Why are google and youtube inconsistent with encrypted transmission of pages?

Typically I get the padlock icon when I am on a google or youtube page but sometimes -- particularly recently -- I get the exclamation point with the further message that "the connection to this website is not fully secure because it contains unencrypted elements (such as images)." However, invariably when I refresh the page the padlock icon instead of the exclamation point appears. I don't understand why this happens since nothing otherwise on the page appears to have changed, and yet the refresh switches it from the exclamation point to the padlock icon. I'd appreciate any insight that someone can offer.

Some pages may have rotating ads to insecure pages, so you may get other links if you refresh the page.
You can open the Web Console (Firefox/Tools > Web Developer) to check if there are (red) lines with [mixed]to see if that helps to identify the mixed content.

  • Why are photos and videos taken with my iPhone 6 not recognized in iPhoto?

    My Mac and my iPhone 6 are both up to date but I still can't upload photos and videos to iPhoto from my iPhone 6. It gives me the message that they are in an unrecognizable format. I have restarted my Mac and tried selecting a few photos at a time to see if there were a couple that stalled the whole process but I get the error message every time. What can I do?

    Does it happen with all pictures, or just those taken in low light? If its just low light what you are seeing is "noise" in the image, and there isn't much you can do about it. The resolution of the back camera is much higher than the resolution of the screen, so you should not see grain anywhere within the zoom range of the viewing screen - unless you took the picture using zoom. As the camera does not have optical zoom, when you zoom before snapping all you are doing is using less of the sensor, and that can result in a grainier image.

  • Why does my computer create web connections to addresses in the Amazon, Google and Youtube range when I start Firefox?

    I think I already disabled all the updating functions, yet, SOMETIMES when I start Firefox, (with about:blank), my network monitor shows one to five connections to IP addresses mostly in the 74.125.225.x, 74.125.227.x, 74.125.228.x, and 72.21.x.x ranges. Those ranges include Google, Amazon, and Youtube.
    I use Kaspersky, and have scanned multiple times for malware, and even had their technical support look into my computer. They see no malware. It is the Kaspersky Network Monitor that revealed the problem.
    As I find them happening, I try to jot down the addresses, (quickly, because some of these connections only last a second or two), then add those to a firewall rule I created to try to combat the problem. Yet, next time I start, new addresses are "attacking". Of course, some get away, because I don't get the address jotted down before it goes away. At one point I used masking that ended up keeping me from Google and Youtube, so I have to add the addresses individually, and my block list in that one rule is 13 items long now. The only IPs not in those ranges are 23.5.251.27, and 173.194.46.5. Not sure where those go.
    I used to get attacked by addresses in the range that includes Amazon ... 72.21.x.x. I have a separate firewall rule for them that has 33 addresses being blocked.
    I should not have to do all that. Firefox should start and just sit there quietly until I start clicking or typing in it. This has been happening in Firefox versions going back to 11. May have gone on before that, but I wasn't tracking it then.
    Also, it doesn't always happen, or, more precisely, with addresses I have not already blocked, (because my only way to know it's happening is when the connections are allowed to be made). It does not always happen right after Firefox is up, but sometimes several minutes later. I have started Firefox and just sat and watched the network monitor without doing anything in Firefox, and have seen this happen up to 15 minutes after I start Firefox ... mostly just two or three minutes when there's a delay at all.

    Firefox does not do anything but sit on about:blank after I start it as long as I have a firewall rule enabled that completely blocks these subnets:
    74.125.222.0/24
    74.125.227.0/24
    74.125.228.0/24
    173.194.46.0/24
    173.194.115.0/24
    173.194.121.0/24
    64.233.171.0/24
    54.230.90.0/24
    54.230.88.0/24
    72.21.194.0/24
    72.21.195.0/24
    72.21.215.0/24
    207.171.163.0/24
    Otherwise, Fire fox creates connections to one to five addresses in those ranges. Note that there are more than 5 subnets above, but usually three connections satisfies whatever purpose these connections are being made for. If I had some links or whatever that is causing these connections, I would expect all of them would come up every time.
    Also, these connections do not start immediately upon starting Firefox, they wait up to 15 minutes to start ... fifteen minutes of just sitting idle ... no actions on my part that could possibly initiate them. Usually these start within three minutes. A typical ploy of malware is to wait until no one is looking, or the until there's a forest to put their tree in so it won't be noticed.
    While the above rules are in place, I do not have access to Amazon, Youtube, or Google, (or any of the various blog sites and services sponsored by Google, including Google Maps and Gmail). That list may not be complete, as I have other firewall rules in place that mainly block individual addresses.
    It seems to me as simple as; figure out who owns those subnets, and you have your bad guys. Then go after them.
    It's true that I have a bookmarks to Google, Gmail, and Youtube, but these are not "active" bookmarks nor RSS feeds. I have not voluntarily gone to Amazon on this computer.
    The traffic being transmitted is unknown. It is usually not extremely large amounts of data ... less than a meg, but I have seen close to a Gig transmitted out of my computer, and over 400 meg transmitted to my computer, when I was not paying attention to block the offender. Even if it's small amounts, things like cookies, path structures, configuration settings, histories, etc. do not involve a lot of data, but, to me, represent a security breach, if someone decides to look at them unsolicited by me, not unlike your landlord, mortgage holder, or neighborhood police officer walking into your home while you're not there, and taking pictures of, or simply inventorying your belongings.
    It is VERY much like some sort of backdoor malware. No malware is detected on my computer.
    I looked at the suggestion above for OS changes for logging HTTP activity, but the author neglected to include instructions for backing out these changes after using them. If this were to create more jewels in a drawer the thief has access to, reformatting and restoring my drive is not the kind of back out process I enjoy. Therefore it would be foolish to apply them. To me it would be like bungee diving with no bungee. Fun until you hit the bottom. Give me the bungee, let me make sure it's short enough, then I'll dive.

  • Why are iCal alarms coming up with a black rectangle?

    Why are iCal alarms coming up with a black rectangle? I'm running 10.3.9 and iCal v. 1.5.2. This started after I did software updates this week.
    iMac   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    I solved it in my case by going to System Preferences>Internet & Network>QuickTime>Advanced, then clicking the checkbox to Enable Flash. I also had to quit and restart iCal.
    I think the Quicktime715 update that recently came out had something to do with it.
    It seems that the black box is supposed to be a movie of a vibrating alarm clock, and apparently that movie uses Flash.
    I hope this fix works for you too.

  • Hypertext links are not always preserved from Word to PDF, using Aperçu or Adobe, depending on OS 10 or Lion. Why? This generally works perfectly in Windows. Why are Apple and Adobe unable to correctly handle links when converting from Word to PDF?

    Hypertext links are not always preserved from Word to PDF, using Aperçu or Adobe, depending on OS 10 or Lion. Why? This generally works perfectly in Windows. Why are Apple and Adobe unable to correctly handle links when converting from Word to PDF?
    Depending on the system version, and Office Word version:
    - a pure URL link starting with http or even www sometimes works in PDF, either produced by Aperçu or Adobe, sometimes does not work;
    - other kind of links where the text under display is not a URL, never work!
    I like everything with Apple computers and software, except PDF generation. Output files are usually bigger in size, and no better quality, than under Windows. Furthermore, it is weird that something as common as hyperlinks does not work correctly!
    I related this question with Mac OS X Snow Leopard, but the problem is still there with Mac OS Lion.
    This problem seems to have been around for years, without any proper solution from Apple and/or Adobe! To me, this is very embarrassing!

    Greetings NoNameGiven,
    If I understand the problem correctly (I’m not sure I do) you would prefer ‘iii’ to be read as “eye eye eye” rather than “three”? The alt text property is the only way that I know of to make this happen. Hope this helps.

  • Why are my fields not moving with my Dynamic stamp ? Only the artwork appears

    Why are my fields not moving with my Dynamic stamp ? Only the artwork appears

    Sounds like you're a candidate for Lightroom...based on the time you don't
    want to spend in Photoshop.
    Photoshop install media is likely created in large batches, perhaps in a
    foreign country, so it's understandable that you get Photoshop 11.0.0 is on
    the media.
    I don't know as I would use ProPhotoRGB as my working space in Photoshop.  I
    was merely suggesting that you look at your color settings to make sure
    things were the same on both machines.
    How do you know your actions are the same?  Did you copy the action
    recording from one computer to the other, or did you merely record the same
    steps on each one?  Have you compared the details of each action step in the
    Actions Palette to make sure they are the same?  The symptoms still sound
    like something different than sRGB being the output color-space, or the fact
    it isn't embedded on one or the other of the computers.
    How are you viewing the JPG when it looks the same or different than the
    RAW?  Are you looking at the side-by-side in Photoshop, or side-by-side in
    Bridge, or are you using a mixture of viewers, one Adobe, and one not?  And
    are you using the Canon Codec on Vista or not?  The Canon Codec would be
    showing the camera-preview in the RAW not the RAW adjustments that Adobe has
    done.
    While the OS shouldn't be causing a difference in how the action is run, a
    difference between OSes may make a difference in the processing to show up.
    The camera profile associated with a RAW file is visible in the
    third-from-right tab in ACR over at the right.  The one with the little
    DSLR-camera icon on the tab.
    Can you attach the two JPGs on a reply, here, or if not, upload a ZIP of the
    two JPGs and the RAW to a file-sharing site like http://www.rapidshare.com/
    and post the download link(s)?

    Hi,
    why are not all photos taken with an iphone available on the icloud, even that i made some fotos at the same time?
    Some of these photos are afterwards available on fotostream others not.
    Thx

    If they are in photos view then they are in an event unless you have a corrupted library
    How are you"merging" the photos?
    most common issue is either bad sort (view menu ==> sort events) or bad camera dates
    select one and show event to see the event

  • Google and Youtube not accessible intermittently from FiOS internet

    Ever since the beginning of 2015, I have the problem accessing Google and Youtube. This happens intermittently and it now happens almost everyday. While I can't access Google and Youtube, every other website works fine.
    And I know it is not Google and Youtube's problem as I can access both websites from my phone cellular network.
    I am on FiOS 50/50 and still using the stock router MI424WR-GEN2
    Firmware version 20.21.2 ( I just upgraded it recently after I start having the problem which doesn't make any different. )
    Everytime this happens, I have to release the public interface IP and power cycle the router so that it gets new public IP( the power cycle may not actually needed but I just do it) . and it will kind of solve the problem. But now that it seems to happen almost everyday, it is becoming a pain now.
    Does anyone have the same problem as I do at all?
    Or anyone has a permanent solution to this?
    Thanks!
    Ken.

    I got a nice little workaround for ya, provided you speak English.
    When you load the youtube page, click the help button. This should bring up the support page, which seems to load correctly. For me, anyways.
    Then, assuming step one went as planned, in the upper right corner, you should see a small globe that has the word 'Site:' next to it. Click it, and a dropdown menu appears. From here, click the United Kingdom option, then try loading the video from the UK server.
    That's what worked for me.
    Keep me informed?

  • My Safari suddenly stopped loading Facebook, Google and YouTube. Why? I downloaded Firefox and it's working really well! What's going on?

    Over the past two or three weeks, my Safari has bogged down. It will load most Web pages just fine, but YouTube, Google and Facebook just won't launch. I managed to use it to download Firefox and it's working great. Safari is still a no-go.

    Hi Jake ...
    Those three sites require the Flash plugin.
    Quit Safari.
    Uninstall the Flash plugin then reinstall new >  Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
    Very important to uninstall the currently installed plugin first.
    Launch Safari From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache
    Now try one of those sites.
    BTW... if you have the ClickToFlash extension installed, that can prevent Flash based video from streaming. It can also be installed as a plugin in /Library/Internet-Plug-Ins.
    And check to see if Safari is running in 32 bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. If the box next to:  Open in 32 bit mode  is selected, deselect, quit then relaunch Safari.
    If uninstalling and reinstalling Flash didn't help, it could be a cookies issue.
    Back to the Safari menu bar again, click Safari > Preferences then select the Security tab.
    Click Show Cookies. Then click Remove All > Done
    Quit then relaunch Safari to test.
