I cannot delete or add e-mail addresses

When I add a address it is gone the next time I open. When I delete a address it reappears when I open it again.

Are you talking about a contact in the address book, or an email account?

TS3276 No matter what I do (Previous Recipients), I cannot delete an old e-mail address

I have one e-mail address, that no matter what I do, I cannot delete it from my list. I have tried previsous recipients, but it won't show up so that I can delete it. But, whenever I send an e-mail to this person, their old address comes up as a choice. I want it to go away.

That was the problem. I thought the only way to get rid of it was in "Previous Recipients". Thanks.

How do i delete contacts in my mail address book

how do i delete contacts in my mail address book

You don't, if you're referring to addresses that appear when you click the "Address" button.. Mail is just reading from the Address Book application's data. Open the standalone Address Book and you can edit and remove contacts there.
If you want to clear the list of addresses that pop up as suggestions but that are not in your address book, go to the Window menu and select "Previous Recipients". You can edit or clear that list from there.
Regards.

HT5621 how can I delete a primary e-mail addresse and replace it with a excisting Apple ID?

How can I delete a primary e-mail address and replace it with a excisting Apple ID?

An email address can only be used one account at a time, so if you want to replace it with an email address that is currently being used on another account then you will need to remove it from that account first before trying to put it on that account. You should be able to change the email address either by logging into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option, or via http://appleid.apple.com

HT5312 I've forgot security question and answer, how can I add rescue mail address and how can I reset my security question and answer?

I've forgot security question and answer, how can I add rescue mail address and how can I reset my security question and answer?

You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, clicking here and picking a method for your country, and filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

Deleting an obsolete e-mail address

How do you delete an obsolete e-mail address from game centre?

All suggestions come from your address books. You are going to have to find the old addresses and edit or remove then.
You have two address books by default. The personal and the collected books. Check them both and any other books you may have created.
There is a button to open the address book window.

Deleting Old Outlook E-mail Address and Adding a New One

I am using an SMT5800 and have recently moved. In my previous location, my phone was synced to my workplace Outlook E-mail address. Since moving, I have tried repeatedly to update my Outlook E-mail settings to match my new workplace. Unfortunately, when attempting to change the Outlook settings, the phone does not allow me to remove my old username. Since the phone also does not allow me to simply delete the old Outlook address and simply start over, I remain unable to Active Sync with my current place of employment. How might I go about rectifying this?

I assume you were using MS Exchange for your work. If you can not delete the old account then you do have a problem. This should not be an issue. First back up your phone, Contacts, Settings etc using a backup program like PPCPIMbackup(free) or SPB backup or equivalent. For this message I used PPCpim Backup and backed up all my data to my storage card. Next start ACTIVESYNC on the phone, click MENU>OPTIONS and delete the Exchange account there. Then establish a account with your new workplace. Once the account is established Start PPCPIM backup and restore just the info you want, i.e. contacts etc. That should work.

Add E-mail Address to Address Book

Hi,
I'm having some trouble with situations like this:
I have somebody in my address book, and I have his mobile number only. He sends me an e-mail, which I receive in Mail for OS X. I want to add this e-mail address to the existing card in Address Book. But when I click on the e-mail address in Mail, and the drop-down menu comes up, the only options I can see are:
Copy Address
New Message
Open in Address Book
Create Smart Mailbox
Spotlight, "First Name Last Name"
Choosing, "Open in Address Book" opens that card in Address Book, but doesn't add the e-mail address in question to it! Does anybody know how to do what I am trying to do? It is something that should be simple!

I understand that they are two different pieces of software. I just meant that they were coded by people who adhere to the same philosophy when it comes to functionality.
What, then, is the purpose of the "Open in Address Book" command? If Joe Smith sends me an e-mail, and I click on his e-mail address and select "Open in Address Book" from the drop down menu, it will open Address Book and show me Joe Smith's card with his existing mobile number. But it won't add the e-mail address I just clicked on to that card. That seems asinine to me. I suppose this cuts down on a few of those six steps, but it is ridiculous that I still have to manually enter the e-mail address once I get to the card.

How do I delete an incorrect e-mail address from my e-mail history?

I accidentally typed in the wrong e-mail address when filling out a form and now Firefox remembers that e-mail address. How do I delete it from the history?

Next time that box and option comes up just highlight the option that is incorrect in the dropdown list and press the keyboard delete key. (Mac users: shift + del)

Cannot delete a Mailbox in Mail

I have a mail box that i set up in an earlier attempt to try and use Mail.
Now i am back trying Apple Mail again and i wish to delete this old Mail box.
There are some things very strange happening in regard to this box,
Firstly, and most annoying i cannot delete it i have tried everything deleting it in the finder as well as via the Delete Mailbox command in Mail and nothing seems to work, well to be honest it appears to work, then some hours or days later...back it comes.
Also a few of my current mail messages are being put into this old mail box..... i have no rules doing anything like this so what is putting them in here is a mystery and why i cannot get rid of the complete mailbox is driving me nuts.......
Is it safe to remove the mail prefs? or will that cause utter mayhem and destruction?
Any help would be appreciated.
thx
John

Hey BSK_AplSprtCm,
Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues with your Mail account. It sounds like you may need to configure which mailbox is your Trash mailbox. To do so, see the following:
Mail (Mavericks): If messages aren’t stored where expected on the mail server
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14957
If there’s another mailbox on the IMAP server (for example, Sent Items) that contains the messages you’re looking for, you can have Mail use that mailbox to store messages. To do so, select that mailbox (listed under the account’s name and icon) in the Mail sidebar, choose Mailbox > Use This Mailbox For, then choose Drafts, Sent, Trash, or Junk, as applicable. You can select any mailbox on your IMAP server to store draft, sent, deleted, or junk messages. If Mail can’t upload messages to a server mailbox, copies of the messages aren’t saved.
Thanks,
Matt M.

Cannot respond to embedded e-mail addresses on commercial sites

When I click on an embedded e-mail address on a commercial site, I get an error message with no content or explanation for why the e-mail address can't be responded to

Do you have an email client installed and set up on your PC? What browser are you using when this occurs?
The mailto links will attempt to open the email client that your browser is configured to use. We need to figure out where the breakdown is occuring in order to try to fix it.

Cannot modify or add contacts to Address Book

I tried updating a contact today by adding a new phone number and everything seemed to be okay until I quit and restarted Address Book. When address book loaded again, the new phone number was gone. I tried this again with several contacts and tried creating a new contact and I can confirm that the address book is not saving changes or saving new contacts after a quit and re launch of Address Book.
I've tried rebooting and repairing permissions, same problem.
Console is giving me the error:
9/6/09 11:32:44 AM Address Book[212] couldn't write file '/Users/jax/Library/Application Support/AddressBook/Metadata/C49788A4-134A-11D9-8A52-000A95CCEC6C:ABPerson.abcd p'
But there is no explanation of why it cannot write the file.
I am running a new clean install of Snow Leopard with minimal installed software and I imported an address book archive that I exported from Leopard 10.5.8.
I tried deleting my entire ~/Application Support/AddressBook folder and re importing the old address book database, and I get the same issue.
If I delete ~/Application Support/AddressBook and then launch address book and attempt to add or modify a contact in my new empty address book, all of the sudden all my old contacts appear even after deleting the ~/Application Support/AddressBook folder. Where are they coming from.
Is it just me or is AddressBook in SnowLeopard incredibly buggy?

I have had zero problems with Mail in Snow Leopard - it's been rock solid and very reliable for me.
I sort of cured the AddressBook problem but I have no idea why it works and I am not happy with my fix. What I did was deleted the contents of ~/Application Support/AddressBook and ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.AddressBook and ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.addressbook.plist. I then rebooted and opened up AddressBook. The database was empty except for Apple and my own card which OSX creates by default. I then attempted to create a new contact and all of my old contacts magically appeared! I then deleted the new test contact and edited the contact I was originally trying to add a phone number to. I then quit address book and re-launched it and the new phone number was still there! I checked console.log and there were no errors reported this time (previously I was getting lots of error messages each time I quit and re-launched AddressBook.
I have no idea where those contacts came from since I cleared out the entire database and the cache, but whatever happened, it seems to work now.
BUGGY!
