I have an iPhone 4 and it's been receiving email kind of late, meaning if I make a purchase, at let's say Macy's on my phone, I won't receive the confirmation email immediately; my question is my iPhone maybe hacked? I read that that's one symptom, so if my phone is infected, how do I fix it?

Alejandro,
Send yourself a test message and see what the response time is.
Is your e-Mail system a push type or a poll type.
If it is a polling type, there will be a delay because there is a timed polling sequences (that you can control to a degree)
In Settings/Mail look for 'Fetch' to see how it is setup.

  • After changing my Apple ID, my phone still won't update the new email address.

    I needed to change my Apple ID email because my school email is going to be deleted. I changed the ID on the computer, and verified it. I tried to activate the change on my phone under "iCloud", but the email is still the old one. Now I can't download/buy anything. What should I do?
    Thanks,
    Emma

  • I got a new iPhone and i am trying to buy songs but when I go to buy a song on iTunes it says I have to answer my security questions and I don't remember the answers. I pressed where it says for them to email you your answers but I haven't gotten an email

    I got a new iPhone and i am trying to buy songs but when I go to buy a song on iTunes it says I have to answer my security questions and I don't remember the answers. I pressed where it says for them to email you your answers but I haven't gotten an email.  Is there another way to change or get the answers for the security questions?

    If the email hasn't arrived after a few hours and isn't in a spam filter, you need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, or clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed in either article, filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • I purchased the factory unlocked iPhone 4S online, but I have not received the confirmation email? And how much time does it take on delivery?

    I purchased iPhone 4S factory unlocked online more than 4 hours before and I havent received the confirmation email, can anyone tell me how long does it take to receive an order confirmation mail? And how many days it takes to be delivered??

    I got the confirmation almost instantly. My relatives are getting it from the US. Only flip side is that they leave on the 8th. And the website says delivery is between 7th and 14th of December, 1 or 2weeks. We bought it on the 23rd of November. I just hope they get it before they leave.

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPhone?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).
    No data will be lost.

  • I cannot access my Add-ons Collections account that I just registered, and I never received the confirmation email.

    I created an account, username "dleemaas" with the email address "[email protected]". I never received the confirmation email, and when I try to have the website send a password reset email, I do not receive that either; I am assuming that I must have mistyped something into the email address field when creating the account. How can I access my account?

    There's no link to contact the board administrator, as the help section at that forum suggests to do, and I can't login in the first place in order to post a question to ask how I'm supposed to be able to access my account. Any suggestions?

  • I've registered for the Firefox support forum, but the confirmation email hasn't come (after 3 + hours and 2 extra requests to "resend" it).

    Besides the original registration, and 2 additional requests for the confirmation email, plus asking a previous question, which appears to have triggered the sending of yet another confirmation email, I've received none! And I really don't mind waiting an hour for a confirmation email, but 3 hours and counting is not acceptable.
    And there appears to be no other way to contact anyone about anything -- except for a feedback form in which you have to explain the problem in one or 2 short sentences.
    Yes, I've checked my ISP and my email is working fine. The test message I sent myself arrived in under one second! I've checked my spam folders, and they aren't there either.....not one.
    Thanks for your help :-)

  • I have a mid-2009 MBP and I've been using my BOSE Companion 20 with it for about half a year now. It was fine until recently, when i want to adjust the volume using the pod on the BOSE Companion 20, it will cause like a surge in volume, spiking it up

    I have a mid-2009 MBP and I've been using my BOSE Companion 20 with it for about half a year now. It was fine until recently, when i want to adjust the volume using the pod on the BOSE Companion 20, it will cause like a surge in volume, spiking it up and down. It will not stablise itself! It's very fustrating. Anybody with the same issue?

    I have the BOSE Companion 5 speakers and have had the same problem. I've searched everywhere and gotten nowhere. My speakers are way past their warranty, so calling Bose would probably get me no where either. Only thing I can think of is that the speakers overheat which causes the spikes in the volume. I've tried unplugging them for a few minutes and then plug them back on. The problem does go away, but after about 5 minutes, same problem.

  • I have an ipad and it's been refusing to connect to the wifi lately no matter where I go, anyone know how I can fix it?

    I have an ipad and it's been refusing to connect to the wifi lately no matter where I go,
    it used to work and then all of a sudden it wont.
    i type in the password and it comes up with 'unable to connect to wifi'
    anyone know how I can fix it?

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • Am trying to verify my email contact address. In the confirmation email I received, the link to verify is not active. This has been going on for over 2 weeks now.

    I am trying to verify my email contact address with Apple. In the confirmation email I received, the link to verify is not active. This has been going on for over 2 weeks. They keep sending emails where I can't click on "VERIFY Now".

    In case anyone else has this problem, it turns out that my email provider's software was stripping the link out before it got to my mailbox.

  • I am signed in to my wifes iphone and it has been stolen. Tried tracking it with find my iphone, but it doesn't show up in my device.

    I am signed in to my wifes iphone and it has been stolen. Tried tracking it with find my iphone, but it doesn't show up in my devices. She doesn't have  a separate id. Any ideas why or what I could do to make it would be greatly appreciated.

    It was still turned on, I am tracking with life360, but apple's tracking is more accurate. I just wondered why the phone doesn't show up in my devices on iCloud if I am signed in on it with my apple id. Thanks
