Email asking for iPad feedback - is this really from Apple?

Hi,
I bought an iPad last summer and received an email today from [email protected] asking me to take part in a survey.
I have not opened the mail. Does anyone know if it is spam?

apple.com is a valid email server for Apple.
Maybe so, but surely you know it is very easy to fake an email to make it look as though the email comes from an @apple.com email address?
More important is to look at where the survey link in the email takes the user to, and what personal information does it ask for.
According to a quote attributed to Steve Jobs, Apple doesn't do market research:

    Getting Account Update Emails asking for SIN numbers, is this legit? Should state it is coming from Itunes and Icloud apple store.

    No. Forward them to [email protected] and then delete them.

  • My I pad2 shouted out an alert n told me to go to the website SSOPM dot com to fix n restore protection, is this really from Apple? Or virus?

    My I pad2 shouted out an alert, repeating it several times then told me to go to the website SSOPM dot com to fix n restore protection.  Is this really from Apple or is it Spam or. Threat?

    I don't think so...I am pretty afraid to hit anything I don't know about...which is a lot!  But when I tried to update my iPad last week or so I had a heck of a time. I had too many questions and I had to be connected to my computer si I could not stop in the store for help.  I will have to check with the store on Monday.  Thank you.

  • HT204053 I accidentally bought an 15GB iCloud service, and I want a refund of my money. How can I get my money back? I can't find the email adress to ask for it (I live in Chile. Apple doesnt have a Phone support for this area)

    Please, help me :)

    Your best bet would be to try resetting the password to the account that you would like to use via iForgot
    Once you log in to that account change the email address to anything, it can even be fake its just a placeholder
    After you do that you will be free to change your old email address on your appleID to the new one that is now free to be used as it is no longer attached to the other account.

  • Asked for iPad Air 2 box says iPad Air no 2  64GB with wi fi cellular. is this correct?

    asked for iPad Air 2 box says iPad Air no "2"  64GB with wifi cellular. Is this correct?

    My iPad Air 2 WiFi 64 GB box does not say "iPad Air 2", only "iPad Air", even on the back where it lists the product. It is confusing (why Apple decided to mess with us, I don't know). And, since mine will be a Christmas gift that was shipped to me, with little time to exchange it before the holiday, a little unsettling to say the least.
    Here is what an Air 2 box should look like...

  • Anyone find a good email app for ipad yet?

    The provided email application for ipad is really bad for many things and I need one that doesnt take several actions to do what takes a single action on other systems (like my phone and my computer and my Audrey Ergo)
    Problems:
    - To use multiple accounts you need to go through like 5 taps to see email in each - this is the straw for me BTW
    - Cant seem to find how to change the behavior on deletion. When 'delete' from the ipad i just want it to be "deleted from the ipad". Take NO action on the server.
    - Email notification/'push'/check is non-deterministic and too infrequent. I want to have it done when I want it to have it done. Like "every 5 minutes". Not "sometime near the frequency of every 15 minutes - but we cant be certain"
    - I want to have the frequency different for different accounts.
    Any suggestions on an email application that rivals the competition in the basic functionality (those above at least)?
    Thanks

    I also am looking for a better email client. I need the ability to use folders and have email go directly to these folders when checking email. Just sending all email to only one inbox folder is just to confusing. I like the ability to search for email but this feature only helps to a degree. An example would be... I like all my email from tennis friends on my team to go to a separate email folder. I can do this in Microsoft Outlook and this feature makes it a lot easier to view things. Right now the email client is like a physical filling cabnet that has only one folder. The email client does try to group related emails together that I don't think works very well. So far not all email from one person are being grouped together. Some are but not all so I don't know what criteria it is using to determine what is grouped together. To work better I would like every piece of email from the same person to be grouped together. But then again wouldn't it be easer to just have a separate folder for each person or group of people. The reason for this is at a glance there are so many emails in my inbox that I sometimes miss an email. Using folders would allow me to check and scan my inbox a lot easier when there are only maybe a dozen email to view.
    Anyone else would like to see this feature?

  • What is the best email client for ipad 2

    what is the best email client for ipad 2

    Im going to go ahead and assume your talking to me?
        I ended up in this thread in search of a functional Exchange ready mail client capable of supporting multiple mail profiles. Since there are no free applications to accomplish this in the app stor, which I can find, I figured I'd leverage the 'community' for some direction before throwing good money after bad.
       As I assume Im not the only one to do this, I figured I'd help straighten these folks out on the lingo (as they werne't applying it properly) and the sassy 'sound like apple users' comment references the way ANTI-apple folks assume you people are less than adequite users.
       If I called an apple an orange, you would say I was wrong. If I did it repeatedly, after correction, you would assume Im incompetant.
       Seriously, its a stupid machine and will only do what you tell it. (true for all computers, apple or otherwise)
       So if I ask for a mail client, dont give me a provider. If I ask for a service, dont name a client. 
        Your right, this post is old. And stilll doesnt have an answer. . .
        In response to MichelPM, I didnt call your baby ugly. The 'Bandwagoning' is cute though. My advice is sound, and helping you folks not to look so... well... stupid.
        Since you interceded though, how about a little help? What mail client do you use? Is it exchange Compatible, with active sync? Does it offer multi-profile support? And the clients want images in their signatures, and multi signature support. (I can do this with my android phone ) 
    Im looking forward to your responses.

  • Are people getting lots of fake iTunes emails asking for personal information?

    Since I bought my Mac Air I have started receiving bogus "itunes" emails asking for personal info and I would like to report it. They say my payment info needs updating so they want credit card, SS# and birthdate.    Anyone know how/where to report these to Apple?

    Yes, unfortunately it is pretty common.

  • I now recieve duplicate email on my ipad 2 since I converted from MobileMe to iCloud

    i now recieve duplicate email on my ipad 2 since I converted from MobileMe to iCloud

    Thanks for starting the thread clisfromSLC.
    I am facing the exact same problem with my brand new ipad2. The addition of a single contact post a successful sync, caused the app to crash. Restarting the app did not get the contacts back. Neither did restarting the ipad itself.
    I dont want to rely on the ipad now until I have a patch or OS update that corrects this issue. If I add several contacts and suddenly lose all of them, it's not something i really look forward to.
    Can someone please help? Thanks so much.

  • I forgot the ans. of securety questions and there's no options or ask for rescue question when i open my apple id ..

    i forgot the ans. of securety questions and there's no options or ask for rescue question when i open my apple id ..

    The reset link will only show if you have a rescue email address on your account. If you hadn't put one on your account (you won't be able to add a rescue email address until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
