TS3276 email was hacked, can open email on yahoo (after changing passwords) but cannot open mail on my computer, cannot even access mail because it will not accept my user name or password and I am unable to reset my account

email was hijacked and spam/virus link sent out to all of my contacts on wed at 4:21AM..... with the Subject as Rep: My Name or My email address and a link to a web page discussing making money working at home. Could not get into any of my mail, on the web or on Mail on my mac. After a phone call to automated support through Yahoo through ATT, I was given a temporary password and was able to reset my Yahoo password and get email on the internet. I still cannot open my Mail Account on either my iMac or MacBook Pro. I cannot get into Mail, period. My sign in keeps popping up and it keeps telling me that my user name or password is incorrect. I tried my old password, the temporary password and the new password. Nothing is working, I cannot receive or send anything in Mail. Mail is Frozen. If I want my email, I must go to the web and sign into Yahoo Mail.
Help!

When you were entering your new password in mac mail for your Yahoo account, you didn't perchance change the user name from [email protected] to just name without the @att.net? I only ask because I've done that, and att.yahoo mail requires a fully qualified [email protected] for access.
In mail, you might click on window on the menu bar, then connection doctor. On the account with the red dot next to it, it will tell you why it can't connect, and if you click on it, you'll be taken to where you can fix it.

I have four devices on one Apple ID, i have separate emails and phone numbers for each device but when I tried to add one to my iPod, it said that the email was already in use.

I have four devices on one Apple ID, i have seperate emails and phone numbers for each device but when I tried to add one to my iPod, it said that the email was already in use. I have tried many things and the only guess I have is that either someone else has this email as their iMessage but is fake or it wasn't taken off my old iPod when I reset it. Any ideas on what to do?

Thanks but that doesn't give me the information I need. I am putting an email on my ipod for people to contact me for iMessage and FaceTime but when I put the email in, it gives me an error saying that the email cannot be veirified because it is already in use. My Apple ID can be varified, just not the email that they will contact me with.

I set up an apple id for my 12 year old, a verfication email was sent, but google has locked her out because of age. How do I get the verfication email?

Should each person in my house have their own apple id and password?
Can each of the different ID's be linked back to my apple account so that when they purchase apps and music it will be charged to my credit card?

Ask Google... they locked you out of the email account.

I have an Ipad 2 and are having problems sending out emails in one of my email address. I always get a message reading the email was not sent because the server does not allow relaying. This is an email account POP3. I have no such problem with gmail.

Is it about settings?

Welcome to the Apple community.
If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact Apple ID Support, upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

If you are trying to activate an iPad or iPhone and it is asking for a previous owners Apple ID and password, you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature that prevents thieves from setting up and using a stolen or lost iPad or iPhone. You have no alternative. You must use the previous owner's password to get permission to use the device. If you cannot get the password your father put on the iPad you will never be able to activate the device and no one can help you do it.

My email was deleted and I have long since forgotten the password - plus I must have typed personal information in incorrectly... I can't reset my password (email goes to deceased email account) and I have $$$$ left! What do I do?

You do realize that there are many, many email providers and without knowing which one you are talking about, there is no way to answer your question?
Which then leads to this ..... Have you contacted your email provider about this? That's probably the best place to start. See what they recommend.

Hi Kazmania89,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
If you require additional assistance with this, click on the link below for guidance:

Once you are able to gain access to the old Apple ID, this article may be helpful:

I have purchased music, apps, or books with multiple Apple IDs. How can I get all of this content onto my iOS device? 
First, you need to copy all of your purchased content so it is on the same Mac or PC with iTunes. This computer should be the one you sync your device with. For more information on how to move your content, see these articles:
Mac: iTunes for Mac: How to copy purchases between computers
PC: iTunes for Windows: How to copy purchases between computers
Next, authorize your computer to play content with each Apple ID in iTunes. Once your computer is authorized for all your content, it can be synced to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
Cheers,

My old email was hacked. My old Apple ID had the password changed and now with my new Apple ID I want to delete my old account and transfer my purchases and details to my new account. How do I go about this when I cannot access my old email as it has been

My old email was hacked and my password corrupted. Now I have a new Apple ID but cannot cancel the old ID as I no longer have access to that email address. How do I cancel the old ID and merge my purchases and details with the new Apple ID?

You can't merge Apple IDs. You also can't cancel (delete) and existing ID, you can only choose to stop using it.
If your old ID was compromised and you can no longer access it, you'll have to contact Apple for assistance. Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; click 'See all products and services' at the bottom of the page. In the next page click 'More Products and Services, then 'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then then 'Apple ID account Security’.

How do I delete my iCloud off my phone when my email was hacked and I can't figure out the password?

My email was hacked recently and I have been trying to reset it for awhile. Theres no way to delete the account or reset my phone without the password. I also dont remeber what year I put in for my birthday.

Call Apple and ask for Account Security.

My old email was hacked and no longer in use. My old Apple ID is no longer recognized so I opened a new one. But all my apple gadgets are still prompting my void email which , of course, does not recognize my my former Apple ID. ID

Even if my iPad and all apple gadgets contain my new email, the old email I no longer use is the one prompted for my apple ID when I visit the App Store. Please help.

Making a new ID is not a good solution, as all your previous purchases are forever tied to the old one.
Who cares if your old email was hacked, it's the apple id that matters. If you stil can't acccess it, then try this:
 Account Security Team (AST) 
Check the AppleCare number for your country here:

Call them up, and let them know you would like to be transferred to the Account Security Team.

GRC10 Access control-how/where to check if an approval request email was sent?

Hi experts
Please could you let me know how/where to check if an approval request email was sent?
I some approvers complaining that they havent received the approval request email from GRC.
Please advise.
Thanks

Hi Ranjit
I tested it as well by stripping the access back and then used STAUTHTRACE (much nicer than ST01). You are right - it is asking for S_DEVELOP 02 DEBUG
METHOD check_admin_auth .
   DATA: lo_message_manager TYPE REF TO if_wd_message_manager,
       lo_api_controller TYPE REF TO if_wd_controller,
       lr_auth_node TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node.
   lo_api_controller ?= wd_this->wd_get_api( ).
   lo_message_manager = lo_api_controller->get_message_manager( ).
   lr_auth_node = wd_context->get_child_node( name = 'AUTH' ).
   TRY.
       cl_grfn_msmp_authorizations=>check_sap_debug_authorization( ).
       lr_auth_node->set_attribute(
          EXPORTING
            value =     'X'
            name =     'CAN_RUN'
     CATCH cx_grfn_msmp.
       MESSAGE e197(grfnmw) INTO cx_grfn_msmp=>m_msg_str. ----> E197 (GRFNMW) matches the error msg
       lo_message_manager->report_t100_message(
    METHOD check_sap_debug_authorization.
   AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT 'S_DEVELOP'
             ID 'DEVCLASS' DUMMY
             ID 'OBJTYPE' FIELD 'DEBUG'
             ID 'OBJNAME' DUMMY
             ID 'P_GROUP' DUMMY
             ID 'ACTVT'    FIELD '02'.
   IF sy-subrc NE 0.
     MESSAGE e219(grfnmw) WITH sy-uname INTO cx_grfn_msmp=>m_msg_str.
     grfnw_msmp_raise_msg: cx_grfn_msmp_no_authorization.
   ENDIF.
ENDMETHOD.
I recommend raising a customer incident with SAP to get their input as I don't think DEBUG should be necessary for MSMP Instance Runtime - and then let us all know the outcome

HT5312 I forgot the answers to my securtiy questions so I had apple send me an email to reset them, however I have not recieved the email. I've tried this many times and each time the email was never sent.

If you aren't receiving the email to your rescue email account (and you've checked the spam folder on it as well as the inbox) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.
