The lock icon on the network preferences is missing.

Is there a way to get the admin authorization back? I just upgraded to Maverick. The lock icon on the network preferences is missing. Also, below is a permission verification problem.

Given that you are logged in as that user, and most likely the admin user of the Mac, then it makes sense that you can change your own settings. If you were logged in as a different user, then you would not have access to change the settings for this admin account.

What does it mean on an ipad2 when the lock icon beside the signal strength comes on and off?

What does it mean on an ipad2 when the lock icon beside the signal strength comes on and off, and an intermittant lock appears on the left beside the SSID name?
I am trying to connect to a Cisco network, and even though the SSID is open authentication the ipad will either say it cannot connect or ask for the password.

That's a "resize" arrow. Try relaunching Finder (Cmd+Opt+Esc) or >Force Quit

What does the lock icon on the iPod Touch in the upper right corner mean?

Wbat does the lock icon in the upper right corner of the iPod Touch mean?
How is it used?

That means your iPod is locked, or will not rotate the screen when you rotate your iDevice. To turn it off, you double-tap the home button, swipe to the right and you'll see the same icon, but bigger. Tap that.
That's all! Simple as 123!

Lost the Lock Icon on my Network

My network keeps losing the lock icon that displays with the network name. I think this is happening with power shortages or outages. I have checked the settings online and it says WPA Preshared Key. Is the network still secure???? I have a WRT54G wireless router.

Well in this case it should not happen but if it is happening try to change the Security mode of the Router i.e open the Router setup page.. Goto wireless tab,click on wireless security sub tab and change the security mode....
Then Save the settings... After doing these settings observe that lock icon shows up or not...
Secondly if you see it is showing WPA Preshared Key then yes it is well secured network..

How can i get ipod nano to get the lock icon off the top left corner?

Hey, my moms ipod nano won`t sync to her computer. Now it has a lock icon in the top left corner and i can`t get it to go away. Can anyone help me?

I assume you have made sure the hold switch along the top of the Nano is set to Off?
If none of the 5 R's are able to resolve the issue, it's likely a hardware issue, meaning you'll need to have the iPod serviced/replaced either by Apple or a third party service.

Unlock the lock icon on the nano?

The lock icon on my sons nano is on the screen and I don't know how it got there. I can't do anything with the nano. I have reset it to the factory settings but still nothing. Any suggestions? Thanks

Theres two locks on the nano, firstly the hold button on the top, its slides accross.
Secondly theres a screen lock that uses a four didgit pin code but that shouldnt be set withought you doing it.
Theres a master reset you can do on your ipod, slide the hold on top of the nano to lock then back again, then press in the menu and center button till the apple icon apears.
Theres a small booklet that comes with the nano explaining it.

What happened to the lock icon at the bottom right hand corner?

When I would order items on line, I would see this lock icon at the bottom right hand corner of the window. I thought it meant the site was secure. Now I just see the fox head icon. I don't know if it's secure. Is it?
Nothing is wrong with firefox, but I don't know if this feature has been removed or moved elsewhere. It provided some sense of comfort seeing the lock icon on sites where I was ordering items.

In Firefox 4 and later you no longer have the Status bar that showed the padlock in previous Firefox versions. 
The padlock only shows that there is a secure connection and doesn't guarantee that you are connected to the right server. 
So you might still be connected to the wrong server if you make a typo in the URL and someone has claimed that mistyped URL. 
The functionality of the padlock has been replaced by the [[Site Identity Button]] on the left end of the location bar.

I am not getting the "Lock" icon on the tool bar when using my banking site.

Why is the "Lock" icon not showing when I am on a secured site?

Site identity is fine; it confirms I am where I think I am. The padlock is a global standard for a secure connection. Please bring it back.

In system preferences shouldn't the lock icon be unlocked before a password can be changed?

In system preferences should the lock icon be unlocked before a password can be changed?

You have to know the old password in order to change to the new one if you select the user anyway, so no.

In System Preferences, I click on the LOCK icon, and it says AUTHENTICATING and starts spinning but nothing happens

I'm trying to make changes to System Preference, but I'm unable to do so because the LOCK icon will not unlock. It just keeps saying AUTHENTICATING and spinning and although I wait, it never stops authenticating. I am the ADMIN, so this is not a guest user issue.

Try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account to see if you get the same thing. Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear and again when you log in. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don’t do them all at once.

Despite having removed non-desired wi-fi airport network in my system preferences, the removed network continues to appear when I click on the Airport icon in the menu in the upper right hand corner of the screen. Any suggestions?

I'm trying to remove an unwanted Wi-Fi network on my IMAC but after removing it in System Preferences
it still shows up when I click on the Airport icon in the task bar ? The other thing that keeps happening is
the Airport changes networks at random and when it does my wireless printers won't work until I change
the network back again... Very annoying... Any help would be appreciated

I've tried the network reset, it didn't work. My phone works fine, just a lilttle bit slow before i upadated to 7.0.4. And now not only the wifi, the phone itself is slower than ever. I wish i didn't udgrade to iOs 7. There's too much problems. There's this one time that I can't send iMessage at all.

Hi s.kouris,
I'm afraid that unless you are able to contact the previous owner and have him wipe the device, or provide you with his Apple ID password so you can delete the iCloud account, you are out of luck.
With iOS 7, an Activiation Lock was added to deter thieves. This lock prevents anyone but the owner of the device from deleting the iCloud account and restoring the device:

Unless you are able to reach the original owner and get the device wiped or the iCloud account deleted, you are stuck with a brick.
Sorry,

How do I delete old wifi networks from appearing in the wifi icon in the menu bar.

Just bought a new Airport Time Capsule and is up and running OK.
When I click on the wifi icon in the menu bar all my old wifi networks appear
which are then viewable by neighbours although the networks themselves are PW protected.
In system preferences>network>advanced I have deleted all my old N/Works allowing only
my new one to appear.
How can I delete the old networks I no longer use from re-appearing in the list under the wifi icon?
Alan

When you delete old networks in System Preferences > Network > WiFi > Advanced, be sure to click the OK button, then click the Apply button in the next window that appears.
You also need to delete the old networks in KeyChain Access as follows:
Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > KeyChain Access
Click on the name of an old wireless network to highlight it
Click the Delete key on your Mac
Do the same for other old wireless networks that you no longer use, then restart your Mac.

I just upgraded to Firefox 5.0.1 and since the "lock" icon never appears when accessing secure websites, where should I look for it?

I just recently upgraded to Firefox 5.0.1 and now the "lock" icon doesn't appear anywhere (I can find) when accessing secure websites. I haven't seen it once. It used to appear in the lower right corner of the screen. I also have Norton Internet Security.

Padlock is no longer part of Firefox; it was removed beginning in Firefox 4. The padlock shows that there is a secure connection but does not supply additional information. You could have made a typographical error and still have been connected to a secure connection. The padlock was replaced in Firefox 3 with the Site Identity Button. Familiarize yourself with the Site Identity Button at the left end of the Location Bar:
