Got scammed out of my money!
've made 3 purchases on 8/15/2014 two of the purchases were very small less than 50$, seemed to have gotten those points no problem, made another purchase for 1300$ plus and I received no points, it shows up as a big fat zero, called the 24 hour support and it took over 10 minutes to get a hold of someone, how many people could possiblely be calling this late at night. She claimed that because I am an employee I don't get the points, but it seems I have received points for every other purchases. Oh and I forgot to mention they never even gave me my bonus points for the purchases. It's nice to kn ow that I'm getting scammed out of over 40$. I keep hearing from everyone that best buy offers the greatest service, but why does it take over 2 weeks to get the support ticket and that long for a phone call! Why does the point go in perfectly fine for smaller purchase, but when i make this one big one, oh no points, also I've read through the faq and some terms and conditions and have not seen anything about being an employee and the points. Multiple employees say they get points with their discount.

Got scammed, can i get my money back from dispute ?
I got scammed by a guy when buy a sneaker. He use other person's picture to scam me. I paid for him 600$ thru 'good and service ' . I file a dispute yesterday . Can i get my money back ?i have all the proof he is a scammer .
DO NOT CLOSE THE DISPUTE, you won't be able to open it again AND he won't refund you i guess. Also if he wanted to refund you he can do so WHILST THE DISPUTE IS ONGOING. *************************************** I give up my time to help you so a thank you or kudos would be cool.
Marking one of my replies as a solution would be appreciated if I sorted your problem. -
A week ago i got scammed for my item, he sent me two gifts adding up to $250 he said the money would come through and loads of false evidence i have video proof of false infomation but paypal just dont seem to care about there customers i made a request for him to pay the money is there anyway of paypal getting my $250 or item back.
Was it this scam?? If it was marked as an invoice then its probably a scam doing the rounds as its been sent by a buyer and altered to look as though he has paid you.
Signs its a scam are >>>
its an invoice BUT sellers send invoices not buyers
marked as paid
marked as gift
says payment won't show in your balance for eg 24 hours
can't be chargedback.
Paypal NEVER tell you to send anything until the funds are showing in your paypal account balance.
Paypal payments are more or less instant.
Paypal will never tell you that a payment can't be subject to a chargeback. * * * If so then if you sent the item before you got paid there is not a lot paypal can do about it unfortunately. -
I think I got scammed on iTunes?
Hi, I think I got scammed on iTunes. I purchased this...
https://itunes.apple.com/au/album/born-for-this-single/id872605458
And then I found out that it wasn't actually released by the artist himself, but someone else under his name.
Can they get my credit card information? Or only the $3.38? What happens?Hi ajidi,
If you have concerns about a recent iTunes Store purchase, you may find the following article helpful, in particular the extra links in the Get help section near the bottom:

Got scammed and Skype account seems wiped.
Hi Skypers,
I got scammed last year for XXXX$. Before you guys yell at me I understand that it's my fault alone, so yeah. I just wanted to know if a moderator can see when I last logged in or if somebody logged in from another location because I recently have been called by the company I owe the money to that it has to be soon or they'll charge more.
I was also wondering if anyone or me logged into my account would they be able to wipe my history, conversations, etc. Because the company that "I" owe money would gladly have that conversation to use against the scammer. Is there anyway I can get my message history back or have the recent updates removed that future?
Sincerely,
Sad MortenseNNHi, Sad MortenseNN, and welcome to the Community,
Confirming the Community's Moderators have no access to the information you seek. You would need to file with your local law enforcement agency, who could in turn request the information upon request to Skype in an effort to further their investigation. The police know how to contact Skype via official channels.
You will need to create a new account in order to contact Skype Customer Service to recover your first account, as odd as that sounds. Skype Customer Service may be able to restore your account data and contact list.
Here is a link to the instruction on how to contact Skype Customer Service via their secure portal: Contact Customer Service

hello i just came back from the apple store and they had to restore my phone and i just downloaded all my apps and music back but my photos that are on icloud i only got 80 out of 768 back. what do i do to get all of them back?
If you tried to restore to your iCloud backup and your photos didn't fully restore, first go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup and make sure it isn't still in the process of restoring.
If the restore is complete and all your photos weren't restored, all you can do is try restoring the backup again. You might try the solution posted by ezjules in this discussion: https://discussions.apple.com/message/19518589#19518589. This involves opening the photos app after the phone restarts and you provide the passwords for your Apple IDs, then leaving it open for the remainder of the restore process. -

I have not used my Apple TV in a few years, and just got it out of the bag to use on a new TV. I connected it up to power and with an HDMI cable toTV. It attempts to set date and time and cannot. I cannot get the remote to interact with the box also. Could it be something as simple as needing a new battery?
Hi kybriar,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. This article has steps you can take to troubleshoot the remote itself:
Troubleshooting the Apple Remote
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1722
For the issue of setting the date and time, these articles may help:
Apple TV: Basic troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1551
Reset Apple TV by unplugging it from the power outlet, waiting about five seconds, then plugging it in again.
Power off your TV, wait five seconds, then power it back on.
Apple TV (2nd and 3rd generation): Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connectionshttp://support.apple.com/kb/TS4546
Ensure that Apple TV is within range of your Wi-Fi router or base station.
Confirm that your Wi-Fi router and cable/DSL modem are connected to power and turned on.
Make sure other devices (computers, iPhone, iPad, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
Check your Wi-Fi network settings on Apple TV:
Select Settings > General > Network > Wi-Fi and press the center button on the remote to display nearby networks.
Choose your Wi-Fi network from the list.
If your Wi-Fi network uses a password, make sure you are entering it correctly.
Restart your Apple TV by selecting Settings > General > Restart.
Try restarting your Wi-Fi router or modem by turning it off and then on again.
If possible, connect an Ethernet cable and verify your Internet connection. If you can connect to the Internet using an Ethernet connection, verify that your Apple TV is using the latest software by selecting Settings > General > Software Update. If your Apple TV can be updated, install the update and then try the steps again.

My Itunes library got wiped out, no playlists any more. I would like to copy what is on my IPOD back to Itunes because I have purchased a newer IPOD nano. I am not able to drag and drop any of the music on my IPOD to a new playlist name on Itunes.
Restore your iTunes library from your most recent backup of it. If you've not had the foresight to maintain a backup of your library see turingtest2's user tip on Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device, which lists several methods - some using third-party tools - to accomplish this. There is no facility in iTunes itself to transfer media (other than iTunes Store purchases) from any iDevice to iTunes, and iDevices are not designed or suitable for data storage.

I got locked out from my iPad mini during my initial setup. Keep ask me for passcode but I haven't setup one. Reboot and restart didn't solve the problem, tried connect to iTunes but it won't let me because it requires the passcode. Tried my Exchanged password, Apple ID password and my iPhone passcode but none work. Any idea to resolve this?
Try and force your iPad into Recovery Mode
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: Data will be lost. -
Hi,
Recently I got my Iphone unlocked. Earlier I was using it on ATT n/w. After unlock i am using it in India with a service provider here.
The problem that I am getting is, the phone was able to pick up the network and am able to make calls and messages. Data plan is still to be activated so cant confirm on that, but all the apps that were there on my phone got wiped out on its own. Since I wasnt sure as to what happend, so I reinstalled the apps today morning. I saw the apps getting installed and then left to get ready for my office. after nearly 30 mins I saw nothing was getting syncronized so disconnected the phone and left for Office. On reaching office when I checked for my usual Apps, I could see only the apple apps and none other available there. Need to know whats the issue and how to resolve it. Please can someone help me on this?I can not get to iPhone screen, so no way to get to Settings. That is the problem. When I connect phone to iTunes I get screen asking to insert SIN card. On the phone I'm getting Cinfigure screen asking Launguage , Country or Region, Wi-Fi, ( I can connect to my home wi-fi), and last screen "Activating your iPhone". After two minutes of waiting IM getting message: Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server in temporary unavailable. try connecting to iTunes or try later or contat apple.com/support.
Like I mention, I went to Bell as well Rogers store and tried to insert active SIM card with no results.
Yes, my friend unlock the phone to use with Rogers but I don't know where -
I got locked out of Mac os 9 and now I can't get into OS 9 or OS X. All I see is the Macintosh SE and a finder face and text that says "mac os 9.2 welcome to mac os". I can't get into COntrol Panel to reset the password to allow me to get in.
Do you have OS X and OS 9 installed on your Mac? If so, startup with the Option key depressed. This will open the Startup Manager window. Select the OS you want to start from & click the right arrow.

Running my 3rd generation iPad on iOS 7.0.4, I saturated all the available iPad screen space (which would be the 15 home screens or desktop worth of space) with apps, and the apps that got bumped out of the last screen space mysteriously disappeared. Where are those missing quick lauch app icons now? The apps are still installed and can be searched/accessed through the finder, but they no longer have a user friendly access. How can I solve this problem?

Hi Hexonxonx, thanks for trying to help, but next time please read the entire discussion, in oder to better comprehend what is being asked. The reason being is that your answer added nothing to what had already been mentioned.
Like I said, I was aware it was possible to access the apps through the finder, but the question revolved around how to recover the quick launch app icons for certain vanished apps.
Wow, kind of a snotty response to someone who was taking their own time to offer help. Whether you thought it was helpful or not, didn't deserve such an unkind retort. Maybe when you realize we all just users here trying to help others like you, who have issues and we don't get anything in return for the countless hours some people here spend offering that assistance, you'll maybe be a little less quick to be critical.
Just sayin.......
Oh and Meg offered the right answer. Put your Apps in Folders, which will create extra space for the apps which have disappeared. -
I've been using my cell phone number to imessage from my ipad for a while now, but yesterday I got signed out of I message and when I signed back in, I didn't get the option to use my number, only my email adress. How can I fix that?
Hey bill.rizzo2,
Thanks for the question. I understand your phone number is missing on your iPad as an option for iMessage. The following article provides steps to resolve this issue:

Phone number missing on iPad or iPod touch
If your phone number isn't listed on an iPod touch or iPad, follow these steps:
1. Update to the latest version of iOS.
2. Verify that you're using the same Apple ID that you're using on your iPhone.
3. On your iPad or iPod touch, sign out of your Apple ID in the following locations:
- Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
- Settings > FaceTime. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
4. Sign in to your Apple ID with FaceTime and iMessage.
If your phone number still isn't listed, follow these steps:
1. Sign out of your Apple ID on all iOS devices, including your iPhone, in the following locations:
- Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
- Settings > FaceTime. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
2. Sign in to your Apple ID on your iPhone.
3. When activation is complete, your Apple ID and all verified email addresses should be visible in Settings > Messages > Receive At and Settings > FaceTime.
4. Sign in to your Apple ID on your other iOS devices.
Thanks,
