How do I delete auto-complete addresses in iPhoto?

Help! I've found a related discussion for deleting obsolete addresses in Apple mail and on the iPad (brilliant, by the way!), but neither solution seems applicable in iPhoto. Several old or incorrect addresses are offered when I address photos to share. Apple store personnel were not familiar with the problem and said simply that iPhoto 'wasn't designed to do that, it's all together different'. Very frustrating. Any ideas?

Could you elaborate on this 'solution' you mention? There's only one place that iPhoto gets email addresses, and it's from Address Book or by you entering it manually, after which it's in Mail's list of Previous Addresses. So deleting an address from there is the only way to get rid of it.

How can I delete auto-complete entries in Mail on iPhone?

I've done some searching and I think the answer to my question, at least for now, is "you can't!". But I'm still open to suggestions. iOS 5.0.1, if it matters (I need to update my signature).
I was just telling my wife (who is having this issue on her iPhone 4s - with MY work address) that with Apple devices it's either very easy or you can't do it. I'm afraid this falls into the latter category. I have just filled out the feedback form.

No. Auto-complete is completely automatic and uses any entry you have made previously in that column.
You can turn it on or off, but the only editing that, to my knowledge, can be done is to:
delete any items entered in the column in error.
select and copy the 'good' items (and the empty cells in the range).
select one or more cells in the column, then go Table (menu) > Delete Column
press option-left arrow to insert a new column in place of the one deleted.
click on the cell where the first item in the list was copied from.
paste
enter the missing items, then continue from the last entered value.
(The auto-completion list will now contain only those values you pasted, plus new values you have since entered in the column.)

How do you delete "auto-fill" addresses in Mail?

When you start to type a name in Mail, it gives you a list of email addresses associated with that name. Problem is, it'll list multiple email addresses for the same person even if you've deleted old addresses from Address Book.
Is there a way to delete some of these "auto-fill" addresses?
Thanks

If you mean that when you start to enter an email address it completes the address with the incorrect one then the answer is no without restoring the iPad to factory defaults/new iPad.

How to reset the auto-complete email adresses?

How can I delete old email addresses from auto complete?
I have been having trouble trying to find out how to delete the old typed email history. For an example, if I go to send a picture to Bob, I start typing Bob and it comes up with 3 old emails of his. Not a big deal except it's hard to keep track of what emails are current.
In other words, after deleting the old emails in the contacts it still shows up when I start typing a person's name.

I am having the same problem on my IPad. It appears these old email addresses are saved in the memory and from what I read, there is no way to delete them regardless if you delete the contact. Hopefully in a future update that can be resolved. It is very annoying though.

Tiger Mail to Leopard Mail - Auto Complete Addresses?

Hi there,
I've recently backed up my friend's complete Home folder from Tiger, along with all other Tiger assets required to hopefully make a smooth migration to Leopard.
NERD SCENARIO:
Apple Mail: My friend relied heavily on "Automatically complete addresses" in Apple Mail, otherwise known as Automatic Addressing, aka: auto complete TO: email addresses when typing a name. Unfortunately, when migrating to Leopard, he has now lost auto addressing after I migrated his old email (Inbox, Sent, Deleted, etc.) He's savvy, but not savvy enough to know to add his recipients to his Apple Address Book -- therefore Leopard Mail is only auto completing recent mail within this past week. I'm now trying to inform him to begin adding people to his Address Book so this doesn't happen again -- but it might be too late? He used to rely heavily on Auto Addressing to remember email addresses prior.
TRANSLATION:
1. How can I pull date or history from my backed up Mail folder from Tiger to import back into Leopard so "Auto Addressing" will remember email addresses prior?
2. Did I not backup his mail correctly? I burned an almost exact mirror of his hard drive to a DVD.
3. Has he lost his ability to auto address old email addresses? Since he didn't add them to his Address Book?
Thanks for any help!

I just did the same thing, transferring all my data from Tiger to a new Leopard MacBook Pro, and now I can't access ANY of my addresses from my old address book, even tho I can see all the data sitting in Library... How the heck do I get the hundreds of addresses into my new address book? And, why won't my new Mail pick up all the Auto-Complete addresses from the old program if I transferred everything over?

How can I delete a bookmark address in I cloud without deleting the whole account

How can I delete a bookmark address in I cloud without deleting the complete account. Is it possible?

Your question does not make much sense. iCloud syncs Safari's bookmarks between devices. If you delete a web site's bookmark from one device it will be removed from all other devices setup to sync to your iCloud account. If this is a bookmark to other websites you have an account with such as Amazon or other sites you are only removing the bookmark to that site, you would have to log into that website to remove thae account related to that site.

Populating Outlook 2013 auto-complete addresses via PowerShell

Hello,
I would like to use PowerShell to add auto-complete e-mail addressees to Microsoft Office Outlook
2013. My understanding is that since Outlook 2010 was released, the NK2 file has been retired in favor of integrating the auto-complete addresses with the PST file (see link below). With that in mind, how can I manipulate the PST file to accommodate
the auto-completion? Is there any documentation on the PST file structure that would allow me to inject this information into an existing PST? If a user has multiple PST files, how do you know which one contains the auto-complete entries — are they aggregated?

"The NK2 file has been retired in favor of integrating the auto-complete addresses with the PST file"
- I think this discription is not exactly.
In fact, Outlook 2010/2013 reads the autocomplete stream
from a message in the Associated Contents table of the Inbox of the mail account’s delivery store. (In another word, it is stored in mailbox site but is not on local). This
hidden message has a message class and subject of IPM.Configuration.Autocomplete. The autocomplete stream is stored on this message in the PR_ROAMING_BINARYSTREAM property (PidTagRoamingBinary
Canonical Property).
Go back to your quesion, the autocomplete data, whatever belongs which mail account’s delivery store, is temporarily cached in an autocomplete .dat file located in %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook\RoamCache.

Exchange Server 2013 / Outlook 2010 Auto-Complete address problems

Hi
We run an Exchange 2013 environment where end users use Outlook 2010.
For some reason several users (at least 5 so far, maybe more that haven't noticed yet) are complaining that they are now unable to add any additional address to the Auto-Complete cache. This can be resolved manually by emptying the cache from within
Outlook then disabling and re-enabling auto-complete but obviously they then have a blank slate.
My question is - is there anything that can cause this type of problem collectively? I have seen it previously, but occurrences have always been isolated to an individual user.
Thanks in advance

Hello,
You can try use NK2View tool to modify your Outlook Auto Complete Addresses.
With NK2View you can delete unwanted email addresses from your autocomplete file and add new addresses from your address book as well as edit current email address entries. And NK2View is a free download from NirSoft and you can get the software by going
to their website.
Besides, the auto-complete cache is a outlook feature, I recommend you post your issue to outlook forum.

Removing Auto Complete Address Entry

For Mail, I set Compose preference to auto complete address entry. At some point, I have entered an incorrect email address. Now, when I start to type that person's email address, I am presented with both the incorrect and correct address -- and I can never remember which is correct.
How can I remove an auto complete address entry forever?

LCR,
To remove an old address go to Mail>Window>Previous Recipients...select and "Remove From List" for the one you no longer want.

How do I delete my email address that is paired with my Droid and replace it with another email address? thanks!

How do I delete the email address that Veriozon Wireless rep paired with my Droid and replace it with a different address?

The easiest way would be to go to menu>settings>accounts & sync, select the account (I'm assuming you're referring to your gmail account, so select google), then press the remove account button at the bottom. You may lose all your contacts and other data associated with your google account, possibly even your apps, so be aware of this beforehand. You can then add the new account from the accounts & sync menu.
If you are willing to completely start over with your phone, another alternative would be to factory reset it (menu>settings>privacy>factory data reset). This will return your phone to an out-of-the-box condition, and you can use a different gmail address if you like.

How do I delete stored email addresses in my iphone? When sending photos, I don't want to have certain email addresses "popping up" from the internal memory, I've deleted my entire "Contact" list but they still appear. Help please!

How do I delete stored email addresses in my iphone? When sending photos, I don't want to have certain email addresses "popping up" from the internal memory, I've deleted my entire "Contact" list but they still appear. Help please!

As with the Mail app on a Mac, the iPhone's Mail app stores all email recipients in a list of previous recipients which is separate from the address book or contacts. The email address autofill feature when addressing an message pulls from Contacts and from the list of previous recipients.
Different from the Mail app on a Mac, there is no access to the list of previous recipients with iOS on an iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad to remove a previous recipient from the list, or to add a previous recipient to the address book or contacts that is not already entered - not at the present time anyway.
The only way to purge the list of previous recipients at the present time is by restoring your iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup, which will start being re-populated again with every sent message.

That isn't possible, you cannot delete an iCloud account, you can only stop using it.
