Is this real? someone advise please!
I have an iPhone 5 iOS 7.1 and I got some weird popups see below.. then apple changed my device and i walked out the store with my replacement device on 7.0.6. set as new device no apps no data and got another popup (last image)... these are iOS generated popups not those misleading website popups these are proper iOS popups!! like the imei popup you get when you enter *#06#
ive been googling since weekend haven't come accross nothing similar... please advise...
Got the following iOS generated popups
Flash SMS are most certainly not illegal. They are a standard part of the SMS specification, but not that common.
They are mostly used by network providers for issuing info such as Pay-as-you-go balance messages.
However, there are a number of websites and Mobile apps that allow sending of such messages.
It's just someone playing a prank. Nothing more. Nothing is being hacked.

I am unable to access the restrictions in the accessibility settings due to the fact It is password protected. I have just purchased it so it is brand new out of the box and I have not set a password for it and I wasn't issued one with the iPad air. Can someone advise please.
They don't come with restrictions enabled, you have to turn them on and set the passcode.
When you do try to enter the restrictions area you are prompted to enter a passcode, but that means you're making it.
I'd take it back to where you bought it from and have them unlock it. -
Error B839FBD8 on officejet 6600 can not get pass this can someone help please
Hi i got a Hp officejet 6600 when i turn it on it start to load when it goes to ERROE B839FBD8
can someone help me thank you RobertHi @Robert21,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I see when you power up your HP Officejet 6600 you get an error message on the front panel 'B839FBD8'.
First I would like you to perform a hard reset on the printer:
1. Unplug all cables and memory cards from the printer. Unplug the power cord, directly from the back of the printer while the printer is still turned on.
2. Unplug the other end of the cord from the power source.
3. If there is a power module on the power cord, disconnect one end and reconnect it.
4. After 60 seconds, plug the cord directly into a wall outlet (not a surge protector or battery backup as they can cause the printer to lose basic functionality over time).
5. Plug the power cord into the back of the printer.
6. The printer should automatically power back up. If it doesn't, turn it on with the power button.
7. Try making a photocopy (if your printer is an all-in-on printer) before connecting any other cables to the printer.
8. Connect any other needed cables to the printer.
Are you still seeing the error message? If yes, please call our technical support at 800-474-6836 as it may be the printers hardware. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get the support number for your region.

My disc drive on my imac does not appear to be working. It takes the disc in but then spits it out without reading it. I have thought about purchasing an external disc drive, can someone advise me please?
Try the following:
In Finder, select the problematic volume and then press command-I.
Expand the Sharing & permissions section if it's collapsed.
If the section is locked, then unlock it by pressing the padlock button and then authenticating as directed.
Tick/check Ignore ownership on this volume. -
Every time I login I get the message "aosnotifyd wants to use your confidential information stored in "my name" in your keychain." How do I know if it is safe to allow this? Can anyone advise please?
My immediate reaction is to deny.
Have you downloaded or installed any application that may relate to the abbreviation AOS? It may not necessarily be the application's name, could be the developer or distributor.
As it's occuring at log-in, go to System Preferences > Accounts > your account > Login Items and look for a related item. If there's one there, right-click (or ctrl click) on it and select Reveal in Finder. That will show you where the originator of the item is on your system and should give you more of a clue as to what it is.
I'd remove the item from login items anyway (highlight and click the minus sign at the bottom of the window). There shouldn't be anything trying to use your keychain info to notify anyone. -

ever since i put a child lock on my Mac its never been the same .. now i cant even open my yahoo mail without it wanting me to reinstall this, can someone please help me work this out
What "child lock" are you talking about?
Do you mean you set up a Managed account (Parental Controls), or some other software?
For Parental Controls, select the account in Users & Groups and uncheck the "Enable parental controls" checkbox. -
I have just selected all my desktop icons and accidentally deleted them. This included my external hard drive with 22,000 photos in iPhoto. I cannot open iPhoto now. Can someone help please?
What is the file system of that external HD? is it MacOS Extended (Journaled)?
Which iPhoto version do you have?
If you directly select the iPhoto Library in the Finder and use "File > Get Info", does the library still show as "Kind: iPhoto Library" and is the file size correct for 22000 Photos?
If the library does no longer have the correct size, restore it from your backup.
But if the library has the correct size, try to open it directly by clicking it. This should work, if your iPhoto version is iPhoto '11. -
I am getting the error message "No AirPort card installed" Restarting my iMac desktop does not solve this (Apple help says I need to reset the SMC this way, but nothing changes). Can somebody advise, please?
Thanks for the flag J.K. - they contaced me and solved my problem. On this account (which I created just to ask this question), I log in with my email rather than my user name (mtalldud). On the account that I was having trouble with, they told me to use my user ID instead of my email to log in and it worked. This is a bit confusing and seems a bit inconsistent but at least I don't need this temporary account any more to get into this community and find answers!

And one-year free repair service. Three years or more for tech support and repair if you bought the AppleCare Protection Plan, which is the best warranty policy available for desktop machines. Get it if you don't have it before contacting Apple.

If someone phones my mobile number, they are prompted to leave a 10-second message which them comes to me as a text. I want real voicemail with real voices but I don't know how to set it up on my iPhone4S. Can someone help please?
Ask your wireless provider. None of what you describe has to do with the phone itself.

I have created a flyer in mac pages and need to get it to a printer to do a mass gloss printing. can someone advise how to do this.. should i and can i burn the document to a cd or dvd to give to the printer?
ThanksSome may need a CD while others may need a DVD or can use either medium. Why not call your printer, tell them what you've got and ask them what they need to do the job you want done? That way, you'll be working with what he/she needs to complete the job properly.

Since updating the new software on my iphone5 I cannot sign in to FaceTime. It advises me to check my internet connection which is working ok. Please can someone advise me.
Hey jeanettefromiw,
Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues signing into FaceTime on your iPhone 5. The following resources should assist you in troubleshooting these issues:
iOS: Troubleshooting FaceTime and iMessage activation
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4268
If you see "Could not sign in, please check your network connection and try again" when signing in to your Apple ID
Update to the latest version of iOS.
Verify that you have a data connection by going to www.apple.com in Safari. You can complete Apple ID activation using Wi-Fi or a cellular data connection. If you need help connecting to Wi-Fi, follow these steps.
If you're using Wi-Fi, make sure that your local Wi-Fi network is using the recommended Wi-Fi settings.
Sign in to your account and ensure that the primary email address and alternate e-mail addresses have been verified. If verification is pending, follow the instructions in the email Apple sent to that email address to complete verification. Or remove the e-mail addresses from the account.
If your Apple ID isn't an email address, you can change it. The Apple ID that you're using to activate FaceTime or iMessage must be an email address. Find more information on how to change your Apple ID.
Tap Settings > General > Date & Time. Make sure that your iPhone is set to the correct time zone. If Set Automatically is on but the wrong time zone appears, turn Set Automatically off and choose the correct time zone, date, and time.
Enable iMessage and FaceTime while connected to a different Wi-Fi network (in a different location) if a cellular data connection is not available.
Thanks,
Matt M. -
I submitted my podcast and I got an email saying error, I checked with the feed validator and got this message: This feed does not validate. line 40, column 6: Undefined item element: itunes:order, how do sort this out, someone help me please.
Ignore it. 'itunes:order' is a recent addition which FeedValidator doesn't know about. If your podcast is rejected that is unlikely to be the reason. Of course as you haven't posted the feed URL nor the text of the error message I can't make any further comment.
