How do I correct my name as appears in emails

When I send an email from my iPad, my name appears incorrectly, as if  my last name was auto-corrected. How can I change this?

Glad I was able to help.
Interestingly, solutions to Apple issues tend to be pretty straightforward, especially when looking back at them.
For future reference, that's often the trick to figuring them out ... just figure out where would the solution likely be.  I'm trying to say whatever the issue, the solution is likely not too complicated in the world of Apple.
Enjoy your iPad and Apple gear.

    How can I Correct my name from icloud?

    You can't change it there.  You have to delete the account and set up a new one.  When you delete you lose access to the data you saved there under that account.  I think option appears to save data to the phone when you delete the icloud account

  • How can I get my name to appear as caller ID?

    How do I get my name (not account owner) to show as caller ID

    You need the other person to have your phone added to a contact with your name.
    You can create a contact of yourself and send him or her by email, to ease the process.
    Hope it helps.

  • How do I change the name that appears on my comments on the photo streaming?

    When I first bought and configured my iphone 4, my husband used his name to create an apple account. I was able to change it most everywhere, but when I post a comment on a photo streaming it appears his name instead of mine. How do I fix it? When I log in, my name appears (at first it was his). The problem only seems to persist on the photostreaming. Thank you.

    Do this.
    Click account Banner.
    Select Edit Account INfo
    Change First Name,Last NAme
    Done

  • How do I correct my name in iCloud settings details?

    When I go into 'details' for my iCloud account in the mail/contacts settings, or when I go into 'account details' in the icloud settings, my Full Name is listed as my wife's name. No matter how many times I manually change it in either place, it keeps reverting back.
    Anyone have any suggetions?
    I have tried updating it in appleid.apple.com, but did not work.
    Thanks,

    If your Apple ID is updated and Correct, you could try this:
    System Preferences/iCloud/Sign Out
    Then go to ~(User Folder)/Library/Preferences/com.apple.id-status.plist.  Move the file to the Desktop, don't delete it. Then go back to System Preferences/iCloud and Sign In. See if your name and Apple ID is correct.
    If not, you can just move the .plist file back to the Preferences Folder.

  • HT201317 How do I correct my name in my Shared Photo Stream?

    The stream says "shared by Me", and "Me" is obviously registered somewhere, but I can't find where. It's not my apple ID, nor my iPad name or mail account.

    I found the answer in an other thread: it cannot be corrected. Apple takes the user name from the credit card in iTunes.
    So in my case, and probably many others (VENT): my most informal and intimate communications will always be accompanied by my cursed, hated official name. Unfortunately I haven't found another tool that works as well as photo streams to stay in touch with the folks at home :-(

  • How do I correct my display which appears like a photo negative (='s colors reversed)

    I recently Uniblue's Registry Booster and System Tweaker [bad idea!] . Registry Booster claims to have corrected 150+ errors. But it appears to have also utterly disabled my favorite browser [Google Chrome] and makes Mozilla Firefox appear like a photograph negative.

    Thanks Terence. I know about that in iPhoto already. I use it often. However, that is not an option when creating a book. When you click on the photos button in the bottom right corner when creating a book, it shows the photos but there is no "info" selection. The only way I find out the date is to drag the photo into the book, then go back and hover over the page number it was imported to and hope eventually the date shows up. If it's not the date for the chapter I wanted (as my chapters are divided by months), I then drag it back out and try again until I find a photo that does have that date. It's taken hours and is different from previous versions of iPhoto where I have created books before. This is iPhoto 11, trying to create a hard bound book.

  • How do I keep my name from appearing in all caps?

    Since I upgraded to ML, my name in my email address appears in ALL CAPS. I've tried changing it to lower and upper case in preferences and in settings. It works for a while but goes back to ALL CAPS in a day or two.
    It's extremely frustrating because having one's name in ALL CAPS comes accross as RUDE and SELF-IMPORTANT!

    I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels this is important.  I was able to make it work (get rid of the all caps):
    1.  When you're in Mail, go to Preferences.
    2.  When you're in Preferences; go to Accounts.
    3.  When you're in Accounts; select iCloud and Account Information.  From here, you may see your name in all caps greyed out in the [Full Name] part.  You should also see where it says [Alias] to be a drop down list.
    4.  Select [Alias] and change it to (Custom).  This should allow you to edit the way your name appears.
    5.  When you finish this part, Save it (by moving to a different section in the preference pane) and it should work.

  • How do I get contact names to appear in the Verizon Messages browser version?

    Hey Guys,
    I just got the S5 and was giving the Verizon Messages app a shot since Mighty Text is acting a little wonky with Kit Kat and won't sync outgoing browser texts with the phone. With the VZW Messages app sending and receiving texts from my phone and browser works fine but I wanted the contact names to show up in the browser window. I figured Verizon was pulling the data from the cloud storage and not directly from the phone so I synced my contacts with vzw cloud but it only synced 35 out of my 350 contacts. They all originated from Google Contacts and seamlessly imported to my new phone from my old one.
    Any ideas?

        Having the ability to access your contacts via Verizon Messages is very important JoeVoorhees. I am happy to inform you that with Verizon Messages, you do have the ability to import your contacts. To do this, simply sign into your Verizon Messages online>on the upper right hand side>click on menu>manage contacts>import contacts>on the top right hand side of the page you will see a picture of your phone and sync. Click on sync.
    Thank You,

  • How do I change the name associated with my email account on my PC?

    My mothers name is what appears when I send emails instead of mine.  I have found directions on how to change the name on a Mac but I have a PC. It is rather frustrating because I send out business emails and often times the receiver does not look at my signature block but instead replies to me addressing me by her name.

    By that you mean you log into the iCloud.com website?    Or are you using an email client like Outlook or Thunderbird?

    If you use an email client which one?

  • First Name Only Appears In Email

    I have a person who emails me, and she has the same first name as several other persons who email me, but her last never appears in the From tab, so it is hard to search for her emails. Her full name appears in the actual email. What gives?

    It's either something w/her email account is setup on her computer or it's how you have her entered in your address book.

  • How does iphone assign a name to an incoming email address

    Haven't seen this question posted before.  I have several names in my Contact list with the same email address (i use them for eblasts to different groups). When an incoming email arrives, iPhone randomly grabs one of those names and assigns it to my email address. No one else sees this but me; however it is annoying to see some random group's name listed in the To: or cc: instead of my name. Is there a fix for this? Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

    Let me see if I can wrap my head around this...
    This is the way I see it:
    1) Sally, Sue and Joe all have the same email. [email protected]
    2) You have separate entries in your contacts for Sally, Sue and Joe all with the above same email.
    3) Sally sends you an email from her mac. She has her email set up as "Sally" with address [email protected]
    4) When your iphone receives her email, it looks in your contacts list for [email protected]
    You want to know how it finds "Sally" and not "Sue" or "Joe"?
    Right?
    It doesn't.
    I tested this. I have a gmail account that does not live on my iphone. I logged in on my mac via the internet and sent a test message. I do not have that gmail account in my contacts, nor on my mac's address book, so the iphone has no knowledge of it.
    It told me I got a message from my name, from my gmail account.
    Ergo, the name was sent along with the email address, so it appears that item number 4 is not happening.
    So, there is nothing you can do on the iphone, as it is not the iphone that is handling the name. The name comes from the sender, which you have no control over.
    Assuming I understood your problem....
