IPhone :: Apple ID Keeps 'resetting For Security Reasons'
Jul 1, 2012
Every time I try to get an app from the Itunes store and I put in my password for Apple ID I get a message saying that my Apple ID password has been reset for security reasons. I have changed it multiple times and keep having the same problem the next time I sign in. My password seems to work on the computer but not with my iphone.
My apple id was disabled for security reasons, I changed my password and everything is fine now. Except my iphone and Ipad still say my ID is disabled. However, I am able to login to icloud and all my mac stuff
I live in Mexico City and we get our iphones robbed a lot, my suggestion is that the password could also block turning off the phone so we can use "find my iphone". It would certainly increase the security for us.
Every time I try to upgrade existing applications (such as BBM / Facebook) I get the following error message: "Your BlackBerry ID will be locked for 0 minutes for security reasons. You will not be able to login or request your password until that time has expired."I am not sure how did my BB ID get blocked and furthermore how to get in unblocked. Need urgent help on this issue.
While attempting to download updates after entering my user name and password I get this message. "Your BlackBerry ID will blocked for 0 minutes for security reasons. You will not be able to login or request your password until that time has expired." The time never expires which leaves me not being able to download anything. I have tried changing my password which doesn't solve the problem.
I bought a used Lumia 1520 from Amazon a few days ago...been using WP8.1, no problems, so I went ahead and installed the latest Windows 10 Mobile preview last night.
Everything worked fine for about 6 hours, and then the phone started going into endless rebooting loops. About 3 hours ago, it finally booted up, and there was a message on the screen that said "This phone has been locked for security reasons. Please connect to a power source for 2 hours and try restarting".
So I've had it plugged in for the last 3 hours, and now it refuses to boot up at all. When I do the soft reset button combo, the phone vibrates like it's restarting, but then...nothing.
So, I guess I've got two questions:
1. Did Windows 10 Mobile brick my phone, or is it more likely that there was something wrong with the phone from the get go? 2. What additional things I might try for recovery? I have downloaded the Windows Phone Recovery Tool, but without the device powering on, it's basically bupkis.
I have this phone and it's a good phone, but the WiFi is not working. I go to WLAN Wizard > Options > Refresh > Selecting a WiFi connection and when I type something or go to web feeds, bookmarks this error I get:"Web: Unable to execute the file for security reasons".
I did forget my security questions .i did reset and they sent on my email .but i forget my email security questions and password .how can i reset my email which you sent security question on it ?
I think that apple should have a securitypassword when changing options on the icloud. Because if i were to steal and iphone all i have to do is go to the settings, go to icloud, and a simple swipe of the find my iphone and there is nothing they can do about it. I am posting this because i was worrying about my phone being stolen and i thought "oh well" i have the find my iphone turned on, and then it hit me, "how hard is it to turn that off" and answer is, no difficulty at all and i think apple should do something to fix that.
My Apple ID was disabled for more than 1 month and changing pw just not helping. It is very confusing to contact any of the supporting stuff. Can anyone just tell me how to fix activate my apple ID again? x 10000000 I think it may be related my credit card as I cancelled my old credit card due to security reason, but I did enter the new card's info for the same account.
when i tryed to change security questions it says :The Authentication Information provided does not match our records. Please verify your personal information and try again. how can i change it when i cant remember my ol answers but remember password ?
When trying to download any app I am asked for my apple id password and then its asking me for 3 questions with the answers. Is this genuine from apple?
I keep having the pop up message for security info everytime I try to dwnload apps, and when I answers all 3 questions nothing response and I tried so many times already?
The more I think about it, the 3GS may serve me just fine. Yes, the screen is better, but at least I am given the comfort of how fluid the OS flows on screen on the 3GS, compared to other devices on the market. The 3GS isn't even that bad of a device compared to a lot of Android/smartphones out there.
HD video and camera? I could care less about since I really don't take much photos with a phone camera. If I do, it will be a quick photo, which doesn't need the huge megapixel count anyway (megapixel does not equal quality). Much of my pictures and night pictures come from my Nikon, which then is edited to fit the iPhone screen. However, the iPhone 4 design aspect is really nice, but that's just for eye candy
FaceTime? I barely even video chat with anyone on my MacBook to begin with and I do not know much people that can FaceTime with me since they won't be getting an iPhone 4, my friends usually carry Sprint phones or BlackBerry. Gyro? The food? Just kidding. Well, I do play games on my iPhone, but not enough to warrant the new accelerometer use.
Dual mics. That's a biggie for me, but I'm young and texting is the way many, if not all, of my friends communicate, except for my lady contact. New glass? Cool, dropped my 3GS a few times, no scratches. New glass seems like a great design and I am sure it will get better in iPhone 5
Battery? This is a big one for me. Even though my 3GS works perfectly fine throughout my daily usage (usually down to 40% at the end of my day 9AM-9PM), the iPhone 4's better battery looks great, but the difference comparison on Apple is somewhat minimal. At least I still get 4.0 on the 3GS along with the excellent multitasking usage and the folders. I am grateful for that.
This wasn't meant to be a rant, just my opinions on why the 3GS may still be good for me to skip this year's model. But, you best believe that I will be first in line for iPhone 5 or whatever they call it because my full upgrade will be ready by then. Given this year's specs, I will expect much better features next year along with a new OS.
I visited the USA and bought an Apple iPhone 4 5.1.1, the latest model. I would like to unlock it and use in my country. How can I get it unlocked so the I can use my local micro sim card? What info about it do you need to assist me in unlocking it?
Info: MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.4), iPhone 4 5.1.1
I have a micro sd 8 GB memory card. It came along with my nokia 5730. I never changed this card since last 3 years but when I inserted it in my BB phone, it didn't recognised and I indicated i.e. Cannot access the memory card for fatal reasons. I want to know if I can use this card with my blackberry or I'd have to buy some other? Or is there any special type of memory card for blackberry?
The story so far: I bought an accessory in Nov 2011 at an Apple Retail Store. (Philips dual-dock speaker) It started malfunctioning in Mar 2012. (Dock not charging anymore) I brought it to an Apple Store (closer to my place), they were happy to replace it on the spot, except that there was none in stock. So I was advised to go to an other Store (the original one), where they had stock. So far, so good for service. I went to the other store, but there I was told that they could not replace it because I had bought it more than 14 days before, so I had to contact the manufacturer directly! So my questions are:
- What is, if any, the actual policy on non-Apple product repair & replacement?
- Why don't all store follow the same policy?
- Should I just try my luck again with another person, until I strike gold and get it replaced?
I made a purchase for a black bumper and paid $31.60 but when I go to the Apple.com website to check the status of my refund its shows "There is no record of a refund for the receipt number you entered." I tried entering my receipt number plus last 4 of card and I also tried just entering the full CC number as well and get that response for both.
Just wanting to know if anyone has possibly experienced before, wanted to to see if any Macforum members have had this issue and what was the resolution to your issue? Should I just call Apple? Are they giving refunds in store if you take in your receipt?
