  • HT4623 How can i find out if my iPhone is unlock and i can keep it unlock after the update iOS 7?

    I unlock my iphone 4s, 4 months ago on line, but I don't know if it was a hard or from the carrier(official) unlock or only a software, the iphone doesn't have Cydia or any other Jailbreaking app, then Do you recomend me to do the Update or not ? please help

    If it was unlocked by anyone other than the carrier it was originally locked to, it was hacked. You can not get help for your hacked phone here.

  • How can I find out if my iphone has been synced to another computer? (Backup/Sync Privacy)

    So it would seem easy for someone (lets just say a girlfriend for example) to plug my iPhone into her computer while I am staying the night and backup to iTunes.  I have my settings to "require a passcode immediately", however there was one day there was access to my passcode at her place while I was not there. So my question is three-fold:
    - How can I find out if my iphone has synced with another computer/iTunes (possible history in the iPhone)?
    - Are there additional privacy settings to make sure no one can backup my iPhone by plugging it into their iTunes?
    - If it has been backed up to another computer is there anything that can be done.
    One reason I ask this is because earlier this year her phone was backed up to my iTunes on accident.  I did not know it was there until months later, but was able to access it with software.
    Thanks!

    You don't.  Nothing gets stored on the iPhone about what computers the device has been backed up to.
    - Are there additional privacy settings to make sure no one can backup my iPhone by plugging it into their iTunes?
    Yes, it's called a passcode lock.
    - If it has been backed up to another computer is there anything that can be done.
    No.  You might consider changing your Apple ID password to be on the safe side, though, as well as your security questions.

  • HT3965 how can I find out if my Iphone has been jailbroken, I think my ex did somthing to my phone to spy on me

    How can I find out if my Iphone has been jailbroken?!, I think my ex has installed spyware to spy on me, an I have red that the iphone has to be jb for spyware to work. Can anybody help me?

    NPR just ran a story today on how abusers use smartphones to stalk and control domestic abuse victims,
    Check out the story at National Public Radio: http://www.npr.org/blogs/alltechconsidered/2014/09/15/346149979/smartphones-are- used-to-stalk-control-domestic-abuse-victims.
    Bottom line: trust your gut and if you think you are being stalked like this or if you think an ex knows too much, then you should turn off your phone and go somewhere safe until you can get some help. You could try the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233 .
    I hope the snark I see in some earlier comments as unhelpful to the specific (and serious) question asked.
    Good luck, miss magik.

  • TS3376 Can I find out where my iphone was located from? I think my account was hacked and my position was located..

    Got an alert on my phone that said "find my iphone alert" and it started beeping. I changed my password and I think Im ok now, but can I find out where I was located from?

  • How can I find out what is on my macbook and not on my other macs that results in continual downloads from the satelite dish and resulting overcharges?

    How can I find out what is on my macbook  that results in continual usage and usage charges from the satelite dish when turned on, even in the middle of the night- which doesn't happen with my other macs?

    I have BusyCal installed, but no alarms that I could find.
    However, I do think I've found the source of the sound: the Firefox add-on "LiveJournal." It routinely checks my LJ and plays a "ding.wav" file whenever there are new posts to my Friends' page. I noticed that the sound started happening more frequently, but after I closed Firefox, it stopped. But since Firefox didn't have any sound/notification settings on its own, I thought to check the extensions, and voila!
    I'm pretty sure the problem is solved, but who knows if the sound will mysteriously return...

  • HT1212 Question??? My daughter has her old ipone 4 that she cannot remember the passcode to unlock it and retrieve her information to put on her new iphone 5..how can we find out her password to remove it and get her information

    My daughter has an old iphone4 that she can not remember the passcode to get into it and retrieve information for her iphone5...how can I restore the phone or get the password off w/o knowing current passcode?

    There is no way to retrieve any data from the phone unless you can remember the passcode. That's the whole point of the passcode, to protect the data. To remove the passcode, you'll have to force the phone into recovery mode, as described here, & restore it:

    All data on the phone will be erased.

  • How do I find out if my iphone is locked to a network or not?

    I have an iphone 5 which is on 3network, I need to find out if it is locked to that network or not, I would like it to be opened up to any network as I am going abroad next month and would like to put a local SIM card in while I am away

    Put a different carrier's SIM into it and see if it works.  Or you could even ask the carrier to which you think it might be locked.

  • How can I find out if a phone is locked to iCloud

    I Only have the ime numberthat I got off of the back of the phone

    Do you have physical access to the phone? If not, there isn't any way to know. If you have access to the phone the following quote from iCloud: Find My iPhone Activation Lock in iOS 7 gives instructions on what you should see and do:
    How do I check for Activation Lock before purchasing a used device?
    When purchasing an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from someone other than Apple or an authorized Apple reseller, it is up to you to ensure that the device has been erased and is no longer linked to the previous owner’s account.
    Follow each of these steps to make sure that you can use the device you purchase:
    Turn the device on and slide to unlock.
    If the passcode lock screen or the home screen appears, the device has not been erased. Ask the seller to completely erase the device by going to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. Do not take ownership of any used iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch until it has been erased.
    Begin the device setup process.
    After choosing a language, choosing a country, and connecting to a network, the device will begin activation. If you are asked for the previous owner’s Apple ID and password, the device is still linked to their account. Hand the device back to the seller and ask them to enter their password. If the previous owner is not present, they can remove the device from their account by signing in to icloud.com/find. Do not take ownership of any used iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch until it has been removed from the previous owner’s account.
    You will know that a device is ready for you to use when you are asked to “Set up your iPhone", “Set up your iPad", or “Set up your iPod” during the device setup process.

  • Does VZ still have a back up to the cloud service? and if so How can I find out if I am enrolled? And if I am, what all is backed up?

    my phone is acting hinky. and thinking of a "master reset" but don't want to loose contacts, pictures and music.

    Verizon still has a backup to the Cloud service.  Its included in the more everything plan and most other plans have at least 5GB of storage.  You could find out what features you have on your account in My Verizon.  Log in and look at apps and features and programs.  Alternatively, if you are using an Android phone and some others, you can use Google Gmail to backup contacts and Google Drive to backup all other files pics music and videos.  You can also back up your content to your PC.  DropBox and OneDrive are other alternatives with storage space.  Gmail gives you 15GB and OneDrive 15-30GB.

  • I belive somebody sent a virus to my iphone 4 how can i find out if my phone is infected and has a virus and what app are on my device also if there were any devices sent and removed from anthor phone

    my phone had 50% battery life and currently on the charger all of a sudden the phone powered completely off and will not power on or reboot I want to how i can look up what applications have been sent to my device

    iPhone do not get virus unless your iPhone is hacked/jailbroken.
    All 3rd parties apps run in a secured sandbox.
    iPhone battery if you haven't replaced it, is a few years old.
    You may need to re-calibrate the battery indicator.
    Charge to full using wall power adapter, play some graphic intensive game or similar till it switches off by itself, then charge it to full again.

  • How do I find out if my iPhone is locked to a network provider?

    I am about to travel overseas (USA)  for a period of time and looking to use my iPhone with a sim card from there to avoid high bills in relation to roaming and the like. I purchased my IPhone at an apple store, but not sure if it is locked to my provider, how do I work out if it is locked?

    Try a SIM from a different carrier.
    Frankly, if you bought the device in the US it is very likely locked to AT&T.  The only way to get an unlocked iPhone in the US is to buy directly from Apple and specify unlocked which would be at full retail price.

  • HT4582 hi I have bought an ipad mini which was advertised as unlocked, ipad has signal but says invalid sim, how to I find out what network it is locked to?

    hi I have bought an ipad mini wich was advertised as unlocked to any network, when I put nano sim from giff gaff in the ipad says invalid sim, how can I find out what network it is locked to?

    There is nothing on the iPad itself that can tell you. Did you buy it from a reputable retailer? You can try asking them.

  • Firefox not closing promptly when browser closed

    Firefox continues to run after being closed, and doesn't allow me to reopen a new browser window for 5 to 10+ seconds. This is a fairly recent problem and I think it began when I downloaded most recent version of Firefox/Mozilla. Very frustrating.
