Spam email getting on iPhone even though blocked on computer

So just about 2 days ago someone obvisially got my email and so for some reason I am getting it on my iPhone.
What is weird is that when I log onto gmail online, I don't see any spam in my inbox, it's being blocked.
So it's somehow only getti on my phone.
Any suggestions?

Sounds like your email program has SPAM filters set in it.
The iPhone is connecting to your mail server, thus gets what is on the mail server.
Your home computer does the same but then filters as it comes in with spam software/filters (however you have it setup)
For me, my spam filters are set on my mail server itself so spam is filtered out before any computer/device even checks for mail, thus I don't get spam on my computer or on my phone.
Consider a mail service that filters spam at the server level.

  • TS3798 I can't get wifi on my iphone even though my desktop computer can get the internet.  I thought it was a problem with the modem so I got a new one ...but still the same problem (my computer gets internet but my iPhone cannot get wifi from it).  PLEA

    I was always able to get WiFi on my iPhone through my home computer.  Then all of a sudden it went out (uses 3G network instead of WiFi).  Sometimes it would connect back to WiFi for a few seconds then back to 3G.  I then decided it was the modem so I got a new modem.   Well, I have no problem getting internet on my home computer but cannot still get WiFi on my iPhone from my computer.  What do I need to do - HELP!!

    Thank you again.
    Yes, it worked. First, I just replaced the all info. as before,  the router IP also (Stupid) , not success.
    So, I created the new network, then, the Router IP automatically showed up .
    I think the old setting still there under my Airport station (so, 2 setting right now)?
    Anyway, my iPad and iPod touch works well with the new wi-fi network.
    Thank you very much.
    I got this Airport Extreme from a friend who wen to Time Capsule, still have the box and serial No. but will not work for Apple Phone support.
    I appreciate for your fast help.

  • Why does my iphone 4s gets really hot even though im not using it, battery drain's 2% every 5 minutes.. and its just in my pocket,. what will i do?

    some thing is runnng in the back ground. Or your email is struck. Deleted all emails and reboot phone and add them one by one. Or your sim cards has problem. Replace sim card. If nothing works drain battery then recharge battery to 100% full charge.

  • Even though block popup windows is unchecked in content tab of options, I am still not getting any popups. Please help me.

    Hi - Even though block popup windows is unchecked in content tab of options, I am still not getting any popups. Please suggest how to over come this problem.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
    *Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

    Did you make sure that your security software isn't blocking the pop-ups?
    Boot the computer in Windows Safe Mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test.

  • I'm trying to get organized and I just added a bunch of books and pdfs to my itunes library. They were all added immediately to my ipad and iphone even though, itunes automatically putting books on my idevices

    I'm trying to get organized and I just added a bunch of books and pdfs to my itunes library. They were all added immediately to my ipad and iphone even though I did not want this. I added them to itunes using add to library and I have both devices set to sync only selected books.
    How do I do this in the future so this doesnt happen? Its a lot of work to now manually erase them from each device and it sent my phone over capacity.
    thanks

    I dont see the difference in the posts. I dont think theres anything inaccurate or misleading about what I wrote. The items were immediately added to my ipad and my iphone, even though I have them both set to sync only select items. As soon as I added new titles to my itunes library, they were immediately added to the devices. Not on the next sync. Immediately. Both devices were plugged into the computer at the time. Sorry if I failed to mention they were plugged in but I dont see the signifigance youre making out of it. The problem persists anyway.
    Now that I did a test without the devices plugged in, the new items were still added as soon as I plugged my devices into the computer ( I do not have them set to sync over wifi).
    Since I have both devices set to manually select items to sync, of course I want to manually select new items to sync. For instance, I am not going to read any of these magazines or books on my phone, ever, and I dont want to waste valuable space with them.
    So I'm trying your advice:
    I just tried deselecting sync books. It erased all content from ibooks on my device. I then dragged
    one title onto the device, and it just goes back to syncing select books, with the one title selected.
    It appears that wont work to solve my issue. The next time I add something to itunes it will be put on my phone. Is this really something most people want? To select to manualy control what content is synced, but then have things automatically added. It seems inconsistent to me.

  • HT1386 I have an app called ipieta which was originally downloaded onto an ipod. I gave the ipod to someone else, but now that I've had the iphone I can not get the audio even though it is downloaded into itunes music like it said to do.  It won't work.

    I have an app called ipieta which was originally downloaded onto an ipod. I gave the ipod to someone else, but now that I've had the iphone I can not get the audio even though it is downloaded into itunes music like it said to do.  It won't work.  I've tried more than several times to get help but nothing helps. Do I need to deauthorize the ipod or perhaps erase all the downloaded ipieta stuff and start over?
    Thanks for any suggestions

    Sorry. There's nothing anyone can do. The current version of the facebook app will not run on 4.2.1. The iPhone 3G won't run anything higher than 4.2.1. You're stuck.
    Maybe it's time to buy yourself a new iPod Touch.

  • When I got my ipod I made an account with iTunes from my ipod.yesterday, I made a password lock to get into my ipod and I couldn't get into it even though I did the correct one. Now it says"connect to iTunes" BUT I can't because I never registered. HELP!!

    When I got my ipod I made an account with iTunes right from my ipod.Yesterday, I made a password lock to get into my ipod and I couldn't get into it even though I did the correct one. Now it says"connect to iTunes" BUT I can't because I never registered on the computer. I've tried holding the home and sleep/wake button for 10 sec and then only the home for 5sec and that might have reset it, but it didn't help. If any of you guys know what to do so I can unlock it I would appreciate it VERY much.

    If you haven't done so install iTunes on your computer. http://www.apple.com/itunes/
    Follow the instructions here: iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

  • The file to download the app for Android is not working from my phone--it says that the file isn't there. However it does see the one for the Iphone (even though it can't use it). I'm very computer literate and am pretty sure the problem is on your end.

    The file to download the app for Android is not working from my phone--it says that the file isn't there. However it does see the one for the Iphone (even though it can't use it). I've tried it multiple times and continue to get the same message: "NOT FOUND The requested item could not be found". I also tried through the Market application on the phone but ended-up with the same result.
    I'm very computer literate and am pretty sure the problem is on your end. If this is the case then no one can download the app. I considered that perhaps because it's still in Beta that it was removed due to some other type of software issue. I would really like to use Firefox on my new Droid (2.0); when with this be available?

    Firefox will not appear in the Market for most phones with incompatible hardware. You can check if your phone is supported here:
    https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms/Android
    Even on some supported devices, a bug in the Market software prevents Firefox from showing up. This may be related to the fairly recent Android Market app update. If you go to Settings/Applications/Market and choose "Uninstall" you can uninstall the update, and then search for and install Firefox from the marketplace.
    Or, if you have a supported phone, you can download the app directly by typing this address into your phone's browser: http://bit.ly/fxbeta3
    (Note: To download the app directly for an AT&T phone, you will have to search for instructions on "sideloading" the APK file, since AT&T disables the option to install from non-Market sources.)

  • Google advised me to change my password. Did this on iMac. all works on iMac. no mail on iPad or iPhone even though I've rescinded them both to the iMac.  Any ideas please?

    Google advised me to change my password, which I have done on my iMac.
    Mail is now accessible on iMac.
    However, can still not access mail on iPad or iPhone even though I've resynced them with iMac.
    Any ideas please?
    Thanks

    Syncing with the Mac isn't going to do anything unless you synced the mail settings, and I'm not sure that you can do that any more with iTunes.
    DId you try changing your password in the settings in the mail app? Settings>Mail, contacts, calendars>Your account name>Account>Account information. You also need to make sure that the password is set in the outgoing mail server settings.
    Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.

  • HT201274 I am unable to transfer my songs from my ipad to my iPhone even though they are both registered to the same apple Id

    I am unable to transfer my songs from my ipad to my iPhone even though they are both registered to the same apple Id

    How are you trying to accomplish this? You can't transfer media directly from one iDevice to another. You should be transferring your purchased items to your iTunes library on the computer you sync them with, then syncing them from there.
    You should be able to re-download media from the iTunes store using the same Apple ID used to purchase it to begin with.

  • Photos from Mac still appearing on iPhone, even though "sync photos from iPhoto" is unticked in iTunes?

    A colleague has all his Mac photos showing up on his iPhone, even though the "Sync with iPhoto" tickbox is unticked when he syncs it with iTunes. He has PhotoStream turned off. What else is possible to clear the photos off his iPhone please?

    Have him try putting the checkmark back in front of "Sync Photos From" on the Photos page of iTunes and change the selection of photos to be synced so that only one or two new photos is selected (and none of the existing ones) and then sync. If that removes the existing ones, then remove the checkmark and sync again.

  • ITunes says i have 15.4GB of photos on my iPhone even though my Photo Library is empty

    Exactly what the title says. iTunes says i have 15.4GB of photos on my iPhone even though my Photo Library only has a couple of photos in it that obviously don't take up that much space. I tried unselecting "Sync Photos from..." in iTunes and syncing my iPhone that way, but nothing happened. The two photos remained in the Photo Library, and iTunes continues to say i have 15.4GB of photos. What gives?

    You cannot.
    There a re not duplicates on your iphone.  Just as a song is in your music library and that exact same song can be accessed from a playlist, all photos synced to iphone are in the photo library and those exact same pics ( not duplicates) can be viewed from the folders/albums.
    This is how Apple handles photos.
