Reply Defaults to Account Name Not Alias

When I reply to a message, my email defaults to my account name rather than the alias the origanal message was sent to. Is there a setting I can use to fix this? Does this happen to everyone? Thanks. - Fabini
P.S. If this has been addressed in another thread, please point me to it. Thanks again. -F

About the From address in your messages
When you compose a message, Mail determines the address to use in the From field based on the “Send new messages from” option in the Composing pane of Mail preferences.
When you reply to a message, Mail determines the address to use in the From field in this order:
The To and Cc fields of the original message are compared to email addresses you have set up in Mail preferences, and the first matching address is used.
Mail uses the email address for the first account listed in the Accounts pane of Mail preferences.

Data being Displayed while the Account Name not getting Displayed in FR

Hi,
We are facing a strange issue when is user is trying to run a Hyperion Financial report. The data and Entity Name is being displayed whereas the Account name is not being displayed for a particular entity. The user has access to the Entity and accounts. Any Clues ??
Thanks,
Addy

The first thing that pops to my mind is does the format of the cell have Replace checkbox checked with a blank description. thus any results coming back will display as blank.
Also the customized header is check and it is showing blank.
A quick test if you have Smart View is can the user access the same data? if yes then the report has a filter of some sort, if the user cannot access the data in smart view, there is a security problem perhaps with the data

You can print offset account name using
system variable no.415 using subsidary account option and
then select template
'General Ledger by posting date(system)'.
I checked it offset account name appears in print preview.

How to find out Skype account name

Preface: Sorry, I think this is really simple thing but I tend to be verbose when I'm trying to describe the issue. How would I find out what is my Skype account name? Or more precisely the login name? (I mean of course my own name is on the accout, but I want the "account" name, not the name on the accout, heh) I have an old hotmail account, which has become live/messanger/microsoft account and now after Messanger was removed, Skype account as well. I can login into any of these by logging from the Live/Microsoft account, but what is my Skype account if I want to login using that? On Skype program and website, both list my hotmail address as well as "live:hotmailaddess" part before @ character. But I can't login to Skype using the address, "live:address" or just "address". I can't find anything else on the pages. I tried logging out from the website and then using the recovery option "I want to find out my Skype account" (the website is in Finnish so my translation might not be accurate to what it actually is in English). I typed in the hotmail adress many times since the it asked it for many times a row and continued the steps, finally I typed in the address and capcha , then again it asked the address. I think I made a mistake there, because I think it actually wanted on the last time the alternative address. The website was not too clear about it specially since it wants the address so many times. It displays only a small portion of it and since my alternative address is practically identical to the main address, just an underscore is changed to hyphen, well...So finally it displayed "IF the account address is xxxx for whatever a code has been sent to it". Yeah well since I guess typed in the wrong address, I've received nothing on either. This whole ordeal started today few hours ago when I tried to login to the **bleep** thing. I updated the Skype program, since an upgrade have been around for some time now, and since it always resets the autologin information, I had to manually type them in, and it kept asking for alternative verification address or phone number. There was no way to bypass that. Just to make it clear, it wanted me to give such info, not use the alternative thing since so far I've never given any alternative ways to login or reset account.
Somehow at first I was able to finally get in without giving any alternative info, I kept trying to login over and over, occasionally I tried to login using the "Skype account", but since I don't know the account I could only login using the Live/Microsoft account. Then I logged off from the program, and after that I tried to login back, it wanted to manually login again, and it kept asking from the alt details and I couldn't anyhow bypass that. I also tried logging into Hotmail/Outlook.com from the website as well as Skype(from website), both ways wanted the info but to both I finally somehow managed to get in. I mean the websites, logging inside the program failed all the time. Anyway finally I remembered I had made the second account so I figured I give it as alt address. I got that thing in OK, the second address just has hotmail.com, so I could easily login there by another browser and that didn't want any extra verifications. But before this last attempt, I had used the same "I want to know my Skype ID" feature from the program. To clarify, before linking the second address to my main address. But since I was having so much trouble with getting into Skype(and as well as it's Messanger part) I think I didn't check them out. Plus I had trouble getting into the mail as well, although I finally got in. Soooo...the two mails received in the primary address, "Your Skype Name token" messages which have a link and verification number, they won't work anymore. I try either, and neither works. My guess is they got invalidated by the third request or by either finally adding the alternative address. AND, since the third time I mistook it asking the same **bleep** address for the third or fourth time in the last request and gave the main address not the alt address it probably didn't send the code anywhere. And now I tried again the thing but it refuses to go any further than the first step, because it says I've used it too often in the last 24 hours. So, surely the account name should read someplace?I repeat, I can perfectly login into Skype in web and the program, I know the password and hotmail addresses and all that, but the two types of accounts it lists after logging in, neither work for login. Or does it mean I don't actually have a Skype account, just the Live/Microsoft account which I can only use to login to Skype using that other option? I'm starting to think this is the case.

I am definetly starting to think I don't actually have a skype name. Now I tried again since the 24 hour restriction went off. First from Skype webpage ->sign in -> forgotten your skype name? ->there I enter my hotmail address ->send mail ->then it moves off from Skype and into account.live.com, where it's no longer asking anything Skype related: Why are you having trouble signing in?I forgot my passwordI know my password, but can't sign inI think someone else is using my Microsoft account
So I obviously choose the second option last time since it's the closest available option for my problem, but then it gives me options: Get back into your accountWe can help you reset your password and security info. First, enter your Microsoft account and the characters shown. So again it asked for my address and captcha, and after that I could choose to "verify my identity" by choosing the alt email, but since that is slight garbled and cannot be differented from the primary address, and I was already so pissed off from typing the same address over and over, so at that point I mistakenly wrote the main address again where it wanted to verify it by asking the whole alternative address and thus it never sent the account reset email for the Microsoft/Live account. But since I originally had no problems with that Microsoft account, all I wanted was the "Skype Name", and since the only way to try to find it jumps into the restore Microsoft account thing, I'm assuming I don't have one which I could use to login to Skype, so all I can use is the Microsoft/Live account.

Msg show email account name

I haven't update the ios7.1.1, but recently I received my friend imessage, it show her email account name, not contact name at my contact, can someone can tell me why?

Hey heidiyuen,
Thanks for the question. It sounds like your friend has configured her settings to start new conversations from her Apple ID email address, rather than her phone number. For more information, see the following:
iOS: Using Messages
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3529
You can change the address that new iMessage conversations are started with in Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > Start new conversations from. Note that this setting applies only to new conversations. If you would like to change the address from which messages are sent, first change this setting, and then delete the existing conversation and start a new one.
Thanks,
Matt M.

Whitespace in User Account Name causes issues with various functions

I've run into a few issues with users who have whitespace in their account names (for example, a user account name that was: "Joe Smith"). Generally, I think this is a result of windows interpreting the last name as a parameter when it tries to
run a certain function. One place where this occurs and is easily replicated is in the "Troubleshoot Program Compatibility Wizard" which gives an error about permissions, another place this occurs is in the dx9 web installer which gives an error
message concerning advpack.dll
In both of these cases I've been able to 'fix' the issue by relocating the TEMP and TMP environment variables to a folder like C:\TEMP, however I still have some issues with other installers and programs such as the 3rd party Cordova build program and the
android sdk which both get stumped by spaces in the user account name. From my understanding there is no way to change a user account name (not just the name which displays but the name which Windows reads) without deleting the account and copying often several
gigabytes of files and settings over to a completely new account. Is this correct? Is there a way to remove the whitespace from an account name without these hackish workarounds? Is there anyway to report this as a bug to Microsoft in the hopes that they either
remove support for usernames with whitespaces or come up with some way to make their internal features like the Compatibility Wizard operate correctly in these (fairly common) install environments? It's an incredibly pesky bug to identify....

1. Spaces are allowed but not recommended. I would avoid using space(s) in account names.
2. I do not understand what you have prevented from changing user name.
3. For problems with 3rd pty programs ask support/forum of respective software vendors.
4. If you feel like addressing Microsoft, use

Using /usr/bin/security for password access confused by repeat account name

One should be able to lookup a password from the CLI with
`security find-generic-password -a test -g`
This formulation seems to assume that you use 'test' as a unique account name.
If you use a common login name across multiple generic password items,
then this formulation returns the first match, not an array or
plist of /all the matches/.
That is:
`security find-generic-password -a test`
returns the first entry of 'test' as an account name, not an indexed plist, as I would expect.
One must, it seems have to add a comment field per entry to be able to select
the appropriate generic password
`security find-generic-password -j server1 -g`
I've read through the man page a few times, but haven't been able to find a
way to iterate / specify / select based on account name that's shared across
entries.
Anyone else tried this out?

Hi
I believe you can set an open firmware password to prevent someone booting from the OS X disc:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106482
At the end of the day though, if someone has physical access to your computer and in particular your hard drive, they could probably access your information anyway by simply removing the hard drive and mounting it in another computer.

How can I change my email account name to my alias?

The Verizon email address all my friends, family, and business associates have used for more than 8 years (Jxx Sxxxx) turns out to be an alias. My primary account name seems to be JSxxxx. I recently changed to high speed enhanced and these things happened:
Outlook, where I receive my email, continues to receive all mail addressed to Jxx Sxxxx, just as it always has. If I compose a new email or hit the reply button, my outgoing emails SHOULD show up in the recipient's mailbox as Jxx Sxxxxx. Instead, they appear with the sender name Mxx Sxxxx (the name of my husband, the account owner). I need my own name back in order to get my emails read by business associates and others who don't know who Mxx Sxxxx is.
In addition, only email addressed to JSxxxx comes to my regular Verizon account (accessed at webmail.verizon.net). NO email addressed to Jxx Sxxxx comes to that account, which means that if I am away from my computer I cannot access my email at all.
How can I change my so-called account name to my alias without losing all the emails in my Outlook account? That is, how can I get rid of my primary account name, and substitute my alias?

Thunderbird V3 Menu location: Edit | Account Settings | account name | Server Settings not listed in edit menu?

Thunderbird v 3 help info is different than what actually is shown in the edit option list. Menu location: Edit | Account Settings | <account name> | Server Settings
Looking for ISP setting that instructs ISP(rr) to keep emails on serer until erased by user. This setting was in earlier versions of Thunderbird. This settings is used to download email to other user computers. When user's computer breaks down user has to reload email onto new setup.
Scenario is to go to Thunderbird V 3 Edit --> Account Settings and discover this option no longer exists. See earlier version where you can go to Account Settings and select email to be left on server for optional number of days or until erased by user.
Thanks for help,
Bob

This is my problem too. I don't usually need to edit settings but yahoo or gmail have had temporary problems with their smtp servers, when they do I can simply go to account settings and change from one to the other. Now when I open the account settings window and left or right click on ANY account or setting for an account in the left tree I get the error window with this message:
"The Local Directory path "C:\Users\Len\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\dlcdrtl6.default\Mail\Local Folders" is not suitable for message storage. Please choose another directory."
Clicking OK in the window brings up another message window with the same message as above:
"An account with this name already exists. Please enter a different account name."
I cannot exit the account settings box by clicking OK. I need to click cancel. This effectively makes it impossible to change any account settings. This worked a few months ago as I switched smtp servers when gmail had problems, now I'm screwed if I need to.
This is a problem with one of the new versions it should be marked critical as account settings need be configurable and I don't see any workaround like there is for pasting links.

I am using my iMac using iChat to talk to a newer iMac that doesn't have iChat. We had this working using Messages and Facetime (on the new machine) talking to my existing iChat account. One day last week, when Facetime rang, my kids answered on the iPad. Dang! Now it's all fouled up! The new iMac won't see my AIM account name and shows that I'm offline, because the iPad is off. We were able to call using "most recent call" in Facetime, but now I can't go and control that new iMac remotely to help with some email concerns the user is having. I'm trying to not personalize this too much, but it's grandkids talking to Grandma and Mom and Dad trying to solve new machine hiccups. Normally, I could just go in via iChat and control the other machine and troubleshoot, but I can't do it with Facetime only. My buddy list doesn't see the other computer even though we are connected on Facetime right now. My name is not highlighted for the other computer. What could have gone so wrong?
Any help would be appreciated.

Do not delete the old account yet. sign up for an iCloud account if you haven't.
I understand .mac mail will still come through. Do not delete the old account yet.
You cannot use .mac or MobileMe as type of Account, you have to choose IMAP when setting up, otherwise Mail is hard coded to change imap.mail.me.com to mail.me.com & smtp.mail.me.com to smtp.me.com, no matter what you try to enter.
iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
On second step where it asks "Description", it has to be a unique name, but you can still use your email address.
IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
          •          Server name: imap.mail.me.com
          •          SSL Required: Yes
          •          Port: 993
          •          Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
          •          Password: Your iCloud password
SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
          •          Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
          •          SSL Required: Yes
          •          Port: 587
          •          SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
          •          Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
          •          Password: Your iCloud password
Also, you must upgrade your password to meet the new criteria: 8 characters, including upper and lower case and numbers. If you have an older password that does not meet these criteria, when you try to setup mail on your mac, using all of the IMAP criteria listed above, it will still give a server error message. Go to   http://appleid.apple.com         then follow directions to change your password, then go back to setting up your mail using the IMAP instructions above.

Did you add a System DSN or a User DSN? If you added a User DSN from your own login, the asp.net application will not be able to use it unless its application Pool in IIS is configured to run under the same credentials that you used for creating
the DSN. It's better if you add a System DSN.
Also, be careful to ensure that you are using a 64 bit DSN, unless you configure the application to run in 32 bits. If the 64 bit application attempts to use the 32 bit driver you get the same error message "Data source name not found and no default
driver specified". See this KB article:
