ITunes 9 using old proxy settings

(Using iTunes 9.0.3.15 on a Win2k domain with a non-authenticating proxy server.)
When you access the app store you now get a iTunes login for your proxy server and if you check the prompt to save your settings it saves that password in some undetermined location that can not be changed when you eventually have to change your ad password. Our proxy server does not care about authentication, but apparently if you enter your domain account it still passes that along for verification with the domain controller? Then iTunes still keeps passing that old password along which then locks out the ad account.
Any suggestions? Where is iTunes storing this login and where can this box be unchecked?

Did you ever find an answer to this question? I have been wondering this myself.

  • Windows - Use system proxy settings not working as expected

    Hi everyone,
    I have a bit of an issue that I could use some help with. We currently have remote users that utilize an SSTP VPN connection to access our internal network. Once connected, those users are required to use an internal proxy server to connect to the Internet. The proxy server is Microsoft's TMG and utilized domain authentication.
    On our remote Windows clients we have their Internet Options configured to utilize a proxy as follows:
    Internet Options -> Connections -> LAN Settings -> No proxy configured at all
    Internet Options -> Connections -> Highlight SSTP Connection -> Settings
    Use a proxy server for this connection -> IP/Port of Proxy Server
    Firefox and Chrome are both configured to use system proxy settings.
    Here is my process to demonstrate the issues:
    Remote client workstation is rebooted.
    With the above configuration just after a reboot, a remote user that is not connected to the VPN can browse the Internet with Internet Explorer, Chrome, and Firefox. None of the browsers prompt for credentials.
    A remote VPN connection is then established.
    FF is opened and HTTP connections utilize the proxy server. However, HTTPS connections do not use the proxy server, but instead attempt to use the default gateway. FF does not prompt for credentials. FF is closed.
    Chrome is opened and can access both HTTP and HTTPS sites without issue. No credential prompt. Chrome is closed.
    IE is opened and can access both HTTP and HTTPS sites without issue. No credential prompt. IE is closed.
    Here's where it gets weirder...
    FF is then reopened. The VPN connection is still up. FF will prompt for credentials. Domain credentials are supplied and FF can now utilize the proxy for both HTTP and HTTPS connections. FF is closed.
    VPN is disconnected.
    FF is opened and cannot access the Internet as it is still trying to use the proxy server. FF is closed.
    IE is opened and can access the Internet. IE is closed.
    Chrome is opened and can access the Internet. Chrome is closed.
    FF is reopened and can now access the Internet. FF is closed.
    In summary, in the above scenario FF acts in an unexpected manner with regards to proxy usage when "use system proxy settings" is applied. However, Firefox begins acting as expected after IE is opened and closed. For example, connect to VPN, open IE, close IE, open FF, and everything works accordingly. Disconnect the VPN, open IE, close IE, open FF and everything works as expected.
    Any insight you can provide would be appreciated as it is affecting our FF users and the sooner we can achieve resolution the better. As a note, we've also worked through this issue with WPAD and proxy auto-detect. I've intentionally removed these from the equation to simplify troubleshooting.
    Thanks

    Quick update. Added to a previously filed bug. Looks like it's assigned now so maybe we'll see a fix for this soon.

  • Firefox not detecting/using system proxy settings

    I use a command line script to change among various proxies (and none). Firefox does not recognize when a proxy is turned on or fails to connect to it (no error messages), while other browsers and applications do just fine.
    I have tried selecting "Use system proxy settings" and "Auto-detect proxy settings for this network."
    My script contains these lines to activate a proxy
    reg add "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Connections" /v DefaultConnectionSettings /t REG_BINARY /d 46000000b10000000200000014000000736f636b733d3132372e302e302e313a313131311c0000002a2e6c6f63616c3b3139322e3136382e31312e2a3b3c6c6f63616c3e000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 /f
    reg add "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings" /v ProxyEnable /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f
    reg add "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings" /v MigrateProxy /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f
    The first line enables the proxy to take effect without entering inetcpl.cpl. Again, this works for any application other than Firefox.
    The proxies are all through ssh with port forwarding.
    I do not want to manually configure a proxy in Firefox, because I do not want to change this every time I need to change proxies or turn them off. This is not an acceptable solution.
    I am on Windows 8.1 64bit, with Firefox version 35.0
    Any idea what might be going on here?

    Thank you for the response, but as above, the "Auto-detect proxy settings for this network." setting does not work.

  • Can lync client use internet proxy settings to proxy edge servers, if direct access is not reachable?

    Hi everybody I am trying to Login with my lync Client out of my organization. So I am using lync as a remote user. I am in another organization, and I am using their coporate lan wired and wireless, but I cannot Login to lync in my organization.
    I see that I cannot Access my edge Server on port 443 to authenticate directly, I know that Client in this organization use Internet Proxy to browse the Internet. they have a .pac in their ie Settings.
    my question is; can lync Client use Internet Proxy Settings to reach the Destination? I mean the Access edge on port 443?
    or it can use only Client direct Access to reach the edge Servers?
    I Think that the answer is that I use tcp protocol and not http, and maybe that is the reason why I cannot use the Internet Explorer Proxy Settings to reach the Access edge Servers, different maybe is the case I Need to reach the reverse Proxy for live Meetings.
    Hope my question is clear.
    Thanks

    Proxy settings are used to tell Internet Explorer the network address of an intermediary server (known as a proxy server) that is used between the browser and the Internet on some networks.
    Lync client doesn’t use Internet Proxy Setting. You need to access the Edge service directly.

  • Use System Proxy Settings - when this is selected in FF v3.6.6, does it adhere to the same local IE proxy setting? We use a pac file configured in "Use automatic configuration script."

    Does anyone know what Firefox looks at locally on the PC when the "Use System Proxy Settings" setting is selected? It appears to be the default setting, recently changed from "No Proxy" of versions past...
    Our company uses a pac file specified in IE under "Use automatic configuration script" - with this new default, does it adhere to the same setting in:
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings]

    I may be wrong but I think that the "Use System Proxy Settings" makes sense only on Linux and generally speaking "other OSes". As far as I know there is no generic proxy settings in Windows operating system.
    The one I know is in the registry part of Internet Explorer.
    So in my understanding in Windows, Use System Proxy Settings = No Proxy

  • "Use system proxy settings" Not working on Mac OS X Snow Leopard

    When I change the network location or when I select "Use system proxy settings" on the connetion configuration dialog.
    Firefox is not using the proxy defined on the loction set on Mac OS X Snow Leopard.
    I usualy change from work to home, at work I've a proxy and at home I don't, and it's a bit annoying to have to change the proxy twice a day. So I tryed this feature, but It's not working for me.
    I've tryed also with Firefox 3.6 (I think) and didn't work either.

    I run it from eclipse, and on debug mode i checked the value of
    java.library.path, and it was ok.
    Any way, how can i do what you suggested on mac?It's just a command line argument, but there's no reason to add it if your
    java.library.path is ok. One of its componenents must be a directory where
    your shared lib is stored, that's all. BTW, the Mac is unix based isn't it?
    Shouldn't it be an .so file then? (just a wild guess)
    kind regards,

  • How to stop Quicktime using IE Proxy Settings

    Hi there,
    My company's Proxy Server (Microsft ISA Server) requires Windows Integrated authentication which Quicktime does not support so QT web access fails.
    We have a Winsock Proxy component installed on the clent but for this to come into play we need to configure Quicktime not to use IE Proxy Settings as otherwise QT tries to talk to the Proxy server and cannot authenticate.
    I have spent a number of hours looking into this but cannot find any way to do this. I know a lot of app's allow you to turn off using IE's Proxy settings and wanted to se if anyone knew how to do this with QT.
    Thanks in advance for any help on this,
    Ian

    Why not just right-click and save the linked file to your computer?
    Open the .mp3 with any app you choose.
    You can disable the QuickTime plug-in from playing .mp3 files in a browser window by opening the QT Control Panel/Advanced and click the MIME Settings button. Remove the check mark for the .mp3 format and restart your browser for this change to take effect.

  • I use the proxy settings add-on in Firefox to access my company server. However, I updated Firefox this morning to the latest version. Now this add-on doesn'tl.

    I used the proxy settings add-on to access the company server and wi-fi with my Android 2.36 phone.
    This morning I updated Firefox. The add-on doesn't work anymore. I uninstalled it and went to the add on website to reinstall what I thought must be a new version. This add-on doesn't seem to exist anymore.
    How do I change proxy settings with the new version of Firefox for Android?

    The author of the add-on will need to update their version to be compliant with our newly rewritten Firefox for Android product.
    The new version of Firefox does not provide a user-interface for manipulating proxy settings.
    On the other hand, you can manipulate these settings yourself at your own discretion by visiting the URL about:config and searching for network.proxy

  • How to delete old proxy settings?

    I used to have a proxy in my office -- until 2 years ago
    Since then I have removed it from my settings -- everything is blank under network preferences / advanced / proxies
    Most things work fine
    However once in a while some applications still try to go through those old settings I had -- I can see it because I have Little Snitch installed and it tells me that such and such an application is trying to access 192.168.20.1 on port 8080
    Today I installed a new application: Rubymine specifically. As it starts up it tries to go through the old proxy. The settings of that application under proxy are blank. It's a new application I never used before. if it cannot connect to the net it won't work.
    I even have a line in my .profile like so:
    unset http_proxy
    I have done a global search of the hard drive for files that contain that ip address, no luck.
    Has anyone encountered the same issue and solved it? Thank you in advance,
    dave

    You should have opened System Preferences->Network pane. Then at the top of the pane use the 'Location' And make a new custom named Location, that near the bottom of the pane (after creating the custom named Location) click on the "Apply" button To save the change. Lastly then put in the new network settings for the new network.

  • Moved library to external HD, iTunes still uses old iTunes Library.itl file

    Howdy-
    I'm running Windows 7 & iTunes XXX
    I moved my library from my laptop internal hard drive (C:\Users\jasonbar\Music\iTunes) to my external hard drive (G:\iTunes).
    I followed the recommended procedure:
    1 - Edit/Preferences: check "Keep iTunes Media Folder Organized"
    2 - Edit/Prefrences: click "Change" & input "G:\iTunes" into box to denote new library location
    3 - File/Library/Organize Library & check "Consolidate Files"
    Now, I've found that iTunes still uses the old "iTunes Library.itl" file in the old location (C:\Users\jasonbar\Music\iTunes).  For the sake of convenience (and to make the library entirely self-contained on the external HD & to protect it from possible laptop loss/failure), it would be swell if I could migrate that file over to my external hard drive also.  But, if I remove the "iTunes Library.itl" file from the old location & copy it to the new iTunes directory, iTunes just doesn't seem to be able to figure out that there's a nice "iTunes Library.itl" file on my external hard drive that it can use.
    Is there any way to achieve what I want?
    Thank you,
    -Jason

    I assume you have your iTunes folder located on your other drive (no Music folder enclosing it.) On your startup volume you have a /Home/Music/ folder but the iTunes folder has been removed. OK, so far?
    Go to where the real iTunes folder is located. Select the folder then CTRL or RIGHT-click and select Make alias from the contextual menu. You should see a new icon appear named "iTunes alias" with a little curly arrow in the lower left corner of the icon. Now, copy the alias file to the /Home/Library/Music/ folder on your startup volume. Rename it to just "iTunes" (no quotes.) Delete the alias you created on the other drive.
    Now when you double-click on the iTunes alias in your /Home/Music/ folder your real iTunes folder should open up. Now if you open iTunes application it should re-discover the iTunes folder.
    Or you can do what the other posted suggested. Simply point iTunes to the new location of your iTunes folder. Open iTunes Preferences, click on the Advanced icon in the toolbar. Click on the Change button, locate the new library location, click on OK button of the Open dialog.

  • Force iCloud to use network proxy settings.

    It seems that iCloud does not use the system wide proxy settings. I am in college and we must use the authenticated system proxy, and iCloud has been unable to update since I have been here. How can I force it to use the authenticated protocol?

    You need to talk to the IT people at your college.  College ITs can do strange things at times, I know, I work at one (but mine is very good at supporting macs and all things mac).

  • ITunes suddenly using old/wrong profile for iPhone?

    This happened about a week ago, but I wanted know if I'm the ony one.
    When I went to sync my iPhone I launched iTunes and it found my iPhone via WiFi.  I noticed that it said my contents were overloaded by several gigs, and my app bar was much larger than normal.  I cancelled the sync and looked at my iPhone; about 2 and a half screens worth of old apps were waiting to install.  I was able to stop them by removing them in the app tab in iTunes after reconnecting my iPhone.  Afterwords I noticed my iBooks were all messed up -- missing books and books from my library I did not want on my iPhone.  I spent an evening getting that resolved.  Then I noticed that my music playlists were also messed up in a similar way; it turned out that all of my selections under albums, artists and genres had been deselected.  Today I noticed that several of my ringtones are missing, so I'll have to resolve that when I get home.  Has anyone else experienced this?  Does anyone know what could have caused it?

    If there is a problem with the backup, transferring the backup will also transfer the problem.
    When connecting a new iPhone to iTunes on a computer used to sync with another iPhone, you are prompted to transfer the backup for the other iPhone to the new iPhone, or set up the new iPhone as a new iPhone or do not transfer the backup. Choose the latter.
