 Just received what looks like a spam posing as Apple iTunes, about updating 
 account info.
 
 It has two email addresses of the sender: Apple iTunes 
 ituens.i...@appel.co.nl
 and apple.itu...@platonos.targetpoint.gr
 
 I am about to ditch it.

Good plan!:-)

Re: Push notifications on MacMini server

2013-09-02 Thread Ronni Brown
Hi Brian,

Has this problem been resolved... as I have just noticed it on WAMUG?
These certificates are used by the Apple Push Notification Service (APNS).
Push Notifications are used to do things like immediately alert you of new mail 
on your iPhone (rather than have the iPhone polling every few minutes to check 
if there is new mail).

I take it you are using Mac Mini Server with Mountain Lion server on it.

If you are still having the problem... first try this:
 
1. Go to Server App
 
2. Select the Server Name - Uncheck the Enable Push Notifications
 
3. As soon as you do a window opens stating your certificate has expired and 
you're given the option to renew.
 
4. The iTunes user ID is listed that you used to create them to begin with and 
it prompts you for your password.
 
5. It automaticaly renews the certificates and the expired certificates that 
were in keychain are no longer expired.
---
If that doesn't fix the Apple Push Notification Service certificate expiration
You could try this:
The certificates are also stored in the System keychain. Delete the expired 
ones by:

1. Open Keychain Access (in /Applications/Utilities)
2. Select the System keychain (top left frame)
3. Click on the Expires column to sort on Expires
4. Then select the soon-to-expire APSP:... certificates and
5. Hit the delete key to delete them (you will be asked for an admin account 
and password)
 
NOTE: you may have to select Show Expired Certificates in the View menu if 
the certificates have already expired.

Cheers,
Ronni

 Hi all
 I have a MacMini server and must have set up Apple Push Notification ages ago 
 and now I. Am receiving these reminders:
 Final notice-Tomorrow: Apple Push Notification Service certificate expiration
 Do I need them at all?
 Yes, there two iPhones in the house, a MacBookPro, and an iPad that use a 
 common calendar.
 So, should I dig around on the server, really only my iTune connected to my 
 tv, or just let it slip?
