  • I just got an email from Apple, asking me to complete a survey.  If I don't then I'll loose my Apple ID.  I think this is spam/virus/hacker.  Anybody have any info on this?

    i just got an email from Apple, asking me to complete a survey.  If I don't then I'll loose my Apple ID.  I think this is spam/virus/hacker.  Anybody have any info on this?

    There have been a number of phishing scam emails going around for at least half a year...do not respond, click links, or do anything with that email.  Apple does not operate that way.

  • HT5622 I just got an email that the name and credit card on my apple id was changed.  Is it a scam?

    I just got an email that the name and credit card on my Apple ID was changed....is this a scam??

    If it's asking you confirm anything or in any way provide personal information, then yes, it's almost certainly a scam. See:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4933
    Just delete the message; do not reply to it or provide any sort of personal information through any of the links in the email. You can sign into your iTunes Store account directly through iTunes and confirm that nothing has changed.

  • I've just got an email that came into my junk folder asking me to reset my account is this spam?

    I've just got an email that came into my junk folder asking me to reset my account is this spam?
    It claims there was suspicious activity as there was a log in attempt from an unknown device then provides a link o enter my data, which I haven't done, why would apple be asking for my credit card details?

    It is a phishing attempt. Do not respond. Do not divulge any personal or financial information. You can use the address below to forward the suspect email message to Apple.

    The link below has information to help identify fraudulent emails.

  • HT1933 my 9 year old used my password to make a purchase that she thought was $0.99 and it was really $99.00 and I just got the email. It tells me that this purchase is not eligible for a refund so am I screwed?

    my 9 year old used my password to make a purchase that she thought was $0.99 and it was really $99.00 and I just got the email. It tells me that this purchase is not eligible for a refund so am I screwed?

    If the iTunes Store has replied to your request and told you that they cannot refund your money, then yes, I'm afraid you're out of luck as regards this purchase. To prevent this from happening again, turn off "In App purchases" in the Restrictions settings on your iPhone. You may also want to turn off the ability to install apps, to prevent purchases in case the child gets hold of your iTunes Store account information, and set the password to be required immediately. For more information, see:

  • HT204053 My wife just got this iPad mini and I want to copy the address book on my iPad 2 over to the mini. Can I use iCloud to do this?

    My wife just got this iPad mini and I want to copy the address book on my iPad 2 over to the mini. Can I use iCloud to do this and what are the steps. The 2 devices have different Apple IDs.

    Download the "My Contacts Backup" app from App Store to your iPad 2. Make a backup and send it by email to your wife's address. Open this email from iPad mini and tap the attachment to import the contacts into iPad mini Contacts app.

  • HT5622 I think my granddaughter bought a $3.99 app after I put the password in for a free app.  How can I find out what she purchased?  Can I get credit for it?  I just got an email from my credit card confirming the purchase.

    I think my granddaughter bought a $3.99 app after I put the password in for a free app.  I just got an email from my credit card confirming the purchase.  How can I find out what she purchased?  Can I get credit for it? 

    The password is good for 15 minutes to make purchases. You should receive a receipt in 24 to 48 hours for the purchases. There is a link to Report an issue. You could use that to start a conversation with iTunes Support about a refund.
    Apple considers all sales final. But has been known to offer a one time refund. So the question is, do you want to use your one time refund on this purchase or one more expensive in the future?

  • So I got this email this morning about my apple ID and that I have to review my apple ID information. Failure to do this will result in the deletion of my apple ID and iCloud. Says it needs to be done within 48 hours. Is this legit?

  • Hi guys, My iphone got stolen yesterday, it was off but i've just got an email the last place my iphone was found yesterday night and again it got off, i went to the address but they said they have not found any iphone, what should i do?

    Hi guys,
    My iphone got stolen yesterday night, I activated lost mode but the phone was off and couldnt be tracked, today i just got an email about the last place the phone was found yesterday night, its off again, i went there but they said that nobody has found an iphone, police does not do anything also, what should i do?

    My iPhone was stolen. Straight away I used the findmyiphone app. No surprise that the phone had been turned off, rendering the app totally useless.
    I thought its ok, I've got a pin code. My brother then goes on to tell me that they are easily bypassed.
    My brother states that if you put an iPhone in dfu mode, connect that iPhone too iTunes
    That iTunes detects the said phone is in dfu mode and does a system restore.
    Wiping the phone and giving the Theif a brand new iPhone!!!
    Someone from apple please tell me WHY THIS CAN HAPPEN?!

    Dear client(e),

    This purchase was initiated from 'BRAZIL'
    If you made this purchase you can ignore this email, but if it was made in error, or if you believe an unauthorized person accessed your account, please reset your account informations immediately by going to
    ireset.appleaccount.com => Confirm that you're the account holder and then
    change your password.

    used to make more orders in our stores, and then we'll be obliged to block it.
    Thanks,,

    It's a phishing attempt to get your account and payment details, it's not from Apple - if you clicked on the links in it and entered your details then you should change your password immediately e.g. by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store on your iPad and selecting 'view apple id' on the popup and signing into it, via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes or via http://appleid.apple.com
    If you still have the email then you could forward it to Apple : [email protected]

  • I got an itunes giftcard for my birthday and when i tried to add it on my balance on my ipod touch it says the code you entered is not  recognized as a valid code. but i just got this card brand new for my birthday.

    i got an itunes giftcard for my birthday and when i tried to add it on my balance on my ipod touch it says the code you entered is not  recognized as a valid code. but i just got this card brand new for my birthday.

    Make sure you're using the correct code. For most iTunes cards, the code is under the scratchoff area on the back of the card. For more information, see this support article:
