IPhone :: Apple Id Is Already In Use Even Though I Never Made One Before?
Jun 14, 2012
So I just got an iPhone yesterday , to make an apple ID I used my email address.It told me the email is already in use , even though I never made an apple ID before but anyway it told me to change the password for it ,So I went and did that but it seemed like somebody else had been already using my email address as their apple ID because when I went into manage account , firstly the name was totally different , the address was Canada's and a phone number was there too and security questions were asked in French.Now that sort of freaked me out, has someone hacked my email address or what ? And why would they use my email address as their apple ID why couldn't they use their own ? Btw I didn't change any information on the account yet just Incase I had to report it to apple ( and I'm still not able to use it as my apple ID)
My iphone4 has recently made a call by itself! I have a 4 digit passcode lock, not sure if it has happened before but will be checking my 'recents' list in future.
The call was made to someone in my contacts and lasted for nearly 7 mins......I have also experienced the disappearing songs problem and had to reload part of an album from my itunes library on pc.
I have an IMAC, 2008 intel model. It accepts all DVDs I have but will not load some DVD's I just had made from VHS tapes. The company says that their MACs load the discs ok and they local apple store loads them ok. They also load on my windows XP machine ok. But on my IMAC they go in the slot grind a little and then are ejected again. Anybody got a solution to this?
if somebody makes an appointment, invites me, I accept. It is in my calendar. Then I change my mind and want to edit or delete this event. I dont get that option, how do I do this?
My phone was slowing down, so i restored it and chose the wrong backup (i did not see the backup that was made today). I option+clicked the restore button to point it to the backup that was made today, but when i go to the "/Users/username/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/backup" folder there are no clickable files to select. Am I looking in the right place? How do I restore from that most recent backup? I would like to do it without having to completely restore my phone again.
I have got the iphone 5 - 7.1.2 software update and I managed to go as far as making a custom made ringtone that shows in itunes as an m4r.
When I try to sync my phone it doesn't pick up the ringtones tho. I tried unchecking and syncing and then checking and syncing again but its not working.
I also can not choose to manually sync my phone. Whenever I click the button for it it disappears.
I just upgraded to a Iphone 5 c and bought new ringtones. Did the update 8.1.1 and all purchased ringtones disappeared. After talking to Apple about the problem, I was told they would not credit my account because they are aware of this problem.
Info: iPhone 5c, iOS 8.1.1, My iTunes purchased ring tones gone
Ashikase has a new app in Cydia called Last App. It keeps track of your most recent app and allows you to switch quickly between it and the foreground app. Optionally it will background the current app when switching. It's perfect for playing a game while chatting with friends on Beejive or for quickly checking that tutorial without losing your place in Settings.Activation is through libactivator, so there are plenty of ways to invoke it. I've got mine to switch on swipe-in from bottom-right.Ashikase has also made Kirikae libactivator compatible, so it can be similarly activated. I've now got Kirikae set to invoke on swipe-in from bottom-left.Much faster than holding home.
When a contact on my iphone 4 is updated it puts at the top of my contact list. Also all music is in the 123 category. You can see in the pictures what problem I am having. How do I fix this?
My iPhone 4S has been damaged on the lateral metal bezel (made of aluminum): can I send my iPhone to apple for repair assistance? Because if I send my phone to a shop, I'll lose the warranty.
I had the same Notes on both my iPad and my iPhone. Some made on the iPad and some made on the iPhone. Now adter syncing in iTunes I seem to have lost all my iPad made notes on my iPhone. I still have both sets of Notes on my iPad.Also I added my MobileMe email address to the list of my email addresses I have in Mail on my iMac. My MobileMe emails were then sent to my iMac including all my notes backup both from my iPad and iPhone.So my Notes are not deleted or lost, just none of my iPad notes are now on my iPhone.Read the support BB's are now VERY confused what to do to restore my iPad Notes on my iPhone.On iPhone, I only seem to have: All Notes / On My iPhone / my MobileMe email address While on my iPad, I have: All Notes / From my Mac / my MobileMe email address My iPhone is 3GS. My iPad is a 2, both running the very latest iOS. Sync almost daily, never had this problem Think it occured when I added MobilMe to Mail on my iMac, but don't know for sure!
When I sync iPhone calendars (Outlook) using iTunes none of the appointments made on the phone transfer to laptop. Appts made on laptop do transfer to iPhone. How can I fix this so both update?
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?
