Deleted Contact Keeps Reappearing (Yahoo)

I got married 3 months ago and changed my wife's name on my iphone from her maiden to our shared last named.
Ever since then, her maiden name continuously reappears as a contact. Whenever she calls me, the phone says "Emily F*** or Emily K**".
No matter how many times I delete her contact info on my iphone & in Yahoo Contacts, it inevitably reappears. I have deleted both versions of her contact info, then I synced. Then I enter just the correct name and contact info and then both versions end up reappearing.
Does anyone have a solution or should I just head to the Genius Bar?

Does anyone have an idea?

Removed contacts keep reappearing on my Contact li...

Using latest version 7.0.0.102 and removed contacts keep reappearing in my contact list. I have even 'hidden' them and moved them to a seperate folder to no avail, after a few days suddenly they are back in my main contact list.

Deleted emails keep reappearing-GoDaddy delay the cause.. How to relocate to gmail?

For 4 months my deleted emails keep reappearing 3-5 times. After 4 consultations with my web and mail host, GODaddy and 4 with Apple Geniuses and both blaming the other, An Apple trainer opined, and a GoDaddy supervisor Reluctlantly confirmed that there is a long delay in GoDaddy when I delete email in MAIL. Go Daddy sup admitted that they have had this problem for the same period I have been going crazy with it. He suggested that since they did not know when it would be fixed that I move my email accounts (not my web sites) from GoDaddy to Gmail, but not to do itmyself, or I might lose much! Apple genius does not wan to do it, nor does GoDaddy! Any suggestions?

Thank you, Ernie.
These are all IMAP. I see trash on the server and on MAIL. deletine Trash used to work from MAIL, but in last 4 months, if I want something to take effect, I work from the web mail of go daddy and MAIL gets the message.
So you suggest I go to Gmail and set up accounts ( I assume they will walk me through ) (starting from my current gmail acct that my android uses-- or start from scratch?) to receive email addressed to my current email addresses? Then by not transfering out of goDaddy, I won't lose lots of email and mail files, folders in the transition?
There is a discussion on this topic of GoDaddy delays, from 2010 and 2011. So I may not be alone with the problem now.
Best,
Gayle

Song appears in itunes, delete but keeps reappearing

song appears in itunes, delete but keeps reappearing. the song is youth from foxes downloaded from the itunes store for free , even though i delete it from either the ipod 5th generation itself or if i connect it to itunes and delete it from their every time i delete it , it will reappear in itunes if a resync. and theirs two copies of it idk why. i want to delete the song from itunes, i know the song will keep appearing on the ipod because of apples stupid idea trying to make me redownload it. the songs are both shaded in grey. solution plss

Best route here is to focus initially solely on the iTunes Library. Once it has all the Songs that you want, turn off iTunes Match, sign out of iTunes Store and restart the computer from cold.
Moving to the iPhone would suggest a restore and fresh link to the library post the following steps.
1. Sign in to iTunes Store;
2. Turn on iTunes Match - allow 3-step process to run to completion;
3. Make secure backup of library;
4. Force iPhone in to restore mode - hold down 'power on/off' with 'home key' for 10 seconds
5. Attach iPhone via USB to computer and follow 'restore' instructions in iTunes
6. Once complete synchronise with library as required
At this stage all required Songs should be on the iPhone - post iPhone back-up a good point to fully enable iTunes Match on the iPhone if required.

Mail deleted massages keep reappearing

I am a Mavericks operating & macbook user. I have noticed that every time I use Mail and delete unwanted messages, they keep reappearing again.
Is there a way to make Mac Mail is the Master and Yahoo/Gmail/Outlook is the slave, so that every action taken in Mail will be reflected in its relative mail box?
Regards,

Hello Joe.
What type of mail account is this (POP, IMAP, .Mac)?
Certain messages keep re-appearing in my inBox, even when I delete them.
You may be able to get rid of those messages in Mail doing Edit > Cut (⌘X) (for best results do it with one message or just a few at a time), but you should remove them from the server first if they’re still there.
Mail is only receiving some of the email messages sent to me.
Do you have any custom rules? It looks like Mail is downloading all the messages, but your rules are processing them in an unexpected way...
Open the Account Info window by choosing Get Info (⌘I) from the Action menu (gear icon) located below the mailbox list in the main Mail window. Does Mail display there the messages that it doesn’t download? Do they appear as already downloaded or as not downloaded yet (dot column)?

Help! My deleted contacts keep re-appearing...

Hi,
My brother gave me his BB 8900. I've deleted his contacts every way I know how, and his contacts keep re-appearing on the phone.
1. I've deleted the contacts through the Desktop software
2. I've a clean list of my contacts on Gmail and Yahoo address book for syncing.
3. I've deleted my bro's contacts on the back-up folder contacts.
4. I've no entries in my SIM Phone Book.
5. I set the Address Book Wireless Synchronization field to No.
I get to the point where everything looks clean on handheld and phone ... and 30 minutes later the unconnected phone has somehow restored the (600) deleted contacts into the address book
Any idea what I'm missing? Thanks.

Interesting. A clean start could help because I don't know whats causing it. You've done some good troubleshooting so far.
I recommend wiping the device so you can setup from scratch. This guarantees nothing from your brothers settings remain.

Deleted Files keep reappearing

I've tried everything - there are 12 files which after deleted and emptying trash - keep reappearing on my desktop
I've recreated the Trash Bin, ran Chkdsk, started in SAFE Mode and deleted, nothing. Any ideas on what is causing this and how to remedy?
thanks

Only have 1 account - that's mine and it is the administrator.
What are these files? (full name & extension?)
When were they created? (date & time?)
By the way - running a machine on just one admin account is a high-risk way of doing things. If something went wrong with this account you would have a huge problem. In these forums we deal with such issues on a daily basis. A spare admin account, fully
tested and documented, is as important as having a spare house key (and for much the same reason!).

Deleted emails keep reappearing, can anyone help?

In mail, highlight on the left your mailbox, then on the menu bar click mailbox, then rebuild. The deleted emails should be gone.

Apple Mail 2.1.3 (OS X 10.4.11) deleted message keeps reappearing

I sent a mail that exceeded the maximum size of the recipients mailbox. When the mail-delivery message came back, my system HD was full and the incoming mail could not be stored. After I got my Mac back running, the mail-delivery-error-message keeps reappearing – even after deletion.
When I delete the message in the inbox and in the trash, it reappears as soon as I click on "Inbox". If I open the message and click the "Delete Message" icon, it stays and appears in my trash as often as I clicked it. How can I get rid of that message?
Thanx.

If you know what you are doing it may be simplest to backup all emails and Mail settings and progressively remove Mail settings and files until you find the problem.
Make sure you do not delete more than you have to from the server.
Perhaps start by checking the server via web access to see that it looks OK at that end and does not have your large file stuck somewhere.

Deleted passwords keep reappearing!!!!

The Saved Passwords list of the Safari's Password & Autofill keeps getting repopulated after I delete them on my iPhone 6!!!
I tried everything from turning the Keychain on and off, resetting my iPhone's settings and resetting the iPhone altogether.
Nothing seems to work and its really frustrating, I did easily remove the credit card entry and it didn't reappear.
Please let me know how to get rid of the saved passwords so that they stay deleted and don't reappear.

This certainly is a security defect introduced after iCloud sync was introduced!!!!
i Have tried all of the following:
1. Removal of iCloud account from iPad. This process pro,puts for deleting synced keychain password and I did that
2. Removed device passcode and forced passowd wipe while doing that
3. Removed password manually from auto fill and password page
but nothing works !!!!
the passwords keep reappearing. The biggest threat is that all are visible in plain text to anyone who can access my iPad.
Apple seems to be stubborn and in mess.

Deleted shows keep reappearing

Every time my DVR resets or reboots, all shows that I have deleted since Jan 11 reappear. I keep deleting, and the same shows keep reappearing. I have never had his problem before, but it is happening daily since Jan 11 because my DVR reboots every night around 7:00 for some reason. Getting very annoying and Verizon rep's only comment was "that's strange"

Deleted mail keeps reappearing in my in box, apparentlt randomly

I am frequently receiving advice I have new mail only to find the new mail is in fact mail dating back some days or weeks. This may be 1 mail or multiple mails, perhaps up to 30 and is a real nuisance, Any advice most welcome, thanks. This only affecting Thunderbird, not Bell / Sympatico.

Deleted mail can reappear if the folder has not been compacted frequently.
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Thunderbird_:_Tips_:_Compacting_Folders
'' If you don't compact your folders regularly, performance can slow to a crawl, you can't store new messages anymore, start losing parts of messages or have deleted messages resurrected.''
Suggest you move all good emails out of Inbox to other suitable folders for organising.
Then delete all emails you do not want.
then right click on Inbox and select 'compact'.
Then empty the Deleted folder.
Also Empty and compact the Junk folder.

A deleted contact keeps popping up when I compose an email

I have deleted a contact on my bb and my outlook. Wheni compose an email the first two letters of his email pop up.
Exmaple. in the compose an email field I want to write an email to GD-George Dunn so i type GD and the email address of a deleted contact Gemma Dirosso ([email protected]) pops up first. I had deleted her on my bb and outlook yet only her email address pops up. So i cannot find her on my contacts, so by rights her email info should be gone but it isn't. so i cannot delete it as it is no where to be found on my bb and outlook
Any body have any ideas??

Deleted Contact Info Reappears when I create SMS

I replaced my friend's number on my contacts since he changed his number already. Problem is whenever I send him a message, his old number reappears together with the new one when I type his name on the "To" field. How do I solve this? My contacts are only backed up in iCloud. I have tried wiping all my contacts in Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendar>iCloud>Contacts>Delete from my phone. All my contacts are gone, then I turned back iCloud on again, my contacts were back, and the problem was still there. I checked my Contacts on iCloud, it only shows the new number.
Same thing happens for my old messages. Deleted messages appear on Spotlight Search and it's really bothering me. When I click the message, it just opens the Message App. Im afraid it's consuming my phone's memory. How do I solve this?
Thanks!

The only way to delete this information is to restore the iPhone as new, not from back up.

Deleted emails keep reappearing on iPhone

Ever since updating to iOS 4.2.1, I'm having a problem with deleted emails reappearing on my iPhone 3G.
I have deleted these emails a dozen times. They are also deleted from the server, so they're not being re-downloaded.
I have rebooted and reset the phone. I have deleted and re-created the email account. The emails keep coming back. I have about 25 of them now and they just won't go away, like zombies back from the dead.
My email is a POP account at comcast.net. (IMAP is apparently not available for this account.)
Any ideas on how to permanently expunge these deleted emails?

I too am losing my mind. Tried initial reboot, etc. Then last night restored and reloaded/synced. On my POP account (earthlink) I continue to get it repopulating every time I delete an email. My resetting everything effectively wiped out my accrued emails which was fine since I pick them up on my laptop or via web if need be. But the 4 new emails CANNOT STAY DELETED!
So restoring wasn't an effective option.
