Is there a virus scan for ipad

As of now there are no known viruses for the iOS operating system. So you should be relatively safe and there's no need for anti virus software.
YOu still need to practice safe intrernetting. Don't click on random links in e-mails, don't enter your personal data into sites you don't know, etc. You can still receive phishing mails and the such.
But the nature of the iOS makes it very virus resistant (with the caveat as long as you don't jail break it, if you jail break it then it's no different from other devices and you're on your own there)

  • Is there a virus scan for MacBooks?

    I was using "let me watch this" to watch survivor. I fell asleep, and when I woke up, there was an error message on my laptop, telling me I must restart my computer by holding down the power button, because my laptop was frozen. This message was in English, French, and Japanese. I'm afraid it is a virus, I could not even send the details to apple. Is there a affordable, trustworthy virus scan available for MacBooks?

    My original post asked about a virus scan, an as you know viruses are self replicated, not downloaded.
    That statement reveals a severe lack of understanding of malware, which is highly dangerous.  Most malware these days is NOT self-replicating.  Most malware comes as trojan horses, which rely on social engineering to trick users into installing them.  If you believe viruses are "not downloaded," you are at extreme risk of becoming infected.  You would do well to read my Mac Malware Guide.
    I never said I was downloading, or installing anything, I was merely watching a video.
    Many people have been "just watching videos" and gotten infected with malware as a result.  Consider, for example, the RSPlug malware, which has appeared on many less-reputable video sharing sites as a "plug-in" required to view the videos.
    Further, there is currently malware out there capable of infecting a Mac with no user interaction needed, through vulnerabilities in outdated versions of Java.  (See Flashback using Java vulnerabilities and Flashback infections becoming widespread.)  As you indicate that you are using Mac OS X 10.5.8, you are running an outdated version of Java, so if you have Java turned on in your browser, merely visiting the wrong site could infect you.
    (Note that my pages contain links to other pages that promote my services, and this should not be taken as an endorsement of my services by Apple.)

  • Is there a virus protector for ipad

    EEveryone tells me u do not need a virus protector on iPad?

    They are correct. The sandbox design where apps are keep seperate make virus protection unnecessary.

  • Is there any virus protection for iPads

    Looking to protect my iPad from viruses or hackers

    There are no known virus in the wild for iOS.  As long as you do not hack your device but leave it as stock iOS, there is nothing that can infect it.
    Also, put a passcode lock on it, and don't let others handle it outside of your presence.

  • I've just had my yahoo mail on my ipad hacked. I've changed my yahoo mail password. Is there an virus scan apps for iPad that are recommended for use?

    I've just had my yahoo mail on my ipad hacked. It seems to have used all my contact on iPad to and from. Is there any virus software for iPad I can use. I've changed my password for my yahoo account last night  already, but it seems emails are still going out. I've just been notified emails are still going out this morning

    Your iPad doesn't have a virus.
    Perhaps those mails were ones that were queued and just went out? Or maybe they rehacked your account?
    mine was hacked a couple of weeks ago and they just mailed and ran.
    You might want to change your password again.
    it's also possible that your address is just being spoofed.

  • HT2311 Is there a virus protection for the apple iPad and iPad Air and iPhone 5 that we need to use for security?

    Is there a virus protection for the apple iPads including the iPad Air and the iPhone 5, and if there is, how do we download it into our apple products? With everything that is going on it seems like I'm having more problems with freezing and crashing, getting kicked off my sites more often then ever! Is there a way to stop this?

    There is no known malware capable of infecting an iOS device, unless it has been jailbroken. Due to the security that prevents malware, real anti-virus software on iOS is not possible, so none exists.
    As to the problem, I'm unclear on exactly what you're seeing. What exactly does it mean to get "kicked off your sites?"

  • "The upload has failed. There was a problem running a virus scan for the file."  any ideas???

    "The upload has failed.
    There was a problem running a virus scan for the file. "
    This is the message i get when tryng to update
    any ideas?

    Error: "svr.VirusScanExecutionError"
    An intermittent problem with acrobat.com's underlying virus scan component causes this issue. This issue happens occasionally on a small number of server instances.
    The solution is to update the article again. Trying again typically routes you to a different host in the server array.

  • Is there a docking station for ipad mini

    Is there a docking station for ipad mini which you listen to music on?
    I have bought a logitec docking station but it has the older bigger charger fitting..!!

    Most commercial Docks are still only compatible with the 30 pin connector.
    For newer devices such as the iPAd 4 and mini and the iPhone 5, some manufacturers are putting out a few docks but there are limited.Once such dock is the JBL OnBeat Micro.

    However for the most part, wireless speakers are the way to go for these devices with the new connector.
    Either thrue Airplay or Bluetooth.

  • I was told I needed to run a virus scan before being allowed to reinstate my facebook account. What is the best way for me to download a free, but 100% safe virus scan for my iMac?

    Is there a virus scan download from Apple.com that I should use to clear my iMac before I download the latest update to Mevericks and get a clear slate to reactivate my facebook account? Thank you.

    You may have been the victim of a potential scam or responded to a pop-up trying to sell anti-virus software.
    How on earth would Facebook know you have a virus - not least because there are no viruses that can affect OS X.
    There are many forms of ‘Malware’ that can affect a computer system, of which ‘a virus’ is but one type, ‘trojans’ another. Using the strict definition of a computer virus, no viruses that can attack OS X have so far been detected 'in the wild', i.e. in anything other than laboratory conditions. The same is not true of other forms of malware, such as Trojans. Whilst it is a fairly safe bet that your Mac will NOT be infected by a virus, it may have other security-related problem, but more likely a technical problem unrelated to any malware threat.
    You may find this User Tip on Viruses, Trojan Detection and Removal, as well as general Internet Security and Privacy, useful: The User Tip seeks to offer guidance on the main security threats and how to avoid them.

  • Is there a French dictionary for iPad 2

    Is there a French dictionary for iPad 2

    There are several iOS French dictionary apps. I have the Collins English<-->French dictionary on my iPhone, which also works on the iPad. There is also one by Ultralingua which is well reviewed. Just do a search in the App Store to find one that looks like it would work for you. Bear
