Opera is trying to get my contact info and whenever I click on the link

Slightly off topic but very concerning. Opera is trying to get my contact info and whenever I click on the link to this thread in my email, it pops up. This is the first time this ever happened. Oh yea, I don't have Opera installed on my computer. What the.......?

take everything off line, any clone or backups incl TimeMachine and rebuild the launchd services for one thing.
for another, and whether it is or isn't malware, is to have a clean system from day #1 you can restore or use.
Or just follow the guides on how to setup and do a clean ML OS install. Download, burn to flash memory and setup ML on a drive. And put that system on a sparse disk image and put it somewhere, and so you can also use it to restore the system if ever needed.

It is pretty hard to get malware onto a Mac.

My iphone 4 was crushed on the road. Bought a 4 replacement tried to restore it in itunes to get my contact info and it said there was a problem with my phone and I should contact apple store. What does that mean please?

Is the replacement exactly the same as the original ie same memory size & same version? If so it may require updating the OS software before trying to restore your stuff from the backup.

Try reset ipad. Hold down Sleep and Home button for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo.

Dear Al
Thanks for your reply.
I have just found out what's wrong. I went to the 'more info' section of my Chitchat application and it took me to a link where it explained that Yahoo Chat has ditched chatting with the Java protocol and chatters can now only chat via the Yahoo Messenger protocol, which is Yahoo Instant Messenger with Voice. Unfortunately Yahoo doesn't provide a platform for Yahoo Voice for Macintosh computers. Though the original link I went to provides another link to a thing called 'Adium' from which a Mac can access Yahoo Chat's new protocol, although it's not fully developed yet.
Oh...and thanks so much for letting me know about the Java update release. I did not know that I have to upgrade my system first to recieve the latest update information.
Regards
Tina

Trying to get my contact list from Outlook Express to fly over to my new iPAD. Will appreciate any suggestions.

Outlook Express accesses an address book app called Windoze Contacts for contact info, which the iPad supports syncing contacts with. This is selected under the Info tab for your iPad sync preferences with iTunes.

You are right, Adobe does not support CS5 because it is no longer sold.
Simply download the trial version of CS5 from this Adobe web site and input your serial number.

HT4623 I am trying to get my contacts of an old Iphone. It show the Itunes logo and the usb portion of the plug in cord. How can I get that to go away so I can get my old contacts off of it?

I am trying to get my contacts of an old iphone 3. It show the Itunes logo and the usb connector of the phone charger. How can I get that off the phone and access my contacts.
Ideas anyone?

You need to plug it in to iTunes. Once it starts working again, back up the old iPhone to iCloud then go to iCloud in settings. Turn on contacts then you get them back. Another option is to back up to iTunes with the old one, then on the new one, go on iTunes, click restore backup, and choose the old iPhone. I suggest using icloud. Hope it helps!

At Apple Store we reset my Iphone 4s to factory settings in an unsuccessful bit to fix my Wi-fi problem. Now I'm home trying to get my contacts, pics, etc. back. I'm lost...

Tried to change my billing info and got an error message 413.
How about supplying a phone number and a real person instead of the inpersonal online activity that apparently does not work.

Hello Dennis,
please give us feedback, whether you had been successful. If not, maybe we can interest a qualified and educated employee of Adobe's staff.
Nevertheless I normally I would use Contact Customer Care = http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html, by clicking through the headlines.
If none of the conditions is fulfilled, and if "open" please use chat, I had the best experiences. I quote from Preran: The chat button is activated as soon as there is an agent available to help.
Good luck!

My iphone plus is bending, what does Apple offer regarding this issue?
I am trying to get to contact with Apple Customer Care, but not clear to me how to do it beside this channel of communication. I bought the phone from kosovar carrier which is under Slovenian ownership. This means that the original warranty comes from Slovenia, bit complicated but still I would like to get an urgent answer how to proceed with this issue, thanks

Maybe i should have only asked if anyone is aware on apple's policy
regarding bending. I took the point that this seems not a proper forum to
pose Q's to apple thanks to both

Hi jim or viola,
If you are having issues tranfering your content from your old iPhone to your new iPhone, you may find the following article helpful:

As for iTunes, you may need to download it manually to your new computer first. You can find the most recent version at the following page:

I just got an iphone today and switched from a galaxy samsung and am trying to get my contacts?

Trying to get my contacts from my samsung stratsophere to my new iphone 4s

Where were your contacts stored? On the SIM? Or in a Google account? Or what?
If the former, go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Import SIM Contacts, if your previous phone uses the same size SIM card (Micro SIM) as your iPhone, and you have put it in your iPhone.
If the latter, go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Add Account, put in your credentials, and make sure Contacts is ON.

I had to replace my i4s with another one from the apple store.shouldn't i be able to go to the cloud to get all my contact info and other stuff that was stored in the cloud from the first phone?

i had to replace my i4s phone with another one from the apple store. i need to download all my contact info and other stuff from the cloud to my new phone.i see a screen that says RESTORE I PHONE and are you sure you want to restore the iphone to its facory settings? all of your media and other data will be erased. they i tunes will verify restore with apple. After this you will have the option to restore your contacts and other settins. The question is will it restore my first phones info? I am hesitant to delete anything lol.

No. If you made your backup to iCloud, iTunes will not restore from an iCloud backup. See:
