Does anyone know how I can change my email address?

NYC Susan · ‎03-13-2010

Now that I've seen the new version, I'm very uncomfortable having my email address here. I chose not to have it made public, but I still want to eliminate it and use another one.

Can anyone help with this? (And where are we supposed to go to ask questions? Are we just supposed to be relying on each other? I'm pretty tech-savvy, but this is a mess.)

@NYC Susan,

You can edit your email address in your Account settings.

At the top of each page you'll see "Welcome [Guest or Your Name]" and if you click on that you'll see a drop-down menu with "My Account."

I would like to know the same information, feeling the same way about it as you. So far I haven't found a way to do it.

Hi dooBdoo,

Thanks for your help. The way I understand it is that now we can have two email addresses - one for ordering and one for the forums? Would changing our account settings only change our email for ordering?.

Hi, @cotton4me! Good question, and I don't know the answer. I looked around and so far don't see where we can add a second address specific to the Community. Maybe someone else has found the secret to this!

Thanks, but I don't see "Welcome". I just see my name, and the drop-down menu doesn't have "My Account". One of the options is "My Settings", but there's nothing there to change an email address.

I have logged out and logged in, refreshed the page numerous times, and I see nothing anywhere that says "Welcome" or "My Account".

eta: I did some more searching, and the only place I see "My Account" is for QVC orders, not the Community, which has always been separate, at least for me. I don't see "Welcome" anywhere, other than when I first came here earlier today and it said "Welcome Guest". Once I signed in, there has been no more "Welcome".
