Has anyone else had new security questions from app store today?

Unannounced, apparently random (my colleages havent had this), intrusive and a personal data security risk? I'm not downloading apps until I know for sure its legitimate. Even then, I think its too much information, when its just apps.

Did you check out the link that I posted above. Apparently this is now pretty easy to find discussions about it everywhere. Look at some of these.

Based on the sources, as well as the volume, I'd say it's legit. Haven't seen myself yet, but I have difficulty getting to the app store at work due to network security policies.

Has anyone else had trouble with their photo app? everytime I try to edit a picture my phone restarts.

You have to go into your Gmail account settings.
Then Security.
Then turn ON 2-Step Verification
Follow the instructions to link a cell phone to your google account. They will text you a secondary code and once you've entered that your 2-step verification will be set up.
Then you should have the option on the bottom of the page to add a device. Call it apple tv and then it will generate a secondary code specifically for your Apple TV.
On the Apple TV itself, ultimately I think you have to enter just the first part of your e-mail address (before the @gmail.com) as your Youtube login username.
Then you should enter your gmail account password.
Apple TV will tell you it is incorrect.
Then, retry and enter the long secondary password that google generated for the apple tv.
That should do it.

TS1292 Has anyone else had a part of their app card redemtion code scratched off?

Help I lost the recipt from my $25 dollar app card and part of my redemption code got sratched off now it is illegible, anyone else had this problem? And were you able to redeem the card with help from app store support? I already went through the support process just waiting for my e-mail from them but it could take up to 48 hours...

Thanks for your reply, but I guess whether this was a silly question is a matter of opinion. That is the whole purpose having these forums...so that people can post their questions, silly or not. Maybe you are an Apple expert or have "techy" knowledge, but I don't. So what may be silly or stupid for you, can be completely different for a novice apple consumer like me. If you must know, I did do my research, and I did do the basic trouble shooting.All to no avail. I took my phone to the apple store, had it diagnosed and was told some very inaccurate information. I ended up going back today, and got a second opinion. This person actually took the time to talk to me and to better explain Applecare and my warranty. She also told me that there is no such thing as a "break in" period, and when there is a shutting down issue, even after a "restore" that it was better to get it replaced. Which is what she did. She replaced my phone. Obviously, the first person, by his own admission, was too tired and ready to go home to actually take the time to explain and offer other options...

TS3899 Has anyone else had issues with the mail app after downloading the 6.1.2 update on their iphone 5?

After downloading the 6.1.2 update on my iphone 5, the mail app won't even open, nor will the mail settings in the settings section. Has any one else had this problem, if so is there a way to fix it?

I've updated two iPhone 3GS to iOS6.1.2. Both no longer work with Hotmail. Tried deleting account followed by a reset. Both still stuck trying to verify account for about 5mins before failing to verify account information. Giving up at this point as I cannot bill Apple for the hours spent so far trying to fix this. Lately I'm spending more and more time resolving issues with Apple software iOS and OSX ML. Apple's reputation is falling rapidly. Such a pity.
Moved to Safari trying to log in over a web browser. That failed as well. Cleared the cache and cookies followed by a reset. Enabled accept cookies to Always and then was able to log in to hotmail and see emails through Safari.
I realise that 3GS is relatively older technology but iOS 6 has not been good to this platform. Everything runs slower than before and there are bugs I'm seeing that are not in the public domain. It's not a hardware fault as my wife's phone is behaving the same way. She's not too pleased either IMHO.
These issues are not happening on Ipad after applying the same update.

Has anyone else had an issue ordering from Aperture?

For some reason I keep getting a "please try again later" message and I know my appleID info is correct and up to date. It's just aperture I cannot seem to order from. Any helpful ideas?

Could you walk us through the nature of the trouble you're having (with connecting to the Store) in some more detail, please?

HT1933 Has anyone else had a problem with the app " Storage War$" it costs £1.99 and doesn't work???

Hi I have been having a problem with an app I have purchased, it cost £1.99 and does not match the description
This was a waste of time and I am outraged that Apple have not checked the game after it's reviews. However I want to get my money back as I could buy a different app with the small sum of money. This app did not clearly state that it wasn't a game to play just to watch. A review quote " I want my money back worst app ever! Every button does the same thing home, shop, my items and the actions all take you to the auction. Plus it's the same 5 pictures over and over some worth 900 some 250 just buy 250 absolute joke of a game save your money people"there are 26 others like this how many is enough for you to take action. the only reason for this app purchase was because it was an impulse buy what if there is another 27 impulse buys and it then continues
How can I try and get that app off the AppStore and get my money back as I have not been given a receipt yet ?

What a terrible coincidence, nick70! I can assure that most updates go smoothly. I'm sorry to hear that yours didn't. If you're unable to power your device back on, we may need to get a replacement device out to you. Please follow/DM me ( Chauncey_VZW ) with your contact information, and I'd be happy to resolve this for you! I look forward to hearing back from you.

Has anyone else had an issue where Mail.app signatures and rules disappeared?

For unknown reasons, I lost all my Mail.app signatures and Rules on Oct 10, 2012 at about 9:00AM PST.
Anybody else see something like this?
Also, I am getting sandboxd warnings that are Mail preference related....
I am guessing that the preferences access error that the sandboxd is having is related but who knows...
Anybody seen these kinda log messages?

there also seems to be a problem with the mdworker process .... that is perhaps related to the Mail issue....

I think this is an issue with the phone's proximity sensor (the one that turns the screen off when you hold it up to your ear). It's a bug that seems to occur when you switch to another app (any app) while still on a phone call. You'll notice in Messages that the screen goes dark when you move your thumb over the earpiece/iSight camera, but not when you move your other thumb.
Simplest solution is to force-quit the Messages app (double-click the home button, and swipe up on the app). The problem should resolve itself when you restart Messages.

I have the most recent phone update and iTunes, and when I am trying to upload new music it says "waiting for changes to be applied" but nothing actually changes after a few minutes. Has anyone else had this problem? I can't even remove music

has anyone else had the problem with getting your iphone to sync? i can't get any of my newly downloaded music to sync to my phone from my itunes and i tried to delete all my music and it won't even sync to do that. i dont know what to do.

try a new/fresh apple brand cable and make sure it is the only usb cable in use. this worked for me, i noticed i had no problem with a lighting cable. i did a restore from scratch and from backup and it did not help me...and if you cant sync than you wont be able to get anything but apps back after the restore

HT1414 I have updated my iPhone 4 with the new update ios7 and now the buttons are on like a delayed reaction. Frustrating when texting. Can't be right. Has anyone else had this.

I Have problems with texting and using the keyboard since going on the new update is07 it's like a delayed reaction when I'm typing

Had you bothered to search this forum before posting (forum etiquette) you would have had the answer to your question "Has anyone else had this?"

I recently updated my iTunes to the new version. For some reason the titles and details of songs on the SONGS page do not appear, although the songs will play. Has anyone else had this problem? Every other page seems to be ok.

I recently updated my iTunes to the new version. When I opened it I found that there were no details listed on the SONGS page. On all other pages the relevant pictures/details appear. Although there are no details showing on the songs page, the songs are obviously there as when you click on a line it plays the song that should be listed. Has anyone else had this problem? (I am using a Windows XP Pro system on my Laptop).

Did anyone ever suggest you reset your PRAM?
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=2238
Also might want to try resetting the SMC, although I
doubt there's an issue there.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304123
I'm getting tired of people who supposedly know what
they're doing simply guessing that resinstalling the
OS might solve the issue. It's like trying to dissect
a frog with a sledge hammer, and wondering why you
didn't learn anything about anatomy in the process.
These sorts of things, although bizarre, should be
(and probably are) fixable without major surgery.
Thanks for the suggestion... but I think my first question would be why these parameters would need re-setting? This is a new machine... It has never been shut down hard. It is used at most 10 hours per week... mostly using Office 2004 for MAC. I need to figure this out as I will soon need it as a Cs2/CS3 - Aperture workhorse.
I too agree that it is best not to use a sledge when a scalpel is needed... but as a novice to the MAC world I may have been misled by Apple support. I seems to have fixed the symptoms ( some) but appears NOT to have addressed the cause... which is what I am after.
Would TechTool Pro detect a bad HD or RAM?
Thanks....

fair enough. No need for any unnecessary posts either. You issue had been addressed ad nauseum already in this forum had you bothered to search this forum (as forum etiquette would dictate) before posting.
In any case, I hope that your problem was solved.

And this is what happens when I click properties and 'search for solutions': http://i47.tinypic.com/2iu3vrc.jpg (the box disappears after that, apparently having done nothing, when I search online for software it informs me my computer already has the best/latest installed)
