How can I remove old deleted email addresses from my 'To' choices field

When I input an email address in my email 'TO' box old deleted email addresses still appear as choices. Is there any way of deleting these old addresses permanently? Very annoying!

There is no way to delete the remembered email addresses in the mail app. Removing them from your Contacts has no bearing on how this affects the mail app. The only real way to delete those remembered addresses is to restore the iPad to factory settings. That is a pretty harsh workaround just to have the mail app forget some email addresses.
If you ignore those addresses, eventually they will go away, but it can take some time before that happens. There is nothing short of restoring to factory settings that you can do now to remove them.

How can I remove an icloud email address if i have forgotten the password?

How can I remove an ICloud email address that's on my IPhone if I have forgotten the password? I have tried to reset the password through Apple ID but I no longer have access to the email address and its not recognising my birthday

If all you want is an additional email address you can create up to three 'email aliases' - these are additional addresses (not accounts) which deliver into the same inbox as the main account.
You should be aware before you start that once you've created an alias you cannot turn that address into a full iCloud account, move it to another account, or reactivate it if you delete it.
More information on aliases here:

HT203756 How can I remove 'old' or 'incomplete' backups from iCloud?

How can I remove 'old' or 'incomplete' backups from iCloud?
When I attempted, the iPhone 6+ message asked if I wanted to remove ALL of the backups... without giving me the option of selecting the specific one I wanted to remove.
I had performed 'backups' of my old iPhone, but, when I tried to RESTORE to the REPLACEMENT iPhone, at least one of the iCloud backups shows 'incomplete'. There was no 'error' on the original iPhone...when it 'failed' to complete the backup.
Now, I would like to 'clear up' the 'storage' on the iCloud, but am unable to select specific ones. I can either keep all instances or shut off iCloud Backup which would, according to the message, remove/delete ALL of the BACKUPS.
This shouldn't be this difficult.....

I too wondered how you remove apps from iCloud. Judging by the quantity of questions, comments, suggestions and replies (some rather rude) there is a clear need for Apple to make their literature a lot clearer. The page describing what iCloud backs up refers to "app data" as an item which is backed up. To the uniniated this might mean the app program but it seems not. The app is "bought" via iTunes or the App Store and details of your purchase (free or otherwise) is held there separately on the server.
It would be nice however to be able to remove the reference to junk I have downloaded and decided I don't want so that it doesn't appear on the purchased apps listing! Apple please note this.
It must be remembered that Apple products come pitifully supported by manuals "out of the box" on the assumption that it is so easy to use the product that no explanation is needed. They forget that most buyers of Apple products (me included) don't know (and don't want to know) how they work, so when something is not obvious they are required to plough through Lord knows how many web pages of "knowledge base" material until they find an answer.
All I can add is that it is worth spending time reading the multiitude of discussion threads before asking the question yet again...

I can't remove previous owners email address from App Store so can't use - advice please!!

I can't remove previous owners email address from App Store so can't use - advice please!!

Settings/iTunes & App Stores. Tap the Apple ID. Tap Sign out. Then sign in with your Apple ID. However, if the phone still has Find my iPhone enabled with the previous owner's Apple ID then the phone will be useless to you until you get the previous owner to release Activation Lock on the phone.

How do I remove a backup email address from my apple id account?

I'm attempting to sign up for an Apple ID with the aim of eventualy signing up for the developer program. Unfortuantly the site claimed that I have already signed up.
The reason for this is my gmail address is frequently mistakenly entered when other people with similar names sign up for stuff. Unfortunatly one of these people seems to have signed up for an Apple ID with my address and setup security questions without ever having verfied their email. I've reset the password, verified my email and logged in but there is some stuff I can't change.
I don't know their security questions and I can't remove their alternative email which leaves me open to them taking control of my apple ID in the future!
I really want to use my current email as I use it for everything but I can't change the security questions or alternative email!
Please help!!

Depending upon the address (some Apple addresses can't be removed) then you may be able to remove it by logging into the account via the 'manage your apple id' link on http://appleid.apple.com

HT204053 how can i move an icloud email address from one ipod to another?

Hi
My kids have ipods and wanted icloud activated. Foolishly I set up an icloud email account but used my son's name on my daughter's ipod. How can I switch the icloud email account to my son's ipod?
Thanks,

I don't really understand iCloud, but I have an Apple ID since both my kids are underage (8 and 11). They share my Apple ID, but have different Ipods. Can/Should I have separate iCloud emails for them? To recap, I have 1 Apple account, but have 2 kids, a boy and a girl. How do I have separate id's for their individual ipods using icloud when I have one Apple ID?

How can I remove a single email address not in my contact list

Hi all. Whenever I go to send a new email, and type in a specific letter, an email address pops up in my choices that is not in my contacts list in my phone, or through mail. It's an email address of someone I emailed a LONG time ago and will probably never email again. HOW can I get rid of this already???

I've also noticed that an email address that I've only used once, and may never use again, stays in memory and I can't find a wal to delete it either. I'll keep an eye on this thread hoping for a solution myself.

How do I remove incorrectly entered email addresses from my iPad emails

If an incorrect email address is entered into the address bar it is repeated over & over & often results in non delivery. How do I remove these addresses that do not appear in my contacts.
Thanks
Steve

As far as I know - you can't remove them in the mail app. The mail app inssists on remembering them. You just have to ignore them and eventually they are supposed to move to the bottom of the suggested email list.

How can I remove a deleted content file from my book's Table of Contents? I

I deleted the file, saved the book, updated the book, updated the TOC references, and confirmed that the file has been deleted -- but it's still there in the TOC. How can I get it out of there? And at what point in the proceedings should it be gone from the TOC?

> I deleted the file ....
How? You need to delete-from-book using the Book menu. A right-click option on the component file name.
> ... updated the book, ...
A necessary step, but might not work if the remove isn't done correctly.
> .... updated the TOC references ...
What does that mean?
I would expect a delete-from-book, followed by an update-book, would suffice.

How can I remove an e-mail address from iphoto 9.5.1

I have one bad e-mail address in Iphoto and it wont let me correct it or enter an alternat e-mail address for that person.
I have erased the offending address from gmail and any other place I could find it but could do it in iphoto.

Where in iPhoto are you seeing an offending email address for a person? Has it been assigned to a face?
Then you need to edit the address in Faces view. Select the Faces stack on the cork board in Faces view, open the Info panel, and click into the textfield for the email and edit it. Does that work?

How do I remove old e-mail addresses from the Mail Memory?

I have friends who have changed the e-mail addresses, and quite some time ago also. But everytime I write their name in the address field, it still brings up the old address as an option. And if I'm not paying attention it sends to the old address.
If there a way to clear the Mail memory so that it won't use old addresses?
Thanks.
