• I was using iDownloaders browser and a message came your device is infected with a virus. I removed the app from my mini iPad 2 but now I feel crashes especially among angry birds. I want to restore, but I fear that the virus will reinstall.

  I used the iDownloaders app browser, (it is a video download application I use for a few years with no problems), when a message came "your machine is infected with a virus please leave the app and contact Apple." I removed the app from my mini iPad 2, but now I meet including crashes in Angry Birds Seasons and Rio. I want to restore the iPad, but I fear that the virus will reinstall themselves as well. Apple did not contact because I never heard of someone who got a virus using iOS. I took it slightly think to delete the iDownloader app would solve the problem. Im running version 9.2 on a retina mini iPad 2. Maybe someone has an answer on what I can try before you contact Apple. I appreciate any suggestions thanks JohnG

  Unless your iPad is jailbroken, it is not infected.  This notice is a well known scam to a fraudulent web site.  You can restore.

• The browser safari in my macbook pro keeps popping up ads in new tabs saying my mac is infected with the virus and requires immediate cleaning. Is there really a virus problem? The ads are recurring.

  Browser Safari keeps popping up ads in a new tab by saying that my mac is infected with the virus, the advertising comes back repeatedly.

  N ° any message in a web browser saying that a Mac OS X system has a virus or other software malware is a scam; some sites Web legitimately analyzes the files uploaded to them, but is unable to scan the entire system.

  Even on Windows, unless you manually ran a scan of malware in your web browser, the same applies.

• I get a message that my computer is infected. I want to stop the message from popping up and can't seem to find a way to do it. I'm not savvy computer then

  I need help. Even though I know a lot of bases of the use of the computer, I'm not familiar with a lot of the terminology and procedures. Right now I'm at the office. My boss is absent.  I was using the computer and suddenly it starts to give a message that the computer is infected and some "pop up" continues to appear telling me to pay for some sort of "spyware" protection but I can't pay for it and I just want to stop the pop up from popping up.  It seems that it is just a ploy to get me to buy the "anti-spyware".   I can't even "System Restore" to work.  I just want to stop this "warning" popup to appear.

• AVG anti virus detect any ADF application as being infected

  We feel something weird right now. Since some time between 21 July and 22 all versions of AVG anti-virus are detecting the ADF as being infected by a virus JS/Redir javascript libraries. I already tried to contact the AVG on the issue, but they still have to answer in return. At the moment our applications are seen by users as infected with the virus. Since our application is internet facing us cannot really control what anti virus used by our clients. AVG is a fairly popular anti virus so I do not know that some of our customers was probably hit by it.
  
  Until someone asks even the demo hosted by Oracle to http://jdevadf.oracle.com/adf-richclient-demo/faces/index.jspx component causes AVG trigger, it is not only our application do.
  
  Any ideas on what can be done to get AVG to fix this fast (I think Oracle could carry more weight with them so we would do).

  I remember a similar question 2 or 3 years ago, where this provider software used a false positive. This issue then slipped by Oracle inform the seller of this false positive

• get a message on my mac to update itunes on my iphone

  I have an iphone 5s and I get the following message on my Mac.

  Impossible to use the iPhone "IPhone of Harold" because it requires a newer version of iTunes. Go to www.itunes.com to download the latest version of iTunes.

  I've updated the latest version and I still get the message every time I connect my phone to my Mac.  Any suggestions?

  If you use Mac OS X 10.6.8 as indicated in your profile, then the latest version of iTunes that runs on it is new enough to be compatible with your iPhone. You need iTunes 12.3 and Mac OS 10.6 tops out at iTunes 11.4. You must upgrade your version of OS X to get a newer iTunes. You can download OS X El Capitan (10.11) from the Mac App Store.

  Yes.

  You ask about equipment. No, the viruses infect software,

  I have Photoshop CS5.1 on my Mac now and you want to transfer to my Mac Book Air newly purchased. How can I do?

  Just install it like you did the first time (do not try to transfer from the old machine somehow) - you can download it through your account if you bought for download originally - otherwise, there is a link to download below. Your serial number should be available through your so into account your registered Adobe software previously.

  If you want, you can leave it on the first machine as a backup because you are allowed to have two active facilities.  If you want to remove from the older machine you should first turn it off (open an application and choose Help-> Deactivate).
