How can I verify virus warning from Apple is valid?

I just received a notice from the "Apple security center" warning me that Apple Web Security has detected Trojans and is ready to remove them all. This is followed by options to Cancel or Remove all. The claim is that 66 viruses have been found.
I am suspicious to follow this warning in case it is not legitimately from Apple.
My Apple Care is expired and I cannot find a way to contact them to verify Apple sent this warning.

Hi spartan, I've just received a similar warning.
Check this video:

It is a trojan horse. Once you clic on any button it will download an "anti-malware.zip" file which has a "inavd.pkg" file that should have an anti-malware. In case you've downloaded them, just delete them and empty the trash. Finally, close that tab and contact apple: http://www.apple.com/contact/feedback.html
Good luck!

HT202667 how can I remove credit card from apple id ?

i don't want to use apple id with credit card anymore i purchased enough apps for my apple device so now i wanna remove it so how can i remove credit card from apple id

On your computer's iTunes you should be able to edit your payment info by going into the Store > View Account menu option and logging into your account, and on your account's details page there should be a payment link. If you are doing it on your iPhone then tap on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and tap on 'View Apple ID' on the popup and log into your account - that should also give you a payments link on your account's page.
Changing payment info : http://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT1918
If you don't get the 'none' option on the payment details screen : http://support.apple.com/en-gb/TS5366

HT4437 I want to develop a software with AirPaly service for business things. How can I get the permission from Apple?

I want to develop a software with AirPaly service for business things. How can I get the permission from Apple?
This one is used in Windows laptop, and I want it support AirPlay service, but Apple doesn't publish the AirPlay protocol.
Many thanks.

Create a developer account, then access he developers forums and see if you can find the information that way
The other option would be to simply contact Apple directly.

Take it to an authorized service center or Apple Store in the country where the phone originated. Apple does not sell iPhones in Pakistan, nor will they ship them to Pakistan.

How can i speak with someone from apple live chat??

How can i speak with someone from apple live chat??I want to ask something

Yes, that is the key to it. In North America live chat is available, though I would question the value of it. It usually takes ten times longer to 'chat' than to talk or even send an eMail. Why don't you ask your question here; by far the most realistic means of attracting a reasonably accurate answer.

How can I export email addresses from apple mail?

How can I export email addresses from Apple Mail?
Just to be CRISTAL CLEAR please don't reply with export instructions from the address book.....not interested in this.
I have customers that fill-out a request form online, then the data is sent to our database on our server, and another copy is sent to my email account. The server database got corrupted and is now lost. The only data left are in my email app called APPLE MAIL. I have created Filtered Folders so the data is just in one Folder, not mixed with all other emails. Is there a way to export the email names & addresses from APPLE MAIL to a CVS file or Excel file?
Again this is not a question related to Apple Address Book. This is ONLY for Apple MAIL exporting!
Thanks

There is a collection of AppleScripts called Mail Scripts you can download at this link.
http://homepage.mac.com/aamann/Mail_Scripts.html
The script to use from the collection of scripts is Add Addresses (Mail) which adds addresses found in the selected messages (in the header fields "From", "To", "Cc", and "Bcc") to the Address Book. This is much more flexible than the "Add Sender to Address Book" available in Mail and provides a convenient way for creating mailing lists.

Hello. I have bought an iMac in Ft.Lauderdale but now i'm in Ukraine. I lost the receipt and in order to get my iMac fixed they told me to get an invoice from Apple. So how can i get an invoice from Apple?

If you bought it from an Apple Store you will need to contact the Apple Store to see if they can help you. This forum is a user to user forum and frankly I've never seen a question like yours come up. If you purchased it with a credit card then it should be pretty simple to get a copy of your statement and see if the "they" you are referring to will accept that as proof of purchase.
Good luck!

How can i verify an authorization from your financial institution

i got an e-mail from Itunes saying " that there is a billing issue with one
of your iTunes Store orders and you will be unable to resume purchasing with
your iTunes Store account and also this is the reason why you are receiving an
invalid security code error. Unfortunately, the iTunes Store has been unable to
verify an authorization from your financial institution and has not received
payment for order MHLVM223B4. As soon as this order is paid for, you'll be able
to resume purchasing with your iTunes Store account." how can i fix this problem?

Contact your financial institution.

How can I get a document from apple online store with IMEI number on it?

Hi
I got my iPhone stolen, and currently have insurance requesting a document with IMEI number on it, I called apple and they say this doesn't exist?
I tried to explain to insurance, but they won't listen. I have sent in packing list, shipping notification, and scan of sticker on box with IMEI and serial number.
2nd email
Thank you for your email. We require a document with the full IMEI number on it. Once this is received we will be able to continue processing the claim.
Kind regards
1st email
thank you for sending us your documents, unfortunately the proof of purchase you have sent in does not show the serial number or the imei number, so i cannot match it to the side of the box label to use the two together for a proof of ownership .To enable us to continue with the processing of your claim, we require a valid proof of purchase for the mobile phone you are claiming for.
This must confirm the make, model and IMEI (International Manufacturers Electronic Identity) number of your phone and can be either a letter from your airtime provider on their letter-headed paper, a copy of the original receipt or despatch note that was provided to you when your phone was purchased. (this is not a air time bill)
Thanks a lot,

I bought from Apple online store, and IMEI only appears on sticker on the box which I've peeled off , scanned and emailed. Called apple and they said document doesn't exist with IMEI number on it. I've saw on another post someone managed to get apple to send them receipt with all the info within 3 days so I'll call back tomorrow, just the guy I spoke today didn't think it was possible.
Thanks

There is no way to activate it without his password. It's not a good idea to purchase from someone unless you have a way to contact them and they are trustworthy. Sorry, but you can't use that iPhone at all.

How can I re-download Lion from apple store?

I just puchases Snow Leopard in order to upgrade to Lion. I had purchased Lion for my Imac desktop from the Apple Store. I have read items on how to redownload from the apple store with no success. I have seen where you go to purchases and hold down the option key and click purchases and it should show Lion. It did not work. Any other ideas?

The 'someone" who sent you a screen shot was me.   The reason that Lion does not show up is, as I wrote, because it self deletes on completion of the download.
To see hidden purchases you need to sign in to your account ... Apple Logo > App store > menu bar 'Store' > View my account.
The page that comes up will be Account Information.   There are 3 sub sections.
Apple ID summary, iTunes in the cloud and settings.   To the right of iTunes in the cloud is a reference to view Hidden purchases. Click on that, and if you have any they will show.
If these details are still not clear enough you could as a last resort contact ...
iTunes support.    http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
or
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/   - There are a variety of solutions to problems on the left hand side of the page.
