Apple Support Communities email notifications preferences not responding

Last night I accidentally reset my email preferences to receive all posts to this discussion group.  I quickly changed it, but the emails have been flooding in ever since.  I've gone back to my profile email preferences several times now to remove ALL notifications and Saved my changes but the system is not responding.  What else can I do???  Yikes

After posting this I found Ronda Wilson's June 16, 2011 response to Enver Masud stating that you must turn off email notifications in two places, the Actions box on upper right of each page, as well as the profile settings.  I thought I recalled changing the Actions preferences last night, but apparently that was the problem.  All is apparently resolved now.

  • How to turn off receiving apple support communities emails

    how to turn off receiving apple support communities emails on imac and ipad?

    In addition ,you can  go to Your Stuff - Profile- Manage Email Notifications (in the upper right hand Actions box) - either check individual threads to remove or click in the top box which will check all the threads and then click on Remove Email Notifications.
    Also check the tutorial for managing email subscriptions
    You might also make sure that you haven't subscribed to one of the communities by mistake. 
    Go to the community that you are receiving the emails from and the same box called "Actions" will appear there just like it does next to the individual question.  Make sure that you are not reciveing email notifications for that community.  Probably the community  where you asked your question.  Typically that is what causes people to get 100's of email notifications. I think that this is not included in the tutorial so a lot of people miss it.

  • How is it possible to change my Apple Support Communities email?

    As of today (Octobor 2011) I've started receiving lots of emails from Apple Support Community. Normally I'd direct such mail to my Gmail a/c, but my Apple a/c is associated with my business address.
    It doesn't seem that Apple Support Communities offers a way to supply a preferred email for forum notifications (I've clicked through the various profile forms available).
    Similar questions - https://discussions.apple.com/message/16523661 and https://discussions.apple.com/message/16515796, https://discussions.apple.com/message/15288686, oh look there's a big list to the right too. Hmm.
    How do we change the email that ASC will send to?

    Thanks, that fixed it for me. (I'd click "Correct Answer", but it disappeared when I clicked "Helpful Answer". That's a whole other UI discussion!)
    I think it's unfortunate that the forum mails are tied to the Apple ID, but I was delighted to find that in this case I had two Apple IDs (an ancient one from the launch of .Mac, and one I've used for iTunes purchases), so I wasn't required to set the same email for iTunes signin and forum emails.
    Systems which predicate identity on a single email account are not well designed for an environment where the bulk of email users suffer email fatigue and many mitigate the same through multiple email accounts.

  • My Apple support communities email address is wrong!

    Hi,
    I have a very old email address assigned to my Apple ID that I no longer have access to. My main Apple ID is a gmail one, that I can get to, but the email address in my support profile, and therefore the email address that iCloud sends a verification email to, is for a company I no longer work for and have no way of getting to.
    How can I change my profile email address to be the same as my Apple ID?
    |\/|

    Finally found the answer.  Iknew it had to be simple, it was just difficult to find it!
    Go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and sign in.Click the "Manage your account" link.
    On the right hand side, click the "Edit" link in the "Apple ID and Primary Email Address" area.
    Change your email address and click "Save changes"

  • Stop Apple Support Communities mailing?

    Hello.
    I want to know how to stop receiving emails each time there is a new message in the thread I posted on. I've switched off all the notifications, and yet I still receive 20-30 messages each day, not being able to do anything about it (not even cancelling my Apple Support Communities account, which seems not possible).
    Thank you very much.

    Click here for the instructions on stopping the emails.

  • How can I change my Apple Support Communities Name?

    How can I change my Apple Support Communities Name? I want to change it because I made it a long time ago and want a different name. I want to start using Apple Support Communities a lot more and start helping people, But I want a different name.

    It is possible he was incorrect.
    > When you signed up you were not given the opportunity to create an alias? I find that hard to believe given the number of people who have joined since that have there own alias. Apple assigned xdcdx to you?
    Yes, back on 2007 I chose xdcdx.
    Forward to 2011: I change the email address of my Apple ID to my current email address.
    I login to Apple Support Communities (which I had not logged in to since 2007) and to my surprise I see this nickname that I almost didn't remember using here.
    For me, it's irrational that I am able to change the main email address of my Apple ID (is there any piece of information more important than that?), but not this little username on this subpar forum system (subpar because of the web design/engineering, I don't mean to offend all the people here which are always quite helpful).
    I upgrade to iCloud, and my email address gets hardcoded to my Apple ID. That's good, because I want this email address. In that case, they make sure to warn you that you had to chose an email address as an Apple ID for iCloud. That was not the case in this forums.
    > In the link that you provided Tuttle did a better job than I did as to the difficulty factor. Not sure why you were linking it.
    >
    > You don't have to move to a new company to have new software or a new system.
    >
    > How many million participants does StackOverflow have? Size matters.
    How many million participants have these forums?
    At least you do not seem to disagree with me that these forum are subpar compared to the usual Apple perfectionism level (see iCloud nice web user interface, for another fine example). This thing still looks like a forum from 2007.
    > Yes on an extremely limited basis Apple has made the change for longtime users (only two that I know of) with one of those a request for security reasons. That does not mean it is easy.
    I still am not convinced that it is technically that difficult. I think it just a policy on part of Apple to avoid banal username change requests.
    In part, I am not more active in this forums because I do not want my words to be associated to this nickname, becayse it is used on internet by tons of other people for other stuff, as a Google result will show.
    Anyway, thanks for your words. I'll keep looking from time to time for the username change feature, because I do want to contribute to these forums.

  • I created an Apple ID using my ISP Email when I registered at the Store/Apple Support Communities/iTunes/Face Time and it does not work in iChat. Why Not ?

    Question:-
    I created an Apple ID using my ISP Email when I registered at the Store/Apple Support Communities/iTunes/Face Time or other portal and it does not work in iChat. Why Not ?
    Answer:-
    For a Name to work in iChat it has to be an Valid AIM screen Name.
    Only Apple IDs from the @mac.com ending names registered here  and the Mobileme (@Me.com ending) names are Valid with the AIM service as well as being Apple IDs
    (I am still working on info about registering with iCloud at the moment but if this does give you an @Me.com email it may well be a valid AIM name as well)
    NOTES:-
    The @mac.com page works by linking an external (Non Apple) email with a @mac.com name.
    This External Email cannot be one linked to an Existing Apple ID (you have to use a second email or register at AIM )
    The options at AIM are to use your existing email or create new name and link the existing only for Password recovery
    MobileMe (@me.com ending names) were valid Emails addresses, Apple IDs AND a Valid AIM Screen Name
    @mac.com names look like emails but are only Apple IDs and iChat/AIM Valid Screen Names.
    The AIM registration page seems to be pushing you to register [email protected] This is relatively new and I have not followed through the pages to find out if it a valid AIM email (Previously you could register a name without an @whatever.com suffix)

    Question:-
    So I have my current [email protected] email in iChat as I thought as I had linked that to an Apple ID it was a Valid iChat Name.  It keeps coming up with a UserName or Password Invalid message.  What do I do next ?
    Answer:-
    Open iChat
    Go to the Menu under the iChat name in the Menu Bar and then Preferences and then Accounts in the new window.
    Commonly written as iChat > Preferences > Accounts as directions/actions to take.
    If it displays with a Yellow running name in the list you have a choice.
    Either register it at AIM (I would use a different password to the ISP Login) and then change the password only in iChat  (It may take you to confirm any Confirmation email from AIM first) in iChat > Preferences > Accounts
    Or you register a new Name at AIM (Or at @mac.com) and enter that (details below)
    If you have a Blue Globe name  (@mac.com) that will not Login the chances are that it the password that is the issue.
    Apple lets you create longer passwords than can be used with the AIM Servers.
    Change the Password at iForgot to no more than 16 characters.
    Then change the password in iChat as details above.
    Adding a new Account/Screen Name in iChat (that is valid with the AIM servers)
    Open iChat if not launched.
    Go to iChat Menu > Preferences > Accounts
    Click the Add ( + )  Button at the bottom of the list.
    Choose in the top item drop down either @Mac.com or AIM depending on what you registered
    Add the name (with @mac.com the software will add the @mac.com bit)
    Add in the password.  (If you don't add it now iChat will ask you each time you open it)
    Click Done.
    The Buddy List should open (New Window)
    The Accounts part of the Preferences should now have the new name and you should be looking at the details.
    You can add something in the Description line which will then title the Buddy List (Useful when you have two or more names) and make it show up as that in the iChat Menu > Accounts and the Window Menu of iChat when logged in.
    You can then highlight any other Account/Screen Name you don't want to use and use the Minus ( - ) Button to delete it.

  • How to Prevent Apple Support Communities from Sending Me Emails?

    Hi,
    How I can I prevent the Apple Support Communities website / tool from sending me emails?
    I have disabled all emails in my profile settings (since about six months):
    Still,  Apple Support Communities keep sending me emails in increasing frequency:
    (It is the same account / username / email, I have triple checked that.)
    What options other than marking Apple as as spammer do I have left?
    Cheers

    Hi,
    Thank you – that (hopefully) resolves the issue!
    Note, that I came to Edit Preferences not through my Profile, but through the link in the "update emails" itself.
    The link in the emails (see screeshot) reads: You are receiving this email from Apple Support Communities. You can change your email preferences in your Apple Support Communities Profile.
    And the link leads to the "Edit Preferences" page (the "Manage Email Notifications" page is not visible / linked from "Edit Preferences")
    According to common "unsubscribe" practices in emails, I would expect that an "unsubscribe"-type of link leads me to a page where I can unsubscribe from the type of email I just received (and not unsusbcribe from 'additional potential future' emails or whatever you would call it in that case).
    Hence, this "unsubscribe" link in the email should either go to the Profile page, or the Manage Email Notifications (where I can actualy unsusbcribe), NOT to Edit Preferences.
    Hope, someone from Apple reads the above...
    ( Personally, I think the idea to split between past and future threads is a bad design in the first place )
    Daniel

  • Do not want to receive e-mails from Apple Support Communities

    Do not want to receive e-mails from Apple Support Communities
    Please help me

    I have this bookmarked as well from another post that gives detailed instructions on how to stop the emails. From here down is a copy and paste from that discussion ....
    Actually there are three places to look
    Anyway first click on your name to get to your homepage/profile. At the top there are three tabs one of which is Notifications, that's number one,. Next look at the right side of the page at the boxActions in there click Manage Email Notifications. Finally click  Edit Preferences in the action box and click on Email Notification Preferences
    I think that covers it all.

  • How do I stop emails from apple support communities

    almost a year ago I turned to apple support communities for a Q. Now a year later long after the problem has since been resolved, I am still getting very annoying updates.  I have tried logging in and changing my preferences, but that did not stop the emails.  I tried bouncing them back...didn't work.  I tried turning to apple "contact us"  but that is not easy without coming here first...Now I fear I may be just starting a new list of emails, but here we go...STOP EMAILING ME!

    The Email preferences are not the problem, they only control what will happen they have no affect on what is happening now.
    You can identify the source of the email,  the community or thread, in the email. Go to that thread or community and turn off the email notification from there.
    If you can'tt identify the particular thread or community from the email follow the instructions in the link King_Penguin posted.
