Every day someone is trying to connect my Iphone6. Do I have to change my password every time? How can I stop this?
Your post says that someone is trying to connect 'on' your iPhone 6 - have - they possession of the phone or they try to connect your Apple from another device ID?
Note also that there are a number of phishing scams that send e-mails that appear to come from Apple, but are not current. Do not use any links in these emails if you are not.
If they are trying only to log in instead of sign in successfully it would be not necessary to change your password. However, you can consider on for Apple ID - Apple Support two-factor authentication or frequently asked questions about check in two steps for Apple ID - Apple Support (if available) for more security.
If they are correctly connected, see: If you think that your ID Apple has been compromised - Apple supports

I suggest that you configure the computer in a clean boot state and check if it helps.
To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows XP by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.
See section to learn more about how to clean boot.

Connect the iPhone to MacBook and Apple Watch at the same time?
Hello world
Is it possible to simultaneously connect the iPhone to the Apple Watch and MacBook via Bluetooth?
Would be wise to have this feature to enjoy the continuity between all 3 devices (and taking calls, etc.).
I tried to do this, but my iPhone and my MacBook do not connect to each other.
Thanks in advance.
My iPhone connects to my watch , 2 Mac, iPad 2 and 2 iPhones using the parameters of continuity. I can take and make calls on 7 devices when connected to the same WiFi network. For Macs, it must be new enough to support BlueTooth 4.

I bought the protection system. yesterday I wasphoned once again, informing me that my microsoft license had expired and I was required to pay for it be extended. I felt that it was a scam and refused to go forward.
Hello alexanderdiack,
Product license remains for always with the product. It can be cancelled by Microsoft, but it is very likely. If your product (used for activation) key was having problems then you would get a message on the screen of your PC to the effect that necessary to reactivate Windows.
Unless you have a support plan prepaid or you raise a support ticket Microsoft will ever contact you. Obviously, you should contact your company credit card and to tell them what happened. They may be able to stop the payment to this company.
A give them remote access to your computer? If Yes, then your system has been compromised and I would say that your reinstall Windows from scratch.
If you don't give them remote access, then, Yes, by all means, as a measure of protection, change all your passwords. It would be wise to change banking passwords online too.

Bluetooth connection between iPhone 6 and MacBook Pro (mid-2014)
I'm trying to connect my iPhone to my MacBook Pro 6 so that I can use the universal Clipboard function in the Sierra. Both devices are updated, software-wise, and both devices meet the requirements of continuity system.
When the settings bluetooth for the MacBook, I see my iPhone listed as a discoverable device. When I click on the "even" button, the numeric code appears, followed by the notification on my iPhone to confirm the code. As soon as I confirm it, the screen bluetooth on my MacBook poster that my phone is connected for a few seconds then disconnects. After that, my phone will say that the device, that I am trying to connect is out of reach, even if both devices are currently sitting side by side on my coffee table.
It could very well be a simple solution to what I forget quite simply, if I appreciate any help that can be provided.
Hi olly739,
I understand that you do not want to use the universal Clipboard with your iPhone and your Mac. If both of your devices meets the hardware requirements so the following configuration requirements, you are ready to use the universal Clipboard (no necessary Bluetooth pairing).
- Each device is connected to iCloud with the same Apple ID.
- Each device has two turned on Bluetooth.
- Each device has Wi - Fi enabled.
Steps to follow for the universal use of Clipboard:
- On a single device, copy the text, image or video as you normally would. This content is added automatically to the Clipboard of your other device nearby. She stayed briefly, or until replace you it by copying something on each device.
- On the other device, paste the content as you normally would.
Sincerely.

I tried to charge my iphone 4s, but has not loaded
Hello! A few days ago, I tried to charge my iphone 4s, but not loaded, it helps has completely downloaded, and now I no longer use I already changed the plug and the cable USB but nothing. What could I do? Thank you and I await answers
< re-titled by host >
It could be the port on the phone itself which is damaged or dirty, you can try to clean if there is visible debris, the best option would be to send it to Apple for review as self-cleaning can cause further damage.
