I am starting to get failure messages on Safari even when trying to enter Apple forum pages on my MacPro running High Sierra. I even had to log in on Chrome to get into this forum! How do you fix this, excluding a system upgrade. (Planning on going to Mojave when my metal graphics card gets installed.)
Hey lyndonr,
To clarify, what type of failure message are you seeing? Here's a resource to help If you can’t open a Safari window on Mac.
If you're unable to load web pages, have you tried clearing your history or restarting your internet hardware? We look forward to hearing back from you.
Take care.
Thank you. This solved my problem and I am on this forum this time in Safari!
Followup question if I may. I have a 2007 laptop, which I use and like very much, but it is stuck at Lion and now I am getting the same kind of messages that I was getting in Safari on High Sierra. Is there a certificate for that issue, or will this same one I used here work on my laptop?
Thank again for your help!
You are welcome. I don't know if the solution would work in macOS Lion; I have no way to test it on my side.
I would suggest creating a new posting so that contributors can see is as a new/fresh posting and provide their insights and solutions.
I did some more checking on my side. I rebooted my High Sierra iMac that uses macOS 10.13.6. I had no issues connecting to this forum (without ever installing the certificate update.)
I wonder if you are using the latest version of macOS Lion. Head to the App store and see if any update is available for your laptop.
Done both. No change or improvement.
There are times some of Apple Services are not functioning or malfunctioning. Try check the Status page
I just found this discussion with the solution: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/251211674
This is the message I am seeing:
But I will check out your suggestions.
Thank-you
This is an authentication error message. Try to sign out of Apple ID, restart your Mac (for good measure) and sign back in.
I cannot sign in on Safari, but I can sign in and do everything with the Chrome browser. I suspect Apple Services are running fine.
