when someone texts my email address it no longers shows up as an email in my inbox, only as a imessage, how do I stop that from happening?  I do not use imessage at all.

This is not something on your end.  If they send an iMessage it will arrive as an iMessage, if the send an email it will arrive as an email.
THey are sepearate services that cannot be mixed up.
Tell them to send you an email, rather than an iMessage.
If they are using the messages App it will always arrive as a Message.

    I use Gmail via Firefox and I love it....yet I hate the rude screen change when I hit the "t" key! It just happened again!

    Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot.
    If some specific tabs are reopening on each start them this can be caused by a problem with the prefs.js file that stores the preferences.
    Did you try to delete the prefs.js file and other possible prefs-##.js files with a number?

    When I take photos on my iPhone they end up on my My wife's iPad also. How do we stop that from happening?

    You can do it from the iPad or from a computer, whichever is easiest:
    Set up an Apple ID in iTunes - Apple Support
    And then set up the iCloud account for that Apple ID:

  • I disconnected an email account from my iPhone 4- no longer receive the emails from that account on the phone BUT the address still appears on some outgoing emails?  How can I stop that from happening?

    I have not upgrade to iOS7. I've deleted an email account (gmail incase it makes a difference).  The problem is that the ADDRESS still sometimes used despit the deletion.  Now, one of the reasons I deleted it was that this address would "override" the address I was trying to actually send from even if I manually selected the other address.  How do I get this completely disconnected from the phone without replacing the phone??

    If the old ID is yours, and if your current ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • When I close firefox with ctrl-alt-delete, I want to start over on Firefox, I usually do this when too many tabs and windows are open. However, Firefox always restores the tabs and windows I previously had. How can I stop that from happening?

    This happens when FireFox is not responding, and I want to close firefox with ctrl-alt-delete. Too many tabs can make Firefox crash. That is why I want to use ctrl-alt-delete to close FireFox. I tried finding a way to disable this, but I found no option to.

    Ending the Firefox program or process with the Windows Task Manager "looks like" a crash. The proper way to exit Firefox is click Firefox button > Exit (or File > Exit, if using the Menu Bar).

  • When I turn on my MacBook Pro a box prompts up and it disappears right away. How can I stop this from happening?

    I'm new in the Mac World. In November I bought a MacBook Pro. I love my MacBook, however, a couple of days ago when I turn on my MacBook and log in, a window or box prompts up for about one second and then dissapears. I'm afraid that may be a virus or trojan that may be running behind the screen. How do I fix this? Are there any applications that I can run to detect what is happening to my computer.
    Thank you for your help!!!

    It was very hard to see what the box says because the message displays for less than one second. However, I was able to record it with my iphone and pause it until I got a shot of the message. The box says the following:
    "Do you want the application “java” to accept incoming network connections?
    Clicking deny may limit the application’s behavior. This setting can be changed in the Firewall pane of Security preferences."
    I did make some changes. I will see if it works.
    Thank you!!!

  • When I try to add a new search add-on I get a "Firefox Add-on" search rather than the one I tried to install. How do I stop that from happening?

    The Add-on Manager shows the add-on I downloaded but the drop down menu shows a Firefox Add-on search option.

    The search on the search bar that Has as an icon a green jigs-saw piece and the title ''Firefox Add-ons'' is specifically for searching for Firefox addons, as you may have guessed from its name. It is available from the addons pages.
    It will take you to pages such as https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox or parts of that site. The page https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/search/?atype=4 is actually many pages with over 3000 items offered.
    If with the Firefox dd-ons search engine selected in the search bar you type in IMDb that will give you something like this
    * https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/search/?q=IMDb
    *1 including https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/imdb-search-1/?src=search
    *# that opens to a page with a download button, labelled [Add to Firefox] once clicked that should download the search engine, and give you an option to install it. Other searches for addons work in a similar way.
    That specific option may not be a good choice the add on did not actually work for me.
    * Note many others available from http://mycroftproject.com/imdb-search-plugins.html
    IMPORTANT once you have use the search remember you may wish to reset it to whatever you use in day today browsing. That may be Google. Note the location bar, and other Firefox searches all use whatever is currently selected in the Search bar.

  • When I restored my iphone 4 all my deleted emails were back. like 4000 of them. How do I stop this from happening? Thanks

    I recently restored my iphone 4 when it froze up and when the restore was done, I had over 4000 emails in my inbox. All my deleted messages came back. How do I stop that from happening? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks

    You have POP mail account.   That's how those types of email accounts work.
    You want an IMAP type of account, where if you delete on phone, it will also delete on server.   Should you ever restore your device again it will only update the mail that hasn't been deleted.
    You didn't say which email service you use, but try contacting them to see if they offer IMAP.  Or you can switch.

  • For some reason when my daughter sends a text to someone else I get it and vice versa.  Also, when I send a text to her the text comes to me as well.  How do I stop this from happening?

    For some reason when my daughter sends a text to someone else I get it and vice versa.  Also, when I send a text to her the text comes to me as well.  How do I stop this from happening?

    This is iMessages, not an SMS/MMS, and this means the same Apple ID is registered for iMessage on each iPhone.
    You or your daughter need to activate your own Apple ID for iMessage and FaceTime. The same Apple ID can continue to be shared for iTunes store downloads - for music and apps.
    On the iPhone, go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive.   Select the Apple ID at the top and sign out.   Sign in with the new Apple ID.
    Make sure the same email address is not available below You can be reached by iMessage at on each iPhone.

  • When I send messages, my email address as opposed to my name is shown to the recipient.  How do I change that?

    When I send text messages, my email address is shown to the recipient as opposed to my name.  HOw do I fix that?  Thank you.

    My iTunes appleID is an old defunct e-mail address - it does not have to be functional.
    Do what Winston says to ensure you keep getting correspondence related to that ID.

  • TS2755 I have 2 phones on my apple id acct. And when I text message that person I am getting a duplicate message to myself. How do I stop this from happening

    I have 2 phones attached to my apple ID account and when I text message that person, I am getting a duplicate message sent back to me.  How do I stop this from happening?

    Make 3 different iCloud accounts and use ONLY for iMessage.   That will permanently fix your issue.
