    I keep getting duplicate e mails

    junk / spam - use your mail program's filters
    keep one for private/personal and another for more business type
    you send an email to someone who does have a problem or is auto-responding that in the past there were rogue email virus that would "collect' all the addresses in someone's address book.
    now you have Facebook Twitter and others asking (and in some cases not even asking!) to "scan' (and store) your contacts - and then match your Fb 'friends and family' against.... theirs, and so on down the line. A diagram of social relationships and interactions. it gets to "6-degrees of Kevin Bacon" around the world.
    Just send and add to junk filter. If it isn't YOU or from your contacts, put it in junk folder and go through.
    Email is one place where there might be some value in 3rd party utility. Sometimes your ISP or email host will provide a way to pre-filter before it downloads. If junk, don't download, do not allow html, do not download images - they can come off web servers and tell that the email reached a real person and the IP address.

  • I keep getting "undelivered mail returned to sender" that comes with an attachment. I have not opened the attachment but the email returned is usually from people that i have not emailed in a long time.

    I keep getting "undelivered mail returned to sender" that comes with an attachment. i do not open the attachment but i get email returned from people that i have not emailed in years. I also have current people that tell me they receive email from me and there is nothing on the email and it is a repetative thing for them and for me. I have scanned my computer and it keeps telling me there are no viruses but i keep getting these emails. can anyone help me please!

    Someone is probably sending spam with your address forged on the To: line.  Could be one of your old contacts with a Windows machine has a virus that's doing it.  It's also possible your e-mail account has been hacked, though I'd think such a hacker would be a bit more purposeful.

    Toggle iMessage Off then On
    Turning iMessage off then on again worked for my particular issue. You can do this by following these steps:
    From the Home screen, open “Settings“.
    Select “Messages“
    Slide “iMessages” to off for about 3 minutes, then turn it back on.
    Your iPhone will be re-registered and may clear up the duplicate text message notification problem.
    Repeat Alerts Setting
    There is a setting that repeats notifications which could cause this issue. Check it with these steps:
    From the Home screen, open “Settings“.
    Select “Notification Center“.
    Choose “Messages“.
    Ensure that the “Repeat Alerts” setting is set to “Once“.
    Send & Receive Setting
    Another setting that involves sending notifications to multiple numbers could be the issue as well. Check the following:
    From the Home screen, open “Settings“.
    Select “Messages“.
    Choose “Send & Receive“.
    Ensure that only your phone number is listed in the “You can be reached by iMessage at” area. If you have an email address or anything else listed, it could cause duplicate text messages.

  • Keep getting a mail pop up "enter password for account "SBC." ATT says I need to update my Mac mail server program. Anyone know how I can do this?

    I keep getting an annoying pop up for mail "Enter password for account "SBC."  I enter my password but it still pops up. But I can still get my mail when I click on "Get mail."  I called ATT and they said they are aware of the problem with Mac users and that I have to update my Mac Mail server program. Anyone know how I can do this? They want to charge me.

    RE: "Mail, Contacts and Calendars preferences can't connect to the Yahoo account "bellsouth.net".
    I recently changed my ATT U-Verse password…and Mail quit working… it wouldn't send or receive, Safari worked fine.  I tried to send an email and a warning message popped up, "Mail, Contacts and Calendars preferences can't connect to the Yahoo account "bellsouth.net". In smaller type the next sentence read, "Enter the password for user [email protected]". The Password box was highlighted in blue so I just typed in my new password and my email message was immediately sent…but… I still couldn't receive messages AND the above "can't connect" warning message kept popping up on the screen at random.
    Here's the Fix that worked for me. (The problem is that the new password was changed/updated on the keychains "smpt.att.yahoo.com" name-but- the name "pop.att.yahoo.com" didn't update to my new password).
    Go to your Utility windows and select Keychain Access. Under Category select Passwords. Now check your password for your current (newest dated) name, "smpt.att.yahoo.com". Now check the password under, "pop.att.yahoo.com". Mine wasn't the same as my newest password found in my
    "smpt.att.yahoo.com" window so I deleted my old password in the "pop.att.yahoo.com" window and typed in my new password, then selected "Save Changes". MY MAIL NOW WORKED…and no more warning messages cropped up. Problem was fixed.

  • Why do I keep getting duplicate messages from IMAP

    I have several different gmail accounts, but on one account I get some messages twice, others only once.
    I have contacted the primary sender, to make sure they only have one account for me.
    Do I have something set to pull things down more than once? Original & duplicate always come in together.

    My first inclination is to answer your question --- yes - something is going wrong! I'm sure more specific information will be needed to help you.
    Are you getting a specific message? An error code number? Can you describe exactly what you are doing when you get the message?

  • HT203433 why do i keep getting duplicates in my itunes library?

    I notice I songs in my iTunes library keep getting duplicated. A lot of them seem to be purchases I've made with my iTunes account. I have iTunes Match enabled, Cloud storage and have an iPhone 4S. Is it possible it's duplicating these items for some reason from my phone or the cloud?

    Because someone's trying to mislead you into giving them your iTunes Store login information. Forward all such emails to [email protected] and then delete them.
    If there's an actual problem with your iTunes Store account, you'll be told at the time you try to purchase or download something.

  • I keep getting duplicate photos when downloading from my card reader.

    In my PSE11 Camera and Card Reader preferences I have checked "Copy new files only".  Yet whenever I download a camera card that still contains photos that were previously downloaded, I end up with duplicate photos in PSE11. 
    I prefer to leave my photos on the camera card as a "backup" in case of a hard drive crash or other loss of data on the computer.  Once the card is full I archive it.
    Why do I get duplicates even though this setting makes it clear that I should not?  It is very annoying having to look through my photo collection and manually delete dozens or hundreds of duplicate photos.
    Thank you.
    Jon

    First, try contacting the developer of the app here >  http://support.aspyr.com/home
    If you do not get a reply within three to five business days, report the issue to Apple here > Apple - Support - Mac App Store - Contact Support
    Apple's policy states, "all sales are final" > TUNES STORE - MAC APP STORE -TERMS AND CONDITIONS but if you explain the error and you haven't received areply from the developer, it can't hurt to request a refund.
    You're sure there's enough free space on the startup disk?

  • I do not know how to remove my g-mail account information from Thunderbird so I do not keep getting e-mails from my g-mail account showing up in Thunderbird.

    I need help knowing which pulldown, and which choice to select, in order to remove the account info for my g-mail account which keeps forwarding all my g-mail e-mails to Thunderbird even after I have deleted all the unwanted e-mails in g-mail.

    Gmail is not your main mail account? If you have mail accounts you no longer want Thunderbird to check, you can delete them in the Account Settings dialog (there's a button at the bottom left). Either:
    * 3-bar menu button > Options > Account Settings
    * tap the Alt key > Tools menu > Account Settings
    If Gmail is set up as an IMAP account (this is indicated on the Server Settings section) then all of the folders for the account should be removed from Thunderbird. They should, however, remain on the server. If in doubt, someone probably could describe how best to make a backup.
    Does that make sense?

  • I keep getting duplicate emails.

    This appears to be a common problem and the suggested solution is to delete some files in Thunderbird and if this does not solve the problem then to set Thunderbird to delete the emails from the pop account automatically.
    I want to keep the files in the POP account and manually delete them from time to time.
    I suspect that this problem is about a year or two old.
    Help please!

    Thanks for the quick reply.
    Yes, I have deleted this.
    I have been thinking about the problem overnight and have re-checked my server settings.
    I had not ticked the "leave messages on server" box although the "until I delete them" box was ticked.
    I have now ticked this box and will delete the Thunderbird files and see what happens.

  • HT2513 I keep getting duplicate Birthday entries in Ical with only one date/entry in the Contacts App.  Please help?

    I need help deleting one of the duplicate birthdays in Ical on my Macbook Pro?
    Sam

    What I found was that you have to go all or nothing. I don't have any personal iDevices (just an iPad through work) so the simple solution was to turn off Contact syncing for iCloud. I'm guessing you'll need to remove all your local contacts or, the more tedious solution, remove the birthdays from all the local contacts. As you surmised, iCal seems to use the whole address book, and can't be just a subset of contacts.
