Not a matter of national security but...

Hello,
I am less tech savvy than your grandmother or a 2 year old….so although I have searched this site to see if there were previous answers…some appear to be the same question, but I don’t understand the answers.
I take NOTES on my I phone, and just recently discovered that when I log in to my Yahoo email account on my lap top, the NOTEs, are over in the left hand side, with folders and such.
Today, not sure of myself, I had my I phone in hand, and my yahoo mail up. One by one I made sure that anything that was on my phone was in my email. As I made sure, I deleted them from my phone…..
Only to discover now ~ I did that a few hours ago ~ apparently that deleted them from my email.
I really would like them back. I don’t understand the cloud and the backing up and the ‘sync-ing’…Can someone please help me? It’s not a matter of national security…but they are important to me….
Now I am wondering if I can go in to my Recycle Bin on my lap top and see if they are there…but hopefully somebody can help me before I go and make any more messes. Thank you

I don't know any other way to get them back other than maybe, as you suggested, the trash on your Yahoo account. If you have a back up of the phone that contains the notes, you could always restore your phone from that back up. However, that would delete everything on the phone that you've created or added since the back up was made.

It would probably be better to continue your previous thread on the same question than to start a new one.

Q&As stating for "improved security" but will not display

I'm getting a prompt for three new security Q&As stating for "improved security" but tapping the question choices menus returns a blank white screen and spinning processor. Can anyone help on this? Is it something new in security, Jan. 2013? (Gen 4 iPad)

Hi Sorry.. more problems
So your suggestion worked (I assumed) ..it showed the main folders.. but when I click on a folder all the other folders inside that are not displaying... does that make sense?
And it just ejected itself? Any idea what the issue is or how to fix it please!?
Thank you

Firefox does not trust a particular secure website that I know is secure but it does trust other secure websites

Firefox does not trust a specific secure website that I know is secure, but it does trust other secure websites. Also, Internet Explorer trusts this website and Firefox on another computer trusts this same website. When I try to connect Firefox tells me that it does not have a valid certificate (even though I know one exists) and that I would have to make an exception to connect. Is there some way I can correct this and get the proper certificate into this particular Firefox program?

Can you post a link to that website?
It is possible that the server doesn't send a required intermediate certificate.
Firefox stores intermediate certificates that servers send for future use, so if you have visited a website that has send such a certificate then you won't see an error if you visit a server that doesn't send that intermediate certificate.
You can inspect the certificate chain via a site like this:
*http://www.networking4all.com/en/support/tools/site+check/
You can retrieve the certificate and check details like who issued certificates and expiration dates of certificates.
*Click the link at the bottom of the error page: "I Understand the Risks"
Let Firefox retrieve the certificate: "Add Exception" -> "Get Certificate".
*Click the "View..." button and inspect the certificate and check who is the issuer.
You can see more Details like intermediate certificates that are used in the Details pane.

As with previous posts this is usually a DHCP issue and occurs frequently especially with routers connected to Cable Modems or those Micro-Cell towers.
Unplug all Routers, AirPorts (or other off brand Wi-Fi broadcast units) and any other Wireless broadcast unit that might provide you with a WDS (often other AirPorts feeding off the signal of the AirPort closest to Cable/DSL Modem) and best to totally power down the Unit affected; lastly either hold a reset button on Cable/DSL modem for 30-45 seconds or actually power it down if an option (not suppose to power down Cable Modems that have Telephony for some odd never completely explained to me reason).
Let Cable/DSL Modem re-boot till 'all green lights'. Then power up each device involved in order from closest to farthest waiting each time for completion of initiation. Micro-cell towers can take 10 minutes to completely re-boot and you must wait for across the board green lights in my experience. Even WDS can add a few minutes till all green on mother AirPort unit.
Only NOW may you re-start the offending device and see if it will connect. Works about 99% of the time!

Hi Anhmt,
You can set this up from My Apple ID > click on Manage my Apple ID or try to purchase from a computer or device that was not used to purchase with your Apple ID before so that you will be prompted to create your security question.

I install 2 new batteries on 2 different Magic Mice, close the battery compartment securely but the indicator light does not even turn on.

I install 2 new batteries on 2 different Magic Mice, close the battery compartment securely but the indicator light does not even turn on.

If these are older mice, the battery compartment may be soiled by leakage from the previous batteries.
Remove the new batteries, thoroughly clean the terminal points inside the compartment, wipe over the new batteries, reinsert ... and try again. Note. Use only good quality batteries, Eneloop, Energiser, Apple or Duracell. Other batteries, particularly unbranded ones may be slightly too small in length.

If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then the steps half-way down this page should let you reset them : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use

Firefox Error with Roaming Profiles "Could not initialize the application's security component"

Hi there
I get the common error "Could not initialize the application's security component" when I startup Firefox.
I tried this manual: http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/couldnt-initialize-applications-security-component
I have enough space left, i have read/edit/write-rights, created a new firefox profile and also reset all the settings, nothing works.
BUT I dont have a cert8.db File in my %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
What can I do?
Like I said in my description, its about Users that are logged in with a Roaming-Profile. Every User has this problems, it doesn't matter if or without Admin-Rights.
Also this problem exists since Firefox 4.0.0, the last working Version was 3.6.13 I guess.

You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
Try to remove or rename secmod.db (secmod.db.old) in the Firefox profile folder.
If that didn't help then also rename the cert8.db file to cert8.db.old or delete the cert8.db file to remove intermediate certificates that Firefox has stored.
If that helped to solve the problem then you can remove the renamed cert8.db.old file.<br />
Otherwise you can rename (or copy) the cert8.db.old file to cert8.db to restore the previous intermediate certificates.<br />
Firefox will automatically store intermediate certificates when you visit websites that send such a certificate.
Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
*Firefox 25: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
*(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.

Safari not allowing access to a secure link w/in a secure website

I've been banking on-line with a distant U.S. bank for several years using Safari and I've had no problem. Just recently, the bank upgraded their on-line security. To regain access I had to contact them and be reissued a new password. I did that and have successfully accessed my account many times. Once into my acct., there are several links to the left of the Acct. Info. page ... perhaps 6 or 7. I'm able to access each link except the link for Bill Payment. I've spent hours on the phone with the bank over the last two days but nothing changes. I had always used Safari with no problem but their browser of choice is Firefox so I changed to that. Still I'm unable to access that one link ... a most important link since the bank is 2000 miles away! The bank support techs said today the problem is with me not them. They have a known bug with Safari but nothing with Firefox. I have also tried Netscape and Camino. All are the same; I get in to all but that one link within the site.
What happens is, I log on... go to my Acct Info, select any link but the Bill Payment and I'm connected. When I select Bill Payment, the browser address bar says that's where I am (Bill Payment) but the page I'm taken to is the Homepage where I log in. I thought for a long time that each time that happened I was being logged out but I'm not. On that Home page is a link asking if I want to return to Online Banking, when I click on that, it returns me to my Acct. Info page. I'm still logged in. The changes on my end since accessing it in the old Safari way are that I've upgraded to Leopard and increased my DSL speed a bit. My ISP has checked the cache server ... that's not a problem.
Earlier today, they told me: You will need to make the website the bank name and checkfree trusted sites. Later, they gave me an https:// address and told me to try adding that link to the trusted site list.
What does that mean? How do I add to the trusted site list in either Safari (my preference) or Firefox? Is it through Keychain Access? I've looked and don't see a cookie for this site nor a certificate. I have viewed their certificate info only via the address bar on Firefox.
I'm puzzled by why the problem would be with me when I can access links within their secure site ... all links except the one. It's not as if I can't get in at all. In their previous system, the bank had two cumbersome levels of security. We logged in, were taken to our acct. info, etc., but when we wanted to access on-line Bill Payment, that link would take us to another page with yet another log in ID and yet another password! That's what this feels like. It seems like it's taking me back to that log in window because it's expecting another login. I'm still not convinced the problem isn't theirs but if there is something I can do re: adding trusted sites to my browser, I'm willing to try.
Can anyeone please help me with this? Thanks.

It was not a problem with Safari. It was my not having their second level security url in my Preferences. Once they gave it to me, I set it in my 'always allow' cookies settings. That allowed me access to all secure sites.
I'm still having to use Firefox until they resolve their known issue with Safari.
The software tech I worked with is not a Mac person so he had to consult with his Mac software developer to get the issue resolved. I told him there are a lot of us (Mac users) out here and they're going to have to include us in their plans. There are also PC folks out there with an iPhone using Safari.

I suddenly encounter this error message from Fire Fox.
Could not initialize the application's security component. The most likely cause is problems with files in your application's profile directory. Please check that this directory has no read/write restrictions and your hard disk is not full or close to full. It is recommended that you exit the application and fix the problem. If you continue to use this session, you might see incorrect application behaviour when accessing security features.
I uninstalled the browser and download a new version but it does not resolve the issue.
I know my hard disc has ample space. I do NOT know where to find the Profile directory to fix the read restriction box.

HP Deskjet 3055A does not connect to WIFI with security

I am trying to configure a Deskjet 3055A on my DD-WRT router. I am a highly skilled networking engineer so I know 100% what I am doing.
Firstly, DD-WRT does not support WPS conenction, because these are highly insecure. This means my only method of connecting the pritner to my home network is to connect it to my PC and use the installation utility (dowloaded from your drivers page) I am using version 28.8.
My router supports both 2.4 and 5GHz and I know the printer is only 2.4GHz. I completely disabled the 5GHz network for the purpose of connecting the printer even though it should not have any effect.
I have also rebooted my router, and reset the printers wireless network using its in-built control panel.
Anyway, after a shameful 2 hours troubleshooting, I managed to find out that the printer WILL NOT CONNECT to the WIFI network if any security is applied against it. It works 100% fine with open security however, this is completely unnacceptable.
I have tried both WPA Personal and also WPA2 Personal, both with the same effect.
For the sake of trying, I also added the printer to my open WIFI network and tried to manually edit the WIFI setting through the printers web interface however, whenever I try and access the Wireless setup wizard, I simply get an error saying "Internal System Error" - eventually I managed to get around this other bug that has been there for years (see http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printer-Networking-and-Wireless/Internal-System-Error-prevents-access-t...
After going through the printers web interface WIFI setup, the issue is still the same and it will not connect.
HP, we were about to order 2500 of these printers for our remote site users. If you do not come up with a quick solution/bug fix, consider the business lost!
Regards
Ian
This question was solved.
View Solution.

After much playing I managed to find a fix for this!
For all users who are unable to find a fix using the other methods, here's what to do.
Change your local network to open security but note down your WIFI setting for your typical setup.
Connect the printer to the open network using the HP software (using a USB cable)
Go to the printer's URL, but ensure you connect using HTTPS - if you get an internal system error, keep refreshing until it works (WHAT A JOKE!!!!)
Click on "Network" on the top, then click on "Advanced" on the left.
Enter the network settings as they should be when secured.
At the bottom, tick "In an infrastructure network, use 802.11b/g behaviour(assuming your netwoek supports g, otherwise use the b only option), then click apply.
Turn your wireless security back on, on your router and then the printer should connect!
I really am baffled as to why this isn't automatically enabled, if the printer doesn't work with wireless security on a Wireless N network, then have this as the default!
HP - feel free to thank me in this post!

New WIN7 System, FFox gives error "Could not initialize the application's security component. The most likely cause is problems with files in your application's profile directory" - will not go to any site.

New Windows 7 computer. After installing Firefox, every time I bring it up I get the following message:
"Could not initialize the application's security component. The most likely cause is problems with files in your application's profile directory. Please check that this directory has no read/write restrictions and your hard disk is not full or close to full. It is recommended that you exit the application and fix the problem. If you continue to use this session, you might see incorrect application behaviour when accessing security features."
Then Firefox comes up, but will not function at all - can enter url address, but will not respond to ANY clicks, so can not go to any site.
