How can I change the name that is displayed on emails that I send from my Apple Mail account?
I'm not talking about changing my email address. I'm talking about the name that appears greyed out in the Mail preferences "Full Name" field.
I have already changed the name in my icloud account in the "Manage My Apple ID," yet, there is no change.
Thanks in advance.
Figured this one out. So in case anyone else is wondering, this is the solution:
In Mail, go to preferences. Select the account in question. Select the Account Information tab. Click the Alias popup, and select Custom. Now the Full Name field should no longer be greyed out, and you should be able to edit it.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!! I have been trying to figure this out for so long! It worked beautifully!
I have no idea what you mean when you say "select alias pop-up"? thank you
Been driving me crazy the number of people who deleted my emails because they just said Apple. many thanks
Did you figure this out? This discussion helped me also.
In settings open mail scroll to bottom edit your signat
Thank you! Eric! This was the most straightforward answer I got! It sorted out my problem! 🙂
