How to stop an iPhone from being hacked

Can an iPhone be hacked through your iCloud account or email account (meaning your Apple ID). I have found disturbing things on the internet to monitor phones such as auto-forward.com. For about $70 you can monitor everything on a smart phone. Of course they're disclaimer is that being a parent, you want to make sure what your kids are up to and it says "not to be used for illegal purposes". But I am an adult and someone is monitoring me. My Apple ID password only works when this person wants it to work. My email and texts disappear.
HOW DO I STOP THIS?? I have already traded my phone in changed apple IDs, the techs at the apple store found strange software diagnostics.
Law enforcement is not very tech savvy. Can data forensics trace the person doing this? About $2000, but worth it to catch the stalker.

Your Apple ID can be compromised. That would allow a miscreant to buy things using your account, access your iCloud information and potentially wipe the phone remotely. If your concerned about that, make sure that you use a complex password and 2 step verification. Make sure your recovery email account is also secure.

You should also put a password on your phone to prevent people from gaining physical access to it.
Don't believe everything you read on the internet. In order to use such software on an iPhone, someone would need to have access to your phone in order to jailbreak it. If you restore the phone as new and follow the advice above, no one will be monitoring your phone (except possibly the government and they are not going to be deleting your texts and emails).
Best of luck.

How to stop the Dialog from being dragged

I was hoping that someone could tell me when calling a Dialog from Jframe, a how to stop the Dialog from being dragged
while a dialog is showing.
When it is visible I can still click and drag the Dialog
I want to set it so you can not drag it until the dialog has be closed.

If you don't have access to the parent frame, a "hack" that usually works:
Frame frame = Frame.getFrames()[0];
if (null != frame && frame instanceof JFrame){
JFrame jf = (JFrame)frame;
JDialog jd = new JDialog(jf, "title");
... code here ...
As each JFrame (or Frame) is opened, its stored in the array of Frames that you can get. Same thing with Dialog.getDialogs(). Almost always, at least so far for me I've never had this problem, the [0] index is the main window opened, or the parent/top frame. I'd put the check in there to be safe and make sure its a JFrame and usually you'll only have the one JFrame.

How to stop volume icon from being displayed randomly

How to stop volume icon from being displayed randomly

Thanks for the quick response.
I have a number of slides which act as a training module. The quiz follows this. All the answers to the quiz are in the module slides. I'd like the user to be able to see which questions they're failing on, but not be shown the answers, as, if they are failing the quiz, the whole module needs to be reviewed and the test retaken.
If this isn't possible, I'll probably just remove the review option, thereby meaning my retake button can stay, and the user can just go back and re-read the module slides to learn the answers.
Thanks

How to stop an email from being sent after I hit send?

How can I immediately stop an email from being sent after clicking "send"?
I can't seem to find any info on this. I am assuming that it is impossible. Correct?

When sending the emails with larger attachments that take a little time to actually upload and get out, you can open the activity viewer by pressing command-0 (or is it command-o?--)--it may also be under the window menu at the top--I'm not at my Mac right now to check. The activity viewer has a stop button on it. After you stop it, you should be able to either delete the email from the outgoing mail folder or drag that email to another folder, such as the drafts folder. I've done this a few times without a problem.

How to stop an idoc from being processed further

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement where i have to stop the idoc from being processed in an user exit.
I have to stop the idoc and give a suitable status message over there.
It would be highly helpful if anybody tells me how to stop the idoc abruptly and giv the status messsage.
Thanks in advance.
Praveen.

Hi,
Check the below link

You need to find aproper EXIT.
The avaliable options for you in the exit is
IDOC_DATA
Now if i pick the segment having shiped qty from the data record and check the same with the delivery qty your objective is half done.
When the condition fails you need to update the IDOC with Error 51 saying that this is not possible .
for that you need to bring your logic as
LOOP AT IDOC_CONTROL.
PERFORM LOGIC...
ENDLOOP.
FOR LOGIC .
All the criteria and then update the status of the IDOC then error is generated and updated to the IDOc.
PERFORM updatestatusidoc.
endform logic.
like this in
form updatestatusidoc.
IF subrc = 0 .
t_idoc_status-docnum = f_idoc_contrl-docnum.
t_idoc_status-status = c_idoc_status_ok.
t_idoc_status-msgty = 'S'. -
>denotes success
t_idoc_status-msgid = 'ZXXX'.
t_idoc_status-msgno = '000'. "
t_idoc_status-msgv1 = itab-field.
APPEND t_idoc_status.
ELSEIF subrc = 1.
t_idoc_status-docnum = f_idoc_contrl-docnum.
t_idoc_status-status = c_idoc_status_error.
t_idoc_status-msgty = 'E'. "denotes --->error
t_idoc_status-msgid = 'ZXXX'.
t_idoc_status-msgno = '001'. "
t_idoc_status-msgv1 = itab-field.
APPEND t_idoc_status.
endif.
endform.
this has to be done to make the idoc to trigger error mode.

How to stop my iPhone from opening iPhoto every time I connect it to a computer?

I want to stop my iPhone from opening iPhoto whenever I connect it to a computer. I DON'T want to disable iPhoto on the computers because I use different ones. I want to disable the iPhone from being recognised as a camera in any computer.
TAHNK YOU.

That's a privacy concern. So, if someone steals your iPhone, even though that person doesn't have the password, he/she can still have access to your personal files just by connecting your iPhone to any computer. That doesn't really make sense.

How to stop control characters from being tokenized?

In Oracle 11.2.0.3
I have documents which has embeded Arabic and so there is a control character \u202b to indicate right-to-left string. How do I stop these kinds of control characters from being tokenized. Doing a search with CONTAINS(search_string,' \u202b')>0 finds documents. Do I just add the '\u202b' as a stopword?

What lexer are you using, Amin?
I assume from what you say that the characters are getting indexed as whole tokens? If so, adding them as stopwords should work, but I'm surprised they're getting indexed at all - sounds like a fault in the "alphanumeric indentification" code to me.
I'm going to take a guess this is the World Lexer. Am I right?

How to stop table row from being split onto two pages

How do I stop a row of output from being split between two
pages. When the CFDocument loads, sometimes, the last row on a page
"spills" over onto the next. I'd like to figure out who to prevent
these "orphans" from happening, and force the row onto one page or
the other.
Here's my code for the doc... I have a sp that querys the sql
db. Using CFDocument - CF Version 7.02

If you know roughly how many lines of output will fit on a
page (you can test to find out), then you can count result lines
(you should be able to use RecordCount and do some math) and cfif
against your counter and force a page break beforehand if the next
table will be too much to fit on the page. Then just reset the
counter after you page break.

How to stop email addresses from being added to contacts

hofw do you stop email addresses from sent emails from being added automatically to contacts?

No. They are not being created by the phone. They are being created by your mail system, whether that is Exchange, Yahoo, Google, etc. They all have settings to automatically create contacts from people you correspond with. There is no setting on the phone to control this. Check the settings for your mail account with or talk to your IT department.

How to stop copied files from being automatically trashed

so this has only been happening recently, in the last 2-3 weeks.
if i choose a file, say "example.txt" and duplicate it, adding "example copy.txt" to the desktop, within a couple seconds, it gets automatically placed in the trash.
if i rename the copy to "example.2.txt" and move it back to the desktop, it'll stay. so it's not an issue of identical files being trashed. if i take it and name it back to "example copy.txt" it gets placed in the trash again automatically.
how do i stop this? it's driving me mental because i have to go retrieve everything i copy from the trash bin. i'm sure i haven't downloaded any automators or anything, so any kind of input would be beneficial.
thanks!

How to stop an iphone from "thinking" a phone no. is another iphone?

I had an iphone 4 but then switched to a different device (ported my number out) and now I can no longer receive texts from my friend with an iphone 5 who used to send me messages using iMessage because the iphone 5 continues to "think" my phone number is associated with an iphone 4. Both Verizon and Apple are working on figuring out (spent a couple of hours) how to correct this with no luck so far. btw my friend can receive my texts but when my friend replies to my texts or initiates a conversation, it shows as sent on my friend's iphone but I never receive the messages.
It has been so frustrating so as a last resort we are considering turning off iMessage altogether on my friend's iphone 5 because deleting my contact from the iphone 5 and reactivating iMessage has not helped correct the problem. Question: what can we do on the iphone 5 that can make it "think" that the phone number is no longer associated to an iphone? Or how do we simply turn off iMessage from the iphone 5?
Any ideas will help. Thank you.

Hi Htam,
Messaging is an important feature on the device! I apologize that your messages are not working properly. Let's dig a little deeper. Try the following instructions below to unregister your old iphone 4.
Go to http://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do.
Step 2
Log in with your Apple ID and password.
Step 3
Select the product you need to de-register (your iPhone, for example).
Step 4
Click ‘Unregister’.
Step 5
You’ll see the message ‘Are you sure you want to unregister and delete this product?’ – Click ‘Unregister’ again.
Keep me posted.

How to stop an iPhone from displaying in iTunes

Hello,
I have a question for the community. My father-in-law bought my mother-in-law an iPhone 4s for Christmas. I set up the iPhone for him using my laptop, now everytime she is over it shows up in my itunes. Is there a way to stop it from showing up in itunes. Its not an issue yet as its not backing up to my laptop yet. I would like to set up her iphone to automatically sync to her desktop at her house. However, I do not want her iPhone to back-up to my computer. Thank you for any help you can provide.
Scott

I guess you have enabled WIFI SYNC for her on your iTunes.
Now you need to get her iPhone to connect to your device. Once connected, select her iPhone under "Devices" on iTunes, go to the right Pane, under "Summary" tab, scroll down to uncheck "Sync this iPhone over WIFI" box, then click the APPLY button on the lower right window. After that you can disconnect and it will not show up on your itunes in future unless is connected with USB cable.

How to stop your iPhone from recording you

There are 3 ways:
- Apple does it for everyone (likely very soon)
- Remove your battery (Hmmm, but how? It's built-in. Exactly, hmmm is the right word. The only way to properly disarm any device is to spray liquid nitrogen to freeze the battery rendering the device dead. (DON'T do it - it will kill your iPhone!)
- by using a GPS simulator to output fake signals indicating any time/location you desire. Also known as a GPS jammer. (least likely since it's illegal unless you're for example Jason Bourne, they are also very expensive and used by various militaries around the world). There are two frequencies that GPS work on: public, non-military use (1575.42 MHz) and one used only the US military (1227.6 MHz). Because GPS uses radio waves, these waves can be jammed, though very expensive technical devices and expertise are needed for this purpose. Again, these are illegal to own by any civilian but it does not mean we cannot talk about their existence.
Edit: (4th way)
- Stop freaking out, use a case with a built-in clip and attach it to your belt/jeans/etc. Safeguard it and always be aware of it and treat it as if it was your passport or something else or high value.

How to stop music folder from being created when changing media folder

When I try to change the media folder location, a new "music" folder is created - how do I stop this from happening (I already have a music folder that I want it to default to, but when I try to select it, it creates another music sub folder)
This is a new issue - I have been using itunes for years without ever having this problem...

That's how itunes 9 works, now. The top-level folder is considered the "Media" folder and there are music, podcast, movie, audiobook, etc subfolders.
Which is better in a way, since before itunes 9, everything was dumped in a music folder, even audiobooks that weren't music.

How to stop mouse pointer from being included on screenshots

Hey guys I was hoping someone could help me with this problem.
I am creating a software simulation and have decided to use Captivate 6. When capturing the appropriate screenshots i have noticed that the mouse pointer is being included with these. I DO NOT want the mouse pointer to be included within the screenshot.
I know how to disable the mouse pointer when setting my preferences before creaing the simulation, however, the mouse pointer is still being included in the screenshots. Here is an example below.. Can anyone help me?
Thanks,
Garrett
Example: I orginally wanted to show the user's log in menu, but once I clicked "Login" the mouse pointer stuck to the screenshot. I don't want this mouse pointer to be there

I actually chose Demo and assessment. The mouse is not what I want to see in the slides. The timeline does not show a mouse at all because I have that functionality disabled. What I really want is to essentially replicate an application. I want the user to be able to start this captivate project from a flash drive and actually have the applications GUI with limited functionality (for training purposes). I am starting to think there is a problem with the application I am trying to replicate. I have a software product that I must start on a virtual machine. Once the virtual machine is up and running then can I actually start the application. I have already done two of these with different applications and had no problem at all with the mouse pointer disappearing. This one, however, is being very difficult. Maybe its because im using QNX?
