Address change/Deleting old address??

I am having a problem deleting the "old" address when I have entered the new changed address in the Address Book. Even though the old address does not show as a card in Address Book, when entering the address for the recipient in mail, the "old" address pops in.
How do I remove all the old addresses?

In Mail, go to Window->Previous Recipients and delete the old address.

I am having the same issue too. It looks like many more people are having it as well. I called Apple Support a few times, but they use their standard naiive response: "we have never heard about this issue".
It is an issue of DHCP implementation on the Apple OS. My windows PCs and Printer are not having these issues..

I changed my AppleID / email address after my old email expired, and now whenever I go to sign into iCloud on my computer it still shows my OLD AppleID in the log-in and it won't let me change it. So I can't sign into iCloud! I can still sign into iTunes though from my iPhone and laptop, but iCloud isn't working anymore, where do I go to update my AppleID in the log-in for iCloud???

Welcome to the Apple Community.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

How to delete old addresses

Hello, I have had a good bit of time spent on this today, and with alot of input from paypal (to no avail) I have sorted it for myself. If you have loads of old addresses that are now redundant, this is how you get rid of them (its probably a bit long winded, but it is the ONLY way I have found to do it, not even 3 service representatives could do it.....). I will take you through baby steps (stick with me), its a bit odd, but it works. 1. When you have logged into paypal, click on the gear cog (near the log out button)2. Your name then appears in big letters on the middle-ish of the page3. Next to my name, it says "edit"4. Click edit.5. It will ask you if you want to change your name, click cancel6. It will then take you to a more in-depth "My Profile" page7. Third option down will be, "address" (Name, email, address). You can then see all your previous address and remove as necessary.8. Ta-dah! It should now be only the addresses you wish to keep I know its convoluted, but it worked for me. Good luck!!

Hi, I have a little more info on this topic that I'd like to share. I thought I had deleted all the old addresses a few months ago -- my current address was the only one that showed up on the main profile page. Today, I used PayPal to make a purchase online, and it changed the shipping address to one of the addresses I thought I had removed! I found your post, and found the secret profile page. It still showed 11 addresses, but I got an error when I tried to delete anything, so I called Customer Support. After fighting with the automated system for a while, I finally got a person and explained it to her, including how to find the secret page. It took her a while, but she was able to delete all the old addresses! Much happiness and cheering ensued. So the moral of the story is that, if you can't delete them yourself, MAYBE an informed Customer Service person can do it.

How can I delete old addresses from the automatic fill?

I set up a new account on a G4 PowerMac with 10.3.9 installed. This computer was being used previously by one of my other users. My question is: whenever the new user wants to send a new message and she types in the address she needs to use, it is set to automatically fill the address. All of the old user's addresses still appear as choices. How do I delete all the old addresses? I've already deleted all the old addresses from the address book. But they still appear in the automatic fill. Is there a cache somewhere to empty?
Help!

How to change/delete iCloud address, created with typo the first time

How can I change or delete this, I had a typo when creating this originally and am unable to find a solution. I understand that an alias can be created, but I would rather just start over.
I do not use the @me account as a primary apple account, I have a comcast account for that. The reason this came up is when I wanted to sync notes with iCould, it forced me to create this, then I had a type and was unable to change it since then.

Unfortunately, you cannot change your .me address once you have created it. The only thing that you can do is use an alias, or create a new Apple ID using the .me address of your choice.

Changed my email address and the old address keeps coming up when I got to update my apps.

I changed my email address and password. However the old address keeps popping up whenever I go to update my apps. How can I change it?

you cannot update apps that were purchased through your old email account without logging on to them because they were purchased through that one. It will only recognize the old one..... I have the same problem and have a new account but can't update all my original apps....very frustrating! I cannot remember the password and they want to mail it to a non existing email account..

How to delete old addresses that appear in auto complete list in iMessage

Mavericks 10.9.1
iMessage Version 8.0 (4218)
MBP Late 2011
When typing in the name of a contact I want to message, a list of addresses appears as an auto-complete/auto-fill list.
One address is no longer used and I would like to delete that particular address.
The address is not on the contact card.
I'm sending a message via iMessage to another iMessage verified address on an Apple device(s).
My iCloud contacts are synced correctly with iphone/ipad/MBP.
Thanks

First, search Contacts to make sure the address doesn't appear on any card. If it doesn't, continue.
Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.iChat
Right-click or control-click the line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Quit the application if it's running. Move the selected item to the Trash. Relaunch the application and test.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

How do I delete old addresses out of maps on my iPhone6?

There's a long list of addresses in my maps app that I'd really love to get rid of, but see no way to do it. Am I stuck going through this list of addresses every time I use maps? Is there seriously no way to delete them? I have an iPhone 6 running the latest operating system.
Thanks,
Darlee

On my 5s the following works: Open Maps, tap in the search/address field, tap "Favorites" then tap "Recents" at the bottom and Clear at the top.

My address book on my laptop will not delete old addresses and willl not accept new addresses how do I fix that?

I did receive a fix some time ago from a generous person but due to my age 75 the answer was Greek to me. So the problem still stands - could the instructions be posted once again?

How can i change delete old Apple ID on my iphone, i dont know the password

i change the Apple ID using my PC. My new Apple ID was verified both email and password. My Ipad air sync to the new Apple ID but my iphone wont sync. And everytime i try to change my Apple ID on my iphone it ask for password of the old Apple ID, but it keep saying incorrect ID and password. I cant delete or change because i dont know the password.

You need to reset the password for the old Apple ID.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5787
FYI - all apps, all paid and free apps include DRM protection which is tied to the Apple ID that was used to download the apps. Not possible to merge or transfer apps downloaded with one Apple ID to another.
This means in order to install an app update with an app that was downloaded with your old Apple ID, you will need to use that Apple ID and password.

Unable to Delete OLD (prior to 2009) Addresses from the Previous Recipients List using ANY Method

How do I delete OLD addresses in the "Previous Recipients List? I am unable to delete OLD addresses (last used years, 2007 & 2008) using the button "Remove From List" or clicking on the address when it is displayed in Mail & selecting "Remove from Previous Reciopients List."

Solved: When composing an email and beginning to type an email address, you are prompted with autofillins. There is a small x to the right of the name. If you wish to delete the autofillin, then click on the x and Yahoo will remove it from the options in the future.
