Not quite sure how all the password certification programs work. My wife recently got an e-mail from Google services with over 50 password that it claimed were compromised. Not terribly surprising except that some of them were accounts that still had the email my wife used before she switched

I don’t think that was the issue. When I followed Matt’s link, the site said my password had been part of a data breech. So I changed it.. Cheers, Donna Sent from my iPad > On Mar 6, 2021, at 12:25 AM, tim m wrote: > >  > You got that message because apple new security tells you if any

You got that message because apple new security tells you if any passwords have ben used with more then one account. It really don't like when you use the same email for your apple account with any other. Like it had a fit when it seen walmart. On 3/4/2021 7:25 PM, 'Donna Goodin' via

Hi, That is the same thing that Brad was talking about. This message actually suggested that my password had already been compromised. Which it had, according to the link Matt sent, so I did change it. Cheers, Donna Sent from my iPad > On Mar 5, 2021, at 3:30 AM, Muhammad Fayed wrote: > >

The reason behind such message is to ask you to change your password. When there is a website with weak security, passwords may leak. If a password has some way to match to any of your passwords, the website will ask you to change it. Your password is mostly secure, but there is no barrier that

also, be sure you are trying the second link. granted, I am working in a lower graphics environment, but the second site link worked fine for me, with my discovering my email address has not been compromised. Quite the peaceful thing to learn given how many years I have used this one. Kare

Matt, Apparently that domain is up for sale. I keep getting a site that says it’s parked. Clicking on the other links doesn’t reveal an edit box in which to enter the data (in this case, email). I thought you would want to know. -Eric > On Mar 4, 2021, at 4:59 PM, 'Matthew Dierckens' via

Probably none of those. If you are using the same password on multiple sites, Apple will warn you, and recommend you do something about it, though their information is usually vague. - Brad - On Mar 4, 2021, at 17:56, 'Donna Goodin' via MacVisionaries wrote: I figured that was probably the

I figured that was probably the case, but it sure would be nice to have better information. I would think if book share had been hacked, they would’ve put some thing on their site or let people know somehow. The only other option I can see that that leaves us that my Mac is compromised, and if

Sounds like a notification from the Safari Saved Passwords utility feature of iCloud Keychain. I don’t know where Apple gets this information from, or if it is creditable. I suppose what action you decide to take is up to you. - Brad - On Mar 4, 2021, at 17:16, 'Donna Goodin' via
