After a update for iPhoto and something else on 4/26/2011, my MacBook Pro got a time reset to the year 2000, and lots of request windows of some program access pop up to ask for "allow". Anyone seeing this? How do I resolve it?
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.7)
"my MacBook Pro got a time reset to the year 2000, and lots of request windows of some program access pop up to ask for "allow". "
Where do you note the reset to 2000? What program is asking for "allow"?
Thanks for reply sig!
There was a time warning popped right after I turned on my Mac... It said I might have problems for some of my programs to work because my time was set before 2008. And then I check on the date/time setting, it became June something in 2000... (I bought this MacBook Pro only a year ago!!!)
After I clicked "OK" for that time warning box, there were about 3-4 programs with weird names asking for "allow." Can't remember all of them, but after I click on deny for all of them, the internet didn't work at all. So I restarted the system, everything showed up again, but this time I clicked one "allow" for the last request from "awacsd", and then the internet worked.
I restarted the Mac again, and this time nothing showed up at all, and the time was back on track... Turn on the iPhoto and it looked fine... I really don't know what happened to this Mac... (shake head...)
Start with a google search of, "awacsd."
Apple Wide Area Connectivity Service Daemon. It is a function of MobileMe.
Thanks sig, I did that and found a lot of information. It's just odd to me that, why would this happen after an update... I have been a MobileMe user for 6 months and this never happened before...
I personally think Apple must have done something wrong in the update code and messed up my Mac. Hope they will release something and get this corrected... (sorry just a complain...)
Program update error!!??
