TamyA:
am serving all pages with https, i changed all the path to relevant paths and added the lines of code to the .htaccess to redirect any page with http to https, not sure if the word force is the correct term here but that is what i did.

Could you be a little more specific? Besides the .htaccess file at the root of your store (assuming that is where it was placed, but not sure as ZC does not come with an .htaccess in the root of the store, therefore there is no .htaccess to which redirect lines are added.... The file must be created and the lines added to it...)
So where (what file(s)) were these paths modified?
