Pop-up window: Apple wants to make changes

Same here: Online, and the browser disappeared, then it asked me for this message. Took 3 times to cancel it, just like everyone else.

... I also restarted the machine after deleting the databases.

Have you had any updates? Or figured out what the issue is?

I installed Malwarebytes and ran a scan; it showed some malware on my system. I deleted those files and have not had these pop ups since; that was three days ago. So... It's malware.

Has not come back. It was most likely Malwear.

.

I tried what tammylig suggested. When I looked at the plug-in panel is says Java is off". What now?

Thank you! That was very helpful.

It came back again after I went to CBS's website. I noticed another user went to a news site and got it. Had to install Malwarebytes. It did find two items and now the problem has gone away.

I hope the number that you called for Apple support was 800MYAPPLE. If you use the same password on any other websites you might want to change it

It happened to me in both Safari and Chrome. I ran the suggested Malwarebytes and it found 3 threats and deleted them.

I have the same issue, but I have plug-ins disabled. Other fixes? I am NOT giving it my password.

Have you tried running Malwarebytes?

I used to get this every day. I installed Malwarebytes 4 days ago, deleted the suspect items and have not had the pop-up since.

I have this too so please keep me posted. Im not very technical, so the easier the instructions the better for me, cheers
