And I mean I am down right stupid when it comes to ANYTHING tech. All I do is text talk and play games. Don’t even know why pics keep disappearing or settings are being changed with out me doing the changes. And no I don’t remember giving any permissions to any apps right before I notice the changes. And it makes me go to setting anyway to make any changes therefore I would remember it.

You might want to consider changing your password and making sure it is a strong one. You can also add 2 Factor Authentication to your account for more security. If the attempts continue, you might want to consider a name change.

It's simply a certificate the verifies you are trusted or that the computer you are connecting with is trusted. These are security precautions intended to prevent hacking. This is hardly tech talk.


"Also how do I disable unauthorized pairing to an apple device I have no access to when the device has access to ALL my ****. " I'm not sure what you mean. What devices are around you that are unauthorized and paired to one another? You have to clarify this situation - too much tech talk for me to understand.
