Can't get rid of 2nd smtp account

I only want to send from my Gmail account. I have deleted my Prodigy.net in the server list. But when I go go compose an email it still gives me a choice of sending from Prodigy (first), then a drop-down arrow to send from Gmail. How do I remove the Prodigy SMTP?

Can't get rid of old smtp option

I have changed ISP. Therefore, my smtp server is different, and I have changed it under Accounts, and have edited my listings of smtp servers to delete the server for the former ISP. Nonetheless, whenever I send a mail message, the defunct smtp server is listed (usually as the default) in the selection for the outgoing mail. How do I get rid of that listing?
There is no Help item for this, and no one seems to know where that information is stored. Is it on a plist somewhere? If you know, please be specific.
Incidentally, does it not seem that when an smtp is deleted from the list, it should get lost, and not keep popping up again?

You should be able to view the contents of com.apple.mail.plist in human readable form with Property List Editor, which is included with the Developer tools, or with one of the third-party property list editors available out there, such as Pref Setter or PlistEdit Pro.
Anyway, if you cannot get rid of that setting by normal means, you may re-create the preferences file as follows:
1. If you have a .Mac account and .Mac synchronization of Mail data is enabled either in Mail > Preferences > General or in System Preferences > .Mac, disable it before proceeding.
2. Quit Mail if it’s running.
3. Make a backup copy of the ~/Library/Mail folder, just in case something goes wrong while trying to solve the problem. You can do this in the Finder by dragging the folder to the Desktop while holding the Option (Alt) key down, for example. This is where all your mail is locally stored.
4. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Preferences/. Locate com.apple.mail.plist and move it to the Desktop (to be deleted if this fixes the problem).
5. Open Mail. You’ll have to set up your non-.Mac accounts from scratch all over again. If given the option to import existing mailboxes or something like that, don’t. Just enter the account information and Mail will automagically rediscover the data in ~/Library/Mail/ when done.
6. You’ll have to re-configure most of your settings in Mail > Preferences. For spam-related security reasons, the first thing you should do is go to Preferences > Viewing and disable Display remote images in HTML messages if it’s enabled.
7. You may also need to re-install or re-enable any Mail plug-ins you have installed for Mail to recognize them.
8. As a side effect of re-creating com.apple.mail.plist, Mail might rename Outbox (which is where messages waiting to be sent are stored) to Delivered. The name of that mailbox is actually a misnomer, as it would contain messages (if any) that couldn’t be delivered for some reason. You can delete that mailbox if you wish.
9. If the problem is fixed now and .Mac synchronization of Mail data was enabled at the beginning, enable it again, go to System Preferences > .Mac > Advanced, click Reset Sync Data, and choose the appropriate options to reset the Mail data stored on the .Mac server with the data locally stored on the computer, i.e. sync data must flow from the computer to the .Mac server.
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the folder path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the folder path there.

How can I get rid of my icloud account

appointments in my calendar only show up when I am connected with my Icloud account, If I am logged out I am not able to add new appointments in my calender.
A lot of stupid questions when I am logging off
As far as I am concerned ICloud is a a pain in the *** and I want to get rid of it asap.

Your computer will automatically connect and disconnect from iCloud as it needs to, while it remains logged in to the account.
You should not log-out of iCloud in System Preferences on your Mac when shutting your computer down, or at any other time, as this will prompt you to remove the iCloud data from your computer (which you don't want).
Just leave iCloud signed in in System Preferences and forget about it.
If you need to change any of your preferences you'd need to be logged in anyway.
The only reasons to ever log out of iCloud are for troubleshooting purposes, or if you ever decide you never want to use iCloud again.

I can't get rid of Inactive Internet Accounts

Under System Preferences -> Internet Accounts I have two Inactive accounts that will not go away. I can highlight them and click the ( - ) button at the bottom, and they will go away for about 10 seconds, but then they reappear.
A screen shot is here: http://imgur.com/MaToSzr
Some additional details:
Through the Internet Accounts panel, I can log in to one of them at a time, and that's actually what I would like in the long run, but there's always at least one inactive ghost sitting there.
If I change my Apple ID to use the inactive one, then I can log into that one, but now the other one becomes the ghost.
Even if I make one them an alternate Apple ID, I can't log into it through the Internet Accounts panel; it says I'm using the wrong password.
My thinking is that if I could find where these reside on the hard drive, I could wipe them and start over fresh. Anyone have any ideas on what's causing this and how I can fix it?
Thanks in advance.

After screwing around with it for a while, I finally set the outlook.com e-mail address as the primary e-mail address for the problem Apple ID and went ahead and signed in to that. For whatever reason, the yahoo.com e-mail address didn't re-appear as a ghost so I was as content as I could be considering my need for order. I let it run like that for a day, syncing everything, getting comfortable, and then I went to my Contacts app and found there was an iCloud group that I could not remove. When I went to menu -> Contacts / Preferences and selectedAccounts, there were probably a hundred Inactive accounts associated with the problem Apple ID.
So now I went back into System Preferences / Internet Accounts and tried to uncheck the Contacts sync for the problem Apple ID, but it just kept re-checking itself. So I re-removed the problem Apple ID again. It wasn't reappearing after 10 seconds like it usually did, but I figured that was just a matter of time. Now that I knew there were a 100 ghost address books, I set out to remove them all.
I navigated to /Users/yourname/Library/Application Support/AddressBook/Sources where I found all of the ghost address books. Each one has it's one folder and in each unique folder is aConfiguration.plist file that has the associated e-mail account in the text somewhere. I went through each Configuration.plist file and for every one that had the problem Apple ID associated with it, I deleted it's parent folder. I closed and re-started theContacts app and all of the 100 ghost accounts were gone. Also, during the 30+ minutes it took me to delete all those, the ghost account never re-appeared in System Preferences / Internet Accounts.
My theory is that those 100 or so inactive Address books kept re-populating the Internet Accounts in System Preferences.

Can't get rid of users mail account

Server OS 10.3.3
I have a user whos mail account became corrupt. As there wasn't really that much there to worry about, I deleted his user account. I made sure that his folder under /var/spool/imap/usrs/ was gone as well as deleting his actual user folder off of the volume. I then shut down, and restarted the server.
I then recreated his user using the same short name and password he had before. The result is the exact same problem showing up. All of my other users work fine, and I tried creating a new user with a different short name and that works fine also.
Where am I missing something to delete that will let me recreate the user as he was before?
Thank you
Chris

Can't get rid of duplicate email accounts itunes imports from outlook

Hey everybody,
iTunes imports my email account information from Outlook and for some reason it finds duplicate email accounts. I only have one .pst file which only has one of each email account attached to it but iTunes finds duplicates.
So in iTunes, when I tick one of a duplicate account and click apply the other duplicate will tick itself.
I have no idea what is going on and I'm tempted to reinstall outlook, itunes, delete my pst file, restore my iPhone and just start all over again!
But I really don't want to do that.

Have the same problem. Sometimes end up with in excess of 10 duplicated calendars (they show as "all mobileme calendars" but do not have the individual calendars listed) on my iphone although the correct calendars only appear once on both mobileme and Mac. Have never had sync turned on in itunes.
A tiresome workaround to delete these from the phone is to go into settings/mail,contacts,calendar/your mobileme account and turn calendars off. Say yes to delete calendar on iphone. When this is finished turn calendars back on, then exit and open the calendar. One duplicate should have been removed. Repeat ad infinitum.
Problem is the duplicates keep coming back (even without connecting to the Mac). Anyone with ideas for a permanent solution?

I can't seem to find an app that costs my available balance. iTunes said I need to spend it ALL before I can change stores. This means I cannot totally change stores.... Hopeless.

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.
iPad

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!

Can't get rid of account icon photo in mail header area

How can I get rid of the thumbnail photo icon in the mail header area when I send an e-mail in Mail?
It is one of the supplied icons that is in system preferences for "accounts", to distinguish my account from my wife's on our iMac G5 (10.4.10). I recently only selected this icon....the boxer dog....but there was nothing in that area before when I used the generic sillohuete as my account log-in identifier.
Basically, I don't want to be sending e-mails with a dog's photo....as much as I like dogs.
I have read how to ADD a custom photo in .Mac preferences/profile but, I didn't see how to get rid of one and I did not consciously choose to add the photo that is there now.....it just appeared after I changed it in System Preferences/Accounts. I understand that it might appear in iChat, but, I am not/wasn't using iChat.

Those photos don't actually get sent. They are a "feature" of Mail. You probably have a "Me" card in your address book? Get rid of the picture there, and it should get rid of the picture in the header region of your emails as displayed in Mail.app. But, like I said, those don't actually get sent, anyways. Got Windoze at work? Send an email to yourself at your work email address -- you'll see -- no boxer dog. But, please pay a visit to http://www.apple.com/macosx/feedback/ and let them know what you think of this feature.

If you want to change countries and can't spend it then you can try contacting iTunes support and ask them if they can remove the balance so that you can do so : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
