Email question - how do i change the name associated with my email account

If you mean the bit that comes before the @me.com, you can't, other than by creating a new account: but you can create up to three email 'aliases' which are additional addresses (not accounts) which deliver into the same inbox as the main address: indeed it's better to give out alias addresses than the main address since they can be changed quite easily.

    how do i change the name associated with my icloud

    If you are trying to change the iCloud ID to another ID, go to System Preferences>iCloud, sign out, then sign back in with the ID you want to use.
    If you are trying to change the name of your existing iCloud ID and not trying to change to a different ID, you can change the name of the ID as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5621.  After doing so, you'll need to sign out of the exising ID, then sign back in using the changed ID.

  • How to change the name associated with iCloud email alias??

    I had MobileMe on the iPhone with alias email addresses and I liked how it didn’t attach any “name” to an alias. For example, I had MainUserName, then for aliases I would have [email protected], [email protected], etc. When I sent an email from my iPhone using one of the aliases as the "from" no name would be associated with the alias email address. If it was the MainUserName then it would associate it, e.g. Main User <[email protected]> will show up on the "From" field when I sent an email. But with iCloud on the iPhone (and iPad), it’s Main User <[email protected]>, Main User <[email protected], etc., which I don’t want.  If anything it should be Alias 1 <[email protected]> or Alias 2 <[email protected]>.  Anyway, I don't want any name associated with the aliases, so when I send an email it will simply say [email protected] or just [email protected] with no name association. 
    It works differently if I access iCloud through a web browser.  If I send an email via iCloud on the web, I can customize and have a different name with each alias, e.g., Tom <[email protected]> or Harry <[email protected]>  And the customization carries over to the Mail app on my Mac.  That would be ideal if the customization carried over to the iPhone and iPad, but I'd be happy if there was no name association with alias email addresses.  Hopefully, there's a solution to the iPhone/iPad situation with iCloud as I don't want the name linked with the main iCloud email address linked with all the different email aliases I have.

  • Is there a way to change the icon associated with icloud account?

    Is there a way to change the icon associated with my iCloud account? It's currently a rose and i do not like it.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    Are you referring to your iCloud account picture or your user picture?
    It looks like you are referring to your user picture. To change it, open System Preferences > Users & Groups, press the picture box and choose the user picture you want from the ones that came by default. If you want to select a different picture stored on your Mac, drag that photo onto the picture box.
    If you want to change your iCloud account picture, open http://www.icloud.com and log in with your Apple ID. Then, press your name at the top right of the site and press the user picture. If you put the cursor on the picture box, you will see a button at the top of the box to change your picture

  • How can I change the name associated with an email address?

    I assumed an existing account but would like to change the tag name associated with it. Right now it is still showing up as a colleague's name.

    Hi Rossion,
    Firefox is a web browser. It displays the content of existing sites. Things like email or page contents come from the content provider. Who is your email provider? You'll probably have better luck consulting their help documentation. There should be a settings menu that allows you to change your personal account information.
    Hopefully this helps!

  • How do I change the names associated with numbers on my bill

    I have multiple numbers on my bill that have the wrong names associated with them.  I have tried calling *611 only to wait and then be disconnected. I am the account owner  and am unable to locate where to correct the information.

    Online, in My Verizon / View Usage / Minutes / Breakdown of Recent Activity / Current Call Log for Line / Select a Line, a log of calls incoming and outgoing since the last billing date are shown. For years, I would be able to click on the blue telephone number and a popup box would show up to Add/Update Nick Name. I would type in a name, for example, Mom and then click on Add/Update and the name would then replace the number in the listing. As of two months ago, I can still do this EXCEPT the name will NOT replace the number! This is so irritating as I have been assning names to the numbers for years for ease of search and identifying the calls. I have call ed Customer Servcie at least htree times on this issue. I have tried to Add/Edit Nick Name in two odfferent browsers (Internet Explorer as well as Firefox) and I have tried it on two dofferent laptops in two diofferent wireless networks. So I know it is NOT an issue with my hardware or networks. The issue is on Verizon's end. I am puzzled that others have not complained. Maybe I am the only doofud that likes to assign names to the numbers? But I would be most grateful if someone within the Community or Verizon's Customer Servcie can resolve this issue once and for all!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • How do I change the name associated with my email account on my PC?

    My mothers name is what appears when I send emails instead of mine.  I have found directions on how to change the name on a Mac but I have a PC. It is rather frustrating because I send out business emails and often times the receiver does not look at my signature block but instead replies to me addressing me by her name.

    By that you mean you log into the iCloud.com website?    Or are you using an email client like Outlook or Thunderbird?
    If you log into iCloud.com in your web browse, What name Appears at the top right corner when in Mail?
    If you use an email client which one?

  • How do I change the country associated with my account?

    I'm trying to activate my Creative Cloud membership but I purchased it on my US credit card and I'm currently located in Australia, so my Adobe account is set up in Australia. When I enter my code I get the following message: This card was purchased in a country that does not match your Adobe ID.
    Do I have to create a new Adobe ID with an alternate email? Or can I get around this somehow?

  • Changing e-mail associated with facetime account

    Does anyone know how to change the e-mail associated with a particular facetime account? I created two log-ins by mistake, and have my e-mail accounts attached to the wrong ones, but cannot switch them.

    I called tech support, and they told me that once an e-mail has been verified, they do not have any way to undo that so that an e-mail can be utilized with a different account. They suggested I write to iTunes tech support and ask them to do it... just did that...

  • Incorrect name associated with email account

    I have an email account setup on me.com and can't seem to change the username exmaple My Name <[email protected]>.  After searching the support site I found a few solutions such as changing it on the Apple ID site, and on the Mac preferences.  I even changed it by editing the email XML file and changing the User name.
    The user name is correct on the Apple ID site, account preferences on the Mac, iCloud settings, yet when I send an email the name attached to the account it wrong?? 
    Anyone have any recommendations?

    To change the "From" name on your Mac Mail, go to icloud.com, sign into your account, open Mail, click the gear shaped icon on the top right and choose Preferences, go to the Accounts tab and enter the name you want to use in the Full Name field and click Done.  Then quit Mail on your Mac and re-open it.  Your new From name should now appear in the drop-down list when you compose a new email.

  • How to change the name associated with my icloud email account?

    Hey there,
    I set an icloud account and for some strange reason, it took my second last name and not the first one (the one I use). So, if I send an email I feel it is not me. I just want to change the last name but I do not how to do it.
    Thanks,
    Eduardo

    Go to
    Settings---> Mail, Contacts, Calendars---> scroll down to Contacts to make sure that "My Info" is really your's and not your wife's.
    If that doesn't work, go onto a computer and...
    icloud.com (sign in)---> Mail---> Little gear in lower left corner of the screen---> Preferences---> Accounts---> Full Name

  • Wrong name associated with my account

    Running iChat 4.0, OS X 10.5.1 with my gmail account. I attempted to add a buddy (my aunt) and apparently did so incorrectly. Her name never showed up on my buddy list, and now when I set my account to "View as Name", HER name shows up instead of mine. I've tried deleting the account and starting over, but it must be cached somewhere because it keeps doing this. I've found several plist files related to iChat, but none of them have her name in them, so I don't think that's where it's getting this information.
    Anyone have any ideas?

    I hate when this happens.... I no sooner finished typing the initial post, when I decided to try one more thing, changing the "Description" field in the preferences. This worked. Oddly, the previous data in that field was NOT my aunt's name, but was my gmail account. Nevertheless, when I changed it to my name, it fixed the issue.
    Just wanted to update this in case anyone else ran into this issue.
