Is it possible for someone who updated my phone on their computer to read my messages without me knowing? If so how can I stop that?

Is it possible for someone who updated my phone on their Mac to read all my current messages? And if so how can I stop it?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
I really doubt it. To do that, that person must have stolen your Apple ID email and password, and then, log in Messages in his/her iPhone with your Apple ID to read your messages. The Apple ID of an iPhone doesn't change when you connect it to your Mac, so don't worry

  • When I send an Imessage to other's who have iMessage my e-mail adress pop's up instead of my name.. How can I fix that?

    when I send an iMessage to other's who have iMessage my e-mail adress pop's up instead of my name when they recieve my text.. How can I fix that?

    They would have to have your name in their contacts and then assign your email address to your contact. It's similar to receiving a regular text message from a phone number you do not have saved in your contacts; their phone number will show up instead of their name, but once you add them to your contacts their name will show up.

  • G3 screen lights up every 18 seconds for 6 seconds while at rest? How can I stop that

    A G3 lights up the screen every 18 seconds for 6 seconds while at rest. How do I stop this. Have turned off all the auto update, location find, etc I can find and it still lights the screen every 18 seconds. Battery taking a beating and can't use it for an entire day without a charge. This seems to be the culprit.
    Help!

  • It seems my iCloud email address is shared by someone else. I am getting their emails, and hate to think they are getting mine. How can I check the exclusivity of the iCloud email address?

    I am receiving email belonging to someone else. It appears that the iCloud email address I was allocated is used by someone else, and I hate to think my email is being received by them. What's the way to have Apple iCloud check and see that only one recipient gets an iCloud email address? Thanks, John

    This is not a hacked account issue.  It seems that this a common issue for many... Apple Mail Engineers, Please Do Something!!!  With each iteration of Apple's cloud services, the domain changed. i.e., @mac.com, @me.com and now @icloud.com.  It seems Apple's original plan or thought was to let you own the account name across all domains. So, [email protected] will also have the option use the newer @me.com and @icloud.com accounts at the same time (why?).  With millions of devices being activated around the world, it seems some already established accounts like [email protected] were allowed to be activated as new accounts under [email protected] or [email protected] by other new iCloud users.  I'm having the same problem with my email account and my son's email account.  In both cases, the second user is based in Europe (we are in the USA).  I've set all my devices to strictly use the [email protected] account.  In iCloud settings, I see the option to also use the @me.com and @icloud.com addresses.  From time to time, I get  emails sent to the [email protected]  This is very nerve racking because you don't want to get caught with your pants down or feel that someone other than the NSA is watching your email traffic.  We can only hope Apple knows about this and has a way to differentiate accounts via another authentication key assigned to each of your devices.  Good luck guys.

  • Since update 11.1.4.62, my iphone does not appear in iTunes at all.  How can I fix that?

    Hi,
    I updated iTunes this morning and now my iphone, ipad do not appear in iTunes. 
    I tried unplugging the usb cable and but it still does not work.  I tried powering off my iphone but it does not connect.
    my husband has the same problem with his ipad with his pc.  He did the same update this morning.
    Anybody has an idea?

    I had the same problem and tried some of the fixes describing Apple Mobile Devise settings etc. it didn't work.
    What did work was uninstall iTunes and othe various Apple apps and then reinstall with the latest version of iTunes from Apple. All my playlist, music, setting remained intact and it works like a charm.

  • How can I stop extracted clips goes to search for "all movies"?

    When you click open a Macintosh system drive that is running Leopard OS X 10.5.2. On the bottom right side, under "SEARCH FOR" you will see "All Movies".
    I am reloading all my LOST footage because I deleted clips for more space in the system drive. Right now all extracted clips goes to an External Hard Drive. However, every single clips I extracted are also in the "All Movies: Folder. How can I stop that? Or can I stop that?

    Everyone can still use the same Apple ID. What you need to do is go into - "Settings" , "Messages", "Receive At", and add a different Email for each user for where they can be reached for messages at. Once you have added a new Email to each device delete the original Email that was there which should have been the same as your Apple ID. Then when you send a new message, send the message to the Email for that person that was just added to their iPhone. There is no need for each family member to create their own Apple ID just to use iMessage. Each family member would only need to create their own Apple ID if everyone wanted to use iCloud and not have all family members data, contacts, calendars, etc sync together. If you are also using FaceTime between iPhones do the the same thing in the FaceTime settings.

  • How to shell script for noob? or Cryptography for someone who doesn't need.

    Hi, I've seen the need of automating some tasks in the Terminal and I believe using shell scripts is my solution, although I don't really even understand how they work.
    Instead of posting a full how-to here, I'd like to ask if anyone knows about good comprehensive guide for someone who never used any programming language, yet knows how to work a bit with the Terminal?
    I will figure out the command I will need to input in the Terminal myself, by testing. Once it's figured all I need is to make a shell script out of it, and perhaps make an application out of it. (Automator? ... or more Script Editor? Or?)
    Thanks
    After seing this page...
    http://www.askdavetaylor.com/howcan_i_secure_encrypt_folders_on_my_macs_usb_flashdrive.html
    ... I believed to have found a great solution for some heavy cryptography, to protect some folder and for learning pleasure. What I wanted to do is to automate the openssl task mostly like this:
    Open my flash drive (or a certain folder) containting a disk image (uncompressed, or compressed if necessary, doesn't matter) but uncrypted. Clicking on something I will name 'Lock' for the moment will run the shell script, encrypting the said image with pre-set parameters and a password I will input when prompted by the app.
    Re-running the app will prompt me a password and simply un-encrypt the image, making it useable for me.
    That's all. Perhaps if I can do it, I'll make it prompt me what cipher and all other parameter to use, but I don't understand openssl very well yet. *I just read and understood more or less informations on that page.*
    Who knows, I'll end up with a sweet GUI for encrypting files usable by the common mortals.
