Changing name associated with iphone user

I went through a name change last year and got an iphone in January. The bill, the name of the phone, my email, my apple ID - all have my correct and new last name. However, when I send out emails on the phone or when I download a new app - the name that gets used is my old last name. I have tried looking in all sorts of areas on the phone as to where this info is coming from - and I cant figure it out!
-Please help!

Thanks for the tip! I would have done that right now but i deleted him off my contact list since i thought it might have somehow fixed the problem but its still registering as my friend.

  • Change name associated with my mac account

    The name associated with my mac account is presently showing as "First Last" when the main account is used for e-mail.  I would like to change it to "The Last Names" to connote that this address goes to the family in general.  Is there any way to change the display name?  I have tried in iCloud browser mail preferences, user accounts system preferences, and have no luck.

    By that you mean you log into the iCloud.com website?    Or are you using an email client like Outlook or Thunderbird?
    If you log into iCloud.com in your web browse, What name Appears at the top right corner when in Mail?

  • Wrong Name Associated With iPhone

    Hey guys,
    I just recently used the new Maps app on my iPhone 4S (iOS 7) to text somebody my location when I noticed the name that came up on the link/picture is wrong. My name is Ryan and my last name begins with an S, and since I also have a friend on my contacts list with the same first name (Ryan) and last letter of last name (S) the phone somehow thinks that that individual is me. I also noticed that next to my friends name in the contacts list it says "me". I have no idea how to fix this! Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  • 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.

  • How do i change the name associated with my icloud

    how do i change the name associated with my icloud

    If you are trying to change the iCloud ID to another ID, go to System Preferences>iCloud, sign out, then sign back in with the ID you want to use.
    If you are trying to change the name of your existing iCloud ID and not trying to change to a different ID, you can change the name of the ID as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5621.  After doing so, you'll need to sign out of the exising ID, then sign back in using the changed ID.

  • 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 do I change the first name associated with a developer account?

    How do I change the name on my developer account. I now have my discussion ID tied in with developer account, and I would like to change the name associated with my developer account. There is a field to change my first name on the discussion board, but there seems to be no option to change the first or last name associated with a developer account.

  • HT204053 change my name associated with me account?

    Email question - how do i change the name associated with my email account

    If you mean the bit that comes before the @me.com, you can't, other than by creating a new account: but you can create up to three email 'aliases' which are additional addresses (not accounts) which deliver into the same inbox as the main address: indeed it's better to give out alias addresses than the main address since they can be changed quite easily.

  • How do I change the names associated with numbers on my bill

    I have multiple numbers on my bill that have the wrong names associated with them.  I have tried calling *611 only to wait and then be disconnected. I am the account owner  and am unable to locate where to correct the information.

    Online, in My Verizon / View Usage / Minutes / Breakdown of Recent Activity / Current Call Log for Line / Select a Line, a log of calls incoming and outgoing since the last billing date are shown. For years, I would be able to click on the blue telephone number and a popup box would show up to Add/Update Nick Name. I would type in a name, for example, Mom and then click on Add/Update and the name would then replace the number in the listing. As of two months ago, I can still do this EXCEPT the name will NOT replace the number! This is so irritating as I have been assning names to the numbers for years for ease of search and identifying the calls. I have call ed Customer Servcie at least htree times on this issue. I have tried to Add/Edit Nick Name in two odfferent browsers (Internet Explorer as well as Firefox) and I have tried it on two dofferent laptops in two diofferent wireless networks. So I know it is NOT an issue with my hardware or networks. The issue is on Verizon's end. I am puzzled that others have not complained. Maybe I am the only doofud that likes to assign names to the numbers? But I would be most grateful if someone within the Community or Verizon's Customer Servcie can resolve this issue once and for all!!!!!!!!!!!!

    That's where MS wants me to get my computing needs from in future and I  will always be able to retrieve it in future but what about the $$$$$ I have  spent on software, hardware and applications prior to now???

    That's crap - This is a clean brand spanker install of Win7 and there was  nothing b4 I put the oem drivers from Toshiba back on.
    I looked at dozens of support pages and forum blogs and tried for hours to  get a copy to download - including incognito and other logins but because my  default PC name is also my MS Windows live ID the same error was repeated.
    I keep away from the non MS sites for these things and with good reason -  there were heaps of similar users with the same issue or very close to it that  had downloaded from a supposed MS copy from eValue or digital river etc and the  next
    thing was total corruption of the OS.
    EVENTUALLY I found a LIVE MS chat on a support site in the US and she gave  me a link to a slightly older version which will need updating and some reg edit  changes but so far, so good.
    The point is - what a crock !
    I should be able to just keep all my software, drivers, updates, service  packs, and versions that I have upgraded in the MS store.
    If Microsoft aren't going to support XP or Office 2003 and eventually 2007,  vista & Windows7 not far behind??? then that's still no excuse for them to  put these restrictions and limits when I OWN my copy of the software!!

  • Need to know schema name and table name associated with a column-URGENT

    Hi folks,
    I need to know the schema name and the table name associated with a column. Though jdbc has the api to getTableName and getSchemaName, some database vendor like oracle does return empty upon call of mentioned methods. I found that oracle driver does not support that ……
    Can any one give me the solution? It is urgent. Or do you suggest any third pary jdbc driver which can provide those?
    Thanks
    Angelina

    Angelina,
    Your question has been discussed several times previously in this forum. Search this forum's archives for "getTableName". Oracle JDBC driver does not implement this (because "it is not feasible" -- according to Oracle).
    First of all, I would suggest that you could probably change your application's logic so that you would not need this functionality (but I guess that is not feasible either, right :-)
    Alternatively, you could try querying the Oracle database data dictionary.
    Good Luck,
    Avi.

  • CUP 5.3 is coming back with all risks associated with a user

    HI, i know this has probably come up in the past but i'm not finding it anywhere in the forum.  we are having a problem with CUP 5.3 provisioning as it's bringing up all risks associated with a user rather than the new ones for the role being requested.  this is especially aggravating for roles that do not have a conflict.  i'm thinking this might be a very simple answer but i'm not finding it anywhere.
    thanks
    ryan

    Ryan,
    Excuse me for the link. the problem was because a 'P' at the end
    This is the correct one: Did CUP risk analysis change with SP7?
    And, as per my knodelge, There's no way to show only the "new risks" in CUP risk analysis.
    If you want to use GRC succesfully, first you have to "get clean". Check here (Note 1593056 - Best Practices for Remediation of
    Segregation of Duties risk):
    The Risk Analysis and Remediation (RAR) application is part of the "Get Clean" methodology which is at the core of GRC Access Control. The first step of any Access Control project should be to "Get Clean" of any segregation of duties violations through the use of RAR. Once clean, Compliant User Provisioning, Enterprise Role Management and SuperUser Privilege Management are tools used to "Stay Clean".
    If you've already identified the risk, mitigate them. This is the best practise. I undertand your problem, but until you finish the "clean procedure" you should use an alternative workflow for CUP.
    Cheers,
    Diego.
