How to delete ALL previously sent email addresses from *iPad*
I use my Apple ID to set up my kids' iPad Minis, which in retrospect was not so bright.
Now when my child starts typing the recipient's name for an email all of MY previously sent email addresses come up, many of which are work-related.
I know I can click on the blue "I" and remove them one by one, but I have over 1,000 contacts - so one by one just isn't practical. Is there a way to delete them all in one go?
Again - this is on the iPad mini, NOT laptop/desktop. I know how to do it on my MBP but can't find anything out there for the bulk deletion on the iPad.
Thanks!
Any idea how the addresses "synced" on there to begin with? Surely there's an "unsync" feature?
My email addresses are not being used on the iPad so it must have something to do with my Apple ID.

Hello susandron
Check out the article below to troubleshoot your issue with that email account. If it is iCloud, you can go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and select the mail account and toggle off Mail or delete.

How do I delete ALL my sent emails from my iPad at once?
How do I delete ALL my sent emails from my iPad at once? I can do the inbox but not the sent.
There is no built in way to do this in iOS. If this trick doesn't work for you, then it can't be done.

When you forward an email, it will be sent to any previous addressees, only whomever you choose to forward it to. If you are referring to text in the email body that includes previous address information, simply edit it before sending.

HT204053 how do i change my icloud email address from the one i already have input?
how do i change my icloud email address from the one i already have input?
Hi sparkie,
You cannot change your iCloud email address. It is an @me.com address, and is associated specifically with that iCloud account. If you want a different @me address assigned, you have to delete the current iCloud account and set up a new one.
Here is a link with all the support information for iCloud:

Hope this helps!
Cheers,

My icloud is showing a very old email address,while myitunes / appstore email is showing the new email address? How do i remove the old email address from icloud?
Welcome to the Apple community mohinderjeet.
If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple ID.
This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device.
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

If, when you see the address, you see a white arrow in a blue circle to the right, press that symbol. You would see a "Delete" option at the bottom.

Have searched Forums for quite some time now. Cannot find a correct answer to: how do I prevent my old email address from appearing as the "from:" address when I use a "send this" link on a webpage/news article. The email window opens and automatically inserts my old Hotmail address instead of the Yahoo address I've used for a long time. (The drop-down won't let me change it or delete it.) Thanks.
Do you get a drop down list with suggestions if you clear that "from" field and click elsewhere on that page to move the focus off that field and then double-click again in that field or start typing the first letters of that unwanted email address?
Use these steps to remove saved (form) data from a drop down list:
#Click the (empty) input field on the web page to open the drop down list
#Highlight an entry in the drop down list
#Press the Delete key (on Mac: Shift+Delete) to remove it.

Depending upon the address (some Apple addresses can't be removed) then you may be able to remove it by logging into the account via the 'manage your apple id' link on http://appleid.apple.com

I can't remove previous owners email address from App Store so can't use - advice please!!
Settings/iTunes & App Stores. Tap the Apple ID. Tap Sign out. Then sign in with your Apple ID. However, if the phone still has Find my iPhone enabled with the previous owner's Apple ID then the phone will be useless to you until you get the previous owner to release Activation Lock on the phone.

Have been trying to figure out how to delete all of my sent mail on my IPad 2...it only lets me choose to Flag or Mark as Unread. It will take me hours to go through and check off each one. I have 2 years of emails in my sent folder!
Unfortunately, there is no way to select them all at once to delete them. You do have to select one at a time.

How to remove previously used email addresses from iphone?
After having his email account hacked, a friend gave me his new email address.
I have updated his contact information, BUT
everytime I write an email, or a text or a message, the old email address keeps coming up
as the first choice of my iPhone and iPad.
How do I remove the previous email address from my iPhone or iPad?
RegardsThe ONLY way, currently, to remove this data from an iOS device is to restore the device as "new" in iTunes, NOT from backup. This will, of course, erase all data on the device, including this contact data. You either do that, or you live with it.

so i sighned into someone elses device with the current icloud account and i sighned out. Some of the icloud data from the other device is now on mine. All i want to know is how to delete all the icloud data in my current icloud account from the other icloud account
Hello ,
I had the same problem and i have done everything manually.
It's a shame that Apple doesn't put a "Reset to factory Settings" button or simply "Delete all data from iCloud.com". That way, it would be much simpler for everyone including myself.
Winston Churchill is right unfortunately . Happy deleting !
Kind Regards,
Moonburn
