I continue to get a flow of cookies from Apple such as a1165.phobos.apple.com. They all begin with an "a" and have 3 or 4 numbers, then the Phobos.apple.com.
The cookies can get deleted by me and they keep returning, adding more each day with the most being twelve. This seems to have started recently. The only new app I have added has been Crunch?
Any ideas what these cookies from Apple are for? I have the cookie setting to only sites visited.
iPad, iOS 5
I have researched this on my husbands phone for 6 months off and on. Recently I started researching it on my phone bc this was not an issue on mine. I figured out a **** site that is the same domain you have listed. along with a lot more depending on how many times you click. I clicked 6 times on this site just to see and i have the one you listed, along with a1152.phobos.apple.com a963.phobos.apple.com a435.phobos.apple.com a651.phobos.apple.com a515.phobos.apple.com. So is this something you guys are doing? Any X-rated websites?
so when a new app is updated? does it matter what the app is or who it is from? and how can these appear every single day if it is from an app being updated cause I don't think apps are updated daily and where on the phone can you see the history of the apps updated?
thanks
I have have apps updated via the phone every week. Just had one app with two updates in as many days.
When an app is updated within the iPad, iPhone, or Mac using either iTunes, those pesky files show up. On the Mac you will also see the older file that was replaced in the trash.
I purge those files every few weeks as there will be at least 10-20 phobos files in the list.
Mbarnes I think you hit the nail on the head. I just found the same things in my ex's phone a few months back. There was even some type of site called Pastebin where you could hide private sex chats.He accessed sites like:
xvideos.com
localmilfselfies.com
backpage.com
escortbabylon.net.
mobile.localmilfselfies.com
forum.xnxx.com
hoxnif.com
datingframe.com
adultsearch.com
mobile.4inches4weeks.com
mycasualmilf.net
After accessing those sites, the following phobos showed up in the phone:
a375.phobos.apple.com
a395.phobos.apple.com
a212.phobos.apple.com
a1947.phobos.apple.com
a414.phobos.apple.com
I am not disagreeing with the answer,s but why are those same cookies not appearing in cookies on my Mac which goes to the App store and iTunes store as much or more than on my iPad?
they're from the iTunes Store. What they are for I have no idea.
These are links to specific pages in the app store.
It seems like they come from the iBooks store.

I think that was established more than 2 years ago when the question was already asked and answered
Did not find my answer (iBooks store) in previous ones.
This is what appears after you get an app for iPhone/iPad or update the app.
Just delete/ignore them, as they are of no use once you have updated.

Is this something who is doing?
I am searching for the sites who give a.phobos.apple.com cookies on the iphone. You found them. Can you telle me which sites that are?

This phobos.apple.com is showing up 1000's of times and I've only had my phone 3 weeks. I've already gone over 11 GB's of data when before I only used 1.5 GB/month.
