Iphone 6 setup - asking me to confirm another email address (.cn)?

My wife has just received her iPhone 6. During the setup process she has entered her iCould details and selected the most recent restore point (yesterday). Once this is selected the iPhone then asks her to confirm the password for the iCould account of ***. She has not clicked the skip this step action as we don't know what this actually means in terms of having this random email account on a brand new iPhone.
If someone from Apple Support could respond promptly it would be greatly appreciated.

When a stranger's Apple ID appears for app updates, it usually involves a pirated app that has been hacked by using the receipt file form the starngers account. Which app is reporting a need for an update when this stranger's account appears?

I received an alert with all Firefox trademarks asking me to confirm ny email address, was this real?

Iwas working late at night about a week ago.
A Firefox screen popped up. I am accustomed to this, even though I expected I had downloaded Firefox 5 apparently (obviously) that update failed. The pop up screen which appeared authentic, all appropriate graphics, asked if my "humdinger@evrika was my preferred email. It is for these purposes, so I replied "Yes"! I am a recent victim of some pretty serious hacking over the recent 10 months. My lawyer and I have counter-hacked, and we are now presenting those facts to Yahoo. Yes-Man this is a lot of woe-begone-work. We want to catch the hacker. Is the screen appearing to be authentic Firefox yours or is it a fisher?

Scam. Do not reply, do not give them any account information.

Why does Verizon Wireless ask to confirm my email address when I touch the Google Chrome app, but not respond when the correct info is entered?

I touch the Chrome app icon on my Droid and a Verizon message comes up. It asks me to confirm my email address as shown on the screen, and has a field for entering my billing zip. When I do so, it flashes as if processing but comes right back to the same screen with the zip code field empty. I went on line and confirmed that all info in my profile was correct. Anyone out there with the same problem and/or help?

Lets get to the bottom of this, Dwix! I personally use the Google Chrome application and love it. I am confident that we can figure it out together. Did you just start using the application? Have you had this message pop-up before? You mentioned that it is a Verizon Message, does it come in a form of a text message? Is it possible for you to send us a screenshot of this message?
Please share the details needed so that we can better assist!
Thank you,

How do you automatically have your emails fowarded from your iphone 4s to another email address?

How do you have your email automatically forwarded from your iphone 4s to another email address?

You do this at the server level for the account you want to forward, not on the device itself.

I installed Mountain Lion so that I could sync my notes with my iPhone that already syncs notes with a specific email address I use for school, but during the install it automatically set up Notes to sync w the wrong email addy. How can I fix it?

I installed Mountain Lion so that I could sync my notes with my iPhone that already syncs notes with a specific email address I use for school, but during the install it automatically set up Notes to sync w the wrong email addy. It looked in Mail, which had 5 email accounts set up in it, and for some reason picked the only one that I no longer use because it is for a school that I no longer attend. How can I fix it so that it syncs with the correct email account for notes and calendar? There don't seem to be any settings available other than to check if you want to use the basic features. It also said during the set up that it was setting up 'find my mac' but if I look on the iCloud website there is nothing showing there for finding my mac.
At this point I feel like I wasted my money paying for this supposed upgrade. I got nothing for it but frustration. It even automatically set my security settings to allow only downloads from the Mac store so the first time I went to download something I had to stop what I was doing and go correct settings first. I feel like there should be a security setting to block downloads from the Mac store so I don't accidentally end up clicking the wrong thing and being charged.

iCloud isn't syncing them on your phone. You simply added the email account to your phone and enabled calendar and notes syncing with the email provider, and the calendar and notes appear in the calendar and notes apps on your phone. You can do this with Gmail, Yahoo and other IMAP account. iCloud email is just another IMAP account, but syncs notes with Apple's iCloud server just as Gmail syncs notes and calendars with Google's server.
iCloud didnt' set up a non-iCloud account on your Mac. When you check Mail in System Preferences>iCloud, it only creates an iCloud email account. You can also add other email accounts to your Mac by going to System Preferences>Mail,Contacts,Calendars and clicking on the "+" sign on the bottom of the left sidebar. If you added these other email accounts to your Mac before you upgraded to Mountain Lion, these were simply maintained on your Mac after you upgraded.

How can I change my apple ID on my iPhone? It's tied to a dead email address that's inaccessible.

How can I change my apple ID on my iPhone? It's tied to a dead email address that's inaccessible. I can log in on my computer with updated id, however I can't find where to change old email. The settings displays new id. When I try to update or buy an app on my phone it automatically puts in the dead email address and asks for the password.
Please help! Thanks.

Sync with iTunes so you have a backup. Tap Settings > General > Reset > Erase all content and settings. Restore the unit as New. Reconfigure for your new ID and password. Restore your apps, etc. from backup.

HT4859 My Apple ID is my AOL email address. Since I set up iCloud & another email address, I only have an Inbox. I kept getting a IMAP error. How do I restore to a previous iCloud backup before this happened?

My Apple ID is my AOL email address. Since I set up iCloud & another email address, I only have an Inbox. I kept getting a IMAP error. How do I restore to a previous iCloud backup before this happened?

It may be that the process you used to change the iCloud ID created these issues. What I would suggest you do is the following:
If you have any photo stream photos on your device that you want to keep, save them to your camera roll by opening your photo stream album, tapping Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll.
Go to icloud.com on your computer, sign into your iCloud account and check to confirm that your data is all there.
Assuming your data is on icloud.com, go to Settings>iCloud on your device, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted. This will only delete the account and your synced data from your device but not from iCloud. Your data will be synced back to your device when you sign back in.
Go to Settings>iCloud, sign back in with the correct iCloud ID and password and turn your iCloud data syncing preferences back on. This will sync your iCoud data back to your device and recreate your iCloud email account.
Try your Mail again and see if it works properly now.

Request to confirm my email address can not be responded to

Having registered I can not confirm my email address as requested as there is no response to clicking on the blue link in your message. VERY frustrating!

If you know the answers to your questions then follow the steps half-way down the HT5312 page that you posted from :
Navigate to appleid.apple.com using your web browser.
Click "Manage your account"
When prompted, sign in using your Apple ID and password.
Click Password & Security
You'll be asked to answer 2 of your 3 security questions before you can make any modifications. If you are unable to remember your answers, you can choose to send an email to your rescue email to reset your security questions.
After you've validated your identity by correctly answering your security questions, click Edit to the right of your rescue email address.
Once you've finished editing your rescue email address, click the Save button directly below the email field.
If you can't remember your answers then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset you can then use the above steps to update your rescue email address

Another email address in using my imessage? (Instead of my appleid)

Hi. Is it possible if I add another email address in using my imessage? (Instead of my appleid) thanks!

Yes. I use three different emil addresses on my other devices instead of my Apple ID. You need to setup messages with your Apple ID and then you can add another email address to use instead to the Apple ID email.
If you need help, watch this video.

How can I turn off mail forwarding to another email address

How can I turn off mail forwarding to another email address?

Mail forwarding is usually a function provided by your email provider. Visit their web site and check your setup there.

I am trying to forward certain email I get to my icloud email to another email address. I have added the unwanted senders email to rules and included where i would like the email to be forwarded

I am trying to forward a certain email I get to my icloud email to another email address. I have added the unwanted senders email to rules and included where i would like the email to be forwarded, however it doens't seem to be working as i also added a second rule for testing purposes with my other hotmail account
any help would be great

new account are created without a password, so asking for it is normal.
see http://thunderbirdtweaks.blogspot.com.au/2011/07/pssswords.html
Compare the passwords Thunderbird has for the other accounts and see if using the same one is what you need to do.

How do I remove/delete another email address in the window where I have to type in my Apple ID? The email address in there is not mine. Help please

When I go to enter my Apple ID ( to update an application ) there is another email address entered which is not mine. So, even when I type in my correct ID , obviously my ID does not match this other email address. How did this 'other' email address get there and how do I get this other email address deleted ? Than you for any advice.

You installed a hacked app, originally from the Mac App Store. It contains the receipt for a different app, downloaded using an account that you don't control. You need to identify and remove the hacked app.
Important: The app you need to remove is not necessarily the one named in the App Store alert. For example, the App Store could prompt you to update "Angry Birds" or "Twitter," but the hacked app could be "Final Cut Pro." Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you must carry out a systematic search with Spotlight.
1. Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
kMDItemAppStoreHasReceipt=1
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
2. In the Finder, press command-F to open a search window, or select
          File ▹ Find
from the menu bar. In the search window, select
          Search: This Mac
from the row of tokens below the toolbar. Below that is a popup menu of search criteria, initially showing Kind. From that menu, select
          Other...
A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select
          Raw Query
as the criterion, then click OK or press return.
Now there will be a text box to the right of the menu of search criteria. That's where you enter the raw search query. Click in that box and paste the text you copied earlier by pressing command-V.
3. The search window will now show all the App Store products that are installed. Compare those search results with the list of your purchases from the App Store. To see the complete list, you may need to unhide hidden purchases. If any apps were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you control, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
4. At least one of the apps in the Spotlight search results is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash, after quitting it if it's running. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.
5. Quit and relaunch the App Store. Test.
If you find these instructions confusing, ask for an alternative method.

You cannot, all content is tied to the Apple ID used to obtain them.
Content from one Apple ID cannot be merged or transferred to another Apple ID.
You need to recover your Apple ID for updates.

I have been told my macbook does not have enough gb for Lion. and that i can not keep my mobile me mail without lion. so does this mean I have to drop mobile me and get another email address?

You probably know that mobilme goes away in June this year. There are two ways to access your mail account on iCloud, either through Lion or via the web. Web access won't get you to all the benefits of iCloud but will allow you to get to Mail, Contacts, Calendar, and Find My iPhone. See this FAQ: http://www.apple.com/mobileme/transition.html
If you decide to go with Lion, the maximum memory you can install is 4GB, however the system will only use 3GB, which is enough to run Lion. Lion requires 2GB, however, some have not been satisfied with it's performance in 2GB. One source for memory is OWC at http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/MacBook/DDR2/
