Mail adds wrong name to right email address
I type in a mail address and the wrong persons name gets associated with it. I can't fix it. the mail goes to the right person but person B's name gets associated with it. It doesn't work to uncheck auto fill addresses in the mail preferences either. How do u reset and control these actions?
thx
Mail ver 3.3
David,
I too have had this problem. I think the problem occurs when an address book from one computer syncs with one from another. Things get jumbled up in the process. Wrong names get associated with email address's. Go into your address book & find the email address & I bet you will see the wrong name attached. Edit the entry & all should be well.

Problems with Mountain Lion. Have never had these problems previously. Have been a mac user since 1990.
iTunes no longer sends music to my airport express. NO FIX EXISTS !
Now iCal every time I want to send an email alert puts up this message: You must add your own card and email address in Contacts to be able to use mail alerts.
COME ON I HAVE DONE THIS OVER AND OVER TO NO RESULT.
MACINTOSH WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
UNHAPPY !Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work.
Isolating an issue by using another user account
If the problem is still there, try booting into the Safe Mode. Shut down the computer and then power it back up. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal.

I need to change my icloud account the account name is a email address I can no longer access
I need to change my icloud account name the account name is an email address that I can no longer access.
When I select the "red" Delete Account button it ask for my passcode for that account and I don't recall it.
I also cannot reset the password because I have no Idea what email it will go to. I have reset my apple ID and passcode it has the old
email now how do I change it for icloud????? Please assist very important...Welcome to the Apple Community.
Firstly, you need to change your details with Apple, Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too. -
I want to send out an email to one of the groups in my address book, but when I add the group to my email only the first email address for each contact is added. How would I make it so Mac always adds all of a contacts email addresses to the email.
I look at it like this, it was a solution to my problem. There is obviously something wrong with the new version. When everyone starts complaining, and some genius figures out the fix, then I will worry about the upgrade. Until then, I am fine with running 4.0. I have to disagree with you though. 6.0 is a downgrade for sure. There is a lot to be desired compared to this version. Who wants price gong, and screwed up emails. Not me. The problem is out there, and now someone needs to work on the bug fixes on this BETA version.

Hello,
I followed the following step by step guide for SAML-based claims authentication with ADFS:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh305235.aspx
The authentication works well; however, Sharepoint shows the users’ email everywhere including at the top right suite-bar. I rather to see users’ display name instead of email. Is there any way to have SharePoint shows user’s display name instead of email
address when the primary SAML claim is email address?
Thank you,You need to be able to import the identity store into the UPA. See http://sharepointobservations.wordpress.com/2013/08/06/sharepoint-2013-configure-user-profile-service-for-adfs-provider/ for
a good step-by-step on how this is configured.

Handle name is my email address when I post?
I've created 2 accounts and with both accounts it appears my handle name is my name but when I edit the profile it shows my email address as my handle?
I've never posted or replied before and noticed today when I tried that when I do a preview my email address shows as the handle even when I have my profile set to not show my name or my email address?
I've read the FAQ's and help but don't see what I'm doing wrong.I´ve got the same problem and was wondering, why no one has it too.
I don´t want my username to be my email adress. My profil shows my name as the handle, so it´s curios that the email adress appears when previewing the post.
But it´s also curios that in the Forum Settings my email adress is my handle. I have not expected differences between those.
So I am interested what appears when posting. -

Can anyone help me with setting up my Mac Air, to allow me to have an email template open up in Outlook instead of Mail when I click on an email address on a website?
All the limits you mention 100 e-mails at a time and 500 in a four hour time frame are limitations imposed by your mail provider, not Thunderbird. Thunderbird places no restrictions on the maximum number of recipients.
Have you tried turning your computer off for a few minutes? -
In Mail, is it possible to extract email addresses of senders from just one account inbox?
Click on the arrow next to the number of emails in the conversation. That'll show you each separate email. You can create a new mailbox (call it what you want) and drag that email out of the conversation into that mailbox.

I had a name for my user name not an email address and now I cannot get access to my itunes account
I had a simple user name through the itunes store. It was just a name not an email address, now when I sign in it sends me to an old itunes account which does not recognize purchases that I have made over the last 5 years.
Any clue as to how I can access my old account again? I tried asking the system to send me a password with my username (which is not an email address) and have yet to see an email that was on flie with that address.
Any help would be appreciated
Thank you.Have you tried calling?

Change display name of workflow email address in sharepoint 2010
Hi
How I can change display name of workflow email address in sharepoint 2010. I want to configure display name (from address)of email
for each site collection separately.for example I want to change "software unit"
in below pic to another name for my software unit site collection.
How I can do this?
Thanx.Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to change display name of workflow email address in sharepoint 2010.
In my environment, if I assign a task to a user, the email is as below:
The “test” is the site name, the [email protected] is the “From” user.
Do you want to change the “From” field in the workflow?
If so, you can have a look at the "Send email extended" custom SPD workflow activity (http://www.codeplex.com/SPDActivities
) which allow you to specify the sender.
Here are some similar threads for your reference:

I want to change the email address to which all the reset security information (emails) go to. But I cannot see that email address in the list when I click on the 'Name, ID and Email Addresses' section.
How can I change it when I cannot view it on my account. I am not even sure how this got setup.If you mean your rescue email address, it's in the Passwords and Security section, after you answer the two security questions.

.mac mail - I still use my .mac email address to access itunes, icloud, etc. Every once in a while, apple sends me confirmation, reservation, etc. emails to the .mac address. Can someone tell me how to access that email account?
Hi pjerl,
Depending on when you originally set up your Apple ID, you may have @mac.com, @me.com, and @icloud.com email addresses associated with your account, but all mail sent to those addresses should still come in to the same iCloud account (you can test this to make sure by sending yourself emails at those addresses). You may find the following articles helpful:
iCloud: About your @icloud.com, @me.com, and @mac.com email addresses
iCloud: Using your @icloud.com email address
