How can I delete an old email address from autofill?

I have an old, (email address that is not in my address book) that is constantly showing up in my autofill when I want to send an email and it is driving me nuts. I've tried restoring my phone; clearing prevous receipents list. Can anyone please help??????

The only way to erase this data is to restore your phone as a new device in iTunes, NOT from backup. All data on your phone will be erased, including these email addresses. Follow this by syncing your iTunes content & other data back to your phone. You have to decide if it's worth going through this or just living with it.

How can I delete unwanted/inaccurate email addresses from the iPhone cache?

How can I delete old / unwanted / inaccurate email addresses from the "suggestions cache" that keep popping up the moment I type in the first letter in on a fresh email address box?
This is driving me mad! The London Store Apple Genius can only suggest either deleting my email account and then recreating it or totally reseting the iPhone to the original factory settings and then resynching it to my MacBook Pro to get everything back into the iPhone. However, he's not sure that this cache is not stored on the MacBook Pro during synching somewhere so I may well end up where I started! Allan Sampson answered my last "Help" topic, so I'm hoping he can beat the Apple Store Genius again!
Over to the Forum and Allan.

Hi Kelvin and everyone with the same problem.
This used to be me and the painful solution ( for PC users ) is:
Buy a Mac!
Everything "talks" to each other and it all interfaces fine with the business world.
Once you've adjusted to the ( much better ) Mac "culture" it all becomes clear and the
backup service and advice is second to none. Not only that, everything works!
Hope this helps......

How do I delete an old home address from autofill?

I bought some tape from a company called Tape Brothers. I entered my home address for billing and shipping. Somehow during the process, it used autofill to add my old address from another state I lived in 18 months ago, and filled in THAT address. In the website's own account information for me it shows my new address first, and my old address second, buy autofill apparently filled in the old address instead. The 'expert' at the vendor site told me that the problem wasn't their system, but my autofil function of Firefox. Is there a way for me to delete that old address so that it can never autofil it again? If I completely delete Firefox and reload it, will that fix my issue?

You can check if that got removed by revisiting the page and check the drop-down list.
If you highlight an entry and press the Delete key then that entry should be gone if you click the down arrow again.
I'm not sure if this is a normal autocomplete (saved form data) or a name/password combination, but this should work in both cases.
Saved names and passwords can be found in the Password Manager.
*Tools > Options > Security: Passwords: "Remember passwords for sites"
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/password-manager-remember-delete-change-passwords
For saved form data there isn't a user interface to inspect and manage items that Firefox has stored and the only way to check for those is to visit the page where you saved them and check the drop-down list if the input field.

How can i change my old email address to my new email address

how can i change my old email address to my new email address need help please everything i try want work

Go to Settings>Store>Apple ID, tap the ID shown, sign out, sign back in with the new ID. However, app updates for your apps purchased with your older ID will always ask for the password for this ID. (Apps are permanently tied to the Apple ID used to purchase them.)

HT204053 how can i delete my old icloud account from my iphone

how can i delete my old icloud account from my iphone

Go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, 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 iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then 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.

Welcome to the Apple community mohinderjeet.
If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple ID.
This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device.
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

Have searched Forums for quite some time now. Cannot find a correct answer to: how do I prevent my old email address from appearing as the "from:" address

Have searched Forums for quite some time now. Cannot find a correct answer to: how do I prevent my old email address from appearing as the "from:" address when I use a "send this" link on a webpage/news article. The email window opens and automatically inserts my old Hotmail address instead of the Yahoo address I've used for a long time. (The drop-down won't let me change it or delete it.) Thanks.

Do you get a drop down list with suggestions if you clear that "from" field and click elsewhere on that page to move the focus off that field and then double-click again in that field or start typing the first letters of that unwanted email address?
Use these steps to remove saved (form) data from a drop down list:
#Click the (empty) input field on the web page to open the drop down list
#Highlight an entry in the drop down list
#Press the Delete key (on Mac: Shift+Delete) to remove it.
