  1. Apple called to say I had severe security issues and not to use my iPad until I called them.


    There have been attempts made by internet hijackers to get into my computer. Yesterday Apple called to say they needed to fix security issues. The technician ran a scan that showed all my IP Addresses and said someone from Nigeria hijacked my computer to get my credit card information on Amazon. He wanted my whole credit card number, but I hung up. What can he do with my IP addresses?

    :)

  2. Apple iPad driver error

    iPads are Apple Products.

    iTunes is an Apple Product too.

    I suggest that you contact Apple Support:

    Import photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch ...

    Apple Support: Learn how to transfer photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or PC. We'll also show you how to make your photos available on all your devices with iCloud Photo Library.

    Cheers.

  3. Receiving VOIPcalls and Apple INC. calls.

    I've been getting these calls on my house phone that says it's from a VOIP caller with a phone number. I don't answer it as I have no idea what it is. Could someone please tell me what is a VOIP caller??? Also been getting calls from APPLE INC. stating
    that I have a security issue with my apple account ( I don't have a apple account.) and I should speak to one of their tech people. I also don't answer that as I think it is a scam of some sort. I have my answering machine on 24/7 and I don't answer unless
    I know who is calling. Is anyone else getting these calls?

    Severe Call dropping issue

    Hi,

    My lumia 535 dual sim faces severe network problems. Either call drops when I dial some numbers or during conversation itself call gets dropped..

    I changed sim with other service providers. But it created tower problems.

    Kindly suggest a solution
