What is wrong when I keep getting "Secure Connection Failed" message?

Why am I getting the msg "Secure Connection Failed" on most sites I used to be able to access before power outage?

Rename (or delete) secmod.db (secmod.db.old) and maybe also cert8.db (cert8.db.old) in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder] in case there is a problem with the files.
The file ''cert8.db'' stores your user certificates, so if you have user certificates then you may want to export them now and import them after having removed cert8.db.
See Tools > Options > Advanced > Encryption: Certificates: View Certificates
If that works then you can delete the renamed files or undo the changes if you want to revert the process.

I am trying to access va.gov and keep getting secure connection failed message, this is a Veterans Administration site, WHY?

this is a United States government website. (OK you can stop laughing now) Specifically a Veterans Administration website for veterans to monitor and keep up on their health status , keep in touch with their Dr and other related topics. does this mean there is no security document for this site. how can I stop getting this message?

Are you having this problem on your Windows 8.1 system?
There can be many causes of certificate errors. If you expand the Technical Details section of the error page (assuming there is one), what is the explanation there? You could copy/paste that section into a reply.
I don't know my way around the site to investigate further. This page works for me: https://www.myhealth.va.gov/index.html

You may have to shut your computer off and pull the power adapter from both your ISP's Modem and your Router and wait 5 minutes and restart them in the following order.
1st your ISP's Modem and wait a minute to get your signal and lights.
2nd do the same with your Router and again you have to wait the minute.
Last restart your computer and boot in OSX use Safari.

[ Mac 10.9.3 / Indesign CC update fail / Premiere update fail / Adobe Media Encoder 7.2.2 update fail ]
Adobe Media Encoder was the problem for me. There's no separate uninstaller for AME. My ID CC and Premiere couldn't be updated (for the AME7.2.2 update as the only change). MCMHMPEGVideoCodec.framework seemed to be the factor.
I uninstalled Premiere (only), after having manually removed MCMHMPEGVideoCodec.framework from inside AME. After boot I installed it again and voilà, both (ID & Premiere) updates went trough fine. The MCMHMPEGVideoCodec.framework was on place inside AME too.

I can log into my iCloud account on my iphone but when I try to log in on my pc I keep getting a connection error message. Any ideas?

Same problem. I can see the itunes store so not a problem with windows firewall. The account is active on my iphone so i know i am not locked out. I can connect the PC to my iphone so i know itunes is working ok. It is just logging into itunes on this pc which doesn't work. Only thing I can think of is that the email address I use for my apple id has been offline for a while and is working again now, I'm wondering whether this has been the case for others who are having this issue?

Post subject: NSURLErrorDomain error -1100 in OS X 10.8
If you check for software updates using the App Store in OS X 10.8 and get "NSURLErrorDomain error -1100" the problem may be with your Software Update preferences. This is particularly likely if you were using a custom Apple Software Update server. To solve the problem, quit the App Store, move the following two files (if present) to the trash, restart, and only then rerun App Store updates:
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist.lockfile

New to photoshop. Keep getting an "Import Failed" message

I'm trying to put videos from a Panisonic HDD video camera on to DVDs but keep getting an "Import Failed" message everytime I try. Why? What am I not doing?

I suspect that you wiil be using the Adobe Premiere Elements software for editing video in order to create that DVD of your video. There is a separate forum at
http://forums.adobe.com/community/premiere_elements
I recommed that you post your video import question on that forum because that is where you will find people who use the video related functions of the Adobe Elements software.

In Firefox version 37.0 getting Secure Connection Failed config parameter version.fallback-limit set to 3. Does this support TLS 1.0 .

In FF 37.0 getting secure connection failed connecting to a website. Works fine in previous version. Config parameter version.fallback-limit default setting is 3. In previous version the default setting was 1. Does the setting version.fallback-limit to 3 mean only TLS1.2 is supported. Any help is appreciated.
Secure Connection Failed
The connection to xxxx.xxx.com was interrupted 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.
Thx,

The website may try to fallback to TLS 1.0 in a way that is no longer allowed in current releases or may be using a deprecated cipher suite.
You can open the <b>about:config</b> page via the location/address bar and use its search bar to locate this pref:
*security.tls.insecure_fallback_hosts
You can double-click the line to modify the pref and add the domain (full domain) to this pref.
If there are already websites (domains) in this list then add a comma and the new domain (no spaces).
You should only see domains separated by a comma in the value column.

Why with Firefox 33.0 do I get "secure connection failed" when I bring up my banking site, but it doesn't happen using Firefox 32.0.3?

The website comes up fine but "secure connection failed" shows in the space where I'm supposed to put my account number. (I'm prevented from putting my account number in that field.) This computer is running Win 7 Pro. The older version of Firefox on another computer with Win XP has no such problem with the website, nor does the IE browser on this computer.

One possibility is: Some users had problems with secure sites starting in Firefox 31 related to the new PKIX security component, and worked around it by disabling it. Starting in Firefox 33, it can no longer be disabled, and that setting is ignored.
Are you comfortable posting the address of the login page so others could see whether they have the same experience with the form?

On attempting to connect to my router's configuration interface, I get Secure Connection Failed

When connecting to my local router's configuraton webpage, I get a "Secure Connection Failed" Error message. "The page you are trying to view can not be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified." No SSL error is shown, so I am unable to track it further. I just did a full distribution upgrade but it appears that Seamonkey also exhibits this behavior as well. Restarting safe mode did nothing, so I am at a loss.

Sounds that your router doesn't send a full certificate chain that ends with a Firefox built-in root certificate.
Check out why the site is untrusted (click "Technical Details to expand that section) and if this is caused by a missing intermediate certificate then see if you can install this intermediate certificate from another source.
You can retrieve the certificate and check details like who issued certificates and expiration dates of certificates.
*Click the link at the bottom of the error page: "I Understand the Risks"
Let Firefox retrieve the certificate: "Add Exception" -> "Get Certificate".
*Click the "View..." button and inspect the certificate and check who is the issuer.
You can see more Details like intermediate certificates that are used in the Details pane.

When trying to update iPhone 4 to IOS 4.3, keep getting "network connection timeout" message. Help!

Using iTunes and my iPhone 4 IOS 4.1 I keep getting a "network connection timed out" message. At a lost on what to due.
Any help appreciated.

HUGELY FRUSTRATING!! Getting a "network connection timed out" error after waiting three hours for the download to complete is unacceptable. Had this problem running Windows 7 on an HP wireless laptop, IE 8, and Microsoft Security Essentials as my anti-virus. I had just updated my iTunes to the latest version so I didn't want to wipe out the whole thing and re-download as some boards suggested (I'd also tried that last year on another computer that did the same thing on an iPod update - didn't work). I also did not want to totally disable my anti-virus program.
After reading many discussions online about the problem, here's what worked for me on the first try. You need to add some Apple and Verisign addresses to your Trusted Sites in Internet Explorer:
In Internet Explorer go to Tools, Internet Options, Security tab. Click on Trusted sites, then click the Sites button. I also unchecked the "disable server verification (https) for all sites in this zone" box (under the box that will show your trusted sites). Here's what I added. (The underlining here is not mine - done by this site reading my entries as internet addresses. They won't underline when you enter them in trusted sites):
http://albert.apple.com
http://ax.itunes.apple.com
http://deimos3.apple.com
http://evintl-ocsp.verisign.com
http://evsecure-ocsp.verisign.com
http://gs.apple.com
http://itunes.apple.com
http://phobos.apple.com
Worked like a charm!! This list was culled from several posts from several different discussion forums. I then closed out IE, restarted my computer (just in case :-) ),and updated through iTunes without a problem!

I keep getting a connection failed error message from mail every time my computer goes to sleep, is shut down and/or I change network connections?

Mail mail was working fine for months but now I keep getting an error message every time my computer shuts down or even goes to sleep. I get the exclamation point error and when I try to reconnect it always falis. My internet connection is fine and nothing else is losing connections. The only way to fix it is to shut down mail completely and restart which fixes the connection every time, but it's getting really frustrating have to constantly shut down mail and restart it just to use my email.

Bump ???

Keep getting "Server connection interrupted" message

I went down in the basement with my Macbook to do some work on my Dell desktop and I keep getting the "Server connection interrupted" with a disconnect button.

Both my iPad 1 and 3 have done this, to a point that all websites were no longer accessible!!! Yet, my iMac worked like a charm, and our Ooma VOiP box in WiFi mode worked fine. I tried lots of different things, without any of them working.
I searched the whole web, not just these discussions, and didn't find any solution at all.
So I just reset my Airport Extreme to factory defaults, and everything is back to normal now! Sheesh! Hope this helps a lot of people!
