MY iPad2 show pop up message" your iPad is infected by virus - follow instructions to rectify" . Thiis comes only for non https sites and NOT FOR http so sites.
This is happening verry recently after my upgrade to IOS 9.3.1
iPad 2, iOS 9.3.1
That recently happened to me! It makes you think that you have a virus and installing the app will remove the virus, but the app has no relationship with viruses and removing ransomeare and stuff. An ios device cannot get a virus unless you jailbreaked it.
I had this too.
go to settings, scroll down to the browser you used. tap on it and scroll down to : clear history and cookies.
tap on it. then double click home button and swipe away all open pages.
my ipad was fine after that.
This came from USA Today. Might have been an ad.
Any such message will be a scam, see below.
Hey! iOS devices can't be infected by viruses.
Go to Settings - Safari - Clear History and Website Data.
If this does not help, reset your device. This won't delete your data stored on the phone.
Alternatively, you may go to Settings - General - Reset - Reset All Settings
I Tried and reset the iPad by going to settings-general-reset-rest all settings.
same problem again. This message of " iPad infected by virus" comes only for non https sites.
any help will be apprecied.......
Settings - Safari - Clear history and website data.
i did everything....clear the data......even reset all....
the problem is the same.....
it is possible that apple cant fix this issue?...
I got that pop up too, on my iPad. I erased all settings and content, and got the pop up again. I also clicked the "okay" button on the pop up. Should I start panicking, and if so, what do I do now?
I am geting massages that my iphone 8 has been infected with viruses !!
