Can't get rid of an e-mail address on iPhone

I send an e-mail from my iPhone and it was the wrong e-mail account. Now, I can't seem to delete it from my iPhone. I have deleted it from my mail account online, I have deleted it from my contacts, I have deleted it from my outlook. I have synched and deleted and resynched. I have searched multiple emails and can't find it on my computer.. so that was good. But, it's still on my iPhone. Any ideas how to get this abarant email address OFF my iPhone?

I know I wish there was a way to cause I had to restore my phone as new. I looked all on the web not just these furoms and I could find nothing just people saying to do a restore. Hopefully something easier comes about in this 2.0 update but who knows? If you find a different way you should post it.

I have a new iPad. I am using Comcast as my email provider but when I send a message, it pulls up the facebook email addresses for my contacts instead of the addresses stored in my comcast account. How can I get rid of the Facebook email addresses? The comcast addresses are stored in the comcast (xfinity) app. I do not use the "mail" or "contacts" apps ....I go straight to comcast (xfinity). I wish I could start over!!! thanks.

I could be wrong, but it sounds like Facebook imported to your contacts. I have the Xfinity app on my new ipad, too, but none of my stored contacts from the online version are showing, only what I manually entered into the iPads contacts are there. When I did add the FB app, I did not grant it permission to push and pull from my ipad (not a fan of FB knowing every detail about me), so that may be where our difference lies. You could try to open the app and change your privacy settings, or delete it and then reinstall without granting permissions to integrate.
I'm sure someone here with a lot more knowledge then me can probably diagnose your issue better, though. Good luck!

Hi Sister Kate,
If you change the Apple ID you are using on an iPhone or other iOS device, there are several places you need to change it on the device. See this article -

Can I get Apple Store's e-mail address for customers?

Can I get Apple Store's e-mail address for customers? My ipad mini with Retina has been delivered to wrong address.

I do not believe that Apple stores have email addresses - if you are referring to the online store, you can contact them via this link:

(this is for the US store as you do not have any info listed)

EUREKA, I found the solution to my problem in a Discussion initiated by gingertodd on July 27, 2011 entitled "Safari in Lion hijacked by malware." The solution was provided by Badunit who recommended force quitting Safari and then reopening it while holding down the Shift key. It worked instantly, and I subsequently was able to open Safari normally by just clicking on its icon in the Dock. THANK YOU BADUNIT!

How can I get rid of 14 e-mails that say "This message has no content."

How can I get rid of 14 emails on my iPad Touch that say, "This message has no content." Since I can't open them, neither can I delete them.

- Try resetting the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Can you delete them if you access them on another device?

Can't get rid of self assigned IP address

Hello,
I have been trying to resolve this problem by myself for the last 4 days (by googling and reading forums) but nothing works so here I am.
I moved last Tuesday and everything worked fine until that day. Since I am in my new apartment, I can't connect to the Internet because of a self assigned IP address. Here is more info:
-I have a new modem since I moved (the apartment where I was living was furnished and had a modem already). However, I am using the same service provider and modem than the apartment I was subletting.
-I only have a modem (no router) and I use the Ethernet to connect.
-I am writing this message from a PC laptop which confirms that the modem is working fine and that the ethernet cable is fine, etc.
-I did many rounds of shutting down the computer, renew DHCP, unplugging the modem (from 1 minute to 10 hours) and plugging everything back.
-I called the ISP but they could not help (they just repeated the same instructions that I could find in the guide)...They have no idea how I can get rid of the self assigned IP address.
The problem is still the same, I can't get rid of the self assigned IP address (169.xxx).
Please help if you know other tricks to fix that issue...
Thanks a LOT in advance!!
Julie

Re 1) Setting up a new account won't solve the problem in itself but it will help narrow down the cause. The idea is this: the problem might be caused by something system-wide (e.g. a preference file in /Library/Preferences) or it might be caused by something that is specific to your account (e.g. a preference file in yourhome/Library/Preferences). If we knew which, we could target the troubleshooting appropriately. The easiest way to figure out which is to create a new user, log in as that user and see if the problem remains. If it does, it must be system-wide; if not, it is specific to your account.
Are you using any firewall software? If you are using Tiger's built-in firewall, how is it configured?

Can't get rid of pesky junk mail

I use the Apple Mail Version 6.5 (1508) application for my emails. I have found the Junk Mail feature to be very helpful. If I label a message "Junk," It is treated as junk when I receive the same message later on. However, there is one pesky junk mail that is being sent to me about 5 times per week that ignores the junk mail label and does not go to the trash. After labeling it Junk several times, I gave up and went to the Rules function and made a rule that, when it is received, it is to be deleted. That works just fine on my Mac, but I know it is still being sent because it still shows up on the email app on my iPhone.
Questions:
1. Why doesn't Mail succeed in tagging that message as Junk so that it will go to Junk Mail like all the other stuff?
2. Is there anything I can do to force that message to Junk Mail? I'd rather not have to use Rules to get rid of it.
3. Is there any kind of Junk Mail filter available for an iPhone 4S that runs on iOS 6.1.3? I've submitted that to Apple as a suggestion, but, of course, I've had no reply.
Thanks for any assist you can give.

I went to my provider's web site and set my email Rule to delete any message containing the unique name used in the sender. So far the string of emails has stopped, but sometimes spammers take holidays off, so I'll wait to see what happens later, but I'm really excouraged as of now. Thanks again for the suggestion.

Can't get rid of mobile me mail account

Hello all,
When I was setting up my mac, I inadvertently told it I had a mobile me account, one based on my old apple ID. I decided ultimately not to set up a mobile me account, and set up my mail accounts. Now, whenever I open mail, it asks for the password to smtp.me.com:username.
I deleted the mobile me account in preferences, but it doesn't matter - the **** thing pops up and asks for a password everytime I open it.
Any suggestions on how to get rid of it asking for my mobileMe access for an account I don't have?
Thanks,
Ben

Edit your server list and remove the macmail server.

Can't get printer to create e-mail address

I have a new 6500a printer at home. It is hooked up to ethernet and the internet. I can print to it from the PC's on my network and it is on the internet because I can access my google documents through the apps screen. It fails to create an e-mail printer e-mail address. It says the prnter was unable to connect to the server. How specifically do I get the e-mail address to setup so that I can print from my ipad using eprint?

You may need to set a static IP for your printer. Shane_R posted a link on this post to a document that will walk you through it. Click on the link below

Also as he states in his post make sure when it askes for DNS information, enter in Google's DNS. Preferred DNS = 8.8.8.8 Alt DNS = 8.8.4.4

The problem is that I can not verify her id on message and on Facetime
has that to do that the ipad has no tel number of course?? Should I leave my id number on her iPad ??
That isn't due to not having a phone number on her iPad. You can use FaceTime with any iPad using an email address as the "phone number". And if her iPad isn't a first generation iPad, if she uses the same Apple ID for FaceTime on both her iPhone and iPad, her iPhone number can be used as well (see iOS and OS X: Link your phone number and Apple ID for use with FaceTime and iMessage).
If her iPad is not verifying her Apple ID for FaceTime it's probably because the Apple servers are busy. Keep trying and it should verify. If you continue to have problems with this, look through the troubleshooting steps here: iOS: Troubleshooting FaceTime and iMessage activation.

How do I get rid of the UK store on my iPhone ?

Hello,
Thanks for a quick answer from wjosten. I have done what he suggested and I am in the French store and have been there all the time but I still can't get rid of the UK store on my iPhone ?? It's App store iTunes and kiosque. I can't get apps from the Uk store and the French store is avoiding to download too!
What can I do ?
Best regards
Lisser

Try going to Setings > iTunes and App Store > AppleID > View Apple ID and switch to the UK store, then from the AppleID drop down pane, Sign Out. Start over at Settings > iTunes & App Store > AppleID and and ssign in again and then select the French store and see if it hasn't dropped the UK store.

In Mail, one mailbox for Recovered Message (AOL) keeps showing 1 very large message that I cannot delete. How can I get rid of this recurring problem, please?

In Mail on iMac, successfully running OS X Lion, one mailbox on My Mac for "Recovered Messages (from AOL)" keeps showing 1 very large message (more than 20 Mb) that I just cannot seem to delete. Each time I go into my In Box, the "loading" symbol spins and the message appears in the "Recovered Messages" mailbox. How can I get rid of this recurrent file, please?
At the same time, I'm not receviving any new mails in my In Box, although, if I look at the same account on my MacBook Pro, I can indeed see the incoming mails (but on that machine I do not have the "recovery" problem).
The help of a clear-thinking Apple fan would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks.
From Ian in Paris, France

I worked it out.
Unhide your hidden files ( I used a widget from http://www.apple.com/downloads/dashboard/developer/hiddenfiles.html)
Go to your HD.
Go to Users.
Go to your House (home)
there should be a hidden Library folder there (it will be transparent)
Go to Mail in this folder
The next folder ( for me ) is V2
Click on that and the next one will be a whole list of your mail servers, and one folder called Mailboxes
Click on that and there should be a folder called recovered messages (server) . mbox
Click on that there a random numbered/lettered folder -> data
In that data folder is a list of random numbered folders (i.e a folder called 2, one called 9 etc) and in EACH of these, another numbered folder, and then a folder called messages.
In the messages folder delete all of the ebmx (I think that's what they were from memory, sorry I forgot as I already deleted my trash after my golden moment).
This was GOLDEN for me. Reason being, when I went to delete my "recovered file" in mail, it would give me an error message " cannot delete 2500 files". I knew it was only 1 file so this was weird. Why 2500 files? Because if you click on the ebmx files like I did, hey presto, it turned out that they were ALL THE SAME MESSAGE = 2500 times. In each of those folders in the random numbers, in their related message folder.
Now remember - DONT delete the folder, make sure you have gone to the message folder, found all those pesky ebmx files and deleted THOSE, not the folder.
It worked for me. No restarting or anything. And recovered file. GONE.
Started receiving and syncing mail again. Woohoo.
Best wishes.
