Prompts for Security ?'s on Same Authorized PC
I do actually know my answers to the much discussed "Security Questions". What I don't understand is why I have to answer them every time I visit the iTunes Store on the same authorized computer. After log-in, I get the message that I "have not previously purchased..using this computer", when I just bought something 15 minutes earlier. Then I get emails telling me I bought something using my computer. I do have a router and dynamic IP but that has never been an issue before.
I don't mind answering the questions but they worry me more than assure me because it makes me think something somewhere has come undone. Is everyone getting these prompts repeatedly or is there something wrong with my account?
Thanks,
Jacki
Hello all,
New to the board and am shopping for a gift for my
wife. I have a 1st generation shuffle and it is
connected to our(now) laptop, and loaded into itunes.
If I get her a second generation shuffle, am I going
to run into problems with overwriting current itunes,
when we sync her ipod up to the same PC as my 1st
generation? Am I making sense???
Any help is appreciated!!
Should work fine...

Email Message contains "select" & "from" word, system will prompt for security right
Hi All,
Is there anyone ever encounter that if the email message is having a "select" & "from" wording, system will prompt for User ID and password?
I had filled up my CRM User ID & Password, and system will still fail to proceed to send the email. Instead, it is showing "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage" page.
Please help...
Regards,
Desmond ChanHi Abhishek,
Thanks again. That's what we suspect. As mentioned, we only have this issue if the email body is having "select...from" wording,
which it looks like SQL statement.
Few days ago we had some changes in out network (MPLS). Now seems the cause maybe from that, as there is no other changes made recently. -
Keep being prompted for security questions?
On any device (Ipad, Iphone 4S, Windows desktop), when purchasing any item (Ibook, Itunes, app store), I keep getting asked for username and to supply 3 security questions. I provide questions/answers, but can never get past that screen. A large black box appears and nothing is ever purchased or charged. If I close out and return later, I'm asked to re-select 3 security questions/answers. I re-enter same questions/answers, etc., etc. This has been going on several weeks.
I have submitted this online through Apple express line twice, but never received any reply back after many days. I called Apple, but they said it would need to be addressed by Itunes. I've Online Itunes customer support has never responded. changed credit card information. I've gone online to try to submit questions/answers, but was asked a different single question under My Account. All very frustrating!
I have to assume it's an account problem since affects all device and all products. But I can't find anyone anywhere to help resolve.
Any suggestions for fixing? Or for a contact for resolving such issues (the "I'd really like to spend money on Apple products but your software won't let me" problem)?
Thanks.I am copy and pasting my response to another thread - let me know if this is helpful to you or if you aren't using a Mac.
Cancel / close any Adobe products.
On Mac, open Terminal (Utitlities > Terminal), and type:
sudo nano /private/etc/hosts
You will need to then type in your administration password.
Then make sure that any lines that look like:
127.0.0.1 *.adobe.com
etc, are removed.
Generally, your Hosts file should have no additional entries after the commented section - but check before you remove any lines.
I don't know the exact lines for Adobe that you will need to remove - but I think they should be pretty self explanatory.
Press CONTROL + O and it will ask to Save as Filename, hit Enter to save.
Next, you will need to flush your DNS cache.
Type into Terminal:
dscacheutil -flushcache
Exit Terminal, restart AAM and you should be sorted.

Why does screen saver prompt for secure disk image password?
Okay, seems like an odd problem, but here it goes.
I go into System Preferences->Dektop & Screen Saver. As the program "loads" availabe image sources and such I get a pop-up requesting a password to my secure disk image.
Yes, I have a secure disk image in my home directory.
Yes, the secure disk image is currently "locked" (Not mounted in finder).
I click cancel (a few times, probably 2 maybe 3 times) and things continue along fine.
I select a photo source that I want for a screen save and exit peferences.
I then go an start the screen saver (I'm using Hot-Corners).
I get the message "Looking for pictures....." for , well...basically forever...
Sure enough I touch the mouse to leave my screen saver and there is the pop-up again. Asking for me to unlock my secure
disk image.
I thought this might be related to Spotlight. I tried reading several threads and have gone as far as taking my entire hard-drive/volume
and putting it into the "Privacy" tab under spotlight.
Anybody have any idea on what is going on and how I might get it so the "Desktop & Screen Saver" stop prompting me to unlock my
secure disk image? (WITHOUT having to make sure the disk image is unlocked before I sleep my screen or open the screen saver utlity)
As always, I am only speculating that this is Spotlight related so that could be a red-herring....
thanks in advance.
OSX:10.7.3
imac/3.1G/IntelUpdate: i made some progress on this issue. I found that in the ~/picture/iPhot Library/Database/ directory
there is a file called Library.apdb. This file has an entry for the secure disk image i have/had. I moved the file
to Libraryapdb.bkup and sure enough, my picture problem went away. The screen aaver panel no longer prompts
me to unlock my secure disk image.
So now the next chapter of my problem;when i open up iPhoto it wants to rebuild my photo library(which makes
sense and is what i want to haopen) so i allow it. After about 25 mins it has rebuilt the iPhoto library, but there is
one problem. The secure diskimage reference is back in the Library.apdb file that has been recreated!
So now i need to figure outnhow to get iPhoto to remove anynreference to a phot library i once had on the secure
disk image but have long since removed.
I first created an iPhoto library on my secure disk image by holding the option key and invoking iPhoto.
I removed that library awhile ago....
So how do i make iPhoto remove a no longer used iPhoto library? -
Jusat the other day i started getting prompted for Security Information required when trying to download apps. on my Ipodtouvh 4Gen. Typically when I download an app. I get asked for my apple ID and then it will allow the download. This new prompt pops up after it looks like the app is downloading. It gives me the option to cancel which will not allow the download or I have to select Security information. It then brings me to a screen where it asked for three questions but as I put the questions and answers in it bumps me back to the screen of the app I was trying to doenload. Any clues???
this has recently been happening to other people. We think that it is a fault at apples end of the line. However in the cases i have seen the problem fixes itself and it goes back to normal after a day or 2 you just have to wait!

Since upgrading to iOS 6 I am not getting prompted for my password when I update apps. Why is this?
When I updated apps on my ipad2 and iphone4S I used to get prompted for my password within a certain time. So I could update a couple and then 10 minutes later if I wanted to download or update something else I would need to put in my password again. Since I upgraded to iOS6, I don't believe I am prompted for my password the same amount of times. I updated an app this am after not using iPad through the night and it just updated, no password required. This has me concerned now because sometimes I bump buttons by accident and now I will be charged for these accidents. What has happened to Apple's brilliant security?
They've changed it in iOS and updates (and updates ONLY) do not require a password since it is really unnecessary as they have it on record that you were the one who bought the app. Why is more security needed, you aren't going to be charged for anything?
Next time you update and app go to the App Store and try to buy something. You will be asked for your password. -
Some one has blocked Safari on my Mac Air for 'security reasons'
Someone has blocked Safari on my Mac air " for security" temporarily the same message came up on my iPhone 6 Plus but is now gone. Need to remove the block from my computer
Helpful Links Regarding Malware Problems
If you are having an immediate problem with ads popping up see The Safe Mac » Adware Removal Guide, remove adware that displays pop-up ads and graphics on your Mac, and AdwareMedic. If you require anti-virus protection Thomas Reed recommends using ClamXAV. (Thank you to Thomas Reed for this recommendation.) You might consider adding this Safari extensions: Adblock Plus 1.8.9.
Open Safari, select Preferences from the Safari menu. Click on Extensions icon in the toolbar. Disable all Extensions. If this stops your problem, then re-enable them one by one until the problem returns. Now remove that extension as it is causing the problem.
The following comes from user stevejobsfan0123. I have made minor changes to adapt to this presentation.
Fix Some Browser Pop-ups That Take Over Safari.
Common pop-ups include a message saying the government has seized your computer and you must pay to have it released (often called "Moneypak"), or a phony message saying that your computer has been infected, and you need to call a tech support number (sometimes claiming to be Apple) to get it resolved. First, understand that these pop-ups are not caused by a virus and your computer has not been affected. This "hijack" is limited to your web browser. Also understand that these messages are scams, so do not pay any money, call the listed number, or provide any personal information. This article will outline the solution to dismiss the pop-up.
Quit Safari
Usually, these pop-ups will not go away by either clicking "OK" or "Cancel." Furthermore, several menus in the menu bar may become disabled and show in gray, including the option to quit Safari. You will likely have to force quit Safari. To do this, press Command + option + esc, select Safari, and press Force Quit.
Relaunch Safari
If you relaunch Safari, the page will reopen. To prevent this from happening, hold down the 'Shift' key while opening Safari. This will prevent windows from the last time Safari was running from reopening.
This will not work in all cases. The shift key must be held at the right time, and in some cases, even if done correctly, the window reappears. In these circumstances, after force quitting Safari, turn off Wi-Fi or disconnect Ethernet, depending on how you connect to the Internet. Then relaunch Safari normally. It will try to reload the malicious webpage, but without a connection, it won't be able to. Navigate away from that page by entering a different URL, i.e. www.apple.com, and trying to load it. Now you can reconnect to the Internet, and the page you entered will appear rather than the malicious one. -
ENVIRONMENT
-1 Exchange 2013 SP1 CU7 server with all roles that is also a hybrid server with Office 365 tenant, mailboxes are all on premise only LYNC online is being utilized right now.
-Exchange 2013 public folders
-Mix of Outlook 2013 SP1 and Outlook 2010 SP3 clients all fully update to day as of Feb 2015
Outlook anywhere is working perfectly across all clients both internally and externally using autodiscover. Both Outlook 2013 and 2010 clients can open the program and create a profile automatically via autodiscover and no additional logon prompts
are seen.
We set the internal and external mapi virtual directory URLs to a valid URL that also matches the Exchange 2013 SSL certificate. We set the security to ntlm, negotiate on the mapi virtual directory. We reset IIS and enabled mapi over http in
the org config. We run in to problems here.
Outlook 2010 clients appear to be working fine. We can create a new profile and open and close Outlook without any logon prompts and verify that MAPIHTTP and Negotiate are used to connect to Exchange.
Outlook 2013 clients are having problems. As soon as we try to create a profile it says your administrator has made a change that requires you to restart outlook and then a windows logon prompt appears. If we authenticate Outlook will open and connect.
This logon prompt should not occur. We can confirm that it is connecting via MAPI HTTP and Negotiate.
If we set the mapi virtual directory to NTLM only then a logon prompt also appears during every open of Outlook 2013. We can confirm that it is trying to connect with MAPIHTTP via NTLM in the outlook connection test screen.
I do not understand this behavior by Outlook 2013 which was supposed to be designed with MAPI HTTP in mind. I would think the same issues would occur with Outlook 2010 but they do not. I am not sure how to resolve this and I am looking for help.I have the same problem. Exchange and Outlook are both up to date. After creating a new profile Outlook prompts for username/password. A lot of users also get this prompt while
working - the profiles have been "migrated" from Exchange server 2010. <o:p></o:p>
Niko, as i can see in your screenshot you do not have Mapi over HTTP enabled. Why? You can change settings in the security tab – if you have Mapi over
HTTP enabled all options are grayed out (please correct me if I
am wrong):
This is a very annoying thing – does anybody else have the same problem?
Any suggestions on this?

ADF security - prompt for user id and password again on page forward
Hi,
I am working with ADF using JDeveloper 10.1.3 with Business Components and ADF Faces.
I have a Search page and a List page.
Both pages are based on the same view within the same application module.
The Search page is using the default Find and Execute Operations.
The Execute button has an action that navigate to the List screen.
faces-config.xml
<navigation-rule>
<from-view-id>/jspx/search.jspx</from-view-id>
<navigation-case>

Security (Roles and Users) is based on the jazn-data.xml and web.xml
URL Patterns for the pages have assigned to the role.
Login Configuration is HTTP Digest Authentication

Everything is fine when running the application from JDeveloper,
but when the application is deployed to the server (OC4J),
After logging into the system, the Search page prompt for user id and password again
on click of the Execute button.
Have anyone experience this problem before?
Thanks for any help.

does the same thing happen if you change your protected resource from:

I rented a movie. I want to see it using different user on same mac for security reason. How can I do this? Home Sharing fails to do this, so far.

XFA Pdf form call secure webservice without prompt for password
Hi,
We are using XFA forms within the company. We have created many (400+) interactive forms with fields to fill manually.
Now the business would like to lookup account details. They want user to be able to enter account number and then lookup details through webservice.
The webservice is created on HOST/CICS and in COBOL. We need security on HTTPS and we cannot accept that the user is prompted for password.
Our security department state that normal practice is to use KERBEROS token that gets authenticated later - is that possible with Adobe Reader??
Have anyone developed this functionality within XFA forms and Adobe Reader?
Thanks in advance,
Thomas GroenbaekReader can make Web Service calls but the form must be Reader Extended by LiveCycle Server to allow this. It does support secure web service calls but it does uid/pwsd or certificate authentication. Note that the web service can only return simple types. Objects cannot be returned.
