No Security Lock

After my recent software upgrade on my Mac Book Pro, there isn't any security lock in the right hand corner when I go somewhere and try to pay. It is on multiple sites and haven't had the problem on my I pad. Has anyone else had this problem?

A new version of Safari was introduced, and it may not have the lock Icon or it may be in a different place. The lack of that Icon should not be a problem as long as the address line says :
https://
That says you are using secure communications, and the exchange between you and that site is encrypted both ways.

IOS 8.1 installed yesterday has spoilt my iPad 2! There are no keyboard, message or app sounds, performance is now sluggish, juddery and strange, battery is draining fast and it no longer security locks when put to sleep.

I am so cross because iOS 8.1 installed yesterday has ruined my iPad 2! There are now no keyboard, message or app sounds, performance is slow, juddery and strange, the battery is draining fast and the iPad no longer security locks when put to sleep. I have checked all the settings, done a number of resets and really wish I hadn't bothered and stayed with iOS 7 when it all worked like a dream. I thought that by waiting until 8.1, teething problems would have been fixed and I am just horrified that there is no going back! I am not the only iPad owner that has this set of problems so why didn't you warn us Apple! What are you going to do to help us? I do not want to be forced into buying a newer version of iPad because you broke this one!

In spite of the fact that you said you checked the settings, I still believe that you have system sounds muted.
System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the control center if you are running iOS 7. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to get to control center . Tap on the bell icon and system sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock can be accessed in the same manner as described above.
This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

AS for your other issues, have you done any other troubleshooting like resetting your iPad, resetting all settings or doing a complete factory reset?

Is there a way I can permanently disable the security lock thing in System Preferences?

Aside from logging and using the root account on a daily basis, is there a way to permanently be rid of the security lock thing in System Preferences?
Yosemite has a bug (?) where if an Admin account has its password set to blank (empty), you can't remove the security lock...
You can click it, it'll ask for Username and Password (Why?), and when you click on 'Unlock', it unlocks for a brief moment and instantly locks itself again...
This is beyond infuriating. Do advise.

Thanks for taking the time to reply. However I'm quite aware that the sleep/wake button disables the screen. Unfortunately, mea maxima culpa, I sometimes accidentally hit shuttle before I've pressed the sleep/wake button, often when I am trying to do more than one thing at once. Sometimes I accidentally hit shuffle at other times too,eg when waking up the phone.
This is especially exasperating when listening to classical pieces with multiple movements. I will look for an alternative music player for the iphone, as I don't think the default music application and I are a good match.
Thanks again,
Tim Blackwell

I was on a website I know is secured, but I could not find the security lock located at the bottom right of the screen. Where is it located now?

The small security lock use to be located at the bottom right of the screen. It is not there now when I go to secured sites. Where is it now?

The padlock has been replaced by the site identity button, for details on using it see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Site+Identity+Button

Pdf files not opening properly since updating to 1.7.1.418 only happens with security locked files

I've saved a file in pdf format from Illustrator with a security lock & now it wont open in Photoshop. I've only had this issue since updating to version 1.7.1.418

Wouldn't it be a good idea to completely invalidate the applet cache in the JRE installer?Yes, I guess it should be an option for user of the app on first start after upgrade, not for the JRE installer. There are many large applications that users would want to avoid re-download.
From the log, there is some hidden exception during first launch. The best way to proceed is to file a bug, including some guest/debugging access to the game.

New MacMini and security lock

Looking at the new MacMini, I was pretty excited to see that it now has HDMI. However, I can not see any hole for a security lock. Did Apple forget that or is it hidden somewhere ? I am looking to buy this for usage in a public room and with that size, a security lock is quite imperative.
Thank you if you can answer this.

When I prepared to upgrade the RAM in my new Mini, the first thought that came to mind was "where's the Kensington security slot?" I proceeded to search every square inch of the computer for some kind of security measure and was stunned when I found nothing.
This, in combination with the increased starting price, is definitely not helpful with encouraging more Macs in kiosk situations. That said, less than $75 to secure the computer (presuming that's what the security device ends up selling for) isn't enough to be a deal breaker.
Despite the likeliness of a third-party solution, Apple should not have left off this important security feature. Even though the slot would not protect against RAM removal, it is still essential to preventing the loss of property.

Since I upgraded Firefox the gold security lock symbol that shows up for internet banking, etc. has disappeared. How do I get it back. I'm nervous not seeing it there.

the bank site does have "https//:" on it, but no security lock shows in the lower right hand corner. It always was there before.

The Padlock is no longer part of Firefox; it was removed beginning in Firefox 4. The padlock shows that there is a secure connection but does not supply additional information. You could have made a typographical error and still have been connected to a secure connection. The padlock was replaced in Firefox 3 with the Site Identity Button. Familiarize yourself with the Site Identity Button at the left end of the Location Bar:

Can you use an app without needing to unlock security lock?

My son has an iPhone 4 and I set up a password on it, so he doesn't use it for inappropriate usage. But, when he is home alone I sometimes have to call to check on him. He clearly receives the call, but cannot answer it because I had set up the security lock. Can someone please find a solution to this? Especially Apple? I would love to find out that Apple makes an update for this! The only thing you can do without unlocking the phone is the Camera.

It is not necessary to type your passcode when answering an incoming call. The "slide to unlock" button will instead display "slide to answer" while the iPhone is ringing. The call is answered immediately after sliding the button.
Are you sure that it is asking for the passcode?

Is there a Security Lock Cable available for iPad?

The Kensington security cable used for Apple laptops connects through a specific port. Does that Kensington cable also work for iPad? If not, is there a security cable for iPad?

YES! I found this iPad Security Case for a design client of mine who was concerned about theirs getting stolen.
Tryten Technologies shows them here: http://www.tryten.com/Apple-Mac-Security-Locks/iPad-Security-Case
You buy the iPad Security Case and you just need a standard "Kensington-style" security slot lock (which they sell online) and it's now secure.
It's totally worth it compared to losing your iPad. Went online yesterday and pre-ordered 5 online because they are taking pre-orders right now.
I hope I was of help.

Where is the picture of the "security lock" that used to be in my lower right corner??

There used to be a picture of a "security lock" in my lower right corner, either on my start bar or immediately above it, to show you were safe to enter your credit card info. before shopping websites. I haven't seen the picture of a "security lock" since I upgraded to Firefox 4. ?????

Was replaced in Firefox 3 the the '''Site Identity Button''' enveloping the favicon on the Location Bar, see

The padlock on the former Status Bar indicated a secure connection (https:)

Anybody use Kensington security lock on their iBook G4?

Don't know if this is the proper forum , but it was close as I could get.
Just bought the Kensington 64343, supposed to be one of the best security locks for portables. I have a 2005 iBook G4.
The top of the "t" goes in the slot but it can't rotate, in either direction. I've tried putting some (not a lot) pressure hoping the rubber bumper might depress a little so that the "t" could clear the case thickness, but to no avail. I've tried slightly tipping the barrel of the lock in case it wasn't "dead on" perpendicular, but no luck.
I'd be interested if anyone has tried this iBook with this lock and had success or failure.
Thank you.
Rich

I use them on some LaCie external HDs, they fit with a loose, rather insecure feeling,
and tried on my Intel iMac: feeling so tight, rotation occurs only thanks to the white iMac being plastic not aluminium.
Indeed a very poor quality for the price.
To think they still are better than the LaCie ones is even more disappointing...

Security lock out question

I have gone to update my apps, and am locked out because I forgot my password to many times. So I have reset my password and I.d but still the security is locked me out. I can not get into iTunes Store or download anything, or update anything because of this security lock out. What can I do?

Contact iTunes store support.

I am on Holliday and started an iOS upgrade to my iPAD 2, yesterday. The security lock have never been enabled. After the upgrade via WiFi in the hotel, the iPAD asks for a 4 digit kode to access my iPAD! ?????? APPLE, what programming subroutine is forgotten during functional testing prior to release of the latest iOS upgrade???? - Now from a borrowed hotel guest computer I post my ”HELP NEEDED”. Please advice if there is a way to skip a security kode I never enabled (nor even tried out and diabled) – WITHOUT spending time to find a Apple store helpdesk that restore via iTunes, and delete all my local data.

During the setup of iOS 7 which you went through after installation it asked if you wished to create a passcode. It is possible to skip setting up a passcode at this step but you must have created one.
If you can't remember the passcode and you have enabled "find my iPad" you can use http://www.icloud.com/ to remote erase your iPad, then you can set it up again, and restore it from an iCloud backup.

I probably misclicked when I activated the security lock on the iPhone and now I can not figure out what password I entered. Moreover, I have patches and funky looking phone so I can not restore iphine pres itunes. Please advice.

Your only recourse is to force it into DFU mode:
Turn your phone off and connect your cable to the computer, but not the device just yet. Start up iTunes. Now, hold down the home button on your phone and plug it in to the cable - don't let go of the button until iTunes tells you it's detected a phone in recovery mode. Now you can restore to factory settings.

Security lock apps

Is there a way to have an app locked with a security code? For example, if I wanted to lock my Facebook app on my iPad with a security code, how would I enable this? Is there a way to select certain apps to have a security lock code without having to lock the home screen upon "waking" up?
Can anyone recommend a reliable app that can store my username and passwords with a security lock code on it?

I still don't get why no one has made an app like this. Every parent will want this, so their child cannot access apps which are not for them.
Either allow individual apps to be locked, groups of apps to be locked, or if someone from apple actually reads this, I think they should make a new version that allows you to create identities just like in a PC, where you can create multiple identities with their own password, so everyone can get in the ipad and have only the apps they need/are allowed to use.
