A number of peoples names associated with an email address have been changed to "Apple Computer Inc." in Mail  Anyone else experiencing this?

When I type in a letter in the "To" box, let's say 'a', a number of my contact come up with "Apple Computer Inc" as the name associated with an email address.  In the past, the person's name was listed i.e Joe Smith <[email protected]>.  Now it looks like this Apple Computer Inc.<[email protected]>  Anyone else experienceing this?

  • How can I change the name associated with an email address?

    I assumed an existing account but would like to change the tag name associated with it. Right now it is still showing up as a colleague's name.

    Hi Rossion,
    Firefox is a web browser. It displays the content of existing sites. Things like email or page contents come from the content provider. Who is your email provider? You'll probably have better luck consulting their help documentation. There should be a settings menu that allows you to change your personal account information.
    Hopefully this helps!

  • How to change the name associated with iCloud email alias??

    I had MobileMe on the iPhone with alias email addresses and I liked how it didn’t attach any “name” to an alias. For example, I had MainUserName, then for aliases I would have [email protected], [email protected], etc. When I sent an email from my iPhone using one of the aliases as the "from" no name would be associated with the alias email address. If it was the MainUserName then it would associate it, e.g. Main User <[email protected]> will show up on the "From" field when I sent an email. But with iCloud on the iPhone (and iPad), it’s Main User <[email protected]>, Main User <[email protected], etc., which I don’t want.  If anything it should be Alias 1 <[email protected]> or Alias 2 <[email protected]>.  Anyway, I don't want any name associated with the aliases, so when I send an email it will simply say [email protected] or just [email protected] with no name association. 
    It works differently if I access iCloud through a web browser.  If I send an email via iCloud on the web, I can customize and have a different name with each alias, e.g., Tom <[email protected]> or Harry <[email protected]>  And the customization carries over to the Mail app on my Mac.  That would be ideal if the customization carried over to the iPhone and iPad, but I'd be happy if there was no name association with alias email addresses.  Hopefully, there's a solution to the iPhone/iPad situation with iCloud as I don't want the name linked with the main iCloud email address linked with all the different email aliases I have.

    Can I change the name associated with an ipod on my Mac?
    Select the iPod in the iTunes source list, click on its name, and type a new name.
    And can there be more than one iPod on one computer?
    Yes.

  • In Mail, the "From" line shows the wrong name associated with the email id. How do I update it?

    In Mail, the "From" line shows the wrong name associated with my email ID. I've looked over preferences and account information but have not found where I can update it.

    There isn't an email address associated with the contact name who appears as the "from" in Mail. It used to be a shared email address and I already had updated the contact to list only the phone number in case that was causing the problem. 

  • How do I delete an Apple ID account. I apparently have 2 IDs associated with one email address.

    how do I delete an Apple ID account. I apparently have 2 IDs associated with one email address.

    If you go onto your ipod, under settings, scroll down to icloud, there should be a botton that says, "delete account". push this, and it should delete an account.

  • My original Apple ID is associated with an email address that I no longer have access to. How do I reset the system to recognize my new email address as my primary point of contact and erase the other one?

    If when you go to icloud.com and sign in with your current iCloud ID you see all your iCloud data there, you can safely sign out of the iCloud account on your Mac and choose Delete at all the prompts, then sign back in with the current ID.  This only deletes the data from your Mac, not from iCloud.  Your iCloud data will reappear on your Mac when you sign back in after a brief delay as it redownloads.  If you have automatically imported your photo stream photos to your iPhoto library you won't lose them either (if you haven't, save them to your library first).
    Again, only do this if when you go to icloud.com with your current ID you see your iCloud data there.

  • I changed emails.  My user ID will not let me get into my phone to do any updates, but the user id is associated with an email address that no longer exists

    What a mess the Apple ID, and associating emails, ID etc has got itself in
    I have a new iPad but after 2 days of trying all sorts still can't sync it because it is says it is associated to the other via the iCloud
    I can't use my alternate email address to setup a new Apple ID account as it says it's already used or associated, but I haven't knowingly done anything
    One message says "This email address is already in use or you may already have an Apple ID associated with this email address. Please try again or sign in using your existing Apple ID."
    I am at a complete loss on what to do

  • Request to delete all the Lenovo accounts associated with my email address

    Made the mistake of registering my Lenovo accounts on the US site which means that I cannot register any account information relevant to the UK (my address is one example) so can you either delete all the accounts associated with my email address so that I can create a new account on the UK site OR can you place all the accounts associated with my email under the UK site. Thank you.

    I've tried that but I just get this message 
    Unable to find the Lenovo ID and password combination you have entered. Please try again, or use the link below to create a new account.
    Yet it works fine on the US site?
    Can you try changing the regions from the lookup next to the lenovo logo at the tab after logging in the us site?

    Hello, my name is Karan Taneja and i have been a loyal Apple customer.
    I have been using Apple since it introduced iphone 4 and have been upgrading/buying every new phone Apple introduces after that.
    I was always happy and surprized to see Apple doing so good to its customers.
    Unfortunately, i experienced some thing really unprofessional and different this time.
    It begun suddenly one day when i tried to charge my phone, the phone was on silent mode and as usual the phone vibrated when i kept it for charge.
    After a few seconds the phone vibrated twice or thrice again when i re-inserted the cable thinking it might be loose.
    It continued to charge well when i left the room for 2 hours and finally when i returned i could see a damaged i phone 5
    lying on the floor and the phone vibrating continuously and i figured out there was a fault with the cable and the
    current wasnt flowing continuously due to which the phone continued to vibrate and fell off the shelf.
    Next day i took the iphone to Apple service centre at Saket which was closed.
    Thinking its August 15 and so the store might be closed i went back to home and waited for the next day but unfortunately could not turn up since
    i had to go to work on odd timings.
    I again went to the same service centre on 17th August 2013 and saw the service centre closed again when i tried to contact
    the other service centre and was informed about Saket's service centre already been shut down.
    There was no hoarding/ banner any kind of intimation for the customers.
    Since 18th August was Sunday and i was occupied on 19th August i went to service centre at Ansal Plaza Khel Gaon Marg on
    20th August 2013 to complaint about the Faulty Cable and the damaged caused to my iphone 5 due to the same.
    I very well explained the same to one of the person at the receiving desk at the service centre who accepted the cable
    but explained me that he doesnt have the authority to accept my iphone without permission from the technical support people
    who will be able to help me in that case and gave me the toll free number.
    i Tried to reach the toll free number and finally managed to get online with a technical support executives who too all my details and
    summary of the problem i experienced and finally kept me on hold for almost 10 minutes ormore after which he said he said that my
    case cannot be considered and while the discussion was on, the call was disconnected and i was left frustrated as i still was at the service centre
    but finally i left with no hope from Apple .
    I tried to reach again at the toll free number, and finally managed to talk to a well behaved person who assured me of considering my case and suggested
    me to go back to the service centre and advice the the person at the recieving end there to get me connected to the technical support team when i reach so that i could
    submit my phone but, since, it was already around 4:30 and the service centre was about to shut and due to traffic
    conditions all around i thought of visiting the service centre next day.
    On 21st August 2013, i went back to the service centre and spoke to the one of the store person who adviced the case to the manager Mr. Alok ( as i remember )
    who was really rude to tell me that i will have to call the technical support team on my own and then he will connect and that its not his work and all that .
    I finally connected to one of the senior technical support executives Mr.Mohamed Azharuddin K who understood my concern and spoke to the manager of the store to accept
    my iphone.
    My iphone was finally collected and i was assured i would get a call back next day from the service centre about the update.
    It was now 22nd August 2013, no update was given,no call was received, i tried to call the service centre at 12:30, they were unaware about my case and knew only about the cable and said will call me
    back very shortly.
    I called back at 2:30, still no update, at 4:30 i called back again when i was told that my case cannot be considered and i can collect my phone.
    Similar discussion was held with Mr.Mohamed Azharuddin K.
    I knew by the time i will reach the service centre would again close.
    He told me that my case cannot be considered since the cable was recieved in the dead condition and wasnt working at all unlike what i told him about the cable.
    On 23th August 2013, i went back to the service centre and collected my phone. When i asked about my old cable and told them that it was working and i wanted the technician
    to check it properly when i handed it over, they had no answer but to say its already shipped. I spoke to the manager who said that he never told any body that the cable
    was received in dead condition and he only conveyed to other authorities that the cable had fault .
    I finally dont know what to do and came back with the new cable.
    I just visited my time, petrol and parking charges in getting the cable replaced.
    If i calculated i have spent around 16 hours and 2000 worth of money in just getting the cable replaced and have a broken phone in hand.
    More than a weeks torture.
    Is that the way apple compensates for its fault ????????????????
    I will make sure that i never buy any thing from Apple and advice all the people i know to not trust Apple blindly.

    Wow, Karan Taneja, you've just embarrassed yourself on a worldwide support forum.  Not only is your post ridiculous and completely inappropriate for a technical support forum, but it also shows your ignorance as to whom you think the audience is.  Apple is not here.  It's users, like you. 
    If you would have spent half the time actually reading the Terms of Use of this forum that YOU agreed to by signing up to post, as you did composing that usesless, inappropriate post, you (and the rest of us on this forum) would have been much better off.

    Hey! I had the same problem you did just today when I was trying to get my second iPhone to sync. What you need to do with music or anything extra that you doing you have to creat a second playlist or picture or anything that you would like to use, so that you can add to the second device that you are going to be using. I am not sure if that will help but it helped me out a lot!! Good luck!

  • HT4623 I updated my phone yesterday to ios7.0.4 and have lost the mail icon along the bottom of the screen which sits with safari, phone and the music icon. Has anyone else experienced this?

    Hi kylie,
    The Mail app cannot be deleted, so it is there somewhere. Look at all of your other Home screens to see if you can find it.
    If you cannot, do a spotlight search to see if it got accidently moved into a folder: swipe down in the center of the screen to bring up the search bar - type in Mail - you should see the Mail icon in the search results. If it got moved into a folder, you will see the folder name on the right side. If it is in a folder, open the folder, and tap and hold the Mail icon until it wiggles, then slide it out and back to the place where you want it to be.
    If that doesn' work, you can also go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout. This will move all of your icons into the original order that they were on the phone. You may have to move stuff around after this to where you want it to be, but all of the Apple system apps will be on the first Home screen.
    Cheers,

  • I just updated Safari with version 5.1.10 and now I cannot use "open location".  Anyone else having this problem and are there any solutions?

    Ok ...
    Try troubleshooting extensions and third party plugins.
    From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test. If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.
    If it's not an extensions issue, try troubleshooting third party plug-ins.
    Back to Safari > Preferences. This time select the Security tab. Deselect:  Allow all other plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.
