Unsubscribe from commercial email from Apple

Well until you figure it out, or even if you never figure it out, if there's something unique in the mail header (from address?) you could create a rule (filter) to treat it as spam.

You are also still under warrantee, so call applecare and try seeing if they can do anything about it.

Another approach...

You should have a signed up for a apple id. If so you can log in to manage the account associated with that apple id and change the "language and contact preferences", "Communication from Apple" checkboxes to not send email (and/..or mail).

1. Go to, https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/

2. Click "Manage your account".

3. Select "Language and Contact Preferences" and in the "Communication from Apple" section check/uncheck the appropriate checkboxes.

I have this same problem. I have been systematically unsubscribing for several months now and nothing has changed. This is in violation of the CAN-SPAM act of 2003

<Edited by Host>

I have also been unsubscribing continuously for the last 6 months and it still arrives. It goes directly to spam though. Very upset with apple over this!

yup, same thing here. constant spamming even though i keep unsubscribing. now all apple stuff goes straight to the spam filter as i got tired of the stupid routine of unsubscribing, which doesn't work whatsoever.

for everyone:

this is the link that stopped it for me - not sure if anyone has tried it this way, but thought it worth posting (I got this from Apple support):

http://mynews.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/Subscriptions.woa?locale=en_us&pagena me=unsubscribeweb

FWIW, when you first set up your Mac and as you're going through the various pages, the option to subscribe is checked by default and I immediately uncheck it (this might help someone if they know about it before setting it up).

i've filled this out so many times and the spam still didn't stop. it's still coming 1 and 1/2 years later but is now going into the spam filter.

Sorry to hear that didn't work; unfortunately I have no other suggestions except to possibly ask Apple if/when you take your machine to a store or call support for a problem.

Hi,

I used to keep many of the emails from Apple.

I checked some I still have from 2011 and the address is as you say.

I realised though that the list, if you can call it that, or at least the two options are not the only items that I get emails about.

The oones with this link show the follwoing Headers

Edited at this point as it contains a reference number as part of the Unsubscribe Address

The page looks like this if you follow the link:-

I have just change the Email but on retuning to grab the page in a pic I notice it has not changed.

I get separate emails from the UK iTunes store

Short info on their header

iTunes <itunes_uk@new.itunes.com>

New on iTunes: Yellow Submarine, Sonic the Hedgehog 4 Episode II, Snow White and The Huntsman and More

To: Ralph Johns <xxxxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxx>

Return-Path: <it_uk_ndt_bounces@new.itunes.com>

Now I would have said the two email sources were different (they actually come to two different emails I have)

However the first pic says the iTunes bit is about New on iTunes

And the second Header Quote says @new.iTunes.com (which in my book seems to be the same thing)

Now the email address are different but they are my Original Apple ID that I login here with and the linked to that iCloud email address which to all intents and purposes are the same "Apple ID" (I can in fact login in here and iTunes and iCloud with either email name and I will see the Original Apple ID account info).

I seem to be no nearer in being able to suggest a "Fix" and can now relate to the original issue.

I will keep an eye on the email listed on the Subscription changes and see if the "new" one I put in appears (or shows in new emails.). Obviously that might take the stated ten days.

New Info.

Today (28th May) - the day after I changed the email - I got a new email from Apple about the iPhone 4GS focusing on SIRI.

It came to the new email.

This does raise the option of listing an email that you don't use (i.e. I once set up my iChat AIM Screen Name as an email account as well but I don't have it set up in Mail so I don't see what gets sent there).
