How do I delete stored email addresses in my iphone? When sending photos, I don't want to have certain email addresses  "popping up" from the internal memory, I've deleted my entire "Contact" list but they still appear.  Help please!

As with the Mail app on a Mac, the iPhone's Mail app stores all email recipients in a list of previous recipients which is separate from the address book or contacts. The email address autofill feature when addressing an message pulls from Contacts and from the list of previous recipients.
Different from the Mail app on a Mac, there is no access to the list of previous recipients with iOS on an iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad to remove a previous recipient from the list, or to add a previous recipient to the address book or contacts that is not already entered - not at the present time anyway.
The only way to purge the list of previous recipients at the present time is by restoring your iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup, which will start being re-populated again with every sent message.

    At the present time, the only way to clear that is to restore the phone as new.  Perhaps a future iOS update will give us the option to clear that cache.

  • I deleted some videos from camera roll but they still appear in the videos folder

    I removed some videos from my 4s to my computer but they still appear in a file called videos on my phone.  The file Videos doesn't show up on my computer when I plug my phone in to the USB.  How can I see this file on my computer when my phone is plugged in?

    The "Photos section" within the Photos app is just a view of your Photo Stream, organized by dates and locations.  You can see the exact same content by looking at "My Photo Stream" within the Albums section of the Photos app.
    So, deleting things from Camera Roll will have no effect on Photo Stream nor the "Photos" section of the app, except for pictures in Camera Roll which may not have been uploaded to Photo Stream yet.

    Your only way is if you have the version that was compatible on your computer such as in the recycle bin/trash or in a computer file backup. In that case delete the current version that is in your iTunes App library and replace it with the older version. Then sync.

  • I have lost all of my bookmarks from the drop-down menu. It says it is empty, but never have I deleted them. And when I bookmark a page it does not save it. Please help

    Question
    I have lost all of my bookmarks from the drop-down menu. It says it is empty, but never have I deleted them. And when I bookmark a page it does not save it. Please help

    Ok this is bizzare!
    Thank you for your response, I went throught each and every step without any luck, even got the recovery programme, and painstakingly tried to sift through all that mumbojumbo to find what i needed. finally found the bookmark bit, but it had been fully overwritten :(, so on reading about previous ff versions, found the sqlite thingys, and they were relatively unscathed(partly written over, but saveable apparently TG), saved them to adiff drive, amongst other possibly good folders. Then looked up how to install them, and it said to close FF, and install to profile folder.
    So i tried to close FF, and the original problem from a few days ago, where it asked me if 'i was sure i wanted to close this window as it has X tabs open', popped up again. This is where 'open blank page' selection was set, over 'open previous tabs'. Wanting to save that info on how to sort out these friggin files, I reset the Option to 'open previous tabs', and closed FF. After unsucessfully searching for the profile folder on my laptop, i opened FF intending to search online for where i could find said folder.
    AND BANG, surprise surprise, the FF I had just closed with only tabs open about finding out what the heck to do, had disappeared, and instead my original saved tabs were up, and my bookmarks are there..... I am gobsmacked! what the heck just happened there???
    I have made 3 back up in different folders now, of those friggin bookmarks. I am weary now tho of shutting it all down.... what if its back to the other pages I had with no bookmarks, tomorrow :(

  • How do i edit my billing info if my credit card associated with apple id expired and i have a duty to app store from the time when i had the old credit card?

    how do i edit my billing info if my credit card associated with apple id expired and i have a duty to app store from the time when i had the old credit card?
    so the thing is a few days ago i made an app store purchase and i didn't know i was running out of money on my credit card. i realized that only when i tried to purchase another item and it didn't work. nothing special til here. the problem is that meanwhile my credit card was replaced by a new one by the bank because the old one was soon expiring. So the data associated with the old credit card no longer exist.
    i tried to edit my billing info associated with my apple id in order to enter the new credit card data, but the system doesn't allow me to do that.
    so i can neither pay my purchase, nor edit my info, nor access app store anymore.
    what's next? any ideas? thanks

  • How can I recover deleted photos from the internal memory???

    Hello,
    I was using Sony Bridge to import photos from my phone to my Mac.
    After importing.. the software told me it was successful and complete then asked me if I wanted to delete the pics off my phone.. I pressed 'yes' because my phone was full on memory..
    After it was finished deleting I then decided to check my imported photos only to find they wern't even there?!??! It has created an iPhoto library.. but it won't even open and seems to be empty.. 
    All the photos are now deleted off my phone and I can't seem to find them anywhere on my Mac. I have tried recovery programs with no luck. 
    I am seriously upset :'(
    Is there any way to recover them from my internal memory!??! :-( 
    Are they on my Mac??!! Because Sony Bridge told me they had successfully imported!!! 

    Hi Natasha_L
    I'm very sorry for the late answer.
    I got a reply from the development crew today.
    We tested it and indeed we were able to reproduce it in the case that the iPhoto Library has been migrated into the new Photo Library.
    If that is the case, the user might be able to recover the pictures in the following directory:
    ~/Pictures/iPhoto Library.photolibrary/Auto Import
    If unfortunately the pictures are not there, there is an slight possibility that they still remain in the temporary directory, as they are first copied there and then moved into the Auto Import folder. To search that temporary directory, the user can run this command in the Terminal.app:
    find /var/ -name "iphoto" 2>/dev/null
    The problem will be fixed to BFM(4.1).
    Best regards
    Fredrik

  • If I block one contact from my iphone 6, it will be blocked in my iphone 5 too. I don't want to have it like that.

    greetings,
    i have 2 iphones (one is iphone 6) and (one is iphone 5)   both of them are using the same Apple ID. However, when I block a contact from one of my iphones, it will be reflected in the other one too. I don't want the contact to be blocked from both iphones.
    please advise.

    I believe if you configured your iPhone as per the Gmail instructions (http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=77702 - also look at the recommended client settings in step 8) it archives the message so it still appears in "All Mail" in Gmail. You would need to move it to "Trash" on the iPhone (I think) to permanently delete it...

  • My entire contact list on my iPhone 4S has disappeared

    I've a lot of problems ever since I upgraded to the 7.0 IOS.  Now my entire contact list has disappeared.  I turned off my phone and turned it back on again but all that came back was the email list from Facebook..no phone numbers and not half of my entire list.
    Anybody have any ideas on how to retrieve my contacts?

    Can't be done on the phone with deleting them individually.  You can however download the free app My Contacts Backup.  Open this app, tap the preferences (gear) icon on the bottom right, in the screen that opens scroll to the bottom and tap Remove all contacts.

    my reminders on my 4S are invisible. they still appear on my icloud and the reminders pop up when they're due but the list itself is blank. HELP!

    Try force-closing the Reminders app and reset your phone: double-tap the home button, locate Reminders, swipe up on the image above the app icon to close it, tap the home button again.  Then hold the power and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then release and wait for it to restart.  Then check your reminders again.

    hi Guys, i mistakenly synced my iphone and all my email contacts appears in my contacts list. its mixed up. can someone please assist me on how to delete the email address ONLY?

    Don't understand your problem... Contacts sync with a compatible address book or cloud service. Contact records can contain names, addresses, phone numbers, e-mail addresses, notes, or any combination of these. If you have records you don't want in your address book that you don't want in your contacts, then segregate them into groups in your address book and only sync the group(s) you want. If you don't want them there at all, then delete them.

  • When i add a new contact to my phone, their details are saved in my contact list, but the name doesn't show up when they ring or txt me, how can i change that?

    when i add a new contact to my phone, their details are saved in my contact list, but the name doesn't show up when they ring or txt me, how can i change that?

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely.  Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.
