Is this a scam? - please respond
I keep getting Skype calls from "online Support at Skype" and I don't trust it. I don't know what it is about and I keep "not accepting" the calls. But they continue.... I'm asked to go to a link provided because it says I have a problem with my security settings. Can someone tell me if this is legit. I refuse to open these until I know...and they keep bugging me, calling again and again. Thank you!

HT2693 Is there a app from iTunes that's called iCloud recovery our is this a scam please tell me
I need to know is there a app at iTunes for iCloud recovery i'v got a app from there and it's called iCloud recovery or is this a scam please tell its not thank you
That app, if you mean the one from Geminare, is not for Apple's iCloud service despite the incorrect naming of the app, unless I've missed something. The app is for use with Geminar's own cloud-based services.

I synced my ipad to my itunes store on my computer and a bar showed up on the bottom of the screen showing how many gigabytes i was using. Now i cant click on the screen to move the app from itunes to my ipad for some reason, or my movies/ music for that matter either. The real reason i am doing this is because i accidently erased the app store and dont want to erase all the apps i already have on their. So if someone can help me get the app store or fix the syncing problem that would be great because i use it for school which requires certain app be installed. Please respond quickly!

As the title says, this is a brand new iPod touch bought from a store, I plugged it in a commenced the "setting up" process through iTunes on may iMac. It got to the stage where it said allow this computer to access the device (or something along those lines), i clicked yes, and then a message came up "to allow access, please respond on your iPod touch. however the ipod screen is black, and pressing the buttons doesn't work. How can i fix this? or do I need to return it?
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I am unable to dial India toll free numbers from my iphone, these numbers are like 1800-***-1515. There is nothing as dial assist in Ios7.1.1 which i can disable and dial in india toll free numbers.Please respond if anyone has any solution
Check this post, the dial assist is part of the iOS 7.1, according to page 49 of the iphone_user_guide
Make calls to your contacts and favorites while traveling abroad. (GSM) Go to Settings > Phone and turn on Dial Assist. Dial Assist automatically adds the prefix or country code for calls to the U.S.
This user had a similar problem and solved it by switching off the dial assist feature in Settings/Phone/Dial Assist

IPhone 5 screen is black, when I connect to ITunes it says "to allow access please respond to your Iphone". Impossible with a black screen, does anyone know what the prompt is?
Hey 11doski,
Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like the display has a dark screen. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
Display has no backlight or dark screen
Toggle the ringer switch to see if the unit vibrates. If it does, it could be that iPhone is getting power, but is not displaying any image.
Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
While connected to the iPhone charger, try to reset the iPhone.
If the low-battery screen appears, charge the iPhone.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a nice day,

IPod nano problems! PLEASE RESPOND ASAP!!
HELP!
A couple days ago I had to re-format the computer due to a virus. I didn't save any of the songs that were on iTunes. That night I listened to some songs on my iPod. The next day I plugged it in my computer for it to charge. When it was done charging, I went to listen to some songs but there were NO SONGS ON IT!! I have no clue what happened... has this happened to anyone? Does anyone know how to fix it? Please respond ASAP!
Thanks,
Molly =)
Windows XPHi Molly,
Welcome to Apple Discussions
Copying songs from your iPod to your computer
"The iTunes library on your computer holds all the songs you've encoded from your CD collection or purchased from the iTunes Music Store. With default settings, iTunes automatically copies the songs in your library to your iPod. When you use your iPod as a hard disk, you can't see the songs iTunes copies to your iPod in the Finder or My Computer. This is normal. Using the Finder or My Computer, you can't copy these song files from your iPod back to iTunes or to any other computer. The synchronization between your iPod and your computer is always one way: from iTunes to iPod.
If you've erased the music library on your computer, there's no way to use the Finder or My Computer to copy the songs from your iPod to reconstitute the library on your computer. One solution is to encode the songs from your CD collection again, then sync your new library with iPod. If you purchased songs from the iTunes Music Store and didn't back them up, there's no way to download them again. You'll have to buy new copies of the songs."
Taken from Using your iPod as a hard disk
So even if there were any tracks on your iPod, Apple has set it so you shouldn't be able to get them back.
You need to reload iTunes with music, and then get into the habit of backing them up as well. Once you've done that you can start loading onto the nano.
To help with backing up your music this link will explain what the files are:
What are the iTunes library files?
If you have problems with your nano here is a useful link:

Account problems - PLEASE RESPOND
F.A.O. OTN Customer Team,
I posted these issues 12 days ago and have had no reply, please respond:
1. I have changed jobs and created a new account using [email protected] Could you please remove my old account jdjwright / [email protected] Note I no longer have access to my old email address but can provide further account details if required.
2. When I created my new account my company address state/province was not listed. My postal city is London and I would have expected to see Greater London in the state/province drop-down list but it is not available. I eventually selected Berkshire instead which is not correct. Can you please remove Berkshire from my address and/or add Greater London to the state/province drop-down list?
JossHey there , welcome to the community!
The only way to do this would be to create a new Spotify account using your e-mail address. If you contact the accounts team through the online contact form they can definitely set you up with a new account and transfer over all your music content. If you receive an automated e-mail directing you back to the community, just reply to it and you will hear from a representative within 24-48 hours. -
I have an iPad 1. I downloaded PrintCentral Pro and also the Bonjour Printer Wizard as prompted. I still can not print. What am I missing? I am new to this...Please help. Thank you!
Depending on what you are trying to print you may have to print from within the app. For example, to print an email or web page you have to open what you want to print from print central pro. If your printer is not a supported printer there is another app from the same developer that allows you to print from your iPad to your printer via a wired pc. You may want to drop them an email. They have pretty good customer service and respond to emails very quickly.

HHi guys, hope you can help..
i Managed to smash the screen on my iPhone 5 at the weekend, done it properly! most of the glass has come out and the screen is completey black And unresponsive. I'm over due an upgrade with Vodafone at the moment and I'll be getting the Iphone six.
im trying to connect my broken iPhone 5 to my laptop so I can back everything up.. However when I plug the phone in, the computer gives me a warning sign saying 'do you want to allow this computer to access information on your iphone' obviously I press continue and get put to another loading bar saying 'to allow access, please respond on your iPhone'
this is my issue, I cannot see or press the confirmation button on my iPhone.. Is there a way of getting around this?
many thanks,
AdamIf you have not previously synced your iPhone with your computer there is no way around it. If there was, anyone who found or stole your phone could get your information off it. Did you perhaps set it up to back up to iCloud?

To allow access, please respond on your iPad...but the screen is black!
I was running Netflix and the app was taking many minutes so I decided to turn the iPad off. Held the Sleep/Wake button and it went off. Gave it a minute and held the S/W button again and....nothing.
I thought perhaps the battery was low so I plugged it in for an hour. Pressed the S/W button. Nothing.
If I hold the S/W and Home, then release both, I get the white apple logo for a few seconds, then it fades and...nothing.
I got online and went through the reset, then attempting to Restore with iTunes (per iOS: Not responding or does not turn on). I hold the Home button, plug the cable in, get a popup on the computer that asks "Do you want to allow this computer to access information on this iPad?. While STILL holding down the home button (even tho the screen is black), I click 'Continue' on the computer dialog. Then after a few seconds, I get another iTunes dialog "To allow access, please respond on your iPad". Still holding the Home button as directed in the Restore steps. and...nothing.
If I try again (unplug, reset everything) then do the #3 step above to get the Apple logo while the "To allow access" is still up on the computer, the dialog goes away while the white apple is on the iPad, then returns when the apple fades away.
If I try again (yes, I've been through the Restore several times with multiple variations :-) ) by getting the Apple logo up, THEN plugging the cable in, the iTunes computer dialog does not appear until the apple fades.
Anything else I can try before returning to the Apple store? I do some Windows support and know sometimes it's the obvious thing that is missing, so I really don't want to drive an hour to the store, just to be told, "Well, if you'd read through page 47 of iPad for dummies, and you'd just done _<fill in the blank>____, it would have resolved itself"
Thanks,
BRUpdate: Took it to the genius bar and he was unable to get any more out of the pad than I was. We did find the battery drained so something was going on in the background. It was out of warranty so the best the store said they could do was a half-price replacement. We took it and I was watching netflix again tonight and it went into the same hang state (cancelling with its red loop). This time I went to the interwebs and found a way to reset the network. I was able to get it back. Bye bye netflix app :-/
