How to get rid of a popup "to accept incoming network connections.

Since the upgrade to El Capitan, I get a popup message asking "do you want the"?. " App"to accept incoming network connections? a yellow container triangle one exclamation point.

It is to appear with multiple applications.  I have searched through all system settings and can't find any way to disable it.  2 sec Deny or Allow always generates it popping up again when the application is restarted.  No idea how to disable this?

The specific option is managed by your security (as indicated by the message) preferences: preferences system-> Security & privacy-> firewall.

Under Firewall Options, you have the ability to control/deny incoming connections for individual applications.

The approach of brute force to stop the messages would be to disable the firewall completely, but that wouldn't be better. Instead, it may be sufficient to add the word to the list of allowed applications (although it is not clear to me at this moment why Word would need incoming connections, or why access is not complete this list).

    In the Muse is it normal to get this message? "Do you think the application 'Adobe Muse CC 2014.app' to accept incoming network connections?

    Hi Kay,

    This warning is not come muse. It must come from your firewall or anti-virus software. In my view, that muse added to the firewall exceptions list should solve the problem.

  • How to get rid of a popup offering to remember my password that appears in the upper left corner?

    Yes, this popup is annoys me no end! It appears each time I fill in a password anywhere! It is more or less said: "Do you remember this password?". first of all I didn't know what program did this, but now I know that it is Mozilla Firefox. Why so many of (and undesirable too) want to pop-up windows to 'help' when in fact what they do is irritate the person and not even identify the program. It is a parody of the worst kind! You do not?

    If anyone knows how to get rid of it forever, please let me know? Thank you very much! Adelaa

    If you want to just disable this for a specific domain, you can click the drop-down list and click "never for this site". Otherwise, you can go to the Security section of the firefox preferences (enter ' subject: preferences #security ' in the address bar) and uncheck "remember passwords for sites".

  • How to get rid of brush popup when right click on - pen Wacom of CS5 Windows 7

    I had this annoying problem with unwanted pop-up brush on click (mouse and pen) right before and found an answer, but can not this time.

    No, it not there nothing inside Photoshop to change this behavior - because this is the expected behavior.

    If you see the brush picker when you do not expect, then you are probably hitting the button on the stylus when you don't realize. You can change the assignment of the keys in the controls of Wacom, so it won't right click and so will not show the brush picker.

  • Adware? And how to get rid of?

    Since last week when I'm redirected to a game at random navigation site. First of all, I thought it was just something to do with Firefox (the browser I used), but then the same thing happened with other browsers too. I then installed Opera to judge if it would happen again and Yes, it happened. Then I tried to reinstall the whole OS, hoping that would solve the problem. There can be no. I always get redirected to a site "yu0123456". How to get rid of this? I installed AdGuard so it blocks me enter the site, but still not open tabs. After the reset of the operating system (I also erased the hard drive), I did not visit malicious sites. I just downloaded programs I had before that happens again (steam, Spotify, discord). I tried to scan my Mac with Malware Antibytes, but he found nothing. If it's harmless, I could live with that, but it's very irritaring. If there is a chance he could phis my information, so I want that he removed as soon as possible. What can I do?

    Thanks in advance!

    Adware is usually not malicious. Its purpose is to push ads into your face. Adware makers get a fraction of a payment of one hundred whenever an ad is shown. That's their motivation.

    You say wipe you the drive, but if you restored a backup Time Machine or Migration Wizard to restore your applications and the user account, you managed that by copying the problem at the back.

    MalwareBytes for Mac can't catch everything. The adware manufacturers are constantly changing which moved things and which appoints the files have. It's a job without end for manufacturers of MalwareBytes to catalogue these items, so they can be found and removed. But of course he is not hurt anything to use as it can remove a lot of problems for you, leaving only the new elements, unknown to locate and remove manually.

    Depending on where you have steam, Spotify and discord, the installers may have been (and often are) responsible for the installation of adware and you want to install.
