Deleting a particular email address that automatically comes up when you start to type a name

I accidently typed an email address with a .ca that should have been a .com ...
Now, every timeI start typing that email address in the To: field of an email, both come up (.com & .ca) & sometimes I accidently select ithe wrong one (& it bounces back)
Is there anyway to get that wrong one out of the stored auto memory so that when I start typing that name, that wrong one no longer comes up?
Please note: it is NOT in my Contact list incorrectly.  It was just a typo-o once that I'm forever paying the price for
TIA

Hello towngirl_04,
Currently the BlackBerry Z10 smartphone does not have the option to disable recent contacts.
Thanks.

  • In Mail, how to delete an email address that automatically comes up as a ch

    I have deleted one email address from Address Book, and it is gone in the address book. However when I start an email to this person, that deleted email address still shows up as a choice below the current email address of this person. How do I delete the old email address from this location?
    Thanks to someone who can answer this

    Eva, I found where the previous recipient information is actually stored, unfortunately I don't have a solution yet though.
    Mail's "previous recipients" list is actually stored in ~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook/AddressBook.data. However, as the name suggests this is actually where all your Address Book information is stored. Deleting the file AddressBook.data got rid of my entire Previous Recipients list, unfortunately it deleted my entire Address Book as well. Dragging the file back to the Application Support folder caused every Address Book entry to be duplicated... so I don't recommend this strategy
    I reverted to an Address Book backup to set things right again.
    So it would appear your mystery addresses are probably in the AddressBook.data file, unfortunately I still don't know how to excise the ones you don't want.

  • How do I delete an iCloud email address that was created under my Apple ID?

    I have an Apple ID that is used mostly for iTunes.  My son has an iPod Touch and wanted to create an iCloud email address to use on his iPod.  We created an iCloud email address through my Apple ID, not realizing that now, every time he sends an email, it arrives "from" my name, not his, as the address is attached to my Apple ID and therefore through my account information.  We would like to delete his iCloud email address completely so he can open his own personal Apple ID and recreate his iCloud email address through his own new Apple account.  We deleted the account from his iPod and also deleted it as a second email address on my AppleID account information.  Yet, despite all this, the email address seems to remain attached to my account.  Apple Support website and iCloud support did not give us any ideas.  Help!

    PS:  
    since I posted this question (above), I have read many other questions posted and it seems I am not alone.  Seems Apple will not allow people to delete an iCloud email address completely from existence!  You can delete it from devices but not from the Apple ID account.  What a disappointment, really.  In my opinion, the "user-friendly" Apple is really frustrating people who simply want to be able to manage their email addresses for various, valid reasons.  Email addresses that have been created should be allowed to be deleted by the creator!  Other email services allow this! 
    One idea I have that may help others in my situation:  Rather than delete my son's iCloud email address from my Apple ID account, so that his emails come from HIS name not MINE, I might try to just change the name on my AppleID account from mine to his.  He can create a new password too.  Then, in the future, if I want to recreate my own Apple ID, I will. 

  • How do I delete an old email address that keeps coming up and keeping me from upgrading my apps?

    I have a new computer and a new email address. I also have an iPod touch and now when I want to upgrade apps or purchase a new app the old instead of the new email address comes up and askes me the password for it.   It is already discontinued and I can't get rid of it. I haven't been able to upgrade my apps since the new email address.   Can someone help?  Please?

    Settings > Store > Apple ID > Sign Out. Sign in with the correct credentials.
    If that does not work, then chances are you bought the apps using an old Apple ID, and if this is the case, that is the ONLY ID that can be used to update the apps.

  • I want to know why I can't clear my history because whenever I open the view history menu, it goes to the library/bookmark menu. Essentially I just want to delete the websites that come up when I start to type in the url box

    I want to delete the websites that come up when I type in something in the URL box. I also want to be able to clear my history. I cannot do this because whenever I want to view the history it takes me to the book marks menu

    The Library handles both the History and the Bookmarks.
    Don't you see the History item in the left pane that shows the full tree ?
    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Viewing_the_browsing_history_-_Firefox

  • The history sidebar does not automatically come up when I start Firefox.

    I always had the history sidebar set to appear when Firefox booted. Now I have to manually open it each time. Why?

    Delete localstore.rdf or rename the file to localstore.rdf.sav in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder] to test if the file is corrupted.<br />
    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Corrupt_localstore.rdf<br />
    (caution: do not delete the localstore.rdf file in the Firefox program installation folder)<br />
    <br />
    Note:<br />
    Deleting the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/localstore.rdf localstore.rdf] will reset the customizations of the toolbars to the defaults.<br />
    You can rename "localstore.rdf" to "localstore.rdf.sav" to test if that solves it.<br />
    Then you can restore the customization by copying "localstore.rdf.sav" to "localstore.rdf" if it didn't work.<br />

  • Why is Mail asking me for the name of an smtp server for an email address that doesn't exist?

    I've migrated from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion on a new Mac, but in trying to use Mail on ML, it keeps asking me for the name of an smtp server for an email address that's never existed. The addy has my user name correct, but the server part of the address doesn't exist, or at least I've never used an email address with that provider. On ML there's no plist file for Mail, so nothing to delete there. What else can I do to get Mail working? The only other option I have is to abandon Mail as being crippled and useless, and use Postbox, which for it's price (US$9.95) is an attractive option. OTOH, I've paid for Mail after all, so it really ought to work. Any clues as to what I can do to stop its nonsensical behaviour? How do I file a bug report?
    TIA.

    (Go to your Finder "Go" menu hold the option key to choose "Library", since the ~/Library is hidden on ML)

  • How to delete my old email address and install the new one on an HP 4480 all in one.

    my HP 4480 uses my old email address to send scan to email.I need to delete the old email address and install my new one

    des7931,
    You should be able to go to your software on your computer and click on the >Scanner Actions section.
    Then click on>Scan to E-Mail Wizard
    This should bring up a screen to edit, change, or delete the stored email addresses for scan to email.
    Let us know if you don't see this or still have problems.

  • When I sync my iPhone 5 to Outlook 2010, the email addresses that I have listed as Email 1 for any given contact in my iPhone will be automatically moved to Email 3 in the Outlook file. Is there a way to fix this?

    When I sync my iPhone 5 to Outlook 2010, the email addresses that I have listed as Email 1 for any given contact in my iPhone will be automatically moved to Email 3 in the Outlook file. Is there a way to fix this?

    iCloud email supports 'plus' addressing. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Email_address#Address_tags
    So your friend could just add '+research' to the username part of your email address, and you setup a rule at icloud.com to put all emails sent to that address into a particular folder.
    For example:
    [email protected]
    There's no way to do it without rules on the server though.

  • HT201441 How do I update my apple ID for find my iphone when it is linked to an old deleted email address that is not recoverable

    I recently changed my apple ID after I deleted my old email address which is no longer recoverable. I cannot get the find my iphone app to work. When I log in to try and change my apple id to the current one, or delete the account, it asks me for my password to the old email (apple id). I have no idea how to change this to be current. The password for my old apple id will not work and I am going in circles. When I log into the app and use my current apple id it does not locate any of my devices. They all say they are offline but are not. Any suggestions or help on how to unlink my old apple id to this app??

    Hello Fatboy896,
    You may need to temporarily change your Apple ID back, sign out of iCloud on your device, then revert the change to your Apple ID.
    Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
    Go to Settings > iCloud. Complete these steps only if the Find My [Device] setting is turned on:
    Scroll down and tap Delete Account, then tap Delete to confirm.
    Tap “Keep on My [Device]” or “Delete from My [Device].” In either case, your data remains in iCloud and will be updated on your device when you sign in to iCloud again.
    Enter the password for your previous Apple ID.
    Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
    Return to Settings > iCloud and sign in with your new Apple ID.

  • How do I delete an email address that cannot be found in my contacts app

    An unknown email address always pops up when I try to select a recipient 
    That email address cannot be found anywhere in the contacts app when I try to get it deleted.
    It is an invalid address, as when I sent out a testing email, it was bounced as delivery failed.
    Is there a way to delete it ?
    Thank you.

    No there is no way to delete it. The addresses that the mail app "remembers" have nothing to do with what is in the Contacts App. If you mistakenly typed an incorrect email address at one time in the mail app - it is going to continue to come up as a suggestion from now on. There is no way to remove those short of restoring the iPad as a new device.

  • I tried to erase some of the email addresses that i have emailed  in the past that i no longer use. I went to window and all my email to addresses were deleted-can i get them back?

    I tried to erase some of the email addresses that i no longer email to - i went to window to delete some and ALL of them were deleted . How do i get the addresses back?
    Thank you sooooo much!

    Go to Mail Preferences>Accounts, click the '+' button below the list of accounts and insert the settings, username and password as instructed. Some account types can be set up automatically as soon as Mail knows the emails address (because the server settings are built in), in other cases you will have to get them from your ISP.

    No, "My Number" was not listed in my Phone menu, I had to manually type it it.  Is there a way for that number to automatically be listed in that "My Number" spot?  Would that maybe have something to do with my phone number not being listed as an option in the "Send and Receive" spot under messaging???
