Automated messages from Apple in a language I do not speak
Hi Everyone!
For two weeks now everytime I connect to iCloud from any of my iOS devices, I get an automated message from Apple saying that I connected to iCloud using that specific device. The problem is that the message comes in French! Who can help me have Apple use English to communicate with me again????
All my settings in my devices and iCloud have the language set for English.
Thanks a lot!
The message is as follows:
Cher(ère) User,
Votre identifiant Apple ([email protected]) a été utilisé pour ouvrir une session iCloud et iMessage à partir d’un iPhone 4S appelé « User´s iPhone ».
Si vous n’avez pas récemment configuré un iPhone avec votre identifiant Apple, il serait plus sûr de changer le mot de passe de votre identifiant Apple.
Same here. Except I am English and am in Spain and everything comes in Spanish. Just because I am in a country for a while does not mean I speak that language well enough to read all the details...
APPLE PLEASE DON'T ASSUME THINGS THAT ARE NOT CORRECT!

At 3AM, there was one attempt at entering my AppleID password, which failed per the email message. A few seconds later, a second attempt failed and the email message from Apple was that it was probably a mistake caused by someone entering a wrong keystroke when trying to enter their own password. Well,, a few seconds later, the message was that I had successfully changed my password. Great.
Yes, it was a full twelve hours later that I saw this, since 3AM is a perfect time to hijack anyone, and I did do what it said about changing my password. But I want to know how someone changed my password at 3AM and had total access to my whole computer. My security is the highest Apple has.
Mostly, that was the LAST email I've gotten. I can't bring email online. I can't do anything.
I am mostly computer ignorant, which is why my daughter made me get an Apple in the first place. I love Apple. Any ideas at all the damage done? This seems like a big hole in Apple email. I am absolutely sure no one knew the password because I used a sequence I have never told anyone. Even my ex-husband of 35 years would have no clue.
Did someone have to know that password? Is there another way? Well, I guess so.
Help. Those emails are critical.Well if someone got access to your AppleID, they didn't get access to your computer, however, there is some information such as you iCloud information that they may have gotten access to. If you changed your pasword back to something else, then they won't have access to it anymore either. I'm not sure what is going on though because I have been getting a lot of those emails on my work AppleID that I have to have for work because I need to keep their phone seperate from all of my personal equipment. It's just strange though that in the past few days I've been getting like 5 or 6 of those emails stating that an attempt was made to change my pasword a day.

I recently rented a movie using Apple TV and it said it was going to take 7-14 hours to download so I let it run. I also received a message from apple telling me that there was a request for this movie and they took the funds. But when I tried to find it on my purchases it was not there and when I went back to that movie it was asking me to purchase it again is this common and how do I get it back.
Not sure what happend there. But ATV only streams, no HD so if you leave it too long, the whole download gets lost.
Check with iTS.

received a notice that could not use photo stream unless I updated my software. Went to apple preferences/icloud to disable photo stream. Not allowed to do so. What do I do to disable so I won't continue to receive annoying messages from apple/icloud
I think you can solve your problems by removing your AppleID email address from BOTH the Messages setting on your iPhone and the iMessages settings on your Mac.
On iPhone:
Settings > Messages > iMessage > Dissabled
Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > touch the "(i)" < touch "Remove This Email"
On Mac:
Open "Messages" application
Click "Messages menu > Preferences
Click "Accounts"
Select your AppleID account
Under the "You can be reached for messages at" settings, uncheck your AppleID email address and your phone number
Then uncheck the "Enable this account" setting
And lastly, ask all of your friends with iPhones to delete all iMessage conversations (blue bubbles) in their entirety.
To test, send a friend a new text using their phone number (not their email address) and watch the color of the bubble. If it's green then you are using SMS. -

Automated Message from Oracle Files
Good Morning:
When I set a new user account in Collaboration Suite, Oracle files generated a email notification like:
"(Automated message from Oracle Files)
An account has been created for you on Oracle Files
(http://middleserver:7779/files/app) with the following
User ID: user01
In order to enable Protocol Access in Oracle Files you must go to
http://middleserver:7779/files/app/ProtocolAccess and
enter your Single Sign-On Password.
Thank you for using Oracle Files. "
But I need to change this message because the port setted is 7778 instead of 7779.
Where I can change this default port for generate the correct notification?
Thanks a lot for your help.Hello,
I was wondering if we had the ability to handle this via the adapter?
Possible, but you need to develop adapter module for this.
It looks like a prologxmlepilog, but in your case, they are the ones sending. Where is the XML payload in the structure that you provided?
You can re-escape the characters using java mapping. For example, find %3C and replace with < . Here is the complete list of URL escape characters http://www.december.com/html/spec/esccodes.html
Hope this helps,

IPad Mail messages from Apple mail
New ipad getting 10,000 old messages from Apple Mail application (or Comcast server). How do I stop it and get only new messages as of today?
These are emails stored in the Sent folder in Mail, in 2 email accounts. Some are quite old, some recent. In addition, the Mail Inboxes were emptied, leaving only those emails that had been unopened. Those still on the server (I looked at Get Account Info in mail on different Mac to identify which) were downloaded and are in place in the ipad . In short, those lost were emails received and sent, stored locally on the ipad.
When I did the update, it said there was an error so I had to backup and restore, via itunes. I thought emails would be backed up in this proces. I don't use icloud. Thanks -

Yes, the message is self-explanatory. You need a carrier who supports Apple's activation policy for an iPhone.

On 30 May 10.00pm (AET) when I open the Safari, suddenly it came up a message from Apple Web Centre and ask me to delete some files because they got inflection or virus. I didn't do it. Is someone got the same request?
Do not do anything with that - it is NOT from Apple. It is a scam and a trojan. Get rid of the window. Do not download anything. If it downloads itself, check your computer and delete it. And read these:

To repeat my question, Apple offered to install iCloud, and I allowed it. Yet when I try to sign in to iCloud using my Apple ID email and pswrd--an ID that I've been using for YEARS--I'm given the message, "This Apple ID is valid but is not an iCloud account." What is going on?
Everywhere I search on Apple's Support site says to sign in to iCloud using your "Apple ID," which I did. I've had my iTunes account for years (even migrated from the old AOL account system). It's the standard email+password that everyone is supposed to use.
My main question is how can I have a valid Apple ID and not an iCloud account--if the two are supposed to be linked?
Thank you for any help you can give me!
tljI've tried both. First, I tried on my pc, where iTunes had installed iCloud when it last updated. I have iTunes installed on this computer (and on my iPad and iPhone), but that wasn't the issue.
So I went online, thinking I needed a separate iCloud Apple ID, but it prompted me for my current Apple ID and gave me the message about my ID being "valid" but not an iCloud account," which, lol, was what it had asked me to do in order to create one. I checked, and at least one other user is having the same issue. I'll attempt to copy/paste the Support request url: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4430653?tstart=0
