IPhone 5S Email, Name misspelled??

Just got a new iPhone 5s, and I have noticed that when I send emails via the phone, my last name is misspelled!
It is correct in my contacts and in my Apple ID. Any ideas on how to fix

Zach,
I found the answer as soon as I posted this...settings, mail calendar etc, to gmail to account, and boom!
There it was!!
Thanks!

Iphone att email name

what is our email name for our phone is like [email protected] i need our email name not our text email name

phnx99,
As discussed on AT&T's website about SMS messaging, emails sent to [email protected] are received as SMS messages.
You can configure many different kinds of email accounts, including free accounts from Yahoo or GMail, on the iPhone, and provide people with that email address to send to you. Those would count as data, and not SMS messages.
Hope this helps,

When I got my new iphone 4, I gave my wife my old iphone. She has her own Apple Id but the icloud on her phone is in my email name account. If I delete it to create her own icloud account, will I loose my stuff on my icloud account?

Welcome to the Apple community.
When you delete the old account from the phone, the data is only deleted from that device, it is not deleted from the cloud. As such you will not lose the data off your phone either.

Name misspelled when I send email from iPod

New iPad user and set up my gmail act on iPad. When I send an email it misspells my forst name on the from line. Does not happen on ,y PC. What setting did I mess up?

Go into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and then select the account on the right-hand side. If it's an IMAP account then select the Account and check your name; if it's a POP account then you'll go straight into the account's details. Touch 'Done' when you've finished doing any corrections. You may need to properly exit the Mail app in order for the change(s) to take effect.

My husband registered an iphone in his name and have given it to me. I have an ipad registered in my name. How can I change the iphone to my name and sync both devices.

You can create up to 3 alias addresses but you have to do this on icloud.com from your computer browser. This article explains how: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2622. Also, incoming email to an alias address will go to your current iCloud inbox so it really isn't a separate account; just a different email address for the same account.
Each iCloud account only has a single iCloud email account. If you really want to set up another, you would need to add a secondary iCloud account by going to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud, then entering a different Apple ID to create the account. You can then turn on Mail to create the new account. Mail in secondary accounts, however, is fetch email, not push (which is only supported in the primary account).

EE/Orange change to bt email name

Recently acquired an iphone4. Received message or email from EE offering to include personal name in front of our email name. Now we have an unwanted and misspelled name in front of our [email protected] name. Any suggestions on how to remove it gratefully received. EE site is of no use. Many thanks, Sparkie.

Locating Phone w/ Find My iPhone When Login Name Changed on Icloud

My son had his iPhone 6 stolen and it was registered on Find My iPhone. About 10 days after it was stolen, while we were periodically monitoring iCloud to see if it ever got turned-on, my son changed his login name & password on iCloud. So now we has two devices (iPhone 6 & iPad) with the old name on them with corresponding passwords, and his iCloud account with a new name & a new password.
To add perspective on my question, even though the iPad had the old name & old password, it was located on his iCloud Find My iPhone map & iCloud would indicate when the iPad was turned on or off. Just to confirm, his iCloud account has a new login name & new password.   What I'd like to find out is since there appears to still be a linkage between his iCloud account and his iPad, would it follow that there would continue to be a linkage with his iPhone 6 (old name/old password) and his iCloud account. If the linkage continues, we would continue to monitor his iCloud in case the phone gets turned on; if not, we will of course just have to move on.   Thanks very much for any help with this.

I've learned a lot about Apple Customer Service and this forum through the unfortunate theft of my son's phone. First of all, the customer service people at Apple are poorly trained. My first 4 calls during the theft resulted in totally different answers by 4 different people. One techy from Florida was adamant that we would not receive an email if the stolen phone was connected to the internet via wifi/or 4g. He, of course, was completely wrong, and this is about as basic an issue as you can get with Find My iPhone. And I continue to wait, going on close to a week now, for what should have been a fairly routine question from a "tier 2" or Senior Adviser as they're called, for an answer to our question.
When I stumbled upon this Apple "Support" Community, I was elated. I thought, at last there's bound to be someone here who could give us some help, perhaps an Apple employee that hangs out here and tries to "be there" for their customers. Well, after waiting about 3 days and seeing that over 100 people have read my question, I am frankly surprised that not even one person has offered any help at all!   Based on my personal experiences with the Apple Customer Service Department and this Apple Support Community, I am not impressed.
I am very familiar with the way a good tech forum works and quickly learned this is not such a forum. I realized I had to go somewhere else to look which I did. I found another Apple forum (not run by Apple btw), and I posted the exact same question.   I received a reply within 20 minutes.   I suspect I will receive more throughout the day with the kind of advice and help I was hoping to get through Apple Customer Service and/or this Support Forum.
My reason for posting this comment to your support community is to let other new people realize there are other much, much better places on the internet to look for help and support with their Apple problems and issues.

IPhone changes contact name

I have an iPhone 3G running OS 3.0
I have a contact stored as a first name only, Mobile and email.
When ever i receive an email from him, The iphone automatically changes his stored name to the one written in his email name.
What is the reason please ? and how can solve it please ?
Thanks

I have the same issue with my 3G. What I found out is that - apparently - the Address Book was made for people with First AND Last names, so if you don't use one of them when you receive an e-mail from this person it will automatically changes the contact field, using that one registered with the email. The only solution for me until now was to mark those contacts that I use only the first or the last name as COMPANY. That seems to solve the problem, but I'm still hoping to find a more effective way out.

My email name is wrong

My iPad changes my email address to "Verizon". This is reflected in the To: Verizon line on emails that I receive. The emails get to me but, my email name is not displayed correctly. My home PC computer does not do this, nor does my iPhone.

I do not have a Verizon email account set up on this device. I use only Gmail for my email.
By To:, I mean the address box at the top of an email on an email addressed to me.
On my iPad, this line displays "Verizon".
The first line of any email on this iPad is: From:, the next line is: To:
Thanks for your input.

Cannot send Mail from Search shortcut "email [name of contact]" with exchange account

i have a Q10 with an exchange Account configured. Mail works fine from the hub but when i use the search feature of the q10 by typing "email [name of contact]" the compser opens but i cannot send. the account field is empty and when i press send the button gets greyed out. the email is not sent.
the problem seems to be that the default-account setting is not recognised when you use the search-shortcut-feature of the q10. when i compose a mail from the hub the account-field is filled right.
same problem has a friend of mine from another company. he also uses a different excahnge server/account.
os-version: 10.1.0.238
language: german
exchange version: 2010

Hi!
I've got the same problem. It's a quiet annoying bug.

I transferred some photos to my iphone via email and they come up in camera roll as low resolution. How do I fix this?

I transferred some photos to my iphone via email and they have very low resolution. First I sent them from iPhoto with highest resolution, then I transferred them to my desktop in highest resolution and added them to an email, opened the email and saved to my Camera roll. They all look like low resolution photos.This is the exact method I have used to transfer photos in the past with my 4S and never had a problem. What am I doing wrong? Is this a bad camera? HELP please! Thank you!

My husband has the same phone, we purchased them at the same time. I sent him the same photos in the same email that I downloaded them from and on his phone they show up with the normal higher resolution. Is it possible that there is something wrong with my iPhone or is there a setting that can be changed? I'm still learning to use it. All my other photos are of normal resolution. Does this make any sense to anyone?
Please help!

I have multiple emails associated with my i phone, but can't get my mac to associate some of the email names because it is associated with other apple id , but it's my id. how can i get around this?

- Try contacting iTunes for the password problem:
Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us
- For the other problem you can try a reset. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- The next standard thing to do is to download/install a new app but you cant 'do that.
- Instead, try restoring from backup.

Hello tcnolen1,
It sounds like you are trying to change the Apple ID logged into the iTunes & App Stores on your iPhone. Use these steps:
Changing your Apple ID account
Tap Settings > iTunes & App Stores, then tap the Apple ID signed in.
Sign out of the current Apple ID account and then sign in with another account or create a new Apple ID.
You can find the full article here:
iOS: Changing the signed-in iTunes Store Apple ID account

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
