Received an email saying someone used FaceTime w/my ID

I upgraded the operating system on my iPad 2 to iOS7 earlier today and then received an email tonight saying that my ID was used to sign in to FaceTime and iMessage. Said if it wasn’t me then I should change my password. I didn't actively sign in to either of those today, but is it possible or likely that those sign ins occurred when I set up the iPad again after the upgrade?
I appreciate any help with this.
Jim

No. It's phishing. Please forward that email to: [email protected]
Never click on any links in the email.
Apple will never send you an email such as the one you received.
Changing your password immediately was the correct thing to do. Change your password on a timely basis for security.

HT4436 Hey I received an email saying someone logged onto my iMessage and FaceTime. Does that happen after you update the iphone? I just downloaded the new upgrade.

I spoke too soon. I tried Facetime again last night and had the same problems. Another factory reset did not work. I think it may be time to just call Apple support.

Why do I receive an email saying I used find my iPhone???

Since the new iOS 8.0.1 update I found that when I log into find my iPhone i then get an email saying: Your Apple ID was used to sign into Find My iPhone. It then proceeds to tell me what device it was (my one at this time) and the date and time. I do not want this setting on. I have looked into it and can't find the option to switch it off. This gives a potential thief the notification that the device is being tracked which is certainly NOT a good idea. Please help!!!!

The idea here is to alert you in case it was not you that was using Find My iPhone. Someone can try to crack your Apple ID from any device running FindMyiPhone (does not have to be yours) or from iCloud.com (via a web browser on a PC). They do not have to be in possession of your device to do this.
If anyone successfully does this, you will get an email, so that you know about it and can change your password right sway.
If someone actually has your device, yes they may see the notice arrive if you track the phone via the web or via an iPhone that has never been used on your AppleID before. But if they have the phone on to get the email, its too late, you;ve already got their location.
Thieves know that Find My iPhone is enabled by default. They are likely to shut the phone down to avoid being caught anyway. However, activation lock will prevent them from resetting the phone.
Don't turn off Find My iPhone, it is useful and valuable.

I finally was able to download and install mountain lion on my macbook pro. Within minutes, I received an email saying my iCloud account was accessed by my apple id. I unchecked the icloud box during the iTunes setup. Can someone tell me if this is a ha

After months of failed attempts, I finally got mountain lion loaded on my macbook pro. Shortly thereafter I received an email saying my id had been used to access icloud. During the setup process, I unchecked the icloud box so I am not sure whether this is normal or has someone else using icloud with my id. I am pretty sure that I did not select iclout for set up.

Don't worry I've sorted it! I just had to turn off Reminders as well in iCloud. Calendar then worked fine, even when I turned Calendar and Reminders back on.

I have logged in to iMessage using my id, received the email saying i logged, but still can't use it. have I done the rgistration process correctly?

Make sure the pdf has the '.pdf' extension on the file name. I've seen this a few times and adding the extension usually solves the problem.

Hi stirling r,
I have always been very weary of fake emails and can easily spot the ones that get through the spam filters but for the first time in my 25 plus years memory of using email, I though a fake email was genuine.
Ok, granted the email was supposedly from Apple so there's an implied level of trust there and I had updated my Apple ID details hours before, but it was only after doing a double take at the url link in the email I realised it was fake. It was pointing to an IP address (http://104.145.233.95/..etc) and not the usual https://www.apple.com/..etc.
I just wandered how may Apple users, especially new ones would have unwittingly compromised their Apple ID details by this scam. I would love to see Apple doing more to make its users aware of scams directed at them.
Hope this helps someone!

When I call someone using FaceTime from my mac, they can see me but no hear me. Is there something I need to do to make this happen? I also have an iPad 2 and FaceTime works great on it if I call somebody. Why no sound from my mac FaceTime using a mac pro

When I call someone using FaceTime from my mac, they can see me but not hear me. Is there something I need to do to make this happen? I also have an iPad 2 and FaceTime works great on it if I call somebody. Why no sound from my mac FaceTime using a mac pro and isight camera, mike combo.
If I use google it works. If I use Ichat, it works. If I use skype it works.

This sounds like something similar to https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3388112?start=105&tstart=0.
Try turning down the speak volume (System Preferences->Sound->Output->Output Volume) or the microphone gain (System Preferences->Sound->Input->Input Volume). Do this on both sides of the call.

for the moment you can Forcequit, as Eustace said.
Really quit a program you do by clicking the menu bar of the program where its name is, on the bottom you see "Quit (appname)"; when it is in the Dock, rightclick it in the Dock and choose "Quit".
Now about yout attachment: it does not matter what you did to it and where you moved it, as long as Preview is still open it doesn't let it go.

My 30 day Photoshop trial finished yesterday. I purchased the $9.99 per month Photoshop package and received an email saying "Thank you for your payment etc" But when I go to open PS it still says "the trial has expired.."

My 30 day Photoshop trial finished yesterday. I purchased the $9.99 per month Photoshop package and received an email saying "Thank you for your payment etc" But when I go to open PS it still says "the trial has expired.." Is it supposed to work automatically or is there a step I'm missing?

1. Close all the Adobe Applications. Log-out from creative.adobe.com and re-login.
2. Once you launch the software and when you get the error saying the the trial version has expired, you will have an option saying "License this software".
3. Select this option and enter your credentials and click next.
