  • HT4597 Someone reset my iPhone and it was not me is there a way to find out how they were able to access my info?

    Someone reset my iPhone and it was not me is there a way to find out how they were able to access my info?

    There are two ways to reset an iPhone, 1)  the user actually using the iphone can perform a reset from Settings, and 2) a user to knows the iphone's iCloud ID and password and do a remote reset. 
    I'm assuming you didn't personally reset it while on the iPhone, so my question is ...  does anyone else know your iCloud ID and password?  Have you set up multiple devices (perhaps belonging to other members of your family - something you generally shouldn't do, if you don't want to sync the same data to all devices in the family) and used the same iCloud ID on all of them?  Perhaps a family member or a "friend" of a member used Find My iPhone to locate yours and remote wiped it.

  • ATTENTION!! RECEIVED FRAUDULENT EMAIL PRETENDING TO BE APPLE!! I received an email informing of a purchase made on my account and telling me to change my password if did not purchase the item, which I had not. I have received valid emails from Apple

    ATTENTION!! RECEIVED FRAUDULENT EMAIL PRETENDING TO BE APPLE!! I received an email informing of a purchase made on my account and telling me to change my password if did not purchase the item, which I had not. I have received valid emails from Apple in the past asking letting me know a purchase had been made and asking if I had made the purchase, but the item listed has alway been a purchase that I had made. Since I had received similar emails in the past, I didn't think anything of it. Because I had not purchased the item listed, I immediately clicked on the link in order to change my password, which has been suggested in authentic emails i had received from Apple in the past. The site I was redirected to was exactly the same as the Apple site where you go to change your password. I entered my userID and password and it stated a verification email would be sent, if it was not sent click "resend email." When I did not receive an email, after about 10 seconds I went to the Apple site and followed the SAME EXACT step on pages that were IDENTICAL to the FRAUDULENT website I apparently had just been at. When I clicked "Send verification email," I DID receive an email within seconds, which had a special link that brought me to a page where I could change my password, which I did. I later compared a legitimate email to the FRAUDULENT email and I DID FIND A DIFFERENCE, BUT IT WAS ALMOST UNNOTICEABLE unless you were really, really looking.  I doubt it would be noticed by anyone if not comparing it closely to a real email. THE DIFFERENCE WAS AT THE BOTTOM OF THE AUTHENTIC EMAIL, THERE WERE THREE LINKS THAT COULD BE SELECTED - My Apple ID/Support/Privacy Policy. ON THE FRAUDULENT EMAIL THESE LINKS WERE NOT PRESENT!!! Just today I received an email from Apple stating my password had been changed today. I did not change my password today. When I changed after getting the fake email, I did not think about my SECURITY QUESTIONS!!! If you forget your Apple password, you are able to answer the security questions in place of your ID and you get a confirmation email. Even though I changed my password within a one minute when I did not get a confirmation email with a link to change my password right away and I went dierctly to Apple's site, apparently it was enough time to take all the information on my account - INCLUDING MY DEBIT CARD NUMBER, WHICH HAD BEEN REQUIRED WHEN I INITIALLY SET UP THE ACCOUNT!!! Today I received a call from VISA FRAUD PROTECTION asking about strange activity on my account and stating they were concerned and wanted to ensure I had used the account. I HAD NOT, AND ALL THE MONEY IN MY BANK ACCOUNT HAD BEEN STOLEN!!!!! I am writing this in hopes that many people will see it and NOT FALL VICTIM TO THIS SCAM. Please pay close attention to any emails you supposedly receive from Apple - If the links "MY APPLE ID/SUPPORT/PRIVACY POLICY," PLEASE DO NOT ASSUME IT IS AN AUTHENTIC EMAIL FROM APPLE. I suggest you immediately forward the email to apple, which I didn't do because this happened days ago. Nothing was taken from my money that was already on the Apple account, and nothing had been taken from my checking account. I guess I assumed there had been something wrong with the link in the email directing me to where I could change my password, plus I had gone to the valid Apple website and changed my password for real, and I guess I was thinking that changing my password would prevent someone from being able to acces my account info. PLEASE DO NOT FALL VICTIM TO THIS SCAM AS I DID!!!!

    No need for alarm. There are several folks a day posting like threads. Most folks know these phishing attempts for what they are and merely delete with prejudice.
    To the bottom line... if you wish - and I am sure Apple will take notice - you should FORWARD the email to [email protected] and delete.

    2nd generation ipod touch is pretty much no good anymore?  It is not able to upgrade to iOS5.1 and so will not work with many Apps in the iTunes store?  Is there a way to find out if the App will work before you download?

    Look to the app developer to provide that information when browsing the iTunes Store.
    The iPod Touch still works, so what's your problem with it? It still works with older apps, it still does what it's intended to do.
    If you aren't happy then sell it and buy a new one.

  • Why doesn't the mac tell me which disk was not ejected properly? How can I find out which one it is referring to?

    If the mac knows that a disk was not ejected properly why doesn't it tell me which one? Would that be making life too easy for non computer nerds????

    Hello Rails50
    All External Hard Drives, Flash Drives, Camera Cards, iPods, iPads etc. need to be ejected before you disconnect them. Likewise you may also get that message from any of the above mentioned devices if it is going bad, has a bad cord or a flaky connection.
    To check your Console Log Messages, go to: Applications > Utilities > Console and select All Messages.
    On that note, it would also help greatly if we knew what external device(s) you are using with your iMac?

    "It extracts all the selectors from all the stylesheets on the page you're viewing, then analyzes that page to see which of those selectors are not used. The data is then stored so that when testing subsequent pages, selectors can be crossed off the list as they're encountered.
    You can test pages individually, or spider an entire site, and you'll end up with a profile of which selectors are not used anywhere."

  • Is there a way to find out which transactions are called by first transacti

    I'm trying to find out if there is a way to find out for ex:
    You go to PFCG and put in transaction CO15
    What other transactions is CO15 going to need or call.
    Thanks
    Joe

    In your test or QA environment, use ST01 to start a trace for authorization checks.  Execute CO15 as you normally would using options on the screen to enter the production order confirmation.  Once complete, stop the trace and review the log.  the log will include all authority checks that occurred.
    Another response was to use the USOBT table.  You can call these tables directly using SU24.  the check maintain entries are validate when an authority check is executed.

  • Is there a way to find out the ipod that bought and download music from my acct?  My credit card was charged over $150.00 and my kids didn't do it

    Is there a way to identifiy who bought and downloaded music from iTunes from my account.  I looked at my kids touches and they don't have the music downloaded.  Over $150.00 have been charged to my credit card.

    First things first is you absolutely NEED to change your iTunes password, and possibly even your email password as well for that account.
    Secondly, you can get help with fraudulent purchases through the iTunes support site. http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/
    Click iTunes Store Account and Billing and there's a section about Billing Inquiries.
    After purchases, they should be emailing you invoices within a few days of the purchase. You can use that as reference to what was purchased, so that will help you determine if it was legitimate or not.  Simply look at the kid's iPod/iPad/iPhone and see if it is on their device.  Since you're all sharing the same account, you won't be able to tell which device purchased it.
    You're welcome to disregard the above statements if you'd like, since I reread your question and notice that you did already look at your kid's devices.
    Please change your email and itunes password immediately!
