My iPhone contact list was appropriated and spam emails were sent to them all.  How do I stop this  from happening again?

How can I stop my iphone contact list from being appropriated again?

It was not, the more likely issue is that someone got access to your email contact list.

  • When I restored my iphone 4 all my deleted emails were back. like 4000 of them. How do I stop this from happening? Thanks

    I recently restored my iphone 4 when it froze up and when the restore was done, I had over 4000 emails in my inbox. All my deleted messages came back. How do I stop that from happening? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks

    You have POP mail account.   That's how those types of email accounts work.
    You want an IMAP type of account, where if you delete on phone, it will also delete on server.   Should you ever restore your device again it will only update the mail that hasn't been deleted.
    You didn't say which email service you use, but try contacting them to see if they offer IMAP.  Or you can switch.

  • Importing my video from my event library into my project library, it shows the full width of the clip, but on the viewing section, it's zoomed in and cut the sides of the video off.  How do I stop this from happening?

    When importing my video from the event library to the project library, it's zooming in and
    narrowing the width of my footage.  How do I stop this from happening?

    In the project, double-click on the clip to open the Clip Inspector. In the Clip tab you will see an item about two thirds down labelled "Stabilization". If checked, uncheck the box "Smooth clip motion".
    Stabilizing clips causes a zoomed in effect, with the extent of the zoom dependent upon how shaky the footage is. There is a slider beneath the check-box labelled "Maximum Zoom" - this can be draggged back and forth to adjust the zoom effect if desired, once the clip has been stabilized.
    You may have chosen to analyze clips for stabilization when importing to iMovie (that's a choice provided by iMovie upon import). If so, it's best to turn off an option in iMovie's preferences. Go to this from the iMovie menu item iMovie>Preferences. Click on the Browser tab and deselect (uncheck) the box labelled "Automatically stabilize clips that have been analyzed".
    I prefer to import clips without analyzing, as this speeds up the import process. Afterwards, in the Event you can check for any overly shaky clips, then analyze them in the Inspector. If necessary, once dropped into a Project, you can stabilize them as desired. You can also stabilize clips directly in the Project without having to first analyze them in the Event.

  • I have a new iPhone 4S, have noticed when texting some of my contacts with iPhones that my text sends on imessage and the text duplicates itself.  how do i stop this from happening?

    I have a new iPhone 4S and have noticed that when I text a friend with an iPhone it automatically send the message via imessage and sends the text twice, how can I stop this from happening?

    Your phone is setup from default with iMessage turned on. Your friends phone obviously isn't. I have a friend that has an iPhone 3G[S] with an old phone plan that didn't require a data package and he's just been swapping the sim card for 5 years. When he's at home, his phone is on wifi and it sends over iMessage. When he's at work on 3G the phone defaults back to text message because he doesn't have a data plan to send iMessage over. The phone isn't actually sending 2 messages. You send in iMessage and if the other phone is off of iMessage, it will resend to that phone as a green text message. That person never got the blue iMessage you tried to send because their iMessage wasn't working.

  • I have ms exchange on my iphone 4s and when i read my email, it disappears. Where does it go and how do I stop this from happening?

    I recently aquired an iphone 4s due to the fact that our parent corporation requires us to use either a blackberry or iphone in order to have the protection needed to use their email. In MS Exchange, when I recieve an email, I read it once, then it's gone. Very frustrating as I need to keep those emails available. Where do they go and How do I stop this from happening?

    i actually got it figured out. I have multiple email accounts i have to use due to different corporate offices ( which can be a real headache at times). The exchange account is an active server used by Hilton and its an actual account. What was happening is my mail was getting kicked back to their server for storage. Once I contacted Hilton, they corrected it on their end. Thanks for trying to help out.

    I have contacted them, but apart from letting them look at it and deal with it, is there anything I can personally do myself? Or is it just a matter of waiting for me now?

Is there a way to get them off without deleting each one? Also how do i prevent this from happening again? can someone direct me to some info on multiple phones on one itunes i am lost.

    Hey there 79usma79!
    I have a couple of articles for you that can help you troubleshoot the issues you are seeing with iTunes on Windows XP. The first is a general troubleshooting article, which can be found right here:
    iTunes for Windows XP: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1421
    This article can help you find out if there are any conflicts between your copy of Windows XP and iTunes, and can tell you what to do if there are. Before going down the troubleshooting route though, you should take a look at this article, which can help you back up your entire iTunes library to an external hard drive, so if this issue is recurring, you will be able to restore from that backup and will not have to worry about losing your playlists or music again:
    iTunes: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive

    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
    Cheers,

    Both my iphone and my husbands iphone ring at the same time when only one of us is being called. How can I stop this from happening?

    This post has already been answered. Why are you plugging your own site with an answer that has already been given? Not to mention that the information you are handing out is incorrect. There is no bug, there is no patch, and no one needs to delete any email addresses. If you take the time to read the posts with the correct answers, you will see that the solution is totally different than the erroneous one you have posted.

  • HT203167 I have a ton of files on my iPod and just got an iPhone. Last time I updated all my files were lost; how do I prevent this from happening again?

    Max,
    It really can take very long to import and process so many images - I would not dare to make a prediction.
    Can you open the Activity Viewer?
    From Aperture's main menu bar: Window > Show Activity.
    This window will tell you the filename of the image that is currently being processed.
    if you are seeing, that the import is still far from being finished, you might to pause certain tasks directly from this panel, like the generation of previews or scanning for faces. I'd let the import run, if you see that it is making progress.
    Have you enabled very time-consuming options, like the generation of high resolution previes or scanning for faces and places? if yes, and the import is not making any progress at all, I'd disable thes options in the Aperture preferences for the initial import. You can add these later for the projects where you want to use these features.
    Regards
    Léonie

  • When I import new home videos into my iTunes and edit the names it creates duplicate Library's on my Apple Tv. How can I stop this from happening each time I edit a name in iTunes home videos??

    I am having an issue with duplicate Libraries showing up in my Home Sharing "Home Videos".  It happens when I import home videos into iTunes and change the names of the files. How do I avoid this from happening and delete the duplicate libraries?

    The sort fields should generally be empty unless you've putting in custom values to sort solo artists by their surnames. You can apply common changes to thousands of tracks at once, just don't apply the wrong change because there is no undo.
    It is a good idea to backup before undertaking large scale changes. See this backup tip for a suggested approach.

  • For some reason when my daughter sends a text to someone else I get it and vice versa.  Also, when I send a text to her the text comes to me as well.  How do I stop this from happening?

    For some reason when my daughter sends a text to someone else I get it and vice versa.  Also, when I send a text to her the text comes to me as well.  How do I stop this from happening?

    This is iMessages, not an SMS/MMS, and this means the same Apple ID is registered for iMessage on each iPhone.
    You or your daughter need to activate your own Apple ID for iMessage and FaceTime. The same Apple ID can continue to be shared for iTunes store downloads - for music and apps.
    On the iPhone, go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive.   Select the Apple ID at the top and sign out.   Sign in with the new Apple ID.
    Make sure the same email address is not available below You can be reached by iMessage at on each iPhone.
