Choosing which email address shows when emailing

How do you select which email address appears when you click on 'write' in Apple Mail? I have 5 addresses but for some reason it has started choosing one that I do not use that often rather than my main usage one. I'm using Mavericks.

No, it's your reply to my solution.

How do I choose which email address to send a calendar invite from?

I use iCalendar for business. I don't want to send company calendar invites with my personal @.mac account. Years ago I had a Bberry and could choose which email address to send it from while creating a meeting in the calendar. Is this not possible with Apple Technology?

Open Mail app. Click where it says mail on the upper left corner of the screen, choose preferences choose accounts tab on the top then select the account you don't want anymore and click the - button at the bottom.

How to choose which one to use when using handoff if one has more than one phone with different network

I am using 2 iPhone with 2 different network. How to choose which phone to use when making a call.

Are you confirming your POP account is selected as the sending email account before the message is sent?
And regardless if the email is a new email or is replying to or forwarding an email received by the POP account and cofirming the POP acconut is selected as the sending email account, the message is sent by the Gmail account?
All message sent by the POP account are sent by the Gmail account?
If so, delete the Gmail account from your iPad and test if a message sent with your POP account which will be the only email account available with the iPad's Mail app is recieved from your POP account/address.
If not, something else is wrong or on play that has nothing to do with the iPad.

Email address shows when receiving message

I have heard from 3 people now when I sent them a message it shows my email address, not name from contacts. I went into my settings for messages and it says to use email address as my phone number shows error? I cannot change them in settings either?!?

Choosing which email address to be used in an alert?

I ical is a great organizational app. I have gone to this forum hoping to find someone else who has tried to do what I want to do, use this to alert another person via email. I "clicked" on the alarm catagory, "clicked" on the email choices, and I am unsure how to go to the all the address book choices. As all that is listed on the drop down menu is my email and I want to choose a new emailee. I have gone to both apps preferences, but no luck. You see I want to alert a "payee" that their bill to me is due.

i can assume by the lack of responses that no one came up with a solution

How do I keep the email address showing when i enter hotmail because every time a different user enters you have to completely log in again

before everyone's address was always on screen so you could easily log in, now there is only ever one address and I don't know what to do to keep the configuration as it was before

The website maybe using autocomplete=off to prevent Firefox from filling the name automatically.
You can remove autocomplete=off with a bookmarklet to test that.

Can you choose which emails are downloaded?

I had a lot of fun tonight at launch of iPhone in the UK at local Apple Store.
Had used the iPhone in US months ago - it's better than I remembered!
But I'm puzzled about apparent lack of one feature which is important for mail management. have I missed it or is it really absent? The 'genius' didn't seem to want to acknowledge its importance.
When I'm on the road I habitually pick up email on a Samsung phone. Not as slick as iPhone but for POP accounts the email client downloads email headers, then lets me select whether I want to download the body of the email.
For a cellphone this is very sensible. the header shows email size. if someone has sent me a 2MB picture say, I don't want to spend ages downloading it over a slow mobile connection.
But as far as I can tell the iPhone downloads entire emails from a selected POP account. Not too bad if you have wi-fi access, but very inconvenient when you don't even over EDGE.
How does iPhone handle this?
The other useful mail management on my current phone is ability to delete messages from either phone pnly or phone and server (at next connection). If I'm away for a few days I don't come back and have to download/scan scores of emails I've already deleted using the phone, but I can download emails I want to archive on my main machine. Again can iPhone do this i.e. delete selected emails from the server on a regular POP account?
I will probably get the iPhone even if its email client can't do this, but would be nice to know if it's possible.
Thanks in advance for advice

When you check for email, emails waiting in the queue are downloaded with the subject and the first 3 lines visible to read. You can adjust the number of visible lines and total number of emails to get (25 minimum is the default).
If you then decide to read one of those emails, it will then access your email account again and THEN download the rest, including attachments. You can abort the download at any time if too large.
If you deleting email from your iPhone doesn't necessarily delete it from the server. This will be based on your settings. For example, I choose to leave my emails on the server even though I have deleted them from my iPhone because I want the full email downloaded to my computer when I get back into the office.
Hope that helps!

How can i choose which email client safari uses to email web pages?

Right now it tries to use gmail (google chrome symbol). When i click on the arrow, next to the address bar, the google chrome symbol appears next to the option email this page. If selected, it then opens google chrome on the gmail sign in website.

Nevermind I found out that my email reader was changed to google chrome, within my mail preferences.

Is it possible to choose which template to use when exporting to word?

Hi, just wanted to know is it possible to have more than one word template and be able to choose from these templates when exporting a document to word. Another question, can we choose the print layout at the point of clicking print, instead of selecting a default one in the PLD beforehand? Thanks.
(Using SAP Business One 2005B PL41)
Edited by: Tan Gavin on Oct 8, 2008 10:14 AM

Hi Tan Gavin
The answer to both questions is unfortunately NO. The templates are linked to specific events or triggers in the system and cannot be changed or determined by any user. With the PLD the limitation is that if you want different layouts, the only way is to change default the whole time. But bear in mind that the default could be set by user, BP or both. This does allow the system to use a different layout for each user or specific BP's.
Kind regards

How do I choose which pages to print when using hp eprint

When using HP ePrint on my Ipad, to print to my HP Photosmart C4580 wireless printer, can I choose a range of pages to print? There doesn't appear to be an option for this.

Sure, have only the pages you want to print all set up in the attachment. Now send it to your ePrinter and only those will print out.

Choosing an email address on contacts with multiple addresses

Has anyone found a way, using Siri, to choose which email address to send to when a contact has multiple addresses? She asks which address would you like me to send the message to and I have found no way to verbally choose and address.

You cannot rename the labels in Outlook except by modifying the Contact form. Which, as a developer, I can do. However, my fear is that it won't be pushed to the iPhone since they already have unique identifiers now and they are only showing up on the iPhone as "email". While it may be that Exchange only labels them as email Android devices equate E-mail to Business Email and E-mail 2 as Home Email by default.
Maybe the next iterration of Siri will allows us to chose first, second, or third.
Thanks for trying!

In a Smart Group in AddressBook 6.1, how do I designate which email addresses I want to use?

In a Smart Group in AddressBook 6.1, how do I designate which email address I want to use for contacts who have more than one address when I'm mailing to the whole group? The "Edit Distribution List" is grayed out.

Thanks, Barney, but that's not really my question. The "Edit Distribution List" is in the Edit menu on my version, too, but I can't use it to edit the email addresses of contacts who are in Smart Groups. In the version of AddressBook I was using before I bought a new MacBook Pro and upgraded to Mac OSX Lion, I could use the "Edit Distribution List" to pick which email address I wanted to use for contacts in Smart Groups with more than one address. Apparently that isn't an option in Lion. The Help menus for AddressBook 6.1 even say that "Edit Distribution Lists" doesn't work for Smart Groups.
Okay. I get that. But some of my contacts have more than one email address, so how do I choose which email address I want Mail to use for these contacts when I send an email to a Smart Group they're in?

I have just upgraded to Mountain Lion and my signatures for my Mail is not showing up. I have the signatures inthe preference panes and selected for the email address, but when I make a new message, the signature shows as none and doesn't give me a choice

I have just upgraded to Mountain Lion and my signatures for my Mail are not showing up. I have the signatures inthe preference panes and selected for the email address, but when I make a new message, the signature shows as none and doesn't give me a choice. Yesterday, the signatures were stacking instead of switching to the one I wanted to choose.

I had this and fixed it.
I had upgraded to Mountain Lion and my signatures in Mail were fine. But then about a week later, I got a new computer and used Migration Assistant to copy my stuff to the new machine. Upon opening Mail, I had all the correct Signature information in the Preferences>Signatures window, but nothing worked.
After lots of hunting, I found the Signature Folder. It's in:
Yourusername>Library>Mail>V2>MailData>Signatures
Looking at my previous setup (which works) I saw in that folder two types of files: .webarchive and .siganture
Looking in my new machine's Signature folder, I saw only the .webarchive folders, not the .signature folders
Since this was literally a clone of my previous setup to a new machine, here's what I did:
1. Quit Mail
2. In Problem machine, go to
Yourusername>Library>Mail>V2>MailData>Signatures
3. Move the Signatures folder someplace safe, but out of the MailData folder
4. Get the Signatures Folder from the working install (like a backup) and copy it to the MailData folder on the problematic machine
5. Start Mail on the problem machine
This worked for me. I don't know why Migration Assistant didn't copy the full signature folder, but this fixed it. It worked perfectly partly because I had just backed up with Carbon Copy Cloner and the very next day set up the new machine. I don't know where Lion or earlier versions of mail stored signatures, but the absence of the .signature filetype seems to be the problem.
Hope this helps

I lost my address book when I installed Mountain Lion and have not been able to recover it. WHen I type in a name in an email the address shows up, so I know it is in there. How can I restore my address book?

I don't know how to do this. I typed the question in the bar above, but apparently need to type it again here. I lost my entire address book when I installed Mountain Lion and have been unable to recover it. I know the information is in there as when I type in someone's name in an email the address always shows up right away. How can I find the information for my contacts and restore my address book? Do I need to go to the Apple Store that is 2 hours away and have an expert help me or can I find out how to do it online for free myself?

The auto-complete in Mail addresses comes from two sources: (1) The "Previous Recipients" list, which can be viewed via Mail > Window > Previous Recipients. (2) Your Address Book (now called "Contacts").
If you did in fact lose your Address Book - are you sure you don't have "Contacts" in your Applications Folder? - It sounds like you are getting addresses from source (1). If you did in fact lose your Address Book (now called "Contacts" !!), you will have to restore it from a backup.

How do I change the email address that shows when I try to sign in to update apps

The email address for the iPad has to be changed -- cnnot log into app store

The email that shows when updating Apps is the Apple ID under which the App was purchased. Apps cannot be transferred between Apple IDs. The only way to change this is to delete the App and repurchase it under your correct Apple ID.
