Too Many Pop-up Dialogs

Several agents such as the calendar agent and Address Book Sync pop up requests for authorization every few minutes, whether or not the computer is in active use. It's annoying, and although it can be suppressed using Do Not DIsturb, I'd like to be able to make the authorizations less frequent.
Using the Edit menu in Keychain Access I was able to select Change Settings to change the timeout for the Login keychain, but the similar settings for other keychains such as Local Items and System (which some of these agents want to access) are greyed out, even after I unlock those keychains. Is there a way to either change their settings, or link them to the Login keychain so that I don't have to enter my password multiple times whenever the computer sleeps? Or some other way to achieve the same effect?

hello bruce, this sounds like a problem possibly caused by malware on your pc. please go to ''firefox > addons > extensions'' & remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, things that you have not installed intentionally, don't know what purpose they serve, etc). also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there and run a full scan of your system with the security software that you have in place and different other tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] & [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner].

Too Many Authentication Required Dialogs

Hi,
I'm using Java 1.6.0_u10, at a client site, behind a Microsoft Proxy (Poxy?) Firewall.
when I try any Applets, or Java Web Start Apps, I get way too many "Authentication Required" Dialogs.
How many is too many? well for me 1, really, but I'm giving up after typing my username/password
- and clicking the "save this password in your password list" - (not sure what that's supposed to do,
if not save me from these dialogs) - for the *+6th+ time*. It seems to be once for every resource accessed, even though
they all come from the same domain - or they should.
In the Java Control Panel, I have tried Manual Proxy Settings, with the same settings from Firefox, System settings and Browser settings.
I'm getting a bit fed up.
Question: Does anyone have trouble free experience of Java Web Start (and plug-in) apps/applets behind an authenticating proxy Firewall?
If so, what's your secret?
After 12 years of Java development, I'm not exactly a newbie. I haven't noticed any of this stuff happening with Flash..and Firefox seems to cope. (although Acrobat reader doesn't manage to update itself, and Netbeans 6.5 is repeated getting me locked out of Windows, but that's another story)
I know the firewall is a nuisance, but if Sun really wants to catch up in the RIA market, it just has to... just work.
Rgds, and thanks for reading, rant over,
Matthew.

That's really odd.
I'm behind a NTLM authenticating MS Proxy server at work and I don't have an issue with Applets or JNLP.
I'm on Java 1.6.11
There a definitely issues with other software, for instance neither Apple's Safari or Google Chrome (both webkit) will work through the proxy server.
But Java does.

Too many pop-ups

I can't even look at a website...any website because the pop-ups won't go away. I close them and they come right back. I have deleted everything from my computer that is not necessary to run the software I have but nothing helps. The pop-ups are about Java, Windows drivers and some vieo player thing. I don't trust them. What should I do?

hello, you may have malicious addons present. please try these steps:
# [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems|reset firefox]] (this will keep your bookmarks and passwords)
# afterwards go to firefox > addons > extensions and in case there are still extensions listed there, disable them.
# finally run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] and [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner] to make sure that adware isn't present in other places of your system as well.

Firefox is blocking too many pop-ups, eliminating some essential pics

When I go into Ebay or Paypal there are pop-ups being blocked. My pics on Ebay listings are not appearing in Firefox, do appear in other browsers.

All you have to do is add those sites to your exceptions. You can find the instructions [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Pop-up%20blocker?s=pop-ups&as=s#w_pop-up-blocker-settings here].

"Too Many Real Instruments"

I am posting this in the '09 topic, but my question really dates back to Garageband '08. I rely on Garageband often, and I'm a big fan of it. However, it contains a serious problem which I need fixed.
I create a new project, drop a single iTunes song into it, and begin to edit. Almost every time, randomly while playing the song the "Part of the project was not played. This project has too many real instrument tracks to be played in real-time" warning message appears. I only have 1 track! Worse still, my audio driver lets out a terrible "HONK" which startles me and blasts through the entire house. After that, My sound output faintly exists until I open up Audio MIDI Setup and change a random setting on my output.
I am quite tired of this predicament. Is there anyway to fix this (without money)?

I was experiencing a similar problem, and I just got off the phone with applecare and went through all their steps.
I'll try my best to recount them here. But before I do, let it be said that the tech fellow, once he heard what I was doing, exclaimed that my core problem was that I needed to be creating new projects, and not re-using the same project (ex. "My Song 2") over and over.
What I've been doing is backing up a pile of mini-discs that have live concerts on them. A couple of hours of audio each one, and I've been recording them into Garageband. After I divide the concert up into songs and export them to itunes, I've been deleting the track in Garageband and then importing the next concert (repeat x 10 concerts).
About 7-8 concerts in I started getting that popping sound when the sound would cut out (made the sound of depressing the safety-seal bubble on the metal lid of a jam jar). At first, quitting Garageband and opening it again would work. On the 10th concert, when the sound cut out the sound for the whole computer would stop working (itunes, volume buttons on my keyboard, everything).
So the tech fellow said the lesson is this: create new projects. Don't be shy about it. No need to re-use and recycle in cyberspace.
Now - my applecare steps:
- First we went: Macintosh HD, Library, then dragged "Caches" to the trash
- then went to Finder, Go, Utilities, Disk Utility, Macintosh HD, Repair Disk Permissions (that took some time)
- then restarted the computer
All seems to be well now.
Good luck

TS3682 I have tried to restore me iPod that is disabled due to typing in the wrong password too many times. iTunes keeps giving me a box saying that it can't connect because I need to type in the passcode on the iPod (which I can't) what do I do now?

I have followed the steps provided by apple to restore an iPod touch. It is disabled due to having the wrong password entered too many times. When I get part way through the restore process on my computer it pops up a box saying that it can't restore until I enter the passcode into the iPod. I have tried this same process over 5 times now and keep gutting the same results. It is my kids iPod and he has only had it since September. Someone please help me before I throw the thing through the window and my kid strangles me!!! Thanks!

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

Why does it keep telling me I have too many tabs open even if I only have one or 2?

When I am online, several times a day it will not open a new tab and pop up a screen that tells me I have too many tabs open and gives me the option to let it close them or I can close them. But I may only have 1 tab open, sometimes more than that but it doesn't seem to matter how many. I can shut down my computer and bring it back up and it will work ok for a little while and then all of a sudden when I go to open a new tab it does it all over again. I am using mozilla and vista.

Hello Sadiq,
I agree with the previous post, I'm afraid there is no quick fix for this, especially since we cannot see all of these red entries.
If your errors are purely in memory management on SAP side, you should consider posting in the CST "memory management" part of this forum
Advise from a DB2 perspective is to make sure that all memory specific setting are correct as per note:
899322    DB6: DB2 9.1 Standard Parameter Settings
After setting these parmeters and carrying out further fine tuning yourself, you should consider scheduling an early watch session from SAP.
Best of luck,
Paul

I get "secure connection failed" pop-up (dialog) every 3 secs! ugh!

To connect to WiFi at a certain location, the router is setup to first automatically send me to a login page before I am allowed to go anywhere else on the internet.
All fine and dandy, except that I usually leave GMail open in my browser, which is setup to ping it's server evry 3 sec or so! When the GMail ping is redirected to the WiFi login page however, I get a stupid pop-up dialog telling me that the security certificate (of the WiFi provider) is for a different server than GMail. DUH!
This dialog blocks my entire browser functionality in the background, even as I'm in the middle of authenticating myself into the WiFi server.
Bottom-line, Mozilla/Firefox makes me continuously close dialog boxes instead of helping me get faster on the internet. I cannot add an exception for the case where I'm redirected, because ANY webpage would be redirected, so I'd need an exception for everything.
Now, the WiFi provider and GMail could definitely modify some settings to prevent this, but in the end it's not their problem!
My browser should not block me with pop-ups I MUST click on, at the worst it should just take me to an error page until the problem is fixed (i.e. I am logged in to WiFi).
I know this is a Firefox bug (since ~ year 2000 if I'm not mistaken), so PLEASE tell me how to get rid of this pop-up dialog at any security risk for me whatsoever, because I'd rather connect to internet unsafely than not be able to do it at all!
P.S. I already have in about:config
browser.ssl_override_behavior;2
browser.xul.error_pages.expert_bad_cert;true
... to no avail!

Long before I had this prob. I corrected my system time that showed 6 years back to 2005 year. The prob was solved. Hope this helps u too.

Cant' search for keywords - there are too many of them

It's probably a known bug/issue, but when you have to many keywords, you can't search for all of them.
This grey box pops up with all your keywords, which are ordered alphabetically. Unfortunately I'm not able see my keywords from A to L, because there are too many.
Here is an image to further illustrate what I mean.
http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3222/23789607331e284cabe4o.jpg

Thanks, what a bummer . I was hoping for a fix or a freeware solution :P.
Is there a way to notify Apple about this? Keywords seem poorly designed, or at least not thought through, compared to other programs.

Too many authenticated connections

I've got a customer with a BT line, sending via mail.btinternet.com. For the last month or two they've complained that they keep getting asked for their password.
I've checked out the customer's system and I can see that it's not a password problem, but the SMTP server is instead coming back with "too many authenticated connections".
I can see that a host of BT customers on here are reporting password problems, I would guess that they are experiencing the same issue, that these are not password problems, but SMTP server issues on BT's new mail systems. The message would suggest that the server is unable to take any more connections so some sort of resource issue at their end.
Of-course unless you're looking under the bonnet of the SMTP connection, you won't be seeing this message, just the popup asking for your password again. It's not a password issue. If you try the connection multiple times, it will go in the end (when you get a connection that is willing to be accepted by the SMTP server.
I've configured the mail client to the letter, as per BT's stated configuration, and like I say, it will work on a percentage of connections. On a good run, you might get 10 out of 10 successes, other times 1 in 3.
Please let me know if anyone is experiencing the same message. The message could perhaps be a red-herring of some kind, perhaps not able to successfully negotiate the authentication / encryption using this particular mail client. The customer is using Mac Mail and there do appear to be quite a few customers referencing Mac's / IOS on this forum, not many Outlook customers complaining.

Hi Bookanengineer,
Many thanks for your post, we have been away and asked some questions around this and the view is that this is unlikely to be an SMTP load issue. There is a limit to the number of authenticated connections we allow per user and the password pop ups being seen are more likely to be due to the customer having too many authenticated connections which could also be due to sessions not being closed correctly
We believe that this is more likely to happen to client users as each time your client connects it opens an authenticated session. If, when you disconnect, the session does not close for whatever reason, the mail server still shows you with a session open. If that happens often you will quickly hit the limit for the number of sessions allowed per customer
We do however need to eliminate other issues so need examples to further investigate, I appreciate that you are speaking on behalf of one of your customers, but if you are able to send in any details to us so we can take a look that would be great. You can send in the details using the "Contact The Mods" link found in my profile.

How many photos are too many photos for iPhoto? When do I need to upgrade to Aperture?

How many photos are too many photos for iPhoto? When do I need to updgrade to Aperture?

Hi Terrence, this is what happens, all too often when I click on something, sometimes it takes me 5 more clicks on the mouse while moving the cursor around to get rid of it. The one below popped up as I clicked on my junk mail.
The next one popped up when I was trying to get on to a site. This happens all the time. Don't know why it is happening. It happens on iPhoto, Aperture, everywhere I go, FaceBook...everywhere and at any time. So frustrating. I don't know if this is normal, but this was happening just before my last mac died a year ago.

Too many hard drives?

I'm experiencing a growing problem, and that's that I'm getting too many hard drives. I originally bought a 250GB drive, then added a 400GB drive, and lastly I got a 100GB bus powered drive for portability. But now I need another drive for media and render files. The problem comes when I've run out of power outlets, and only see that issue getting worse. I was thinking of getting something that will let me expand my storage as my needs grow, without needed added power supplies. Basically I need an enclosure that I would plop extra drive in as I need them, does anyone know of such a thing? I've looked but the devices I've found aren't really what I had in mind.
Thanks,
-Brian

hey Brian
sounds like you need to do some Media Management. although others may be using considerably more, 750GB is still a fair chunk of drive space.
do you regularly backup finished projects to tape, archive projects and non-timecode related media to DVD, clear off no longer needed media?
this isn't a bad intro to project and media management:
http://larryjordan.biz/articles/lj_archive.html
regarding the, pop in another drive idea. do you actually need the old drive and media to still be available? if not, an oft used technique these days is to use a FW or SATA disc enclosure ... if you budget in the cost of the disc with each job, then each new job or client can get there own hard disc, when the job is done you pop out the disc and put it on the shelf, and then simply replace with a new disc in the enclosure. these days disc space is dirt cheap.
hope it helps
Andy

Intermittent too many open files error and Invalid TLV error

Post Author: jam2008
CA Forum: General
I'm writing this up in the hopes of saving someone else a couple of days of hair-pulling...
Environment: Crystal Reports XI Enterprise / also runtime via Accpac ERP 5.4
Invalid TLV error in Accpac
"too many open files" error in event.log file
Situation:
Invalid TLV error occurs seemingly randomly on report created in CR Professional 11. Several days of troubleshooting finally lead to the following diagnosis:
This error occurs in a report that contains MORE THAN 1 bitmap image.
The error only shows up after 20 or more reports have been generated sequentially, WITHOUT CLOSING the application that is calling the report. In our case the Invoice Report dialog within Accpac. This same error occurred in a custom 3rd party VB.NET app that also called the report through an Accpac API.

after getting this message you need to do 2 things:
1. delete the current workspace because it contains some bad data in one the config files - failure to delete the workspace will result the error message to appear even if trying to upload a single file.
2. add to DTR files in groups - no more than 500 in a single add.
