Removing access to email and other information

A family member gave their phone away to a friend and (mistakenly) thought that deleting all of the information on the phone one by one (as opposed to doing the restore) would be sufficient. I think access to email and other information might still be present on the phone. Is there a way to disable access to the email account and other information remotely somehow?

Change the password for the email account, which will prevent the friend from downloading any new messages received at the incoming mail server for the account.
Without the passcode lock feature enabled, there is no way to prevent someone from accessing any data that is available on the iPhone.
Restoring the iPhone as a new iPhone is one option. The iPhone also includes an erase all contents and settings option, which is a secure erase.

Can I access my notes and other things without having to use my Ipod touch/

Is it possible for me to be able to lock or access my notes and other information just using my computer?

no but you can use icloud for some stuff if you have ios5

I lost my Iphone 5 today in Johor Bahru. Not install Find my Phone/Icloud/Offline. How to prevent others access my email and data ? Or how to remote lost mode/locking phone ?

If you didn't enable find my iphone in icloud settings on your phone, then you can't do a lost mode or lock your phone.
I would assume you had a passcode on your phone to lock it. If you didn't then start changing your passwords.
Report the lost to your phone carrier - local authorities.

If that Apple ID is yours, click here. If not, you need to contact either the account holder or the iPhone's original owner(if this is you, contact Apple.)

I can't remember my security question answer I have access to email and password pleas help me

Need help to rest security question I don't have rescu email option but I Havel access to email and my apple password

If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312

Accessing iCloud email and cal on PPC iMac

Hi guys,
I know there are thousands of posts on the changeover at the moment, but I can't find any which seem to answer my problem.
I have an iphone 3GS, which I will be moving to OS5 later
I have an ipad 2, which I'll be moving to OS5 later
I have an iMac G5 PPC running Leopard - so I can't upgrade to Lion
I have a mobileme account, which I'll be moving across to iCloud... in the process losing my gallery :-(
Now... I understand to change over to iCloud I need to do this on an OS5 or Lion platform - so will do this on my iPad. But... presumably after this I can still access my email and calendars on my iMac, despite not running Leopard? What is the process for anyone on Leopard in getting access to their emails and calendar again?
The emails Apple have sent so far have given the impression that anyone with an old computer or platform is going to be left behind if they're not fully up-to-date. So would be good to hear that this is not the case. All I want to do is to be able to get my email and calendar syncing across all devices again, I don't care about photostreaming and all that jazz.
I can't find any support links which seem to answer this. Sorry if I've missed this!!
Cheers,
Sam

Well apparently you can get Mail to link up - see here
but iCal and Address Book will not sync on anything less than Lion :-(
To think they'd consider making these fundamental features backwards compatible...
But no...

I deleted my cookies and now i can't access gmail facebook and other sites

i deleted my cookies and now i can't access gmail facebook and other sites

Thanks, but I tried that and was directed to set up a new password which I did. But, it still wouldn't let me go to my existing Gmail. I was asked to set up Gmail account. I also tried accessing my Gmail from Yahoo. Failed. Someone suggested setting up another Gmail address so that when you logged on it would ask you which Gmail to open. This didn't work and only made the problem worse. Google Help is no help. I guess the only way to access Gmail is with my iPad, but it just isn't right!

I have a problem, my wife has an ipad with photos , emails etc etc, she has recently got herself a new iPad Air, has now been using that for two or more months, more photos (new) more emails and other stuff. What she wants to do is get all she wants from ipad 1 to new ipad without finishing up with 2 of everything which happen on previous occasion. I realise that she needs to tidy up ipad 1 first and get rid of thousands of emails etc. I need help.
Thanks kiwihdrider

Hi yes that works well when the new ipad hasn't been used. Trouble new one has been used for two months or more, has lots photos email etc etc. I am worried that these will go. When we did iPhone thru same process finished up with two of most things pics and emails. The emails alone were over 2 thousand and wife reluctant to delete them all. I would and just sort pics. Any other ideas

8.0.2 - problem 1 - unable to scroll screen down or up when the keyboard is present. When typing text, I am unable to see the text I am writing due to this problem. Huge problem for emails and other cloud based providers that allow for data text entry. While the keyboard is present, I am unable to scroll down to see the text, the screen automatically scrolls back up to the top of the screen. We need a fix ASAP!

Have you tried resetting your iPad? You will not lose any data. Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Sharing apps,music ,and other information on 2 different pc and iphones.

my wife brought here 3g iphone first and has put appts, music and other information in itunes ,can I transfer the information to my itunes and scynch with my iphone?

The only data stored by iTunes in the iTunes library is iTunes content - music, video, podcasts, etc. including 3rd party apps. No other data is stored by iTunes. iTunes serves as the sync conduit between your iPhone and the supported applications on your computer for syncing contact info, calendar events, Safari bookmarks, and for transferring photos from your computer to your iPhone, but iTunes does not store any of this data.
You can transfer an iTunes library from one computer to another, but you will need to use your wife's iTunes account with iTunes on your computer if you currently have your own separate iTunes account.

4 days ago NBC announced that hackers can intercept email and other communications that are meant to be encrypted. What update fixes this issue?

4 days ago NBC announced that hackers can intercept email and other communications that are meant to be encrypted. What update fixes this issue?

First, I would avoid listening to NBC as a source for tech news. They've proven that they are not a responsible source for that kind of thing. See:
NBC severely overhypes Sochi hacking story
Second, the SSL issue is solved by upgrading to iOS 7.0.6, as Allan points out. Plug in your phone, open the Settings app and go to General, then Software Update. Download and install the update from there. You can also download it on your computer, in iTunes, and install through sync, but that download will be larger, since it's not specific to your device.
Finally, note that you still cannot trust e-mail... anything you put in an e-mail might as well be put on a postcard. SSL encryption only protects the transmission of username and password, when it comes to e-mail... the contents of the messages sent and received are not encrypted, and can be read (or even modified) by anyone between you and the sender/recipient. The only way to protect your e-mail is through some kind of signing and encryption, such as S/MIME.

Itunes crashes while adding artwork and other information

Itunes crashes while adding artwork and other information to video and music files. Killing the process is the only cure and crashes after inputing information for 5-10 video files. I have the latest version of itunes, and this did not happen to pre 10.x versions of itunes. Running windows 7 ultimate 64 bit. 64-bit iTunes.

@tposchi
I do not think it has anything to do with router at all. I have 25mbps down and 6mbps up where I live. This is not shabby at all and I have latest TimeCapsule which is acts as my router at home. Yet the latest iTuns blows up playing streams. So I use this player instead: http://www.videolan.org/vlc/index.html. Not as pretty, but at least I can play radio stream 24 hours a day with it and have no problems. iTunes 10.7 does not last one hour I too wish Apple fix it.
