  • How did my iPhoto get locked

    How did my iPhoto get locked.  I attached a photo to a yahoo email.  Is yahoo involved (as usual)

    I'll guess at what you're on about:
    Couple of things to try:
    Restart your mac and try launch iPhoto again.
    If that fails:
    Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
    Look there for a file called ‘iPhoto’Lock.data or similar. Drag it to the Desktop. Make no other changes. Start iPhoto. Does that help?
    If not: Where is your iPhoto Library stored? If it's on an External Disk, what format is that?

  • Im having Iphone 3GS purchased from USA right now im in India so if i update my ios from 4 to 5 will my phone get locked..? if so can how to unloack that? i want to update the ios 5 please help

    im using iphone 3GS with ios 4.1;the iphone is purchased from USA and unlocked;I live in India so if I update to IOS 5 will my phone get locked? if so how to unlock in that case? please help

    No 3GS sold in the US was ever unlocked officially. Any attempts to update a hacked or un-officially unlocked iPhone will likely result in it being relocked to the original carrier.

  • Wrong phone listed as returned and still paying for returned phone, how did I finally get a credit?

    I went to the Rancho Santa Margarita store back in February. On the 16th I switched to the Edge program and added my boyfriend. We bought 2 phones under the Edge, however, we needed to return his phone the next day due to no service at his work.
    The sales representative was great and returned the phone, however, on the receipt he listed my phone as being returned. I have been back to the store twice to get it fixed, called them multiple times as well and still no credit for the phone I no longer have in my possession.
    I finally did a live chat with a representative online with Verizon and he said he would look into and take care of it. But recently, I received an email from him saying that there is no record that the phone was returned so I would need to go back to the store that apparently won't or can't help me either.
    It is obvious that the wrong phone was listed on the return receipt since I am using the returned phone listed on my receipt and still paying for it as well. The other phone I am paying for is not even connected to a phone number. So it should be common sense and obvious that the wrong phone was listed as being returned because how could it be if I am using still using the phone that was apparently returned and it is connected to my phone line.
    I have spent hours trying to get this resolved and have now paid $275.12 on a phone that is in Verizon's possession but they won't and/or don't care to acknowledge the mistake on their part of listing the wrong phone returned.
    How can I finally get this resolved and get my money back? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. I have never had bad customer service until now and would hate to cancel my account, but am very close to that point.

    Ok so I am still perplexed by this situation and why Verizon chooses to ignore my pleas to help me get a refund for a phone that I no longer possess since I returned it to them the next day. I am still having to pay for this phone and am getting extremely upset at this situation.
    To make matters worse since I posted about this situation at the end of January, I did have one person contact me from Verizon and ask me for more information. I provided that information and have not heard back as well as now all receipts related to this incident have been removed from my account. Well I did keep a copy of these on my computer and on several zip drives so I still have the proof of them continuing to charge me for two phones when it shows a receipt of one being returned even though they listed the wrong one.
    I sure hope this was a mistake and not a cover up to try and eliminate all evidence of this mistake.
    Should I go to the better business bureau with this issue? Has anyone else had a similar situation and if so how did you finally get it resolved.
    Thank you in advance for your information and suggestions.

  • I got a Iphone 4 from UK and got unlocked in india, can i take the software updates? will my phone get locked due to this?

    I got a Iphone 4 from UK and got unlocked in india, can i take the software updates? will my phone get locked due to this?

    Your phone was "hacked" to unlock it. So, if you update software or restore your phone, it will be re-locked to the carrier it was originally locked to in the UK.

  • Bloodwork Results incorrect - How did this record get entered into my HealthVault?

    I recently had bloodworm done at LabCorp and viewed my results online in my HealthVault.  Shortly thereafter, another record, dated December 10, 2013, appeared in my HealthVault.  How did this record get into my HealthVault?  The record
    was a result of testing done by LifeLine Screening, but, when contacted, they said that they DID NOT put that record in my HealthVault.  They asked if I had given my LifeLine Screening report to any doctors.  I did, in fact, give my record to my
    doctor on Feb. 3, 2014.  I then contacted that Doctor's office and they stated that the record from LifeLine Screening had NOT been entered into their system as of yet (Their system is Ochsner)  So, I don't know how the LifeLine Screening test results
    got into my HealthVault online.  Also, there is a discrepancy in the LifeLine Screening report that they sent me directly through the mail, and the results that appear in my HealthVault.  My eGFR on the LifeLine Screening report from 12-10-2013 is
    "55", whereas, the result in the HealthVault record reflects "eGFR If NonAfricn Am 61"  How do you explain this? 

    Hello Rose,
    My name is Josh, I'm a member of the HealthVault support team, I work closely with Tomas whom initially responded to your concerns.  I was hoping to find out whether there was anything we could do to assist you in resolving this issue.  Your
    concerns are extremely important to us, and we want to ensure this has been resolved.  We're a very responsive team, and I've taken this issue on as a personal concern, but I don't yet have enough information to continue investigating.  If this has
    been rectified to your satisfaction or is no longer occurring, we'd really appreciate you letting us know how it was resolved and/or what may have changed.  Just a quick response in this thread would be terrific.
    If this is still an issue that you're seeing, following Tomas's instructions about creating a ticket would be very valuable and would help provide us the information we need to move our investigation forward. 
    We hope to hear from you soon Rose

  • I am trying to reset my 4s iphone to the original settings and erase all my content. It is asking for a passcode which i have not used before. How/where do I get the passcode?

    I am trying to reset my 4s iphone to the original settings and erase all my content. It is asking for a passcode which i have not used before. How/where do I get the passcode?

    It needs the restrictions passcode. You or someone with physical access to the phone had to set it. It can not set itself.

  • HT1937 my phone was locked. I applied to at&t. they completed operations. I want to know if my phone is locked or unlocked

    my phone was locked. I applied to at&t. they completed operations. I want to know if my phone is locked or unlocked. my serial number 65112430A4s

    Did you follow the instructions AT&T provided for unlocking your iphone?
    You should not leave your serial number on a public forum.
    No one here would have any idea if your iphone is locked or not.

  • HT201365 When i want to reset my old i-phone it prompts me for a restriction passcode. I do not know what it is - how do i retrieve it?

    I purchased an i-phone 5s and transferred all info from the i-phone 4s to it. I now want to give the 4 to someone else but need to reset it first. It however requires a restriction passcode which I do not have.
    When i want to restore it on my computer within i-tunes it prompts me to turn off 'find my i-phone' but if i want to do that it says there is no internet connection, surely due to the fact that I am now using a new sim card on the 5s
    What to do?

    Put the sim back in the old phone and turn Find My iPhone off. Then you can reset it.

  • Have a company based itunes account, trying to share itunes on bank owned devices. can't get all devices to keep our shared password on them without requesting user to enter password (which i am not giving them)

    i am an IT manager for a bank.  we have several company owned iphones. WE have also implemented a mobile device management system to manage our iphones. 
    We setup acompany based itunes account, trying to share itunes on bank owned devices.  This way i can add bank approved apps to the devices through our itunes account and push out to the iphones, and no one can download any other non bank approved apps.
    it has been working ok. but recently i had one user who came in.  He went to enter in his itunes account on the phone and didn't work. So then came back and my staff and myself have (as much as we can see) removed his email account itunes login from all sections in settings. and entered in our itunes account information, but when you go to the app store, and hit upgrade, it still shows his email account for itunes.  I feel like i can't get all devices to keep our shared password on them without requesting user to enter password (which i am not giving them)
    How can i troubleshoot his device. i tried changing password 5 times today, rebooted device, and no change.
    Jenn McGlynn

    i have an MDM application, and i push out the apps i want them to have with our IT apple id account. for some reason when two approved apps needed updating last week, they prompted him for our password. (which i told him to bring phone in and i would enter password).
    but somehow he went to try to enter his personal to make it work (don't know why)
    somewhere it's keeping his personal email. i went into itunes/apps and our apple id is in there.
    there is nothing in icloud b/c we do not allow icloud, so that's clear.

  • My iphone is stuck in recovery mode and itunes will not recognize my phone. I've tried pretty much every trick i can and i still do not know what to do. Someone please help me

    My iphone is stuck in recovery mode and itunes will not recognize my phone. I've tried pretty much every trick i can and i still do not know what to do. Someone please help me

    I've done all of these, even trying a different USB port, and still, nothing. This is really confusing. Windows 8.1 said something to do with USB malfunction or something and nothing works. I need to restore my iPhone quickly and nothing has happened. My cable is not genuine Apple product. iTunes makes the noise that it makes when I connect the device, but it doesn't say 'iPhone is in recovery mode' or even say 'iPhone' in the corner. I am really fed up and would really appreciate a response.
    Thanks,
    Nathan.

  • How did my site get hacked?

    Earlier this week, 7 sites on 3 different servers (Go-daddy, Lunar Pages, and another ) were allegedly hacked and blocked in Firefox, Chrome and Google search results.
    I use iObit and advanced system care to keep my pc clean. My pc, as scanned by these programs has no malware. I have over 40 sites in my Dreamweaver site definitions
    On 6 of the sites, I removed everything on the server, re-uploaded the sites and requested a review.
    On 1 of the sites, the hosting provider scanned the site and found nothing.
    On 1 of the sites, I did nothing and requested a review.
    All 7 sites were restored/unblocked.
    I've spent hour upon hour researching including but not limited to stopbadware.org and antiphishing.org and can't figure out how/why this happened and since my pc is allegedly clean,
    I am wondering:
    A) if there is a security hole in the Dreamweaver communications with Adobe.
    B) They were false Positives =( My webmaster tools currently say Google has not detected any malware on this site.)
    I've always practiced "safe computing" and don't know what else to do to prevent this from happening again.
    Has anyone else had a problem such as this recently?

    Sites, especially popular ones, often become targets to hackers & robots who find vulnerabilities on the server or in your forms & scripts which allows them to inject malicious code into web pages.  I had this happen about 2 years ago on a  dedicated server.   Fortunately, the files on my local drive were clean so I was able to replace the remote site in a few hours.
    How did it happen?  According to the hosting company nothing was wrong at their end.  So we may never know exactly how the hackers got in.   The server hosted 5 sites at the time but only one site was hacked. 
    WordPress and other open source frameworks are especially attractive to hackers. If you use  PHP & MySql, take necessary security precautions.
    Use strong passwords for everything.  A minimum of 17 characters,  alpha-numeric, upper & lower, with symbols.  If you can remember your passwords, they're not strong enough.  Write them down.  And change your passwords regularly.
    Consider getting Secure Live which stops & blocks attackers IP addresses and sends them to the FBI's database.  https://www.securelive.com/
    Good luck!
