Mail sent from my iPad shows as being from 'Yahoo' rather than my name?

I have a yahoo account synced with my iPad. When i compose and send an email the receiver sees an email from 'Yahoo' and not my name? Why is this and how do i or can I change this so that it appears as from me?

I just played around with my Yahoo account. The from name that appeared in an email sent to a different account matched what was in the "Name" block in Yahoo! Account Information in Settings>Mail....>Yahoo!

  • On OSX 10.6.8 Mac Mail sent items do not show the Bcc field. Adjusting settings in mail/prefs/viewing/custom/bcc has no affect on Mail, ie Bcc still does not appear on sent items. Anyone got a fix?

    On OSX 10.6.8 Mac Mail sent items do not show the Bcc field. Adjusting settings in mail/prefs/viewing/custom/bcc has no affect on Mail, ie Bcc still does not appear on sent items. Yet another example of Mac caring not a jot about the performance of versions of OS and software running on on older hardware. Anyone got a fix by any chance? Oh and fyi I need to see the Bcc in sent items to confirm sent email is attaching to Salesforece - when I see the Bcc I know I can delete it as a copy will be in SForce. Big thanks W.

  • I cannot access all of the gmail messages from my Ipad that I can from my laptop.  What gives?

    I cannot access all of my gmail messages from my Ipad that I can from my laptop.  I have a folder with 27 messages in it, but when I access that folder on my Ipad, only one message shows.

  • I can't send email from my iPad. I am from Australia but on holidays in Greece. Does anyone know what is the smtp outserver for Greece that I should use?

    I can't send email from my iPad. I am from Australia but on holidays in Greece. Does anyone know what is the smtp outserver for Greece that I should use?

    As you haven't told us who your email provider is, no.
    There isn't an SMTP server for Greece - it is either provided by your email provider, or the Internet provider you are connected through.

  • If i import photos from my ipad to iphoto for mac, will deleting them from my ipad also remove them from my mac?

    If i import photos from my ipad to iphoto for mac, will deleting them from my ipad also remove them from my mac?

    No. They will remain on the Mac. That's one of the reasons why it's a good idea to import your treasured photos. If something happens to the iPad, you still have your photos.

  • If i delete photos from the iPad, do they erase from the iPhoto albums in my computer too?

    If I delete photos from the iPad, do they erase from the iPhoto albums in my computer too?

    No. The photos will remain in iPhoto on your computer. You are just deleting them from the iPad.

  • I can print from my iPad 3 but not from my new iPad mini which has a lower spec. What should I do?

    Question. Why can I print from my iPad 3 but not from my new iPad mini which has a lower spec?

    The "lower specs" have nothing to do at all with why you cannot print. Are you connected to the same Wi-Fi network that the printer & the iPad 3 is on?

  • If I have home sharing can I delete music from my IPad without deleting it from my other devices such as IPhone and IPod?

    If I have Home Sharing enabled, can I delete music from my IPad without deleting it from my IPhone and IPod?

    Home sharing has no effect on deleting music from your iPad. If you delete music on your iPad it will have no effect on your other iDevices.
    You cannot add or delete music with home sharing anyway. You can only share what is on one library on another device.

  • Is there any Vga adaptor for the Ipad 2 that is VIDEO IN rather than OUT?

    Is there any Vga adaptor for the Ipad 2 that is VIDEO IN rather than VIDEO OUT? is for a student with visual impairment who needs to view the classroom digital board content from a very short distance, like the distance to an Ipad for example, so the Ipad would be ideal as an interactive monitor with typography and content easy to amplify.
    At the moment, this student has a traditional flat screen monitor taking over the table next to him, so no other child can seat in it, and he has no opportunity to befriend and sporadically joke with anybody else. So much for "inclusion".
    Please do let me know: [email protected]

    Speaking as a teacher ... Why can't he have a student on the other side of him?

  • HT1218 My airport utility no longer works, but I have just changed my router.  Is there something I need to do ?  The orange light shows up on my airport, rather than the green one it should have.  Please help !!!

    My airport utility no longer works, but I have just changed my router.  Is there something I need to do ?  The orange light shows up on my airport, rather than the green one it should have.  Please help !!!

    **** little info about your equipment.
    If you just replaced the router with an Airport Extreme or Express:
    disconnect the modem from power, disconnect the new router from power, connect the modem to power and wait till it os fully started up, then connect the new router to power. After a while the amber light will turn to flashing, then after a while it will turn to green. Then with AirportUtility (in Aplications/Utilities) it should be configured with the password.

  • How can you get a compilation album to show up as one album rather than be split up but song and artist?

    how can you get a compilation album to show up as one album rather than be split up by song and artist? I've got loads of albums on iTunes that are compliations and they are all mixed up by track/ artist. Even when you click 'show album' it still just shows the album title and then the artist in alphabetical order - so the album is replicated several times
    Can anyone tell me how to amalgamate compliation albums please?

  • Photos sent from iPad and iPhone are now embedded rather than attached.

    Previously when I sent a photo or a screenshot from my iPhone or iPad they appeared in my e-mail as attached, but all of a sudden images are embedded in the e-mail, which makes downloading them to the computer a rather tiresome task. Does anyone know if it is possible to still attach images rather than having them embedded? I suspect it has been introduced with the latest iOS 7 update.

    Have tried this but it is still not pulling in older emails. I also have an iPhone synced. On my apple computer at home, all the emails come through. Why have apple removed the option in settings to determine how many emails you can pull through ?  best wishes, sam

  • Texting from my iPad shows my wife as the sender. Need to change identity somehow. May be problem with iCloud recognition.

    I've been sending texts via iMessage from my new iPad. It is set up to send from my mobile phone number as the sender. When I send a message (even to myself) it shows my wife as the sender. When sent to myself it shows my picture as the recipient. I've checked under the messages setting and it only shows my data and phone number. However under the setting menu under contact heading the " my info" has my wife's name ( on all our devices including both iPhones, iPad, iMac, etc). Even when I log into iCloud it comes up my name but shows her picture. That is why I'm wondering if the problem is with our iCloud account.  I've checked into it and only my data is included on it. W do share all our contacts via iCloud for all our devices.  I cannot figure out what or how to change it so it shows me as the sender.
    Any ideas?

    Firstly, you need to change your details with Apple,  Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account. You may have already done this.
    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.
