Edit or change the email label in contacts

I have an Ipad 2 up to date.
I notice that in some contacts I can change the label for emails or add a custom label where as others that field cannot be changed or edited.
Can anyone help
thanks
Chris

IMO - and this is only my opinion - what you are experiencing is another annoying little"quirk" that some of us are experiencing since updating to iOS 5. I have the same issue. I thought I actually had it narrowed down to when the feature works but I gave up caring long ago. I think - that the contacts that I created on my Mac still let me edit the title for the email addresses but I really can't remember now.
Others have discussed this issue with contacts on this site but it's been I while since I've seen someone less post about it. Maybe when Apple releases the next update, they will address this little "quirk".

  • Changing the email Content for the Contact Person Creation

    Dear All
    We are on SRM 7.0. We need to change he mail content that goes to the Contact Persons of Vendors. These contact Persons are created in SRM for bidding.
    How to change the email content?.
    Thanks in Advance.
    velu

    Hi,
    Pl. follow the following steps :-
    1. Create smartforms containing your own content to be sent to contact persons.
    2. Implement the BADI : BBP_OUTPUT_CHANGE_SF.
    3. There is one interface(method) in the above BADI e.g. :change_forms.  You have to call smart forms in this interface.
    I hope you may achieve your task by following the above steps.

  • HT1349 how do I change the email contacts I want to sink from a different email than the one listed on itunes?

    I am trying to sync my iphone and itunes is preset to an email account with no contact. I want to switch to a different email account to sync to but can't find a way to change the email already listed. Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Transferring email account settings via the iTunes sync/transfer process has nothing to do with syncing contacts direct with a supported address book app on your computer if this is what you are referring to.
    If you have an email account that supports syncing contacts over the air, you can manually create the email account with the iPhone's Mail app. This is supported with a Yahoo account, Gmail account, an Apple iCloud account, and with an Exchange account. A Hotmail account can now be accessed as an Exchange account with the iPhone's Mail app.

  • HT4859 I CHANGED THE EMAIL ON MY ITUNES AND IT IS NO LONGER BACKING UP BECAUSE IT WANTS THE OLD EMAIL, WHICH I NO LONGER HAVE ACCESS TOO.

    I changed the email to my itunes and now my cloud is stuck on the old email which I no longer have access.

    To change your iCloud account to a new Apple ID, go to Settings>iCloud on your phone and turn all data you are syncing with iCloud (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off.  When prompted choose to keep the data on your iPad.  (If you are syncing iWork documents with iCloud, also open your iWork apps and turn off iCloud syncing and choose to keep the documents on your phone.)  After everything is turned off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  Next, set up a new iCloud account using your other ID, then turn syncing for your data (contacts, etc.) back to On.  When prompted, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to your new account.
    This will not move your photo stream, however.  If you have photos in photo stream that aren't in your camera roll and you haven't backed up anywhere else you will need to save these before deleting the account.  To do this, open your photo stream album on your iPhone in the thumbnail view, tap Edit, tap all the photos to select them, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.  You can then delete the iCloud account and your photos will stay in your camera roll.

  • I would like to change the email for my Downloadhelper license

    Trying to get to support for Downloadhelper but no luck the forum site times out when you try to get to it. I am trying to change the email for my license for downloadhelper from [email protected] to [email protected]. It also seems that Downloadehelper does not work anymore once FF was upgraded to ver 36. I have noticed on the forums that there is a major issue with Downloadhelper and ver 36.

    If you know the answers to your security questions, then from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312 :
    Navigate to appleid.apple.com using your web browser.
    Click "Manage your account"
    When prompted, sign in using your Apple ID and password.
    Click Password & Security
    You'll be asked to answer 2 of your 3 security questions before you can make any modifications. If you are unable to remember your answers, you can choose to send an email to your rescue email to reset your security questions.
    After you've validated your identity by correctly answering your security questions, click Edit to the right of your rescue email address.
    Once you've finished editing your rescue email address, click the Save button directly below the email field.
    If you can't remember your answers and you don't have access to your current rescue email address then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.

  • How do I change the email address associated with my feed?

    I've decided I want to associate a different email address with my newly-submitted podcast feed, so I changed the email address that appears within my feed after I submitted it to iTunes. However, the "Your podcast has been approved" email went to the original email address.
    I looked at my podcast within iTunes to see which email address is associated with it there, but I don't see an email address anywhere.
    Might this just be a matter of cacheing that will resolve itself within a day or two? And if so, is there a way for me to confirm which email address is associated with my feed?
    Thank you,
    Adam
    Message was edited by: drwebstein

    You are confusing two different things here. You can if you wish include an email address in the feed for podcast visitors to contact you: it's carried in these tags:
    <itunes:owner>
    <itunes:name>YOUR NAME</itunes:name>
    <itunes:email>AN EMAIL ADDRESS FOR VISITORS (OPTIONAL)</itunes:email>
    </itunes:owner>
    In the iTunes Store you have an email address registered which the Store will use to contact you to confirm purchases, podcast acceptance and so on. This doesn't have anything to do with the address in the feed and doesn't have to be the same.
    To change this, click on 'Account' at right in the Store page. In the Account Options page which opens click 'Edit' on the 'Apple ID' line and a pane will open with a field to change the associated email address. (Your Apple ID probably takes the form of an email address but this is just a text string used as an ID and you can't change it - it doesn't have to be the same as the registered email address.)

  • I am trying to change the email address associated with my existing account to free up my university email address for use in obtaining Creative Cloud.

    I am trying to change the email address associated with my existing account to free up my university email address for use in obtaining Creative Cloud.  Every time I go to the account settings of my existing account (which currently uses my university email, as I set it up years ago and had no idea it'd eventually cause problems), I enter a different email to use for that account but I continuously receive an error message saying "account changes cannot be saved."  It makes me think that it's because the email isn't verified (funny, it actually is verified since it has been the alternate email on the old account for years), but when I click the "send verification email" nothing happens (that is, no email is sent to that other email address).
    Anyway, my university is now requiring that faculty create new accounts using our university email addresses in order to register/use Creative Cloud.  Am I able to delete my old account, or can anyone help me actually change the email address associated with my old account without getting a "changes can't be saved" error?

  • How do you change the email destination when you forgot your security question?

    Hey! First of all, Thank you for noticing my post! Haha
    Alright.. Soo.. This Apple ID was made a long time ago since my iPhone 5 was bought. I was planning to buy an ingame item but Vertification was needed so I was like yeah ok sure. XD Then it started giving me Security questions.
    I'm extremely sure I forgot both of the answers to my Security Questions so I decided to change it.
    I Went to Appleid.apple.com, logged in successfully, pressed the forgot the answer and it was said to sent to a YAHOO Email.
    I used to have this Yahoo Email but I forgot about it since Yahoo decided to deactivate due to inactivement so now I can't change my security answers so I can't proceed with my purchase.
    I was wondering if there's a way to change the email ( yahoo ) to my current gmail since I'm way more active on it and I
    can access it easier..?

  • I've recently changed the email address on my i tunes account. The emai address on my icloud account hasn't changed, so i can't buy additional storage. It also won't let me delete my existing icloud acc.

    I've recently changed the email address on my i tunes account. The emai address on my icloud account hasn't changed, so i can't buy additional storage. It also won't let me delete my existing icloud acc.

    To change the iCloud ID on your phone, first save your photo stream photos to your camera roll (if not already there) by opening the my photo stream album, tapping Edit, tap the photo thumbnails, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll.  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the changed ID.  This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your phone, but not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account, your iCloud data will reappear on your phone when you sign back in.

  • How can I change my account on icloud without losing all my data and suppressing the former account. I just need to change the email address... TKS

    I changed my email address, how can I keep my icloud data without cancelling my former account...?

    Hey there Fonz111,
    It sounds like you have a new email address you would like to use to replace the email address you are currently using for your Apple ID, without losing any of the info you have in the account. You can update the email address with this article named:
    Apple ID: Changing your Apple ID
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5621
    To change your Apple ID, follow these steps:
    Go to My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com), click "Manage your Apple ID", and sign in.
    If you have two-step verification turned on, you'll be asked to send a verification code to the trusted device associated with your Apple ID. If you are unable to receive messages at your trusted device, follow the guidelines for what to do if you can't sign in with two-step verification.
    In the "Apple ID and Primary Email Address section," click Edit.
    Enter the email address you want to use, then click Save Changes. Apple will send a verification email to that address.
    Open the email from Apple, then click Verify Now in the email.
    When the My Apple ID page opens, sign in with your renamed Apple ID.
    If you have two-step verification turned on, you'll be asked to send a verification code to the trusted device associated with your Apple ID.
    After you see a message indicating that verification is complete, remember to update all of the stores and services that you use with your Apple ID.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

  • How can i change the email address for apple id and icloud?, how can i change the email address for apple id and icloud?

    i had to change the email address to my apple id. now when ever i try to use imessage or the icloud, it wont let me because it is using the old email address. i cant change it on my phone and idk what to do on my computer!

    If the old ID is yours, and if your new ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.
