  • How do I get rid of these ads from my computer

    I recently installed a few things on my macbook pro (which I'm now realizing was stupid) and now on safari certain words on different website turn up green and double underlined. When you scroll over it, and ad pops up like this:

    How do I get rid of it? I already emptied my cache and cookies and checked for any unwanted extensions. I set my safari security setting to block pop-up ads, and I installed ad block. They're still there!
    Also, I tried finding the source and I can't seem to figure out what's causing it. I'm 95% sure I deleted everything I installed earlier, but that didn't solve anything.

    You installed the "DownLite" trojan, perhaps under a different name. Remove it as follows.

    You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that the DownLite developer has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing, has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight is inexcusable and has compromised the value of Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.

  • I upgraded to iPad2 from original. How do I get rid of original iPad info on computer so I can synch computer with iPad2 info?, I upgraded to iPad2 from original. How do I get rid of original iPad info on computer so I can synch computer with iPad2 info?

    I gave my daughter my original iPad when I upgraded to iPad2. I deleted iTunes and Quick Time from my computer thinking it would get rid of the old info from the original iPad.  I reinstalled iTunes and Quick Time and tried synching my new iPad2.  It downloaded the old info from my original iPad to my new iPad2 and now it calls my new iPad2 Linda's iPad.  How do I get rid of all the old info and just have my new iPad2 info? I don't mind that it put somethings from my original iPad (movies, books, some - not all - my music, etc). I can't even synch the bluetooth of the iPad2 to the bluetooth of my PC (I think it's all related somehow).

    Why would you not want to keep all of the data, apps, music, photos etc that you had on your first iPad on your new iPad? Don't you want to keep all of that content? You bought the apps, music etc with your iTunes account I would assume so why not keep them?
    Deleting iTunes simply removes the application from your computer - not the content in your iTunes library.
    If you want to rename your new iPad - connect to your PC - launch iTunes - double click on the iPad name on the left side of the iTunes window and you can type in the new name. Then hit the return key on your keyboard.

    Sync the Bluetooth of the iPad2 to your PC? You can't sync the two devices via Bluetooth. You pair devices via Bluetooth but that would do no good for you anyway. You can't transfer content from the iPad to the PC via Bluetooth.

  • I just upgraded iTunes to version 11, how do I get rid of shared music on my computer?

    I have two computers in my house: my dad's, which is basically the family computer, and my personal one. I just upgraded iTunes to 11 only to find all the music on his computer is on mine as well, even though it wasn't there before. All of these new things have little cloud icons in the corner. I really don't want this stuff on my iTunes, but I can't figure out how to get rid of it. I've tried deleting it to no avail, and I can't find any way to turn off the Cloud sharing. Is there any fix for this, or will I just have to downgrade to 10.7?

    You want all music on your iPhone removed from the iPhone?
    If so and you have Sync Music selected under the Music tab or setting for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, deslect Sync Music under the Music tab or setting for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes followed by a sync.

  • How do I get rid of iCloud on my Windows computer?

    So I downloaded the new version of iTunes onto my Windows P.C. After about a month of use, some crappy thing called iCloud mysteriously entered my computer.  I did not download it, nor did any of my family.  It was not there one day and the next it was.  iCloud stole all of my iTunes music, deleted the stuff not from the iTunes Store and then decided it would engrain itself into my computer so now I can't get rid of it.  I already looked at programs and it is not in there so I can't delete it from my computer.  I went to the iCloud website and looked around there and I couldn't even find my music there, let alone delete the dang thing.  iCloud also deletes the music I manually download from CD's; I download the music, it is in iTunes, then I exit iTunes and get back in and that music is gone.  This is very, very frustrating and strange.  Anybody got any answers? 
                                                                                                                   Thanks!  JG14

    Gotcha..on a few things. I get that it has to be downloaded (you would think). I didnt download it, but I did so click on the newer version of the itunes. I did have all my music backed up..and put it back rightly so where it belonged in itunes, when I reset. I went to iCloud and checked to see if I could actually sign in..nothing. What the? I do have an apple id account,(dont know if that matters), so Im assuming that I dont have an account with iCloud, yet there was this little cloud in front of all my music. Just within the last couple of weeks.  When I tryed to play a song, it would say downloading from store. When I plugged in my ipod to sync, it would ask me to reset. Along with my son's ipod. GRRR. I would have to click on any and every single one I wanted, to get it on to the ipod. Imported cd's disappeared completely when I logged out, along with any playlist I made..just like what happed with our friend JG14.  Very confusing ****. I agree with you, that it has to be some sort of download or sign in or something, but this really had me stumped too. I admit that things pop up, you might accidently click n them, with Itunes or whatever one gets for their device, but this was unreal. In my research, Ive discovered that there are quite a few complaints for this iCloud business, if your not connected to internet, you cant play your stuff. I know you dont have to pay again, but thats still a pain. Its easy to disable on a phone (apparantly). But really Csound1, to disable iCloud and risk losing what you ALREADY had?.. I already had all my stuff, before that unfriendly little cloud. maybe, Ive become electronically spoiled, I dont like having to re-download everytime. Yuck and Ick. Thanks for answering me btw.

  • How can I get rid of email address not in use

    I have an email address which I used to set up my Apple ID. That address is now disabled so I have gone to my details and updated them to the new address. But I can't sign in to iCloud or update my apps as it keeps telling me to sign in using the now disabled email address. In iTunes I can change it to my new address, but not apps or iCloud. When I go to reset the password I am asked to change the password in my new address but that's not what I want to do. I've tried all the different passwords I can think of when using the old address but none work. Also I selected personal details rather than email as it would never get through, obviously, and so put in my birthday.  But they say my birthday date is not in their records!  What?  So I go to my details and there it is, in black and white, exactly what I was typing in! This is driving me insane. Is there any way I can delete my original, without having to put in the password for that ID?  I really hope someone can help me.  I did see a section somewhere which said did I want to delete an old email address but again, I had to put in the password for that email address and I DON'T HAVE IT!
    By the way, I am an OAP. So I would appreciate it if anyone who can help makes it easy to understand!  Many thanks.

    After you sign in with the old ID and are presented with the option to keep the information on the iPad, you should say yes to that. Then you should be able to delete the account on the device. After you delete the account, you can - or you should be able to - sign in with the new Apple ID.
    I tried these very same steps on my Pod Touch and it worked exactly the way that I'm describing. When you sign in again with the new ID, you will be given the option to merge Reminders, Bookmarks, Etc, with those in iCloud.com. I selected the option to merge all of the information. Nothing was duplicated and everything was exactly as it was before I deleted the iCloud account.
    So ... sign into your new ID in Settings>iTunes & App Store. Tap the old ID and sign out. Then sign in with the new ID. Then delete the old iCloud account like I explained above and then sign in with the new Apple ID, all of your purchased content and iCloud content should be good to go.

  • How do you get rid of email accounts under advanced

    how do you change the advanced account

    If you mean the one's shown under Allow Sending From, you don't.  Just decide which one you want to use and don't use the other.  If you want to discontinue using iCloud mail all toghether, go to Settings>iCloud and turn Mail to Off.

    Apple does not give away its products.

    I recently updated my Ipad2 to iOS7 and suddenly have 794 emails in my inbox which were previously reviewed and deleted.  How can I get rid of them without doing one at a time?

    You should be syncing your contacts with an app on your computer or cloud service (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc), and not relying on a backup.  If you haven't been doing this, start now and then restore your old backup.  You will then be able to sync the new contacts back into the phone.  However, you will lose all messages, etc newer thant the backup.

    I have a new iPad. I am using Comcast as my email provider but when I send a message, it pulls up the facebook email addresses for my  contacts  instead of the addresses stored in my comcast account.  How can I get rid of the Facebook email addresses? The comcast addresses are stored in the comcast (xfinity) app.  I do not use the "mail" or "contacts" apps ....I go straight to comcast (xfinity).  I wish I could start over!!!  thanks.
    iPad

    I could be wrong, but it sounds like Facebook imported to your contacts.  I have the Xfinity app on my new ipad, too, but none of my stored contacts from the online version are showing, only what I manually entered into the iPads contacts are there.  When I did add the FB app, I did not grant it permission to push and pull from my ipad (not a fan of FB knowing every detail about me), so that may be where our difference lies.  You could try to open the app and change your privacy settings, or delete it and then reinstall without granting permissions to integrate.
    I'm sure someone here with a lot more knowledge then me can probably diagnose your issue better, though.  Good luck!

  • HT204053 I created a new apple id because the previous one no longer exists as email (domain had to be cancelled). I keep seeing the old one pop up in my iPhone for which I don't remember the password. How can I get rid of it???

    I created a new apple id because the previous one no longer exists as an email (domain had to be cancelled). I keep seeing the old one pop up in my iPhone for which I don't remember the password. How can I get rid of it??? Or how can I reset the password if the email doesn't exist??? I also tried answering a question (my date of birth) but it says it's wrong.
    I'm really frustrated with the apple id!!!
    Frustrated!!!

    In one of the help pages for managing your Apple ID (http://support.apple.com/kb/HE40), it shows two separate sections, one for Apple ID and one for Primary Email address. When I go to manage my Apple ID, I see only a single section for both. Can the two be 'separated', especially when you face the situation of having to discontinue your email address for some reason?
    I also noticed that when navigating to Apple ID Support Communities, it shows my nickname 'dishdy'. How and when did I insert this? In the current sequence for creating an Apple ID I don't see this. In my current profile I don't see this.
    In any case, I have freed myself from my previous Apple ID (@artemis.it) on my iPhone.
    Thanks for your help.
