Email showing as 'from' another account.

I have multiple emails accounts on my iPad. When I send an email from my Personal account -- and I verify it's correct in the 'from' field --- the email shows up as coming from my wife's email address (which used to be on my iPad, but I deleted it). Have verified the email address is correct in Setup. Can't seem to get around this. It works OK when I send from my Work email, just no personal.
This has been going on before iOS5 upgrade. Thanks!

If you removed her account I don't think this should matter but Go to Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars and under - Mail - go down to Default Account. See what mail account is set. Tap on the arrow and in the next screen make sure that your email account is selected in there. See if that works.
This setting is really for when you email a photos from the photos app or email a document from another app, but you can give it a try.
You can also try a reset and quitting the mail app and restarting.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Close/Quit apps. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus (-) sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

Help! FR find itune library from another account, not mine!

My Mac Pro has two accounts, and if I use FR to play music, it only shows playlist from another account, not mine! how can I fix it?

Well, after troubleshooting here in the Front Row forum for a year, I've never seen that problem from anyone else. That's why I don't think you're going to find much support here. AppleCare Support will charge you $49 (in the U.S.) to troubleshoot a software issue after 90 days. I'm not sure what the charge is in Canada. You could buy an AppleCare Protection Plan (you can anytime within the first year of purchase) and then get free telephone support for software issues, like this.

Trying to authorize my iTunes to play music from another account

I was trying to play music from another account in my iTunes. I got the message that my computer isn't authorized. I entered the email address and password of the account with which the music purchased and got another message that says "This computer is already authorized. Including this one, you have authorized 4 computers out of your available 5." Yet, I am still unable to play the music in my iTunes. Suggestions? Thanks.

There's a couple of ways to get through to the authorisation controls in the 11.0.x versions.
The control is still in the Store menu, but first (if you're using iTunes versions 11.0.x) you might need to bring up the menu bar to see the Store menu.
If you're using 11.0.x, click on the wee boxy icon up in the top-left corner of your iTunes to see the "Show Menu Bar" control, as per the following screenshot:
Then you'll find the control in the Store menu:
Alternatively, if you don't want to bring up the menu bar, it's still possible to get into the authorise controls via nested menus accessible from the wee boxy icon. Here's a screenshot of where to find them:

Previously purchased tab on iPad shows purchases from multiple accounts?

We share a home account across 2 iPads. On 1 iPad if you look at previously purchased apps, it shows apps from another old
iTunes account I had, but no longer use for current purchases.
If an iPad is signed in with one account, why is it showing previously downloaded apps from a different iTunes account?
I would think it would only show apps for the currently logged in id?
Only thing I can think of is the 1 iPad has an app that was previously purchased with the older account, and copied over via
Home sharing possibly.

To clarify, if I log into each apple account seperately in iTunes on the PC, the 1 application shows under previous purchased Apps on both accounts. BUT it was only purchased under 1 account.

I have deleted my photos but have icloud. when i log into icloud it doesnt give me an option to view these photos at all. my photo stream is only showing photos from another iphone in the house. i am unsure if i do a restore from back up if this will work

I have deleted my photos but have icloud. when i log into icloud it doesnt give me an option to view these photos at all. my photo stream is only showing photos from another iphone in the house. i am unsure if i do a restore from back up if this will work. i really dont want to lose these photos but i am very unsure of what to do to resolve. can anyone please help?
thank you

If you had Photo Stream enabled with your iCloud account settings on the iPhone, photos in the Camera Roll should have been transferred to your photo steam automatically when the iPhone was connected to an available wi-fi network.
Your photo stream is not available when logging in with your iCloud account with a browser on a computer.
Why were the photos in the Camera Roll deleted?
Photos/videos in the camera roll are included with your iPhones backup. If your iPhone's backup has not been updated since the photos were deleted from the camera roll, you can try restoring your iPhone from the backup.

Emails being sent from another address

Hello there
Hoping someone can help me. I just recently upgraded to an iPhone4 (Old I know), and I'm finding when sending an email from my default account (I have checked to ensure the "From" is from my default account), it is send and said it's from another account that is set up on my iPhone.
It is not a technical issue as all my settings are correct and I have confirmed this with my email carrier.
Has anyone come across this issue before and/or knows a solution?
Many thanks in advance.

I have further information on this problem.
It seems if I delete the other SMTP Server (the one where the email is automatically sending from) on the outgoing mail server, then I am unable to send an email from this account at all.
I hope what I'm saying makes sense.

Change Desktop background from another account ?

Hi Guys,
Just wondering if it's possible to change a desktop background from another account on the same machine.
I'm running 10.6.8, and there's no particular reason for doing this at present, but we do have a couple of work machines where the user has been restricted from making changes to the machine, and it'd be easier to do this from the administrator account.
Also, is it possible to change a desktop background via Apple's remote desktop?
Thanx in advance.

This same thing happens to me, and while not the end of the world, it is defintely annoying. Have you figured it out? Thanks!

I upgraded to ios6 on ipod touch and after I completed a sync on my PC but I suppose it did not sync, because now it will not restore from a back up and wants to restore from another account that I have saved. Can I some how restore from the apps?

I upgraded to ios6.1.3 on ipod touch and after I completed a sync on my PC but I suppose it did not sync, because now it will not restore from a back up and wants to restore from another account that I have saved. Can I some how restore the apps to avoid having to pay for them again and having to recreate settings?

As I said, the backup that iTunes makes does not include apps (and music) if those items where not in the iTunes library on the computer on which you restored they will not be on the iPod.

Please help me.

If the problem persists, you'll probably have to make another apple id, it wont take off any games or music or apps or anything you've bought it will all stay there, i have two apple id's and i don't have a problem with anything.

I just bought a new iMac. But it has apps from another account.

I'm a windows user who is recently interested in macs cuz they look pretty. After installing office, i went into the app store, only to find that i have new updates. so when i went to the updates tab. i found angry birds. but i didnt bought angry birds and when i tried to update it, it is from another account. how can this happen?

First thing you need to answer, is if you got this mac new or not!
If you got it from a previous owner, and he did not clean it for you, then it's normal that there is stuff on it already.
If you got it as brand new, then you should have had to create a user account the first time you turned it on.
If there was already a user account on it, then it's not new and you should return it and ask for a real new unit.

TS1389 how to authorize computer in itunes for the purchased from another account

how to authorize computer in itunes for the purchased from another account ??

Use that account's Apple ID and password; the procedure is otherwise the same as authorizing it for the first account. If the iTunes library contains protected content from more than five iTunes Store accounts, you may not be able to fully sync it.
