  • I have a 3g iphone and just now started getting a pop up from icloud to enter password for my email and face time? How do i stop this

    i have a 3g iphone.  I dowloaded Icloud months ago.  I have just today started getting popups on my phone to ...Sign in to ICloud... Enter the apple ID password for "my email address that i use on my iphone". 
    Is this a virus? And how do i stop this madness.

    How did you download iCloud with an iPhone 3G?
    Accessing an iCloud account is not supported with an iPhone 3G.
    There are no viruses that affect or infect iOS, unless you have purposely jailbroken/hacked your iPhone which removes all built in security included with iOS allowing you to download unofficial apps from unknown and untrusted sources which can include malware.
    Don't remember where you access your Apple ID with the App Store with iOS 4 which is the latest version for an iPhone 3G, but have you checked there? If so, try logging out of your Apple ID followed by logging back in with the iTunes App Store.

  • I tell firefox not to remember passwords for certain sites, and it forgets when I exit

    I'm running 3.6.9 on Win7. I have chosen the setting of remembering passwords for websites. However, for certain sites I choose "never to remember passwords" and this used to work fine in earlier versions. Now, whenever I exit firefox these sites for which I do NOT want to remember passwords are forgotten about, and every time I visit them after a restart I have to instruct firefox that I don't want to remember passwords there, etc. It's getting awfully tedious. What changed? How do I ensure that my password "exceptions" are remembered between sessions?

    Make sure that you do not use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the "Site Preferences"
    Clearing "Site Preferences" in "Clear Recent History" will remove exceptions that are stored in content-prefs.sqlite (site specific settings for zoom) and permissions.sqlite (exceptions for images, cookies, pop-ups, software; Tools > Page Info > Permissions) in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder].
    The password exceptions (Tools > Options > Security: Passwords: Show Passwords) are also removed from signons.sqlite.

  • Hello, Can anyone tell me if there is any mail to get in touch with Apple support? ... I do not remember my password for my IDApple and when I enter iforgot.apple to recover I do not get the email

    Hello, I'm trying to get my Apple ID password but when I enter the page that helps you to recover it tells me to send an email and I do not get ... with what I can not reset my password ... Can anyone help me? ... Are there any email from Apple support where you can tell what I get to help me to recover?. Thanks!

    Apple does not have email support. If you're not getting the email verification from Apple, check your anti-spam filters, on your computer and with your email provider, to make sure that emails from Apple aren't being blocked. You can also try the Security Questions option rather than the email authentication. See:

    Otherwise, you'll need to call Apple support:

  • HT1212 My Daughter has forgotten her passcode for her ipod and i was wondering how i can reactivate it for her as it says you can re try after 22,688,910 minutes! dont have the time to wait LOL

    My daughter has locked her ipod touch and entered the code incorrectly a few times. Is there anyway i can reactivate it again. I have tried to connect it to itunes but it says that i need to put in the code as its in restore mode! that doesnt make sense to me. If you have any help i would appreciated

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

  • My 6th generation 160gb ipod classic is displaying the red cross logo directing me to apple support. It's completely full and I'm wondering how I can recover the files form it. The iPod isn't recognized by my computer or by iTunes, help is appreciated!

    Looking for help as to recover the files, thanks!

    Hello Lawrence,
    I do have AppleMobileDeviceService.exe running.
    My USBs are plugging in straight into the laptop.  All 4 work.  Just today, I synced my iPod with multiple USB ports.  It works for the iPod, but the iPhone won't pop-up.  The iPhone does not appear in iTunes as a button anywhere.
    I am unable to use another computer for this.  I can actually go into iTunes, add file to library, and add photos that way.  So, it's recognized by my computer.
    This should have been seperated.  Basically, I don't have another computer accessible to me to back-up sync on iTunes with.
    The last part means in iTunes, I can click "File > Add file to library" and the iPhone is shown as a camera icon.  I can click on it and have access to photos.  I can add those photos to the iTunes library.  That's about as far as the connectivity goes with the iPhone right now.

  • I NEVER entered a password for the backup but now I want to restore my iphone and itunes asks for one. What can I do?

    I NEVER entered a password for the backup but now I want to restore my iphone and itunes asks for one. What can I do?

    @Razmee209 is right there is nothing you can do if it is an encrypted back up
    iOS: Troubleshooting encrypted backups - Apple Support
    BUT you could try to see if you have a back up that is not encrypted. If you go to iTunes Preferences (On a Windows go to Edit Menu under the Play Button - On a Mac click on iTunes at the top left) Click on Devices and if you see a back up that does not have a lock next to it you will be able to restore from that back up without using that password.
    Encrypted passwords are set up at the time you create the back up.

  • HT1222 My daughter had put in a password for my iphone and she forgot about the numbers. How can i reset it and what can I do ? I cant use the phone now ? pls help

    My Daughter had key in a password on my Iphone and forgot the number, now i can use my phone can you pls advice me how to unlock the password and use my phone again

    Hi ...
    If you can't remember the Passcode, if possible, restore the device from the computer it was last synced with by placing the device in recovery mode.
    Instructions here   > iOS: Unable to update or restore
    If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be presen

  • HT1766 What if I forgot my password for the backup? I don't see a forgot password button.

    I put a password for my backup months ago and now I don't remember it. I rectently went on vacaction and my iPhone was backed up to iCould. While I was on vcation i started to get notifcations saying that there was no more space in cloud. I kept on ignoring it. Now I want to back it up to my mom's mac, and I need the password, but I don't know the password. Please help me out. Thank You. Sincerely, Saad Jaber.

    If you don't know the password then you cannot use the backup.  That is the point of the passcode.

  • Password for encrypted backup of device

    I need help to change the type of encryption for my iPhone and iPad backups in itunes. I have tried all the passwords I ve used in years and have no clue. Somewhere in Support I found an instruction that did not lead to clearing the password. It did send me to backup to iCloud and do a restoere from there. But this is not what I am trying to acheive. I already was backing up to iCloud. If I need to do a restore from a backup in iTunes on my PC I cannot do it because I cannot provide a correct passowrd for the encrypted backup.
    Can anyone help me with a solution?

    If the user cannot remember the password for the backup, the backup is useless.  There is no way to reset or remove the password requirement.
    If the user did not enable backup encryption, the backup is corrupt.
    In other words, the backup is no good without the password, delete it and move on with life.

  • I'm installing the new OS and iPhone is asking for a password to "restore" my iPhone, but I've never used a password for the phone and don't know what it is!

    I'm installing the new OS and iPhone is asking for a password to "restore" my iPhone, but I've never used a password for the phone and don't know what it is!  Can anyone help??

    You selected Encrypt iPhone Backups in iTunes.  Then you entered a password.
    It would be that specific password it is asking for.

  • How do you transfer the content from an iPhone to a PC? I have to use a PC for a while and don't know how to put my stuff on to there from my phone

    How do you transfer the content from an iPhone to a PC? I have to use a PC for a while and don't know how to put my stuff on to there from my phone

    If you're talking about music and movies an i-device was not designed for unique storage of media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing music and movies is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred from a device to a computer.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software.  See this document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
