What is the truth about flashlights on iPhones being hacked?

I recently saw a youtube posting:
Cybersecurity Expert Gary Miliefsky from snoop wall Information about a popular smartphone application that could expose your personal information to cyber criminals-
https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=Q8xz8xKEFvU#t=0
which states that flashlight apps are being used as spyware to steal personal information.
Is the flashlight that comes factory installed on my iPhone susceptible to such spyware?

TS1702 Hi, I bought The Truth About Love album on itunes as a complete my album from my Iphone4S. I can see the name of the album as a purchase on my Mac Notebook 2004, however I am not unable to add the music to my itouch and is doesn't show up in music

Hi,
I bought the Truth About Love/Pink's album on itunes as a complete my album purchase as I had bought a song from the album previously. I bought it via my Iphone 4S. When I turn on itunes on my Mac Notebook 2004 (IOS X 10.4.11) I can see the album as a purchase but it is not listed in my library music nor can I add it to my Itouch 2nd generation. Do you know why? I can access the songs on my iphone but nowhere else.

They will only be on your computer's iTunes if you put them there. If you are in a country where you can re-download music then they should show under the Purchased Link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes. If they don't show there then you can connect your phone to your computer's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy them over.

What is the best video converter for iPhone?

My last question was deleted I guess because I was not specific enough. I have a Sony DCR-DVD108 DVD Handycam® Camcorder which writes everything onto mini DVDs. I am looking for a good video converter to convert my home movies with. I am using Roxio Crunch, but it doesn't do as good of a job as I had hoped. What is the best video converter to use?
P.S. Please don't delete my question again Apple.

It was probably deleted because you said that it was in violation of the TOU, which I have read. I own all rights to DVDs which I myself have created, and I give myself permission to copy said DVDs for whatever reasons I wish. I am in no way violating the TOU: "Do not submit software or descriptions of processes that break or otherwise ‘work around’ digital rights management software or hardware. This includes conversations about ‘ripping’ DVDs or working around FairPlay software used on the iTunes Store" because I am in no way trying to "work around" any sort of DRM, and I created the home movies and in no way was the iTunes Store involved; that is unless somehow a movie of my nephew's birthday is now available on iTunes. And I don't own an iPod video, I own an iPhone, which is why the question says "What is the best video converter FOR IPHONE?" and is why I am in an iPhone forum.

WHat is the best way for other iphone users to share pictures with me? I am doing a project which req. people to send me 100 pictures at a time that I'll be putting in my iphoto?

WHat is the best way for other iphone users to share pictures with me? I am doing a project which req. people to send me 100 pictures at a time that I'll be putting in my iphoto? thank you.

ingridlisa,
I'd suggest to ask them to create Shared PhotoStreams and to invite you to view the streams, see:
iCloud: Using and troubleshooting Shared Photo Streams

Added:

Will you be collecting the photos in iPhoto on your iPhone or on a Mac? On a Mac a Shared PhotoStream requires Mac OS X 10.8.2.

What are the steps in formatting my iphone

"Formatting"? - it's not a hard disk, so formatting is not necessary.

What are the rules about switching versions?

I thought projects created in iMovie 9 showed up in iMovie 10, but I just tried creating a new project in iMovie 9 this morning and it is not showing up in iMovie 10, even though I see projects from 2013 and before in there.
Also, what are the rules about switching versions? I know iMovie 9 much better, so can I start a project there and finish it in iMovie 10? I would like to gradually learn iMovie 10, but not all at once.
I assume that once a project is edited in iMovie 10, it can't be worked on in iMovie 9 anymore.

You have to update iMovie 9 projects to iMovie 10 from within iMovie 10 before they will appear in iMovie 10 as iMovie 10 uses a completely different project/event file system. After updating you can still work on projects in iMovie 9 but you won't see any changes made in iMovie 10 and you can't transfer them back.
I would have a good look at the iMovie 10 help files first since a lot is changed and some features have been discontinued that might be important to you.
In order to try out iMovie 10 on just one of your iMovie 9 projects, put the folders just for that project in a separate iMovie Projects and iMovie Events folder and hide the project and event folders containing the projects you don't want to update from iMovie 10 by enclosing them in a higher level folder (only projects and events folders in the Movies folder of the boot drive or at the root level of another drive or partition will be visible to iMovie).
I did it this way and I'm glad I didn't try to update evrything at once!

What are the Application avaliable in Apple Iphone 4s? i wanna that application details?, what are the Application avaliable in Apple Iphone 4s? i wanna that application details?

I wanna know what are the defalut application will come iphone 4s.

So they doing the ye'old monkey in the middle routine, eh? Well I'm not a monkey and neither is anyone else(!)
AT&T is saying they aren't doing it, and that if my phone decides to crap out that I will have to see if Apple will replace my phone. But she said even though they have no involvement nor allowance with this carrier version update, that it is between apple and the federal agency requesting these updates, that she will document and send the complaint to the people at AT&T that are working on carriers updates with them.
I also stated to the rep, that there is some chatter stating the updates are being implemented by AT&T. The rep denied any such information.
I also asked the rep, if there has been any customer complaints or concerns brought to AT&Ts attention today in regards to Carrier Version Updates? The reps response was "no, this is a first"
What I am experiencing: LTE or WiFi: these OTA Forced updates are unexpected and with out advanced notice.
This is the second time I've witnessed this while the device is in use that this OTAFU comes through. There is a data cap on bandwidth, so I think the OTAFU is hogging bandwidth and other resources, which in turn is making any other apps in use choke for bandwidth and other resources while the update is taking place.
I still have the Government Alerts with the 14.2 CU.
I do believe this is IOL and Data Redundancy which is causing technical debt to grow exponentially out of control.
Amber Alerts are great, useful, and helpful - but there is an App for that, a text message, and an email alert system.
Emergency Alerts are great, and useful - BUT there are many apps and signals for that as well as being broadcasted on TV, Radio, FiOS, And Cable.
Simply all too much(!) When is enough enough?
What is the backup system to the government emergency alerts system, if we are unable to access any form of electronic communications?

Been stolen two what is the solution to restore my iPhone

Been stolen two what is the solution to restore my iPhone
I note in a joint program iCloud
plz help mee

Try posting in your native language. This doesn't make much sense.
If you have purchased a new phone, restore it from the last back up of your old phone.
If you're asking how to get it back, IF you activated the free Find my iPhone service on the old phone, you can sign in to icloud.com and track it if it has not been wiped or turned off. Other than that, all you can do is report it to the police and your carrier. Might also be a good idea to change all your passwords.

What's the different about sa38 with or without variant?

dear all,
What's the different about sa38 with or without variant?
I don't have the idea.
Best Regard!

Hi
Variants allow you to save sets of input values for programs that you often start with the same selections. You can use them for any programs except subroutine pools. Whenever you start a program in which selection screens are defined, the system displays a set of input fields for database-specific and program-specific selections. To select a certain set of data, you enter an appropriate range of values. You can also use variants to change the appearance of the selection screen by hiding selection criteria. This is particularly useful when you are working with large selection screens on which not all of the fields are relevant.
So basically variants are use to ease your work directly or indirectly. Otherwise every time you need to give input to those values. To avoid doing the same steps again and again for selection screens you can create variants.
Hope this helps!!
Thanks and Regards

What is the best bluetooth headset for iPhone 5?

What is the best Bluetooth headset for iPhone 5 for talking no music?

I've tried all the majors: Bose (1 model twice), Motorola (2 models), Jawbone (5 models) in almost every model.
Bose is good but such an odd nub just sitting there on your ear - bad athestics. Device is fine but not right for me.
Motorola seem to have troublie with iPhone specifically.   They don't stay paired and noise-cancelling has been bad. I tried 3 pairs of the Elite Silver with no luck. Great concept to have a case that charges the device but bad device. Same issue with the Oasis.
Jawbones are good and I've had 5 of them.   They seem to degrade in voice cancelling quality over time based on feedback of people I talk to but they are solid.   I'm sure I just beat them up but they do seem to go bad.
My best experience have been BLUEANT, both the Q2 (bought 2) and teh Q3 (own 1).   Q2 are solid but they have this issue with a metal screen that inevitable breaks off, not affecting call quality but a pain.   Q3 have fixed that but they are just a bit bulkier.   Good features (voice answer & address book) and solid. These are just awesome and good instant on that simply isn't true of all of the devices. Only downside has been no battery meter on the Q2 for the iphone but a solid workhorse.
I just got a new Motorola Whisper and so far I'm impressed.   First motorola that has solid noise reduction and doesn't seem to have the random unpairing issue with the iphone.   It's early yet but great design and comes with a case.
I hope this helps.

What is the best external battery for iphone 4s

what is the best external battery for iphone 4s

I bought the Mophie juice pack™ powerstation from the Apple store for $80. It has more then enough power to quickly boost the charge on my iPhone4S to an acceptable level. It requires the standard 30pin/USB Apple cord to plug into it.
But unless you need to charge your phone from 5-100%, this battery is overkill. It's a real hassle having the Apple cord connected to your phone whilst there's a battery in your pocket and you end up looking quite strange with your "corded" smartphone.
I might recommend a battery case (Mophie has these), but they don't offer the protection that I need (I use a LifeProof case). Instead I would buy a smaller Mophie juice pack™ reserve (keychain, direct plug) to get out of a bind and then charge up your iPhone in the car, wall, airplane, etc.
My only concern with the above (direct plug batteries) is that the slightest bump and the battery becomes a lever that could break the 30 pin plug on your phone, just like that warily flimsy feeling when you put an iPhone in a dock.
Hope that helps, at least in the Mophie department!

What is the best anti virus for iphone 5?

what is the best anti virus for iphone 5?

I concur with Tonefox; worthless. To preserve battery the best thing you can do is shut down apps that constantly run in the background and fetch data from servers elsewhere; the Facebook app being a prime example. Apple has more tips here:
http://www.apple.com/batteries/iphone.html
As to clearing memory, there's almost never a need, and if there is a simple restart of the iPhone will suffice.

What's the wave's number of iPhone 4S speakers? I need to know what's the number because my phone doesn't play any sounds, and I kind of knew what's the problem and sulotion!

What's the wave's number of iPhone 4S speakers? I need to know what's the number because my phone doesn't play any sounds, and I kind of knew what's the problem and solution!
What I mean by wave is like radio channels' waves! Ex. 104.1

Your statement makes no sense.
Have you tried basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide to rule out some setting in the device preventing the speaker from working?
Is the mute switch on?
Do other sounds work?
Does it produce sound with headphones plugged in?
