I have a macbook air.. Can someone hack my keychain access through an email download attachment link?

I own a Macbook air.. I have just recently went into my gmail account and opened an email from a person that was interested in buying an item that I was selling from craigslist. The email sounded legit, not like a scam.. I usually can spot those out. So then I happen to notice an attachment download link at the bottom, like it was a picture or something. So I opened it, and all of a sudden this "set of keys icon" popped up and starting showing all of my passwords, and certficates, and files from my computer... i went and googled what the keys meant, and it is my computer keychain access.. Which stores and backs up all of my login in passwords and informtion, and administrative options for the computer.. What I am wondering is why would this have opened up as soon as I opened a random email? Am I being hacked for all of my login information, and passwords? Can he access all of what this "Keychain access" is showing me? I am kind of scared and nervous now, because I have never since I have owned this laptop, seen this kind of thing before, expecially opening it up in an email. Please someone, can you give me answers to my concerns. Thank You. Julia.

That was an S/MIME cryptographic signature. The Keychain Access application opened so you could add the sender's public key to your keychain. It's not hacking.

Hello! I have a macbook air and my apple ID is using my old email that I don't remember the password to. I want to switch it to my most recent email. How can I do this?

Hello! I have a macbook air and my apple ID is using my old email that I don't remember the password to. I want to switch it to my most recent email. How can I do this?

Change your old Apple ID using this link:
https://appleid.apple.com/
Click the blue Manage your Apple ID button.
Its password is unrelated to the password you use for the email associated with it.
If you don't remember the Apple ID password, click the Reset your password link.
I already have a new apply id that is set on my phone and ipad. I just want to switch it to that one...
You cannot change your Apple ID to another one that is already in use - in this case, the one you created for your iPnone and iPad. Decide which Apple ID you want to keep. If you need to change it, change it - don't create a new one.

In most countries with a lot of movies yes you can, just like how iCloud works with apps/music

I purchased a macbook air from someone on craigslist, and when i try to download iPhoto, it tells me that these apps were already designated to another apple id.

I purchased a macbook air from someone on craigslist, and when i try to download iPhoto, it tells me that these apps were already designated to another apple id. any way to reset the app store from thinking it's still alligned with him? Lion was reset already, but this isn't. If i download on my mac mini, will i then be able to retrieve the download on my air?

Hi...
On the MBAir drag the iPhoto app to the Trash, empty the Trash.
Then try purchasing and downloading iPhoto.
You can re download iPhoto on all your authorized Macs. To authorize the MBAir, launch iTunes. From the menu bar click Store > Authorize This Mac. You will be prompted for your Apple ID and password.
Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
Select which apps you want to re download. Then right or control click where you see Installed then click Install.
Make sure and use the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.

Like an idiot, i bought a game for an ipad and only have a macbook air. can i somehow get the game to play on my air? or have i just thrown $5.29 out of the window?!?

I recently bought a game for an "ipad", (thru itunes), when I only have a MacBook Air...I had seen where you could switch apps back and forth between devices, ad I thought I could do this. Is there a way to play the game on my Air laptop? Or did I just throw $5.29 out of the window? One more thing...it involved Facebook, and I don't belong...or want to belong!?
I want to play Jeopardy, Wheel of Fortune, etc. ON MY MACBOOK AIR!?!???

No way to play an iOS game on a Mac presently.
I suspect if you contacted Apple's Customer Support and explained the situation they would refund or credit your account.

If I have a MacBook Air, can I install a Mountain Lion VM on my PC?

I have recently purchased a MacBook Air with Mountain Lion installed on it. I would like to do some development back and forth from PC to Mac, and in some cases, it would be very convenient to do some work on my PC instead. Is it legal to install a Mountain Lion VM on my PC? If so, how can I do it using the Mountain Lion installed on my Mac?
Replies are greatly appreciated.

You can't install OS X Mountain Lion on a PC because Apple doesn't allow it. Also, you can't install it in a virtual machine in a PC because virtual machine apps for Windows doesn't support this.
However, you can run Mountain Lion on a virtual machine in your MacBook Air if you want. Parallels and VMware Fusion allows you to use Recovery HD in order to install Mountain Lion on a virtual machine, so you should consider the option

Can someone hack into your ipad and send emails?

there is an email in my sent (yahoo) mail that says "sent from ipad" but i didn't send it. how is that possible?

There is no way to remotely control the iPad. If your Yahoo account was hacked, someone may have picked up one of your more recent emails sent from the iPad, and used the same signature. "Sent from iPad" is just a line of text that is put in there by default by Apple, but can easily be replicated or copied (or changed).

I have a macbook air bought in 2010 wit liquid damage that might has affected the SSD card. I need to get my data but apple won't help. Authorized dealers never seem to have the same model to try whether the SSD card works. How can I get my data quickly?

Hi
I have a macbook air bought in 2010. It has liquid damage that might or might not affected the SSD card. I need the data on my SSD card for work and I need it urgently. Apparently Apple won't get the data out, even if I have apple care... Licensed apple dealers need to have the same macbook air model so they can insert the SSD card and check whether the data is there, and they never seem to have one...
I'm really disappointed with apple. It's been two weeks and I haven't been able to find out whether the SSD card is holding my data. It can't take that long to do it in store... How can they sell a product and then wash their hands on the matter?
Anyway, enough with the apple rant. I need to get this data urgently so I need to find out how I can get it out of the card. The SSD card and data might be fine so I don't want to take it to a data recovery centre and get charged loads.
Thanks for your help.

See this link for a 4870 card, best instructs for flashing for a noob like me. (last lowest price was $150 for a 1GB vRAM 4870 from TigerDirect).

However, not every 4870 card will work with the ROM currently floating around out there. BEWARE!

I have a Macbook Air that had some coffee spilled on the keyboard and as a result the plus/equals key is no longer functioning. Can I use a program like Ukelele to reprogram a different key to be my plus/equals key? Can I program a function key? key

I have a Macbook Air that had some coffee spilled on the keyboard and as a result the plus/equals key is no longer functioning. Can I use a program like Ukelele to re-program another key to do that function? Can I re-program a function key to do this function?

Water + electronics do not mix. Something was damaged insode, and the logic board may be corroding as is.
Take it to a Genius Bar for an evaluation and repair estimate.
This is accidental damage and not covered by warranty.

Great tip Stephen!!
I was so frustated from this issue that I used to use Windows iTunes for mass editing info, adding Lyrics etc and then transfering songs to Mac. This tip has alleviated my pain!!
Thanks for the tip. This question should be tagged as answered.

Who can shed some light on my ongoing connection problem.
After upgrading my iPad Air with IOS 7.06, I could no longer connect to the internet.
I have 2 MacBooks Air, 1 ipad mini and one iPhone 4S running on the same network, and they are all connected to the net and function well.
So I cleaned up the ipad completely, installed the latest firmware and reinstalled my apps : no connection.
I tried all things of resets and forgets. No result.
I have been fondling with my Airport Extreme 5 , but that did not help much.
This morning I went to a neighbor , hooked my ipad air on his network, typed the password and the thing all worked fine.
I have tried to connect the ipad air as an ethernet client, but that did not work. „Not enough power“ was the statement
Ideas anyone ?

Yes I tried this manyfold. But did not work. Reading on, I took Tesserac's advice. Shut down router and computer.
Start router after 15 minutes and wait another 10 minutes before starting the computer.
Et voila.... everything is back in working order,
