How do i stop incoming e-mail addresse from being added to my address file

each incoming e-mail adds the address to my file--iwant to stop this--noted in "discussion" that there is an add-on that will add the names--I did not download this add-on and can find ne record of it

when i received your e-mail your address [email protected] was added to my address book--i have not installed any add-ons--so i went into help and uninstalled any add-ons
the add-on for auto add addresses came from your support forum--follows
"Helpful Reply
To add them manually click on the star to the right of the senders address when viewing the message in the message pane or a tab. If the star is filled with color, the contact is already in your address book. If the star is blank, clicking it will add it. Clicking the star a second time will open the edit dialog box.
This is NOT the same star that is to the left of the message header in the Inbox view.
There are some add ons that will add all incoming addresses to their address book. I cannot imaging why anyone would want to do this, but it is available. You can search the add on list for these applications if that interests you"

  • How to stop email addresses from being added to contacts

    hofw do you stop email addresses from sent emails from being added automatically to contacts?

    No. They are not being created by the phone. They are being created by your mail system, whether that is Exchange, Yahoo, Google, etc. They all have settings to automatically create contacts from people you correspond with. There is no setting on the phone to control this. Check the settings for your mail account with or talk to your IT department.

  • How do I stop all my Apple devices from being connected ?

    I screwed up when I set up my apple devices and now they all ring when one is dialed. I can't remember how do reverse this. Seems like I've done this before

    KalebsDad78 gave you the right answer.  When I set up both of my new iPhone 6 last night, they both rang when a call was directed at either device.  Simply going into Settings > Facetime and turning off iPhone Cellular Calls stopped them from both ringing immediately.  Changing this does NOT have anything to do with Hand Off whatsoever.

  • How can I stop all of my documents from being in a text ?  Some Documents are not opening, how can fix these two problems?

    All of my documents show up in the text form with small font and difficult to read when I send them as an attachment.  Can you help with this please?

    All I can suggest is to contact iTunes. You should not have been able to create a new account with the same email address

  • How can you stop your ipod touch data from being restored on the computer with a program that lets you see your deleated safari history

    heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllppppppp pppppppppppppp

    Delete the backup from iTunes. Go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and highlight the backup and click on delete. You have to do that after every sync. Also, make sure that you empty the recycle bin (PC) or trash (Mac) to really delete the backup.
    Also, in the future you can turn on Private browsings in Settings>Safari or go there and Clear History right before you sync.

  • How do I stop duplicates of saved photos from being imported into iPhoto?

    When I sych to iPhoto, I get duplicates of art work that I have in "Saved Photos".  iPhoto doesn't screen out art work that I have created and added before making a lot of work to delete all the duplicates.

    Photos you take on your iPhone are normally displayed in the Last 12 Months section of iPhoto. If you are using iPhoto to archive photos copy the photos from there to other albums in iPhoto instead of syncing them.

  • How do I stop my text messages/iMessages from being sent to other devices on my account?

    Ok. Ive just about had it with my parents/siblings being able to read every single text message I send/receive from their ipad or iphone. Is there anyway to disable this without having to lose all my music, apps, etc. by getting a new account? I understand the "grown up" thing to do would be to set up a new account, and just get off their freakin account, but it would just really suck to have to start all over. Ive never had this problem before until I got the new update. Help?

    iMessages, not text messages as in SMS/MMS.
    Have the other iPhones with iMessage registered with your shared Apple ID register iMessage on their iPhone with their own Apple ID.

  • How can I stop an uninstalled application/process from using 101% of my CPU?

    A couple months ago I asked a question about my fans running loudly- which opened my eyes to the ability to force quit processes with the activity monitor. The culprit was software for an external hard drive that I was no longer using, so I uninstalled it. Problem is that my fans are running high again, almost constantly, and the process that seems to be the culprit is the same one from the software I've uninstalled. When I search my computer for any lingering files, none come up.  How can I stop an application I uninstalled from being a running process and overheating my computer?

    screencaps of file search & activity monitor- the problematic process is WDSmartWareD

    Does the wdsmartware come with an uninstaller? Or specific uninstall instructions? Most software packages come with one or the other.

  • In mail how do we stop the e-mail's showing as read when you select them without opening the full e-mail

    In mail how do we stop the e-mail's showing as read when you select them without opening the full e-mail? I want to click on a mail and read this in the preview pane only without showing it as read.

    Not possible. In order to read an email in the preview pane requires opening the message. You can mark a message that you've read as unread after reading it.

  • How can I find out the mail server from email address?

    Hi:
    How can I find out the mail server from email address?
    for example: If I know the email address is [email protected],
    how to find the pop3 and smtp mail server?
    THANK YOU

    You can't tell by the email address since you can pretty much put whatever you want in there (especially if the SMTP server is not filtering anything).
    The header may be able to tell you something. There is a Received header value which looks like it has the routing information although I am not sure if this is a complete trace or just the last hop the message took.

  • Does anyone know how to change where incoming (via mail) calendar requests go on my MacBook? Mine insist on going to Entourage, which I don't use any more. I've tried setting the default calendar in iCal preferences. Doesn't help. Bugs me. Can you help?

    I know this email is confusing and really hard to understand...perhaps now you will know how i've been feeling--lost and confused with all the mis-information, with a hit and miss phone, and out of time with all the 1 1/2 hr to 2 hrs EACH wasted on this issue.
    On top of all this, I can't even find out how to file a complaint with anyone higher up than Customer Service.
    I hate to tell you this, but you didn't write an email. You wrote a discussion post on the Verizon Wireless Community forum which is a public peer to peer forum. Unfortunately since you didn't mark your post as a question, the VZW reps that roam this community won't ever see your post. Before you re-post it, don't. Duplicate posts get removed from the community.
    I see there were several missteps both by the reps and yourself in your post. First you should have insisted on returning the phone within the 14 day return policy period. Second which Samsung Galaxy mini model did you purchase? The S3 mini or the S4 mini? Did you do any research prior to deciding on this device. The reps at that time deflected the easiest course of action, by trying to get you to replace the phone under insurance instead of returning the phone. The Early Edge payment option requires the current phone on the line using the early Edge must be returned to Verizon Wireless. Did you once considered going to a third party site like Swappa to purchase a gently used device for your daughter?

  • I have an iphone 5 how do I stop junk e-mail?

    How do I stop junk e-mail on my iPhone 5?

    You don't stop it from the iphone.
    If your e-mail provider provides filtering from the server, then set this up from the server.

  • How can I stop auto deletion of messages from my inbox?

    How can I stop auto deletion of messages from my inbox?
    I've tried to fix this by changing the IMAP account's Junk settings so that they are moved either to the
    "Junk" folder on 'account name'
    or
    Other: (drop down list for choosing accounts and one of its folders) Junk on 'account name'
    I am sure I lost all of my important, not junk mail, amazon.com messages as well as other messages from comercial sites.
    Secondly: Please tell me what the difference is between the 2 junk folder choices above.
    Thank you,
