TS3276 How to prevent mail from adding contact details taken from the adress book

Hi!
I don't know if this is the right place to ask about my issue but here it goes!
I use apple mail extensively having switched from entourage since outlook is by far no match to entourage. Anyhow my problem is that every time i add an email address in one of the TO recipients of a new email the mail program finds the name of that person in my my contacts and adds it to the initial email address.
I stretch out this is not the known problem where one wants to hide the contact names of a mail send to a group as a disclosed recipients mail.
I simply war to sent the mail without any delails added taken from my address book. In other words when i send a mail to say [email protected] I don't want the program to add the name of that person and send a mail to John Doe [email protected]
Anyone any ideas?

Sorry to disappoint you, SayWhat0, but unfortunately this is not possible. Apple did not include such a setting and this solution is what I'd call a workaround really. It solves the problem, but as you've mentioned not without drawbacks. I believe there is no other way to resolve this at the moment.
I have already reported the issue via this link http://www.apple.com/feedback/mail.html
All I could suggest is to do the same and hope Apple will introduce a setting for this.

How to prevent mail app on OS X & iOS from automatically marking email messages as read just when they are selected either intentionally or not

Good morning guys
is there a way to prevent mail app on OS X & iOS from automatically marking email messages as read just when they are selected either intentionally or not
thanks

On OS X, You are able to hide the preview window on the right in normal mode, or on the lower side in classic mode, by simply putting your cursor on the thin bar which is in between, and then make it as small as possible, so it goes away.
Then your messages won't be automatically read when clicked once, but only if you click them twice and a new window with the message opens.
Also, you are able to mark them as unread again, which is a silly workaround, but possible.
You can do that by right clicking and select 'Mark as...' -> unread.
On iOS, I'm not sure..

How can I direct all my contact form replies (from my website), to my personal email address?

How can I direct all my contact form replies (from my website), to my personal email address?
I have embedded the code to my website but would like all of my contact form replies to be directed to my email address. How can I do this by revising the embedded code. Also will I still be able to receive replies after recieving 5000? At this point will I need a premium account?

Email notifications are a feature of the Basic and Plus account.
The free account only allows for 50 responses. The Plus (Premium) account allows for 5000.

I cannot receive texts from one contact after updating to the iOS7 system - why?

amyhs, thanks for those details. This is certainly quite odd that this has been going on so long and we definitely want to get to the bottom of this. Now, you stated that you have reached out to technical support and spoke with a tier two technical support representative. At this time, what actions or troubleshooting steps were taken? Are you aware if a ticket with our network technicians was ever created? As well, have you ever previously had an iPhone and are you aware if the users that are unable to message you are using iMessage?

Please Rephrase your query.

Is there a way to specify which fields are displayed in the "new contact" window in the adress book, or at least highlight the ones that are important to me?

It would be nice if I could put together the fields in the "new contact" window in the adress book, or at least highlight the ones I need with bold letters or a different color. Is there a way? Thank you.

No method I am aware of.
This add-on adds many features, but I don't know if what you seek is included.

How to prevent mail from breaking web links into multiple lines?

Hey all!
When I send someone a long web link that is pretty long, Mail breaks it into several lines and at the end the user cannot use this link right away, he needs to "assemble it by parts" first.
Is there a way to prevent mail from doing this?
Thanks,
Artemiy.

Also you could use tinyurl - this is exactly what its designed for.

Preventing select-string from adding additional undesired strings in the output file

Hi friends
in PS 4.0 i am trying to write a function which
step1: export the list of all eventlogs ----> wevtutil el > "$home\documents\\loglist1.txt"
step2: deleted the following two lines from loglist1.txt
DebugChannel
Microsoft-RMS-MSIPC
( the reeson of deleting these two lines is wevtutil cl command, can't clear these two evenlogs among approximately 1000 logs)
in fact via select-string with -pattern -notmatch parameters, we select anything except these two line
step3: pastes the select-string contents into the same file ("$home\documents\loglist1.txt") or into new text file (for example
"$home\documents\loglist2.txt")
here is my code:
function MycleareventsAll {
cls
Wevtutil el > "$home\documents\loglist1.txt"
$mycontents = select-string "$home\documents\loglist1.txt" -pattern DebugChannel, Microsoft-RMS-MSIPC -NotMatch
cd "$home\documents\"
$mycontents | out-file loglist2.txt"
# also i tried ---> $mycontents | set-content "loglist2.txt"# also i tried ---> $mycontents | set-content "loglist1.txt"
but the problem is, in addition of deletion, unfortunatelly additional strings (filepath, filename, line number) are added into the final text file so wevtutil will fail clearing logs listed in text file.
here is contents of the final text file
C:\Users\Administrator\documents\loglist.txt:1:Analytic
C:\Users\Administrator\documents\loglist.txt:2:Application
C:\Users\Administrator\documents\loglist.txt:4:DirectShowFilterGraph
but i need the contents be the same as original file without that two specific line:
Analytic
Application
DirectShowFilterGraph
i searched but i didn't find a way to prevent select-string cmdlet from adding these edditional strings
(filepath, filename, line number) into output file while keeping the original contents.
note: -quiet parameter is not what i want. it removes all contents & simply inserts a true or false.
any help?

don't forget that Guys here know the basics of security such as clearing event logs & ...
how odd if you don't know this.
clearing all events is useful in test environment for example when i ma teaching my students & need to see all newly created events & work on them
Then you are teching your students how not to use an event log. We use filters and queries to access event logs. We also use event log CmdLets in PowerShell. WEVTUTIL is ok but it does not marry wellwith PowerShell as you have seen.
I have found very few people who are not certified in WIndows administration that know much about eventlogs when it should be a ver important part of administration. PowerShell has mmade EL management much easier but few take the time to learn how
to use the EL support in PowerShell.
I see no point inclearing event logs. It accomplishes nothing.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
oh your are introducing me filters & queries in event viewer !! please stop Laughing me this way.
your problem is you judge about people's knowledge & you persist on your absurd judgments.
look at your sentence:
"Then you are teaching your students how not to use an event log"
where from you tell this? have you been present in my classes to see what i teach to my students?
have you seen that i told to my students not to use event viewer?
my goal of clearing events is related to myself. it's non of your businesses.
people are not interested to here concurrent irrelevant advises from you like a grandmother. they are searching for a solution. their intent of doing tasks is not up to you.

How to prevent duplicates in your contacts

When syncing two iphones via icloud with your computer how do I prevent duplicate contacts between both phones, icloud and yahoo?

I have 11 people designated under faces.
Do you see the 11 People when using the "Faces" view from the source list in the Library Inspector or from the "Faces" button in the toolbar?
If you are using the Faces button from the toolbar, you may have been excluding faces stacks you already created. Then, when you enter search strings, Aperture will suggest names from your contacts and you may create the same stack again.
Also, if the search field is not empty, you may already have more "Faces" stacks than you are actually seeing.
As you certainly know, you can always unite "Faces" stacks by dragging a stack onto the other to merge them. The merged stack will use the name of the stack you dragged to.

Léonie

Here's how I successfully transferred all my Contacts and Pictures from PC!

Hi,
By no means a detailed How-To, but I wanted to share my experience in transferring my contacts and music from a PC with Vista to a new Mac. Note that my contacts were "Windows Contacts" (not Outlook), and the events I had on my calendar where not really synced in the PC, I just had them on the iPhone.
But I had this question on another forum, and I guess some people might have similar issues:
(I also transferred all my songs)
Just in case someone has a similar issue, here's how it all went down:
1. I backed up iTunes from the PC with built in backup function.
2. De-authorized songs in the PC right after.
3. After setting up the iMac, I loaded the backup DVD. I opened iTunes on the new iMac and selected "import" and pointed to the DVD. (If your library is too big, use several Dual-Layered DVD's as the backups can performed on several discs)
4. It imported the entire music Library, shows in playlists as "Imported Library 2007-28-11"
5. Clicked on "authorize" and done.
HERE IS WHERE THE STRESS STARTED, OR SO I THOUGHT
6. Connected the iPhone, it immediately asked if I wanted to sync up the pictures. I clicked "yes". Sent all pictures TAKEN WITH THE iPHONE to iPhoto.
7. Clicked on the iPhone icon on the sidebar in iTunes (where the sync and restore options are), navigated to the "info" tab, selected contacts and calendar and synced.
8. Gave me a warning message saying info on MY iMAC would be altered by more than 5%, I said OK and TA-DAN! I had my calendar synced with iCal and my contacts synced with Address book! All the info on my iPhone actually transferred to the iMac with NO HASSLES!.
Not only that, Safari was able to import all my bookmarks from Firefox on my PC! This is most awesome and unexpected! The only thing I noticed is that my purchased songs from my old iTunes on the PC do not appear under "Purchased" in my new iTunes; so when I synced up the iPhone with the music, they also DO NOT appear in the phone under the "purchased" playlist. The songs are there, and they work fine, they just don't appear on that particular playlist, they appear on the main Library and under the "Backup" Library...
Still, that's a minor detail. Everything went smooth and I love my new Mac!
Switch from PC = Easy!

Well, you can disable the automatic start up of iTunes. That is done in Edit>preferences>Devices and place a checkmark by "prevent iPods, iPhones, etc". Have you been syncing the iPhone in the past? If so, were you using a supported application to sync your address book to? As far as pictures are concerned, you are generally prompted to import your pictures, and if it was me and I took a series of important pictures, the FIRST thing I would have done when I got to the computer was to import the photos.
Check your Windows Address book to see if they are there. If not, you will not be able to recover them.

How to prevent Mail form marking the messages as read when marked?

I use Mail 3.0 on Leopard (10.5.1).
Each time I click on a message, it automatically marks the message as read.
Is there any way to prevent this from happening? How can i set up a time-delay or switch it off?

I think the only way would be for Apple to implement a delay for marking files as read. Perhaps putting a delay of a second or two would work, so folks can browse through their mail without actually reading it. As it is, though, there's no way to prevent mail from marking a message you browse over.

How to use Mail to sent messages when away from home

How do I have to configure my "Mail" on my PowerBook G-4 (OS 10.4.5) in order to use it in a WIFI enviroment?
At home when connected via Airport to my own Outgoing Mail Server (smtp 8. sympatico.ca) I have absolutely no problems. However, last year I was on a Cruise Ship and tried to use the existing WiFi System. I could receive messages using Mail, but I could not send messages using Mail.
At the moment I'm visiting my son in the Boston area and I'm having the same problem. I was forced to use the Sympatico Web Mail in order to sent E-mail messages. (receiving mail using "Mail", represents no problem)
There has to be a way to configure Mail to originate messages and sent them as well, but I cannot find anything which tells me how to do that.
The version presently installed for Mail is 2.0.7.
Any help in this regard would be greatly appreciated!
Best Regards,
Hank

Hank,
The problem here is your ISP (looks like its Sympatico) blocking connections to their mail server from computers not connected directly to their network. I wouldn't blame your ISP though b/c as I understand it almost ALL ISPs block these type of connections to cut down on SPAM being sent.
What you need to do is to find the outgoing mail server for the network you are on.
For example, if you look on the "Mail" settings on your Son's computer and note his "Outing Mail Server" (in the "Accounts" pain of "Mail" prefs) settings and then go to your machine and put in that same "Outgoing Mail Server" info then you should be fine.
You can do this on your machine by selecting "Add Server..." from the "Outgoing Mail Server" drop down menu. When the window comes up just type in the same settings your Son uses. If he does not have a machine with mail setup on it then you can call his ISP and they'll tell you.
Remember to switch the "outgoing mail server" back to your home server when you return home. By the way, most places (like hotels) will give you their outgoing mail server info if you ask them, so next time you're on a cruise with wifi you might try asking the IT people.
Best of luck,
Allen

How can i get newly added contacts for a Mailbox User in Exchange Server 2013

Hi all,
I need to synchronize contacts in Exchange Server and Sugar CRM Application, for that
i need to get newly added contacts for a User in Exchange Server 2013 by using EWS Managed API.
I know how get the list of all contacts for a particular user , but in the list how i can find
new contacts ?

Hi Dora,
that's the fun thing:
You add your own property (and it'll be invisible to outlook users, not to worry).
Extended Properties allow you to define custom property on Exchange Items. And it has a
method for setting those too.
Here's a short post doing a very simple intro on using Extended Properties.
Glen's Exchange Blog is a generally useful resource when working with EWS, I'm confident you'll be able to find lots of tips there as well.
Cheers,
Fred
