Proxy Authentication dialog box displayed very often

Hello,
since iOS 8.0 / 8.02 our iPads displays very often (somtimes more than 3 times a minute) for proxy authentication credentials.
We tried it with
- a payload in our Apple configurator (wifi) profile with automatic proxy config http://proxy/proxy.pac
- a manual configuration without profile and manual stored credentials and manual proxy configuration in the wifi connection
I think the manual configuration is a little bit better, but still inacceptable.
With iOS 7 and the same iPad and same apple configurator profile we don't have this problems.
Every help is appreciated.
Thanks
Michael

Corrupt authentication dialog box in 10.10.2

The OS X 10.10.2 update has resulting in corrupt authentication dialog boxes. All characters in the boxes have been replaced with the letter 'A' surrounded by their own box. This is universal throughout the OS. A simple way to see this situation is to go to the Utilities folder and attempt to make a new folder. The authentication box pops on the screen but is entirely unreadable, every letter being an A in a box.
I've done a reinstall of 10.10.1 then re-update to 10.10.2 with the exact same results. The volume being used is only for testing Yosemite and for repairing my main boot volume, which runs Mavericks. Therefore, there isn't much alteration of the volume beyond a clean installation.
Dumping user and system cache then restarting makes no difference. I've checked the volume with both Disk Utility and Disk Warrior and found no problems.
The image below is the authentication box that appears when attempting to change something in the Utilities folder:
Background:
- The problem is on a MacBook Pro 15" from August 2013 with 16 GB of RAM.
- Installed Launch Agents: Little Snitch, Intego VirusBarrier and NetBarrier, and Micromat TechToolPro.
- Installed Launch Daemons: Little Snitch, Intego VirusBarrier and NetBarrier, Micromat TechToolPro and DriveGenius 3.
- No login items.

Further testing has implicated the use of the Yosemite San Francisco Font from 'wellsriley' at GitHub. Placing the display version of the font into the ~/Library/Fonts folder will trigger the problem. Removing the font will immediately end the problem.
'wellsriley' notes that "System Alert dialogs render as [a-in-a-box] when installed improperly", meaning if the fonts are installed into the ~/Library/Fonts folder. This problem was not evident in 10.10.1 from my experience. Instead, it is advised by the developer to only install the fonts into the root /Library/Fonts folder.
My solution for now is to simply remove the fonts and not use them. Problem solved.√

Entourage 2004 - Authentication Dialog Box

Hello there,
After clicking Entourage 2004 (connecting to an Exchange Server 2007) from the Dock, it launches and presents the authentication/security dialog box (Account Information) to authenticate. If you click Cancel, you are practically bypassing the authentication process while still reading any off line e-mails and what not.
Is it possible present the authentication/security dialog box before opening Entourage, so if the credentials are right, Entourage should open, if not it should quit to protect E-mail/Calendar/Contacts...
Are there any other means to secure Entourage?
Thank you

Save Open dialog box opening very slow

I have windows 7 professional 64bit OS. whenever i try to open/save as dialog box it appears very slow, then it will say it is not responding then after 10-15sec it will come alive.
Need help!!!!!!

Blair,
I followed your suggestions above....reset IE ...clean boot. Didn't solve the problem. (had trouble making that MSCONFIG window bigger !? <wink>)
Problem still exists. And to be clear, here is the problem(s) ...I believe they are all interrelated.
#1. I end the explorer.exe process and restart it. Run Explorer and start clicking folders in my FAVORITES. System hangs for about 10 seconds before it catches up.
Alternatly, after a explorer.exe restart, if I run explorer and start clicking down through folders from the C: drive, there is no hang.   SUSPECT - some sort of file for favorites needs to be rebuilt?!
#2. Open MS Word. Type a few letters. Select File/Save. Most icons under Favorites are white. Trying clicking more than one, but system hangs for ten seconds until icons fill in.
#3. WINDOWS button, start typing in the search INTERNET....5-10 seconds before Internet Explorer (and other INT* things show up.! Usually this is instantaneous.
System Info:
Great machine and fast for over a year, and now this started FYI.

- Ensure all folders are GENERAL under properties
- Advanced Attributes - turned off "allow files on this drive to have contents indexed in addition to file properties"
- Checked Indexed location is C: drive/ User/ just my data areas....reindexed
- Tried reboot with Windows Search service disabled....no help. Turned back on.
- Tried MS Essentials off. Tried Firewall off
- Rebuilt ICONCACHE - was 8mb, now less 450kb
- Archived OUTLOOK down to a reasonable size (and had to do the manual compress to reduce the file size after)
- turned off some Windows visual effects.
- Turned off Dropbox from autostarting....this was before I tried the Clean Boot
- turned by ON (default) in Startup - though it has Unknown MFG and no details :~(   , i found that it likely is needed for my 64 bit machine.
Any help would be appreciated.

Dialog box display won't update after screen blank or being moved

I have a modeless dialog box used for status display by a plugin I wrote for Acrobat. Everything works fine until the screen blanks or the user moves the dialog box on the screen, at which point no further updates to the dialog box are displayed. My plugin consumes 100% of CPU for long periods of time so the program can appear dead without this display being updated, but nothing I have tried seems to make any difference. The dialog box is generated with ADM and things I have tried include calling "Update" on the dialog box at regular intervals, the windows "Sleep" function to yield the CPU periodically, and a host of similar tactics.
I'm guessing all the code will get run together once I click submit, but here is how I create the diaglog box (it was working fine without the "WinAppRegisterModelessDialog", but I saw a reference to it elsewhere and tried it to see if it would help, not sure if it actually serves any useful purpose):
statWin = sADMDialog->Create(inPluginRef, DIALOG_ID, IDB_DIALOG1, kADMModalDialogStyle, NULL, NULL, 0);
WinAppRegisterModelessDialog((HWND)sADMDialog->GetWindowRef(statWin));
infoBox = sADMDialog->CreateItem(statWin, 5, kADMTextStaticType, &coords, NULL, NULL, 0);
// Status header
coords.top = coords.bottom + 10;
coords.bottom = coords.top + 12;
statHeader = sADMDialog->CreateItem(statWin, kADMUniqueItemID, kADMTextStaticType, &coords, NULL, NULL, 0);
// Status line
coords.top = coords.bottom + 10;
coords.bottom = coords.top + 12;
statLine = sADMDialog->CreateItem(statWin, kADMUniqueItemID, kADMTextStaticType, &coords, NULL, NULL, 0);
// Progress bar
coords.top = coords.bottom + 10;
coords.bottom = coords.top + 15;
progress = sADMDialog->CreateItem(statWin, kADMUniqueItemID, kADMProgressBarType, &coords, NULL, NULL, 0);
sADMItem->SetMinIntValue(progress, 0);
sADMItem->SetMaxIntValue(progress, totalPages);
// Set window size, and other attributes
sADMDialog->Size(statWin, coords.right + BORDER, coords.bottom + BORDER);
sADMDialog->SetText(statWin, PROD_NAME " - Progress");
// Set header for status line
sADMItem->SetText(statHeader, " Page # % Complete Estimated Time remaining");
// Initialize progress bar
sADMItem->Update(progress);
Updates are currently performed with the following code segment. The last two lines are my attempts to get the display to update once the screen blanks:
// show it
sADMItem->SetText(statLine, textBuf);
// Update progress bar
sADMItem->SetIntValue(progress, pagesCompleted);
// Force display update/refresh
sADMDialog->Update(statWin);
// Yield for display update (in case of screen blank or user changes)
Sleep((DWORD)100);
Everything works fine until the window is moved or screen blanking occurs, after that nothing seems to work, all updates to the box cease to be displayed. Any suggestions?

OK guys here's an update. First I went to BIOS and updated the initial display setting to "LCD panel only" from "Auto". At first I thought it helped, because when I worked at the laptop without the external screen attached, the internal LCD panel resumed normally from off (previously this didn't work).
But today while I was in the office with my external 19" LCD screen attached, and both of them went off after being idle for 10 minutes, the internal LCD panel didn't resume again. So I've tried the Fn + F5 key combination to switch between modes, and I switched from dualview back to single. The internal LCD panel blinked for a second and then turned off immediately, and from that moment on, I was without picture on both of them. SO I ended up hibernating and resuming again. :( An important note - as soon as the computer began hibernating, the LCD went on and I could see the whole progress of hibernation before it turned off.
Also another note - when I'm in dualview, I always have keep the internal LCD panel as the primary screen. So unfortunately, when it doesn't resume, I don't have access to the taskbar etc to try more things...
Any more thoughts?
Thanks again!
Rado

Import dialog box displaying off screen

When I'm in the office, I work in a dual-monitor environment.
However, when working at home, I have only my laptop monitor.
If I need to import something - html file, template file,
etc. - the dialog box is displaying off screen.
I've shut down and restarted, but still the same result. When
I try to resize the RH window, it resizes off screen.
My display properties indicate only one monitor.
How to fix?
Thanks!
Cindy

Hi Cindy
Sounds like you need some multiple monitor managing software.
Try these:
MultiMon (Free)
click here
UltraMon (Paid)
click here
Other than that, you can try flying blind and navigating
using the keyboard or maybe bump your resolution to the highest
possible setting and perhaps that will bring the dialog either
partially or totally into view.
Cheers... Rick

R&R 4.10 no Password dialog box displayed when recovering a Backup

Hello all,
I am using a T61 8898-6dg with XP and r&r 4.10.314
After reinstalling the system from a XP CD I tried to reinstall an R&R backup from a network share.
R&r starts well showed me the backup files and all the files included in the backup. So I was able to select the files I want to recover and the recovery process starts.
Because the backup is secured by a password, a dialog box should appear and asking for the password. But now, r&r stops and nothing happens. I think it is waiting for the password. But I cannot see an dialog box for entering a password. Even pressing the Alt and Tab keys to bring the dialog box to the foreground don’t help.
In the rr.log file, I found the following entry:
Sat May 10 12:27:36 2008 RescueRecovery: Running: C:\Programme\Gemeinsame Dateien\Lenovo\mnd\mapdrv.exe *
Sat May 10 12:27:42 2008 RescueRecovery: No user found to display dialog '2', waiting...
The same problem I have with r&r 4.20
Any hint what I can do to be able to enter the password?
many thanks in advance
Juergen
Stuttgart/Germany

when the magic mouse is not connected it seems to work fine, I usually click the trackpad and the system prompts me for a password - I enter my password and go back to work.
However every time the problem has occurred I have left the computer with the magic mouse connected, when I return I move the magic mouse, the screensaver stops "moving" but I don't see the prompt for my password, it's almost as if the password dialog is behind the screen saver.
Hope this helps...

Labview pauses when dialog box displayed

When I display a dialog box in LabView, the program waits for the user to click ok. I would like for the program to not wait but keep running after it displays the box. How can I do this and how can I customize the dialog box?

You drop an Invoke Node from the Application palette onto the block diagram, wire up a reference to the subVI, right click the invoke node and select the method. There's an example here that shows how an invoke node is used to make a front panel visible. There are other examples on the developer zone and several have been posted to this forum. You question seems to pop up once week or so and a little searching of the forum will give you a lot of examples.

Firefox download dialog box - display program list in combobox

Ever since the re installation of my OS, whenever I wanted to open a file I always had the option to choose witch program to use from a combobox in the download file dialog box (which was OK, since I use multiple programs for the same file type). But after using Firefox for a month or so it suddenly changed and now instead of the combobox i have the "browse" button. How can I set Firefox to use the combobox again?

Select one of them, or do a search for the program you want. Then
select it. Then say what you get. Note that later, you should be able to
select another program thru the '''Browse''' button if you want to
change what you are using. Also, '''Do Not''' use the
'''Do This Automatically''' option. That will lock in the setting.
While it can be unset, it is hard to do.

How to disable Java Plug-In authentication dialog box ?

Hi,
I'm using SSL connection with client authentication. Certificate is on hardware device.
I'm providing keystore with cert for SSLContext in my app programmatically.
When I run it from console (java -jar) it works ok.
*When I use it as an applet i get browser prompt (popup dialog) for client certificate.*
How to disable it ? (jre 1.5.0_12 + Firefox + Linux Ubuntu)

-how do you code the access to the keystore ? You have several solutions : SSLContext.init(km, tm, random), or System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.keyStore", value), or implement a KeyManagerFactory. Everything is said in the guide : http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/security/jsse/JSSERefGuide.html
Last solution, running java -Djavax.net.ssl.keyStore=yourkeystore -Djavax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword=yourpassword , but it could not work in applet mode.
-I told you to check the policy, because applets usually have less rights. In the link you said, check such permissions :
FilePermission, SSLPermission (getSSLSessionContext)
-don't forget rewarding duke stars if that was the right answer :)

IS it possible to obtain the username from a authentication dialog box?

Kind of simple question and I'm looking for a simple answer. Is it possible to obtain the username from the dialob box during java web start or not?

I'm not really sure what you are asking but if you look at the Javadoc of System.getProperties() you will find a property named 'user.name' .

Dialog box display issues

Thanks for taking the time to help me with this.
I've been having issues for a few weeks, first with Acrobat Pro X, and now with Acrobat Pro XI. I can open a pdf fine, but when I try to print, or view the properties, or show the tools on the right side of the screen. There is no text. The print window shows a window with some button outlines, but no text. Same with the other windows and tools. The "open" command does show the window as it should appear.
Occasionally, the print window is all blown out of proportion. I will see two or three words across the entire screen and the window itself goes off the right for several screen widths.
This is only happing with Acrobat, but the labels on the buttons in other programs do look a little funny.
I've tried re-installing Acrobat; upgrading Acrobat; Scanning and fixing registry errors; scanning for viruses and malware. None of it made any difference. I did also get an error message that said "Acrobat failed to send a DDE command" Haven't been able to find a solution for that to see if it helps.
I'm using a Dell, running Windows 7 Pro; Creative Cloud apps; and Acrobat Pro XI
Here is an image of the screen to better show what I'm looking at.
Thanks very much to anyone who can shed some light on the issue.

This type of thing can happen when a font is missing from your system. For example, see this previous thread: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4063094

How do I log off the current user and bring back the authentication dialog box for another user to log in on Iplanet webserver?

I am using JSP.

Hey there Mike Novack,
My understanding is that she replaced the Windows Login with a fingerprint swipe correct? I found some instructions surrounding this here
So that we can best direct you through the process what operating system are you using on your T61?
If you are using Windows 7, try going to the control panel, then to the biometric devices, click the option to change your biometric device settings and you should be able to disable it there.

Authentication dialog appears in background

OSX Maverick latest release, 10.9.4, safari version 7.0.5 (9537.77.4), fresh installation.
When a web page contains some audio/video media Safari displays a proxy authentication dialog in background, the dialog is modal so it blocks the entire page, but it's unreacheable using the mouse or keyboard. It's impossibile to type the credentials in, or to click the ok or cancel buttons...
That's clearly a UI bug, does anyone know a workaround ? it's really a blocking issue, it forces me to use another browser.
Thanks to all
Leonardo

Hi Leonardo
Yes I agree, the issue is not just with auto-start movies but also movies we start manually. Of course it is very confusing for autostart movies as the whole page just mysteriously becomes unresponsive during load! :-)
I haven't had any experience where it happens with our proxy details in the server, for me it is always some proxy server related to the originating video. It is never our proxy server.
For example, if I try to open a Vimeo movie, I get this dialog behind Safari:
And I cannot type *anything* into it, or close it, which is characteristic of this bug.
The server above is something to do with Akamai, so I imagine it is a means of load distribution when serving vimeo video.
Of course, when I take the same computer to home, and use it in an environment with no proxy between myself and the internet, I never see this dialog. So the mystery is where it comes from, and why.
It is possible that our firewall config is somehow dodgy, but I don't manage it, and our IT people are not interested at all.
Because our firewall allows free access for (no need to authenticate) for YouTube, as a result I never see this issue when viewing their videos. Your issue could be minimised, for specific video servers, by allowing unrestricted access to them through your firewall.
Cheers
Chris
