I was sent an email from a family member that was not her email address with just a link and open the link. What should i do?

I was sent an email from a family member that was hacked that had a link and by mistake open the link, what should I do.

Spammers harvest email address from a variety of sources. Just because your family members name is on the email does not mean that your family members email was hacked. But it's a good idea you let them know you did receive that email. In the meantime do not respond to the email and delete it from your device.

    Only if you are also in Spain.
    You cannot gift to other countries at all.

  • HT201413 one day i loggged on and all it said was acssecing itunes store but never got there. then a message came up saying "could not connect to itunes server. check your connection and try again later". what should i do?

    one day i loggged on and all it said was acssecing itunes store but never got there. then a message came up saying "could not connect to itunes server. check your connection and try again later". what should i do?

    With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

  • I have an ipad and an iphone.  For the purposes of facetime, I would like to associated my email address with just the ipad and my cell number with just the iphone.  I went to settings facetime on the iphone but it won't let me remove the email address.

    Please see above.  I have both an ipad and and iphoen.  For the purposes of facetime, I would like to associate only my email address with the ipad and only the phone number iwht the iphobne.  However, I cannot remove the email address from the iphone.  So, when I get a facetime via email, it rings on both the iphone and ipad.  Settings>>facetime will not let me remove the email.

    I wouldn't want to say exactly, however I would imagine that it has to do with the fact you use the same Apple ID on both devices. Since Facetime was activated on the phone, with the number, and then activated on the iPad with the email and same Apple ID, they are somehow linked. I'm not sure that you can separate it without having a different Apple ID on the two devices. Otherwise you can look at this support document http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3367 and see if that helps you any.

  • I was informed my credit card expired in February but was not informed until March. I logged in and updated the new expiration date but now Netflix has cancelled my subscribtion. What can I do?

    Was informed by Itunes that my credit card expired in February but was not informed until March. I logged in and put new expiration date but now Netflix has cancelled my subscription. What's up with this?

    Contact Netflix and ask them.
    Contact iTunes customer support and ask them.
    Why would you think anyone in these user to user support forums would be able to assist in this matter?

  • HT204053 I change my email address in my apple account and now the Icloud is not responding

    I change the e-mail in my account  and my Icloud is not responding.

    To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, and your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • HT5787 I beleive my account has been hi-jacked. my apple id is also my email but i am not getting the emails when i try and reset the account what should i do?

    all is said in the title.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Put in a request for another verification e-mail to be sent to you.
    Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.
    Also check your Mail rules and filtering, the verification mail may be going to a junk folder or even being deleted altogether. You may also wish to contact your mail provider to see if their spam filters are removing the email before it gets to you.

  • HT5312 My problem is that I'm n not receiving the rescue email, I retried so many times and nothing happened. What should I do?

    Every time I want to buy an app I get this message saying "You need to answer security questions first" and the problem is I forgot the answers to these questions, it showed me that if I forgot my answers I should visit Appleid.apple.com and send a "reset security questions e-mail", I pressed on that link, signed in then pressed on this option "Send reset security info email to c*****@hotmail.com" I typed my email *the same Apple account email* and it showed me that the "reset security questions e-mail" has been sent to my account, I logged in to my account and found nothing, I tried waiting but nothing happened, I did the whole same thing many times, sending the "reset security questions e-mail" but I received nothing on my email. What should I do?
    I need to reset these questions because I need my apple ID
    Thanks for your time

    Check the spam filter. If it's not there, you need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.

  • If I use home sharing, may I delete songs off my itunes or will that delete them off of all shared devices? For example, if songs are in my library from another family member that I do not want, can they be deleted without deleting them from theirs?

    I have recently started home sharing with my family. I was wondering if I could delete music on my laptop's itunes or if because they are linked it would carry my actions over onto the other devices within home sharing. I don't want my itunes to be filled with my family members purchases, but would like to make sure that if I delete music on mine that it will not delete it for them as well.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    That depends what you mean. Deleting content from your library won't delete anything from anyone else's. The content you delete from your library will not be available for homesharing with others though.

  • Multiple copies sent to email address with any app.

    Does anyone know why I am receiving multiple (3) copies of emails when I send from Outliner, iThoughts, and al my other apps?
    In settings I have bcc myself turned off.
    I just bought this iPad and I love it but it's driving me crazy because I can't figure this out.
    Thanks.

    HI,
    It's a bit like your Apple ID (Used to Access Apple Support Communities) and your Posting name or Alias here.
    You login with one name but we all see another.
    When a person is using the iOS device version of Messages on an iPhone, then the action of entering an Apple ID links that iPhone Number to the Apple ID.
    You may only know them as the ID they use.  The iMessages server does all the linking or the ID to the iPhone Number.
    If they don't add that Apple ID (Email) to their new phone then you will not be able to contact them  (Hopefully they cleared their old phone before giving it away.)
    If you know both Apple ID and iPhone Number then their Contact (Address Book) entry will show both when you type in their Name in Messages (in the "To" spot)

  • My iPhone cable gave me a warning this morning that it was  not certified to work with this phone, but it is the cable that came with the phone and that i have been using for a year and a half.  Why?

    i plugged in my 18 month old iPhone to charge it, using the cable that came with it and that I have used regularly all along. I got a warning on my phone screen saying the cable is not certified and may not work properly with my iPhone.  Why?

    If you updated iPhone to iOS7, it now checks for real Apple Lightning Cable. Your cable may not be Apple, or someone swapped another cable with yours. Make sure the cable end is clean, take a clean dry toothbrush and carefully clean charging port on the iPhone.

  • I sent an email to a govt. Agency and got one back saying I was a spambot.  What does that mean?

    I sent an email to a govt. Agency and got one back saying I was a spambot. What does that mean?

    Simply put, a bot – which is short for robot – is an automated computer program that allows outside sources to control computers remotely without the users' knowledge. A botnet is a network of hundreds or thousands of computers infected with botnet malware that communicates covertly with a command-and-control (CnC) server run by a type of cybercriminal called a botmaster. Unbeknownst to the individual users, their computers are linked in a rogue network which the botmaster can utilize for a variety of nefarious purposes.

        <p class="style6 style9">“I have been working with Owen Dawson for the past 7 years. During that time my swing has dramatically changed and improved. This has happened through Owen's drills and use of video. It is because of these techniques, that I understand how to hit good shots but just as importantly why I hit a shot poorly. I’m glad I’ve had the opportunity to work with Owen and would highly recommend him. ” <strong>Sam Young - Country Club of Maryland - 2009 Men's Club Champion </strong></p>
        <p class="style2">.............................................</p>
        <p class="style6 style9">“Owen does two things  particularly well, in my opinion.  First, he is a master of recording  technology, and it really helps me to see what I need correcting, and what the  new move needs to be.  Second, Owen knows what the best next step should be  in your own journey to a better swing.  I have taken one or two lessons  from Owen each year for the last three or four years – one relatively small  step at a time, and then worked on grooving that step.  In that period, my  index has dropped about 8 strokes, and in 2007 I won the Club’s “Most Improved  Player” award.  Kudos to Owen!”</p>

    The only thing that really jumps out at me with your script is $HTTP_POST_VARS.  That is a deprecated function as of PHP 4. something I don't remember the exact number.  It is possible if your host upgraded the PHP installation that the function is now replaced by the simpler $_POST global variable ( http://php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.php ).
    Also the easiest way to test this type of thing is to print your email text to the screen and stop the PHP script there before the mail can execute.  Then you can check out what variables exist and what don't before finishing your script.  Also I hope you have left stuff out for security reasons, because right now you appear to have no way to validate that a form was submitted in the first place.
