Why people get a wierd email address along side my main address when I reply through iPhone?

Hi,
it was brought to my attention that we I sent a reply to someone through iPhone, first the recipient doesnt see my address in "From" and when they hit reply back to me, another strange email appears along side my email.
For example: I emailed "[email protected]", she gets my email but my email address doenst appear in the "From" field and when press reply back to me, two address appear "mine" and this strange address "[email protected]" which btw keeps chaning with each email exchange to [email protected] o or [email protected]..etc
and this only happens when I send an email from iPhone..it doesnt appear when I use my desktop email client.
is this a normal thing?

We are short on information. Settings may depend on your Mac OSX version, which we don't yet know. Please let us know the version, plus how you are sending/receiving mail: a mail client installed like Apple Mail, Ms Outlook, or Entourage; or by visiting a web site like yahoo, hotmail, or gmail.

  • Somehow my iPad got switched for messaging to showing from my email. There is no option showing to use my phone number. How do I get it back to my phone number? This happened when I upgraded my iPhone today, but it is using the phone number fine.

This happened when I upgraded my iPhone today, but the iPhone messaging is using the phone number fine. It's only the iPad messaging that is messed up. Help, pls.

  • I receive a text from someone but it has an e-mail address at top of message. When I reply and send , it gets returned. Why? and how was original message sent?

    I have downloaded I-Cloud and the new ios program. Where do my text go through now if they don't show up on my bill in the data usage section? When I get a text from friends sometime their e-mail address shows at the top of the message instead of their name like it use to. Then when I reply it gets returned. They tell me they are sending it through the normal text like they use to.

    You are probably right - I don't have my iPad with me and was confusing myself.  But on the iPad it is receive at email addresses only.
    Sending to the phone number will mean ONLY your iPhone gets the message.  If you want it to go to ALL devices, then you should have them send to the email address associated with the AppleID you used to set up iMessage originally.  Also set that email address up as your caller id on the iPhone so as you send out messages, people will reply to that and both your devices should get them.
    Although Apple's notes indicate you should be able to do it - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2755
    what if you just type in a 10-digit phone number on the iPad instead of an email?
    (I originally did all this with iOS 5.0, and I know then the number did not work on an iPad, but maybe with iOS 5 updates, it does now?)

    LEARN THE MEANING OF FOOLPROOF YOU IMBICILES

    Unfortunately you've discovered too late how important it is to maintain an up-to-date backup of your iTunes library (and all other data of value).  You could, before wiping the drive, have considered making use of a commercial data recovery service that could (albeit at considerable cost) have extracted your library from the hard disk, even if virus infected.
    In the absence of that option, you will need to restore the content of your library from its original sources:
    Depending on your location, you may be able to re-download any iTunes Store purchases that are still available on the Store
    Likewise, most digital purchases from Amazon (including auto-rip copies of purchased CDs) should be available from the Amazon Cloud and via the Amazon Music application - the same may be true of other commercial sources for digital downloads
    Content imported from your CDs will have to imported again
    The specific situation that you describe regarding the music imported from your friend's external HDD suggests that either the source is badly organized and/or originates from a source other than iTunes (other media players may use alternative tags for information like artist, title, album, etc. that are not wholly consistent with how iTunes handle these).  Without details of the issues you're seeing it is difficult to suggest a remedy other than going through the media album-by-album, track-by-track, and correcting the inconsistencies.
    In the absence of a backup or access to the original library data there is no option other than painstakingly recreating your library as described above.  As you do so, you'll now realize how important creating and maintaining backups are - in my case I have at all times three separate duplicates of my library, in two different locations, where none is ever more than a week old compared to the content of my master library.

  • Why am I not seeing the people CC on an email in my apple mail but I see them on my iphone?

    I just received an email with 5 other people CC'd in on the email. I can see them clearly on my iphone but one my iMac in Apple Mail I can only see the sender.
    thoughts?
    thanks!

    I have checked "Use classic layout", in Mail / Preferences / Viewing, and this is an example of the header of a test email I sent to myself and cc myself.

    My guess is all the issues are probably related and fall back to malware.
    AVG is probably correct in identifying malware. So I suggest you try some cleaning tools other than Emsisoft .
    ones I use (all of them one after the other until I find one that can cope) are;
    Roguekiller http://www.adlice.com/softwares/roguekiller/
    Malwarebytes anti malware Free http://www.malwarebytes.org/mwb-download/var2/confirm/
    ESET online scanner http://www.eset.com/int/home/products/online-scanner/
    So first create a clean boot in Windows using Microsoft's instructions https://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135?wa=wsignin1.0 and then run the anti malware applications.
    My outside looking in guess is that malware has set itself up as an internet proxy and is is downloading copies of itself and other malware, blocking some mail port as times as downloading more malware is more important, and probably breaking your tivo as well..
    Try the malware programs first. If that does not work I will try and talk you through some logging to see what is happening.

  • When I "Reply All" on an email, it gets sent to me also

    In any email program I have ever used, including the iPhone and Apple Mail on the Mac, when you click "Reply All", it takes your own email out of the reply list so you don't get a copy of the email you are replying to. But my iPad isn't doing that. Unless I manually take my address out, when I do a "Reply All", it includes my name in the reply and I get the email in both my Sent folder and Inbox.
    I've looked for an option to disable this, but can't find one. Frankly, I've never seen an option to turn this kind of thing off and on. It's basically just doesn't happen and you can't change. But with my iPad, it basically does happen and it appears you can't change that behavior.
    Any clues? If this is the way it works, this has to be a bug and not a design flaw. Thanks.

    The company uses one email address as our default name for Exchange accounts, but people can send me emails with slightly different aliases: [email protected], [email protected] etc. If I reply to emails that reached me through one of these aliases, Mail does not recognize that all these addresses are actually mine. Therefore, when I "reply all", I end up on the CC list. I wonder if you have a similar problem.
    I am not sure how that works on an iPad, but on Mac Mail program, I can add additional email addresses in Preferences -> Accounts -> "Account Information" tab -> "Email Address" entry, separated by one comma and a space each. This prevents Mail from replying to myself.

  • Sender's signature picture gets replaced when I reply to sender. Any solutions? Thanks.

    Client's signature picture gets replaced by random logo when I reply to the email.

    Yahoo has messed with their stuff lately (honestly they've been messing with their servers for months)

    These have applied to people not able to get mail but changing the settings may help you and your wife. (My yahoo is still working so I haven't needed to try any of these)
    I've noticed with my Yahoo that they've changed their login protocols. For example 'stay signed in' is always clicked and the push is for people to merge multiple accounts to access their multiple yahoo from one account/sign in instead of signing out/in to access different accounts. I'm wondering if that change is what's messing with the protocols needed for iOS mail to work. But no one really knows for sure (and neither Apple or Yahoo will comment on the issue)
    About all users can do is find work arounds that work for them.
    If these don't work or if you don't want to use the yahoo mail app, you might try using safari to go to yahoo.com and access your mail that way.

  • Why do other people get my messages that I send to a specific person

    Why do other people get my messages that I send to a specific person

    They may have all signed into the same ID for iMessage when they updated their devices.  To fix this you have a couple of choices:
    On all but one of the devices go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID (so each person's devices are using a separate ID for iMessage).  Note: you can still share the same ID for purchasing in Settings>iTunes & App Stores; or
    On all of the devices go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and uncheck the email address(es) shown under "You can be reached by iMessage at".  Also uncheck anyone else's phone number, if present.
    I you are sharing the same ID for FaceTime you may end up getting each other's FaceTime calls too.  To prevent this, go to Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID (so each person's devices are using a different ID for FaceTime too).

  • TS3899 Can two people have the same email address and password on their phone?

    Can two people have the same email address and password on their phone?

    I guess so.    But the email content will mirror on both phones.
    If you are talking about your Apple ID and iCloud email, yes, it is possible, but again the phones will mirror.   You should not have the same Apple ID and iCloud both.  
    Why?
    If you explain the reason for the question we may have a solution that works for you.

    Does your daughters email address show up as one of the options in the From line as discussed above? If so, try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank then power ON again in the normal way.] It is 'appsolutely' safe!

  • Why does my google email address appear on emails I send from a different address on my iPad?

    I have a number if email accounts on my iPad 2. Recently I have noticed that whichever account I send an email from if is received with my google email address so I get all responses to that address which isn't what I want! The google account is not set as my default account so I do not understand why this is happening. It is only a recent thing as I have previously been able to send emails from my default account and have that put in the sender line without any problem. At the moment the software is changing the sender address between me sending it (I have checked the from field in the email and it is always the address I want it to go from) and it actually being received by the recipient.
    Has anyone else experienced this?

    Look through the email account that is your default for sending. Make sure that you have set the correct outgoing mail server.

  • Why is Adobe selling my email address?

    Can you please tell me why you are selling my email address? I am now getting my inbox full of spam!

    I started receiving spam on 6th February. The chat session went like this...
    Pradeep: Please be informed that Adobe does not sell the email address to any third parties.  Also there is no reports of any suspicious activity on our servers.  Is there anything else I can help you with
    Me: Okay, so the only explanation is that someone has successfully circumvented your security and taken information without your knowledge?
    Pradeep: I am sorry but Adobe has all the confidential information stored securely.  We have not lost any of our information.... We do not have any confidential data lost from our servers.
    Me: Either you are lying or the adobe website is wrong.  http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/customer-alert.html
    He went on to tell me that my information was not lost in the October 2013 incident.  So there must be another one.  All mails sent to my adobe address are now being redirected to spamcop and I am very unimpressed with Pradeep's response.
