IMail: How can I set mail preferences to display actual email address and not short names.

Even though I have it correctly set in Preferences , i.e. "Use Smart Addresses" is unchecked, the addressee automatically changes to the person's name rather than the email address.   I am unable to find a way to display the actual email address option on iMail (Yosemite)  I do not want nicknames/short names but want the actual email address to display on my address line.   Can anyone advise please?

Thanks, Ernie
I wasted about 20 minutes looking for it and couldn't find it
cheers,
tom

  • I cannot play some songs on itunes, I get a prompt for an old email address which not longer exists and I don't know the password.  HOw can I get them authorized to my new email address and password?

    I cannot play some songs on itunes, I get a prompt for an old email address which no longer exists and I don't remember the password.  How can I get these tunes transferred to my new email address and password?

    In one of the help pages for managing your Apple ID (http://support.apple.com/kb/HE40), it shows two separate sections, one for Apple ID and one for Primary Email address. When I go to manage my Apple ID, I see only a single section for both. Can the two be 'separated', especially when you face the situation of having to discontinue your email address for some reason?
    I also noticed that when navigating to Apple ID Support Communities, it shows my nickname 'dishdy'. How and when did I insert this? In the current sequence for creating an Apple ID I don't see this. In my current profile I don't see this.
    In any case, I have freed myself from my previous Apple ID (@artemis.it) on my iPhone.
    Thanks for your help.

  • How can I set service preferences with Safari 5.0.5 and os 10.6.8?  Was working fine until combined update install.

    My service preferences won't set after installing combined update earlier this week and the security 2012-4 update that caused so much problem with mail. Is there a list of changes that was  made in safari with this latest update, because the bookmarking isn't working the same and the readling list page is  gone?

    because the bookmarking isn't working and the same and the reading list page is gone?
    Your profile indicates you have v10.7.2 installed yet your topic refers to v10.6.8 (Snow Leopard).
    Try this...
    Open System Preferences > iCloud
    Deselect the box next to Safari then reselect it.
    Give iCloud a few minutes to re sync your bookmarks and reading list.
    Safari 5.0.5 is an outdated version. You need to update Safari.
    Click your Apple menu icon top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click Software Update...
    Restart your Mac after the updates are installed.

    Does anyone know how to set-up Apple TV2 to remember the NetFlix Email ID and password? It would be much easier to have automatically open each time I use it then to have to reenter every time I turn on the AppleTV2

    Your Apple TV 2 should be saving your login info for Netflix. Are you finding you have to re-enter your login info for anything else like your iTunes account?

  • How can I set Mail to show only one email at a time

    Mail will group emails based on subject or sender and then I keep losing or missing emails because they get buried in a thread. Sometimes under another persons name!
    I'm old and easily confused.
    I just want one email per line. No grouping. Can't seem to figure out how.
    Thanks!

    Hi Keefer-in-space!
    You may need to try turning off the “Include related messages” setting in the preferences of your Mail program:

  • How can I teach my server that a specific email address is not spam?

    I have 2 clients that are located in China. Their emails periodically get tagged as SPAM although I repeatedly redirect them to [email protected]
    Is there way to just tell this beast to trust anything coming from these two addresses?
    Thanks,
    Keith

    Mmmm. Sounds like an odd error to get. What log is this? Works OK in 10.4.7. Are you 10.4 or earlier? Anybody know if things are different in 10.3?
    File: /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf ?
    The command "spamassassin --lint" will run a check on the local.cf file and flag up any errors. There are (I think) 5 ignorable issues it has with the default file but it will actually list the lines so you can easily see if it has an issue with specific entries. You can run --lint without restarting mail services so the file will not yet be 'live' and can be re-edited without interupting the mail services.
    Just-in-case, stop & start mail services using "serveradmin stop/start mail" command (when you want to make changes live) rather than via the Admin button. I think it was Pterobyte that noted that this is safer (due to GUI caches or something).

  • My daughter and i share same itunes account but we want to separate and have our own. if i change "our" account to "her" account how can i set up a new "for me only" account and retrieve all my contacts and apps

    my daughter and i share the same i tunes account but want to have our own now. how can i set up a new account just for me and still move or transfer my existing apps, contacts etc?

    Yes, with the credentials of the account that the media/content was purchased with.
    Content is permanently tied to the account it is purchased with and cannot be merged, moved, or transferred to another account.

  • HT204053 I did not know my kids had set up an Itunes account for me with one user name and password.  then i got an i phone and set it up with a different email address and new password.  how can i get my accounts to merge so i can have all of my music on

    Quote: "You cannot merge two or more Apple IDs into a single one. You can, however, use one Apple ID for iCloud services and another Apple ID for store purchases (including iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match). See “Using one Apple ID for iCloud and a different Apple ID for Store Purchases” above for details." See also Apple ID & iCloud FAQ: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4895?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    You can set up your iCloud account on your iOS device under: "Settings > iCloud" and a other account for store purchases under "Settings > iTunes & App Stores". Unfortunately merging accounts is not possible but you could transfer all of your music manually via iTunes from your Mac or PC.

  • I have to reinstall Mail as it's not working well. How can I make a back up of my emails so as not to lose them all?

    I have to reinstall Mail as it's not working well. How can I make a back up of my emails so as not to lose them all?

    Thank you for your time Woody. Recently the Mac seems to freeze a lot, seemingly due to a problem with the airport, especially if the computer is inactive for anything more than a few minutes. Then yesterday I suddenly couldn't send or receive messages so I got in touch with my server and they reconfigured the mail account. I can now receive messages but can't send them, always getting a timed out message when I try to send an email. I phoned the server again and they said it must be a problem with Mail as we tried sending a message online from the server's webpage and it worked fine, so they suggested I reinstall Mail. So hence my original question. Sorry for the rambling! I'm not very computer minded.

  • How can I download/update my contacts between my MacBook address and my iPhone 5?

    Hi,
    Can anyone help me on this problem?
    How can I download/update my contacts between my MacBook address and my iPhone 5? They don't sync with each other.  Thanks

    Welcome to Apple Discussions, Catwang!
    You can use iTunes to sync the two devices. See the KB article, iOS: How to transfer or sync content to your computer and iTunes for Mac: sync contacts, calendar and other info.
    If you want to use iCloud, your MacBook  needs to use at least OS 10.7.4 or later. See Set up iCloud on all your Devices.

  • How could I set the proxy settings for just some URLs and not for all?

    Hello,
    I am using HttpURLConnection to establish a HTTP connection . The connection pass through a proxy, and it requires security.
    I know that I can set the proxy settings in the system properties, and this works perfect.
    But I don't want to set the proxy settings in the system properties, because this proxy settings will be for ALL the URLs, and I just want for a few URLs.
    How could I set the proxy settings for just some URLs and not for all?

  • I have 3 email addresses with my ISP.  How do I set up my iPhone to receive emails addressed from any one of these addresses

    I have 3 email addresses with my ISP.  How do I set up my iPhone to receive emails addressed from any one of these addresses

    Even though they share the same incoming and outgoing server settings, each is a distinct account, so you just need to set up 3 accounts on your iPhone, one for each email address.
    Or, since these are all from the same ISP, do they have online account management tools to let you forward two of those to the one account you want to be the "master" account?  You still may want separate accounts on your iPhone though, as an account can only have one address associated with it for the "reply" field when responding to emails.

  • How can I transfer photos from my  iMac to my iPad and not lose the ones already stored on the iPad.

    How can I transfer photos from my  iMac to my iPad and not lose the ones already stored on the iPad?  When using iTunes to sync a folder from the iMac to the iPad it always removes anything previously synced.
    Help appreciated

    I've just found out the reason for this behaviour. I am syncing from a computer which is different to the one I first synced with. iTunes can't cope with this situation so deletes anything synced from another source.
