Concern over iPhone 4 security

    My email account was compromised yesterday which meant that many people in my contacts got spammed by ads so I started changing my passwords for my email accounts and switched my Apple ID to another one also.

    But thing is, after I had done all of that and gotten to sorting out my iCloud (which was a pain) everything started to f*ck up.

    My phone wouldn't update to iCloud because it gave warnings that it didn't trust it. I got the same warnings of false authenticity from the email servers and even when I was browsing google over safari. Even the time and date is messed up and won't fix itself.

    It's all pretty strange and the phone just isn't working properly so I have it in airplane mode since last night.

    Any ideas on what's going on with it?

    Sometimes an out of sync timestamp can cause trust issues between devices. Is the time and date on your iPhone the correct current time?

    Is your PC's date and time correct? Have a look at the location settings in your PC and iPhone (and iTunes) settings and make sure they're all the correct/the same.

    Then do a hard reset on the iPhone. (Hold down the sleep/wake button and the home button until the phone restarts).

    Also a scan for viruses if your email has been compromised might not be a bad idea.

    I'm not an expert but maybe this will help. Good luck.
