Safari always remembers wrong email address

Once I typed my email address wrong (with a '.' in place of a '-') in a form and since then Safari always auto-completes with the wrong address regardless of how many times I've corrected it. I've tried clearing the cache and also resetting(?) Safari (the option above clearing the cache -- not sure what it would be called in English), but the bad address is still there. Is there a file I can edit or remove somewhere? Thanks in advance for help..

Welcome, notmuch!
With Safari open,
Go up to the main Safari pull down menu,
next to the Apple icon (top left).
Select "Preferences" then AutoFill.
Double click on all categories, and see if you can find your wrong email address.
Also, make sure it's correct in your Address Book> the "Me" card.

Safari autocompletes wrong email address for me

When I go to a website that Safari feels like recognizing, sometimes it offers to fill in my contact info for me. But I have learned to decline this, because for some reason it wants to use my evernote email address as listed in my contact card for myself instead of the "home" email address also stored there. I feel like asking, how do I tell Safari to use the email address I want instead of picking apparently the worst possible choice to auto-fill for me?

It is not there as an autofill. The prompt to use this address only comes up when I start typing my email address into some web form. Then this little prompt pops up attached to the field I'm filling in that says something like "do you want to fill this in with your contact info?" Again, I'm having trouble finding a site that asks for it. I'll hack one up if I get time and post what exactly it looks like and says, I think that will be helpful here.

When I attach PDF to an email, it uses the wrong email address

I recently added an email account to my Outlook. It is not the default email account, but Acrobat defaults to that address whenever I attach a PDF to an email. Within Acrobat, the Identity under Preferences includes the correct email address. My MS Office applications use my correct, default email address when send from them. In Windows, the correct email is set at the default email and Outlook is my default email application. It is only Acrobat that defaults to the wrong email account. How can I fix this?
I am using Acrobat 9 Standard
I attach PDFs to email my clicking on the envelop icon. A new message in outlook automatically opens, but the "From" field in the new email message contains the wrong email address. I have also tried File/Attach to Email with the same results.

You are facing this error because Outlook is your default email Client and you have configured it for different e-mail Address than the one which you intend to send mail from.
So i would recommend you to either Add the other e-mail account( The one from which you want to send file) in outlook so that you have a choice while sending the file.
OR
You can remove the currently configured e-mail account from outlook, and reconfigure outlook for that e-mail address which you want to use for file sending purpose.
P.S.- Acrobat will always use the e-mail address associated with your Default e-mail Client ( Outlook in your case.)
Hope that answers your question. Please revert back for any other query or assistance.

Safari not recognizing my email address

Safari is rejecting my email address and says it is not a valid address. I type in the same address running Firefox and I don't have a problem. Does anyone have a solution for me to get Safari to recognize my .mac email address?

Hi,
Quit Safari
Open Keychain Access. (Applications/Utilities) Find the "Safari AutoFill" item. Delete it.
Relaunch Safari. Next time it asks for authorization, click "Always Allow".

Entered Wrong Email Address : Help Needed - Probably a Simple Solution But Driving Us Crazy

Recently, when signing into a website I have used successfully many times - I accidentally typed in the last few letters of my email address wrongly ( email address and password are required to log on to the site) Now I can't access the site at all because I enter my correct email address when asked, but as soon as I move down to enter my password...the email address reverts back to the one I typed in wrongly and of course the site dosent recognize me. I have turned off and on my auto fill thing, cleared my cookies, reset Safari, tried all the simple things I know but they haven't worked. I suspect the solution will be an easy one for those that know more than I do ( which isn't alot!) and would be grateful for some quick advice!

You will need to contact the website. Have you checked to see if the site has customer or tech support?

Wrong email address in Lens Creator to submit profile within the program

Dear Eric and others,
I have discovered the error in why people cannot submit the profiles from within the Lens Creator Profile application. The wrong email address is specified, which is "lcpfiles", and that is all, no further adobe part to it.
As Simon pointed out, use an email program to send these to [email protected] I have sent two profiles today using email full "Outlook" program, and attached the file to the email, using the full email stated by Simon.
I believe that the link & email address within the Lens Creator tool for email submission of profiles, needs mofication in your final version, thanks.
Regards,
Debra Gillilan

Thanks Simon, glad to help.
A product always has a greater possibility to turn out to be a success when everyone on the product's team pitches in and strives for success, even in small ways. You all are doing a great job with implementing and explaining the lens profile tool.
I'll have other profiles to submit, the next one coming from my Nikon D2X body for the Nikon 12-24mm f4 AFS ED DX Lens, I"ve shot my images, I just need to process the images within the application. I would rather develop my own profiles for my own specific copies of lenses, to be quite honest, whenever possible.
I think the lens profiling tool is an asset to the Photoshop package and I am glad to see Adobe fully implementing this tool. I am very glad that I purchased the full Photoshop software package a few years ago - it is a true and very worthwhile investment for a photographer, in so many ways.
Kind regards,
Debra Gillilan

Autofill keeps using the wrong email address.

Autofill keeps using the wrong email address. I have multiple email addresses that I use for work and at home. I have deleted the some and changed the order they are in "my contact" where it takes me to edit Autofill. After I make the changes, it always puts the one I don't want to autofill back on the top.
Autofill is also leaving out my address and phnoe number, even though they are in my contact page.
Thanks,
Todd

Hi,
I think nothing we (including you) can do if other printer OR printers print your document(s). But normally, the print job(s) will fail because you need to be in the list of authorized users. Now, back to your printer, have you setup that list otherwise anyone can use your printer.
Regards.

HT5622 I changed my Apple password and I get the information at the wrong email address. The correct email shows in my Apple account. Why is the mail going to the wrong email? How do I fix it?

I changed my Apple password and I get the information back at the wrong email address. My email address is right under my Apple ID. How do I get this corrected?

That is good. In that case, your one and only account has not changed, just the login credentials you use for it. All your previous purchases will remain associated with that account, and the new login.
In essence, an AppleID is an email, but it has two parts. One is the login email address and password everyone traditionally thinks of as an AppleID. But that in turn is linked to an account with Apple. As long as you use the manage Apple ID portal to just change the email address and/or password for your exisiting AppleID, then the internal account tracks along with those changes as well.
However, on your iOS devices, you will need to log out and then log back in with the new login credentials:
settings -> iTunes & App Stores - tap your AppleID, and choose log out. Then log back in with the new email address and new password.

Thanks for your reply. Having read through relevant topics it suggests that if I sync my iphone with the correct account on my pc it should use that one thereafter. i will try both.

I accidentally created an iCloud account using the wrong email address for my username - I already have an iCloud account with a different email address username. Is there any way I can merge these accounts?

I just upgraded my MacBook from OS X 10.6.8 to Mountain Lion so that I could stream from my other devices (iPhone and iPad) to my MacBook. After making it through the upgrade process, I realized that I used the wrong email address for my iCloud username when starting up on the MacBook. My iPhone, iPad, and iTunes are under my Hotmail email address and I accidently used my Gmail email address for the MacBook. Is there any way I can merge these two icloud accounts together? I tried changing my account information to add the other email address, but wasn't allowed because another account was using the name (duh). If I can't merge them, how could I change the MacBook from the Gmail address to the Hotmail address so that all my devices are on the same icloud account? It'd be nice if I could keep the free 5GB of storage that comes with my purchase of the software, but I'd rather lose the storage than not be able to stream.

To change accounts on your Mac, go to System Preferences, sign out of the current account, then sign into the new account. When you sign out of the current account it will delete synced data from your Mac. Assuming your data (such as contacts, calendars, etc.) is in the other iCloud account, it will be synced to your Mac when you sign into this account.

My 4S died and I was given a new one. Now I can't get it to sync with my old info. I think I put the wrong email address for my apple ID, how can I change it?

My 4S died this week and I was told it could not be repaired, so I was issued a new one. During set up I could not remember my password, so set up a new one. I think I used the wrong email address, not sure. At any rate, now my phone and pad don't sync. How can I get this corrected? Thanks!

It looks like your printer isn't on the list of air print enabled printers. It'll still work, you just need to do some tweaking.
You can see if samsung has any apps to enable printing.
or
You can look into a third party app like Print n Share or Print Central.
Then you can print from your iPad.

I'm embarrassed to ask this: when I click to initiate a new email message in the "From" box it automatically chooses the wrong email address (I have three but use one mainly). How can I get the right choice to appear automatically?

I'm embarassed to ask this: when I click on the new mail icon to write a new email message, in the box "FROM" appears the wrong email address: I have three but mainly use one. How can I correct this so that the right email address appears in the "FROM" box?

I assume this is Apple Mail. Try this:
Preferences > Accounts > your-first-account
Select Outgoing Mail Server of account/name you wish to use and check Use only this server
Repeat for other accounts.
