I have had lots of questions privately how I got Nova to work again. So, for all, here is what I did...
I went to Kep. Elements menu and on the Space-Track.org I unchecked all the boxes so that nothing is currently updating from Space-Track (until they fix Nova for SSL).
I then clicked on HTTP and changed the remove URL to www.amsat.org Then I removed everything in Remote Files and added the following AMSAT path: amsat/ftp/keps/current/nasa.all
Then I said OK and clicked back on Kep. Elements, Internet Update, Start Download and it grabbed the nasa.all keps from AMSAT and loaded them perfectly.
Hope this helps! Mike kb8zgl

Hallo Mike!
Thanks for your answer. Think I know how you did it, but would love to receive the path just in case, hi. NOVA is a nice program, and will keep on using it as long as I can!

Sven, I was able to get this to work. I had to go to the second page and remove the URLs and stop using Space-Track at least for now. I duplicated in Nova the path to the amsat files and use the http option in Nova to grab from Amsat.
Worked like a charm! I love NOVA, so glad it was able to be fixed.
I can post the path to the nova.all if you need later tonight.
Granted this only gets amateur satellites updated, but works great. I have not tried to fix the Space-Track URLs yet, but I believe they are also fixable.

Hi!
I know this question has been asked before!
Could someone give me a lesson on how to get the NOVA Internet Keps Update to work again from the Space-Track homepage.
There is no problems logging in on the Spacetrack homepage using my username and password.
