I recently received an email stating that someone from Morocco had downloaded an app on a different computer. When I clicked on the link supposedly to change my ID and password. I noticed it asked for all of my info. Is this a scam?

Dear Itunes customer,
Your Apple ID, was just used to download Flap Flap from the Mac App Store on a computer or device that had not previously been associated with that Apple ID.
This download was initiated from Morocco.
If you initiated this download, you can disregard this email. It was only sent to alert you in case you did not initiate the download yourself.
If you did not initiate this download, we recommend that you go to http://tinyurl.com/mrx4a2y , to change your password, then see Apple ID: Tips for protecting the security of your account for further assistance.
Regards,
Itunes

Yes, it's a phishing scam to get your account and payment details - if you still have the email then you could forward it to Apple : [email protected]
Did you fill any details in on the page ? If you entered your password then you should change it immediately e.g by logging into it by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store on your iPad, via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes, or via http://appleid.apple.com

  • Has anyone gotten an email stating that someone in Spain used your Apple ID to purchase an app? Spam or not?

    I have received 2 emails stating that someone purchased an app (TuneIn Radio Pro) using my Apple ID, but when I review my account in ITunes or the App Store on my computer, there are no purchases that are unknown. The email also states that it was purchased from Spain and the bottom of the email that tells the company name and address it has Hispanic characters in it. I am assuming it's a spam email but I just want to make sure.
    Thanks for any help!

    It's a scam.  They'll typically want you to click a link if you didn't buy it, which then prompts you to sign in with your Apple ID and provide your credit card.  The website will look like an Apple one, but it won't be, and they'll steal your info.
    You can forward it to [email protected]

    Someone made a purchase from my Apple ID to a device that was not mine – I received an email stating that this occurred, yet the only solution that Apple gave me was to change my password. When I look at my account, I can see the $20.00 purchase of music volumes that I did not purchase myself and was not uploaded to any of my devices; however, I cannot find a solution to getting my money back or to file a complaint against the unknown person that did this. Additionally, how do we prevent something like this from happening again, especially when I have an iPhone? What can I do in this situation?

    Thank you for the suggestion. I did change the password; however, I generally will purchase gift cards to link to the account so that if something like this ever happened it would not be taken out of a credit card or bank account.

    I received an email stating that Adobe could not release the payment and that I should validate the method of payment , tried to insert another card number but the system does not accept the security VAT reporting error message. How do I validate my license with association staff and confirm the payment card?

    Thanks for your advice, I went to the apple shop today for a face to face meeting with a tech and he checked everything and could not figure out why I was having this problem so we decided to give up on that account and create a whole new one for me using a different email address.
    Now I can download apps on both my iPhone and ipad2.
    If anyone is reading this in Brisbane Australia go to the Chermside apple shop and ask for Wade. He was fantastic!

    I saved some of my music to a Cloud I can't access. Now, they show up as "Purchased" in iTunes, and I'm not given the option of re-downloading OR repurchasing them.
    Music purchased from the iTunes store is not stored in your personal iCloud account, and an iCloud account is not required to redownload them.  You should be able to redownload them as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519.  If you are unable to, contact iTunes store support for assistance by going to https://expresslane.apple.com ; click ‘iTunes', and then 'iTunes Store', then 'Purchases, Billing & Redemption'.

    I cannot find the Kindle reader app for iPad and when I click on the link from Amazon there is an error on iTunes

    Are you in the US?  Not all apps are available in all countries.  There is no way to download anything from a website, like Kindle.  If it's not in your App Store, you won't be able to have it.

    The window that opens when I click on the Time Machine icon is Finder (devices) and when I close this Time Machine also closes.

    You will need to be much more specific about what you problem is. That is how TM works. That is how you find things to restore from TM, by using a Finder window so that you can browse through the Mac's hierarchy of folders and files.

    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

  • I received an email stating that I won a MacBook Retina, is this a scam?

    I received an email on Saturday, December 7, stating that I had been randomly selected as a winner of the new MacBook Pro Retina.  The email states that all I need to do is complete a survey which is has a link to.  The details of the email show that it came from Apple ([email protected]) and in the body of the email it gives a link to the support page if there are any questions (Apple, store support team http://store.apple.com/us.).  Please advise if this is a scam or not.  Thank you for your time.

    It's a scam. Apple will only send you mails from @apple.com addresses. Everything else related to Apple must be removed.
