Im deleting my mail account but it keeps coming back. I want to reset

It keeps coming up with a problem when i try to send mail. Not sure exactly why, so i deleted hubbys account but then it started coming up with mine as the issue(it was his before, kept trying to send with his server name)
Anyway, im actually on a mobile me trial so its a @me.com but obviously still shows as @mac.com.
I thought maybe i should see if i could update mail server but thats not the issue.
I delete my account then sign out of mail but its there when i click it again.
Since this is the first real time im gonna be making use of a mac address and use this application, i need advice!

Quit Mail then try dragging these 2 files and this folder to the Desktop first, then reboot...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
/Users/YourUserName//Library/Caches/Mail
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/
Whole folder here.

Conflicting Apple-IDs on my iPhone! I try to delete the old one but it keeps coming back in iCloud as preset. Because of this, cant I reset or connect to iTunes.

Hi, I try to reset my iPhone but in order to do that I need to turn off the "Find my iPhone" function.
As it is, the app requests pw for my old Apple ID which is since way back obsolete. I cant access iTunes either because of the same reason so it is a catch 22 situation I am stuck in. What to do?

If the old iCloud ID is your ID, and if your new iCloud ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

I have an older I-Pad and have daily recurring spam. Always the same and some going back to January. I delete them every day and they delete them in the trash folder but they keep coming back. How do I get rid of them ?

For those kind of mails, unsubscribing doesn't work. they're breaking the law trying to scam you, they're not going to respect unsubscribe. Unsubscribe only works with real companies. Such as unsubscribing from Gap company mail etc. Spammers can actually use the 'unsubscribe' as a confirmation 'hey, there's a real person here, hit em hard'
I'm not really familiar with g-mail, but most mail programs have filters you can set up, such as telling it 'everything with dating in the title, send to the trash' etc.
You can do some research on that or have someone help you with some hands on help.
If that e-mail has ever been used for e-greeting cards, or given to enter contests, etc, your address is out there. You will never get rid of it totally.
If it's really, really bad, sometimes what you have to do is abandon the address and get a new one and only give it out to people you want to contact you. Don't enter it on websites, or use e-cards or things like that that are spam collection mechanisms.

Can you sign-in to the My Apple ID site?
If you can, you might be able to sign into Game Center from a app that supports it.

What is your Aperture version? And where is your Aperture library located?
Are you syncing your library in any way? With Facebook, Flickr, Photo Streams?
Where did you delete the photos from? from an album, web album, project? Did you empty the Aperture trash and the trash on your desktop?

Can you explain what you mean? You can't apply parental controls to your own (admin) account - only to other user accounts. Are you the admin on your computer?

I have an add on that keeps popping up called object browser. I have removed it several times but it keeps coming back. Any way to get rid of it for good?

I keep trying to remove it but it keeps coming back.

That's a potentially unwanted program. You can get rid of it by simply uninstalling the program, or using an anti-malware if all else fails.
First of all, try uninstalling the Object Browser program.
'''To uninstall the Object Browser program...'''
#Press the Windows Key+C simultaneously on your keyboard to bring up the Charms bar.
#Search for ''Programs and Features''.
#Click the ''Programs and Features'' search result.
#In ''Programs and Features'', find ''Object Browser'' and uninstall it from your computer.
#After uninstalling the program completely (and restarting your computer if you had to in order to complete the uninstallation), open Firefox, go to your Add-ons page, and remove the ''Object Browser'' add-on.
If that didn't solve your problem, try some anti-malwares.
'''To scan for Object Browser...'''
'''''ADW Cleaner'''''
#Download ADW Cleaner from its [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ website].
#Open the downloaded file to start ADW Cleaner.
#Scan for malware using the program.
#Clean any infections.
'''''Malwarebytes'''''
#Download Malwarebytes from [http://malwarebytes.org this link].
#Open the downloaded file to install the program.
#Upon completion of installation, run the program and scan for malware.
#Remove any detected threats.

My password keeps coming back incorrect, I have reset it 3 times now and it will not accept it on my iTunes to update on my phone or pad

my password keeps coming back incorrect, I have reset it 3 times now and it will not accept it on my iTunes to update on my phone or pad. It obviously is the right password since I was able to log in here...

Firstly like King Penguin says log out ,i would clear cookies and history in the safari settings, then I would restart the unit and then open up ITunes and try using the last PW you entered when you changed it.Cookies can be a bugger.

Deleting a Mail Account But Keeping the Mail From That Account

I want to delete a Mail Account. But, I want to keep all of the email that was associated with that account. If I move the email to another folder within Mail, will that do the trick?

Stephen Levin wrote:
OK, I'm totally confused.
Here is what I normally do:
Check my email (all POP accounts).
It comes into my inbox.
As I deal with a message, I move it from my Inbox to the appropriate folder On My Mac.
That way I end up with just a few emails in my Inbox at any time.
The way I move my messages is I select them and I drag them to the appropriate folder On My Mac.
I know this deletes them from the Inbox and adds them to the folder I am moving them to.
that's moving. when you copy, the original remains in the inbox and a copy is added to the destination folder.
But, I'm pretty sure that when I do so, the Activity Window says I am copying them.
I have several email accounts that people email me at. When I file messages away, they are all mixed up in the folders On My Mac. I have no idea which ones came from which Accounts.
Given all of the above info, if I delete one of my Accounts, will Mail delete some of the emails I have filed away in the folders On My Mac? I think the answer is No, but would like to confirm.
No, once you've moved an email to a local mailbox in "on my mac" it's completely separated from its original email account. if you delete an account it will have no effect on those messages.
I think that the only mail that Mail will delete is the email in the Inbox, Trash, Outbox, and Sent Mail for that Account, but am looking for confirmation.
that's correct.
If that is the case, I don't care about the Trash, I'll make sure the Outbox is empty, and I'll move all of the messages for that Account out of the Inbox and Sent Mail before I delete the Account.
What do you think, will that work?
yes. sorry for confusing you before. This should work just fine.
My suggestion was simply that you copy messages instead of moving them as you've been doing. once the copy is successful you can delete the originals or just delete the account and the originals with it. you don't have to do it but that's a safer operation then moving them directly when you have to do it with a lot of messages at once. That's all. I've seen posts by people who were trying to move large numbers of emails between mailboxes and had Mail choke on the operation. that can result in a loss of emails.
If not, how can I hide the Account I'm no longer planning on using. Right now Mail keeps trying to check it every time I check my Mail and I get that broken icon next to the folders.
In case the OS matters, I'm running the latest version of 10.5 on a Power PC.
Thanks!

How can I delete already deleted mail...it keeps coming back?

I keep deleting mail from both my inbox & all mail folders but it keeps reappearing? Any suggestions how to really delete?

What folders do they reappear in? Is this a gmail account?

I deleted the Free song of the week, but it keeps coming back!

I downloaded a free song, decided I didn't want it and deleted. But with iCloud, it keeps coming back. It messes with my smart playlists to have this song keep popping up. Any way to fix without turning off auto downloads? Thanks

You must have an iCloud account, and on the iPhone gone to Settings > iCloud and turned ON Find My Phone. Then login to the iCloud account, click Find My Phone and IF the iPhone is turned on and connected to the internet it will show up.
If any one of those steps is missing it will not show up.
If you get a message that you have not registered it with iCloud, then you did not turn on Find My Phone on the iPhone.
There is no other way of trackng the device.

My dad clicked something in his email and now all his old emails are coming into the inbox.I deleted them but they keep coming back. Does anyone know what he did wrong and how to fix it? thanks!

Someone is sending out viruses in my name. theklamccartneuy38625 is the email that keeps trying to send me messages. I delete it, but it keeps coming back? Any suggestions?

Someone is sending out viruses in my name. I keep getting a message that "theklamccartney38625" is sending me a message. I think this is the person that has accessed my system. What can I do?
Thanks,
Duwayne

When this happens, it may not be your system that is sending out the bad emails. They may have picked up your email address from someone else's Address Book and are sending out emails and spam using forged email headers.
If you or someone you know can get hold of one of the bad emails, view the full headers, and you can sometimes see where it came from. You can try complaining to the ISP that runs that block of addresses.
You may need to "cut-and-paste" the full headers into a new email and send it to the webmaster of the ISP hosting that block of addresses.
