Safari certificate issues after security update

Hello,
I'm having trouble with Safari not recognizing certificates.  This issue seems to have started after the most recent security update (I'm using OS 10.6.8 and Safari 5.1.9).  I just got this software update last week, but its possible it could have been around longer than that.
Here's the problem:  Some websites that I have been visiting for years with no problem all of a sudden are giving me certificate issues.  When I try to go to these sites, I get a dialog box saying "Unable to display this certificate".  If I click cancel, the site doesn't load and see a blank page.  If I click continue, every single Safari tab I have open (usually lots) tries to reload (super annoying).  The tab experiencing the certificate issue continues to fail with the same dialog two or three more times before giving up and displaying a blank page.  Checking the "always trust these certificates" box does not change the results.
My attempts to solve the problem: I've reset and relaunched Safari, with no change.  I've made sure the cpu clock is synced (at least as displayed in the upper right corner of the screen).  I went into the Keychain and changed all the certificates with custom security settings to use the system default security settings.  I've read through lengthy discussions of similar issues here (https://discussions.apple.com/message/20152546?searchText=Safari%20certificate%2 0issues%20after%20security%20update#20152546) and elsewhere on the discussion boards.
Any suggestions of what could be going on here?  Any more information I can provide to help diagnose the issue?
Thanks very much,
Adrian

I later found that I couldn't even Quit the Safari Application by the drop down menu    .... Safari>Quit Safari.... as that was also grayed out and non-functioning. Likewise the 'cmd' and 'Q' keys clicked simultaneously didn't quit the application either.  I finally used the 'Force Quit' function from the '' drop down menu which did work.
Opening Safari later ... all seems to be working fine. So apparently just a restart of the Safari app was all it took to reconfigure everything!
Nice to have it working as before....

  • PHP/MySQL issue after security update 2010-005

    Hello,
    I run Apache/PHP/MySQL on my MBP for testing Web sites.
    After the 2010-005 security update I can't connect to my databases anymore.
    I don't know how to fix this, I even don't know where to start looking.
    Ideas, anyone?

    etresoft, thanks for sharing this ... I decided to go with the TriangleJuice suggestion instead for two reasons ... first is that I wasn't sure where to find this launchd file.
    There is nothing wrong with TriangleJuice's suggestion. My only issue with creating a php.ini file is that now I have to worry about all those other settings in the ini file. If something else in PHP breaks, I have to figure out if I am the one who broke it.
    Apple ships MySQL with MacOS X Server. They probably adjusted the PHP settings to match how they have MySQL setup in MacOS X Server.
    For MySQL's, no, Sun's - drat! no, Oracle's part, they still haven't acknowledged the fact that Apple has shipped MacOS X 10.4. MySQL still ships with a Startup Item. If you don't know where the launchd file is, it is because you don't have one. You probably have a MySQL entry in /Library/StartupItems or maybe /System/Library/StartupItems. Startup Items were deprecated in 10.4. Oracle should be creating a file named com.mysql.mysqld.plist in /Library/LaunchDaemons.
    Here is what mine looks like now:

    I also don't have a /var/mysql directory and wasn't sure whether I should just create one or if this meant my configuration was different. If you feel like explaining any of this, I'd be curious to know.
    You have to create one. Such a directory probably already exists on MacOS X Server. Just make sure it is owned by mysql.
    sudo mkdir /var/mysql
    sudo chown _mysql:staff /var/mysql
    sudo chmod 0755 /var/mysql
    [jdaniel@Pele:516] /var $ ls -al /private/var | grep mysql
    drwxr-xr-x 3 _mysql staff 102 Aug 26 20:03 mysql
    Of course, /var is a symbolic link to /private/var. Long story there.

  • Start up issues after security update!!

    G4 Tower - Mac OS X - 733mhz.. After a security update 2 days ago i can not get my computer to boot. It comes up to the gray apple screen and just sits there. I put the install dvd in and went to disk utilities, but the hard drive does not show up at all. I tried to boot the computer in target mode from my laptop. It goes into target mode, but the drive never shows up on the screen. I put disk warrior in the laptop and launched it, and it seen the drive as a firewire drive, but the only option was to rebuild. I have a lot of info on the drive, and am hoping that I do not have to go to that extreme. Please help...

    I have always had good luck with DiskWarrior. I've had serious issues and DiskWarrior has always come thru .
    Are you nervous because you have never used DW before, or are you afraid it will hose your system?
    By your report, it kinda sounds as if your hard drive has either failed or on it's last leg.
    I'm guessing you had issues with the drive before installing the update and you did not know it. Updates tend to point out problems in a big way sometimes.
    I run repairs on my hard drive before installing any updates.
    I don't remember, does Jaguar have S.M.A.R.T. status in Disk utility? If so, what does it say about your drive?

  • Menu Bar Icons Disappeared and other issues after Security Update 2006-001

    Hi,
    I was really affraid when i've heard about the Safari vulnerability, so I was really happy to see the Security Update 2006-001.
    But after installing it, I'm having regrets:
    * mouse speed turned to default settings
    * system preferences crashes when i try to access to Mouse & Keyboard
    * all the menu bar icons disappeared: Bluetooth, Airport, Time, EVEN Spotlight
    * Finder is slower...
    I've repaired disk permissions but: nothing happens....
    What should I do please?
    Should I wait?

    How did you fix it? I'm having the same problem
    myself.
    Mandy,
    I'm gonna tell you a secret, just like i said my problem wasn't due to the Security Update but because of Front Row.
    How? Because, I've hacked my iMac (without iSight) to install FrontRow (with an update), and i've installed the Security Update at the same time. Restarted my computer, and thought the problem was due to the Security Update.
    If you did the same thing, here's the trick to remove Front Row:
    Delete Front Row (/System/Library/CoreServices/Front Row.app)
    Install/reinstall the the latest Mac OS X Update Combo.
    This article assumes you haven’t tried installing Front Row before without the use of Enabler. If you have used one of the very early versions of Front Row (ones installed without Enabler):
    Delete Front Row (/System/Library/CoreServices/Front Row.app)
    Delete the preference file (/System/Library/LaunchAgents/com.apple.frontrow.plist)
    Remove any Login Items that launch Front Row (System Preferences >Accounts >User >Login Items)
    Disable any shortcuts managed by third-party applications that launched Front Row.
    Reboot and reinstall.

  • Mail.app and attachments issues after security update

    Hi there
    just installed latest security update (via software update) and now when i try to attach any file to an email, I get the spinning beach ball.
    have tried rebooting and zapping the pram
    anyone experienced similar or have an idea what might have happened?
    cheers
    ben

    Hi ben.
    This could be caused by some Launch Services cache or preferences corruption. The following article describes how to manually reset Launch Services -- the notes at the bottom of the article also provide information about the side effects of deleting each of the files involved:
    Resetting Launch Services
    If you prefer using a cache cleaning utility instead of following the manual procedure described in the previous article, this other article provides links to some utilities that can be used for troubleshooting and cache cleaning:
    Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption
    It seems that the most appropriate utility for solving this particular problem is Tiger Cache Cleaner, but you may also want to consider other utilities, such as OnyX, or Cache Out X, which are free. Whatever utility you choose, be sure to read this first:
    Side effects of System cache cleaning
    As an example, this is how you should proceed with OnyX:
    1. Quit all applications.
    2. Launch OnyX and enter your administrator password.
    3. Click Maintenance. In the Reset section, check LaunchServices database.
    4. You may uncheck any other pre-checked options if you wish.
    5. Click the Execute button.
    6. Restart the computer.

  • Rosetta Problems after Security Update 2012-001

    My crack team of sys admins and I have devised a method for resolving some of the issues regarding the Security Update 2012-001 and Rosetta.
    http://www.educate-it.org/content.php?130-Rosetta-Issue-after-Security-Update-20 12-001
    Click this link for an Installer that will revert the files necessary for some Rosetta apps to run after the Security Update. This is a band-aid and is only recommended in emergency situations. Apple is currently working on a fix, but until that happens, we are stuck with reverse-engineering their update. I hope this helps those in distress from this update.

    Backup files off the computer (not TimeMachine) and disconnect.
    If you have TM, or a option key bootable clone use that to erase and restore from.
    If not, c boot off the 10.6 disk, use Disk Utility to >Repair Disk and Permissions,  (do not format or erase!!) and simply re--install 10.6 from the disk. Note: Does not touch your files and most programs, but backup your files regardless.
    Note: If Disk Repair gives a error that is not repaired, then you have to consider erasing the drive (with Zeros) and try reinstalling 10.6 fresh or replacing the drive.
    Reboot and log in, update to 10.6.8, it should not include the security update at this time (second pass it might show) because it was just released and they might need to pull it. (they need to pull it)
    When you reboot, make sure to reinstall any programs that installed kext files into OS X, you'll know, they won't work.
    If you get gray screen, hold the shift key and update your installed software so it's compatible with 10.6.8.

  • Applications not responding apparently after Security Update 2007-009

    Mail, iTunes, Skype, MSN Messenger, MainMenu, Emule, Safari and god know what else aren't responding after Security Update 2007-009.
    Hi,
    I recently purchased a new phone that does not work with macs, so I bought an application from Feisar to make it work. The application isn't freeware, so I think it is very unlikely that it bogused my system. Anyway, I installed the software, but only afterwards noticed it didn't work for my phone model with the USb interface, only through bluetooth, which I don't have. Moreover, and, in my opinion, more importantly, I also downloaded and installed security update 2007-009. After the update, I mandatorily restarted OS X and instantly noticed Mail, iTunes, Safari, Skype and Messenger not working. I click on them on the dock, they bounce (usually once, but it has occured to be more) and nothing happens. I don't get the little arrow below the icon. I see the applications in the applications folder, so they are not missing. I searched and searched on the internet and, apparently it is, to say the least, herculeanly complicated to downgrade from a software update. I tried to repair permissions and it didn't work. I tried the apple hardware test and everything came out perfect. I restarted many times and the same keeps happening.
    So I wasted half my day yesterday trying to fix this, looking into forums and trying to talk to people about it and there it absolutely no answer. Yesterday I installed the programs necessary to sync my phone in my wife's macbook and nothing bad happened. So I'm guessing it isn't about the phone plugins I installed. I've tried to download combo updates but they crash as soon as I try to install them - I even tried to install a 10.4.10 update.
    This is the error message I get:
    Command: Installer
    Path: /Applications/Utilities/Installer.app/Contents/MacOS/Installer

    I put part of in on google to check if there was anybody discussing anything related and someone suggested - bizarrely enough - updating adobe reader. I did it just in case and, of course, it didn't work. I repaired permissions a million times already, I rebooted in safe mode, I scaned the computer with apple jack (which reapetedly said that I had a "fan failure!"), I verified the disk with diskutility - which showed nothing. I tried downloading an anti-virus (ClamXav), but I couldn't open it also, I trashed my prefs, I deleted all internet plugins, but still.... nothing.
    The most likely line to follow here is the "fan failure" message in apple jack. I looked inside my g5 and all fans except for the one close to the Hard Drives aren't spining. I'm not sure this means they aren't functional or whether the temperature isn't high enough for it to be turned on. Temperature must be around 26-28 degrees Celsius today. There is nothing on the internet about that fan failure that's close enough to my case.
    I'm about to quit and take it to the very expensive - yet reliable - authorized tech support apple has in Rio. Any ideas, anyone?

    Maybe it is a security update thing! I have had similar troubles with my CS2 and other simple apps like TextEdit not opening, just doing that single bounce... I have tried EVERYTHING and now, after reinstalling my entire system, have lost access to my own user profile.
    I'm assuming you have tried starting up with your original system install disk in the computer, while you turn it on, hold the option key, it will allow you to run another hardware check, as well as to do an archive install if it comes down to that.
    good luck, please let me know if you find out something else that might be causing the problems... i've noticed that alot of mac threads have similar probs listed.

  • Keyboard, keypad glitch after Security Update 2015-002

    The overview is: keyboard problems developed shortly after Security Update-002 on Mavericks 10.9.5. I tried OS update to Yosemite; didn’t fix the problem. Reverted OS back to 10.9.5 using Time Machine for a backup date prior to the Sec Update; this fixed the problem.
    Mac mini5,2, 16gbram, wired Apple Pro Keyboard (M7803, circa Mac Cube), Apple Wireless Keyboard, LMP Wireless Numeric Keypad, Apple Magic Mouse (A1296?) iPad 2
    Within the past 2 days, Apple BT keyboard alpha keys stopped typing. During troubleshooting, I discovered that problems extended to BT keyboard, BT keypad, and wired spare USB extended keyboard. The BT keyboard pairs and works fine with my iPad. Here’s a list of the glitches:
    Apple Wireless keyboard:
      alpha keys NO INPUT
      space key NO INPUT
      Delete key works
      Force-Quit sequence works
      fn, cntrl, opt, Apple, arrow keys, shift all work
      top row keys work
    LMP Bluetooth keypad:
      keypad: 1..4, 6..9 NO INPUT
      keypad "5" registers a mouse click, NO INPUT
      keypad "0" jumps to mouse cursor first press only, NO INPUT
      =/*-+ and arrows work
    Apple Pro USB extended keyboard:
      num keys: 1..4, 6..9 NO INPUT
      keypad "5" registers a mouse click, NO INPUT
      keypad "0" jumps to mouse cursor first press only, NO INPUT
      alpha keys and number row keys work
      keypad =/*-+ and arrows work
    Besides proving the wireless keyboard works on my iPad, I reset PRAM with no improvement. (I had no problems with my Bluetooth Magic Mouse.)
    Next step was OS upgrade via Software Update to Yosemite. All above glitches remained.
    Next, I reverted to Mavericks 10.9.5 using a Time Machine OS backup dated prior to 9Mar15, the date of Security Update 2015-002. After this, both keyboards and keypad resumed working. Seems clear that the Security Update is the culprit, no?
    I reported the issue to Apple via Support Chat.
    I would like to eventually upgrade back to the Security Update and Yosemite but not when it breaks my keyboard. Perhaps I could skip over the Sec. Update and go to Yosemite? Any suggestions?

    Update:
    The day after I reverted to 10.9 to repair keyboard glitches caused by Security Update 2015-002 (and persistent in Yosemite), Apple released Security Update 2015-004. Such a quick succession of -004 on top of both -002 and -003 was the hint to me that -004 contained fixes to the glitches.
    I crossed my fingers and jumped back on the install-wagon. Yosemite 10.3 completed its second installation and my keyboards/keypads remain functional!

  • After Security Update today: "Bus error" when starting "ssh" client

    Hi,
    I'm using OS X 10.5.2 and updated my system with the newest Safari 3.1 and Security Update a few hours ago. After I did this update, I cant use the command-line ssh client anymore. When I start the ssh, I immediately get a "Bus error" on the shell.

  • Is there a fix for the wifi connectivity issue after ios6 update?

    Is there a fix for the wifi connectivity issue after ios6 update?
    Cannot connect to any wifi since update to 6.0.1
    How do I get update to 6.0.2?
    Will that even help?

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

  • Usb hard drive not loading after security update

    usb hard drive not loading after security update
    I can't seem to find any other posts about this problem.
    I have three external hard rives connect by a USB hub to my iMac.
    Problem is that if I turn on the hard drive(s) AFTER start up I get a message that the drive either was not recognized by the OS or that it was ejected unexpectedly. 
    I get the same issue but not all the time if I turn them on before I boot the iMac.
    I used the disk drive utility to "repair" the drives but they always come back as "probably ok". 
    If I restart the iMac with the drives connected (on), it seems to work but not all the time.
    A bit annoying as I am wondering if the drives are OK or not.
    I don't always need the drives as they are for backing up images from my camera using Apreture.
    This all began after i did the latest security update.
    is the update to blame?
    mahalo.

    Yes, you can still use those instructions to reset the PRAM.
    You said that you booted to your install disk and that your primary drive did not show up at the Select a Destination screen? That usually means that the computer is either not recognizing your partition, or it's not recognizing the hard drive itself.
    Start with this article and follow all the steps even if you already tried them. I suspect that you'll get to step 4 and you'll end up having to call Applecare. If you haven't done those steps, they're most likely going to make you do them anyway, so you might as well get them done before the call.

  • Safari not accessable after last update 03-02-06

    Safari not accessable after last update march 2nd 2006
    icon with "no access" apeared in applications map.
    How can this happen?
    do I have to install a new version? where can i find a new full version on mac. download?
    Has this been happening to you too?
    thanks, Jack, woodpecker01
    Powwerbook 667 titanium   Mac OS X (10.3.9)   384mb Ram.

    Sounds like a permissions issue.
    - repair permissions using Disk Utilty
    - re-install just safari 2.0 from Tiger disk1 http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301229
    MUST FIRST REMOVE THE Safari.pkg file from: HD_1 > Library > Recipts folder > safari.pkg.

  • Kdcmond could not launch, after security update Nov 09,OS 10.5,Powerbook g4

    Powerbook G4 will not boot past the grey screen with spinning wheel after latest security update from Apple.
    In safe mode: kdcmond could not launch is reported.
    I DO NOT HAVE EASY ACCESS TO INSTALLATION DISKS.
    Please post suggestions that are viable using rm or vi in safe mode.
    It will take the IT department weeks to get around to fixing this so I am hoping for usable responses in the short term.
    Powerbook G4 1GB os 10.5.7 to 8 Grey Screen/crash with exceptions after security update.
    Took corrective actions using Disk Utility then Applejack with no success. Deleted Library/Prefernces/SystemConfiguration files: NetworkInterfaces.plist, com.apple.airport.preferences.plist, and preferences.plist to get them to regenerate. The exception is gone but now, kdcmond could not launch is reported due to no localhost name found.

    No suggestions from anyone so I am giving up and returning the PC to IT. I will leave the thread open in case anyone comes up with any ideas for future reference.

  • Mail 2.0.5 CRASHES ON OPEN after Security Update 2005-009(Tiger Client)

    I'm trying to figure out how to fix this.
    I rebooted into a techtool pro e-drive and repaired permissions (as well as some other repairs to the drive, etc), but it still is crashing.
    I created a new user and opened mail just fine there.
    So... it is something in my account. Not sure exactly what to do next?

    I'm having the same exact problem. (See Mail 2.0.5 crashes when I get new mail). I deleted my preferences & my junk mail settings, to no avail.
    A remarkable number of other people are posting with similar problems, just in the past week or so alone, and as far as I can tell, no one has figured it out. There is definitely a bug here. I have a hunch that it may be related to a recent software update. I'm going to post this to the other threads in hopes of garnering some attention from Apple.
    For posterity's sake, I am connecting to a Gmail account, a POP account, and a .Mac account.
