Last name is incorrect on my Apple Support Community acct. How do I fix it?

I made a typo in my last name (I know...I know...stupid).
I don't see an obvious way to update my Apple Support Community account's last name. Can it be done?

When I try to sign in to the support community using one of my e-mail addresses and I put in nothing or what I thought was my apple support community user name I can get one of several messages
Ie.1. Please specify a user name
2.An account using this e-mail address already exists; only one account per e-mail address is allowed on Apple Support Communities
How do I find out what my Apple Support Communities user name is

Good luck with this!!!
EVEN USING what WAS my Username, this is the exact problem I am having having entered my correct ID and Password.

This entire Apple Support Community feedback is not user friendly or meant for us oldies.

Hi
Thanks for the 2 replies from different people. It's taken me 2 hours to try and find a way to respond to my 2 emailers...to NO avail. I've tried so much that I can't even remember what I've done or where I've been to repeat the action. Apple Support Community is too complicated for this old man to find/use or answer back on. I'll be leaving Apple/itunes for good, and if I loose my purchased and/or personal library of 9,000 songs so be it. Time to go android. Perhaps it's easier to navigate than this mess. This isn't user friendly at all, and doesn't answer very much because I can't answer back with parts of my dilemma I just do NOT understand. I've tried in my 2nd message to the community to be concise and exact on my issue to no real avail. It's NOT only my desire to go back to version 9...but the icloud debacle, and the genius issue as well. AAARGH!!!
But a huge thank you to my responders. I'm afraid to use that last bit of help because I have questions upon questions. That sounds like a band-aid rather than a true fix. And personally I do NOT find version 11 the same as previous versions. I really don't want it. I want what I was comfortable and familiar with for the last 5-6 years...not this mess.
Best wishes everyone and audios and a huge THANK YOU.

You don't respond to emailers because no one is emailing you. (looks like I am one of them).
Apple Support Community (ASC) is emailing you because you subscribed to your topic post.
When someone rersponds to your post in ASC, ASC will send you an email informing you there was a response to the topic you posted here.
You then go to that post and review it and respond if you wish.
To turn off emails from ASC, see this -> https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3661
I'll be leaving Apple/itunes for good,
Really? Just because you got an email?
This isn't user friendly at all, and doesn't answer very much because I can't answer back with parts of my dilemma I just do NOT understand.
You seem to be doing fine here -> https://discussions.apple.com/message/24556207#24556207
then you abandoned your first topic and posted again here -> https://discussions.apple.com/message/24557775#24557775

TS1398 Unable to connect to my home Wi-Fi with my iPad. I have tried just about everything I could find in the Apple Support Community. Perhaps this is a new known problem??

I have tried all the recommend solutions I could find in the Apple Support Community. I noticed a couple of weeks ago the iPad was acting funny about connecting to the internet via the Wi-Fi. The past two days, it wasn't able to connect to the wireless router at all. It recognizes that the wireless router network exists, it just can't join. I tried the re-boot method. I have re-set the network setting on the iPad back to factory. I even thought my old wireless router may have issues and bought a new one yesterday, and the iPad actually worked for about 24 hours and now I am back to the iPad not being able to connect to the wireless router. I have re-entered the wireless router from scratch thinking that there may have been a bug in the setup. I have removed the security settings from the wireless router to see if that may have prevented the iPad from connecting but got the same message "Unable to Join". I have cleared the cookies and data, as that was also a recommended fix, but that didn't work. I also connected the iPad to the computer so that I could check for the latest update. iPad has the latest version, so that solution didn't work. Does anyone out there got any other ideas, or are you experiencing the same problem? Is there some known issue that I am not aware of???

Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
iPad: Issues connecting to Wi-Fi networks http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3304
iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

Does anyone know how to delete an Apple Support Community account/profile?

Hey Guys,
Thanks for taking the time to take a look at this post!
I need to delete my apple support community account because I have responded to some questions and asked a few myself in the past and now even though I have fully removed myself from those posts and changed my e-mail preferences so that those preferences are set to not receiving any more emails, I am still receiving emails!!!!
So i just want to delete my account now..
Many thanks in advance!!

There is no way for you to delete the account. I suppose in dire circumstances a host could do it but it doesn't happen often.
If the only reason you want to delete the account is because of the email you are getting from here, it can be stopped. SeeHighly annoyed here. for the way to stop them.

How do I stop apple support community emails?

A month ago I started a discussion about iCal and selected email preferences that were to liberal - I began receiving all email posts in reference to iCal. I reset all of the email notification preferences to "no" in my Apple Support Community profile a few weeks ago, and created a rule in Mail that routed all support community email to trash. However, when I use my web-based email, I see that I am still receiving over 20 emails a day from Apple Support Communities. How do I stop these emails?

Hi nykayak,
You can remove email subscriptions by following the instructions that J D and Barry provided.
I did take a look at your account though and I was able to remove the subscriptions.

Where is my apple support community profile

I have joined and can login via Safari to the Apple Support Community and when I first signed in from my Mac which runs Yosemite 10.10.1 I was asked to fill in some details to my profile. However now I wish to update it and I cannot seem to find it.

Thanks a lot - it worked, funny I tried it a little while ago and nothing happened, maybe my trackpad not as sensitive as I thought.
However Thanks again

How do I change my Apple Support Community email

Thank you again for your time, But I run an applet with that if it does not have Java how it is possible to run?
although I will test those links tomorrow, I wish JWS works after that.
I have one more question:
I installed Java 7 on OS x 10.7.3 and 10.7.5 at first, then I tried to run my JWS applications (which use JOGL1 ) but they showed only blank white pages then I did the steps of the link:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5559?viewlocale=sv_SE
after that they warned that there is no JRE , I installed Java7 again and they work, But I did not get the reason?why it did not work at first?!?!?

I want to change my Apple Support Community nickname

Hello! I want to change my Apple Support Community nickname. How can I do this? Thank you!

It has only been allowed in absolutely extreme security related circumstances; otherwise, the hosts would be deluged with thousands of requests of users who suffered from a one-time lack of good judgment.

While adding new fonts, somehow dumped necessary fonts from OS 10.6 library. now have only blank menus, dialog boxes, even apple support site. How to fix?

Imac Snow Leopard .....While adding new fonts, somehow dumped necessary fonts from OS 10.6 library. now have only blank menus, dialog boxes, even apple support site. How to fix?

Thanks again baltwo,
Thank you all very much,
Strangely enough even though I had gotten the " Install failed....Mac OS X could not be installed on your computer....The install could not copy the necessary support files" I had left it on the screen and left the room for awhile. I walked back into my computer room a few minutes ago and the window on the screen stated that the SL OS 10.6.4 had successfully installed. I am now very carefully checking things out to make sure the fonts are where they should be. With the exception of some updating it appears all may be well.
PS. Below is a note I was writing to Kurt (also assisting me) to try and detail what had happened. Added it in case it could be of any value to you
Kurt,
Thank you for response. following is series of events to my best recollection.
I would typically not have been this stupid/ignorant but was doing this in a hurry with someone asking me questions...wasn't paying attn. to what I was doing
• downloaded new fonts
• opened downloaded fonts, clicked font icons to open and install them.
• typed "fonts" in spotlight (with the intention of moving new fonts into font folder)The Spotlight results window revealed 5 or 6 font folders. I ignorantly started to try a clean up by installing all fonts into a single folder (not thinking about system fonts)
Sometimes when you are moving a folder the window you moved it from will jump around..well this occurred and I mistakenly released the folder on the desk top. This caused a copy to be made. After some investigation I realized it was a copy of the required system fonts that were still located in the original "spotlight results" window.
• I attempted to delete the copy..when I did an administrator password box appeared I entered the password and the result was both system font folders were deleted (the original & the desk top copy I erroneously made)
• Now windows open but are blank with sometimes faded mini sized icons. If I click one of the mini icons i get a new blank window. I am unable to give any instruction, have total blank menus, dialog boxes, etc.
I can open the some of the items that have icons in the apple dock at bottom of page in the

About this New Apple Support Community???

We Need to put this Apple Support Community Message Board back to the Classic way, this 1 is horrible i'm not being mean just stating my opinion thats all, it's up to you at Apple what to do though it's your choice it's only an opinion so i hope i did not say anything wrong???

rcc...... et al
rcc, you are a Firefox user right? I have found faster & fastest way to search ASC - Google.
use this format exactly as you see it spaces and NOT spaces without the quotes unless you want the phrase::
" your search terms site:discussions.apple.com "
This will confine the results to ASC. Then you can use the refinements Google provides on the left to restrict by time - 1 hour, 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 1 year - then sort by relevance or date.
Lightning fast. Will pick up stuff posted <30 minutes old.
Additionally, try FF add-on "FastestFox" - many search enhancements especially for Google & Wikipedia
