups! Regular depends on how often you take photographs and edit them. Since my photographic activity usually happens on the weekends, I make backups every Sunday night. You may need a different schedule, depending on your activity level. MAKE REGULAR BACKUPS! -
I can't upload the music from my computer to my I touch. But I can upload photos.
I can't upload the music from my computer to my I touch. But I can upload photos.
iTunes will only copy Apple purchases from your device, it won't copy music bought from other sites or that you've copied from CDs. Have you not got a backup of your content on, for example, an external drive that you can copy onto your new Mac ? That would be the quickest method but homesharing on itunes is also a possibility. Click here to see that:

If not then third party software will be able to copy and paste your files however depending on the file size, they may charge money for their service.
Hope this helped! -

Hello railenemarie16, let's solve this mystery together! Have you tried deleting your contact from her device and then re-adding? Also, have her send you a message manually instead of from the saved contact. Did you have an iPhone previously before the Note 3 and used iMessage? Keep us posted!

I transferred my files from a G4 to a new macbook pro, but I can't access my old songs in itunes. I clicked on library in itunes and get the mac page to access mp3 and acc files but it doesn't work. Any suggestions?
They maybe corrupt, try transferring again from the g4. If iTunes is giving you an error then you need to authorize your computer with the same iTunes account as previously. Also, you could try exporting your iTunes library via iTunes on the g4.
