Exchange Email using the wrong username by default

Hi, I recently setup our new imac for the family to use. One log in (my name) and then i set up my wifes hotmail on the same login. After the kids took over and had all their stuff we changed to multi user logins. On my login I deleted my wifes hotmail and replaced with my hotmail and also my exchange email however it would not connect as it defaults everytime back to my wifes name and not mine. I change it and then restart to see if it will hold but it doesn't. getting frustrated. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks

  • IPhone now sends emails using the wrong Exchange server

    I have 2 ActiveSync exchange accounts setup on my iPhone 4S, Gmail and Hotmail.  I have had this setup for awhile, and all of a sudden messages sent with a from: address of gmail.com is being sent by Hotmail.  The message appears in my Hotmail outbox, and headers reveal that it is being sent from hotmail on behalf of gmail.  This was never a problem in the past.  The default account is set to Gmail, and there is no SMTP account since it is Exchange-based.
    Thanks.

    I have the exact same issue reported here.  I have deleted all my mail account and re-added them.  The problem persists.  It does not seem to matter in what order I add the accounts, the messages always are sent from the live.com Exchange account, even if the message shows it is being sent from my work email.  If I delete the live.com account, things work just fine, but as soon as I add it back in, all mail routes through it.  I can see messages that should have been sent through my work Exchange server in the sent items on live.com.  This seems like a very bad bug in IOS...

  • I accidentally created an iCloud account using the wrong email address for my username - I already have an iCloud account with a different email address username. Is there any way I can merge these accounts?

    I just upgraded my MacBook from OS X 10.6.8 to Mountain Lion so that I could stream from my other devices (iPhone and iPad) to my MacBook.  After making it through the upgrade process, I realized that I used the wrong email address for my iCloud username when starting up on the MacBook.  My iPhone, iPad, and iTunes are under my Hotmail email address and I accidently used my Gmail email address for the MacBook.  Is there any way I can merge these two icloud accounts together? I tried changing my account information to add the other email address, but wasn't allowed because another account was using the name (duh).  If I can't merge them, how could I change the MacBook from the Gmail address to the Hotmail address so that all my devices are on the same icloud account?  It'd be nice if I could keep the free 5GB of storage that comes with my purchase of the software, but I'd rather lose the storage than not be able to stream.

    To change accounts on your Mac, go to System Preferences, sign out of the current account, then sign into the new account.  When you sign out of the current account it will delete synced data from your Mac.  Assuming your data (such as contacts, calendars, etc.) is in the other iCloud account, it will be synced to your Mac when you sign into this account.

  • ARRRRGH! Apple Mail is now using the wrong email address by default

    ...unless I pick one specifically in it's prefs. What the **** could be
    causing this? It just started happening today. Shouldn't it be using the
    address of account I was last in? Instead it's using the last address
    entered in the email address field in Account prefs.
    *swears long and loudly* I've been sending email all day using the wrong
    effing address!
    Mail is also still continuing to remove a line after I paste text - some
    of the time. It's always nice to never know whether I'll need to fix
    things after pasting. Keeps me on my toes...

    I suggest you play with the Send new mail from setting and see if it makes any difference. The feature works OK for me, so I think there's something funky with your Mail settings.

  • TS3899 When sending email from the Mail App or through other Apps, my default From: address will change when I enter a To: address.  This sometimes leads me to send the email from the wrong outgoing email account.  It is frustrating and poor design.

    When sending email from the Mail App or through other Apps on my iPad, my default From: address will change when I enter a To: address.  This sometimes leads me to send the email from the wrong outgoing email account.  It is frustrating and poor design, especially since I had already checked the From: address.

    3rd party email addresses have to be deleted on every synmced mac product, although I have 1and1.co.uk and my imac updatetes the mails in that account from mac mail.
    Yahoo etc is a 2 step deleting process but good to get your emails pushed when on the go.

    This was EXACTLY what I needed about the purchases I made from my device. However, is there a way to re-download other ones you've made from a computer? Because I realized some of them were not just purchased from my device.
    This is a picture of what it looks like now:
    http://tinypic.com/r/107quxu/7
    As you can see, the stuff circled in red doesn't give me an option to download from Cloud Beta because it already says "downloaded".
    any way to get around that?

  • Autofill keeps using the wrong email address.

    Autofill keeps using the wrong email address. I have multiple email addresses that I use for work and at home. I have deleted the some and changed the order they are in "my contact" where it takes me to edit Autofill. After I make the changes, it always puts the one I don't want to autofill back on the top.
    Autofill is also leaving out my address and phnoe number, even though they are in my contact page.
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    I think nothing we (including you) can do if other printer OR printers print your document(s). But normally, the print job(s) will fail because you need to be in the list of authorized users. Now, back to your printer, have you setup that list otherwise anyone can use your printer.
    Regards.

  • I have Iphone 4s, and the phone will activate itself again. How do I get changed Apple ID on my phone so that I get using the new username and password that is verified? I would like an answer as soon as possible ... Thank you very much.

    I have Iphone 4s, and the phone will activate itself again. This I have verified, but when I shall put this onto my phone, so the phone will not approve the newusername and password. How do I get changed Apple ID on my phone so that I get using the new username and password that is verified? Silly to buy a new phone just for this .... The phone is almost three years old. How long can weexpect this to last? I would like an answer as soon as possible ... Thank you very much.

    It sounds like your device might be in Activation Lock.  Is it asking your to enter in an Apple ID & password, but only showing you the first letter of the email address and then some dots? Example: j•••••@icloud.com?
    If so, do you recognize that email?  Do you have an Apple ID that fits the same format?  If so, then go to www.cloud.com, log in with that Apple ID & password, and see if under Find My iPhone it shows this device.  If so, turn off the device, then remove the device from the list.

  • After installing OS8 my mail items On my iPad in trash often are mixed up with the body of the email in the wrong email. The iPhone with the same mail in trash is fine, as is the GMail trash on my PC.

    I Have IOS 8.1 on my iPad & iPhone And I use gmail. When I review email trash on the iPad, many of the emails in trash have the wrong content. The body of the email appears as the content of another email also in trash. The same emails in trash on the iPhone & in Gmail trash on the PC are all OK. if I file the email back in the inbox it Still has the body of the email with the wrong sender and addressee. Any ideas?

    Greetings,
    Mail doesn't create .txt files from email messages; it sends exactly what you type. If some of your recipients are claiming they receive .txt files, that would most likely be due to their email client, which no doubt is running Windoze. Only they can solve that problem. If the message is okay in your Sent mailbox, that's exactly what you sent, so the problem is on their end.
