Safari 3 not accessing secure sites

I am still using Safari 3 (3.2.3) and in the past few days I haven't been able to access secure web sites that I had been able to previously (such as an on-line mail server, bank account, etc.). When I attempt to I get a message like this: "Safari can’t open the page “https://mail.xxxxx.com” because it couldn’t establish a secure connection to the server “mail.xxxxx.com”.
It won't even let me log in to Twitter. Any ideas?

Good clue!
Open System Preferences>Network>Configure>Proxies Tab, make sure none are set, like for HTTPS, especially.

Safari will not open secure sites

Safari will not open any secure sites with a secure login. Anyone have an idea why?

Same issue here and yes, I can get to the secure sites using Firefox, Camino & Opera and no, when logged into the new user account I still can't access secure sites with Safari.
Also, I have been unable to purchase anything off of iTunes since this issue started. Does iTunes use Safariin some way? Any idea why the two things seem to be linked?
After successfully browsing Music Store & selecting the desired purchase, I hit the "Buy" button and get an error message saying that iTunes could not connect to the Music Store. "An unknown error ocurred (0x80010003)." It suggests I make sure my network connection is active & try again, but I'm clearly online.

Safari and iTunes having problems accessing secure sites

I've been having problems with iTunes not being able to access the iTunes Store. I can browse the store but can not add anything to my shopping cart. I decided it was time to see if Safari was having problems with secure sites and sure enough I discovered that it can not access secure sites either. The only way I've been able to access secure sites is via Firefox.
A typical scenerio is that I can not log onto my Apple ID. As soon as I click on the "sign in ID" link I get a pop-up stating that a secure connection to store.apple.com can not be established.
So far I've tried clearing the Safari cache and deleting site keys from my stored key chains. Nothing helps.
I'm running Safari 1.3.1 and iTunes 4.9.

Can anyone help?

Reset Safari -- Now I Can No Longer Access Secure Sites Or iTunes Store.

Hi, A few days ago I reset Safari (I'm still not sure why... boredom??). Well, now I'm paying for it. Now I can't access secure sites (such as gmail, bank accounts, etc.). in Safari. When trying to access a secure site I get an error window that reads something along the lines of: "Safari can’t open the page because it couldn’t establish a secure connection to the server." Even more annoying, I can't access my account on iTunes or access the iTunes store. When trying to do so an error window pops up that reads: "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes store. The requested keychain was invalid. Open keychain access and run Keychain first aid, then try again."... Did all that. No help. Incidentally, all my keychains are now gone).
I tried accessing the secure sites through Firefox, which still works fine. But the iTunes problem persists no matter what.
Has anyone else been encountered these same problems or know what I need to do to fix them? Any advice would be appreciated. I'm stuck!
Thanks in advance!

Still having this problem - is there no one out there who can help me? Surely someone must have had this happen before, no? You're all making me feel really stupid!!

Seen this hundreds of times, the most likely cause is CMOS battery in your PC running flat, it means that whenever you unplug your PC it loses the date and time.
SSL certificates are valid for date periods and your PC things it's not in that date period.
First thing to check is your Date/Time

Strange WLAN issue - can't access secure sites

Hi!
I've just bought a Toshiba L100-120. Everything is fine except the following.
I can't access secure sites with the built-in Intel 3945abg device. Other sites are OK.
If i connect LAN, everything is fine. If I insert my PCMCIA-wireless card, also everything works. The only problem is: to access secure sites with the Intel wireless device.
I already changed the drivers, I tried everything. It's very strange :(
Many thanks if anybody has an idea!!!!

Hi
Im a little bit confused. Do you mean the secured WLan or secured internet websites????
If you cannot enter the secured, encrypted WLan you need to enter the right key.
In other case if some websites are not displayed you could try to change the IE privacy settings for the Internet zone.

It sounds as though a script on the site, or an advertisement, is not working quite right...
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
(You also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now")
(2) Remove the site's cookies using either of these. Save any pending work first.
While viewing a page on the site:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

Help can't access secure sites?

Hi i've had this ongoing problem for the last year where by i can access sites fine with the web proxy as long as they are not secure sites like hotmail etc... i think it must be something to do with the ssl settings and having a certificate. Has anybody run into this problem and is there a workaround so you can make your own certificate so clients can access secure sites?

There isn't enough information in your post to answer your question directly.
For starters, what error message do you get? That will go a long way to identifying the problem.
For example, it could be that your proxy is not configured to handle SSL traffic. It could be that your machine isn't configured to use the proxy for SSL (there are separate settings for HTTP and HTTPS proxy servers).

Firefox shows Errror Code "ssl_error_bad_mac_read" when trying to access Secure Sites

When I try to access secures sites (URLs with https) Firefox shows me the error code "ssl_error_bad_mac_read".
This problem '''only''' appears '''in Firefox not in Internet Explorer''' and it '''also''' appears when I use Firefox in '''Secure Mode'''.
The problem appeared this morning for the first time, until yesterday everything worked fine and I didn't install or update any new PlugIns, Addons, Firewalls or something like that.
I tried to make the SSL-Test from Boston University you propose on your help page and couldn't access that page either.
I use Firefox with the version 5.0 and would be glad to receive any hint to solve the problem.

Open Firefox -> go to Tools Menu -> Options -> Advanced -> Encryption
-> Protocols section -> Put Checkmarks on both options
-> Certificates section-> select Radio Button Option 2 -> Click OK.

Safari will not display flash sites

safari will not display flash sites? Instead it will show a small box that says "flash" and once you click on it, it then displays the flash site!!
Any ideas as to why this is happening?
I am running .....
Vendor: Oracle Corporation
Version: Java SE 7 Update 25
and
Flash Player: 11.8.800.94

From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
If you wish, you may be able to salvage the malfunctioning extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. Its settings will revert to their defaults. If the extension still causes a problem, remove it permanently or refer to its developer for support.

Safari not showing secure site images (blue question marks)

I have Safari 4 installed on my Windows laptop. I am having a problem viewing secure sites. All that appears is the text and then blue question marks where the images/tables should be. This is not a problem when using Firefox, Chrome, or IE.
This is also not a problem on my other windows computers nor on my Mac.
I've tried resetting Safari, I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling Safari, nothing is working.
Any idea how to fix this?

I too am having this problem. I cannot access my gmail, ebay, facebook, or other login sites. If I attempt to access any site that requests user and password information, a safari dialogue stating "safari can't verify the identity of the website "...."". So far I've assumed that all of my certificates are comprimised. I don't know how to delete my certificates to get new ones as this information is not posted anywhere.
