This message often appears when trying to update an iPhone that has been previously altered by an unsupported method. Jail breaking a phone or hacking it to unlock it from a carrier are two examples. If this applies to your phone you cannot get support on this forum.

    Do you mean:
    1)  You can't connect to the network of your carrier?

  • I keep getting contact requests from unknown people

    Ever since I created my skype account, which was a few months ago, I've been getting a bunch of contact requests from people claiming to be in the army, and wanting to hook up and date me? I have absolutely no idea who these people are or why this is happening, or if someone has put my skype name onto Craigslist or something like that. But, if anyone knows how, I would like to know how to make it so that people can't sent me contact requests, meaning that I would have to send them one, if possible. I had been getting a lot more contact requests from these supposed soldiers in the first month or so after creating my account. So if anyone has any ideas on how to fix this, that'd be great.
    Thanks.

    Hi, AvariciaX, and welcome to the Community!
    Not in any particular order, try these pro-active tactics:
    Check your privacy settings to ensure your account is set to receive calls and IM's from people on your contact list only.  Remember to click Save if you make any adjustments.  If you happen to sign on at another location or device, check the privacy settings immediately!  I found this out when I signed on using a new operating system I am learning; much to my horror, my account privacy settings defaulted to settings I never leave "open" on my other locations.
    Clear your profile of any details - scrub it clean.  Leave all settings as "blank" or "not specified," particularly the Gender setting.
    Post a bland, neutral picture or avatar rather than a snapshot or "selfie."
    Remember to Block and Report as Abuse all of these rogue, unwanted contact requests.  Ignoring them makes them go away temporarily; they will return and probably bring their so-called "friends" with them once they know they have a lead on a working, active Skype account name.
    Despite the popularity of it, consider disassociating your Skype account from your FaceBook account.
    You may also contact Skype Customer Service to request your account be removed from the search directory.
    You will need to contact Skype Customer Service to request this.  Here is a link to the instruction on how to contact Skype Customer Service via their secure portal: Contact Customer Service  
    Best wishes and good luck,

  • On restart of Skype I get contact request from a known contact

    Hello allmighty Skype Community, A strange thing has happened with one of my contacts on Skype. This is a person I know and he has been on my contact list for years. A couple of weeks ago the following happened: Whenever I restart Skype I get a contact request from that person and no matter what I do (decline or accept), that person stays on my contact list and I get a new contact request. I asked my contact something has happened on his side, but he couldn't recall anything particular. Any ideas on how I should solve this?

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    Delete the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.

    If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.<br />
    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note).

  • I get contact request from people I don't know - ...

    Where are people getting my skype name from, because I keep getting requests for contact.  Out of curiousity I added a contact, and in one day of corresponding (could not connect video, I worked out that it was the basis work of a scam.

    I would like to know the same thing.  I get multiple requests daily and they seem to be mostly from Military people.  I usually decline and block but the amount I get is ridiculous.  I asked one of them one day where they found me only to be told that he typed in the name Susan because it was someone he knew and then found me that way, which seemed not quite right.  
    Is there anyone out there who know's an answer to this - how people find you randomly like this on skype?

  • Cant get contact names to show up on text messages received

    Do you have your contacts in the Contacts app? How are you syncing your contacts, via the computer, or iCloud or other cloud service?

  • Cant get contacts and calendars to sync to ipod nano

    when I sync my nano to my macbook itunes, all music and photos copy, but my contacts and calendars (selected) look like they copy, but when done, the nano does not have any contacts or calendars. this happened occasionally for a while, but now it never copies. THis was a primary use for my NANO, HELP. btw, do any real APPLE people look at these issues?

    I'm having pretty much the exact same problem- my Playlists and Photos sync onto the iPod Nano, but the Contacts and Calendars do not. Any help is appreciated!

  • Receiving contact requests.

    Alright so my friend once lived in Australia with me she then moved to America. I only use Skype to chat with her but for about 4 weeks now I have been getting contact requests NON STOP from creepy old men claiming to be "U.S Army Veterans" I am really creeped out. I have blocked all of them. I have changed my privacy settings but it still hasn't stopped them. I have no clue who they are and I am really creeped out. How can I stop this?! 

    This is an old problem http://community.skype.com/t5/Security-Privacy-Tru​st-and/Strangers-keep-contacting-me/td-p/620247/pa​...
    I have the same issue. I have always had all my privacy/IM/Video settings set to contact only. I do not have an MSN account so the crossover issue mentioned in the thread I linked, whatever that was, isn't it.
    I asked the last one how he got my contact details. After lying that I'd given them to him, he absolutely refused to answer.
    First he said I must have given him the info in another group (I don't know him from Adam, very creepy shot-in-the-dark from him, since I DON'T use skype except to call my family's landlines in the UK via subscription - if that was true, why not open with a "Hi it's xxx from site yyy"?)
    I said that was impossible, he said, "Hmmmn. Don't know."
    I said, "How did you know what contact name to add? Go on, I promise I won't be cross "
    He said "I don't know what to tell you."
    At that point I thanked him for his time and blocked him.
    I don't get a lot, and it's strange how they do _seem_ to be army. I don't for a second think they are. There are scamers out there using US army guys faces to borrow credibility to get you to talk to them.
    In which case, they are probably finding contact names by doing to places like dating sites and running through the username lists they find there. If your skype contact id is not unique to skype, you can be contact by guesswork, basically. Skype can't fix that.
    Skype CAN fix that the last one IM-ed me and he's not in my contact list, contrary to my provacy settings. That suggests there's an exploit in skype's security that is being hacked, possibly by an organised effort since the type of contact is so consistent. 
    My advice to average user bearing the brunt of this - since we are the actualy target and what they want is money - is to save the conversation, then block and report, and post the convo here if you can so the community can get a handle on how widespread this is.
    Never, ever give out personal identification info or money out online, not even if the person convinces you absolutely that you two are in love. They contact you, get real info and a background check but don't just take thier word for anything.
    Ref: http://usmilitary.about.com/u/ua/justicelawlegisla​tion/Are-You-A-Victim-Of-A-Romance-Scam.htm Scroll down to the name nj flinn - that post talk about use of army guys names in scams on skype.
    Good luck and stay safe,

  • Spam with contact requests

    So a while ago like a month ago I stopped talking to this one person.  He started to get kinda strange acting wierd so I blocked him, but ever since then I have been getting contact requests from him.  It is so bad every day it's a diffrent person today it was "Jennifer".  I'm wondering is there a way to stop this can I contact skype to have this persons IP banned from my account?  Any form of help is appreciated thank you.

    Contact requests can't be blocked.  Even if they were blockable by IP, people would just use a proxy/VPN to get around that block.  It's similar to getting spammed by an autodialer with phone calls.   For all you know all your Skype names were posted in an online forum and harvested by spam bots ot make the situation worse. The only solution available  is to create a new account and be more selective of the people you choose as contacts and the groups you create/join.  I'm part of groups but the ones I'm a part of everyone behaves like a grown adult and wouldn't stoop to that level.   The alternative is to contact local law enforcement and see what type of cyberbullying policies/laws there are to see if you can hold that person accountable for their actions (harassment).  

  • Contact requests not coming to me (on my windows m...

    I am using Skype on my Windows 8 machine and my Android and my Mac.
    When I get contact requests they dont show up on my Windows account.
    The only workaround I have found is to open Skype on my Android and accept the invitation (which is not a big hassle, but Skype... come on! This is over 2 years now).

    Yes.  I'd suggest changing your VzW passcode ASAP.  There are multiple threads on this forum about these scams; they differ in the amount of credit and the web site (although the amount of credit and website are usually the same number, in this case 37).  The only web site that VzW uses is www.verizonwireless.com

  • Contact requests

    Hello, I keep getting contact requests fro us soldiers in Afganistan and don´t know how to stop them!Add me to you contact etc... I tried privacy in my setting, but somehow did´t succeed.
    Solved!

    Hi,
    Skype application has built-in privacy settings that you can use to restrict who is allowed to contact you, but you can still receive new contact requests. This allows friends that you do not have in your contact list to ask to share contact details with you.
    Unfortunately, there is a small minority of people who abuse the Skype software. We have resources dedicated to a number of ongoing anti-spam initiatives so that we can effectively deal with people who send unsolicited messages.
    Please continue to block and report abusive users to us. This helps us to identify and prevent spammers.

    Hope this helps.

  • I have tried to change my User id which is an email address I no longer want to use. Now I am constantly getting requests from icloud and Apple ID for my password and cant get into my icloud account.

    I have tried to change my User id which is an email address I no longer want to use. Now I am constantly getting requests from icloud and Apple ID for my password and cant get into my icloud account.

    To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • I have just upgraded to an Iphone 5 and cant get my contacts to sync. My 4s Contacts default account was from my Mac - but I dont seem to ahve this option on my 5? How do I sync them?

    I have just upgraded to an Iphone 5 and cant get my contacts to sync. My 4s Contacts default account was from my Mac - but I dont seem to ahve this option on my 5? How do I sync them?

    The way I do it is I hook to my windows computer, it will pop up iTunes. I click iTunes off. The phone will show as another drive on your computer. Click it open then migrate to the photos folder from the iPhone.
    Then select all, cut then right click on your pictures folder on your computer or make a new folder on your desk top like I do and right click on new folder and select paste.
    Photos will be gone. Just remember to turn off the iPhone sync in your photos folder on the phone or they will come back
    Good Luck
