How do i delete an incorrect e mail on i cloud?

hubby spelt our e mail wrong and set it up as the primary Icloud ID, as it's mis spelt I can't verify
I already set up an ID for the correct spelling but it says it's not my primary account?
When I try to edit the mis spelt e mail address to the correct one it says i can't as that one already exists
When i go to edit the correct one to delete it, theres no delete button?
HELP!
would it work if i misspelt the non primary one and let me correct the primary?
thanks

You can't change the primary email address once created. Your only options are to create a completely new ID and iCloud account, or add an email alias to the existing account (and alias is an extra address, not account, which delivers into the same inbox as the primary address).
Note that new aliases will be @icloud.com only, not @me.com (the same is true of the address in a new account) and that at present some people are finding they cannot create aliases because the roll-out of @icloud.com addresses isn't complete.
For details on the use of aliases:

  • How do I delete an incorrect e-mail address from my e-mail history?

    I accidentally typed in the wrong e-mail address when filling out a form and now Firefox remembers that e-mail address. How do I delete it from the history?

    Next time that box and option comes up just highlight the option that is incorrect in the dropdown list and press the keyboard delete key. (Mac users: shift + del)

    You can't. There is no way to eliminate those remembered addresses in the mail app. Eventually if you keep ignoring that address it will go away, but it can take some time before it disappears. The only way that you can eliminate now, is by restoring the iPad to factory settings and that's pretty radical just to get rid of a mistyped email address - IMO anyway.

    How do I delete all of my mail at the same time? Or is this even possible? Thanks for your help.

    Unfortunately it isn't possible. You have to select one at a time. You might want to add your name to the many that have requested this feature in the past.

    How do I delete a corporate e-mail account?

    What phone do you have?  Is it a company phone?  If it is, you may not be able to delete the account.
    If it is your own phone, and you no longer need the company email, it should be a matter of finding the account list for the phone (Settings, Accounts - or Settings, Email - knowing which phone you have will help up give you more specific steps) and removing, deactivating, deleting the account.
    If it's the Google account that is the backup and app connection for the phone, you may lose much of the functionality until you set up an alternate Gmail address/account.

    how do I delete my mobileme e-mail account?

    Hey this is the problem "However it will continue to be accessible at http://icloud.com"
    And every now and then I would need to check it
    I ended up ringing them up earlier and the person I spoke to said he couldn't find a solution to delete it.
    I've decided I'm going to keep it and forward e-mails from Outlook to iCloud as I like iClouds other features such as notes, reminders, calendars, work etc...
    This is allowed, right? (forwarding)

    "when I try save to PDF it just wants to save it to a file?"
    Correct. The difference between "Mail PDF" and "Save PDF" is that the first opens a new Mail message with the file attached. the second saves a file which you may attach to an email message.
    "Terrainathome is a good example of what I am trying to do."
    Not familiar with Terrainathome, but my guess is that the company is sending an email message containing HTML code that downloads what's essentially a web page into the displayed message. To do that, you'll need a website, software that will produce the necessary HTML code, and recipients with email clients capable of interpreting HTML (which is 'most email clients' these days).

  • How do i delete contacts in my mail address book

    how do i delete contacts in my mail address book

    You don't, if you're referring to addresses that appear when you click the "Address" button.. Mail is just reading from the Address Book application's data. Open the standalone Address Book and you can edit and remove contacts there.
    If you want to clear the list of addresses that pop up as suggestions but that are not in your address book, go to the Window menu and select "Previous Recipients". You can edit or clear that list from there.
    Regards.

    Who is your mail service provider?
    You could delete it going through Safari and logging into your mail via whoever your service is through (Comcast, Gmail, Yahoo, etc.) or if it's via iCloud, log into that service and delete it there.

    How can I delete a primary e-mail address and replace it with a excisting Apple ID?

    An email address can only be used one account at a time, so if you want to replace it with an email address that is currently being used on another account then you will need to remove it from that account first before trying to put it on that account. You should be able to change the email address either by logging into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option, or via http://appleid.apple.com
