iOS malware? -Safari diverted

iPad WiFi, Air, iOS 8.4.1. Safari froze just, with this message in the middle of the page:

Surrounded by a gray shading (as shown), which covers the entire screen. There are five tabs open in Safari; This message took of one of them, kazeo.com of a page replacement. Its own url appears in the address field (facebook.com - winning.me) and the tab says "Congratulations!" Not clear if the Wunderground site has been hacked or what; But anyway, Safari is frozen: cannot close this tab can not choose any other, can only leave Safari of the maneuver of the app. And when I reopen it Safari, it's like that again. Don't think I want to tap on OK; So what to do? Tried to reset the iPad, but when I have opened Safari, it was back. I've seen similar things on my MacBook, which seem to be a kind of feat JavaScript function-related "reopen all windows when you restart Safari", but did not know how to deal in the iOS, because his bowels are closed to the user.

So, I was working on this post when I got an idea. I went to settings: Safari and tapped "clear history and data from the Web site. Open Safari: fixed. I guess I'll have to go back into a pile of passwords and other things, but it seems that I thought about it in any case. So I thought I would go ahead and after to warn other users to this potential problem into a solution.

This happens a lot. The iOS is not hacked, it is a malicious ad on a page. What you have done is the fix recommended for any time, that the browser is taken hostage by a malicious advertising

  • iOS 10 Safari / JavaScript bookmarklets

    I have not updated to iOS 10 again. Before that, I would like to know if Safari still allow JavaScript bookmarklets in iOS 10?

    (For the community, there was no Safari for iOS or any community for iOS in general applications.)

    To cite how this can be tested:

    You can change the address of any bookmark to

    JavaScript:Alert('test');

    and when you click the bookmark, if it displays "test" and then the JavaScript worked. Anyone can try this in iOS 10 Safari?

  • Safari for problem images iOS 9.3.4

    Since upgrading to iOS 9.3.3 and 9.3.4 on my iPad mini with 4 a lot (a lot) of sites Web shows no images or videos.    Sometimes clicking on a link in a site Web fails to start a search on this page.  The same sites work very well on my iPhone 6 set even iOS.  Safari is very generally useless to the time on the iPad Mini 4.

    What gives?   Y at - it a setting I missed?

    Try the settings > Safari > clear history, and data from the Web site, then restart. Hold down the sleep and home buttons until the Apple appears. See if that helps.

  • Normal (internal) link to external site opens in Safari on iOS after upgrade to cli - 6.0.0

    I just tested this again with a recompilation; It still does not work...

    My app has a normal link, (a href), to an external site, which should open in the application itself. This works very well in Android. But in the iOS, it opens externally in Safari when it is compiled with cli - 6.0.0. Compiled with cli - 5.2.0 that it opens in the app, no problem. I have the plugin added whitelist and origin allow browsing, attempts to authorize and access are all set to *.

    So I think it's a bug.

    Found!

    After being pointed in the right direction on Jira... it was the attempts to authorize that causes this behavior.

    Using

    or leave this entire string out of the config, causes an iOS open safari.

    However, by using the following in the config works correctly:

    And I thought using the * would be the easy way to configure this :-)

  • IPod touch ios 9 Virus/melware

    #1-No

    #2-maybe. By snooping them may be able to find your public IP address and BOF that they can get your site in general. If they know the yo wifi network are connected to so that they can most likely get your locations since it is the operation of the location services on the iPod.

  • Java support for iPad/iOS

    I know it's a long question/suggestion, but I wanted to give my use case. I have an iPad 2 Air right now, that I use for personal work content and limited content is mainly. I'm certainly interested to go to the Pro 12.9 inches because it has a lot more real estate and has been marketed as the iPad that can replace my laptop. iPad is incredibly close to realize this vision, for me, but with a glaring exception: part of my job is dependent on creating content HTML using a Java plug-in. clearly, iOS and Safari never supported Java and other plug-ins in Safari for iOS and it doesn't look like it is expected to do in iOS 10. If you want to really wonder iPad on something similar to a 4 Surface Pro or any traditional computer, you have to give me all the features that I need on top of everything that I know iPad can do. It's Apple, so I know that you are able to do. If all goes well, someday, you choose to act on it.  Thank you.

    It seems that you are talking to Apple here

  • iPad can not activate after update 9.3 iOS. "Incorrect Apple ID" used message, when it obviously isn't

    After the update to iOS 9.3 my 2 Mini iPad fails to activate.

    I get the message 'wrong apple ID' all the time, even if its my correct apple ID, that works on iTunes and iCloud, etc..

    I tried the activation via iTunes recovery mode and DFU mode, but nothing helps. I do not think it's a problem of server activation, this looks more like a problem with activation ID.

    I also tried to remove the device from iCloud, remove the device to locate your iPhone and even changed my password Apple ID.

    Is this a possible iOS Malware hack "Keyraider"?

    It is more likely that it is a bug on the Apple name, given the large number of threads with people having the same problem. Especially people with older devices.

    You may only be stuck waiting for them to sort out if restore via iTunes did not work for you.

  • Search for Safari crashes on all devices

    I have a question very bizzare. I am unable to use Safari with success on my iPad, iPhone and the iMac. They all run the latest versions of El Capitan & iOS respectively.

    On the iMac - safari takes over, but the search bar does not work - no search is possible (you can type, but does not appear or anything occurs when you press on enter), only by entering the URL manually. On iOS, the Safari app closes as soon as you touch the search bar. Typing a bookmark works well.

    Any thoughts? It feels as if something in iCloud is perhaps corrupt Safari on all fronts.

    Try the following steps:

  • Graphic covering unwanted downloaded file portfolio PDF [iOS]

    Download file PDF portfolio for iPad mini. Download successfully, but a graph appears saying to better read the portfolio should use "Adobe Reader X." and there is button telling me I should 'Get Adobe Reader now.'  Clicking on it tells me it is already loaded on the ipad: it's true. But cannot get rid of the image to view the portfolio. Please tell us how to remove the graph that somehow seems, it is integrated into my PDF file. I deleted the PDF file and re-downloaded - same problem

    Hello

    The 'download portfolio PDF file"appears in Safari (web browser by default on iPhone/iPad)?

    Does look like this in Safari on your iPad/iPhone?

    Apple iOS apps (Safari, Mail, iBooks, etc) and many other third-party PDF viewers do not support the PDF portfolio.

    The cover page of PDF portfolio (as shown in the screenshot above) appears when a PDF Viewer cannot display the contents of the portfolio.  In addition, please note that portfolios PDF with Adobe Flash content cannot be displayed on iOS devices.  (Because Apple has never failed Adobe Flash Player to be made available for iOS.)

    If a PDF portfolio contains no Flash content, it is possible to use the feature of "open in" iOS to open it in Adobe Reader for iOS.

    Please let us know if you have any questions about PDF portfolio on iOS.

    Thank you.

  • IOS10 location services

    Since the upgrade to iOS 10, Safari gives me an error of position "unavailable" when I navigate to sites that use this feature.  Location service is enabled for Safari and I don't have this problem with other applications.  Is this a known issue?

  • Selection lists does not not on Android FF but work on default browser

    Hi, hoping for help

    Building an online game site that I'd like to work on the mobile and the PC without different versions.

    I find that the selection lists do not open on FF Android or iOS FF-mobile, even if they work fine in the default browser Android and chrome. Could someone help me debug this, or is this a problem in FF?

    Page URL: http://www.HoldingTheBall.com/clubroom.php?logon=1
    To test: load the URL, click on the image of the Guernsey on the middle right, and then try to use one of the selection lists.
    Features of the page: HTML4, CSS, JS, Jquery, Jquery ui, Jquery-touch-punch (by drag and drop on mobile)

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

    There is no such thing as Firefox iOS. There is Firefox at home, who would have bookmarks Firefox Sync and the history of your iOS device. All the browsers on iOS are based on the iOS stock Safari Webkit.

    That being said on Firefox for Android that I see the behavior you mention. Is it still a question if you disable the div dragging?
