    Is this problem associated with the IOS version and device? I've been watching YT all of today with zero hitches until this error propped up. It happens on my ipad (IOS 12) but it's not a problem for my iphone (IOS 14).

    How likely has my phone been infected with malware?

    Posted: 11 Apr 2021 09:48 PM PDT

    Edit: I quotation searched the email and saw someone share in a different subreddit, that they had the same email body except the password and the # of "friends" were different. So I guess I just need to go thru and change all my passwords. Is there an easier way to change them and/or see which PW was breached? I have soo many passwords and idk the best course of action without doing individually so. I mean, I definitely will change all of them but I'm hoping there's some way to help take care of it faster and ease my nerves even just a tiny bit.

    I think I read somewhere that iPhones (and apple products in general??) are very difficult to infect with malware because of the security of iPhones or something like that.

    I got this email:

    "I am aware mCglCH is one of your pass. Lets get directly to the point. Not a single person has compensated me to check about you. You may not know me and you are most likely thinking why you are getting this email? Well, i actually placed a malware on the adult videos (pornography) web-site and there's more, you visited this web site to have fun (you know what i mean). When you were watching video clips, your web browser started out working as a Remote control Desktop with a key logger which provided me accessibility to your screen and also webcam. after that, my software collected every one of your contacts from your Messenger, Facebook, as well as e-mail. after that i created a video. 1st part displays the video you were viewing (you have a fine taste rofl), and second part shows the recording of your web cam, and it is u.

    You get two different options. Why dont we take a look at the options in details: 1st alternative is to ignore this e-mail. in such a case, i will send out your very own video clip to all your contacts and then consider concerning the humiliation you will see. and definitely if you are in a romantic relationship, just how it will certainly affect? Second option would be to compensate me $1723. Lets refer to it as a donation. Then, i most certainly will straightaway erase your video. You could keep daily life like this never happened and you would never hear back again from me. You will make the payment through Bitcoin (if you don't know this, search 'how to buy bitcoin' in Google search engine).

    Bitcoin address to send to: 18u6736Uk9nxpu5p4RPhUzfgeazu5Rh4ek [case sensitive copy and paste it]

    in case you are curious about going to the authorities, well, this email cannot be traced back to me. I have taken care of my actions. i am not trying to charge a fee very much, i would like to be compensated. in order to make the payment if i do not get the bitcoin, i will definately send your video to all of your contacts including relatives, coworkers, and so forth. Having said that, if i receive the payment, i will destroy the video immediately. If you want evidence, reply Yup! & i will send out your video recording to your 16 friends. it is a nonnegotiable offer, therefore don't waste my personal time & yours by responding to this email message."

    and beside the fact that I don't visit adult sites, where does "16 friends" come from? I searched the email it was sent from, I've searched the general idea of these messages to find out if it's a common scam or whatever, I don't have a webcam that I frequently use (my desktop has a camera slider, and I don't use my mac a whole ton), I read somewhere that it's unlikely real since they didn't actually say anything that would point directly to me, etc.

    Is it possible my phone actually is infected? Or is it something I can block and be okay? I have severe anxiety as it is (unimportant) but I feel like I can safely say this is a scam, but even then I'm really stressed about this.

    TIA

    My voice is not being registered correctly while in movement with speakers on

    Posted: 11 Apr 2021 09:47 PM PDT

    Does this happen to anyone else? I've noticed this with my X and just thought its broken or something, but the same happens with my brand new 12 mini.

    • So whenever i dont move, it works.
    • moving without speaker on, works.
    • speaker on with movement involved, my voice gets cut and does not got transfered

    So whenever i listen to my voice mail it sounds like i put my hands on the microphone or something, the sound disappears. its hard to describe because english is not my main language.

    Anyone had a similar problem? Is this common and im missing a setting or something?

    Any help appreciated

    Any ideas why my iPhone 10 can’t find Bluetooth headsets but can find speakers no problem?

    Posted: 11 Apr 2021 05:44 PM PDT

    Pretty frustrating that I've never been able to connect it to a pair of headphones(2 different kinds it can't find either one, not Apple products) but I've used over a dozen different speakers with no issues

    Can a screen protector ruin an iphone se 2020 screen

    Posted: 11 Apr 2021 03:50 PM PDT

    I bought some cheap screen protector for my iphone se 2020 but when I installed it there was a rainbow like line around the edges of the screen protector and I'm kinda worried that over time the screen protector will just ruin the actual iphone screen. Will the screen protector ruin the phone screen or are the rainbow lines normal.

    I was changing the battery of my iPhone 8 Plus to breathe new life into it. Unfortunately, during the process I knocked my phone over breaking one of the ribbon cables. Where can I source the part I broke? And how much would it cost to fix myself?

    Posted: 11 Apr 2021 03:01 PM PDT

    Apologies for the lengthy title.

    The other day I received in the mail a fresh battery for my iPhone 8 Plus and immediately got to installing it. I took it for granted that within an hour I'd have a new, fresh battery installed in my phone and wouldn't have to get another battery for at least two more years. Well, things didn't go as planned and while installing it I managed to knock my phone to the floor, damaging one of the ribbon cables in the process (and, from what I can tell, nothing else). Though it was my first time working on a phone, I have experience fixing computers, various types of electronics, mechanical devices and watched online iPhone battery installation tutorials beforehand so I felt confident I wouldn't screw up. My mistake was that I chose to work with very little desk space and way too close to the edge of the desk. I paid the price and learned from my mistake.

    Anyway, here's a photo of the cable that was damaged.

    A few questions:

    1. What part did I damage?
    2. Where can I source the part I damaged?
    3. How much am I looking at having to pay for the part I damaged?
    4. I ended up getting a new iPhone (XS) which will be arriving within two days, but I plan on fixing my broken iPhone 8 Plus to keep as a backup phone. Will I be able to restore the data I backed up to iCloud on my broken phone to my new iPhone XS? Or will I be unable to back up that data until the old phone is fixed? Surely I'll be able to restore it using simply my Apple account ID and password?

    Thanks! I look forward to reading your responses.

    Recovering old iMessage conversations

    Posted: 11 Apr 2021 10:24 AM PDT

    Hi guys I don't know if this is the right place for this inquiry but I didn't know where else to try.

    I'm trying to retrieve my entire iMessage thread between my best friend and I that spanned from around 2012 to 2016. She passed away suddenly in 2016 and I've had our conversations saved for these 5 years but cannot find them anywhere anymore. They were on my old iPhone 6, which I still have, and phone numbers and iCloud logins haven't changed since.

    It's coming up on her 5 year memorial date at the end of this month and I would do anything to see our interactions again. Is there anything I can do? Thank you for any advice <3

    Slow Internet on iPhone 7. Tested on different networks

    Posted: 11 Apr 2021 02:08 PM PDT

    So basically, I have a problem with the internet. Everything works fine for other people, but when I log into any of my wifi's, the internet is super slow and I can barely watch a youtube video with the lowest quality because it loads and stops every 5 seconds. I remember getting a network update notification but I kept ignoring it and now I feel that's why this happens. IMPORTANT: I've tried resetting the network settings and that didn't help at all.

    I hope someone will help me with this issue, thanks!

    Thinking of upgrading my SE1 to SE2, ordering direct from Apple Store UK. What do I need to do in order to use this straight out of the box?

    Posted: 11 Apr 2021 12:37 PM PDT

    This is a really basic question, but googling hasn't quite nailed down the answer for me.

    Background

    I have an iPhone SE1 (i.e. the 2016 edition), and I'm looking to replace this with the SW2 (i.e. the 2020 edition). Previously, I had an iPhone 4S, which I used with O2 pay-as-you-go. I bought the SE1 from a nearby O2 shop, and they got me all set up. But this time around, owing to the pandemic, I'd be happier ordering the SE2 from the Apple Store UK and having it delivered to my house.

    My question

    Will the SE2 come with a sim card, and if so how would I get it working so that I can keep my current phone number? Will ordering the SE2 from Apple Store UK involve giving them my existing phone number, and they'll send the sim card in a ready-to-go form? Would it be easier if I just remove the sim card from my SE1 and put it in the SE2? Would that even be possible?

    Any advice would be very much appreciated!

    iPhone 12 Pro scrolling a little sticky?

    Posted: 11 Apr 2021 12:10 PM PDT

    Hi fellow iPhone peeps, I recently upgraded from an iPhone 8+ to an iPhone 12 Pro. Strangely, I feel like the scrolling (up and down, side-to-side, in-app, in browsers, etc.) on my new iPhone is stickier and less smooth than it is for my iPhone 8+ and even for my iPad Pro. It's definitely noticeable and very annoying. I'm wondering if it's a hardware issue on my device, or it's to be expected from any iPhone 12 Pro unit. Is it a frame rate/OLED issue? A software issue that will be addressed in future iOS's? Does anyone else with an iPhone 12 Pro notice this? Any insight would be appreciated!

    Depending on replies here, I might ask Apple for a replacement and try it out.

    iPhone XR wont play music or videos

    Posted: 11 Apr 2021 08:54 AM PDT

    Hi, My iPhone freezes every second if I play music or videos. I've regularly restarted it. Restarted wifi, cellular data. I did a hard restart (press volume up, volume down, then hold the button on the right). I took out the SIM card and put it back. Nothing is fixing this issue.

    My service is fine. If I disconnect my headphones, there isn't even an option to play music. It removes the volume bar slider completely. When my headphones are in, if I tap play over and over I can hear music / video audio, but it pretty much pauses instantly. Without headphones, doesn't play at all.

    Internet works fine. I can browse Reddit no issues. I actually am able to watch videos with audio on Reddit. When I play music on Apple Music or videos on YouTube or streaming apps, it doesn't play. Even tiktok works fine with Audio and video having no issues.

    Anyone know what's wrong and a fix?

    Photo app issues and factory reset questions?

    Posted: 11 Apr 2021 06:55 AM PDT

    Hi!

    So recently I just factory reset my iPhone a couple times and changed a lot of settings for optimal battery, and now that I've downloaded back my apps there's an issue with the photo app. So for example the app Instagram when I took a selfie and pressed the save button so it saved into the photos app it would automatically create a new folder called "Instagram", but now it doesn't do that anymore for any apps.

    I'm really worried I've damaged my iPhone somehow by factory resetting it multiple times after already factory resetting it, if so have I permanently damaged my iPhone or is it even possible to damage iPhone through factory resetting?

    I'm also worried if it was one of the options I changed in the settings, if so which one could it be? Lastly I'm wondering if it was the new 14.4.2 update which did this could anybody confirm and try this themselves and see if I'm the only one or not?

    I hope all these answers could be answered any help is appreciated thank you! I'm really worried I damaged my iPhone also because it's pretty new :( (I've got an iPhone 11 if that info is necessary.)

    Music app help!!

    Posted: 11 Apr 2021 05:51 AM PDT

    Is there anyway I can add music into the music app without a PC or without subscribing/buying music? I used to put it into iTunes and then transfer that way but I no longer have a PC so that isn't an option. I am subscribed to Apple Music but as a mainly rap/hip-hop listener I am missing out on tons of music due to mixtapes that aren't available on Apple Music. I know there's other apps but I'd like to keep it all within the same app. Any tips?
