Security certificate no longer valid after upgrading to latest FF.

I upgraded to the very latest version of FF over the weekend and now I can't access a site I had been accessing for the following error:
An error occurred during a connection to grdpmgr01.dmz.domainname.com:7799.
Issuer certificate is invalid. (Error code: sec_error_ca_cert_invalid)
The certificate is self-signed. We have a similar problem with IE that we've worked around.

"... you won't be able to disable PKIX in Firefox 33 and later."
On "https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/secure-connection-failed-error-message#w_the-certificate-is-not-trusted-because-it-is-self-signed" is states:
"...uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is not trusted because it is self signed. (Error code: sec_error_ca_cert_invalid)
Self-signed certificates make your data safe from eavesdroppers, but say nothing about who the recipient of the data is. This is common for intranet websites that aren't available publicly."
With disabling the workaround to access self-signed https sites, Mozilla makes it impossible to access valid websites (like intranet pages, router administration, etc.).
BRAVO !!!
That's the first - but major - reason to never ever use Firefox again...

Self signed SSL Certificates no longer work after upgrade to 37.0.1

I followed these two articles to create local self signed certificates and they have been working fine since February. Now with the update to 37.0.1 I get "Secure Connection Failed" while trying to access my local website through FireFox. IE and Google Chrome have no problem accessing the local site.

http://www.jayway.com/2014/10/27/configure-iis-to-use-your-self-signed-certificates-with-your-application/
I have already deleted cert8.db, restarted FF, then re-imported the self signed certificates but get the same error. No other software has changed on this box except the automatic upgrade to FF 37.0.1.
The network setting is already set to use "No Proxy"
How do I fix this?
Windows 8.1 Pro
IIS 8

I have exactly the same problem. All servers and devices that use a self-signed certificate are not reachable anymore via FF37.0.1 after upgrade to FF 37.0.1.
Firefox prints:
"Secure Connection Failed
The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.
The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.
Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem."
I'm not getting the chance to add an exception hence no access to the server anymore.
This is a severe problem, because all internally used Glassfish servers in our test environments run with self-signed certificates. As Firefox blocks access to them I cannot maintain my servers anymore.
I have the same problem with Chrome but not with IE - IE is the offers to add an exception but suffers the blank page problem when accessing Glassfish.
I tried to adjust the following values in the FF config:
security.tls.version.min = 0 ;default
deleted cert8.db and restarted FF
I'm really lost, kindly advise.

Firefox Mac: Flash no longer works after upgrading to latest version of Yosemite.

I'm running the latest version of Yosemite and with the recent upgrade, I can't get any video (Flash, YouTube, etc.) to run using Firefox. Works fine in Safari and Chrome. I did all of the usual permission repairs, reboots, Firefox resets, etc. Nothing seems to work. Any advice?

With a bit more digging on the net... I fixed it!

On 2011 iMac, External Altec Lansing speakers no longer work after upgrading to Mountain Lion.
They DO work on a lenovo machine but not my iMac. reset Pram - no luck. took speakers from wife's desktop, they
do not work when jack plugged into my iMac - Sys Prefs "SOUND" only lists "internal speakers/ built in" as available options.
I used my altec lansing speakers on 3 macs including this one for 5-6 years.....now with Mountian Lion I can only get internal speakers???
Ideas? Any/All help would be greatly appreciated - been going nuts with this for 2 days now.

Hi,
When you start Messages fro the first time you are asked for an Apple ID
When this is verified and entered it appears in Messages Menu > Preference > Accounts and is Enabled.
The App should have also picked on on those iChat Accounst you had before.
These should be Enabled if they were when you last used iChat.
Exactly which "Accounts" are logged in can be seen in Message Menu > Accounts and will include the iMessage "Account" and Bonjour.
In the Window menu you will see CMD +0 for the Messages window and CMD+1 for the "Buddies" window which is a combined list at this stage.
Go to the Preferences > General Section and Untick the "Collect all accounts into one list".
This will give you separate iChat type Buddy lists.
You can check if that account/Buddy list is set to Invisible or if in the Preferences > Accounts > Security you have settings that will block some people from seeing you as On line.
You are saying Buddies can see you as On Line which implies they are still sending to your AIM based Names (@Mac.com is a valid AIM Screen Name)
I am not sure from your post if you are trying to iMessage their email IDs thinking they are Apple IDs and that they are using Messages as well.
There is no Buddy list for iMessages side
No-one can tell you are "On Line" until they have your details in the "To" spot in Messages with the correct iMessaged contact info (iPhone Number or Apple ID)
Obviously an Apple ID can be an email or look like one.
In some cases they are also valid AIM Screen Names as well.
In the case or the @mac.com name you may have linked this Apple ID to iMessages as well.

Did you try deleting then reinstalling the app? Sometimes developers will need to update their apps for compatibility. If it still doesn't work after reinstalling, wait a few days to see if an app update becomes available.

The button's broken. S**t happens. Apple will replace your phone. If in waranty it will be free of charge. If not, you will pay $149.
You can elect to have it repaired at a 3rd party shop near you if you choose, but this will void all warranty if there's any left.

Script no longer works after Upgrade to 10.4.6

The following script worked fine using 10.4 thru 10.4.5 but no longer works after upgrading to 10.4.6.
When I highlight a folder and then run the script the highlighted folder is moved to a specific "Achive" folder, depending on whether the highlighted folder has a ".0" or ".1" or etc in its name.
When I run the script using 10.4.6 I get an error indicating that the highlighted folder already exists in the destination.
Anyone else having Applescript problems with 10.4.6?

I, too, immediately started having problems with my scripts immediately after updating to OS 10.4.6. I put my scripts in "Library/Applications/..." so that the scripts associated with particular applications are available in the menu bar. I don't know if that has any bearing on the problem, but for me, it was not any particular script, but just about every one that started going funny.
First, I noticed that my scripts would typically work right once, but fail in some odd manner the second time I tried to use one. The second thing I noticed was that the modification dates of my scripts were changing to the time that I last executed the scripts, even though I had not altered and recompiled any of them in weeks. Finally, I noticed that the scripts that were failing were ones in which I had used property statements to initialize some of my variables.
What I think is happening is this: for some strange reason 10.4.6 is recompiling scripts every time they are run, and variables are being initialized, not to the values specified in property statements, but to whatever the variable was the last time the script ended.
I discovered that I could prevent this from happening by (1) recompiling all my scripts to make sure all the property statements were back in effect, and then (2) setting the permissions of all my scripts to read only. This seems to prevent whatever in 10.4.6 is recompiling the scripts from doing this each time the script is run. At least, the modification dates are no longer changing inexplicably, and all my scripts are running reliably again.
It's a bit of a pain to have to remember to reset script permissions to read/write whenever I want to make a change, and then change them back to read only before executing, but it seems to be a reliable workaround. I'd appreciate hearing if anyone else can replicate this phenomenon, or tell me if I'm on the right track.

I have Acrobat 7.0 updated to 7.1.4 which surprising no longer works after upgrading my mac os

I have Acrobat 7.0 updated to 7.1.4 which surprising no longer works after upgrading my mac operating system to OS 10.8.5 (mountain lion), and gives an err message that system no longer supports PPc applications. I guess Acrobat 7 is a PPc application and wanted to know if there is any work-forward here to be able to keep using this product? I didn't see this coming.

There may be parts of it that work if the MAC is anything like the PC. I have been able to get AA 7 to partially work on a Win7, 64-bit machine, but several work-arounds are required. The biggest one is the installation of a PS print driver and such. So, can you open Acrobat and/or Distiller? Do they seem to function? If so, there may be some workarounds. Otherwise you probably need to purchase AA XI. Actually, I would recommend purchasing the newer version anyway -- just trying to give you a picture of what might be possible.
When you say it no longer works it is not clear what you mean. You may need to clarify and also indicated if you have tried repairing the installation and such. I can't say a lot more since I am not really familiar with the MAC.

Back to my mac no longer works after upgrading to Lion

Back to my Mac no longer works after upgrading to Lion
After I upgraded my home machines to Lion, I can no longer access them from my work computer, which is running Snow Leopard. When they were both Snow leopard, it worked fine. How can I get them working again? I don't have control over the OS on my work computer. Is it necessary for me to downgrade all of my home computers to Snow leopard in order to get them talking again?
Additionally the binoculars icon appears in the menu bar all of the time. In previous versions, this would only happen when somebody connected to my machine. Could these problems be related?

OK, so further investigation has addressed the BTMM issue on a remote machine.
With all machines running lion, I was having issues trying to log in to a standard user headless machine already running. In Snow Leopard, I had no issues with this since you can log in via screen sharing using an admin login that's running a standard login. Lion allows multiple accounts to be signed in which is handy since you can now run virtual sessions. This means you can admin the remote computer without bothering the remote user.
The problem was that now logging in using admin login brings up the admin account (which makes sense) instead of the desktop to the standard login. I applied a similar solution to a problem that was related to screen sharing I found on this board. What I believe to be the fix is to add the standard user to the screen sharing user list. Then screen share to the remote account using the standard user credentials.
So on the remote computer, in System Settings->Sharing->Screen Sharing, add the standard user to be allowed access. Previously I only had admins. This may not be an ideal solution for what I'm trying to do since the remote computers primary login is the standard user to be used as a common computer, but it now works so I am happy with it.
Now my only "problem" is my AEBS complaining about my MobileMe credentials, but it doesn't appear to have an impact on BTMM performance so I'll quietly wait for a fix down the road.

HT3964 power outage seems to have upset macbook pro....says security certificates aren't valid for sites like facebook, google, and apple app site...cannot connect to app store to update

Hi k,
I don't know if it's the same in your OS, but in 10.6.8:
Go to Applications > Utilities > Keychain Access > Keychain Access menu > Keychain First Aid > enter your password > click on Verify > click on Start. If you get a message saying something needs to be repaired, click on Repair > Start and wait for it to finish.
