Delete contact with wrong email address

I added a contact to the address but misspelled the address. I left out one letter. I change to the correct address in address book but the misspelled address still comes up as the preferred when I compose mail. How do I get rid of the bogus address?

Just thought I'd let you know your answer helped me solve MY problem; I wanted to delete obsolete e-mail addresses that were popping up as suggestions when composing new messages. Mail's Help offered no answer so I searched the forum and found your response.
Thanks for posting! Sometimes you can help more than one person!

  • When I add a contact with multiple email addresses to an email, how do I get the email to send to both addresses?

    I want to send out an email to one of the groups in my address book, but when I add the group to my email only the first email address for each contact is added.  How would I make it so Mac always adds all of a contacts email addresses to the email.

    I look at it like this, it was a solution to my problem. There is obviously something wrong with the new version. When everyone starts complaining, and some genius figures out the fix, then I will worry about the upgrade. Until then, I am fine with running 4.0. I have to disagree with you though. 6.0 is a downgrade for sure. There is a lot to be desired compared to this version. Who wants price gong, and screwed up emails. Not me. The problem is out there, and now someone needs to work on the bug fixes on this BETA version.

  • Need to add contact with 2 email addresses

    I have a contact in my address book for whom I need to add 2 email addresses in the same field. I know I can add multiple addresses, but that gets confusing for this contact, because I need to send every email to him at both addresses. I tried adding both addresses in the same field, separated by both a comma and a semicolon, and when I tried to sent the message Mail told me it was an invalid address. Is there any way to do this?

    There is no reason why you should not be able to enter both addresses in the Address Book as two separate addresses on the same contact card (e.g. "home" and "work") and when typing in the To: field of a Mail message, start entering as one address at a time. If the addresses exist in Address Book or previous recipients list, each will "quick fill". After first is entered (as a "bubbled" address), enter a comma then start entering second address. If either address is not in Address Book or previous recipient list, separate each entry with comma and spacebar while typing.
    If launching Address Book as a helper application from within the Mail application, single-click each email address (not the name) and either drag each, one at a time, to the To: field or click the To: button in Address book helper app. Repeat with other address. You can't snag 'em both at once.
    I just tried all of the above so these methods work here.

  • Purchased with wrong email address

    Hi Folks, wondering if anyone has had this problem. I recently purchased the download of Premier Elements 11. However, I entered an incorrect email address and consequently have no confirmation of purchase or activation key. Having paid through paypal I contacted them after adobe advised that that is what I do. Howver Paypal hav told me that they only can resolve desputes where an item is tangable, not downloaded software. Paypal have referred me back to Adobe, yet I can never get in touch with anyone over the phone. My last hold time was over an hour before I gave up. I've paid for a product that I cannot use. Any suggestions?

    Movieman,
    I'd go to the Adobe Store UK, Web site, as they should also offer a Live Chat - at least the Adobe Store US does. I have used that for about four questions in the last few years, and it has worked fine. Though in some contacts, I did not get the answer that I wanted, I still got quick responses. Not sure if they can help you, but rather than hold, I would give it a go.
    Good luck, and if they ARE able to help you, please update us,
    Hunt

  • VIP selection will not work on contact with multiple email addresses

    Trying to add more people to my VIP list. When selecting a name that has multiple email addresses, I select the address I want added and selection will not "stick" or accept that contact to VIP list.
    Help?

    Hiya!
     Well first off... I'm baffled that you succeeded in setting up personal email without a data plan.
    You need a data plan to access the BIS network which allows you web browsing (off wifi), email, BBM and the like.

  • How to select Contacts with identical email addresses in BB Calendar

    This might seem odd, but here is my situation. The physiotherapy clinic that I visit uses a general delivery email address for all staff, therefore I have the same email address for my physiotherapist and my massage therapist. When I enter an appointment into BB Calendar and try to select the name of the correct therapist as an attendee Calendar automatically inserts the one whose name sorts first alphabetically. Is there a workaround for this behaviout?
    Thanks, Frowie

    Hi Boris,
    The easiest way to get emails automatically sent to the same person with multiple email accounts is to duplicate the person in your Address Book and insert the secondary email address(es)
    Copy and Paste within the same group saves time.
    Or you can as you mention, manually add the other address.
    Good Luck,
    John

  • Setting up one contact with multiple email addresses-i.e Family & Friends

  • Help with deleting Apple ID, wrong email address when signing up... :S

    I tried to create a new Apple ID... but stupidly made a typo in my email, and I put my credit card info in it... any way I can delete it? When I try to sign in, it says I need verification, but I can't since I put @gmail.cm rather than @gmail.com..help?

    If I understand correctly now, if you have 3 Apple ID's - you will have to sign in to the App Store every time with the correct Apple ID for each app that you want to update. The apps are always tied to the ID that they were purchased with - so you need to enter the ID and the password in each instance.
    Go back to Settings>Store>Apple ID and sign in and out as needed. You can also try signing in and out of the account right in the App Store app. Go to the featured tab, swipe down to the bottom and tap on the Apple ID in there.
    Am I understanding correctly now or am I still missing the boat?

  • Have a wrong email address which keeps popping up as a suggestion rather than the correct one which is in my contacts.  How can I delete this?  iPhone doesn't allow me to get to it to delete it like I can in Outlook.

    I'm very glad that helped!
    It's good you looked in the Manual first. Certainly not everyone does that.
    With Apple products, I've found that not everything is completely documented, but sometimes if you try something that seems like it should work, it actually does work.
    That's how I personally learned about this feature.
    Enjoy your Apple gear!

    my apple id is wrong email address on i pod i can download as it comes up with right email but to update wrong email how do i delete wrong email

    You have to go to Settings>Store and log out of one account and log into the other account.  If you have updates available for apps that were purchased from more than one account, you have to update the apps individually until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.

  • I accidentally created an iCloud account using the wrong email address for my username - I already have an iCloud account with a different email address username. Is there any way I can merge these accounts?

    I just upgraded my MacBook from OS X 10.6.8 to Mountain Lion so that I could stream from my other devices (iPhone and iPad) to my MacBook.  After making it through the upgrade process, I realized that I used the wrong email address for my iCloud username when starting up on the MacBook.  My iPhone, iPad, and iTunes are under my Hotmail email address and I accidently used my Gmail email address for the MacBook.  Is there any way I can merge these two icloud accounts together? I tried changing my account information to add the other email address, but wasn't allowed because another account was using the name (duh).  If I can't merge them, how could I change the MacBook from the Gmail address to the Hotmail address so that all my devices are on the same icloud account?  It'd be nice if I could keep the free 5GB of storage that comes with my purchase of the software, but I'd rather lose the storage than not be able to stream.

    To change accounts on your Mac, go to System Preferences, sign out of the current account, then sign into the new account.  When you sign out of the current account it will delete synced data from your Mac.  Assuming your data (such as contacts, calendars, etc.) is in the other iCloud account, it will be synced to your Mac when you sign into this account.

  • My original Apple ID is associated with an email address that I no longer have access to. How do I reset the system to recognize my new email address as my primary point of contact and erase the other one?

    My original Apple ID is associated with an email address that I no longer have access to. How do I reset the system to recognize my new email address as my primary point of contact and erase the other one?

    If when you go to icloud.com and sign in with your current iCloud ID you see all your iCloud data there, you can safely sign out of the iCloud account on your Mac and choose Delete at all the prompts, then sign back in with the current ID.  This only deletes the data from your Mac, not from iCloud.  Your iCloud data will reappear on your Mac when you sign back in after a brief delay as it redownloads.  If you have automatically imported your photo stream photos to your iPhoto library you won't lose them either (if you haven't, save them to your library first).
    Again, only do this if when you go to icloud.com with your current ID you see your iCloud data there.

  • Got a iphone set the apple id n it was the wrong email address now i can't verifie it how do i delete and start over

    got a iphone set the apple id n it was the wrong email address now i can't verifie it how do i delete and start over

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    When you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.

  • HT5622 When my daughter got her first iphone we set it up with my email address, she now has her own email & new iphone.  I want to use my email address for my icloud, can I delete the content  from the icloud account and continue to use my email?

    When my daughter got her first iphone we set it up with my email address, she now has her own email & new iphone.  I want to use my email address for my icloud, can I delete the content from the icloud account and continue to use my email?

    Yes, but be sure she is on a separate iCloud account with a separate ID before deleting anything.  Be sure there is nothing that you want to keep on your device too.  When you delete the data from iCloud it will be deleted from all devices signed into the account.  Then you can delete the data from the existing account by doing the following:
    To delete the contacts, go to iCloud.com from your computer, log into your iCloud account and open Contacts, click on All Contacts on the left, to the right click on any single contact to select it, click on the Actions (gear shaped) icon at the bottom left and choose Select All, then press the Delete key on your keyboard.
    For Calendars, open the calendar on icloud.com, click Edit on the bottom left, then tap the minus sign to the right of each calendar to delete it.
    For Notes, open notes on icloud.com, click on each note on the left, then click Delete at the top to delete it.
    For Reminders, open reminders on icloud.com, click on each reminder and press your Delete key to delete it.
    For Mail, open your mail on icloud.com, click each folder on the left (such as your inbox), click on a single message to the right, press Control-A on your keyboard to select them all, then press your Delete key.  Repeat this for each of your mail folders except Trash.  When finished, click on the actions (gear-shaped) icon on the bottom left and select Empty Trash.
    If you also want to delete your iCloud backups you can go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage on your device, tap the name of your device under Backups, then tap Delete Backup.
