Email: Warning Account Name Already Exists

The other day when I clicked on my mail app (not the yahoo mail app) I got the sign in screen. I clicked on Yahoo. Signed in and I keep getting this message "Warning: The acct name already exists." The app on my screen says I have 99+ emails but I can't check them. Help?

Yes, that didn't work.  I called Verizon Wireless and finally got it back up and running correctly.  Here are the steps:
1. make sure contacts are backed up through backup assistant (see contacts on your account)
2. power down
3. remove battery and card under battery (sim card?), replace battery and power on
4. pull up settings, SD and phone storage, Factory data reset, reset phone
5. follow prompts, power phone 
6. add mail accounts back
7. replace card under battery
8. power back
Everything appears and mail is back in business
I am so happy.  This has been so frustrating for at least a month now.  I should have called instead of visiting the store.

  • I want to delete my icloud-account from my iphone 5 and then register again, because I want to change my email-address/account name. What would be the steps to follow? How do I make sure I do not lose any information stored on/in my iphone 5?

    I want to delete my icloud-account from my iphone 5 and then register again, because I want to change my email-address/account name. What would be the steps to follow? How do I make sure I do not lose any information stored on/in my iphone 5?

    You would have to delete the existing iCloud account and create a wholly new one - you cannot change the @icloud.com email address of the one you already have.  To make a new one, you will also need an new AppleID as any AppleID can only have one iCloud account associated with it.
    Deleting the account will not delete anything off your device (if prompted for things like contacts, choose to keep them).  You will have to sync everything anew with the new account as you cannot move your sync'd content, your old backups or anything else from one iCloud account to another.  You will have to set up sync again and let it sync to the new account, and then make new backups to the new account as well.

  • HT5767 My mail all of a sudden would not allow me to delete messages in my inbox saying, "couldn't be copied to "Messages" because an item with the same name already exists." Found it duplicates the message I wanted deleted in trash.

    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and  Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

    hi Guys,
    need to create a mailbox for a tennant "service" but get this error
    This display name already exists. Please use a different display name
    any idea ?
    We have come across the same issue with the Service@ email account under tennant mode.and we've tried it under multiple domain names that we host..with the same resulting "display name already exists" error.
    The Suggestions above by Fiona do not work, and yield :
    [PS] C:\Windows\system32>Get-user -id service |FL
    The operation couldn't be performed because object 'service' couldn't be found on '<AD Domain Controller>'.
        + CategoryInfo          : NotSpecified: (:) [Get-Mailbox], ManagementObjectNotFoundException
        + FullyQualifiedErrorId : FC39465B,Microsoft.Exchange.Management.RecipientTasks.GetMailbox
    Yet... if we create another user and add Service@ as an alias it works .. we just cant create it as a primary user name.

  • Operation can't be completed because an item of same name already exists - Mavericks

    I am trying to copy a large file folder (of a large iTunes library of music files) from a WD Live NAS drive to a new AirPlay Time Capsule via Finder on my Retina MBP. Every time I try it, I get the same error "operation can't be completed because an item of the same name already exists."
    I have tried a number of the following solutions:
    1. I cleared my cache out as in this thread:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2231287?start=120&tstart=0
    2. I tried using the Terminal app, as in this thread:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/21786245#21786245
    3. I tried closing both Finder windows once I started the copy operation, as in this thread:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2231287?start=105&tstart=0
    4. I tried deleting/renaming all files that contained a ~ as in a thread I can't find right now.
    All of these things are not working. I was able to copy several other large file folders (mostly of videos) without a hitch. I can't figure it out. Can anyone assist?
    Many thanks...

    Yes, I had to format the 1TB to FAT before I use it.
    whoa there. why did you format the drive FAT? that's an obsolete windows drive format and OS X is known to have various issues with it. this may easily account for your problems. strongly suggest you reformat the drive mac os extended.
    "have you tried using the restore option within Disk Utility to copy the data back instead of doing it manually?"
    There's nothing on the 1TB to restore because I sent it in for warranty exchange. So its brand new, nothing in it.
    he was suggesting that you use the restore tab in disk utility to copy the 640GB drive to the new 1TB one. that's what I suggested too but I mentioned using superduper or CCCloner.
    but you really should reformat the drive first. the only reason to use FAT is if you want to use the drive from both mac and windows. but then you'll likely have to live with the quirks of FAT and OS X.

  • Operation can't be completed because an item of same name already exist

    Hi, my first post. I've search the net for similar problems but nothing exact.
    I have a Maxtor OneTouch 4 (1TB)that just returned cos I got it exchanged. While it was being exchanged, I used a Maxtor OneTouch (640GB). I had transferred everything from my 1TB to the 640GB.
    Now that the 1TB's back, I want to transfer everything back. But when I try to transfer anything from the 640GB to the 1TB, an error message appears saying "operation can't be completed because an item "(of same name)" already exist."
    After I click OK on the error message, only the folder gets copied over to the 1TB but NONE of its contents.
    This only happens when I transfer folders. If I were to transfer individual files, e.g a picture, it's successful.
    Things that do work:
    - transferring files and folders from computer to both HDDs
    - transferring files and folders from either HDDs to computer
    So the only problem is transfers between both HDDs.
    I read some thread that repairing permissions might help but when I enter Disk Utility, "Verify Disk permissions" or "Repair Disk Permissions" are both greyed out.
    Does anybody have experience with this problem? Please help, the 640GB is exploding!
    Thanks in advance!

  • How do i add a rescue email address to an already existing apple id? The only option it gives me, under the manage my apple id category, is an alternate email. I am trying to make my alternate email address my rescue email address.

    How do i add a rescue email address to an already existing apple id? The only option it gives me, under the manage my apple id category, is an alternate email. I am trying to make my alternate email address my rescue email address. I am new to this community thing.

    Note that the rescue email address is not on the "Name, ID and Email Address" page -- you need to click on "Password and Security" on the left side. Even after you do that, it may or may not be available. As noted in the following it is only available if you have 3 security questions and are not using 2-step verification: Manage your Apple ID primary, rescue, alternate, and notification email addresses

  • Folder name already exists error when activating feature

    HI,
    I am creating a document library and adding folders to it using elements.xml in VS 2012.
    First time deployment of the item works fine, the folder is created. But further deployment or activation of feature from site features is throwing the error "Folder name already exists".
    Below is the elements.xml of List Instance, which was modified to add the folders.
    <ListInstance Title="TestLibrary" OnQuickLaunch="FALSE" TemplateType="101" FeatureId="Guid" Url="Lists/TestLibrary" Description="TEST Library List Instance">
    <Data>
    <Rows>
    <Row>
    <Field Name="ContentTypeId">0x0120004F994A3C0FF76546A528DA0D4B515898</Field>
    <Field Name="FileLeafRef">Test_One</Field>
    <Field Name="Title">Test_One</Field>
    <Field Name="FSObjType">1</Field>

    <Field Name="FSObjType">1</Field>
    </Row>
    </Rows>
    </Data>
    </ListInstance>
    How to fix this?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you got “Folder name already exists error when activating feature”.
    I had used the following code snippet to create a folder within a document library, it didn’t throw errors when reactive the feature.
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <Elements xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/">
    <ListInstance Title="LibTest"
    OnQuickLaunch="TRUE"
    TemplateType="10000"
    Url="Lists/LibTest"
    Description="My Lib Instance">
    </ListInstance>
    <Module Url="Lists/LibTest/Folder1" />
    </Elements>
    http://shareden.blogspot.com/2012/11/creating-feature-with-image-library.html
    Also, when you redeploy the project, it will give you a dialog which would promote to delete the existed list or not.
    If you click the “Resove Automatically”, the visual studio would delete the existed list automatically, and create a new list.
    Thanks,

  • Problem "archive name already exists" Outlook 2007

    Dear All,
    I’m writing to you because I really need help with solving the problem with my MS Outlook 2007 with SP3.
    I’m using windows 7 64 bit. I’m using Exchange account.
     The problem is when my mailbox on exchange is almost full so I’m making manual autoarchive.
    From a few months I have problem with that matter because I have information “archive name already exists”.
    I can see the exact path to the archive folder.
    I can't create archive with the same name for example archive.pst, all the time during new archivisation I have to change the name of the archive file like: archive1, archive2, archive3…..  Now in my mailbox I have something like
    5 archivisation folders :(
     Can You help me please with that?
    Thank You in advance!

    I recommend that you post this in the Outlook Forum:  http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/outlook/threads

  • Device name already exists changed to

    A couple of months back I upgraded my SLES 10sp1 servers to SLES 10sp2 using ZLM. My ZLM server is running SLES 11 and version 7.3 of ZLM. My SLES 10sp2 servers are running the ZLM 7.3 client. When I look in ZCC under the Hot List it shows my main ZLM 7.3 SLES 11 server with a warning status for almost all my hosts. When I click on that to see what is going on the Event log states: Device name already existed, changed to MYSLES10HOSTNAME while attempting to register host: MYSLES10HOSTNAME I clear all these events and later on they are back. Sometimes the same ones sometimes others. I currently maintain about 200 servers using ZLM and the Event log has 44 devices with this message. What setting do I need to change or delete? Or better yet what do I need to do to correct this behavior?
    Thanks!

    This happens normally when you register one host against the zlm server, stop zmd, delete the deviceid and secret file, start zmd and register it again against the zlm server without deleting the existing device in the zlm web interface.
    What happens at this time is that the zlm client registers with the deviceid and the secret against the zlm server. In the web interface you see the hostname of it. If you open the details, you see the guid of the host which equals the deviceid.
    When the zlm client communicates with the zlm server it uses the deviceid and the secret to login and query the bundles, catalogs and policies assigned to it.
    So now when the zlm client is stopped, the files deleted, the zlm recreates them the next time it is started. After registering against the zlm server, it tries to login with the new deviceid and the new secret. There is already such a host entry, therefor it renames one and register with the new values again.
    Do you have maybe a cron job or something that deletes those files and restarts the zlm client ?

  • Cannot delete read mail. Keep getting the following message "926540.emlx" couldn't be copied to "Messages" because an item with the same name already exists.

    I am trying to free up room on my hard drive but keep getting the following message. “926540.emlx” couldn’t be copied to “Messages” because an item with the same name already exists. 926540.emix is the number given to the email I want to delete.

    Back up all data. Rebuild the mailbox. Try again to delete the message.

  • SPD 2010 - How to know if a file with a given name already exists in a document library

    Hi,
    I've created a workflow using SPD. One of the steps in there is changing the name of the document to a clean name. This workflow fails if a document with this same name already exists in my document library. Is there a way to check in a SPD workflow if
    a document with a given name already exists in my document library ?
    Marc Nemegeer

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to know if a file with a given name already exists in a document library.
    You can use a SharePoint Designer workflow to achive it.
    To test to see if a document exists, you need to use condition:
    If Current List:Name  equals  [%Current Item:Title%].docx
    Here is a similar thread for you to take a look at:

  • File name replaced with Tilde (~), name already exists error

    When exporting jpg files in Lightroom 4 I've recently had an issue with some of the files containing a tilde (~), the 43rd file in the series often gets it as well as a few others. So in the series one might be named 43-MA~1.jpg instead of the 43-Maegan-details.jpg that I originally named the file.
    When I've tried to rename these files from the finder I get the error "name already exists". If I rename it to something totally different it works but if I then try to rename it the original filename I wanted it gives me the error again or reverts to the name with the ~.
    I'm running 10.6.8, and the problem has been happening the past few weeks but I've never had the problem before. I can't figure out what is causing the problem and it's not every export but it's a huge hassle to try and rename the files.

    This is the one error message that I have gotten in years with Encore. In my case, I had created a Project to be used as a "template," and had done the layout, Imported the common Assets, and then used this as the basis for a 17 DVD set, just Importing the unique Assets to each. Everything went perfectly, until disc 15. Maybe I was sloppy, as I had just completed 14 such Projects that day, but when I went to Build, I got that error. I tried un-Linking and re-Linking Assets, and checked all Menus. Nothing - just that error. Flushed Media Cache, and only the error. I posted here, with the details and asking for ideas.
    In the meantime, I just grabbed my "template" Project and Imported those same, unique Assets. Used my altered Menus from bad Project and did my linking, exactly (or so I thought) as I had just done. This time, the Build was successful and # 15 thru 17 went without a hitch.
    I had Saved that bad Project, and several folk offered suggestions. I tried them all, but never could get it to Build. I always got that error. I finally gave up testing and chalked it up to OE on my part, but I never figured out what I had done wrong, as I really thought that it was by the numbers.
    Based on my experience, I would just start a new Project, being careful in the workflow. That was the only thing that worked for me.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
