Mail program with yahoo account. Comcast as my internet provider. Can't send mail.

I use the Mail program with my yahoo account on Mac OSX. I have Comcast as my internet provider. Can't seem to send mail from the Mail program. Comcast can't figure it out. Any ideas??
Does anyone know the actual settings I should have in Mail Preferneces and what the incoming and outgoing ports should be?
Thanks.

Are you using Mail.app, or a browser?
PS. Yahho has frequent problems, do you have any other eMail addies?

I am having problems attaching files to my email using the latest Firefox 13.0.1, Comcast is my internet provider, but I did not have problem with Safari.

Why am I having problems attaching files to my email using Firefox 13.0.1.?
I am using a MAC, OS 10.6.8, and have Comcast as my internet provider. I noticed after I upgraded to Firefox 13.0.1 that I am having problems attaching files to my email. I do not experience the same problem with Safari, but I prefer to use Firefox, as all of my bookmarks and passwords are saved there. I just like the way Firefox works better than Safari.
I am a free-lance graphic designer and rely on my internet connection to my customers. I need this resolved ASAP!

Could you start by resetting the zoom level on the page? To do that, you can either:
* Press Ctrl+0 (that's a zero) on the keyboard
* View menu > Zoom > Reset
You also can use zoom to increase/decrease the size from there. This article describes the various mouse, keyboard, and menu methods: [[Font size and zoom - increase the size of web pages]].
Any luck?

I had this problem. I held down the power switch to power down completely. Takes a few seconds. Then use the power switch to turn on. Might take a couple goes.

Can't sync contacts with yahoo account (and I do have internet connection!)

When I sync my iPhone 4 with my computer, it says it can't sync with my Yahoo account (as it has been for the past year) because I don't have an internet connection. I have wireless interent connection and I've checked everything - it's hooked up and I've tried to close out programs, restart etc. I have the latest iTunes version on my computer. Thank you for your help in advance...

OK, sounds like you are using Yahoo to store your contacts. If you're having a problem with this, it is highly likely it is on Yahoo's end since they often have server issues, but two things you can try:
If you're currently on wi-fi, turn that off and see if you can access your contacts via 3G.
Try deleting the Yahoo account off your iPhone and re-create it.
Last week my Yahoo account was acting buggy and didn't get resolved until I did both (turned off wi-fi, then deleted and re-created the account over 3G).

Itunes could not sync with yahoo address book because an internet connectio

Hello Windows users,
My original iPhone has been unable to sync contacts to my yahoo account. This was not always the case, for many months all was well with syncing.
In searching for a resolution to this I found http://www.thisllwork.com/2008/05/itunesyahoosy.html
This solution did not work for me. I've also tried to delete the Yahoo! mail account on the phone, sync then add the same account back to the phone, sync again. I still get the internet connection error.
What has worked is syncing to my Outlook, then switching the sync menu back to Yahoo! and clicking 'sync' once more. Then Voila! I have synced my contacts to yahoo! online. **This works only once!** without removing the iphone from the dock, or closing iTunes I click 'sync' again and get the error message again.
I know many other Win XP users have this issue, I've read the posts, and noticed they get archived without resolution. Would Apple like to help? I'm considering buying a Macbook. +*hint hint *Wink *Wink+

TS3276 When I sign on to Comcast Xfinity, my Internet provider through Safari, I can sign into my Email, but my inbox will not boot up. What is the problem?

My Internet provider is Comcast Xfinity. When I open Safari it goes to my Xfinity homepage. I can sign into my email OK, but when I attempto to access my Email Inbox, nothing happens. The connections just spins indefinitly. what is wrong? I am operating Maverick OS X 10.9 .2

Might be a cookies and cache issue ...
From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab.
Click: Remove All Website Data
Now empty the cache.
Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following:
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari. Login to your Comcast account.
In case you are not aware, you can avoid having to use Safari to access your Comast email account by setting up your account via Mac Mail.

Mail with Yahoo account doesn't exit when shutdown or logout

Hi,
I'm using OS X Mail with a Yahoo Imap Account (setup by Mail itself) on a new MB Air.
Reading, writing Mail works fine, but: when logging out or restarting the system, the mail program (in background, hidden display) does not quit. After some seconds I get a message from the system saying that I have to quit Mail (translated from german) manually for the system to restart.
This behavior does not occur always, but sporadically (each 3rd or 5th time).
If I display the 'Activity' window of Mail in this cases, I can see that there are 2 jobs waiting forever: 'empty the trash' and 'logoff imap server' (translated again). One of them (or both?) seems to be a problem for the Mail application causing the endless waiting.
All other Mail acounts (iCloud, Google) do not have this problem, only Yahoo. The Problem can also be reproduced on two other Macs with fresh created Yahoo Email acounts.
Sorry for my bad english. I hope someone has a solution/hint for my problem.
Greets from Germany,
Peter

Mail app not working with Yahoo account

I am using an iPhone 6 plus on iOS 8.1 and suddenly my Yahoo email account will not populate to my Mail app. I have deleted and re-added the account and also re-booted the phone with no luck. I get the spinning wheel up by my Wi-Fi signal that suggests it's attempting to do something, but the bottom of the Inbox only says "Updated Yesterday." Has anyone else experienced this or can someone, especially an Apple employee, tell me how to fix this?

There is no Apple in this user to user technical forum, if you want an Apple employee you would need to take your phone to the Apple store.
What happens when you switch to using cellular data? Does your email update?
FYI - Yahoo email account is notoriously bad, you can try their app.

Partial download mail with Yahoo account

Hi.
I have Mail 3.6 on Mac os 10.5.8 and 2 account: Gmail and Yahoo. Gmail works fine but Yahoo has downloaded only mail until 25/09/2008.
I deleted mail account in Mail e re-created but problem didn't resolve.
I have Powerbook G4 with Mac os 10.4.11 and Mail 2.6 works fine with both and I setup that mail on server doesn't delete.
Have you any suggestions?
thanks

I came across your post when trying to sort out the same problem - which I have now resolved. My account stopped downloading from yahoo server post 21 Aug 09. I moved the contents of the inbox to a temp folder and then removed and re-added my account. The server said there were 916 messages but only downloaded approx 80% up to 21 Aug 09. I then double clicked on the inbox and selected "Account Info" which listed all 916 on the server. At the top of the list there were 10 messages with "Sender unknown" and with received "Today". I removed them from the server and Mail dowloaded the missing e-mails. I hope this helps.
