BB bold calendar sync with Yahoo mail July 2011- problem remains unresolved for months

Having a problem ,as are many other bb users with sync calendar entries.  Syncs contacts/ media but loses connection when sync dates.
I have just started working from home.. this is a huge problem to me and as far as I can see from other forums is a Yahoo software problem which remains unresolved both by bb and yahoo for a number of months.
Problem is bb are going to start losing customers inc myself. If solution is not imminent  I am going to switch to iphone when my contract comes up at the end of the summer.
 ( I would prefer to stay with bb but if they are unable to provide customer support to resolve these issue it leaves me no choice)
P.S I have tried every fix advised with no positive result

Hey usannie,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
If you switched to Yahoo! Beta the synchronization is not currently supported.

  • Can't get Palm Desktop app to react after syncing with Yahoo mail calendar info

    Attempted to move calendar from Yahoo mail page to Palm Desktop in my Macbook--
    Yahoo page says "don't use Intellisync" --thre is a new program called Autosync--but it turns out it doesn't work for Macs --clearly, many instructions on Yahoo paged do not apply to Macs--
    find this is a common problem on many sites--assumption that all are PC folks.
    Imagine how things will go if Microsoft actually buys Yahoo!
    Anyway--Created Calendar as a CV file and imported to Palm Desktop--
    now cannot get program to run correctly--it appears all of the calendar info was imported to calendar day on which I imported it--so there is a huge amount of info being processed whenever I attempt to interact with the app.--the dreaded beachball appears and spins endlessly--
    Have re-installed Palm app. (4.2.1) but problem seems to be imbedded, and re-occurs.
    Is there any solution except to dump the entire app. from my hard drive, lose my archive et. al.
    and re-synch from my Tungsten E2???
    Post relates to: Tungsten E2

    Did away with it in 10.8. Sync via application Notes now.

  • Pre email push not syncing with Yahoo Mail or google cal after HP shut down

    HI.  I have a Palm Pre, and while I knew services going through Palm would be dead after the shut down, I assumed anything that was a direct email push through my cell phone carrier or WIFI would be fine.
    I have however suddenly lost email sync with my Yahoo account, google calendar sync (thought the gmail sync works) and Outlook calendar sync through Chapura sync manager.
    Is this a coincidence?  Is there something I can do to fix this?  It makes no sense that services that have nothing to do with Palm should cease to work!
    Thanks!

    I have set up the account using the iPhone's preset service - which I think means it's an exchange account.
    This means the account was created as an IMAP account with Push access for received messages.
    Surely I'm not supposed to close Mail down in order to receive push notifications? And if so, what does that means for Facebook, eBay etc?
    No you are not. With an account that supports Push access for received messages with Push access enabled for the account with the account settings on the iPhone, when a new message is received at the incoming mail server the incoming mail server "pushes" the message out automatically without having to check the account for new messages - automatically or manually, which is called fetch.
    Removing the Mail app from the fast app switching or recently used apps bar does not quit the app. It removes the app from the fast app switching or recently used apps bar only. The iPhone has supported multitasking since day one with included apps. Removing the Mail app, the Messages app, and the Phone app from the fast app switching/recently used app bar does not quit these apps. These apps are always running in the background so to speak in a suspended or frozen state.
    Yahoo has had on and off again problems with this since day one 3&1/2 years ago.

  • IPhone Calendar Syncing with Yahoo

    Hello.  I can't get my iPhone calendar to sync with my Yahoo calendar.  HELP!  I can input information into Yahoo and it shows up on my phone. But if I put a date into my iPhone, it does not show up on my Yahoo calendar.  Any ideas?  Thank you!

    The odd thing is that my yahoo email account syncs just fine although that same account's calendar won't sync.

  • Dropbox attachment sync with yahoo mail works in Chrome but not firefox.

    In the beginning on April 2013, Yahoo mail added the feature of attaching a files straight from dropbox. This feature works fine when I select it in Google Chrome. When I select the option in Firefox it opens up the little window and has the loading wheel. It just stays at that stage forever. Where as in Chrome the dropbox window opens in 2 seconds. Is there as setting I need to change or and add on that I need to get? What's the problem?

    hello, does it wkor when you launch firefox in safe mode for testing purposes once?

  • Events made on iPad calendar(through yahoo account) don't sync with yahoo calendar

    Events made on iPad calendar (through my yahoo account) don't sync with yahoo calendar on the Web. I'm on latest iOS both on iPad and iPhone4. Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Raymondo1,
    Glad this helpped! 
    I am a PC user so cannot help with your Mac interfaces.  I can sync (crudely) my Windows 7 Address book with iTunes.  But, I cannot sync my Windows Mail or Calendar with iTunes (unless I have Microsoft Exchange).
    Microsoft Exchange is not available to me.  This is why I use the iPod to sync with to Yahoo for email and Calendar.
    The best I can tell, iTunes does NOT support an interface with Yahoo.
    Have a nice day.

  • Selective sync process with Yahoo mail contacts in importing them to Windows 8x phone?

    "Syncing" (importing) Yahoo mail messages and contacts appears simple. Setting > email etc, select Yahoo and it creates a Yahoo tile and imports individual contacts into People Hub. Except that out some 120 contacts I have in my online Yahoo account only some 50 were brought over. I tried exporting a Microsoft Outlook CSV file to Outlook.com and the same thing happens. A number of such contacts are simple, just a name (letters, numbers, @ sign only) and an email address but they did not make it.
    Oh sorry, I bought a new Windows Phone 8x 4G LTE unit that is fantastic....except for this problem.
    Anyone has a suggestion how I could bring over the other contacts (so that I do not have to do it manually, one by one, on the phone)?
    Thank you.

    Found a solution (there may be others): since I read that a problem may be with strange characters/info in my Yahoo Mail contacts, I extrapolated a Microsoft Outlook CSV file from the Yahoo account. Brought the file into a spread sheet and erase all the info except for the individual names and email addresses. Then save the file in the same format. Opened my Outlook.com account, went to People, then 'import from file' and designated this CSV file and it came over without a hitch.
    I hope this is of help to others facing this problem. Best,

  • Organiser sync with Yahoo calendar/task list/memo pad/ addressbook

    Hi,
    I have recently bought a Blackberry Curve 8520.
    My problem is connecting to yahoo  calendar/task list/memo pad/ addressbook
    Each time I try to syncronise I get back the message "connection to the yahoo server was lost"
    I am using the lastest version of the yahoo and blackberry software. I am sure I am not the only user trying to sync PCand Blackberry informantion!!
    Help to resolve this issue would be much appreciated.
    Many thanks DBF

    Someone suggested that I switch to syncing to/with Google calendar ... but I don't know how to do that since it's not in the list of options that come up when I say I want to configure sync settings.  Do you know how to do that?
    I received a cryptic email response from Yahoo saying they no longer support syncing with Yahoo calendar ... but implying that they may still be working on it and the option may start working again if they get a solution.  I responded that I'd like to know if they fix the problem instead of having to try every few days, but got no response to that request.
    The iPhone 5 is supposed to come out next month.  Maybe it's time to switch brands of smartphones.

  • Default Mail app not working with yahoo mail. Won't update.

    Default Maill app not working with Yahoo Mail.
    It stopped working the other day. I tried everything but it wouldn't update new mail. The yahoo account itself is fine because I can see new mail on Yahoo or a yahoo app.
    I tried deleting the account and putting it back on, but now it has 0 mail in any part of it. Nothing has synced.
    What do I do?
    iPad 2 latest OS.

    A lot of people have been unable to access Yahoo e-mail on their iPhones or iPads. My wife’s iPad was not downloading Yahoo mail, although her iPhone was. Both used IOS 8.2. We tried deleting the account several times and troubleshooting all of the other settings. The problem appears to have been that allowing the IOS to automatically create the account on the iPad resulted in the wrong settings for the incoming server. The following procedure, pieced together from two websites, fixed the problem for us. So far, so good.

    Tap Add Account.
    Tap Other.
    Tap Add Mail Account.
    Complete the Name, Address (email address), Password and Description fields.
    Click Next.
    Ensure IMAP is selected.

    Port: 993
    Requires SSL: Yes
    Hostname is mail.yahoo.com.

    Enter the following outgoing mail server information:
    Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - Requires SSL
    Server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
    Port: 465 or 587
    Requires SSL: Yes
    Requires authentication: Yes
    Username is your full email address
    Password is the same password used to access webmail. It may have been entered for you.
    Tap Next.
    The iPhone will establish an SSL connection to your IMAP and SMTP servers.
    That’s all!

  • Calendar schedule blank. All appts disappeared from 3g iphone calendar synced to yahoo. After Yahoo corrected error message on their website and I re-synced my iphone, calendar reappears but will not allow edit from iphone. I can't find settings to change

    Calendar schedule blank. All appts disappeared from 3g iphone calendar synced to yahoo. After Yahoo corrected error message on their website and I re-synced my iphone, calendar reappears but will not allow edit from iphone. I can't find settings within Yahoo or within my iphone to alter editing options.
    How can I get access to edit and delete the Yahoo calendar from my iphone? I never schedule anything from the Yahoo webpage. All my appointments and reminders are scheduled from the iphone.
    iOS 4.2.1 (8C148a)

    My Yahoo email account worked just fine on my iPhone 4S  for the last 2 months. Then this morning I started receiving the apple.imap.mail,yahoo error.  I tried all of the steps above in solving the yahoo email issue including numerous hard re-sets and deletions of my yahoo account settings without any success. So I gave up trying to use the default Yahoo setup option.  I added my Yahoo account back as an "other" type email account and then had the option to choose to set it up as a "POP" account instead of an IMAP type. I then just used the server settings recommended from Yahoo Help for a Yahoo Plus Email POP (or just google yahoo plus email pop settings). This works and I am back in business.
    I'm not sure if this will work for yahoo mail classic accounts.
    Frustrating that this issue seems to have been going on for quite awhile and Apple still as not made any acknowledgement of this issue or proposed a fix for those of us that can not resolve the issue with a reset.

  • Crash in YahooSync when trying syncing with Yahoo Address Book

    My iPhone (fw 1.1.1) works fine. I tried to syn with my contacts on the Yahoo address book. When I click on "syn contacts with Yahoo! Address Book" in iTunes (latest vesion 7.4.3.1) it pops up the login dialog.
    Then it crashes (login on the website works fine).
    iTunes says: "unknown error (6)".
    Any idea how to solve this?!

    While researching I found the following doc on Apple called
    "iPhone: Exception error when syncing with Yahoo! Address Book" at http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305851
    Currently I just have telephone numbers in my contacts, no e-mail addresses. So that can't be the problem. I also replaced special characters like ö, ä and so on.
    When I retried now I got the same error

  • Having issues with Yahoo mail on ios4 on a 3GS

    Is anyone else experiencing issues with Yahoo mail on their 3GS after the upgrade to ios4?? Keep getting an imap server error, but gmail works fine.

    Same problem. I have two Yahoo! Mail accounts. One stopped sending mail, while the other was fine. (Both could receive, however.) To solve that, I deleted the problematic account from the phone and reinstalled it. It worked... until I synced by iPhone with iTunes. Now both Yahoo! Mail accounts will not work, and deleting them and reinstalling them does nothing.
    Apple had better fix this. (Or I'll whine louder.)
