What specific symptoms are you seeing that make you suspect malware?
You need to be aware that no anti-virus software is 100% reliable at detecting malware (and they're considerably worse than that at detecting adware), and many are quite a lot worse than 100% reliable. Plus many people mistake things for malware when they really aren't. So, we need to know what behavior you're seeing before we can give you any reasonable answers.

    Have been using Lightroom on my Apple computer for years. Now, ever since upgrading to Apple's  Yosemite operating system I get an error message (150:30) every time I try to open a lightroom file. Has anyone else experienced this problem?  Also how do I subscribe to Adobe's Premium Support? Every time I've tried (through contact support) I just get taken on an unending loop.

    I think we need a lot more information.
    Exactly what does the message say?
    Exactly what files are you trying to open?
    Exactly how are you trying to open them (what menu command or button or mouse action or keyboard shortcut)?
    And lastly, what version of Lightroom are you using?

  • HT1420 How do I authorise my computer for iTunes when there is no "authorize this computer" or Advanced menu ?  When Apple say Store menu do they mean from the top of the store when logged in ?

    Where is the iTunes Store menu that has Authorize this Computer located and/or Advanced menu ? How do I authorise my computer for iTunes if I cannot find Authorize this Computer or Advanced menu ?  Thank you.

    It's done via the Store drop-down menu at the top of iTunes - if you are using iTunes 11 on a PC then pressing Alt-S should get the Store menu to appear e.g. (screenshot is from a Mac, but it should be similar on a PC) :

    help me. how to verify email apple id for ipad

    Hello, Sororkhanoom.
    To verify your Apple ID, Simply follow the link in the verification e-mail that says "Verify Now." Sign in with your current Apple ID and password, then click Verify Address.  If the verification e-mail has not been received, go to https://appleid.apple.com.  You will then need to sign in to manage your account.  Once you are signed in to your account you should see the option to "Resend Verification E-Mail".

  • How to create an apple id for your child

    how to create an apple id for your child

    You can create an id without accredit card that might be what you want.  Ten use that ID for your child's iMessage and iCloud and use your ID for iTunes and App Store on both phones. That way you can control what is purchased.  I would set up restrictions on the kid's phone with a pun that you only know and durn off in app purchases

  • HT204053 How do you change apple id for icloud if phone is already set up. Need to give each phone in my account their own apple id for icloud so that we dont receive each others messages but can still all use same id for purchases.

    How do you change apple id for icloud if phone is already set up. Need to give each phone in my account their own apple id for icloud so that we dont receive each others messages but can still all use same id for purchases.

    Settings-icloud-scroll to the bottom, select delete, if you want to keep the content select keep, otherwise it'll remove it. Then once it is done add the account information for the account you want on that phone.  Your apple ID in settings-store will remain the same and each device can still purchase/use content from that account.

  • Best Apple Computer for Video Editing (when you're on a budget)?

    I shoot video on a Canon XL2 and edit with Final Cut Express. I am looking to get a more powerful computer to edit as I currently edit on a 2007/8 MacBook with 120GB hard drive. It gets the job done but rendering takes forever and I can tell my MacBook is slowing down. What is the best apple computer for video editing? And, what would you recommend if you're on a budget? iMac? MacBook Pro? Thanks for any and all help.

    Well, depending on budget...
    Today, this would be my personal choice...

  • How can I buy apple watch  for the space black stainless steel case and the black sport band for one order?

    How can I buy apple watch  for the space black stainless steel case and the black sport band for one order?

    Unfortunately no. I asked the same question when I went to the local Apple Store for my "try on" and as of now you would have to order the watch with the metal link band and the black sports band separately.

  • How do I change Apple ID for iCloud account?

    I changed Apple ID online because my email address changed. How can I change Apple ID for iCloud?

    If you renamed your iCloud ID and need to change it on your device, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new ID.  This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your device, but not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account, your iCloud data will reappear on your device when you sign back in.
    To avoid losing photo stream photos, save them to your camera roll (if not already there) before deleting the account.  To do this, open your my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.
