HT2493 Cannot get user icon changed

For some reason whenever I send a text a stupid pink flower icon appears.  I've gone into System Preferences, Users and Groups and changed the icon and have also done it in my Contacts, yet the same flower icon still appears in every text message.  Can someone solve the mystery?

Hi,
Hummm.
I just tried it on my Mountain Lion iMac.
Went to System Preferences > User and Groups > My accounts and clicked in the Pic to change.
Chose the pink daisy thing.
The My card and Buddy list pics did not change.
As to why...
That is probably about the way I have got to where I am.
During various version of iChat I have changed my Pic serveral times (possibly mnay times as in some Group chats I have changed it several times alone).
It has been the sig pic since iChat 4 at least and has been either Updated to new OS version or the Account Migrated as it has been to the iMac.
This means that com.apple.ichat.plist holds the current Pic and the path to Recent Pics and the associated .plist for that.
See ~/Library/Images/iChat Recent Pictures
It also seems that in Mountain Lion it also pulls the "Recent Lists" for the System Preferences Account pic as well as the Contacts > My Card one.
See this pic and the Pink Daisy thing
The Current pic always stays but the Recent Items lists the last choice wherever it was made.
I would guess if there are no other Recents  set up by other means then the Current one will change.
Having set mine individually there seems  to be no way to link them all again  (obviously I can make them all the same but they don't all change at one then).
May be we should change it to "If you have made changes to the various Pics invidiually you may have to change them individually" ?

  • Cannot get AirPlay icon

    Cannot get AirPlay icon

    I found it by accident too on ipad 3 after a software update, before the update I only had to double click the home button to bring up the control menu.
    In landscape mode, use any finger and starting from the outside margin/border of your ipad, anywhere along its length, just roll your finger in upwards direction to reveal the control menu - the icon for airplay will obviously only show once you have other devices to connect to , ie ATV etc
    Sorry if above seems to be spelt out for a child but some of us, including me who is new to
    Apple products, need instructions to follow easily !

  • Since upgrading to Firefox 8 I cannot get the icon for Microsoft word/exel in the top bar, how do I get it back?

    On previous versions I could get a quick start icon at the top of the page for various programs including Microsoft word and exel, these have now disappeared and I can't find how to reload them?

    Try this extension to set a favicon to a bookmark.

  • Cannot get emails after changing to pop account

    Telstra, my internet provider, required me to change my email settings to a pop account. I had no choice in this matter.
    I am told that this will gradually happen to all users over the next 12 months....!
    BUT..... now  my ipad will not receive or send emails! 
    I copied over new settings from laptop to ipad as advised.  This did not work. 
    I then re--synced ipad to laptop....this did not work. I have since found 'online' that there is a problem with ipads
    and 'pop' accounts
    Further contact with Telstra informed me that  they are not responsible for other devices and
    I will have to pay to get this problem  fixed.  This is a $99 set rate!
    Can anyone help me to reconfigure my ipad to receive and send emails?

    Did you already try the Mail assistant for iPad?
    On thing to keep in mind:
    iOS: 'Mailbox Locked', account is in use on another device, or prompt to re-enter POP3 password
    What to ask if you're having issues sending, receiving, or configuring Mail
    iOS: Unable to send or receive Mail
    I have no problems using my POP Mail account on my iPad.
    If you have copied the settings from your computer, make sure that all passwords have been added again by you, they might have been removed for security reasons during copy process.
    I started from the scratch by adding a new account, to be sure all settings were correct.
    Some accounts don't work using SSL, in that case set it up without using SSL

  • Cannot get user password expiration status with Jco 2.1

    I am using Jco 2.1. Is it possible to get the status of the user's password (expired or not) using Jco, or is there any BAPI which can do this task. I get an exception in Jco when the user is locked or does not have any access to the respective function groups, but no exceptions in this case. It allows the user to conenct to SAP even when the password has expried.
    In the code, I am using JCo Client connect and disconnect. It connects sucessfully, even when the password has expired in SAP.
    Many thanks in advance. Any pointers to this issue is appreciated.
    Regards,
    Siva

  • How do I re-set Google Search to my actual location? I can change back and forth in other browsers, but in Firefox my change is stuck on a different city and I cannot get it to change back.

    I changed my location in Google so I could do a search in another city. Then when I tried to change it back to my location, it stays stuck on the "other" city. I went into Google search settings and tried it on the search page and no changes were saved.
    I tried it on Chrome and Safari and had no problems going from one to another and having everything save as I wanted, yet in Firefox it does not change.

    User fonts, those not require by the OS, are in two locations;
    Mac HD/Library/Fonts
    ~/Library/Fonts
    I would see if the 11M+ fonts are in ~/Library/Fonts first. If so drag them to the Trash and restart.

    This is the case, if you use his Appple ID for Messages and FaceTime. Just go to "Settings > Messages > Send & Receive", click on the Apple ID and sign out. (Here you could sign in with your own account or if you do not already have one, then you could create a new account for you). After that go to "Settings > FaceTime" and do the same here.

  • Cannot get airplay icon on iPhone 4S, Cannot get airplay icon on iPhone 4S

    I am trying to airplay off of my iPhone 4S. Airplay worked twice about a month ago but now it doesn't work at all and on my iPhone I don't have the icon. I'm connected to the same internet network as the Apple TV and when I let it go idle , the screen suggests that I do airplay and connect to my internet(which I am) and choose "Apple TV"(which is the name of my Apple TV) and no airplay icons show on my iPhone or my iPad or any other apple device in the house.

    Hi, Simoneyponey. 
    I see that you are having issues with AirPlay.  Try closing multitasking by following the steps in the first article below.  I have also included an article that covers AirPlay troubleshooting.
