Mail acting up after Safari 3.2 Update.

Hello All,
Not sure weather this topic should be in the Safari Thread or here but here goes: After updating to Safari 3.2, all of a sudden Mail keeps asking for the passwords for all three of my email accounts. I type in my passwords for all three, then 5-10 minutes later, it asks for them again. I've had no problems with Mail until the Safari update. Has anyone else experienced this?
Thanks, and warmest regards,
Mike.

My wife and I are experiencing the same symptoms and although after entering the correct passwords and checking the remember box , It still happens and now is happening on my iphone as well.
We are also verizon subscribers. I searched through my keychain and preference files without finding anything unusual. However, canceling and then going to the " mailbox " menu and highlighting take all accounts online allows you to use your mail until the next time it pops up.
PS it does not affect our IMAP .mac or .me accounts.
Come on Apple, I didn't have any "phishing" problems anyway. ( The reason for the update)
And I have six POP accounts....
Hopefully someone over there figures out a patch or fix for us soon. It is the little things that get to us and also the little things that make us happy.
Happy Holidays to everyone

After Safari 5.1 update the following plugin is missing: Switchable Java Plug-in for WebKit

Hi, after Safari 5.1 update the following plugin is missing: Switchable Java Plug-in for WebKit Java Switchable Plug-in (Cocoa) — von der Datei “JavaPluginCocoa.bundle”. How can I add this plugin manually? Because some applets are not working now! I restored the OS to Safari 5.0.5,
now everything works fine. Is there any bugfix planned for Safari 5.1?

Thanks, already managed to fix it with Time Machine Back-Up, however, you need only to restore the Safari.app file (can be found in Applications in Time Machine at a date before the last software upgrade to Safari 5.1)
So, practically,
go to Enter Time Machine
-> browse (using the arrows at right hand bottom) to a date when everthing was still working
-> go to Finder
-> go to the hard drive (probably named Macintosh HD)
-> go to Applications
-> go to Safari.app
-> highlight Safari.app by clicking on it
-> hold 'ctrl' key and click again
-> select from the drop menu that appears 'Get Info'
-> next verify that is written 'version 5.0.5'
-> close Info drop menu
-> make sure the file Safari.app is still highlighted and click on 'Restore' under the arrows at righthand bottom of screen in Time Machine.
Now you can leave Time Machine by clicking on Cancel on lefthand bottom
Safari 5.0.5 will be added to the Applications under Safari.app (Safari 5.1 will also still be there and has the word (original) written behind it) drag this (original) marked file to the trash.
That's all, works very good and means the whole system does not have to be re-installed.
Hopefully Apple will cure this 5.1 version quickly - Make sure always to make a Time Machine Back-up before updating software!
Hope this works for you all!

After Safari 7.06 update, whenever I connect to RSA Juniper Network Connect, my internet connection get disconnected. It was an issue with old Safari versions. It was fixed around 6 months back with one of Safari update. But, now it is broken again.

My iPad is acting funny after 6.1.3 update the only way I see fixing this issue to downgrade but I can't find anything on downgrading

My iPad is acting funny after 6.1.3 update the only way I see fixing this issue to downgrade but I can't find anything on downgrading

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)

Fans acting up after 2010-01 security update

Hi there,
My MacPro (2,1) 8-core (16Gb) has it's fans acting up after the 2010-01 security update. This update came together with an update for Java. Being aware of the possibility that problems can rise when updating the two at the same time, I ran the security update first, then a restart, checked permissions, a restart and then the Java update and checked permissions again. However, now with only Safari or just the finder running the fans act up after a while. Even with the simplest tasks like opening a folder or dragging something or just running idle. It's not full blast but fast enough to be annoying.
I've done a SMC reset in conjunction with a 15min detachment of all cables, booted a few times in SafeMode, but no result. I hoped the 2010-02 security update would fix it but again no luck. Any ideas?

I've looked in the Activity Monitor (I hardly use it) and it gives me some strange data. Like Airport-BaseStation is running.
I don't have an Airport Base Station either, and Little Snitch is always asking if I want to allow it to phone home. So, mine must be running, at least sometimes, in the background also.
Sorry, don't have a real clue about this, but here's some other stuff to try.
First, see if this fan revving up happens in a new admin account and try a Safe Boot. Hold shift key down at startup chime. It will take some time to boot; let it go, it's doing some checking and repairing. The reboot into normal bootup will be slower than usual also.
if it were happening to me, I'd throw Applejack at it; must be from Single User, which BTW, is generally, a safer way to clear some caches. After it's installed, start up in Single User (CMD-S) and type in applejack and follow the on screen instructions for caches and pref files. Don't run anything out of order. If that doesn't do it, then you could try it in deep cache cleaning mode by typing in applejack AUTO.
You may not see the benefits until after several restarts, and since caches are made to speed things up, you may see some temporary slowness until these are rebuilt. If you run it in "Deep," you'll probably be asked to reauthorize some applications, which now think they're being opened for the first time.
Even if it doesn't help this time, it's a very useful tool to have on hand.

IPhone acting wierd after 1.1.3 update.

After the new software update, my iPhone screen stops responding randomly. It only happens while I'm on safari and the iPod. It only happens rarely on the iPod, but when on safari, it happens enough to be a nuisance. Is this a problem other people are having or is it my iPhone itself?

Have you tried the troubleshooting steps in the order I provided with my first post in this thread with the last being calling AppleCare or making an appointment at an Apple Store?
This is not normal except for getting slow to think from time to time with powering the iPhone off and on - which should be done with a GSM phone every few days or so regardless or a Reset which should take care of this aspect.
I power my iPhone off and on each morning before beginning the day and I usually do a Reset once a week or so just to keep things running smooth.

Mail behaving poorly after 10.4.10 update

Just updated the MBP to 10.4.10 about an hour ago. Now Mail is doing the following things:
• Will not automatically open a new message and address it when you click on a mail link on a website (e.g., craigslist).
• Will not quit. I have to force quit, every time.
• Occasionally, I'll start a new Mail message, but it will not let me type in the window.
Anyone else seeing this?

Did you install the update while doing other things with the computer?
Problems arising right after installing a system update are usually the result of the problem already being there, or some filesystem corruption that should have been fixed first, or not having installed the update properly (e.g. applications running while installing it), or having ignored Apple’s “Important: Please read before installing” warnings, etc.
The first and third issues you describe indicate that some Launch Services cache or preferences has become corrupt — not sure about the second, though, but repairing the disk might take care of that as well.
The following article describes how to manually reset Launch Services — the notes at the bottom of the article also provide information about the side effects of deleting each of the files involved:
Resetting Launch Services
If you prefer using a cache cleaning utility instead of following the manual procedure described in the previous article, take a look at this other article for general troubleshooting and cache-cleaning procedures. Actually, you should also verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described there:
Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption
The most appropriate utility for the Launch Services issue probably is Tiger Cache Cleaner, but you may also want to consider other utilities, such as OnyX, or Cache Out X, which are free. Whatever utility you choose, be sure to read this first:
Side effects of System cache cleaning
As an example, this is how you should proceed with OnyX:
1. Quit all applications.
2. Launch OnyX and enter your administrator password.
3. Go to Maintenance > Reset and check LaunchServices database.
4. Un-check any other pre-checked options.
5. Click the Execute button.
6. Restart the computer.

Keychain access problems after Safari 3.1 update?

I recently installed the Safari 3.1 update. Two other updates were available and I installed them at the same time. One was a security update - I don't recall the other (and, strangely, the update log is blank). After this update, I received the message that "Safari has been changed and moved, so you need to grant permission for access to the Keychain." I selected "allow all" and things seemed to progress.
The next time I started Safari, the same message. I again selected "allow all", but the program hung. I forced it to quit, tried again, same result. I ran the system maintenance programs, repaired permissions, etc. (using Cocktail) and got the same result. Keychain Access itself seems to hang and becomes unresponsive. Firefox appears to be unaffected, but I don't use it as much.
The problem seems to be with Safari 3.1 - has anyone else experienced this problem? If I uninstall Safari, download and install 3.1 over again, is there a way to save my bookmarks and cookies to reimport?

In installing the Safari Update (along with Quicktime 7.4.5, iTunes 7.6.2, and Security Update 2008-002 for Power PC), I found my Mac Mini slowed to a crawl and persistently displayed the "beach ball of death" for extended periods of time just starting up ANY program for the first time. Just restarting the computer took forever and trying to use Disk Utility did nothing.
I have talked with a friend whose son had all sorts of problems with his newer i-mac upon installation of this Safari update. I am crawling along with my machine right now, not one bit happy.
I have no answers, just a note to show I also am having problems since this update. Keychain? Never use it. I am thinking of just trying to re-install the older Safari version-3.04. Suggestions?

Junk mail function slow after 10.4.8 update

I upgraded to 10.4.8 yesterday. Since then, whenever I mark a message as junk or change the junk setting on a message that is in the junk folder, I go into major beach ball mode. Have anyone else experienced this?

Problems arising right after installing a system update are usually the result of not having installed the update properly, so let's first make sure that the update is properly installed.
Verify/repair your disk (not just permissions), as described here:
The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
After having fixed all filesystem issues, if any, reinstall the update using the Combo installer:
About the Mac OS X 10.4.8 Combo Update
Mac OS X 10.4.8 Combo Update for PPC
Mac OS X 10.4.8 Combo Update for Intel
You may also want to take a look at the following articles for guidelines on how to properly install system updates:
Troubleshooting installation and software updates
Installing software updates
Basically, you should verify/repair the startup disk before installing the update, and no applications should be running while installing it.

Cant adjust volume after safari 5.1 update!

just done the safari 5.1 update on my 2007 imac, all went well and it works great, ive noticed since doing this though that i cant adjust the volume of my imac! when i press the volume keys it just has a sign indicating the volume cant be adjusted!
the sound however is outputting, its just i cant change the volume.
anyone else had this issue?
many thanks,
Jamie

HI Jaime,
Open System Preferences/Sound. Click the Output tab.
Make sure the Mute button is not selected at the bottom of that pane.
Try Resetting the PRAM
If that didn't help, go to /Library/Preferences and move the com.apple.soundpref.plist file to the Trash.

Safari's Tabs Acting Strange After 10.6.4 Update

Hi guys,
After the 10.6.4 update Safari's tabs have been acting strangely. Say I have Apple.com open in one tab and I hit Apple-T to open a new tab. It then changes that tab (which Apple.com was loaded on) to the Top Sites, keeps the focus on this tab, then opens a blank tab right next to it. I effectively lose the page I was using and a blank one appears. Any ideas as to how to fix this?
Thanks for the help!

HI,
Go here for trouble shooting 3rd party plugins or input managers which might be causing the problem. Safari: Add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 7 buttons and click Reset. Relaunch Safari. If you still having problems...
Go to the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari/Preferences. Make note of all the preferences under each tab. Quit Safari. Now go to ~/Library/Preferences and move this file com.apple.safari.plist to the Desktop.
Relaunch Safari and see if that makes a difference. If not, move the .plist file back to the Preferences folder. If Safari functions as it should, move that .plist file to the Trash.
And if you didn't repair disk permissions after you updated Safari, it's a good idea to do that.
Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.

Menu Bar Items Missing after Safari 3.1 update

Installed Safari 3.1 and restarted; menu bar items Time, Date, and Volume icon are now missing, and Safari 3.1 and Mail crash on launch. Trashed com.apple.systemuiserver.plist and restarted--no difference.
Tried reinstalling the 10.4.11 PPC update and Safari 3.0.4 and Mail now work, but menu bar icons still missing. System Preferences for these items stick, but nothing appears in menu bar. This seems to be a recurring issue with Mac OS X, but Apple isn't helping people by telling them how to fix it, or changing their updates so it doesn't happen to begin with.
Ideas or suggestions to fix this are appreciated.

What are permissions?
Every file and folder on a Mac OS X hard drive has a set of permissions—settings that determine which user(s) have access to each item, and exactly what that access is. For example, permissions dictate whether or not a particular user can open and edit a particular file. But permissions also determine which items the operating system—or specific parts of it—can access and modify, and which files are accessible by applications.
What does repairing permissions do?
The Repair Disk Permissions function—the process that actually performs the task of repairing permissions—examines certain files and folders on your Mac’s hard drive to see if their current permissions settings are what Mac OS X expects them to be; if discrepancies are found, the offending permissions are changed to match the expected settings.
(In Mac OS X 10.3 and later, repairing permissions also performs one other, unrelated, task: If the invisible /tmp symbolic link—which is linked to the /private/tmp directory—is missing, the link will be recreated.)
Why is it necessary to repair permissions?
If permissions on particular files are “incorrect”—i.e., not what Mac OS X expects them to be or not what they need to be for your Mac’s normal operation—you can experience problems when the operating system tries to access or modify those files. For example, you may have trouble logging in to your account, printing, launching applications, or even starting up your Mac. Similarly, if an application—from Apple or a third-party developer—needs access to a particular file or folder to function, and the permissions on that item have changed in a way that prevents such access, the application may not function properly (or at all). The Repair Disk Permissions function can fix such problems by ensuring that certain files have the correct permissions.
There’s also a security element here: Many system-level files have permissions set a particular way so that applications or users that shouldn’t be meddling with those files can’t. If the permissions on certain system-level files somehow get changed so that access to those files is no longer restricted, you’ve got the potential for a major security issue. Repairing permissions can resolve such issues by resetting permissions on those files to prevent unauthorized access.
How do I repair permissions?
The Repair Disk Permissions function is part of Apple’s Disk Utility (in /Applications/Utilities). After launching Disk Utility, select the desired disk—generally your startup disk—in the list to the left, then click the First Aid tab. At the bottom of the First Aid panel, click the Repair Disk Permissions button. (You could instead use the Verify Disk Permissions option to preview any potential repairs before performing them, but for most users there’s little benefit from this extra step.)
Permissions can also be repaired via the shell (Terminal) by using the command sudo diskutil repairPermissions /. However, it’s unlikely that the typical user will ever need to perform the task in this manner. It’s useful if for some reason Disk Utility itself won’t launch, or for repairing permissions on a remote Mac when connected via Remote Login (SSH), but otherwise you’re just as well served using Disk Utility.
How does the Repair Disk Permissions function know what the “correct” permissions are?
When you use Apple’s Installer utility to install software (such as Mac OS X itself or an OS X update), the installation package (the .pkg file you double-click to begin installation, or that Software Update downloads in the background for an automatic installation) generally leaves behind a receipt—a smaller Mac OS X package that includes information about every file installed, including the permissions each file should have. This receipt is placed in /Library/Receipts. When you run the Repair Disk Permissions function, it examines the receipts in the /Library/Receipts directory of the disk being repaired—which means the feature works only on volumes with Mac OS X installed—and compares the information in the receipt with the actual files on your drive. If the Repair Disk Permissions function finds a file with permissions that differ from what a receipt claims they should be, that file’s permissions are reset to their receipt-specified values. (If you’re curious about the information contained in a receipt, the easiest way to view it is to use the utility Pacifist; simply drag and drop the appropriate receipt into the Pacifist window and you’ll be presented with a list of all files installed by the similarly-named installation package, along with each file’s original permissions.)
It’s worth noting here that although the function is called “Repair Disk Permissions,” what is actually happening is that files’ permissions are being reset or restored to a particular state. It’s possible—though not common—for a particular file’s permissions to differ from what a receipt claims they should be without those permissions actually being “broken.”
Are all files affected by Repair Disk Permissions?
No. As you may have inferred from the above description, only those files installed using OS X’s Installer utility and whose installation packages leave behind a proper receipt in /Library/Receipts are affected by the Repair Disk Permissions function. This means that most of the files affected by the Repair Disk Permissions function are system-level files, application files, or system add-ons—not applications installed by drag-and-drop, and not your documents or other user-level files.
If repairing permissions is useful in general, why doesn’t Apple recommend it as routine maintenance?
Apple does, quite explicitly:
It’s a good idea to repair disk permissions as a regular maintenance task after upgrading or installing new software.
That’s taken from Mac Help—in both Panther and Tiger—right on your Mac. Similar statements can be found in other Support articles, one of which is:

Palm Pre acting erratically after 1.4.5 Update

After I updated to 1.4.5 a few weeks ago, I lost my bookmarks first. Resetting the phone solved the problem however a few days later all of a sudden it started acting erratically as if someone else was using my phone remotely. (there would be signs on the screens as if someone was tapping on the screen and the browser would open along with other apps or e-mail and when I tried to throw the open screens throw away, they would hesitate and get stuck in the middle of the screen) Another reset seemed to have resolved the problem but yesterday the same problem came back while I was driving and when the navigation was on. The navigation froze and started pointing the sky!
Any suggestions how to fix this problem?
Thanks,
Burak
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

When you say "reset", do you mean you rebooted the phone? or did you use WebOS Doctor to reload the OS entirely?
If you haven't already done so, try shutting the phone down entirely and removing the battery. If that doesn't work for you, then try running WebOS Doctor. It's going to wipe everything. You should be able to get all your apps and contacts back when the phone asks you to log into your Palm Profile. I'm not 100% about whether you'll get your data back or not (pics, music, docs, ect.) so be sure to get your important files off the phone first.
Make sure that you have your Pre's backup feature enabled (it should be by default, but check anyway), otherwise your Palm profile will have nothing to restore.

Mail Not Working After 10.9.4 Update

Is anyone else having mail issues after the 10.9.4 update this week?
Neither my iCloud or Cox email account is able to send or receive email after this update. The small exclamation mark appears to the right of each account, both for incoming and sent email...as well as the Junk email. The error says something about not being able to connect to Port 993.
I tried disabling SSL in both accounts (which automatically changes Mail to a different port) but saw no change.
I know email works on both of these accounts as I'm able to access them on my iDevices, so it has to be something specific to my iMac.
Any suggestions?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Powerbook fails to startup after Safari, Java, QT Updates

I have a 15" Powerbook G4 with OS X.4.2 and just ran software update, while connected to the power supply - it is not running on battery power. After installing the QuickTime, Java, and Safari updates (it has been away from a network for a while) I got the click Restart screen. After clicking Restart the computer shutdown. I hit the power button, heard the hard drive spin up for a few seconds, then a little squeak, silence, then nothing. I tried to power up with option-command-p-r thinking maybe I could reset the PRAM. Same result. I powered on and inserted my OS X.4 DVD (mistake here) and held down the C key. No change, but now the DVD is stuck in the Superdrive. I then tried the ctrl-command-power button until I heard the long tone, released the keys, then nothing. I've also tried removing and swapping the RAM. I should also mention that I get no power light on the front of the powerbook. If I hold down the power button for five seconds I get the long tone and rapidly flashing power light, then the HD stops and silence. I'm guessing the machine is dead. Everything I have read in my Apple Service Technician course manuals says that this is a sign of logic board failure. (At least I have AppleCare).
Anyone have any ideas? I also installed the updates on a G5 and now it has been freezing up at various points and the only way to fix is hold the power-button for 5 seconds and then force a shutdown and restart.
Any help is appreciated, as I found nothing like this on the Apple discussions or tech info. All those issues report at least making it to a gray screen, mine stays black the whole time.

hello, I'm having the same problem w/ my PB, i did an update too isight, which i dont use, but just to keep the automatic update in silence! lol, well I'm waiting for some help too, but if u have a CD stock inside try this, press F12 (eject) right after pressing the power button, i hope this give u a little help
