How do I stop email contacts 'suggestions'?

How do I stop the 'helpful' email contacts suggested when I start to draft a new email? Easy to accidentally send to wrong contact. Is there anyway to (a) delete the names that currently come up and (b) stop new contacts being added?

Unfortunately No.
But the future releases may have that option.

How do I stop unwanted contacts on facetime

how do I stop unwanted contact on facetime this party keeps sending me messages and I have asked them to stop but they wont.

The Mail app doesn't have a spam filter, any filtering that you want to do needs to be done before it reaches the iPad - if you log into your account via a browser, does your email provider have any settings/options that you can enable ?

Stop email address suggestions on iCloud

I am using iCloud on my mac and am typing an email, when I type an email address in instead of just showing the single address it is trying to be smart offering any combination of users I've ever used that included that address. Since I copy myself on every email it is a nightmare!
How can I stop iCloud from suggesting email addresses?
How can I clear the email addresses cache / history on iCloud?
Thanks much in advanced!!

You say you're using iCloud Mail on your Mac, but do you mean via a browser at iCloud.com or in the Apple Mail application?
This is how you manage the Previous Recipients list in Mail on your Mac: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11766
And to turn the auto-suggesting feature off completely, go to
Mail > Preferences > Composing and uncheck Automatically complete addresses.

Deselect this option under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes followed by selecting Apply. Bookmarks will no longer be synced between the two.

How do I stop duplicating contacts when I sync with gmail

How do I stop duplicating contacts when I sync my IPod Touch with Gmail?

I don't know if this helps much, but Address Book was basically the same application in a previous version of the Mac OS. Folks still seem to use the terms interchangably though. Similarly, Calendar used to be "iCal."
I believe syncing contacts with Google or iCloud is an either/or proposition - you can't do both. When you sync with either, a copy is saved to your Mac for faster access (like a web browser's cache). I believe there's still an option to save contacts exclusively to your Mac (HD), but I don't think it's either preferred or occurs by default if you have an account such as Gmail/google or iCloud already set up.
I've never played with preferences in Contacts (Address Book), but I do have both google and iCloud accounts associated with my Mac. Under System Preferences:Mail, Contacts & Calendars, you can specify what accounts do on your Mac. If you have multiple accounts set up, a list will appear on the left side. As you select each one, a list of check boxes appear to the right for each service you want to associate with that account. For example, I have an iCloud account for mail, calendars, contacts, and Safari (among others). I have a Gmail account for mail, although it gives me the option of using this account for calendars, etc. For Gmail, the only item I have checked is mail. It's never asked me if I wanted to sync my addresses with Google.
I hope this helps... at least a little. If nothing else, I hope I've solved the "Address Book" mystery ;-)

Everything that you have checked in your icloud settings will be shared between devices using the same Apple ID. If you don't want icloud to share that information, then simply turn off that process under settings > icloud

HT201320 I don't understand how to transfer my email contacts from my Windows laptop to my iPhone? What do I need to do?

I don't understand how to transfer my email contacts from my Windows laptop to my iPhone? What do I need to do?

Hey wahanz!
In order to sync your Windows contacts to your iPhone, you will need to first create an iCloud account:
Creating an iCloud account: Frequently Asked Questions
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4436
You will create the iCloud account on your iOS device, and when you do, don’t forget to turn on contact syncing in the initial setup. Then you will want to download the iCloud control panel for Windows onto your computer and install it:
iCloud Control Panel 3.1 for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1455
Make sure that your contacts are in Outlook, as that is the supported way of syncing your contacts to iCloud, then make sure you have the contact syncing enabled in the iCloud control panel on your computer, and when the contacts have synced, they will be available on your iOS device! Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a good one!

How to migrate Outlook emails, contacts etc to Thunderbird in an other PC without Outlook.

I am upgrading to a new PC and many changes take place at the same time. The old PC with Outlook and 2 GB of emails is still working (somehow). In the new PC there is no Outlook present. How to move the email, contacts, (calendar) to the new PC with Thunderbird as email application.
The instructions on your web let me understand that I need to have Outlook on the new PC to do the moves of emails. It does not offer other alternatives. If it helps I can copy the Outlook *.pst files to the new PC (but where and what happens next?). I have no possibility to install outlook on the new PC without buying a new program!

Why not install Thunderbird on the older computer and migrate the mails there, then copy the profile to the new computer?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable

How do I stop emails bounced message notifications?

I don't believe there is a way, because the server is going to continue to retry sending the messages until a time out happens. Once the time out passes, you will no longer receive the bounced email messages.
