You Could Save My Family From Possible Identity Theft

Dear clever ones,
I gave my son £20 a month.  When he wants an app, he gives me cash. He hasa been addicted to the game FIFA14.  I didn't know there were in-app purchases and I was abroad.  Within 10 days, my bill mounted up to £3000.  Because he is a minor, and I share responsibilities.  I withdrew my original request for investigations of fraud to keep my son's name clean.  But I just don't believe he could have spent that much after school hours within a day.  i am not writing to complain but I need help for the following questions.
1. My PC has a GUEST user account, how can I delete it?  it only show the choice to turn it on or off.  I couldn't find a way to rid of it.
2. I have so many unrecognised files, like this one
the gmail account is the one I lose control all the time.  I am a middle aged mum with early onset parkinsons.  No meetings or school.
3. I use my outlook email for apple ID.  Today i tried to change my password again or even close the account.  Then I found NO ORDERS IN THE LAST 90 DAYS.  No invoice.  no nothing.  And apple showed the products I use, I don't recognize iphone 4S DN*****TDM and ipod touch 1H*****201.  The funniest thing is the account name is me alright, but except for the home telephone number, no billing address only two words UNITED STATES.
I am about to give up but I just felt uncomfortable to think someone else may be the next victum.  Can you enlighten me?

Sad answers to your great questions:
1. No fix
2. Assume that all pictures you take on your phone (and screenshots, and wallpaper downloaded, etc.) are going into your Photostream if you have it turned on and are connecting to Wifi regularly.
Yes, this is totally lame on Apple's part. I encourage you to leave feedback for them on the feedback pages for icloud, IOS, and/or iPhone.

  • I was told you you could view your app from your Iphone on the TV using Apple TV, such as the AFL football one i have purchased through the App store.

    I was told you could view your app from your Iphone on the TV using Apple TV, such as the AFL football one i have puchased through the App store. Is this true?

    Hi - you can do what you want to do with AirPlay from your iPhone - but unfortunately it is not as easy as the people in the Apple store told you - your first problem is that you have a non Apple router - you cannot extend a non Apple router wirelessly with the Express - you can only join the network and connect an ethernet device to it - you can however connect via ethernet and have it create a wireless network of its' own - you can set this up from your iPhone or the XP - but this is a complicated setup and would involve many different discussion areas of this forum - therefore I would suggest that you use your 90 days of support and consult directly with Apple to do this - go to this link - http://www.apple.com/support/contact/

  • With Internet Explorer you could save a Tab Group to Favourites; you could then reopen that entire group of tabs again a month or two later. How do I do this quickly with Firefox

    Recently installed Firefox 10.0.2

    Some menu entries in the main menu bar are hidden if you use the mouse and only appear if you use the keyboard to open the menu (Bug 626825).
    You can see the difference if you use Alt+F to open the File menu or other menus like the Edit menu (Alt+E) and Bookmarks menu (Alt+B) and compare that to what you see if you use the mouse to open the menu after you have made the menu bar visible by tapping Alt or by pressing F10.
    * "Bookmark All Tabs" (Shift+Ctrl+D) no longer shows in the Bookmarks menu unless you open the Bookmarks menu via the keyboard (Alt + B).
    * "Bookmark All Tabs" can be accessed via the right-click context menu of a tab on the tab bar.

  • Possible Identity Theft Victim?

    I'm signed up with Life Lock & Credit Sesame both paid premium services. Now Credit Sesame offers SSN Monitoring and 2 names are showing up via SSN tracing, I don't know who these two people are? Now I've checked my credit reports and only the cards I've applied for show up, which is good news because nobody has opened CCs at least that's what I know. Now I'm having trouble getting new CCs because when my SSN is run these two other names show up and I have to go through a series of verifications with Creditors in order to prove I'm the righteous owner of my SSN. Help? Should I contact Experian, Equifax, Transition about this? or SSN Dept.? Employment fraud maybe? I've checked my SSN Wage Statement and so far only the income I've work for has been reported so no sign of income which would raise a red flag? What gives?

    Hi, Happyville, and welcome to the Community,
    You are right to be suspicious.  I recommend two courses of action:
    File a report with your local law enforcement agency.  The police have instruction on how to contact Skype via official channels.
    Send a report to Skype via e-mail; [email protected]
    I would also diligently monitor on-line accounts as well as your personal details for the next several months, including obtaining copies of credit creports.  You may want to consider placing a "fraud alert" on your accounts.
    Regards,
    Elaine

  • Export to tif from Lightroom vs save as tif from Photoshop

    Photoshop 10.0.1, Lightroom 2.0, Windows XP
    Client wants tif format file. Exporting 34.9 Mb dng file from Lightroom generated 71.6 Mb tif file. File save from Photoshop generated 35.8 Mb tif file. Both saves without compression. Is there less information in the Photoshop generated file? Is one procedure better than the other? Thanks.

    You cannot save DNG files from photoshop. This is because DNG lacks the support for the features you need.

  • Why would you need to connect an AirPort Express to a printer to print wirelessly when you could just use AirPrint?

    What is the point of connecting an AirPort Express to a printer when you could just use AirPrint from an iPhone?

    All you guys are mistaking the Airprint system. Wireless printing is a Misnomer. Nothing prints wirelessly. Both the printer and the computer, or i or android device have to be all connected to the same LAN. They can be connected by a wire or a WiFi signal but they all must be on the same LAN.
    Airprint is a Driverless printing system where No Specific Printer drivers have to be installed on the computer or other device. Even with the Airprint system both the printer and the device you are printing from have to be on the same LAN.

  • Mountain Lion won't allow me to save photos from Mail directly to iPhoto (as you could in all other recent OSX).  Tried opening iPhoto and then click/drag each photo onto iPhoto icon on dock (as Help instructed) but the photo will not drag.  Suggestions?

    I have real a lot of posts that say to click Command+Option while opening iPhoto and this will open the Photo Library Repair window, but... this is not happening.
    Be sure you're holding the correct keys and that you're holding them long enough. Depress them before clicking on iPhoto and don't let go until the menu shows up.
    If you don't want to lose those photos, make a back up now. Hopefully it's not too late.

    The Glu Customer Care answer my question;
    Hello, and thank you for contacting Glu Mobile Customer Care
    The game you mentioned does not save online. If you have made a backup using "iCloud" or "iTunes backup" then you may be able to restore to that last save point on your device which will include whatever you had for currency at the time when the save was created.
    Unfortunately, we do not have a way to restore game progress, this is done by the user on the device itself using the backup and restore method for the entire device.
    If you have not performed a backup save for your device before this problem happened and you have lost currency from purchases, please contact the iTunes store customer service to inquire about your purchase and request help regarding this loss of currency issue.. Apple does not allow developers to handle billing issues.
    If you get an answer saying that In-App purchases are the responsibility of the developer, please insist that they assist you as we have no way of accessing their purchase records. We are the developer and do not have access to any account or billing information on the iTunes App Store.
    We hope this information assists you and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.
    Regards,
    Glu Mobile Customer Care

    We are fellow users here on these forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support. You say that you used the pack that you bought and that it then ran out - does that mean that you used it all up ? If you didn't use it all up but your game lost the purchase then you can try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • Is it possible to save / extract data from a MS SQL database 2008 using lookout 6.2?

    Is it possible to save / extract data from a MS SQL database 2008 using lookout 6.2?
      Now a days we are saving / extracting data in a excel spreadsheet, but we would like to do that using a database because it is better.

    You can use ODBC connection to work with SQL Server database.
    Use SQLExec object to execute the SQL statement. Here is a KB about the SQL statement.
    http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/4ADEEA04CD24AE0B862565E20002A16F?OpenDocument
    To write data to spreadsheet is more straightforward because Lookout has built-in spreadsheet object. But you need to write SQL statement by yourself to interact with other database.
    To read the data back is the same way. Just use "select" SQL statement to query. You can use Datatable object to query.
    The "Data Source" can be "DSN = data source name;". The data source name is configured in Control Panel->Administrative Tools->Data Sources(ODBC).

    When exporting to a DVD from Final Cut Pro X, what settings are there to make sure you making the highest quality DVD possible?

    There have been a lot of recent reports of difficulties sharing to DVD, but haven't been hearing about unreadable disks. Posibly there was an encoding error. Or it could have been bad media (blank disk).
    Does it play in your Mac?
    What brand of disks are you using?

    I was trying to upload from my iPad to my pc.
    That was hard for us to guess, from your post It might have helped to mention the iPad.
    How are you trying to save the song to your PC? Are you sending the song to iTunes? If yes, as a project or as an audio file? Make sure, you select "AAC" and not "GarageBand", when you share the song from your iPad.
    If the clip is not too large, you might alternately try to share it by mail, see:

  • Hi.. I'm new to mac, I've got a mac book air and time capsule is it possible to save music,video from iTunes Store directly to time capsule leaving my 128GB Mac free? If so  please help..

    You can move your iTunes library.. Apple have explicit instructions to do it. If the library is moved to the TC and accessed over wireless, the efficiency of the whole system will drop dramatically..
    A file you download goes.. Modem---TC--Laptop--Back to TC--Store on disk. Double looping the wireless slows it dramatically..
    As far as using TC for your iTunes.. you CAN.. but SHOULD YOU?
    Store files on the TC.
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/24380694#24380694
    This is asked several times a day.. obviously people are struggling with their latest SSD being too small.
    The TC is not suitable for network file server.. but many people having no choice press it into service as such.
    It cannot be partitioned. It was and is and ever shall be a backup device for Time Machine.
    Major issues.
    1. No backup.. no way Time Machine can backup a network drive. No place to backup to.. So all your files will be at risk. And you will need to buy a third party like CCC to do backup.
    2. The TC cannot be partitioned and mixing TM backups and data is not great.
    3. The drive is slow to spin up and quick to spin down.. there is no controls.
    4. iPhoto in particular can easily corrupt its entire library with wireless networking causing a disconnection to one photo. Even if you do this;;; do not move your photo library... you have been warned!!
    5. iTunes will constantly lose connection to the library. The disk is too slow to respond.. itunes on the computer will constantly spit out errors. Even in the midst of streaming the TC can spin down the disk due to caching.
    6. Do not use any live files on the TC no matter what else you do.. if you edit files in whatever program the file must be on the local hard disk.
    7. The only suitable location for most libraries is a computer. You can plug in an external hard disk.

  • HT201250 if I used external hard disk for backup time machine, is it possible to use that external hard disk to save another else from diffrent computers?

    If I used external hard disk for back up time machine, is it possible to use that external hard disk to save another else from diffrent computers?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You can do this, but you should make a new volume on your external disk. Time Machine needs a volume that is only used to store backups, so you can't store other data in the same volume as the one you are using for making backups.
    If you want to create another volume on your external disk, use Disk Utility to do this > http://pondini.org/OSX/DU3.html Anyway, you should get another external disk to store other files, but if you don't want to, you can create another volume in it

  • Help! Need to prove I DIDN'T delete photo(s) from iPhone, could save me from jail. How can I do this? Thanks for any help, I'm innocent and need to show this.

    This could save me from jail.  I need to prove that I DIDNT delete one or more photos from my iphone.  Is there a hidden numbering system that will show if some are missing?  Here's what happened:
    I went from point A to point B, and I took photos at both places. I was arrested for allegedly taking a detour in between A and B to take one or more photos on my iPhone, which I did NOT. The sequence of photos on my iPhone shows this (photos from A and then B with nothing in between), but my false accuser will just claim I deleted the ones in between (to have me imprisoned falsely. long story).
    I am innocent and I'm hoping my iPhone can prove that.  Any help is MUCH appreciated.
    Oh, and I haven't synced the phone since this happened, if that's an issue.

    A managed library is the default type that iPhoto creates.  Make sure you have the option selected to copy photos into iPhoto when importing:
    was hoping it would at least keep thumbnails of all my photo's.
    I use a DAM (digital asset management) program which will do exactly what you want: Media Pro 1.  It creates catalogs (libraries) of thumbnails, up to 640 x 480, that is uses to manage the photos.  You can do anything to the photos except edit, slideshows, or anything that requires the full source image when the source files are not available.  You can arrange  photos in Catalog Sets (like iPhoto albums), add keywords, etc. to them even when the sorce files are not available.  When the source files are available you can write that metadata to the source file and rename files. You can use Media Pro in demo mode for about a month I believe. 
    A catalog file for 44,000 photos (178 GB) with the thumbnails set for 320 pixels at high resolution is only 1.5 GB. The larger the thumbnail selected the larger the catalog file will be.
