Safari Autofill email

Hello All
I have thing that bugs the **** out of me, when I use autofill in Safari it automatically enters my work email address from my Address Book, how do make my home email the default?
My home email address appears as the first entry in address book, how do you change the default autofill email address?
Any ideas?

Hi
Unfortunately I've already tried this to no avail. I can't help wondering whether it is coming from somewhere else?. The erroneous data pops up in a sort of "speech bubble" with an x to the right hand side of it if I don't want to accept the autofill data
Thanks

  • Incorrect autofill email in safari

    Hi
    This has been driving me mad, I've checked google and the forum and find several references to autofill drawing the autofill email details from contacts, however I've checked that and I can't find the problem.
    The issue is with my wife's email address, at some point in the past she has obviously mistyped her email address and safari has "remembered" that error and now autofill overtypes what she has typed this time with the incorrect version. Her error just misses one letter.
    I've looked everywhere and can't find where the problem is, any help would be much appreciated
    I'm using OS X Yosemite version 10.10.2
    Thanks

  • Since installing Snow Leopard safari autofill won't work

    I have checked the safari autofill preferences and have the top box and bottom box checked (not the middle passwords).
    This used to work well as soon as I would enter one letter in a form it would complete it.  Now I must type in everything even in websites I have visited often and recently.
    I had the "word won't print or save as" problem but installing the new 1.1 security update fixed that but not this autofill problem.
    What can I do now?

    Thanks for the link, but it still doesn't work for me.  It fills in some of the information but refuses to do postcodes & countries and telephone numbers are a bit random.  It still doesn't do email addresses on many sites - even sites I visit every day.  The only thing it gets correct consistently is the first line of my postal address.  I tried deleting the contact, creating a new one and making it me - but it still does exactly the same thing.
    I finally gave up and ran Chrome.  Oh the joy of coming back to a site I visited only yesterday and have all the data I entered available at the click of a mouse;  instead of taking minutes to book airport parking it takes seconds!  It's like browsers used to be (and, incidentally, much faster than Safari and correctly renders all the sites I visit).   It's so frustrating that Apple can't make something work that other browsers have been doing for decades.

  • I'm hooked up to the ethernet using DHCP with manual address. It's running (green) but my internet (Safari, messenger, email) doesn't work! Help!

    I'm running an iMac with Mountain Lion. Not only do we do accounting work on this computer with AccountEdge, but the computer functions as a server to another computer in a different state.
    Anyway, I set a static IP address (Using DHCP with manual address) on it (to allow for a VPN to the computer in the different state) and it is connected (green dot) - meaning that the other computer in the different state can connect to us via that ethernet line - but for some reason Safari, Messanger, and Apple Email won't work.
    But if I switch a dynamic IP (DHCP auto), I can use the internet (Safari, messanger, email), but the computer in the different state can't connect to this computer.
    How can I fix this so that the computer in the different state can connect to this computer and that the internet (Safari, messanger, and email) can work at the same time?
    Much thanks!

    No but if they are using a VPN Tunnel for the connection that restricts all internet traffic over the tunnel. Which means you can't use that same computer to broswe the internet or connect to other computers or devices on your LAN.
    I'd need to see the actual setup, router and the IP addresses you are using.
    Networking and remote networking is fairly easy when you are in front of the systems you are working on. Doing it over the internet on a forum is almost impossible. Tha is why I suggested you get local help, like the person that originally set it up.

  • I can using AirPrint from safari and email to my hp printer but do not get print as an option from the pulldown menu from the new york times and other apps. How can I print directly from these apps?

    I can't seem to print directly from apps like the new York times. Print is not an option from the pulldown menu. Print to my hp printer works  fine from safari and email though and from some other apps. Do some apps not permit printing? That doesn't right.

    Thats funny. If go to ny times on safari therebis a print icon and no problem printing. On the app -- and I am a paid subscriber -- no print option ...  
    You can ask the NY Times why not.
    Standard behavior is that Airprint always works with iBooks, Mail, Photos, and Safari.  Apps are up to their author.

  • Is there a good either discussion or website or something on printing from the iPad? I'd like to figure out how to print from Safari or email (comcast). Thx

    I am having trouble - read can't - print from safari or email off my iPad. I can print from several printer apps I installed, so I know the iPad sees the printer, hp 8500. So how does one print something off safari or xfinity email.

    Read this: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
    The HP 8500 is not one of the supported printers; the HP 8500A is one of the supported printers.

  • I'm unable to print from safari and email on iPad 2, I'm newbie

    Hi there,
    I have the new iPad 2, I understand that it should be able to print from safari and email. I've seen AirPrint floated around, but it doesn't appear to be an app in the app store since my searches come up empty. I've printed before from my iTouch using PrintMagic but it's cut and paste to plain text document and I print wirelessly to the printers connected to my iMac.
    I would really like the email and the web page to remain formated. I've seen Print Central but it seems convoluted to get it to print, I've also seen a youTube video print directly from Safari and email programs that's desirable but the videos didn't show how to set up printer (it's kind of Walter Foster) there seems to be some steps that are missing. Could someone fill in the blanks? it would be appreciated.
    Thanks
    JLS

    Ok.  Airprint is built into the ipad.  There is no app. It is a printer driver system that some printer manufacturers have incorporated and some have not.
    If you have an airprint printer, then printing is simple and formatted like you expect itmto be.
    If you do not have an airprint enabled printer, then you need an app, like the ones you mentioned, and are stuck with the issues you mention.
    Nobody wants to buy a new printer.  But they start at well under 100.  The next time you need to refill your rprint cartriges, you might find it worthwhile to do the switch to a new airprint printer.
    Here is the current list of airprint enabled printers.

  • Editing Safari AutoFill

    I am trying to edit the information in Safari Autofill, but cannot find the form to do it. The Help information says: "Choose Preferences from the Safari menu and click AutoFill. Select the items you want Safari to use.", but when I select Preferences, there is no AutoFill option. Is it somewhere else?

  • Safari/Autofill not working?

    My Autofill form does not seem to be working.
    Do you have a solution?

    HI,
    Open Keychain Access. (Applications/Utilities) Select Passwords on the left then Delete the "Safari AutoFill" item. Quit Keychain Access.
    Relaunch Safari. Navigate to a site that requires your username and password. Click "Always Allow" when prompted.

    how can i increase the font size on Safari and email so my mother who is legally blind in left eye, right eye 50% vision.  r there any apple product specifically for the blind?

    From the Safari menu bar click View > Zoom In  or press Command + on the keyboard to increase the size of the page.
    If that doesn't help, open System Preferences > Accessibilty > Settings then select Zoom on the left.
    You can also increase the resolution on the dislplay. System Preferences > Displays > Display > Scaled
    You can also get help by posting in the Apple Support Communities > Vision forum here.

  • Can't share a link in safari through email on ipad air

    i am unable to share a link when I'm in safari using email in my iPad air. The email text box just disappears  

    I have your same issue, iPad air and iOS 8.3
    It was working till two days ago, but since then it's impossible to share anything from Safari
    When I choose the recipient or the recipients the email text box disappears
    It would be great to know how to reset Safari
    It works just fine on my iPhone and  my Mac but not on the iPad
    I tried everything, close safari, reset history and data, restart the ipad, restart holding both ipad buttons, the problem is still there
    If I try to share through Messages it works, just the Mail is not working

  • Help! Safari Autofill stopped working for no reason.

    My Safari autofill has suddenly stopped working. It used to be that when a form came up on safari I could start filling it out and hit tab and it would fill in the entire form. Now it looks like it might fill in that line, but if I hit tab it doesn';t even complete the line that is highlighted. I think this started to happen after I did the latest OS X software update -- I am now running 10.4.11. I checked autofill on safari and it seems to have all the appropriate boxes checked. And if I go to the pull down menu and pull down edit and do autofill forms, it will do it. But why won't it do it using tab any more?
    thanks so much,
    Katarina

  • I'm connected to the Wi-Fi network OK but safari and email say I'm not connected to internet

    I'm connected to the Wi-Fi network OK but safari and email say I'm not connected to internet so nothing happens.

    You may not really be connected to your WiFi network.
    Your router may not have given your iPad a valid IP address. Go to Settings > Wifi > your network name and touch the ">" to the right to see the network details. If the IP address starts with 169 or is blank then your router didn't provide an IP address and you won't be able to access the Internet.
    Sometimes the fix can be as simple as restarting your router (remove power for 30 seconds and restart). Next, reset network settings on your iPad (Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings) and then attempt to connect. In other cases it might be necessary to update the router's firmware with the latest from the manufacturer's support web pages.
    If you need more help please give more details on your network, i.e., your router make, model and version, the wifi security being used (WEP, WPA, WPA2), etc.

    The iBook does not have a backup (PRAM) battery. It only has the main battery and a small capacitor which maintains the settings long enough to do a battery swap. If the battery is dead, what you are seeing can happen.
    If the battery is not a problem (or even if it is), you could try resetting the PMU and see if that helps.
