Keychain Invalid and unable to login to secure server

Hi - I am unable to log into secure servers (eg, gmail) and i am getting an "invalid keychain" message when trying to purchase music from the itunes store. I couldn't log into the support page either and had to use another machine. This just started happening perhaps after a s/w update? I ran keychain firstaid, but my keychains seem to be in good order. Any suggestions would be great.

Hi Hadi, and a warm welcome to the forums!
Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot.
The usual reason why updates fail or mess things up, is if Permissions are not fixed before & after every update, with a reboot... you may get a partial update when the installer finds it doesn't have Permissions to change one obscure little part of the OS, leaving you with a mix of OS versions.
Some people get away without Repairing Permissions for years, some for only days.
If Permissions are wrong before applying an update, you could get mixed OS versions, if Directory is the slightest messed up, who knows!
If many Permission are repaired, or any Directory errors are found, you may need to re-apply some the latest/biggest updates.

"Unable to connect to secure server." Why?

Safari previously operating OK under OS 10.3.9 suddenly starts reporting "Unable to connect to secure server" with a number of (maybe all?) <https://> sites. Explorer doesn't exhibit this problem. Removing Safari .plist, clearing caches, and removing ~/Library/Safari folder do not help.
Any ideas on what to try next?
Thanks,
Steve.

I am running OS X 10.3.9 as well. I normally use Firefox as my browser, it runs fine. However all my software updates use Safari as their browser, so I have stopped getting all security updates. Also, I've been unable to access the iTunes Music Store, and Photoshop Elements hasn't worked in a while (I assume they use Safari to connect to the internet).
Does anyone know of a fix. Or how do I simply get Software Updates, iTunes, and Photoshop to start connecting through Firefox?
Can anyone help? Thanks.

Unable to login to secure sites with safari

I am no longer able to login to secure web sites on my iPhone 4 (iOS 5.0.1) using Safari. I am assuming it occurred after the latest iOS update. After entering my credentials, I am brought back to the login page; no errors.
If I login using a mobile app, that works. It appears to be limited to Safari.
Anyone else see this issue?
Thank you.

Map linux shared folders to Z drive in Windows Client. Unable to login through Samba Server

Hi,
I am trying to map my linux machine to a network drive Z in Windows 7 . I added user guid in smbusers and created a password for this user through smbpasswd . Started Samba server on linuc, but when trying to create a network drive, it is asking for the login. I used credentials as GUID/<CREATEDPWD> . Not able to login with these credentials. Am I missing something. My Domain is ORADEV. I attached related files smb.conf,lmhosts,smbusers files. Please let me know if i am not configuring samba server correctly.
Here is the sm.conf file Details :
# This is the main Samba configuration file. You should read the
# smb.conf(5) manual page in order to understand the options listed
# here. Samba has a huge number of configurable options (perhaps too
# many!) most of which are not shown in this example
# Any line which starts with a ; (semi-colon) or a # (hash)
# is a comment and is ignored. In this example we will use a #
# for commentry and a ; for parts of the config file that you
# may wish to enable
# NOTE: Whenever you modify this file you should run the command "testparm"
# to check that you have not made any basic syntactic errors.

Hi,
To clarify a couple of things:
1- "reverse-route" does not have anything to do with this issue, the problem relies on the Windows 7 machine.
2- Do you connect with an Admin account (Windows admin)?
3- Do you run the VPN client as an administrator?
4- Have you tried to disable any AV or software protection on the machine (just for testing).?
Let me know.
Portu.

Unable to login to Directory Server: SaveChangeException

I saw an earlier posting that reported a similar problem but there was no answer to the question so I will post the question again.
I have just installed Oracle Directory Server but I am unable to login with the default username/password. I can connect if I leave the User and Password fields empty but when I specify orcladmin/welcome I get the error below. Does anyone know what the problem could be and how I can fix it?
Bind of request to LDAP Server failed.
oracle.ldap.admin.common.SaveChangeException: Bind of request to LDAP Server failed.
at oracle.ldap.admin.Root.saveChanges(Root.java:815)
at oracle.ldap.admin.common.AdminPropView.saveChanges(AdminPropView.java:710)

at oracle.ldap.admin.client.AdminUtil$logonCmds.run(AdminUtil.java:727)
at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java)

I figured it out. For anyone else searching for this problem: the issue was that OID was not started. All I needed to do was start it (oidctl .... start) and it seems to be ok now. In any case, I feel a little silly for not starting things up properly but in my defense the error message did not help at all.

My 4th generation iPod Touch won't let me get on to the App Store. When I log on to iTunes, an alert pops up that says the certificate for the server is invalid, and that it may be a server pretending to be iTunes. What should I do?

My iPod won't let me on to the App Store, and whenever I go on to ITunes, an alert pops up that the certificate for the server is invalid, and that I may be connecting to a server that is only pretending to be iTunes.apple.com and my personal info may be at risk. I downloaded an emulator yesterday from coolroms.com but deleted the app this afternoon. I cleared my safari search data, my cookies and data, and web inspector, which still didn't work. I then proceeded to reset my iPod and then download the newest version of IOS 6.1.5 but yet still am having problems. Also to the App Store and iTunes, several other apps aren't working. Any help here?

Also, when I go on to safari, another alert pops up that safari cannot verify the identity of the website, anything that I type in to as common as google.com. It gives me 3 options to either cancel, look at details, and continue. I've looked at the details of the website of Google and it is legitimate the site. Any help?

Unable to login to imac server os x 10.6

All of a sudden I reboot my imac server os x 10.6, and I can login with my name and password!!!!
Please help

You've tried all the obvious? Caps lock... Restarting the server, cables are all properly connected... Pushed the computer off the desk? (just kidding)
Also, try logging in as a different user. you can still access server admin etc, you just need to re enter the address etc.

Errors while Starting SOA Suite and Unable to login to BPEL Control

Hi,
I installed SOA Suite 10g Release 3 on my laptop and I have Windows XP operating system on my laptop.
I am trying to login to BPEL control.
I did following steps.
a) started SOA Suite (Mid tier status is showing as 100%) but OC4JGroup:default_group status is showing as Init and ASG status as Down.
b) I tried to login to BPEL control by entering user id: oc4jadmin and password I entered while installing SOA Suite, BPEL control is giving me error message invalid user name or password.
I tried to build CreditRatingService using BPEL developer prompt.
Select Start > All Programs > Oracle - Oracle_Home > Oracle BPEL Process Manager > Developer Prompt to open up a command prompt at the SOA_Oracle_Home\bpel\samples directory.
Changed directories to the utils\CreditRatingService subdirectory:
cd utils\CreditRatingService
Entered the following command: ant
I got message:BUILD FAILED and Authentication failed for user oc4jadmin on host.

Slow Start up and unable to login

Hi
I am having a bizarre problem with Mac OSX 10.4.9 on a PPC G5.
When I boot the Mac up it takes ages to start up. Once it crawls its way through the start up.
It opens with the manual login prompt (type in your user name and password) it loses the list of users icons.
When I try to manually enter the user name and passwords it refuses to accept them.
I have even tried booting off the install CD repairing disk and pemissions.
I even tried reseting user account with new passwords using the password reset utility on the install disk it does not see the user account at all.
Though if I boot off a external hard drive it works fine and I can see the user account folders on the G5's local disk.
I have also tried single user mode using fsck to repair it finds no problems.
If anyone has ideas what is causing and how to fix the problem would be appreciated.

Stuck and unable to login, white screen with user photo

I installed Yosemite about a week ago on my mid-2011 Air and it's been working just fine. Last night I closed the computer as usual, putting it to sleep.
This morning when I opened it again, the login screen is not loading properly and I'm getting a white screen instead with my user avatar only, no password input field, and one calendar notification stuck in the the corner.
The mouse cursor moves around, but no response otherwise. The display goes dark/sleep after I don't touch it for 30 seconds.
A friend of mine said that something similar happened to him and he just waited (several hours) until the log in screen loaded properly, and that if I tried to do anything it could wipe all my data.
Anyone else having this issue? Haven't been able to find anything yet. Please Help! Photo is attached.
EDIT: Just noticed that when I move the mouse to hover over where the password field *should* be, the cursor changes from the arrow to a text input cursor.

Hi Jnnn,
I Have the same problem on MBPro 2012. You can just type your password and hit enter to login... (At least that works for me...)
BTW, mine has the same behaviour when opening the lid to wake up from sleep mode, every time again!
Hope it helps,
Grtz, P.

Old domain was removed and Unable to login as domain administrator account in windows 7 laptop

I have a problem with a laptop which is in old domain, due to some issue I need to uninstall some of the programs on that machine for
that it is asking administrator password, so when I was entering old domain’s administrator account password it is not logging in, and there is no other local administrator account configured on that machine, how to log in into that machine and join that to
the new domain.
I am trying to log in as <domain-name>\administrator

Hi,
Logon to a domain with domain account is an interactive process, which needs cooperation of both DC and DNS. Since the old domain is delete, then, log in as <domain-name>\administrator to the old domain will failed.
Open CMD, type “net user”, and press Enter to display user account of this computer. Check to see if any account which has administrator permission you can remember.
Besides, type “net user administrator”, if the Account Active is YES, try to use this built-in administrator account to logon:
Press Alt + Ctrl + Delete, select Switch User -> Other User, type <computer name>\administrator. (there may be no password if you haven’t set this)
If there is no administrator permission account which you can use to logon, reinstall the system should be needed.
Best Regards,
Eve Wang

Unable to login into Essbase server

Hi all,
I have installed Shared services and Essbase, I did "Externalize Users" in Essbase. It happened successfully. My understanding on this Externalize user is
"Essbase runs in Shared Services mode and in this mode Essbase create, Edit User permission becomes obsolete. You must be an Essbase administrator to manage users, and you must additionally be a Shared Services administrator to manage users from Shared Services"
Is this correct please validate. If this is correct, then if you change the password in shared services and sync the native directory in shared services, Essbase should work with new password but this is not happening when i try to connect the Essbase server it is throwing the below error.
"Error: 1051293: Login fails due to invalid login credentials"
Is there any other activity that has to be done in this process. I dont have clear idea on this Externalize users can any one explain.
Can any one help me in this urgent issue.
Regards,
Ramachandran J

Hi All,
Thanks for the reply. I have few more doubts.
At the time of configuring the Shared services the default login will be admin and password. But when i configure the Essbase with Shared services in Configuration Utility i had given the different user name as "essadmin".
So i have followed the following steps to do Externalize users in Essbase:-
1. Just created the same "essadmin" user in shared services
2. Done externalize users in Administration services first inside Essbase console, while doing that i have given my own password.
3. Then went into the specific Essbase server and right clicked security and externalized users there, here also while doing that i have given my own password.
By doing this step externalize users worked successfully and i can sink the user with shared services.
Can you let me know whether the above steps are correct or any other procedure is available??
And i have one more doubt....
Once externalize users has been done, all the essbase sample database and Analytic services got migrated to Shared services. Then i have created new planning application which reflected in both essbase and shared services.
Then i loged into shared services and created a new user, then granted only one specific sample application and planning application to that user and sinc with database and also i loged into planning application and refreshed database.
Then i logged into essbase with the newely created username and password... but i noticed that there is no Essbase server available with the new user login. So i added the same essbase server with "external authentation" ticked.
Once this is done all the availble application appeared in his login, Here it has Not restricted only to the applicaiton which i have given access to that user, it is showing all the application and also allowing to edit the application.
I just want to restrict a particular application to one particular user to edit the outline in essbase and this has to be acheived by giving access restriction in shared services.... now i am unable to acheive the same. Can any one help me in doing so???

Unable to login to wiki server

I've set up 10.6 (updated to 10.6.1) Server on my old Mini, made it an OD Master, and am trying to get the Wiki to work.
I can login to the /changepassword URL without issue, but when I try the "Log into my page" link at /groups it fails to authenticate.
I found my first problem was that I had WEBDAV-DIGEST disabled in my OD configuration (really? this has to be enabled?), but it still fails to authenticate to the wiki and the ApplePasswordServices.Server.log claims that an invalid password was given (though the same U&P work for /changepassword, AFP, and other services).
Anyone have ideas what the problem might be?
Thanks,

could you help me to fix this sooon.....

I keep getting This Connection is Untrusted and I'm on a secure server. What is this and how can I fix it?

I have checked the security information and nothing seems to affect this issue. I've restarted my computer with no resolution.

hi vijaysampath, first please make sure that the date, time & timezone are set correctly on your system. if this doesn't solve the issue (or it is already set properly), a possible solution depends on different factors:
* what is the '''error code''' shown under ''technical details'' on the error page?
in case the error code equals ''sec_error_unknown_issuer'', please attempt to add an exception on the bottom of the error page in order to inspect the certificate like it is shown on the screenshot attached:
* which '''issuer information''' does the certificate contain?
please report back with those two pieces of information. thank you!
