  • How to turn off email auto forward?

    I have a 3G iphone and it's set up to retrieve email from my gmail account. I don't know how, but it has started trying to auto-forward my email to another account (my work blackberry). The emails don't go through so I keep getting a failure to send message for each email I have been receiving. I looked in settings and I don't see anything set up to forward email, I'm not sure how it started in the first place. How can I turn off the auto-forwarding?

    The forwarding would not be on your iPhone but on your GMail account. Using a browser, go into your Gmail settings and look at one of the top tabs that says "Forwarding and POP/IMAP" Turn off forwarding there.

  • How to turn off email and web site links?

    I'm making my own letterhead template for my massage business.
    I want to turn off the automatic linking to my email address and web site which are both included on my letterhead. It's just annoying that every time I accidentally click on either of those I'm taken to my web site or my computer is trying to email me!
    I only snail mail my letterhead and have no use for the linking. I can change the type format so it looks like the rest of the letterhead, but I can't turn off the linking.

    There is an option under Preferences > Auto-Correction to "Automatically detect email and web addresses." You want that one unchecked. There is also a link inspector, second from the right, with options to enable hyperlinks or make all hyperlinks inactive. Seems contradictory to me & I've found that if a document already has some linked text, changing these preferences doesn't change the existing links. And, if you paste in something with a link the link will still be active.

  • How to turn off email auto download?

    Hi All,
    I'm running Tiger (10.4) on one hard drive and I'm running Leopard (10.5) on another - working on familiarizing myself and looking for problems. 10.4 uses Mail.app 2.1.3 while 10.5 uses Mail.app 3.5.
    With Mail 3.5 - I've been unable to find a way to switch from auto-downloading of emails in favor of "Manual." This "feature" of auto-dowloading emails has always bugged me (a lot). So I use "Manual" downloading with v. 2.1.3. and want the same "sanity" with 3.5.
    Secondary problems: I notice that 3.5 cannot verify the certificate of my ISP Pop server and keeps warning me "this may be a fake certificate" and gives me options to "stop" or "connect." Geez, there's no doubt about the SAME certificate when using Mail.app 2.1.3.
    Also, it appears that Mail 3.5 is taking "forever" to send (upload) image attachments. I haven't had a chance to really track this down, but it seems like Mail may be converting every .jpg file to .png - which increases file size. I watched the Activity window and saw upload speeds of from 0 to 2.7 kbs - but suddenly the indicator bar jumps ehead and the mail is sent.
    Any have any idea how to stop auto-downloading of emails with Mail.app 3.5?
    Any further help with those secondary problems will also be appreciated.
    TX in advance.

    Thanks Klaus1 - it's interesting to see that Apple designers still have not caught on to the idea that "icons" for important things need to be distinguishable from one another.
    That is, the icon for the overall preferences panel (in 10.4) looks a whole lot like the icon used for Mail 3.5 prefs (in 10.5) and it's located in the same spot as overall prefs on Mail 2.1.5. So I naturally thought the icon on 3.5 was for "overall prefs" and ignored it. Thanks Apple, for letting your employees take so many naps during their work shifts.
    You get a "helpful" for your post. Now if I can get responses on the slow upload (on DSL) by Mail.app and figure out why it doesn't recognize my (national based) ISP's certificate, I'll be a happy camper.

  • Safari and webmail email alerts - how to turn off?

    One of the webmails I use has annoying feature - it alerts me with every incoming email. Safari icon starts to jump at the Dock and a small window appears telling me that I have email!
    I have searched my webmail settings but there is no way to turn it off. So there should be one at the Safari or Mac settings but I did not find anything there either! I have turned off pop-ups but apparently this small "thing" that appears is not considered a pop-up.
    Can anyone help me how to turn off this distraction?

    It's all or nothing. You can to selectively get notifications for one account and not the others. As for g-mail, how do you have it set up? If it's not set to poll automatically, or set up as push (as an Exchange account), then you won't be notified until you maually open the mail client and pull it down.

  • How to turn off receiving apple support communities emails

    how to turn off receiving apple support communities emails on imac and ipad?

    In addition ,you can  go to Your Stuff - Profile- Manage Email Notifications (in the upper right hand Actions box) - either check individual threads to remove or click in the top box which will check all the threads and then click on Remove Email Notifications.
    Also check the tutorial for managing email subscriptions
    You might also make sure that you haven't subscribed to one of the communities by mistake. 
    Go to the community that you are receiving the emails from and the same box called "Actions" will appear there just like it does next to the individual question.  Make sure that you are not reciveing email notifications for that community.  Probably the community  where you asked your question.  Typically that is what causes people to get 100's of email notifications. I think that this is not included in the tutorial so a lot of people miss it.

    - 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.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
