I keep getting spam on my iPhone

Using my icould account I feel my email address has been sold to spammers. My macbookpro send the spam to junk just fine, but I keep getting all the spam on my iphone. How can I prevent this? Thanks

Im having exactly the same issue. Spoken with Verizon a lot out it. They've recomended the "type STOP" and they've looked into getting the number off of whatever spam subcription its on. So far no dice.
I just got the number and phone a few weeks ago so It's nothing I did. They think it's left over from whom ever had the number last.
I think my final resort will be just insisting that they change my number. I forward the number to Google Voice so no one will miss me if I change the number anyway; it just ***** that you have to go through all this crap. From what i can tell it's happening to alot of people but not enough for it to be on verizons radar.

    I have tried to hold the "home" and "power" button to reboot
    I have tried powering it off
    I have tried, to unplug the cable, hold the "home" button and then plug it in.
    Can't check the SN or warranty, cause it is stuck in restore mode.
    Is the hard drive gone? Should there be something replaced.

    This may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow Troubleshooting security software issues, and restore your device on a different known-good computer. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    Usually this is caused by your antivirus or firewall blocking iTunes access to the Internet. It can also occur if the phone is jailbroken or if the computer you are using was ever used to jailbreak an iDevice.

  • Keep getting spam, no way to block/report user

    I keep getting spam messages from *edited for privacy*.  I can remove from contacts but then they just show right back up, and when I right click on their name there is no option to block/report.  I have the setting Only allow people in my contact list to contact me selected.

    I registered today to report the exact same thing... 
    It is a serios flaw/error in this new merge, and one that in no way should have been launched in its current state. 
    I have seen other threads, from nearly 6 months ago, reporting the same error, and the reply was that maybe a solution is coming.... soon.... maybe.... 
    It is freaking me out and destrying my work day as I use skype for work. And constant popups from spam mongers are really frustrating...

    You need to contact iTunes support and send an email by following the link I posted.
    Simply going there does nothing.

  • I keep getting logged out safari iphone

    I keep getting logged out of websites on iphone when using safari. ios8.1.2
    I have an iPhone 6+ and I find this happens when using the tabs of safari. Each time I swich tabs I get logged out of whatever site/forum i was on.
    These are sites I log into and tick the remember box so should stay logged.
    I also have an iPad and I don't get this problem on the iPad - the sites keep me logged in as expected.
    Can anyone help please?

    I had the same problem, and have now solved it.
    Go to System Preferences, then Security, and untick "Log out after 10 minutes of inactivity".

  • Just downloaded ios 7.0.4 for my iphone4 and backed up before doing so. Now that it's been updated and restored I keep being asked to setup my iphone. When I select restore from itunes I keep getting stuck on setup iPhone. Cant get back in phone!

    I backed up the phone and updated to ios 7.0.4 which took about 2 hours.  Now the phone powers on and says hello in different lagnuages and says to slide to setup.  I am asked to choose a network and then if I want to setup as a new iphone, restore from icloud or restore from itunes backup.  When I select restore from itunes the screen says "connected to itunes".  In itunes I select restore from backup however after a few seconds itunes says that it cannot restore beause there is not enough free space on the iphone.  During this attempt to restore I see the home screen and my screen saver and everything for a split second, then the phone powers off.
    I see in itunes that all of my photos and data are still on the phone however I cannot get into the iphone.

    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.

  • Why does my music keep getting deleted from my iphone while using itunes match?

    Ever since i started itunes match, gradually my local music on my iphone has been removing itself to be replaced with the icloud symbol. All the music is still there but it's removed locally. Today all my music was suddenly removed requiring me to re-add all my music by clicking every icloud symbol individually and it is driving me absolutely mad! What am I doing wrong?!

    Does the same thing happen if you use another set of headphones?
    If it does, there might be something in the headphone jack like lint, dirt, or something else. You might be able to get it out by connecting the headphones 5-10x or spraying compressed air into the jack.
    If it doesn't you might need to get those headphones replaced.

  • Keep getting spam email from Apple

    So far 7 times I get an email about my iCloud is almost full. There is no unsubscribe option at the bottom of the message.

    Hey RavensGate,
    I can understand the constant emails can be frustrating. If you think that your storage is getting full, take a look at the first article to help curb that back. If all looks good and you are not even close to being full, check where the email came from to actually see if it came from Apple. To inspect that, look to the second article for assistance.

    Only happened after I got a new iPhone *(upgraded from 4 to 5c) and I downloaded the iOS 8.1.2 update.
    I've already tried everything on the FAQ page for this error, and nothing's worked yet.
    Error looks like this iTunes on my computer: iTunes could not connect to iTunes store. An unknown error occurred (11556)
    Also won't connect on my iPhone after signing in.
    Just changed my password so it's not that, and I've already restarted my iPhone twice.
    PLEASE help. I just got an iPhone 5c and I want to download my old ring tones and alert tones!!!

  • I'm getting spam on my iPhone 4s.

    How do I block unwanted ads from my phone? Every day the same 6 emails ads for forklifts, POS, fleet tracker, etc. show up in my phone mail. How do I mark these as junk?

    For spam blocking to be effective it must be done at the server. Check with your ISP for how to report spam. For many ISPs you do it by logging in to their webmail portal and setting up spam filters.
