Wrong email content

Once or twice a week I get an email from a trusted source and the content is junk. When I check the same email on my MacBookPro it has the correct content. (By junk I mean incorrect content, sometimes an ad sometimes content from another trusted source.) Is this an iOS, iPhone5, SBCGlobal.net, hacker or Mail issue? How do I stop it?

The most reliable way to add a Unicode dingbat or similar character to every message, either via your signature or some other way.

  • Trying to update apps in iTunes but wrong email keeps popping up

    I just recently upgraded to Yosemite and have been trying to update two apps on my desktop (iPhoto and iMovie).
    I am logged into my proper account but when I click the update button it asks me to sign in with the wrong email. I have tried logging out and back in again to no avail.
    I will say that the email the it is bringing up was mine, but is an old company email that I no longer have access to.
    I have tried to search for a solution but they all end with having to log out and back in which I have already tried. I am sure I can log in with the old email but I want to figure out why it is picking that one up and is not letting me change it for the future.
    Thanks

    Did you update your old iTunes account or create a new one ? If you updated the old one then try logging out of your account by tapping on your id in Settings > Store and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on the iPad. If you created a new account then you will need to continue to use the old account to download updates to its apps (or to redownload its content) - content is tied to the account that bought/downloaded it and it can't be transferred to a different account.

  • How to sign into icloud account on iphone when icloud is showing the wrong email address?

    i can sign into my icloud account on pc and i can sign into my apple account on pc and phone, but i cannot sign into icloud on my iphone. icloud is showing the wrong email address on phone only and i don't see where to change it to the correct address.

    Not sure what it is you did. If you have your contacts saved in iCloud (you can check them by signing into your Apple/iCloud account at iCloud.com - check the Contacts there), then changing your Apple ID will have no effect on your iCloud content. Also, when you Sign Out of the iCloud account on your device, you are given the option to keep the Contacts on that device. If you select "Keep", then when you sign back on with the updated Apple/iCloud ID, it will ask you if you want to merge the contacts on your device with your iCloud account. If you select "Merge", then it merges them.
    Also, what the instructions above are having you do is change the Apple ID that the iCloud account is linked to. It is the same Apple account, you are just changing the ID itself. The iCloud account associated with that ID is not changing or being affected in any way. If you created a new Apple ID, then that is the problem. A new ID would be linked to a new/different iCloud account.
    However, either way, if you keep your contacts and then merge them even if you set up a separate ID altogether (which is not what the instructions are telling you to do), your contacts would be intact.
    Cheers,

  • HT2736 Sent iTunes gift to wrong email

    I tried sending my daughter an album from iTunes but I put in the wrong email address. I sent a notice to support but it takes 48 hrs to respond. Any faster way to get it cancelled and sent to her correct account?
    Thanks

    If the email address that you sent it to doesn't exist and it hasn't been redeemed then you could try resending it to the correct account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1541

    Okay so I associate the e-mail address as the apple ID and that seems to be a wrong assumption.  I did go to my Apple ID and changes the e-mail address and the password but for the same and only Apple account I have ...
    That is good.  In that case, your one and only account has not changed, just the login credentials you use for it.  All your previous purchases will remain associated with that account, and the new login.
    In essence, an AppleID is an email, but it has two parts.  One is the login email address and password everyone traditionally thinks of as an AppleID.  But that in turn is linked to an account with Apple.  As long as you use the manage Apple ID portal to just change the email address and/or password for your exisiting AppleID, then the internal account tracks along with those changes as well.
    However, on your iOS devices, you will need to log out and then log back in with the new login credentials:
    settings -> iTunes & App Stores - tap your AppleID, and choose log out.  Then log back in with the new email address and new password.

    You said "have since setup an id with correct email, but cannot verify the first account.  I cannot delete it either. ".
    Why can't you verify it?
    Do you not receive the verification email address?

  • I put in the wrong email when creating my apple id. I changed my id on my laptop but my ipad has my old (wrong) email addrss and a password that wont let me sign in

    I just got my new I pad, entered all of my information.. after confirmingm y account I realized I had put in the wrong email address. I went on my laptop to change my apple id address, then went to my ipad to purchase an app and it still had my old(incrrect) email address. I typed in the password anyway and it would not let me sign in. I only gave it one password so I don't know why it is saying my password is incorrect. Anywho, THis ipad is a pain in the ***. NEver had a mac before and already its a pain in the ***. I have read a couple of threads that are not really helpful. I read one thread on this site that showed a lady with my similiar issue and she did not get the answer she was looking for. Can some one help me so I can change the apple I.D. on my ipad. The apple I.D. on my computer lets me sign in but not on my ipad; go figure. Good job apple. please help.

    i just opened my ipad, started my apple account/I.D. and realized I put the wrong e mail. I was having trouble correcting my I.D on the Ipad so I went to my laptop and make the proper changes/slash e mail address I wanted for my apple ID. I got back to my ipad and try to download an app I can't because I have to sign in my apple account and I can't because it still has the irrelivant I.D/email address..
    So, i did what you said.. went to setting>app store> tapped on my e mail.. it asked me to sign in (with my invalid emails address showing). I signed in with the password I had created. It said "incorrect".. I went to reset password. I reset password, tried to sign in and it says again "unvalid password".. this is getting irritating.  I have been asking and no one knows what to do.

  • I accidentally created an iCloud account using the wrong email address for my username - I already have an iCloud account with a different email address username. Is there any way I can merge these accounts?

    I just upgraded my MacBook from OS X 10.6.8 to Mountain Lion so that I could stream from my other devices (iPhone and iPad) to my MacBook.  After making it through the upgrade process, I realized that I used the wrong email address for my iCloud username when starting up on the MacBook.  My iPhone, iPad, and iTunes are under my Hotmail email address and I accidently used my Gmail email address for the MacBook.  Is there any way I can merge these two icloud accounts together? I tried changing my account information to add the other email address, but wasn't allowed because another account was using the name (duh).  If I can't merge them, how could I change the MacBook from the Gmail address to the Hotmail address so that all my devices are on the same icloud account?  It'd be nice if I could keep the free 5GB of storage that comes with my purchase of the software, but I'd rather lose the storage than not be able to stream.

    To change accounts on your Mac, go to System Preferences, sign out of the current account, then sign into the new account.  When you sign out of the current account it will delete synced data from your Mac.  Assuming your data (such as contacts, calendars, etc.) is in the other iCloud account, it will be synced to your Mac when you sign into this account.

  • I installed Mountain Lion so that I could sync my notes with my iPhone that already syncs notes with a specific email address I use for school, but during the install it automatically set up Notes to sync w the wrong email addy. How can I fix it?

    I installed Mountain Lion so that I could sync my notes with my iPhone that already syncs notes with a specific email address I use for school, but during the install it automatically set up Notes to sync w the wrong email addy. It looked in Mail, which had 5 email accounts set up in it, and for some reason picked the only one that I no longer use because it is for a school that I no longer attend. How can I fix it so that it syncs with the correct email account for notes and calendar? There don't seem to be any settings available other than to check if you want to use the basic features. It also said during the set up that it was setting up 'find my mac' but if I look on the iCloud website there is nothing showing there for finding my mac.
    At this point I feel like I wasted my money paying for this supposed upgrade. I got nothing for it but frustration. It even automatically set my security settings to allow only downloads from the Mac store so the first time I went to download something I had to stop what I was doing and go correct settings first. I feel like there should be a security setting to block downloads from the Mac store so I don't accidentally end up clicking the wrong thing and being charged.

    iCloud isn't syncing them on your phone.  You simply added the email account to your phone and enabled calendar and notes syncing with the email provider, and the calendar and notes appear in the calendar and notes apps on your phone.  You can do this with Gmail, Yahoo and other IMAP account.  iCloud email is just another IMAP account, but syncs notes with Apple's iCloud server just as Gmail syncs notes and calendars with Google's server.
    iCloud didnt' set up a non-iCloud account on your Mac.  When you check Mail in System Preferences>iCloud, it only creates an iCloud email account.  You can also add other email accounts to your Mac by going to System Preferences>Mail,Contacts,Calendars and clicking on the "+" sign on the bottom of the left sidebar.  If you added these other email accounts to your Mac before you upgraded to Mountain Lion, these were simply maintained on your Mac after you upgraded.
