Change name in mail

How can I change my name in icloud mail?

I don't think you can and keep the same iCloud account. But you can go your online iCloud mail account
and add an alias to your email account to whatever you want it to read and use that exclusively.
You can have up to 4 aliases to your primary iCloud mail account.

Please explain more fully.

How do I change the account name in Mail on the iPad?

I Am setting up my new iPad mini running iOS 8.1.
other her mail accounts I have set up show the account name as the email address but when I set up my iCloud account the account name simply says "icloud".
It is a bit confusing because there are other iCloud's mail accounts set up that just list it by email address.
Does anyone know know how to change the displayed account name in Mail?

Hi Gabe Hamrick,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
You can change the Description field of your iCloud email account so that it displays what you want. Follow the steps in the article below to get into you Mail settings. However, in step 3 instead of adding an account, you should already see your iCloud account showing in the Accounts section of the screen.
Add an email account on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201320
1. Tap Settings.
2. Scroll down and tap Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
3. Tap on your iCloud account. On the next screen, tap on your (name)@icloud.com email address to the right of the word Account. Change the Description field to whatever you want to display. Tap Done in the upper-right corner.
I hope this information helps ....

How to change my 'full name' in Mail on iPhone?

I use a me.com address and iCloud. I successfully changed my full name in Mail on my Mac, but won't show up on mail sent from phone.

Ah, after endless searching, this popped up in "More like this" right after I posted:
Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendar> Select the email account with the issue and go into the Account Info area. In the Name field enter your full name.
Looks like it has to be changed locally on the phone. Thanks!

Changing Last Name on Mail accounts

Recently remarried, and trying to change last name on Mail accounts. I have changed them in Contacts, however seem to have problems in sending mail.
Anyone have an idea of where I need to make all the changes?

Mail apparently can do this, but doesn’t provide support for it in the user interface:
Add unique names to .Mac email aliases
Add unique names to .Mac aliases via AppleScript
I believe the AppleScript in the second article is for .Mac accounts only. The first article was initially also meant for .Mac accounts only, but I believe that a similar procedure can be used with other account types as well — read the comments for additional info on this.
What I’d probably do is leave the Full Name field blank and the email address alone, though...

HT5621 I've changed my E.Mail and Apple ID but my account name is the old one - can'nt get rid of it . Please advise.

I've changed my E.Mail and Apple ID but my account name is still the old one - can'nt get rid of it .
Please advise.

Does Apple ID: Changing your Apple ID help?

Did osx change the outgoing name in mail and how do i change it back?

i cant figure out how change the name in mail that is displayed in the " to: and from:"
this is particutularly frustrationg because i entered the name i go by (sam) when i set up the imac and never used my legal name for email ect. at some point os x (i assume) changed it to my legal name which it probably obitaned from a creditcard payment.
i havent used my legal first name in a long time so as you can imagen this been a problem.
i never put that name in mail and now i cant change it,
please help!!!

What name are you using with your ISP? And what name are you using for your ISP's email? That is usually what is displayed in Mail. Take a look at your Mail preferences > Accounts:
Both my full name and email address are displayed as I had set up my account with my ISP (Centurylink).

So you want to change your primary mail but can't get past the password question?

Claudius,either you didn't read my post, or you jumped to conclusions. I had a skype account that was created using a microsoft account (NOT THE ACCOUNT I AM USING NOW). PURE MICROSOFT ACCOUNT NO OTHER ACCOUNT LINKING.I had to change the primary mail of that account.I was told "no can do" by skype support.I found that if I went to account settings and clicked on the link on the line below the one that said "MICROSOFT etc" (labeled something along the lines of "TV or Device") I got the opportunity to set the password of the "live:username" account (WHICH YOU COINCIDENTALLY HAVE TO DO IF YOU WANT TO USE SMART TVs ETC).Once that was done, I COULD SUCCESSFULLY DO WHAT SKYPE SUPPORT SAID WAS IMPOSSIBLE- I could change the primary mail address. once that was done, and NOT BEFORE, I linked the account to a facebook account as well, just to be sure I have more than one way to access the skype account. What caused you to get the impression that I was writing something else? furthermore this sentence - "The solution you described in your initial message isn't actually once since all the time you were operating on different account that weren't actually linked" does not make sense, I think you mis-edited it.and I need to point out that you are incorrect. I WAS NOT OPERATING ON DIFFERENT ACCOUNTS I WAS OPERATING ON ONE SKYPE ACCOUNT, THAT WAS CREATED USING A MICROSOFT ACCOUNT just like you say you recommend. I still don't know how you can misread my initial entry like that. If you have a better solution to my initial problem - changing the primary mail of a skype account created throuth either a microsoft account or a facebook account, Please write a sticky to explain how to do it, and please inform skype support that Yes it can be done, and this is the way it is done. So far my "lucky shot" seems to be the only way to do it.

Hi!I ran into the same problem as a lot of other people seem to have done. I am changing ISP and because of that I have to change my mail address from my 10 year old [e-mail removed for privacy and security] to something else, this time I choose to use an outlook.com address in the hope that I will be able to keep that a bit longer. last week I realized that my skype account had my old expiring address as the primary mail, and that the primary mail was the only mail that skype will use for communication with me - I already had 2 other mail addresses in my skype profile (outlook.com and gmail). The skype account was created last summer using my microsoft account, and the microsoft account is the only means I have for accessing the skype account. So I logged on and opended the profile page, went on to edit the info and marked my outlook mail as the primary, clicked save and got the password question. I entered the password I use for logging on (ie the microsoft account password), but was told that the password was wrong. I tried everything and some more things, I spent 40-50 minutes on a text chat with skype support, only to be told that it can't be done and that the skype account was hard tied to the mail address I had used when creating the account, which I found very strange as I had used my microsoft account. yes, when I created the skype account, the only mail I had connected to the microsoft account was my "[e-mail removed for privacy and security]" mail, but I have since then, without any problems, been able to create an outlook.com address, and have that added, added a gmail account, set the outlook.com as the primary for the microsoft account and remove the "[e-mail removed for privacy and security]" address from the microsoft account. no problem.The problem is actually worse as the mail account will be free for use after april 1, which means that a person claiming that mail address will risk getting extremely confusing mails regarding a skype account they don't have, they will have difficulties creating a skype account of their own, AND they can take over my skype account (as they are the owners of the mail address) and I won't be able to stop them. How is that for security Fortunately I spent 2 more hours and stumbled on the solution This is where a normal scam artist would ask you to click on a link to a web apge that would releive you of all your money, but I won't do that. so, what is going on when you want to change the primary email, why isn't your password accepted??? It turns out that when you create a skype account using your microsoft account (and I guess your facebook account), skype will actually create a "proper" skype user account as well, but they hide it from you, and you won't get a password set for it. It is the password for this "hidden" account you have to enter when you want to change the primary password It turns out that I was also unable to connect my facebook account to my skype account for the very same reason, but here it was more obvious, as I had to enter my skype username and passwor when connecting the accounts, and the microsoft account wasn't accepted there . so what do you need to do? well - those of you who have a smart tv (or some other device) that can't log on to skype using a microsoft account, have already done the work (provided you use that tv/device with skype) you log on to skype and open the account settings page, on the line below "microsoft account [email protected] unlink change microsoft password" you'll see a line saying "TV or Device" or something similar (I have no idea what the english text is) here you have a link you can click on where you will be prompted to enter the password for your "live:username" account. once you have done that you get instructions saying that for smart TVs etc, you enter "live:username" as the skye user and the newly created password as your password.The good news is that you now have 1) the identity of your skype user ("live:" and your name where the user name is the combined string "live:username" which in my case was "live:myname"); and 2) a password that is valid for your skype account. what I did next was open up the profile page, edit the profile, mark the outlook.com mail address asthe primary, click save and when prompted for the password, I entered the password I set in the previous step, and that's it, I now had a new primary mail (I got the confirmation mai sent to the new mail address right after I updated the info in skype). I also successfully removed my soon defunct mail address from the mail address list in my skype account, and I then connected my facebook account to my skype account (using live:myname ase the username and my shiny new password). So at the moment I have three different methods available to me when logging in to skype:- my microsoft account- my skype user (live:myname)- my facebook account.the ONLY thing to be aware of is that the name of the microsoft account, as presented on the account settings page in skype, still is my old [e-mail removed for privacy and security] mail address NOTE that this is a presentation issue only, someone thought that it was a good idea to save the original name of the microsoft account in the skype database and use that for presentation. It is NOT used when logging on, when you log on it will use the UID of you rmicrosoft account. if it disturbs you, you can always disconnect you rmicrosoft account from your skype account and reconnect it, and you should see the current mail address associated with the microsoft account. (this is safe to do because you have at least one other method to log on ) I hope that skype will amend their FAQ with this info. I did enter into a second chat with skype support, explaining what I díd to resolve the problem they failed to solve. so there it at least 2 people at skype support who know how to resolve the problem. -cheers,Anders

how can i change my icloud mail address.

You can't change the name of your @me.com or @icloud.com address, but you can set up an alias with a different name that will still deliver email to your iCloud inbox. See http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2622.

I have changed my e-mail address and therefore need to change my apple ID. When I change it to my new address it says it is already my rescue address and cannot be used. Any ideas how to change my rescue address?

To change the iCloud ID ("email address") you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use. When you do this you may find that the password for your old ID isn't accepted. If this should happen, and if your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, you need to temporarily recreate your old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

If the Inbox for this account only is revealed, is there any triangle beside it?
Ah, yes, I see! Silly me to be looking for Sent mail under "Sent"! Indeed, there's a disclosure triangle next to the account name under "Inbox", and wen you open it, it shows Drafts, Sent, spam, and Trash. The sent items are indeed there.
Mind you, my Dot Mac accounts show up normally, i.e., their sent mail goes under "Sent". Wish all IMAP accounts did that. It sure isn't logical to show sent mail inside an inbox...
But to answer your question: In addition to having the "Sent" folder for the account under "Inbox", I also have a folder for the account under "Sent". This folder disappears when I check the box to store messages on the server. There were emails in it (the ones I placed there myself). I have now moved those emails to the sent sub-folder under the account under "Inbox". Even with the "store on server" option UNchecked, the emails were instantly duplicated to the server, so that they were present both locally and remotely. I then checked the "store on server box"; this made the mailbox for the account under "Sent" vanish.
To summarize: things appear to work normally now, except that I find it very inconvenient to have to look in two separate "Sent" folders to find emails I've written.

Dynamic file name as mail attachment in receiver Mail Adapter?

Hi,
Can any one tell the possibility of attaching file as a mail attachment without using mail Package with dynamic filename.
Business requirement is to send error response as mail attachment with dynamic name.
Ex: Error_Response_20110802_13.24 where 20110802 is Date and next part represents time stamp.
File attachment name should change dynamically in Mail receiver Adapter. Thanks
Regards,

there is no standard way.
you will have to write a module to get this in place.
other ways are;

Daniel,
you (normaly) just have to :

FORTE_NS_ADDRESS
2) shutdown and restart forte environment
3) put the new values in the control panel of the client and run !

Objet : 1) Changing name and IP address of an AIX 4.2 Server 2)
Using NAT to reach forte
Hello Forte Users :
    I have 2 questions to make:
    1)
    I've installed a Forte Server Central Node (Release 3.0.F.2) in an
IBM RS/6000 with OS AIX 4.2
    (The name of the server is Name_1 and the IP address is
125.125.50.50 with mask 255.255.255.0)
    Nowadays we had to change the name and IP address of this server
lets say to Name_2 and 125.125.60.60 with mask 255.255.255.0.
    After that we try to find any reference to old name and IP address
in the forte directory and all of its subdirectories changing them to
the new ones.
    After these changes we found than forte could'nt start the nodemgr
server.
    We have too many reasons to avoid installing FORTE again.
    Does anybody know if I have to change anything more to make
nodemgr server work.
    2)
    The second question is about NAT (Network Address Translation).
    To reach a Forte Server Central Node from a Forte Client we have
to pass through a Firewall and NAT.
    We are researching and at this moment we can not reach the server
from the client, has anybody any suggestion to correctly configure
Forte (Client and Server) to use NAT between them.
    If anyone could help me I would be very pleased.
    Thank you very much in advance,
