MobileMe sign in problem

Hi,
I signed up for a mobileMe trial today.
On my MacBook, everything works flawlessly, but on my Mini, that's not the case.
It first place System prefs did not offer the mobileMe update, so after installing it manually & taking the software update to mobileMe 1.1, i can't sign it, getting the "unknown validation error"
Many folks describe this error as the service being down, but i can sign in as often as i want on my MacBook, so that can't be the case.
Any clues ?
Cheers,
Bob

Ok so the fix I found was to quit Mail then remove the *Mail folder* (user folder - library - Mail) then relaunch Mail and setup the account from scratch. Doing so resulted in it completing the process as expected and with no issues once setup. If you have saved messages in the old folder that you want to keep, you can always import the messages back into the new folder Mail will create. if not, simply trash the original folder. Apparently the issue lies with corrupted files in this folder.

  • Adobe AIR 3 Performance Issues and Code Signing Certificate Problem

    I recently updated to Adobe AIR 3.0 SDK (and runtime) doing HTML/Javascript development using Dreamweaver CS5.5 in a Windows 7 Home Premium (64 bit).
    The AIR app I'm developing runs well from within Dreamweaver. But when I create/package the AIR app and install it on my machine:
    1. The app literally CRAWLS running it in my Windows 7 12G RAM machine (especially when I use the mouse to mouse over a 19-by-21 set of hyperlinks on a grid) --- IT IS THAT SLOOOOWWWW...
    2. The app runs fine in my Mac OS X 10.6.8 with 4G RAM, also using the Adobe AIR 3 runtime.
    About the Code Signing Certificate problem:
    When I try to package the AIR app with ADT using AIR's temporary certificate feature, I get the error message "Could not generate timestamp: handshake alert: unrecognized_name".
    I found some discussions on this problem in an Adobe AIR Google Groups forum, but no one has yet offered any resolution to the issue. Someone said Adobe is using the Geotrust timestamping service --- located at https://timestamp.geotrust.com/tsa --- but going to this page produces a "404 --- Page not found" error.
    The Google Groups Adobe AIR page is here:

    Any ideas about these issues?

  • IPhoto - MobileMe gallery subscription - problem with password-protected

    I am having a peculiar problem with subscribed galleries from MobileMe in iPhoto 08 and iPhoto 09. For galleries that have password-protection enabled, the full URL of the gallery subscription feed is pulled through as the Subscription title instead of the gallery title.
    For example "http://gallery.e.com/ACCOUNT-NAME/XXXXXX/?webdav-method-truthget&depth=infinit y&feedfmt=atom....
    This doesn't occur for public MobileMe galleries. The title of the gallery comes across and the URL of the subscription is hidden.
    Anyone having similar problems? Local Genius Bar couldn't help and assumed it was just a bug, but it doesn't seem to be typical of Apple.
    As an aside, it would also be nice to have these feed subscriptions behave similarly to the way RSS subscriptions work in Mail, with the ability to select how often the feed is queried and indicate the number of new items. This would alert users of changes to feeds.
    Joe

    Upon further research, it appears that this problem occurs when publishing from either iPhoto or Aperture to MobileMe. The problem seems to be when a gallery is published and one chooses not to have the gallery appear on the main gallery page (hidden). It seems to have nothing to do with whether or not one protects the gallery with a password.
    So, Apple, if you are listening, can you provide any information on how to have the title of the gallery come through when subscribing using iPhoto while at the same time not listing the gallery on the main MobileMe gallery page? This seems to be a fixable bug.

  • How do I change my MobileMe sign in page to iCloud sign in on my iPad

    How do I change my MobileMe sign in page to iCloud sign in on my iPad

    You access your iCloud data through the apps on your iPad, such as contacts, calendars, your photo stream album in Photos, your iWork documents in the iWork apps, etc.  You can also access some of your synced data by going to icloud.com on your computer.  As posted, unlike MobileMe, there is no separate app like iDisk that allows access to your data in iCloud.

  • Folio sign-in problems

    As suggested in another thread (http://forums.adobe.com/message/5122457#5122457) I'm posting my specific case here.
    I was not able to sign into DPS via the folio builder within InDesign. It just failed silently. After speaking to our network admins, I managed to get my PC enabled to bypass our corporate firewall temporarily, then disabled my proxy settings with Internet Explorer, and was then able to login without any issue.  After I was blocked through the firewall, I can no longer log in (as expected).
    I'm on Windows, and our internal proxy authenticates via Active Directory.
    It is not a workable solution to have any users that want to produce folios having full direct access through the firewall, so the two options I see to make this work are:
    1. Get folio producer working through an authenticating proxy
    2. Allow through our firewall all of the possible Adobe servers (sort of defeats the purpose of a firewall, especially considering the number of servers that would be required)
    I'll be happily corrected if there is anoter solution out there..

  • MobileMe Gallery and problems with new password

    Hi. I'm using iPhoto 09, and have posted many MobileMe galleries over the years. Recently, I changed my MobileMe password. Now, iPhoto tells me that an "error occurred with the publication of album 'XYZ' Your MobileMe account information is not correct. The provided login or password is not valid" and it prompts me to return to MobileMe Preferences to re-enter my correct login and password. Well, the trouble is that I've done this many times. (Which also causes sync problems - but that's another story.) And though my System Preferences are now correct, I still cannot successfully update a MobileMe gallery in iPhoto. I checked my settings in the Keychain, and all is fine. I also trashed iPhoto preferences, but the problem still remains. Any thoughts on how to solve this irritating problem? Thanks!

    I found another solution based on this posting.
    http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=689762
    Works perfectly.
    +I have the same problem and started a thread about it on Apple's discussion board, see http://discussions.apple.com/thread....art=0&tstart=0+
    +First, I'd suggest sending Apple feedback on it (select "Provide iPhoto Feedback" from the iPhoto menu).+
    +When you change your MM password, you need to enter the new password in MobileMe in System Preferences. When you select MobileMe in System Preferences, it will (correctly) say that your password has changed and ask for the new one.+
    +It looks like the problem with iPhoto is that when you enter the new password in MobileMe preferences, the keychain entry for it isn't being updated. Look for publish.me.com in Keychain Access. It will probably have the old password. Changing it there and then signing out/in in MM System Preferences seems to fix the problem with iPhoto. If not, try deleting publish.me.com in Keychain Access and then sign out/in to MobileMe in System Preferences.+
    +Give it a try and post what happens.+

  • Sign in problems on my mac!

    Hi there!
    Really hope someone can help me.
    My mac won't allow me to sign in. When I enter my password and submit it just "thinks" for a time, a quick blue screen appears, then it turns white and just return to the sign in screen and nothing happens.
    The same issue with the guest user. What can be the cause of this?
    When I start the Mac in safe mode it allows me to sign in, so is there something I can fix?
    I really hope I don't need to recover my MacBook Pro, because my back-up from TimeCapsule is pretty old and I can't make a new one in Safe Mode :S

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac.
    These steps are to be taken while booted in safe mode.
    Below are instructions to enter some UNIX shell commands. The commands are harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects.
    The commands may line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then either copy or drag it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands.
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign.
    Step 1
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it. Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). Then click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V).
    find /Sy*/L*/Ex* -type f -name Info.plist -exec sh -c '/usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c "Print :CFBundleIdentifier" "$1" 2> /dev/null | egrep -qv "apple|Accusys|ArcMSR|ATTO|CalDigit|HighPoint|hp-fax|JMicron|print|SoftRAID|stex" && echo ${1%*.kext/*}.kext' {} {} \;
    Post the lines of output (if any) that appear below what you just entered (the text, please, not a screenshot.) You can omit the final line ending in “$”.
    Step 2
    Repeat with this line:
    ls -1A /e*/mach* {,/}L*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts 2> /dev/null
    Important: If you formerly synchronized with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, anonymize it before posting.
    Step 3
    osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of every login item' 2> /dev/null
    Remember, these steps are all copy-and-paste — no typing. Also remember to post the output.
    You can then quit Terminal.

  • Triangle sign (font problem)

    I finally found some more time to customize my computer. I got some inspiration from this thread: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=162510 and decided to start from changing my command prompt. And here's my first problem.
    I wanted it to look like on a screenshot attached to this post: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 9#p1267139. I just love those colorful arrows. So I installed powerline-fonts and otf-inconsolata-powerline-git from AUR. But on my machine those arrows doesn't look so cool. No matter which font I try, they're always too big and too small, like here on the screenshot:
    http://oi42.tinypic.com/5jve5u.jpg
    I use terminator and my PS1 value is:
    "\$(if [[ \$? == 0 ]]; then echo \"\e[42m✔ \# \! \e[32;44m$(echo -e '\u2B80')\"; else echo \"\e[41m✘ \# \! \e[31;44m$(echo -e '\u2B80')\"; fi)\e[;44m \u@\h \e[34;43m$(echo -e '\u2B80')\e[;43m \W \e[;33m$(echo -e '\u2B80') \e[m"
    Also, I'd like to give ttf-agave, which is a non-powerline font, a try, so I need some symbols font containing a triangle sign similar to powerline's U+2B80 but of the exactly same height as font's background.

    Close all running applications. From an administrator account, open the Terminal app and enter the following command. You can also copy/paste it from here into the Terminal window:
    sudo atsutil databases -remove
    Terminal will then ask for your admin password. As you type, it will not show anything, so be sure to enter it correctly.
    This removes all font cache files. Both for the system and the current user font cache files. After running the command, close Terminal and immediately restart your Mac.

  • How do I fix sign in problem with my Yahoo hompage via Firefox browser

    The normal browser process, of course, is that when you click on the Firefox icon it opens the browser and automatically signs you in to your preselected home page. Unfortunately I have recently run into a problem with error messages popping up and obstructing this opening process.
    Special comment: It started occurring at about the same time my Yahoo mail account was breached and spammed and I had to change my password as a beginning move to counter the account security breach. I am not certain this incident produced my current problem, but it quite possibly related to the cause. It still remains that have to clear the problem, whatever caused it.
    These error pop up messages do not occur when I use the Internet Explorer or Chrome browsers, so it certainly appears to be a Firefox browser related issue. I have tried clearing all cookies, enabling and disabling all Java plug-ins and extensions, changing passwords, and nothing has had any effect.
    The first pop up window is headlined as, "[JavaScript Application]. It then cites my correct Yahoo username and is followed by this text; "(my username)- Invalid username/password combination. If you continue to get this error, try entering your email address as your username".
    Note: Entering my email address as a username did not help either. The username cited in the error
    message is the correct username as well.
    The second pop up window says,
    "We noticed you may have signed in or signed out in another window. Click OK to reload your page".
    Note: Clicking the "OK" button does not re-sign in the page. What does happen is that it reloads the generic MY Yahoo home page and then I have to manually sign in to get my personally customized My Yahoo home page.
    I have since upgraded to the most current Firefox browser version, but the problem remains the same.
    If anyone has any idea on how to remedy this sign-in issue I would appreciate hearing from you.
    Thank you

    If you had Firefox save your Yahoo password, first try deleting that here:
    orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Options > Security > "Saved Passwords"
    The "signed out" message seems to be related to how Yahoo authenticates you. Some users have reported that disabling automatic proxy detection solves the problem, and it also resolves an issue of getting logged out every few minutes, if you have ever experienced that.
    To make the change:
    orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Options > Advanced
    On the "Network" mini-tab, click the "Settings" button, then choose "No Proxy" and OK your way back out.
    If your work connection requires you to use a proxy server, try the "Use system settings" option instead.
    Does that help?
