Is it possible to get a Virus from an over-the-air distributed app?

I've been invited to participate of a beta and have seen 2 apps that can be downloaded directly from safari over-the-air. There's any risk they can harm my device in any way? And no, my iphone is not jailbroken

Thank you for the help. The developer did say they're not colllecting the UDID's or the data on the phones, but I'm not trusting my iphone and my account's safety in his words only. He did also mention that the date had to be changed in order to download it, maybe because Apple doesn't allow it to be distributed that way anymore, anyways I'll just stick with the apps I get from the Store.
Best Regards.

  • Sync from phone (over-the-air NOT PC/Ovi Suite) - ...

    Everytime I initiate the Sync command from my phone (N86 8MP 21.006) it comes to the part where it says "Sending..." and then freezes somewhere in the middle of that with a Connection Error!
    ALSO... after a few failed attempts, APPARENTLY it DID Sync something!! HOWEVER........... I only have 823 Contacts on my phone.. on the Ovi.com website (when I log in with my account) it says I now have 831 Contacts!! I am utterly terrified to Sync again and mix up my Contacts with old ones that I had deleted or something ;-S
    Any help would be appreciated..Thanx

    Normally I would advice to just sync with using the Ovi Suite, but I suggest you go over the settings for sync on the Ovi Site.

  • Is it possible to get LS name from SLD when the scenario is executed

    can I create a scenario that gets the Technical system details of the Business system from SLD?
    Can I have a Soap - File scenario, in which case, once the request comes from Soap, corresponding Business system's Technical system details ( like LS name and client no ) should be taken from SLD and send as a file.
    Is this possible ??
    if yes, how?
    Regards,
    Venkat.

    Hi
    Technical system details - Not sure if that is directly possible..
    but an option would be to use a FixValue/ Valuemap function provide a Key & get the value
    to generate the Key, use a UDF, get RUNTIME constants to make a key
    check this link for constants http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/b3/9a2aeb24dc4ab6b1855c99157529e4/frameset.htm
    e.g
    java.util.Map map;
    map = container.getTransformationParameters( );
    String const;
    Const = (String) map.get(StreamTransformationConstants.CONSTANT_NAMEfromlink);
    return const;
    if you want XI's information, then you can try this
    String sysSID = (String)System.getProperty("SAPSYSTEMNAME");
    OR
    String sysSID = (String)System.getProperty("user.name");

    Did you check your security software (firewall)?
    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Hii all, I just bought an used iphone 5c from an user and only after a few weeks realised that it got activation locked. He might be unaware of that. Is it possible to get back to him and unlock the device for me as i have not contacts with him presently.

    Well first you need to sync your iPhone 4 with your Mac/PC so that it will transfer all your music, apps, podcasts, etc. Then sync your iPod Touch and the media you selected during the sync should be there on your iPhone. If you have difficulty in transferring media from iPhone to your computer, try softwares like TransCopy. They will help in transferring data from your iphone to your computer. Dont forget to check that all the transferred data is in the iTunes media folder so that the iTunes can locate the files. Link to Transcopy software :

  • Is it possible to get a virus or spyware on a iPad ?

    My iPad II seems to have a virus. Notes have disappeared twice. Changes pages for no reason.
    It it possible t get a virus o spyware?
    Thank you.

    Not really.  If your ipad is jailbroken then maybe.  The ios operating system is partitioned and locked.
    For issues with notes, what type of email account do you have setup on the device.  I ask this as some email accounts allow note syncing.  As note syncing with email accounts are done OTA, there could be an issue that causes them to disappear.  You can logging to your email account and most have a note section to verify if they are present. 
    I am not sure what you mean by changing pages.  Could you elaborate on that more?

  • Can the iPhone get a virus from a link in an email?

    While trying to delete a suspicious email, my phone accidentally opened the email and clicked the link. Could I get a virus from this? Thanks!

    Not unless it's been jailbroken. If you supplied any personal information to the site you accidentally went to, consider it to be compromised.

  • Is it possible to get 15 minute appointment times on the calender without them all bunching up and being unable to follow?

    Is it possible to get 15 minute appointment times on the calender without them all bunching up and being unable to follow?
    I am wanting to replace all my PC's with Macs, ipads and iphones for my business.
    I love the whole system but as a small Physio business, I need to be able to add 15min & 20min appointments to the callendar and share with my colleagues.
    The problem I have is that they just bunch up and overlap and it becomes impossible to follow. There is no way of telling if you have any appointment spaces as it no longer shows the gaps. Also, are you able to set a default time for the appointments as it currently defaults to 1 hour (small pain in the arse but thought i'd ask while i'm here)
    If there is a way to do this or if there is any other apps out there, I'm sure it would become a very useful business tool and many more small businesses would invest in Apple systems, I've talked it through with friends with other businesses and they agree.
    Anybody have any solutions, or do Apple fancy making some simple upgrades to the software?
    Thanks

    Yep, that's basically what I'm trying to to detect JJ; which layers overlap the blue area would be the ideal result.  Which objects overlap the blue layer's bounds is an ok method, but not 100% accurate (as demonstrated by your example).  The bounds method does narrow down what layers I need to check it against, but it still returns 2 layers I need to then take extra time to check against for the actual overlap, which wouldn't be necessary if we can get the check more detailed.
    Since a more detailed way of getting the overlaps is still being looked into, I'm thinking of using EnsilZah's and/or c.pfaffenbichler's suggestions in tandem with some code they helped me with previously (here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/6256651#6256651 ) to get the actual overlaps by process of elimination on a narrowed return result using current suggestions; at least until a better/more efficient solution comes along.  I am still open to other ideas, on this topic, though.

  • When I switched computers my songs now cut off and don't play out.  How can I get my songs back to play fully that I purchased from ITunes over the past years?

    When I switched computers my songs now cut off and don't play out.  How can I get my songs back to play fully that I purchased from ITunes over the past years?

    Other people have been having similar problems with songs over the last few days, I assume that there has been a problem with Apple's servers.
    Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting those tracks from your iTunes library and redownload them via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.
    If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if they re-download in the same state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find those songs and use the 'Report a Problem' link.

    First, you need to send the project to iTunes:

    The easiest way to find out what carrier it's locked to would be to call the store where you purchased the phone.
    The phone can be unlocked from any location.  However, most carrier have restrictions about unlocking and you have to contact them for details.

  • I am getting no sound from all of the game apps on my ipad. i.e. angry birds, scrabble, but I can still get sound from the ipod app.  also I can hear the games if I am using earphones

    i am getting no sound from all of the game apps on my ipad. i.e. angry birds, scrabble, but I can still get sound from the ipod app.  also I can hear the games if I am using earphones

    You have your mute button on.  In Settings check to see if you have Lock Orientation checked or Mute checked on the right hand side.  If you have Mute checked, all you need to do is click the mute button above the volume control buttons on the upper right hand side of your iPad.  If you have Lock Orientation checked in settings, you double click your home button and the most recent apps will appear.  Swipe your finger to the right until the Mute icon appears on the left side.  Touch it and you will unmute system sounds.

  • I am not getting proper guidelines from apple regarding the querry

    I am not getting proper guidelines from apple regarding the querry, really iPhone is headache for me as I am unable to use the same from last 10 days

    If you would like help from here, you'll have to say what the problem is.  "Unable to use" and "not getting proper guidelines... regarding the query" tells nothing about your problem other than your phone isn't working.
    Also, judging by your other post where you are looking for an alternative to the iPhone, do you want a non-Apple phone or do you want your problem fixed.  No sense having people waste their time helping you fix this one if are going to get another phone.

  • When I transferred the info from an old ipod, broken, to a new one the contacts I received were from all over the place, many whom I did not even know.  Can I only restore from the last sync or can I go back further to get my old contacts?

    I recently had to replace my ipod touch.  The old one had a broken button and would not change the screen correctly.  Apple gave me a new ipod and told me all I needed to do was update the new ipod from the itunes which I had backed up prior to getting the new one.  When I did the sync , the info for my contacts was giving me names and addresses from all over the place except the itunes.  Can I retrieve info from a previous sync or only to the last sync that was made?

    Yes I did.  When installing the new ipod it had to update the software, then it sync'ed the information onto the new ipod.  The contacts were not the original ones, and all the phone numbers have dissappeared.  Is there any way to recover them?
