IOS 8 Bug: In Mail the sender account defaults back to last account from which an e-mail was sent overriding the default account setting

I cannot get over it ... how can a company that designs such wonderful hardware write such poor software? Apple should really feel ashamed. Anyone Windows-bashing should realise that computing is about more than just fancy screen backgrounds. I am so sick of this.
Anyway - here is my latest bug report (which as an IT professional I should charge Apple my time for):
When you access multiple mail accounts from your iPhone (iOS 8.2 12D508) you need to specify a default mail account. This is (or at least used to be in working implementations of this feature in previous iOS versions) the mail account that mails will be sent from unless the user selects another account.
The problem in the current iOS version is: After sending a mail from a non-default account, the next mail will also be sent from the same non-default account rather than from the actual default account. The incorrect sender account gets selected after picking a mail recipient.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Send an e-mail from a manually selected non-default mail account on your iPhone.
2. Start composing another e-mail. Initially, the correct default account is shown as sender account.
3. Now select a recipient address.
==> This is when the sender mail account reverts to the last e-mail account that a mail was sent from (in our case the non-default account).
Temporary Work-Around:
When the sender account reverts to the non-default account, manually select the default account again.
Apple, please go and do your homework! Fix this annoying bug. Thank you.

I can't see anything genuine about it!
Since the link to the Apple id: Tips for...   actually says it goes to a site named "bingo", I think it's quite clear that this is a phishing email, designed to get you to click on and go to their site, not an Apple one. I hope you have not clicked on the link.
It is not a good idea to put your own persoanl information in a post on a public forum. I will ask our hosts to remove it and the link. Don't be surprised if they remove the entire thread.

  • Search account got - Insufficient sql database permissions for user. EXECUTE permission was denied on the object proc_Gettimerrunningjobs

    Dear all,
    I am troubleshooting a critical error showed up on Event log.  It said:
    Insufficient sql database permissions for user 'Name:domain\wss_search ....... EXECUTE permission was denied on the object 'proc_GetTimerRunningJobs', database 'SharePoint_Config', schema 'dbo'
    domain\wss_search is the default content access account. According to
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc678863.aspx I should not grant it the Farm Administrators permission.
    In the Search Center I am able to search out documents as expected so I think the search service is fine.   However I have no clue why this account is trying to access 'proc_GetTimerRunningJobs'.
    Mark

    Hi Mark,
    This issue was caused by the search account’s permission. For resolving your issue, please do as the followings:
    Expand your SharePoint Configuration database 'SharePoint_Config' and navigate to ‘proc_GetTimerRunningJobs’ under Programmability ->Stored Procedures
    Right-click proc_GetTimerRunningJobs and choose Properties
    Click on Permission on the left launch
    Select the Search button and browse for ‘WSS_Content_Application_Pools’
    Provide ‘Execute’ permissions for ‘WSS_Content_Application_Pools’
    Click OK

  • I was having ios 4.3 and decided to upgrade to ios 5 and in doing so I lost all my apps despite I restored from my earlier back up. The itunes I've backed up is different from the itunes I have used to upgrade-..

    I was having ios 4.3 and decided to upgrade to ios 5 and in doing so I lost all my apps despite I restored from my earlier back up. The itunes I’ve backed up is different from the itunes I have used to upgrade….. I was wondering if I can get back my apps that were purchased using different apple ID (not mine). Since I am in Ethiopia doesn’t even have the chance to buy it again. I have searched it in my computer/c/user/adminstrator….but couldn’t find it. Anyone p/l help

    When I updated my iPhone to IOS 5, I did it from my MB Air, when my iPhone's "home" is my work 27" iMac. I figured I could just download the new OS at home where internet is fast and then sync at office and be done. 
    WRONG!!!  So, like others here, all my apps were "gone."
    Following some of what I read above, I did the following and now all my apps that I purchased in the past are downloading to my 27". 
    In iTunes I went to Purchased, under "Store" in left column of iTunes.
    Then at the bottom of the Purchased screen was something like Download all apps, borrom right (sorry, cant see it now, its downloading all of them).  Once I hit that, I could see all my apps and it looks like they are all coming back.
    Now all I have to do is put them all like I had them before, folders, etc.  That will be a pain BUT at least I have all of them.

    I have a new computer and I am trying to find a link to download photoshop elements premier 11 the link I was sent by the tech only shows what I need...what I need is an actual download button

    This is actually the Photoshop forum. Premiere Elements forum is here
    Premiere Elements
    I assume you realise that 11 is not the current version, which is now up to 12
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=premiere_elements&loc=us
    And if yes, that you had 11 installed on your last computer?   Did that come on a disk or download?  If disk, have you now lost that disk?
    If yes, and you registered your software, log on to your Adobe account, and find My Orders (or similar).  You may find the download link and your serial number there.

    I have recently just bought an iPad but before I purchase anything I need to answer my security questions, I don't remember the answers, I went to  forgotten my security questions answers but them email was sent to my old email address

    If the email hasn't arrived after a few hours and isn't in a spam filter, you need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, or clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed in either article, filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

    Keep in mind that just because a device may not be upgradeable to the latest iOS release does not mean it cannot continue to work just fine on the last update it did get.  There will be many devices that were incompatible with iOS 7 that will continuing to work just fine on iOS 6 for a long time yet.  There are many people still using their iPad 1 despite the fact it stopped getting iOS updates after iOS 5.1.1.
    One way to safeguard your apps against future incompatible versions is to keep a backup of all your apps in iTunes on your computer.  That way, if an update to the app comes out that is not backwards compatible with your iOS, you still have a copy of the last version of the app that was compatible with your device and your iOS release.

    You can't install 9.2.1 or earlier on any Mac that is only Mac OS X bootable. In fact you need to use the restore disks which came with those Macs to install 9.2.2 on those Macs. 8.6 is only possible to install on Macs which came with 8.6 or earlier. The 9.1 disk may be useful for your 1999 PowerMac G4, but won't be of any use for a 2006 Powerbook G4.

    My podcasts do not show the pictures only the sound when I import them to iTunes from Garage Band.  How do I get the pictures to show up in iTunes?

    Well, all I can tell you is that if your file is an m4a with chapter markers, those markers having suitably sized images attached, and you drag it into the Music area of iTunes (so that it appears as a song) in List view, when you play it and then command-click on the small image in the header (next to the progress bar) you should see your embedded images.
    If this isn't happening the best place to ask would be in the GarageBand forum: my own experience of GB is rather out of date and in any case I've never used it for podcasting.

    Since I installed the latest PSE12 update, when I download images from my camera into Organizer on my iMac, the application freezes.  If I "force quit" then it seems to download them, but will do nothing else, including verifying and deleting the images from my camera.  It worked fine prior to the update.
