Why am I getting the message 'this connection is untrusted' when trying to access iCloud through Mozilla Firefox?

I use Mozilla Firefox and have never had difficulty before, but today I got 'this connection is untrusted' when trying to open iCloud.  There was no option to override this.
The Technical Details said:
www.icloud.com uses an invalid security certificate.
The certificate is not trusted because no issuer chain was provided.
(Error code: sec_error_unknown_issuer)
Help!

Clear your history/cookies and stuff like that on Firefox and then retry. If that doesn't work try restarting the computer or accessing iCloud via Google Chrome or Safari for the time being. I feel your pain, I love Firefox.

  • Why am I getting the error "This connection is untrusted" in Firefox on my new computer?

    Many familiar sites are giving me an error relating to certificates. See message below:
    "This Connection is Untrusted
    You have asked Firefox to connect
    securely to www.xxxxxxxxxxxx.com, but we can't confirm that your connection is secure.
    Normally, when you try to connect securely,
    sites will present trusted identification to prove that you are
    going to the right place. However, this site's identity can't be verified.
    What Should I Do?
    If you usually connect to
    this site without problems, this error could mean that someone is
    trying to impersonate the site, and you shouldn't continue."
    The same sites are still working perfectly on an older computer without these issues. They also work in other browsers, but Firefox is my default.

    As there have been no further responses to this thread, I've finally marked Google Chrome as my default browser on both computers.

  • I had a power failure and for a number of websites why do I now get the message "This Connection is Untrusted."

    After rebooting after the power failure when I go to new websites or even within some websites after clicking on a link the message box appears and I have to add a security exception to get past the message and see the link. I am using V4.0. I do not get that message on another computer using V 3.6.15.
    What can I do to reset the browser?

    John,
    That did it! I no longer get that message. The clock was set to the wrong day and time. So far it is keeping time correctly, but per your suggestion I will also check the battery.
    Thanks for the prompt and accurate help.

  • Why do I get the message "This disk cannot be used to start your computer" w/ upgrade to Mountain Lion from 10.6.8

    I have a MacBok pro later than 2007.  running 10.6.8 .  Downloaded Mountain Lion from app store.  When  I get to the install page I get the message "This disk cannot be used to start your computer."  What is the problem and what can be done?
    Thanks,

    I appreciate the prompt reply.  I saw that on the support community and it isn't giving me a solution.  
    The disk where the volume I need to upgrade is 250.06 GB Hitachi, the partition window (current) does not have a blue marker for the used data space, so there is no way to resize it.

  • Why do I get the message, "This content is no longer available" when I open Firefox?

    I get the message "The content you requested cannot be displayed right now. It may be temporarily unavailable, the link you clicked on may have expired, or you may not have permission to view this page." This happens every time I open a Facebook or Mafia Wars page in Firefox. I've removed any corrupt cookies, etc., and done all that troubleshooting. I even disabled all my plugins, to no effect. I'm afraid it's some sort of virus.

    Did you clear the cache as well as this can be caused by having content in the cache that has been expired?
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
    Are you using a bookmark to open these pages or does this also happen if you open the main page of those sites?
    You can also check the home page setting:
    *Tools > Options > General > Startup: Home page
    You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox profile folder that store session data in case pages are opened automatically when Firefox is started.
    Rename (or delete) the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox profile folder.
    *Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Multiple_profile_files_created
    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost and you will have to recreate them (make a note or bookmark them if possible).
    You can check the target line in the Firefox desktop shortcut (right-click: Properties) to make sure that nothing is appended after the path to the Firefox program.

  • HT1414 Why do I get a message "cannot connect to iTunes" when I try to update or buy apps?

    I cannot update apps or buy apps. I get a message "cannot connect to iTunes". Why?

    Saw this on another post.
    Applecare Senior Advisor Txx Bxxx (I have his contact info in an email he just sent) just confirmed with me that the problem people are having with the App Store not loading is an apple issue with there servers, ITS NOT YOUR IPAD so don't go restoring it!   It's not happening to everyone however but they are looking into it, its really hit or miss.

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    This works for some users. Not sure why.
    Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

  • What do I do with the message :this connection is untrusted". I get it on sites i use a lot

    I get this message when trying to log into my Yahoo mail account and now get it when accessing my cellular company's website. I'm concerned about overriding this, so need some input. I'm using Windows XP and of course Firefox

    The site doesn't send the intermediate certificate, so you can either make an exception, but better is to install the missing intermediate certificate.<br />
    Because the www.networking4all.com website show the certificate text of this certificate, you can copy the certificate text to the clipboard and paste this text in a text file and save the file as "NetworkSolutions.cer" (be sure to select All Files and not Text Files when saving in Notepad).
    You can install the intermediate certificate by importing this NetworkSolutions.cer file in the Firefox Certificate Manager.

  • Why do I get the message: additional fees may apply when downloading songs over cellular in my itunes on my iphone 5? Plus I see the cloud icon that is either greyed out or red

    I uploaded my old songs on my computer then I tried to sync them in my iphone's music library and I can't listen to the previously purchased songs... They either appear red with the cloud icon or greyed out... And I get the following message when I tap on them: additional fees may apply when downloading songs over cellular
    Anyone can help?

    Un-sync all your music to remove it from the device, then restart (hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go). Now re-sync your music.

  • Getting error message 'unable to connect to server' when trying to access iCloud

    Trying to access my iCloud account but keep getting error message 'unable to connect to server'. Need help please.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try the following.
    Go to Settings > iCloud > Delete Account (This removes your data from your device, but not from your account, it will be added back later).
    Restart the device.
    Sign in again (Settings > iCloud, don't use the 'Create New Apple ID' button).

  • An HTTPs site gets the nasty "This Connection is Untrusted" on Firefox 12 on Mac - however works on Firefox 12 on PC and all other major browsers on Mac and PC

    Works on all other browsers on both PC and Mac, only Firefox (and I have the latest version 12.0 on both PC and Mac) has the issue, which of course will make everyone seeing this scary popup click the "get me out of here" button.
    What is causing this issue to happen on the very specific setup of Firefox 12 on Mac and not anywhere else?

    Does it mention a cause in the technical details why the certificate is untrusted?
    You may have a corrupted "VeriSign International Server CA - Class 3" certificate.
    You can check that certificate in the Certificate Manager to see if it OK.
    *Firefox > Preferences > Advanced : Encryption: Certificates - View Certificates > Authorities
    Stored intermediate certificates show as "Software Security Device" in the "Security Device" column in the Certificate Manager.<br />
    Build-in root certificates show as "Builtin Object Token" on the Authorities tab in the Certificate Manager, so do not remove those.<br />
    You can try to remove the currently stored intermediate certificate to make Firefox store a new version.
