I opened a link in a suspicious email, and have got weird emails since

Hi,
I have a macbook air OS X ver 10.9.2. I received a message in my yahoo email address saying I have a video message from my friend's email address. This is exactly what it said:
"[email protected] has sent you 2 video messages
Click here to locate message"
He is an old friend of mine who is now living in Australia so even though it looked suspicious I opened it in the heat of excitement, a new webpage led me to the news section in yahoo.com. Thats when I realised I shouldn't have opened it. I immediately deleted the email. After few minutes I successively stated receiving  a total of 6 messages saying sorry delivery to these emails have failed, the message in all these 6 email address was the same weird codes but to different email addresses. I have not sent any emails to any of those email addresses. I think the email is hacked now. I have changed my password. I again received a message similar to the first prompting me to click a link to locate the message, I have deleted again. Is there anything I need to do or is the computer protected?

Usually this means that a spammer has compromised the mail account or PC of one of your contacts, and is forging your address as the return address in the headers of his messages. The bounce messages from mail servers that reject the spam come back to you. You should check your own mail accounts to make sure there's been no unauthorized activity. You can create a Mail rule to delete the bounce messages automatically.

  • Sometimes when I open a link in a new tab and then switch to the tab, the address bar clears and the website won't open.

    Sometimes when I open a link in a new tab and then switch to the tab, the address bar clears and I'll have to re open the tab and hope that doesn't happen again. Sometimes this happens again and again. Most of the times if I just open the link in a new tab and don't switch to it, this won't happen. But as I switch too the tab, the text would disappear and the link wouldn't open.

    For the D600 NEF's you have two alternatives: (1) Upgrade to PSE 11. (2) Download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your raw files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the files will open in all versions of PSE (keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)  Windows download click here DNG Converter 7.3  Mac download click here DNG Converter 7.3  You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click.

  • I can't send emails from iPhone until I connect to my wifi! I am with bigpond and have a bigpond email address. Can anyone help me?

    I can't send emails from iPhone until I connect to my wifi at home. I am with bigpond and have a bigpond email address. Can anyone help me?

    Try closing the Mail app completely and see if it works properly when you re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Problems Receiving Emails and some data on WIFI since latest software update.

    Problems Receiving Emails and some data on WIFI since latest software update. 
    My blackberry torch will not receive emails on wifi since the latest software update, I've tried numerous wifi networks and several handsets, even had them replaced and received a brand new. Still the same problem. 
    When turning off the wifi network on the torch, the phone will stall for 5-10min while it tries to communicate with the network (vodafone) to receive outstanding emails and data. 
    Can someone please inform Blackberry and get a quick fix on this

    Sounds like you have Do NOt Disturb turned on.

  • Entourage Email - I have taken over someone else job so have her email account with all folders and past emails and have also added my own email account. How can I sync the folders- as I need to be able to see them on my iphone but its under her 'account'

    I have taken over someone else job so have two email accounts on my Entourage - as the past account had all the folders and past emails when I sync my mail onto my iphone I can not see the folders and any past emails. How can I sync all of her old mail account info (emails and folders) to my email account to make ONE email account?!

    I thought that originally too, but that's all changed with the pool of apps that are out there now. So now what I'm trying to do is to prove that technology is progressing to the point where a tiny, handheld phone can produce images that are nearly as good as photos taken with much more expensive and bulky equipment. I've got my share of expensive bulky camera equipment, but I'm finding that I'm having much more enjoyment out of using my iPhone from initial capture, to editing, to publishing, and achieving results that are nearly as good.
    I do think you're working under a bit of a handicap. For example, lens quality. Here's an iPhone photo example of some wild turkeys in the neighborhood masked by flare that would be much better controlled on an SLR lens (click to enlarge - the flare is obvious, the turkeys are not):
    At the same time, working under a handicap can definitely spur creativity, similar to the oft-cited example of swapping out your zoom lens for a prime to force yourself to pay attention to composition.
    It's an interesting concept - I wish you luck!

  • I have a 3G iPhone and have changed my email which I use an an ID.  it is changed on my iTunes (PC) but the old email/ID still appears on my 3G iPhone so I cannot update my Apps..........how do I get the iPhone to accept the new ID??

    I have a 3G iPhone and have changed my email and Apple ID on my laptop/iTunes account.
    How do I get this new ID to show on my 3G iPhone.
    I still have the old ID and cannot update my Apps.
    PLEASE HELP !!
    thanks, Nosuh

    Did you purchase or download the apps with your old ID?  Apps are tied to the ID that is was purchased from.
    If it is a new app you bought with your new ID, you can go into settings - appstore- apple id and then log out.

I do have a new email and password that has been registered with iCloud, etc. but the old one keepd jumping in 

    We need to be clear here. Did you create a second ID, or just modify the single ID?

    I have a new OSX 27" iMac that is running Maverick. 
    RE: group emails, I am trying to omit individual recients and have tried the following options without success.

  • How do i change the my sender name that is appearing in my email that's incoming? its correct on my iPhone email and my internet carriers email access site.

    How do i change my sender name that is appearing in my email that's incoming? it's correct on my iPhone email and my internet carriers email access site, but not on my imac email. for instance, when someone else gets my email...it says its from "mike Hoak".  I need it to be me (Karen), not one of my random contacts.  not sure how it even happened.

    Hi karen elizabeth I,
    I understand that you want to change the full name associated with your email account in Mail on OS X. Here is an article that will help you find this setting and adjust it:
    Mail settings you might need from your email provider - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-is/HT1277
    This setting can be found by going to your Mail Preferences, then the Accounts tab, then selecting your account. Thanks for being a part of the Apple Support Communities!
    Regards,

  • I've gotten 60 or 70 messages that that my iCloud doesn't work and to select preferences.  The message says I will get an email to verify but I never get an email.  I've checked old email, blocked email, and have low filters on emails.  Any ideas?

    Hey CarolinQc,
    Thanks for the question. The symptoms you are experiencing can result from an Apple ID address that has been changed prior to signing out of all of the services. Before you change the email address associated with your Apple ID, you’ll want to sign out of all services to avoid this. As a fix, you can temporarily change your Apple ID back to the old address:
    iOS 7: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5223
    Change your Apple ID temporarily
    If signing out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime didn't help, try these steps:
    1. Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
    2. Go to Settings > iCloud. Complete these steps only if the Find My [Device] setting is turned on:
              - Scroll down and tap Delete Account, then tap Delete to confirm.
              - Tap “Keep on My [Device]” or “Delete from My [Device].” In either case, your data remains in iCloud and will be updated on your device when you sign in to iCloud again.
              - Enter the password for your previous Apple ID.
    3. Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
    4. Return to Settings > iCloud and sign in with your new Apple ID.

  • TS1389 Hi Since the last Apple update, every timr i open itunes I get the Welcome page and have to agree to share my libaray. before the update I only had to do this once. Now its every time. Any solutions?

    HI Since the last Apple itune WIndows update every time i open itunes I get the Welcome page and have to agree to share my library. Before the update i had only done this once. Now its every timre i open itunes

    Copied from your previous post.
    You are right the Iphone is locked into the carrier softbank from Japan and its not the 3g model its the one before it, I am not sure what model.
    If your iPhone is not the 3G model - it is the one before that, this means your iPhone is the first generation iPhone or the original iPhone, which WAS NOT sold officially by Apple in Japan. The first generation iPhone was sold officially by Apple in the U.S. as carrier locked with AT&T, in the UK as carrier locked with O2, in Germany as carrier locked with T-Mobile, and in France as carrier locked with Orange and as officially unlocked by Orange. The ONLY country where the first generation was sold as officially unlocked was in France, which is required by French law.
    The original iPhone - the one before the 3G was not sold by Apple in Japan directly or through Softbank.
    Did you purchase your iPhone from Softbank or from an Apple store in Japan ? If so, this would also mean your iPhone is carrier locked with Softbank since the iPhone is sold in Japan officially as carrier locked with Softbank only, and this would be the 3G or 3GS, not the original iPhone. This would also mean you are roaming internationally with Softbank with your iPhone in China. If you are using a SIM card from a carrier in China with your iPhone, your iPhone has been hacked to be unlocked unless you purchased your iPhone from an unofficial source in Japan which was sold originally as new officially in France as officially unlocked by the carrier Orange in France.
    Is your iPhone is carrier locked with Softbank in Japan, are you paying Softbank international roaming fees while using your iPhone in China?
