Slowness and security certificate issues

After updating my firefox to 18.0 on my mac book pro mac os 10.8.2 even i get slowness and hangs on standard pages. For example when i enter facebook the pictures do not display the hourglass appears the program slows down hardly responds and i kill the task. The same issue is also about security certificates 17.0.1 was letting me in to enter for example : fb.playkb.com site. 18.0 just hangs on there too. I tried to update the flash version totally clear and uninstall and fresh install the 18.0. Still hangs. I rolled back to 17.0.1 and it works perfectly.

Could you try disabling graphics hardware acceleration? Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
Then perform these steps:
*Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
*In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
*In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
*Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
[[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
[[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]

How do i deal with 'security certificate' issues on my iPad2? I'm unable to answer the security questions that pop up when Im trying to download an app because the pop up does not load properly...

Basically my Ipad2 stopped allowing me to go to sites such as Tumblr a little while ago. It wouldn't display the page properly because of 'security certificate' issues. This in itself would not have been such a problem, but when I went to the App store to try and download the Tumblr App, a pop up appeared asking me to answer some security questions before I could successfully install the App. However, the pop up would not display correctly because of 'security certificate' issues and as a result I can't download any apps from the App Store. Can anyone help with this??

Well, I maged to delete some stuff, download the update...

Security certificate issue for Provider Hosted App (SP Online)

Hi all,
I am having a hard time with SP Online debugging a basic provider hosted app.
Steps I have taken to create the app:
created a new provider hosted app in Visual Studio 2013 and setting my SP Online debugging site (wich works perfectly for SP hosted apps).
Chose Azure ACS option, although I do not have an Azure account
When I deploy the app I get to the page on my debugging site where I must choose "Trust It", but when I do I get the message that the Connection is Unsecure/unsafe:
How can I fix this? Do I need to create an Azure account for debugging purposes already? Or is there another way to solve the problem?

Hi,
I understand that you get Security certificate issue for Provider Hosted App (SP Online).
Per my knowledge, you need to create an Azure account for debugging purposes.
To create a SharePoint 2013 app for Office 365 and publish it to an Azure web site, you can refer to:

Mail Security certificate issue and cannot send email from mail app on surface 2

well im have the same issue like others and coincidently we all started to have this issue just recently like few days ago. Please help us out as on the surface 2 mail app my Hotmail account ( The main account )
cannot send mails and on the account setting it says there is a problem with the server security certificate. So how to fix it ???

Does this issue only happen with Hotmail account? Have you tested the account in other mail programs or send a email via web mail in a browser? What is the result if we delete the account then recreate the account?

Youtube (https)security certificate issue

Hi
I'm using latest firefox version with and recently I'm facing this strange issue ... everytime I try to visit youtube, to be specific, when not logged in on any google accounts .. I can visit http://www.youtube.com but when I try to login, in which case it redirects to https:// and It shows the following error(check image url):
https://imageshack.com/i/ezbe0c53j
And if I try to add exception, it shows this screen(check image url):
https://imageshack.com/i/hj41802cj
(PS: Couldn't find upload option here so I had to use otherimage hosts)
Also I tried changing windows time, adding auto time sync from windows site and also tried changing profile, disabling add on and testing and also tried removing cache/cookies from both google.com and youtube.com and so far nothing worked ... I can't seem to access youtube while logged in (https)
Also its only youtube, no other website shows this security certificate error!
please provide a solution to this asap, thanks!

When you click Add Exception, you get a Google error page instead of a pop-up dialog? Or are you saying that after you added the exception, YouTube's home page won't load. That's mildly suspicious...
If you return to the Add Exception dialog and use the View button, how does the certificate compare with the attached screen shot?

Can't reset my password thanks to slow email and security questions issues.

I'm trying to reset my password on my Iphone so I can update my device and apps, but I forgot my password. So I decided to reset, using my username, but I never recieved an email to do so. I tried the security questions, and everytime I try to enter my birthday, the site keeps reseting me back to selecting my brithday. So in a way, there is no way I can reset my password? How do I fix this issue?

See this for contacting Apple security: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
Although your logic escapes me. YOU made several mistakes, including your security questions, not having a rescue email address, and having a weak password that someone guessed. And you expect Apple to bail you out of the predicament that YOU created instantly. They probably will, but it isn't something that you should expect.

Imac 2008 running very slow and unresponsive - HD issue???

I think i already know the answer to this question but before I shell out here is my issue.
I have an 2.8 Extreme with a 500gb HD. It’s the 2008 model. Ive had it from new and rarely has been switched off on the last 6 years.
In the last few week it started to slow down to the point that typing was an issue and the beach ball would spin during all activity
As my mac never really switches off I didn’t think it was the maintenance scripts but forces these via Onyx and also reset the machine unplugging everything, holding down P on restart etc etc.
When doing this the machine would then not restart, it chimed ok, but would power on to the grey screen with apple logo and then shut down. ( A loading bar would also appear)
The only way to get the machine back up and running ( in its slow state) is to start in recovery mode and load form a time machine back up - Once done it restarts ok and you can use it but it is still very very slow.
I have used Disk utility in normal working mode and it says the disk cannot be repaired and try it from recovery mode. I have run DU in recovery mode and it say the disk cannot be verified or repaired and to back up. The mac then unmounts the disk.
I thinking HD issue and was going to swap it out for one of these.

Thanks in advance

It certainly sounds like a hard drive failing to me. Try a Safe Boot to see if the system can repair itself

You can try one more thing. It's a bit of a hack, but it's worked for many, many people.
Find and install Foobar 2000.
Then find and install the "multi-plugin for iTunes" and install it.
Open up Foobar and set it to use KERNAL streaming. Close Foobar. and give it a go.
That's the only other suggestion I can think of that you haven't already tried.
iTunes skin with Foobar sound engine = good to go.
iTunes for windows needs a major overhaul. It's laggy, too limited in the codecs that can be used, and has no kernal streaming. (sigh)
They really need to do something fast.

Safari and secure connection issues

Today I started receiving errors when I try to log-in to secure web sites such as e-mail or password protected sites like "My eBay". Before I can get to the log-in page I get a drop down screen reading
Safari can’t open the page “https://login.yahoo.com/config/login_verify2?.partner=sbc&.done=http%3a//sbc.yah oo.com/” because it couldn’t establish a secure connection to the server “login.yahoo.com”.
It has now spread to iTunes and I cannot purchase songs.
I have run keychain first aid in the Access keychain program.
I downloaded the latest security update a couple of days ago. Wondering if it screwed up anything. anybody got any ideas?

hey there pease check the article below

Time Capsule Airport (WiFi) security certificate issue...

[sorry if this is the wrong forum, I couldn't find one for Time Capsule]
I'm using a new Time Capsule (2TB) for backups via Time Machine and also as a wireless router. All the sudden, whenever I access an SSL site I get an invalid certificate error. But if I switch to another router no error occurs. One of the invalid certificates occurred when accessing a brokerage account (their support was baffled), the cert was from GE Akamai -> *.liveperson.net. Or sometimes I get a server error. I get the same errors from a PC (gulp, sorry) when using the Time Capsule as a wireless router. Again switching over to one of my other routers, the problem goes away. I cleared cookies etc. All my routers are password protected, and I live in a very rural area with no neighbors.
It's all been working fine for at least 6 months (since I bought the thing), I haven't changed anything(!).
I have switched routers and disconnected the Time Capsule from internet access.

More information about this problem, having read an old thread.
When using my Time Capsule as the WiFi router -- I get a "sarfari can't open..." message when putting a watch on an ebay item or "almost" any page that requires SSL. It's supposed to redirect to Sign In.
I tried everything, clearing cache, history, cookies... The only thing that works is using another WiFi router!
I read an old thread that indicated this is a known problem and to update the firmware, however I'm using the latest firmware.
So when I switch to another router it's all fine, however, when I close the lid on my MacBook Pro, and reopen, it switches back to using the Time Capsule's WiFi!!! If I unplug the TIme Capsule from the DSL line, then I get all kinds of configuration errors... ARG

No AV programs are available for webOS that I know of. There really isn't any need for one yet, since the OS is pretty secure. :-)

The server's security certificate is not yet valid!

I am getting this message with Google Chrome to access https sites (facebook.com for instance.
This message is only received with my primary user, other users function properly.
The system clock is set automatically and is showing the correct date.
Advancing the system time setting manually about 2.5 month or so the browser returns an "expired" message.
I am in web development and cannot simply replace my default user.
Is there anywhere I can look to see what is causing this error?

Hi krudesill,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
Are you seeing the same security certificate issue in Safari? The article linked below provides some information and a troubleshooting suggestion that may resolve the issue.
OS X Mavericks: If your certificate isn’t being accepted
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14003
If a certificate is not accepted, it may have expired or it may be invalid for the use to which it is being applied. For example, some certificates may be used for establishing a secure connection to a server but not for signing a document.
The most common reason a certificate isn’t accepted is that the certificate authority’s root certificate isn’t trusted by your computer. Before your computer will trust a certificate authority, you must add the certificate authority to a keychain and set the certificate trust settings.
Some apps (such as Safari) display the root certificate from the certificate authority as part of the message from the certificate authority. In this case, drag the root certificate icon to the desktop.
Drag the certificate file onto the Keychain Access icon, or double-click the certificate file.
Choose a keychain from the pop-up menu, then click OK.If you’re asked, type the name and password for an administrator user on this computer.
Select the certificate, then choose File > Get Info.
Click the Trust Settings disclosure triangle to display the trust policies for the certificate.
To override the trust policies, select new trust settings from the pop-up menus.
I hope this helps.
