How do I address this issue in OS X?

 

I've tried resetting Safari, cleaning history/cookies, etc.

 

Thx!

    Hello Linc,

     

    April 13, 2015

     

    For years you've been a most valuable asset to me here at Apple.Com.

     

    I REALLY wish I could speak with you on the phone, because this is a little heavy.

     

    But for now I am TRYING to find the instructions/article that appears when you click the question mark "?".... that appears at the bottom of the drop down message which reads as follows....To see an image of it...the scroll halfway down and someone named WildBill posted an image of the drop down that is associated with the subject of this thread.....One of the 2 links below will show you a picture of the drop down and question mark.

     

    FIX for: "Safari can't verify the identity of the website" - certificate not valid

     

    Below is something that may or not be relative....but I just wanted you to see a photo of the drop down warning,...I think the one ABOVE is the one....the one below I'm not sure.....I am so tired right now.

    Below is an article apple sent me but this is not what I was looking for

     

    OS X: Keychain Access asks for keychain "login" after changing login password - Apple Support

     

    There is a question mark that when you click on it sends you to an article/instructions on the side telling you what to do, but since I no longer get this pop up I can't find THAT article/instructions.

     

    I'm pretty sure the headline of the article read something like this.

     

    "What to do if Safari can't verify a security certificate as valid".....something like that.

     

    The reason I need to see those instructions again is I need to retrace my steps to make sure I didn't make a mistake when I was in Keychain Access.

     

    I called Apple and they didn't seemed interested in helping me.

     

    Perhaps you can.

     

    Thanks Linc,

     

    Apple Dreamer

     

    P.S....How do I know if you respond to this?.....Should of I left my phone number or email address?
