I have received an e-mail requesting me to confirm my Apple ID?

Is this a normal procedure flowed by Apple? I'm a relatively new Apple user and immediately suspicious of this type of e-mail communication.

Skipper,
Most emails of that description are in fact fraudulent.  Here are two documents you should check:

  • When I send an e-mail to my rogers account in the mac mail programme the computer dings like I have received the e-mail but it never shows up ever

    All of a sudden I stopped getting e-mails from my rogers account set up in the Mail programme. All settings have been checked and confirmed okay. When I send myself an e-mail my computer gives the alert that I have received an e-mail but the e-mail does not show up. "Rogers"  is blaming the imac. I tried setting up another rogers acct with the same e-mail in the mail programme same response. But gmail and another rogers acct operate as they should . Any ideas? Thanks

    I have a new e-mail account so I changed my Apple ID in itunes.  My ipod is still showing the old ID.  How can I change it?

    Go to Settings>iTunes and App Store and tap the Apple ID, select logout. Then login with your new ID

  • How do I read a zipped file I have received in my mail?

    Hi
    I have received a zipped word file in the mail but cannot open it. Can I fix this?

    You need an app that's capable of reading zipped files to open the attachment in and then unzip it e.g. GoodReader (not sure whether it deals with password protected zip files)

  • I forgot my answer for security and i have typed wrong recovery mail . i dont want to call apple

    hello , i forgot my answers at security and i have typed wrong recovery mail adress . i dont want to call apple . what can i do now ?

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by clicking here and picking a method, or if desired, filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.
    If the people at the form tell you to call, accept that you need to.

    Your help, please...
    Some of my contacts have received cryptic e-mails that I did not send.
    How do I "clean" my computer?
    Thank you!

    There's nothing wrong with your Mac. One of your PC friends/co-workers has had his address book compromised and the malware is sending out emails from his address book as if they came from the person who's name is in their address book.

  • HT204088 I have received an email with a receipt to my iCloud email for a purchase from a apple store in Perth Australia...it does not appear in my purchased list but why did I get the email

    I have received a receipt to my email address from an apple store in Perth Australia. No purchase history on my iTunes account but clearly someone else appears to have given my iCloud email...has this happened to anyone before? Should I be worried that someone has access to my account and emails. I sent a query to Apple and received a generic non answer......typical.

    The purchase history on your iTunes account will only show purchases from the iTunes stores (iTunes, app store, ibookstore, Mac app store), not from Apple online or bricks-and-mortar stores.
    Does anything show on your credit card ? If the email is genuine then it's possible that your and their email addresses are similar and that they gave the wrong id (or the store typed it incorrectly), it doesn't necessarily mean that anybody has access to your account.
    For the contact, you will initially just receive an acknowledgement email, the proper reply may take 24 (possibly 48) hours.

    Hi Three times in two days now i have received an email explaining how i can reset my apple ID passwword etc. Ive had this email before but only once and ignored as we are advised . Three times in two days though, bit worried, any ideas??

    Is it just letting you know how to reset you password or saying it's trying to be reset?
    If it's just letting you know how to I wouldn't worry, but if it says it's trying to then call apple and you'll have to talk to account security.

    Hello everybody, I have the following problem: my apple id was desabled for security reason and I have to reset my password to enable the account again, but when I try to do this, using the e-mail, I've never received such e-mail. When I chose to do this by the security answers, it's not work again, because does not accept my birth date. Can you please somebody help with this issue? Thanks in advance

    If you have a rescue email address on your account then you've checked the inbox and spam folder on that account as well, and you've tried requesting the email again ? If you still can't find it then try contacting Support in your country and see if they can reset it for you.

    Hello ozne,
    as a first step please have a look at these "General infos about the Adobe Account"
    https://www.adobe.com/account.html and http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html.
    Did you purchase your product from these firms like Amazon? If yes, this is not a serial number, only a code with which you can request a serial number from Adobe. Please have a look at http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html. (Start here: How did you purchase your product?)
    The following part, so I just see at least, ceased to exist on my Adobe website, everything takes place in the link from above. I leave it as an info yet, it might still fit for you. For this purpose, please click your way through to your Adobe Store and find the button "Get Serial Number". Fill in the form and after a while you will get the real serial number.
    Good luck!

  • I have multiple devices that have my iCloud E-mail, I want to disable the E-Mail on some of the devices but keep it on others, I do not have physical access to the ones I want to disable but I do have access to the devices I want to keep receiving mc

    I have multiple devices that have my iCloud E-mail, I want to disable the E-Mail on some of the devices but keep it on others, I do not have physical access to the ones I want to disable but I do have access to the devices I want to keep receiving mail, can I do this with a simple password reset or will that still leave all devices enabled?

    The simple way would be to uncheck 'Mail' in System Preferences (or Settings)>iCloud, but as you would need access to the devices in question to do that you will have to change your password, at http://appleid.apple.com. You will then need to sign out and back on all the devices you want to be able to receive mail, and it's important that you follow this procedure and note the warning:
    Firstly, if you have 'Find My iPhone/iPad/iMac' enabled on any of your devices, turn it off.
    Go to http://appleid.apple.com and click 'Manage your Apple ID'. Sign in with the current ID.
    Where it says 'Password & Security' and gives your current ID email address, click 'edit'.
    Enter your new password and click 'Save changes'.
    Now you will need to go to each of your devices and sign out in System Preferences (or Settings)>iCloud - 'Sign out' on a Mac, 'Delete this account' on an iOS device (this will not delete the account from the server).
    Then sign back in with your new ID. Your iCloud data will disappear from your devices when you sign out, but reappear when you sign back in.
    I re-iterate: before you start, turn off 'Find My Mac' (or whatever) or you will need the services of Support.
    The devices on which you have not changed the password will throw up continual error messages as they attempt to contact iCloud and fail.

    Hello dear people of MSI,
    I was wondering if you could check out following problems
    https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?sid=&postid=346396#post346396
    http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showindex.php?s=ba699dfb6cfba51384ff361e1596328b&threadid=17236172&perpage=30&pagenumber=1
    these are posts made by me and other users I have come into contact with. All my problems are also their problems, and some of them are very serious(AGP/PCI lock failing when FSB reaches 220 fsb etc, and as result a fried videocard and lost data). As stated on that MSI forum above customers are have having the greatest problems accomplishing a mere 10% overclock on very good cooling. This is just a sign that there are problems that really need to be worked out, especially when your other socket 754 boards are so good?
    So plz look over the links listed and read them, plz do not send me a standard mailingreply back but for once just try and help your customers who have bought your product in good faith. The way it is happening now is that there are alot(yes we are talking 1000's)of users who are growing angry with the lack of support they are getting.
    All this word of mouth can only be bad for your company, not adressing the real issues at hand only makes people more reluctant to ever buy MSI again. I and many other users would like to know when you hope to fix these problems with the K8N Neo platinum. You made such a good board in the Neo FISR-2 and it performs flawlessly up to 300fsb so why not the K8N cuz this one failes for some users even at anything over 218?
    keep me posted on any updates and fixes that are coming soon, I have bios revision 1.1 as you see but so far none of the bioses around fix these major issues(referring here to the beta bioses, 1.13 and 1.2 beta 5 and 12).
    Hoping to hear a positive reaction from you,
    regards,
    Peter

Normally, our response time will be within 48 hours (not counting weekends). If you did not receive any reply after this auto reply, please re-submit your issue again due to some transmission failure.?

    I. Read the Manual
    Most users have tendency not to read the manual under the presumption that they already know what is written in there. However, we have seen that there are percentage of technical support calls & e-mails as a result of not reading the manual??
    II. Keep your MSI CD drivers
    MSI CD drivers provide easy driver installation via auto-run. Losing it would require you to install driver manually?
    III. Contact your Reseller
    Your reseller or the store/company that sold the motherboard or system to you should know well what your system contains & have the necessary resources to help you in your problem. Since they can see your system clearly, it is easier for them to identify if your problem was caused of wrong installation or wrong assembly or defective product, etc. It would be advisable to contact your reseller for those having problems like system cannot power on or need to send board for repair
    NOTE: there is a tiny percentage that the board might be defective & by contacting your reseller at an earlier time prevent your warranty being voided. Some resellers provide certain period of time for return/exchange, after that you have to either send the board to them for repair or you are on your own.??
    IV. Check our website
    Some of the information you are looking for might be already posted in our website?

    So my question is, what is this W7030NMS.12C bios? When he says new bios, doesn't he actually mean beta??? Can someone clear this up for me. In the zipfile i got from them are two files,
    W7030NMS.12C  --->> Which bios is this and how old is it? Does it fix temps, fix pci lock failure
    AWFL833D.EXE  --->> Obviously the flash utility
    If what they sent me is one of the bioses I spoke about in above quote(see : so far none of the bioses around fix these major issues(referring here to the beta bioses, 1.13 and 1.2 beta 5 and 12))then they don't do a good job of reading my actual mail;)
    regards,
    Capcom

    Why are they so secretive about what they did in a new bios version, how can someone then know a thing??? I too would like to know what issues they have been adressing, but pretty soon I will start thinking the reason they don't say is cuz maybe they can't fix it:(:(

Some of them open just fine but others give me the message: "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired." My friend made sure that the files in question opened without issue on his computer (a PC). Further, I was able to open one of these "damaged" files on my Android phone, but I cannot open them on the Macbook Air. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I have been with Verizon since 1995 (I was an employee for years). I attempted to upgrade 2 of the 4 lines on our account today, but couldn't. We have an outstanding balance (though we have received no past due notice via mail, email, or text and make regular payments every month) that I would love to pay, but our bank account number was stolen, so we can't access our account until Monday. Because we were unable to pay our outstanding balance, we were told we can't order the phones today during the special promotion (that ends today). No one can help us, though we have no way of doing anything until Monday when our bank reopens and can reimburse us for the money that was stolen from us. No one in customer service can help us (they can't process the order but not ship until after we make payment on Monday, they won't honor today's promotion on Monday due to our special circumstance, nothing). They stated that "corporate" makes the rules and they have no idea how I can reach corporate to discuss the matter. Without the promotion, we will be charged full price for the phones on Monday, which will cost us an additional $300.00. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    I hope that you aren't complaining about dropped calls INSIDE your condo because no amount of switching or upgrading devices will solve that.
    VZW will not guarantee service inside of any structure. There are just too many factors. If the problem is inside then you might want to look at one of the following:
    1.) Network Extender (may cause issues for others in a condo or apartment style setting)
    2.) A Google Voice Number (Free with a Gmail email address), downloading Google Hangouts Dialer and forwarding your calls to the GVN so that you can make and receive calls over Wi-Fi.
