How do you edit the names that come up when you compose a new message?

i open mail and hit 'new message'.
then i click in the 'To' row and start to type a name.
it autofills names for me as i type, but where does it get the names from? and how can i edit that list ?
- e.g. my wife has changed her e-mail address. i already changed it in my address book. but the old address still appears...?
i've tried scrolling down to it so it goes blue, then hitting the delete key (like on a pc). no joy.
any advice?!
thanks in advance
paul

Hi it's probably appearing from your Previous Recipients List...
In Mail Click on Window... Select and Click on Previous Recipients...
Click on and Delete the Names and Addresses you no longer want...
Cheers,

    i tried to update my ipod but then it didnt work saying that an unknown error has occured, now itunes is not recognising that an ipod has been plugged in and the picture that comes up when you first get it (an arrow leading to the itunes sign) is on my screen, i dont know what to do?

    Error 1604
    This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, using a different dock connector to USB cable, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections. If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
    If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
    Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode,put it into Recovery Mode.
    Restore and wait for the error.
    When prompted, click OK.
    Close and reopen iTunes while the device remains connected.
    The device should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
    Try to restore again.
    If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.

    Hi,
    Tap the iPod icon in the Dock. Then tap the Airplay icon just to the right of the volume slider.
    Make sure the iPad speakers are selected, not your wireless.

  • How can I set the page that will open, when I open a new tab, to be the same as the homepage?

    How can I set the page that will open, when I open a new tab, to be the same as the homepage?
    An app changed it to some other search engine, before installing the app, I the tab that would open was the homepage I set.
    In my case it is Google, and I want my new tabs to open on Google like they did before the installation.
    thank you,
    Asaf Privman.

    You can middle-click or Ctrl left-click the Home button on the Navigation toolbar to open the Home page in a new tab.
    You can look at one of these extensions:

Does anyone know why its doing this? Or a way i can fix it? I've cheaked for updates and there is none!
    Thankyouuu
    it looks like that when it is locked and when its unlocked it looks like this

    Have you checked the volume button? It might be physically stuck. To determine whether a hardware repair is needed, you need to follow these steps:
    1. Try doing a hard reset:
    Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/wake button simultaneously for about 15 seconds and release when the Apple logo appears.
    After that: test the device to see whether the issue is solved.
    2. If the issue is not solved, you should backup the device and restore it as new.
    In that case, use: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
    NB: set up as a NEW device because a software issue will be in the backup.
    If the issue persists after restoring as new, you should offer the device for service.
    If you get specific error messages/codes in iTunes when updating/restoring, check this: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694 for causes and solutions
    Good luck

  • How can I change the image that's shown when you mouse-over a folder?

    Lightroom defaults to using the first image depending on how you sort and I can't find out how to change this. I know how to do it for stacks, but not for folders.

    If you're sorting- or could leave them sorted in by file name- changing the name of the first photo will get you there. Or changing the time stamp, etc.

  • How do I clear the bubbles that say recent when you double click ?  Plz help

    Just when you least expect it, well there you go it's happening again. Do you close your eyes and forget or  stand there

    I have been having this issue for some time as well. Currently on 10.10.1 - which also added a new issue. After I connect to a system the recent item shows up as ComputerName.vncloc and clicking on that fails to connect with a message to check if Screen Sharing is activated on the remote system. When I go through a Finder window it works fine but right click off the screen sharing dock item only sometimes works.

  • How do I manage the menu that comes up when I right-click and select "Edit In" ?

    Right now I have 17 programs/apps/plugins that appear in that menu.  I am going to have reinstall an earlier version of a program that I use a lot (OnOne) and that's going to add another half a dozen items to the list.  I only need one or two of the apps in that suite.  And then I may add another suite, the Topaz apps, and that will further add to the confusion.
    All of these 3rd party applications are connected to Lightroom via Plugins, but a lot of them do not appear in the listings in the plugin manager.
    Is there any way to manage that menu from within Lightroom?

  • What is the name of the small part that comes lose when you are removing the two battery screws on the left side of the battery, the small part is under the top screw when removing the iPhone 4s battery?

    What is the name of the small part that comes lose when you are removing the two battery screws on the left side of the battery, the small part is under the top screw when removing the iPhone 4s battery?

    It's the part that means you've voided your warranty and the right to get an out-of-warranty replacement from Apple.

  • What is the name of the tooltips that shows up when you hover over a UIbutton?, such as "back", "foreward", "home" etc

    Okey so basically I've themes my windows 7 into a black state.
    The thing about that is that the default font color firefox uses for tooltips and other information is back so its quite impossible for me to read.
    After a while googleing I found out that something called userChrome.css can be used so naturally I looked furhter.
    I found answers for almost everything I was looking for, except these "button tooltips".
    Heres my userChrome.css code:
    menubar, menu {
    color: black !important;
    menupopup > menu,
    menupopup > menuitem,
    popup > menu,
    popup > menuitem {
    color: white !important;
    tooltip, statusbar {
    color: white !important;
    Basically it takes care of all text that was black and turns it the way I like it.
    So what is the name of the tooltips that shows up when you hover over a UIbutton? such as "back"
    With the correct name I should be able to add
    name {
    color: white !important
    and it should work just fine :)

  • How can I see the name (that I gave) of the bookmark in the browser while I'm in that page?

    <blockquote>Locking duplicate thread.<br>
    Please continue here: [/questions/792848]</blockquote><br>
    We can give the names we want to the bookmarks.
    How can I see (without clicking anywhere) the name that I gave when I'm in that webpage?
    Is there any option/addon so I can see that information in any bar?
    Thank you!
    Best regards,

    Maybe Tab Mix Plus has that feature (e.g. set the title of the tab to the bookmark title).

    The 8130 comes with a 900mAh battery. Make sure you get a compatible battery for the BlackBerry device. One is listed here:

  • How do u change the name  that my email is sent in

    How do I change the name that appears on the emails I send?

    My full name is in my Contacts, and includes all my e-mail accounts.  I have a Yahoo account that I use for online purchases, and I've set my Yahoo account on my iPhone to only include my initials.  When I send a message from my Yahoo account to another account (even my own, which is in my Contacts) it comes in with just my initials.
    My main e-mail is a GMail account set up as Exchnage, but I have another GMail account set up as a "regular" GMail account on my iPhone.  That behaves just as my Yahoo account does, though I don't know how other account types behave.
