Keychain can't communicate with icloud

I am having an issue with my imac getting keychain turned on for icloud.
Keychain appears to function normally on my iPad and iPhone4S - They are saving passwords in safari, etc.
I recently had an issue where I had to use my AppleID to reset my administrator password, and after that keychain ceased to function on my imac.
I followed the steps to set aside the old 'login' keychain, and created a new one one named Notharcus, which I have written down relevant password information for. Then I went forward and used my computer normally and all seemed well until I went to some favored websites and noticed that passwords weren't saving. I then did a little research and ended up setting up the screensaver/sleep mode password in order to autofill even when websites do not want autofill. This step didn't work either, so I went into System Preferences, and opened up iCloud and noticed that Keychain was unchecked! However, when I attempted to check the box, it prompted me for my AppleID and then immediately popped up an error.
The spinning 'busy' icon next to keychain continued until I closed the window.
When this happened, I then did some searching on the forums and I found
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4644 - iCloud Keychain Trouble shooting - did not have an answer for me that I could find, although I tried several options that sounded close.
https://discussions.apple.com/message/23509286#23509286 was a thread that gave me hope of a simple fix, and the only thread i could find with my same error message. The fix did not work however.

Hi
I had the same problem and the linked solution involving restarting an AirPort didn't work for me either.
But, I did fix my problem.
Try running Keychain Access > Repair Keychain
It gave me this weird Local Access keychain prompt. I followed these instructions:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5362
Then when I reset, I was able to reenable iCloud Keychain.
Hope this helps,

Frustrating that either my mac can communicate with iCloud alone or my iphone , But the information on my calendar is not merging! My password on my yahoo account is according to icloud wrong , but it isn't ! Only pages and other apps could be passed to the i phone . The local store says I should pay for them solving the problem . I doubt they will listen to all the aspects before I search again and again (and pay again and again??) Allready been there many times, downloaded many things!!

She was as frustrated as I and was going to kick the problem "upstairs." She felt that by now iCloud had been out long enough for them to have resolved the issues without having to resort to fixes from the outside (so in essence, I would have to say that she agrees with you that they should be able to provide a resolution for their own software).
I have more than just that issue on my MBP (iPhoto keeps asking me to "upgrade" everytime I open it, old Safari windows open when I restart or turn the machine on from a shutdown....I think it's possessed. I'm able to do everything that I want to do, but it's very annoying....) and so I'll be working with her again when she returns to work on Monday. I do have to say that she doesn't rush and has spent at a minimum 2 hours each night for the last 2 nights with me over the phone (talk about califlower ear!)
She had me do a reinstall of Lion last night and as far as I can tell, it fixed nothing....

IChat can't communicate with my AIM account

Hi, every time i try go to to my ichat it automatically logs me out, and when i try to log back in, it says "iChat can't communicate with the AIM account 'aforever0203' and The AIM server has temporarily limited your account due to too much activity. Try again in a few minutes" This has been happening for days, please help!

HI,
Go here https://settings.aim.com/
Can you sign in there ?
This will not work for newer @me.com and @icloud.com IDs issued under iCloud ( I notice there are at least 2 Me Toos clicked)
With Apple IDs there have been issues over the last few months about accounts getting Suspended when people have travelled to foreign lands.
The "normal" fix with AIM names is to Change the Password but obviously changing the Apple Passwords cannot be seen by AIM.
In that case you need This link about Suspended accounts and you need to use the TOS General email address.
(You need to explain very carefully that you have an Apple ID and that AIM cannot see any Password Change and that they will have to reset the account manually - some support staff seem not to know that Apple have an agreement that Apple IDs are also AIM Valid Names)
If it is a plain AIM name a Password reset should correct the issue.

IChat can't communicate with the AIM account error window! please help!

Hello, I have been trying to connect to my AIM account via iChat and for some reason it doesn't let me. A window saying the following appears:
"iChat can't communicate with the AIM account "name of account".
"An undefined AIM socket error has occurred."
Please help with this. What is going on?

Hi,
An @Mac.com name is a valid AOL/AIM Screen Name.
Any Issues and the AIM servers will say the AOL/AIM name or password is incorrect.
As I said earlier, there can be issues if when you create an @Mac.com or even a MobileMe account Apple lets you create passwords of up to 20 characters (I think).
The issues is the AIM Server can check the name with Apple but don't parse Passwords that have more then 16 characters (You have to change the Password to 16 characters or less).
There is also another issue.
Creating a Name at the @Mac.com page allows you to use spaces as valid characters (As In ralph [email protected]) but again the AIM servers cannot parse these names as Spaces are not Valid at AIM
Use iForgot to check the name. You can also change passwords via this.
Use the On Line option and answer the security questions.
That should confirm whether the account/Screen Name/Apple ID works.
Then go to this page https://settings.aim.com/
Use the Sign In option top right.
Enter your @mac.com name and password (It will read AOL at the next page to do that)
If it works properly then you should be returned to the page I linked you to but it will now have your Screen Name showing above the menu area.
This will confirm that the @Mac.com name is accepted as a AIM Screen Name.
If you are still having issues, go to the iChat Menu > Preferences > Accounts
In the Account Info tab make sure you are logged out (Deselect "Use this Account")
Go to the Server settings tab
Change the port from 5190 to 443 (it may also pay to deselect SSL)
Log back in again.
Deleting com.apple.ichat.AIM.plist may help.
If the issue is an incorrect password you may need to delete the entry from the KeyChain (Use KeyChain Access in the Applications/Utilities folder)
Hope this helps.

IChat can't communicate with AIM account

iChat can't communicate with AIM account - I've looked at ALL threads and no success to troubleshooting
Looked into this: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3558055?tstart=0
I've tried changing my Port number - FAIL
I tried restarting and deleting account - FAIL
Tried creating a new account - FAIL, says there's an error
Tried going through Go > Finder > Library > Preferences to delete the com.apple.ichat.AIM.plist - FAIL, couldn't find in the folder either
Tried going through keychains and permissions - FAIL
I've had the same account for over 13 years (maybe that's why, ha!) and I did nothing to change any settings. Please help! Work depends on it!

Hi,
If it is an AIM name (i.e. Registered at AIM) then there seems to be a rush of Suspended Accounts recently.
Some have found that touring abroad seems to be the latest reason.
You then need to go to the Suspended Account Help Page and use the TOS General Email link.
If you have an @Mac.com name that is of course a Valid AIM Screen Name as well as an Apple ID means that the password has to be changed at Apple.
However the AIM server cannot tell that this has been done.
One person reported recently that the person they contacted via the TOSGeneral email link did not seem to know about the agreement with Apple that AIM has and that they had to change the "Flagging" on the account at their end.
Although a "Hacking" of an AIM account is not unheard of it is rare.
The TOS General link is still the best route I know of on that score.

I accepted a recent update for iTunes and now my version of Spin Doctor can't communicate with it any more. I don't think I can upgrade the Spin Doctor without buying a new program. Is there a way to undo the last iTunes update?

I accepted a recent update for iTunes and now my version of Spin Doctor can't communicate with iTunes, specifically, I can't get music files to go over to iTunes. Spin Doctor gives me a message indicating that iTunes isn't working properly.
I am using iTunes 9.1.1(12) and Spin Doctor 3.1.1.304t. I have investigated upgrading the Spin Doctor but I think too much time has passed and the version available are too far advanced.
Any ideas? Can I undo the iTunes upgrade? Is there a website that I can go to to get the upgrade for my Spin Doctor?
Thanks.
Mary

If your iMac is an Intel CPU model, you can upgrade the OS to OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard.
Then use software update to update 10.6 Snow Leopard to OS X 10,6.8.
Then you can run the latest iTunes to sync your iPad running iOS 6
You can purchase OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard by calling Apple at 1-800-MYAPPLE. Ask for retail software sales and purchase a copy of 10.6 for $19.99 plus shipping.

Computer Can't Communicate With Printer

Hi,
After installing Win 8.1 on two different computers, both have the same printing problem.
The first problem that appears is "Bidirectional Support" must be enabled... It was enabled in Win 8 prior to the upgrade...
It took awhile to figure out how to enable it, as after every attempt to check the box, the check would disappear after closing and reopening the window.
It turns out that this won't work with the printer connected. After disconnecting the printer the setting will stick, and when the printer is reconnected it stays that way...
Unfortunately this doesn't resolve the problem... Now I get the error that the computer "Can't Communicate With The Printer"
Attempts to reinstall the software\drivers have been for the most part useless... Even after removing the printer in Devices and Printers and uninstalling the software\drivers, the Driver installer insists that the drivers are still installed and will only
"Update" them, or "Install Another Copy"... neither of which resolves the problem...
On one occasion, I was able to get a complete install, but only after doing a search through the Registry and Deleting everything that came up concerning the printer... This still didn't resolve the problem.
On one machine, after doing this, the Print Spooler would hang and run the CPU at 50% indefinitely. After playing around awhile, I found that if I turned off the Print Spooler in "Services" while it was doing this, and then restart it, the file
would actually print properly...
I have checked the settings in Windows Firewall, and everything for the printer is "Allowed". I even turned the Firewall off to no effect...
This is a Lexmark X5340 USB inkjet printer that works perfectly on the same machines when running Win 7 or Win 8 with all the same connections, software, drivers, and etc....
Is there something different with Win 8.1 than Win 8 concerning printers?

Hi,
I wanted to let you know that I've stumbled upon a way to get the Lexmark software\drivers to reinstall on the Win 8 to 8.1 Upgrade...
It has to do with the Print Spooler interfering with the uninstall\reinstall process. I had read about a recommendation to turn off the Print Spooler before uninstalling the software quite some time ago, and I had tried that, but it didn't work. Here are
the tricks to get it to work if it isn't too late for you.
Note: Bidirectional Support is needed, and for some reason the upgrade process turns it off. This may also be related to the Print Spooler....
1) Turn on and hook up your printer... This needs to be done just this one time to get it to show up in Devices and Printers.... Otherwise, all I get with my machine is the Lexmark Fax, and as a result, you can't "Remove" the printer.
2) Once the printer is visible in Devices and Printers, unhook it..
3) "REMOVE" the Lexmark Printer and Lexmark Fax (if you have one) in Devices and Printers.
4) Stop the Print Spooler in "Services"
5) Uninstall the software\drivers... In the process of doing this, I got a popup Security message from Windows Firewall concerning "Allowing" Printer Communication... I selected "Allow".
6) At the prompt from the Lexmark uninstaller, Reboot.
7) After rebooting, stop the Print Spooler again.
8) Reinstall software\drivers... I used both XP SP3 and Vista Compatibility Mode on different attempts, and both worked... Hook the printer back up when prompted by the installer.
9) Unhook the printer again and reboot. Bidirectional Support must be Enabled, and the setting won't stick if the printer is hooked up.. You need to reboot to clear things up before the next step.
10) Enable Bidirectional Support and Reboot. To do this, go to Devices and Printers and select "Printer Properties" and then the "PORTS" tab... The check box is near the bottom.
11) Set any Printer Preferences you use, if any, and it's ready to go.
I just noticed that when I right click on the Lexmark Preferences, Properties, etc., it is showing two of them for some reason. I don't remember that happening the first time I tried this, but I might have missed it.
I'll need to investigate that a bit.
EDIT... It seems the second printer doesn't show up until after Enabling Bidirectional Support...
I guess that makes a little bit of sense... two printers for two directions.
Thanks for the info. I found it was necessary to change the print spooler. You will also need to set another service that is used during printing that provides screen interaction for the print spooler. Make both of them automatic.

Device Control doesn't show Firewire & I can't communicate with my AJA IO

Device Control doesn't show Firewire & I can't communicate with my AJA IO
Posted: Aug 1, 2006 9:10 AM in response to: Patrick Sheffield
Click to reply to this topic Reply email Email
I've seen one other post about this and I've tried the responses to it: trash prefs, rebuild permissions, reboot the computer (let it rest and uplug), trash quicktime receipts and reinstall, uninstall AJA software and reinstall.
The only thing I haven't tried is reinstalling my OS.
I'm on FCP HD.
I can capture and print to tape as an uncontrollable device. But I need to edit to tape tomorrow using the RS-422 to my digibeta deck via the AJA IO. It has worked in the recent past (last month), but in the past two weeks I can't control my deck.
Also, I get the message "This computer does not have any serial ports required by this protocol" when I try to set up a new RS-422 AV device control setting.
Help!

Jerry, I can't thank you enough. I still have a few hairs left on my head thanks to you.
I downgraded my AJA firmware and that did the trick.
I had been on the phone with AJA last week tryingto fix this problem and we had tried everything except that. You know, the trash quicktime receipts, trash prefs, hard re-boot, etc.
They were stumped and finally decided it was a Mac problem not an AJA problem. Ha! (Very nice folks though.)
Your's was an answer I didn't find anywhere else in all my searching of forums.
Thanks again!

How can I communicate with other applications from my Java application?

Hello,
I need help about how can i communicate with other application(say textpad.exe/wordpad.exe/MS word.exe) from my Java program.
More precisely, I need to know how i can get the current position of the cursor whether it is in any .txt/.doc files, then I may write some text in my java application and click a button and then my program will append the line(string) in that position of the file which is running under another appliction(Notepade.exe/MSword.exe).
Please provide me some help.

I may be wrong (and anyone, please correct me if so), but Java may not be the best tool for something such as this. I envision that you'd have to make some OS calls such as calls to the user32.dll, and while this can be done through the JNI, you'd still have to have a C or C++ program doing the dirty work.

Link 1.2.0 says "can't communicate with device"

Hi guys, my z10 running the official version of 10.2.1.537 can't connect to my blackberry link anymore. I update the link and since then, hasn't been working. I uninstalled it and re-installed but still nothing. I get the message on it saying "can't communicate with device" and that i should do a restore back to factory settings. Does anyone know what to do to solve this issue without having to restore?

There is not anything specific for Mac, did you at least try the below.
Launch BlackBerry Link.
Connect the BlackBerry 10 smartphone to the computer.
Note: The following messages should be displayed:BlackBerry Link cannot communicate with the connected device.
Power the BlackBerry 10 smartphone off and then on again.
When prompted again with the error (BlackBerry Link cannot communicate with the connected device.), ignore the warning message, however, do not dismiss or cancel it. Allow the smartphone to fully boot up to the home screen.
After 3-5 minutes the driver should install successfully and allow BlackBerry Link to continue the device setup.
The only other possible resolution is to remove the "BlackBerry Smartphone Drivers" reboot Mac and phone then reconnect phone to Mac.

Migration between two environments which can't communicate with each other

My customer is intending to do migration from test environment to production environment using CCM.
But the two environments are not in the same network.
The environments' setting is as blew.
BO TEST Repository can communicate with Web BO Server.
BO PRODUCTION Repository (Cluster environment) can communicate with Web BO Server.
BO TEST Repository and BO PRODUCTION Repository (Cluster environment) are in the different network, they can't communicate with each other.
Setting Target Repository manually in CCM.
Questions are:
1. In CCM, as long as both Source Repository and Target Repository can communicate with Web BO Server, the migration will be successful.
Is that right?
2. If 1 is not right, is there additional setting should I do?
For example, If I need to open some firewall port?
3. Is there other attentions should I notice?
Thanks

Yes that is correct
2. If 1 is not right, is there additional setting should I do?
For example, If I need to open some firewall port?
You have another option which is to use the BIAR files. Export your objects to a BIAR file in source environment, and import them from BIAR into the target environment
3. Is there other attentions should I notice?
when using BIAR files as solution, Make sure that you keep them < 1GB size to avoid corruption
you may have to increase or adjust timeouts on input and output repository servers as well

Messages can't communicate with the account "AIM." Cannot log in to AIM. General error. Try again

Hi,
For the first time today, I've been having problems connecting to AIM using Messages. I get the "Messages can't communicate with the account "AIM." Cannot log in to AIM. General error. Try again." error. I looked at the forums here and I tried deleting my account, restarting my computer, reinstalling the account but to no avail.

Wlc can't communicate with dhcpserver

Our wlc can't communicate with any host on vlan Z (subnet 192.168.1.0/24). The wlc itself is in a different vlan. All communication to other vlans works just fine. I've temporarly disabled the access-lists for vlan Z, without success. A host in the same subnet as the wlc is able to establish communication with a host in vlan Z.
How to solve this problem?
Kind regards,
D vd Wege

Please see link below. For inter vlan to work you have to configure dhcp option 43 on your dhcp server. Hope this help you.
