Virus on ipad and iphone when i was abroad how to delete it

while i was abroad i have picked up what i think is a virus on my ipad mini and iphone 5 also another person in my hotel had same problem . When we are usinf safari it send us to a link ultrafiles.net  ( linkbucks.com )everytime when try and open a new page how do i get rid of this ?

It's not a virus. As of this point in time, there is no known virus for the iPad. (a virus is defined as a malicious program that propogates itself across your operating system, the sandbox nature of the ipad prevents that)
Try going into your settings, safari, and clear the cookies and data and history. It will mean that you need to re-sign into sites, etc, but what I think you're getting hit by is a browser cookie that's basically hijacking the browser to send it to another site. Getting rid of the history and cookies should take care of it.

  • How do you not share contacts on your iPad and iPhone when sharing an apple ID, How do you not share contacts on your iPad and iPhone when sharing an apple ID

    How do you not share contacts when having an iPad and iPhone when you share an apple ID

    Presumably you mean you are sharing the same iCloud account? Except for turning off contacts on one of the devices, you can't stop sharing contacts. iCloud accounts are not designed to be shared among different people with different personal data.
    You should each gave your own personal iCloud account, setup under your own individual AppleID.
    You can still use the shared AppleID for the iTunes and AppStore purchases you already have though.

  • I downloaded movies onto my iPad to watch when I was abroad, I synchronised with my laptop and now they are not on my iPad how can I get them back?

    I downloaded movies onto my iPad to watch when I was abroad, I synchronised with my laptop and now they are not on my iPad how can I get them back?

    If the shows are in fact still on the pad, they will be found in the videos app, not the music or I tunes app.  Look there and see if they are still there.
    If you don't see them there, go to the searchlight screen ( farthest left home page) and type in the name of one of the shows.  If it is on the pad, hiding somewhere, this will find it.
    If they are not there, they should not be using up space.
    To get them back onto your pad, plug in and sync again.  Make sure you transfer purchases first.   Before you sync, take a look at the video tab in your I tunes, and check what you want and don't want synced.

  • Photos on iPad and iPhone as Events that i have already deleted in iPhoto and can't find out how to delete?!

    Photos on iPad and iPhone as Events that i have already deleted in iPhoto and can't find out how to delete?!

    I had an album on my iPad that didn't have a delete option. I was able to finally remove everything by connecting the iPad to iTunes and going to the Photos tab. Select sync photos. It will ask you if you want to replace all photo on iPad with sync photos. Apply the setting and then un-sync photo again. It will then remove all photos on iPad starting with a clean slate.
    Be sure to backup all your photos before doing this. Hope that helps.

  • IMovie for my iPad and iPhone will not export movies how do I fix this?

    iMovie for my iPad and iPhone will not export movies how do I fix this?

    Same here. Have exported a handful of movies before..faced this issue for the first time a few days ago. What footage are you trying to edit and export? (E.g. Shot with camera app, other social media apps like Snapchat, Vine, Instagram?)
    I did some troubleshooting..
    I was putting together all saved videos from Snapchat.. no luck. Export screen comes up, but progress bar doesn't move.
    Mixed some footage in there shot with actual iPhone camera app.. no luck.
    Removed all Snapchat footage.. it worked straight away.
    BUT ... it would make sense if I didn't just compile a bunch of Snapchat vids a few weeks ago and export them just fine?
    So it's something to do with the actual footage I assume?

  • My ical events showing up as "new events" on my ipad and iphone when synced with exchange?

    I am running exchange 2010 and have my macbook, iPad and iPhone syncing to exchange. I noticed that lately after my lion upgrade it is changing the ical meeting events that I create on my macbook show up on my iPad and iPhone as "new events". All of the information entered into the event is gone. This is really frustrating and is starting to become a problem. I need to find a solution soon. Has anyone else experienced this issue or resolved this issue?

    Maybe a fix in the works?

  • Do I need a 240 to 120v power converter for my iPad and iPhone when I am in Germany?

    On a Viking River Cruise boat do I need a 240v to 120v power converter for my iPad and iPhone chargers?

    All Apple chargers work from 100-240VAC, 50-60Hz power. All you will need is a plug adapter for the country you are in.
    BTW - You can use your iPad charger to charge your iPhone, and it will charge the iPhone faster.

  • Just set up Time Capsule and imac is backed up.  Can I back up ipad and iphone too?  If so, how do I do it?

    Just bought AirPort Time Capsule (2TB) and my imac 10.7.5 is backed up.
    Can I back up the information on my iphone and ipad - both are iOS 7.1.2?
    On AirPort Utility I am not able to open other Wi-Fi Devices.  TC indicates ipad and iphone are wireless clients.  
    Not sure what I do.  Thanks.

    iOS devices like the iPhone and iPad back up to iTunes on your computer....or....to iCloud, if you have enabled that option.
    If you have a Mac and have Time Machine backups enabled, then the iPhone and iPad backups stored in iTunes on the Mac are backed up to the Time Capsule.
    In other words, the iPhone and iPad back up indirectly to the Time Capsule, if you have Time Machine enabled. They do not back up directly to the Time Capsule.
    For more information on iOS backups, please see this Apple Support document:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    Or, you might want to post in the iPhone and iPad support communities.....where the iPhone and iPad experts hang out.

  • IPad and IPhone synced to different PCs how do I get the same music on both devices? I used one PC to put CDs on ITunes but these don't appear on the phone which syncs to the Mac.

    I have 1 ITunes account but my IPad is synced to a Windows PC to download CDs onto my IPad and the Iphone is synced to the Mac. I was hoping that the CDs I'd put on the IPad from the Windows PC would automatically appear on my IPhone when both these devices were sharing the same Wi-Fi at home. This didn't really work very well and I've been left with the CDs showing on the list on my phone but when I try to play them, the different tracks keep scrolling fast and not playing. I've tried deleting them from the IPhone, but they just seem to retreat to ICloud.
    I've tried syncing the phone to the windows PC but this has just resulted in an error and I think this may be what has screwed the music up on my phone. I would just like to be able to listen to my CDs on my phone.
    Has anyone come across this before and resolved it?
    Thanks

    Terminology check here. Do you really mean a "CD"?  There's a difference in Cloud behavior between content from a physical CD you ripped (which only has Cloud content if you have iTunes Match) and an "album" you bought from the iTunes Store.
    Read references for Home Sharing.
    iTunes: How to share music and video - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2688 - about Music Sharing and Home Sharing
    Home Sharing Support page - http://www.apple.com/support/homesharing/
    iOS: Setting up Home Sharing on your device - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4557 - "With Home Sharing in iOS 4.3 or later, you can stream your entire iTunes library over your home Wi-Fi network from your Mac or PC right to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch."
    The above can get pretty complicated.  You are probably best off by syncing both devices to a single library and/or updating the libraries on both computers to have the same content.

  • My music for my Music app is all messed up on iPad and iPhone when using shared option.

    The music from my mobile "Music" app is all out of whack! Albums and art are all out of order and art is wrong. It's only on mobile when I sync/share with main computer library. Albums are out of order with wrong album art work and on iPad they have wrong album names. Says album is say Beatles White Album, but songs are not from that album. They're from the artist I'm looking at. My iTunes on my Mac are fine, just my mobile devices when I do home sharing is COMPLETELY whacked out of order and mostly wrong art!

    I've had the same problem on my iPad4 and I seem to have fixed it for now by turning off "Group By Album Artist" in the settings of the Music app.
    Ridiculous bug though. In my case searching didn't work either and I didn't even see all the albums.

    Using iCoud i find my notes disappearing from both my iPhone and my iPad. What has gone wrong?

    Hi...
    On both your iPhone and iPad tap Settings > iCloud
    Switch Notes off then back on then restart the devices.
    Restart your device: Hold the power button until "slide to power off" appears.  Slide to power off.  After it is off, press the power button to turn it back on.
