Yep, but again, not as easily done as it once was. Since it's illegal in most of the world & most carriers have provisions in place to stop such, you really need to know what you're doing to do such.

    Call it phishing or not, any website designed to emulate another with the primary goal of obtaining one's personal information through deception is easily accomplished. You called it a façade, which is as good an description as any. It can be performed with most an hour of work, and uploaded to any server willing to host it. They have been known to be attached to legitimate websites, often educational institutions for which security is lax, and in which many people with too much time on their hands have sufficient privileges to modify the site at will.
    Constructing a more elaborate website that faithfully reproduces a secure webmail page populated with functional links would simply take more effort with probably more individuals working on it, but it is by no means beyond the realm of possibility.
    Perhaps the Apple Genius was describing something different, or not, but the point is that it is certainly possible for someone to screen or otherwise view your email messages. It's simple, given just a couple of pieces of your account information. The most common means of obtaining that information is through deception, a low-tech social exploit that has been with us for thousands of years.

  • I download quite a few magazines through the app store on my iPad. I just bought an iMac and was wondering if there is a way to transfer those purchases over so that I could read them on my Mac?

    You should be able to use the OpenVPN Connect app running on your iPad to connect your iPad to the VPN directly. It is an official OpenVPN client for iOS devices.
    In what way is it "not compatible"? Have you tried it? Tunnelblick is an OpenVPN client, so your school's VPN is using the OpenVPN protocol. That means any OpenVPN client should be able to access it. (It is possible, but unlikely, that your school uses encryption that is not available on the iPad, but that would be very unusual.)
    Otherwise, a remote control app on your iPad would let you control your Mac at home. "Back to My Mac", for example, would allow you to control your Mac remotely. The tricky part of this is that usually a VPN is set up to send all Internet traffic via the VPN server, and I'm not sure how that would work with "Back to My Mac".

  • Is it possible that Verizon could have screwed things up more than this?

    I contacted Verizon 10 days ago about internet and cell phone service the person I spoke with told me that Verizon did not offer internet in Illinois and I should call something called Frontier Communications
    I should have taken this as a sign that I shouldn't do business with Verizon
    Instead I went to your office on State street in Chicago. I was told that
    Verizon does in fact have internet, they have an arrangement with ComCast. I was told
    if I signed a 2 year contract, the first 6 months would be  $20 a month and then the price
    would be $40 a month for rest of the contract.
    I signed up and was given an account number and a number to call ComCast
    When  I spoke to Comcast, I was told that there was no agreement with Verizon
    I went back to Verizon, Verizon called Comcast. Now Comcast was saying there was a agreement but the terms were different
    It was now $20 a month for 6 months, but no contract. After 6 months there was no guarantee what could happen
    to the price. There could be another promotion,  it could go up
    I agreed reluctantly and signed up
    The earliest appointment was the following Monday.
    I had to leave work early for the appointment. I won't get paid for this missed time
    I was given a time frame for when the ComCast Technician would show up. He was late; he arrived after the timeframe
    I had ordered wireless internet. I know I ordered wireless because I discussed this with the comcast rep when I placed the order
    We talked about how many devices could use the wireless at the same time, how far I could be from the router, whether there was a separate router and modem or if it was one unit, if I could buy my own rather than rent it, etc.
    The technician did not have wireless equipment with him. He said the order didn't indicate that it was wireless.
    I asked if he could install what he had since I had been waiting almost a week for the internet and then I could go to their office to swap it
    He said no, a technician had to install it. If he installed what he had and they sent out another technician later with a wirelss router
    they would charge me a second installation charge
    The worst part though, is the earliest they can have someone back out is Wednesday ,ten more days later
    That means almost three weeks with no internet at home and I have to take off from work again and lose more pay to wait for the technician again
    I do computer support. I'm on call for work. If I get called out at night and don't have internet, I have to go downtown in the middle of the night

    I understand that you are frustrated with the yes/no/yes regarding internet through Verizon.  I am assuming you are referring to DSL or fiber optic internet with Wi-Fi, since you state the internet service is actually provided by Comcast.  That is as far as my understanding goes.  Your post is titled "Is it possible that Verizon could have screwed things up more than this," but the rest of your complaints (please understand I do not argue the validity of your anger or frustration) are, in fact, regarding services rendered (or not) by Comcast.
    I used to have a bundle with Centurylink internet, Directv satellite, and Verizon Wireless.  I got a separate bill from Verizon but I got a discount for the Centurylink and Directv bill by linking my cell phone numbers and creating a "triple play."  Centurylink had ridiculous scheduling issues with their techs, and it took five calls and two weeks to actually get the internet hooked up, at 1.5 mbps as the lines couldn't accommodate the 10 mbps the rep offered.  I was upset with Centurylink, not Verizon.  I had upgraded my cell phones through Centurylink, but if/when I had any issues, I called Verizon.
    The issues you are describing are not within Verizon's control, which should have been clear when you had to speak with Comcast to set up the account and order.  You need to call Comcast to resolve it, and the sooner the better.  I had a horrible time trying to recoup money I paid to Directv after breaking the bundle, and eventually Centurylink refunded my money since the were the ones refusing to release my payments to Directv, saying I had a bundle but they could not discuss billing for Directv service. Almost all companies have a window for refunds and billing disputes, and Centturylink gave me the runaround until I demanded escalation.  Once the dispute period is over you don't have a leg to stand on for credits or anything else.  I had to get noisy to get results, and you might have to as well.
    Step one is calling Comcast and placing the blame where it belongs, then work toward a solution to rectify the lost time and frustration.

  • I see "imac-54f9d5" under the "Shared" heading in my finder. I am not connected to any printers or other Mac devices. Is it possible that someone is remotely accessing my system? How can I figure out what this is?

    is it your imac?
    is it your your router's name?
    are you by any chance connected to another wifi router then your own because the other one was open and not password protected?

  • I have just been told by Adobe that I have to UNINSTALL ALL PREVIOUS VERSIONS OF THEIR APPLICATIONS IN ORDER TO USE THE NEW 2014 VERSIONS.

    I have just been told by Adobe that I have to UNINSTALL ALL PREVIOUS VERSIONS OF THEIR APPLICATIONS IN ORDER TO USE THE NEW 2014 VERSIONS. No software update is worth the time it will take to do that!!!!! I don't know about the rest of you but I am woefully disappointed in Adobe. I pay on time every single month SINCE CREATIVE CLOUD BECAME AVAILABLE and now they place this on me? NOT HAPPY.

    THE LATEST AND THE LAST:
    Oh, and I'm on a MAC, not a PC so how could my database be corrupted?
    Shruthi: The caps.db file is located in Library/Application Support/Adobe/caps folder
    Shruthi: Can you try uninstalling from Adobe installers.
    Susan Meredith: You folks don't understand. Most of us are very excited at the new "bells and whistles" that Adobe has introduced and in the past we've been able to QUICKLY update to the new version. We haven't had to uninstall anything to get the new. We are all working and have deadlines. This is A HARDSHIP ON ADOBE'S USERS AND THEY NEED TO FIX IT ON THAT END. Or give up some monthly fees.
    Susan Meredith: There are many ways to uninstall. I can do it through "CleanMyMac". But now I don't trust that Adobe's programs will actually download and then I'm in trouble...and out of business.

    Hi timothyh,
    Adobe doesn't offer those services, but you might try looking here: Planet PDF - The PDF User Community - Debenu.

    ??? Your right in the neighborhood of... Where's my box. Did you receive a contact or tracking number? I guess I would make a couple of calls to Apple to see where things are. Good luck. Cheers.
