Why does Apple sends emails to a google account which is neither my primary nor alternate email address when I change Apple ID password

If making changes to my Apple password, Apple sends the create new password email to a google account which I have for work which is neither my primary nor alternate email address. Have no idea how to stop that - please help? It is not listed on my account as an alternate address.
Thanks

You will need to free up the email that you wish to use as your Apple ID by replacing it with a different email for your recovery email.

  • Why does iTunes/iPhone 4S insist it can't find a song on my PC or my phone when it is on both? This is resulting in me being unable to use the ringtones I created from these songs, but I can still play the songs.

    OK, so I'm clearly a newb. I thought if I asked a question, it would post, and now I'm being told to post a comment, so I'm asking the same question again. Sorry I sound like an idiot. I'm new to this apple/mac stuff.

    If you have added the ringtone file correctly to iTunes, it will appear under iTunes 'Tones' library.
    If you don't find Tones library in iTunes, go to iTunes menu EDIT/PRFERENCES under GENERAL tab, check the Tones Box under Library source to display Tones library in iTunes.
    iTunes accepts only m4r file as ringtone and has to be less than 40secs.

  • Entered incorrect email address when setting up Apple ID, therefore cannot get verification email. Also 'redeemed' $50 iTunes card before mistake was realised.

    Entered incorrect email address when setting up Apple ID, also 'redeemed' $50 iTunes card before mistake was realised. Naturally, the email address cannot be validated, so cannot proceed further. Please help.

    You can't merge IDs, but if you want to change the ID:
    For iMessage, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID sign out, sign back in using the new ID.
    For FaceTime, do the same thing in Settings>FaceTime.
    For Purchasing, do this in Settings>iTunes & App Store.
    For iCloud, start by saving your photo stream photos to your camera roll by opening your My Photo Stream album, tap Select, tap all the photos you want to save, tap the share icon (box with upward pointing arrow), then tap Save to Camera Roll. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and provide the password and choose Keep on My iPhone when prompted, then sign back in with your new ID and choose Merge to upload your data.

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • Why is my ipod nano showing up in itunes device, but neither my iphone nor my mother's iphone are showing up?! Very irritated.

    Do you still have the "Music Video" Smart Playlist in iTunes? If you right click on a video file, which normally shows up under "Movies" you can pick the video type of Movie, Music Video, or TV Show. When you select "Music Video" the video file drops out of the Movies section and if the Music Video playlist is present will show up there.
    You might have deleted that playlist so it wouldn't be on the iPod either.
    So create a Smart Playlist where the rule is Video Kind IS Music Video...

  • Why does iCloud send emails from my other accounts?

    I send emails from my gmail or sbcglobal account and then can't find them. in some cases the recipient does not get them.
    in other cases the person swears they responded but i did not get the email.
    yesterday I hit the "iCloud" email by mistake and discovered that iCloud is sending them from a .me address!
    how do I disable this???
    and, why does this happen in the first place?
    thanks.

    hi! thanks for your reply, pvonk, but I am not sending from the .me address, I am selecting the gmail or sbcglobal address from my options - but .me is sending it instead! it is defaulting to the .me address regardless of what i pick. I find this disturbing. is it something Apple is doing? thanks for any insight.

  • Why does Mozilla send two e-mail every time I send an e-mail?

    Every time I send an e-mail, I see two of the same e-mail in my sent box. Why?
    Also why does Mozilla delete my e-mails off the main server automatically? I like to do it manually.

    Is it really sending it twice or are you just seeing it two times in the sent folder? Some providers like gmail place a copy in your sent folder already so you need to go into Thunderbird settings and tell it not to do it again. Then you will only see if it once in the folder.

  • HT5622 Why can I send a message with an attached photo to one contact on phone or email and can't to another contact. I can sent message on iPhone still I was using messages on iPad

    Why can I send message on iPad messages to one contact and not send same message with same photo to another contact. I can sent message on iPhone to same contact

    I would guess that the problem contact does not have iMessage turned on. The iPad can only send iMessages not SMS messages (phone text). You can send a message to this contact with your iPhone because your iPhone can send SMS text messages.
