"Microsoft" calls to tell you that your PC has been hacked

I just got a call from someone claiming to be from Microsoft. He told me that my computer was infected.
He said that Microsoft knew that the PC was hacked because of the error reports I chose to send them when the pop up came up.
You probaly have seen the ones like this.
This was ineresting since I know that no personal information goes to Microsoft when you send the error reports.
Knowing that ther are a large number of scams like this, I asked for the phone number to call them back. He said that he would call me back. Then after pushing some more he gave me a bunch a random numbers.
If you look at Microsoft's Forum and the have a thread called "Phone warnings from 'Microsoft.'"
Bascially, Mircosoft didn't call me to warn me that my PC was hacked. Someone was fishing trying to get acess to my PC.
If you get a call, beware.

Does iOS7 tell you if your phone has been fully charged?
Yes, currently I'm using iPhone 4s with iOS 7.1, following behaviour I could observed,
When batter is charging--> Top right corner in the iPhone charging symbol is filled with white color.
When batter is fully charged--> Top right corner in the iPhone charging symbol is filled with black color.

HT201365 Does find my phone have a history that shows where your phone has been like in the last 24-72 hours?

All you may infer is the device hasn't been turned on where it can connect to Wi-Fi.
The phone may be jailbroken if there is no lock passcode to prevent access. However, the phone can be completely erased and restored as new. In this case you will have no ability to locate it or prevent it from being jailbroken.

"Please wait until your phone has been activated"

I got a refurbished phone from Asurion and it took a while to activate originally. I was able to connect to wifi, add a google account, start updating some apps. I restarted the phone and now its stuck on "Please wait until your phone has been activated" I used the sim card that was included with the phone from the larger red card. Is there any way to reset it or activate it now?

Snn5 speaks the truth, your sim will need to be activated. If you are the kind of person who prefers to do things on your own, though, there is one more option. If you've already created a myVerizon account, sign in to that, and there will be a box around the top middle that will ask you what it is that you want to do. In this box, type "activate or switch device" and it will lead you through the process.

On iTunes, while I will be putting a previous back up on my new 6, an error message saying '"your phone has been disconnected" will appear, but my phone will still be connected and nothing has been touched

I need help. I have tried it with the cord that came with my 6, as well as my iPad mini cord, and no matter what cord i use, it still shows "your phone has been disconnected", and no one is disconnecting the cord.

How do you find your phone number?

How do you find your phone number?

You can't. The iPod tuch does not have a phone number. For the Messages and FaceTime apps you use the email address that yu set them up with. With some oher texting apps like Text+, the apps assign you a phone number.

Congratulations your iPhone has been unlocked!

I decided to update my AT&T iPhone 4S 32GB last night to iOS 6.1.1. I was going to do a normal update and restore process, backed up my phone, ran the update and half way through it glitched and I had to do a factory restore. I figured I could do a manual restore from the backup I had just done so I wasn't too worried about it.
When the update / restore finished I got a screen that I haven't seen before, it Said, Congratulations your iPhone has been unlocked! To set up and sync this iPhone, click continue. The lock screen on my phone was in fact the factory fresh unlock screen so I set it up and then did a restore from the backup I had just done. Everything was restored except for my music, what a pain that is.
My question is, did my phone actually get unlocked? And is there a way to tell other than putting in another carrier's sim card? I bought the phone on contract and I still have about 6 months to go before the contract expires.

Hello,
First of all, nice to meet you here. Im sorry im just new, so must be iTunes or updating software glitches so this is all impossible. All carriers would not let phone to be unlocked when they are approaching end contract date. So try to contact AT&T and just ask them and describe what problem you have like you mention above and not hurt to ask them. Try that!

HT5163 i am not able to activate my Iphone- I have a SIM card but it keeps telling me there is no SIM card. My phone has been unlocked by Apple but keeps.

i am not able to activate my Iphone- I have a SIM card but it keeps telling me there is no SIM card. My phone has been unlocked by Apple but keeps.

i got in Manhattan from AT&T-
This error came after I updated the software since Apple confirmed and I have spoken with them and they confirmed it is officially iunlocked since I have full filled their terms of the agreement.
This phone was working earlier since i had jail broken it.
I have been using it with jail break for about 2 years now

How do you get your phone to confirm it's activation

how do you confirm your activation on your phone from the computer and also will i be able to transfer all my contacts over from my phone can someone please help

You should receive a confirmation on the screen when the activation is complete. Does the phone work to make/receive calls? If so, then it is activated and should show as your phone when you log in to MyVerizon.
You need to back up the contacts from the old phone so they are stored on Verizon's servers; then use Backup Assistant on the new phone to import them. If they are not backed up with Backup Assistant, you can reactivate the old phone, run a back up, then activate the new phone and restore the contacts from the backup.

How do you unsync your phone and sync it with another computer without losing any data?

How do you unsync your iphone, without loosing any of the music etc? As I have a new laptop and my old laptop is not working.

You need to transfer the data from your old computer to your new computer. Surely you have a backup of your old laptop. Use this and move your data to your new laptop.

How are you sure your phone has been unlocked?
