Att email ios7

Since upgrading, I can't send email from one of my two att.net accounts.  The one that works has an outgoing server of "Yahoo! SMPT Server" and the one that doesn't says "smpt.att.yahoo.com"   It doesn't give me the option of the first server.  Help!  This is a work account that I desperately need to get going on my phone!  BTW, it works fine on Outlook (on the computer) and webmail of course.  Just really hate to have to use a browser to forward any email!

I got the phone from eBay .. Got it unlocked with my old att account and  att SIM card is from a friend but it's a deactivated SIM card that I've left in my phone while restoring .. Doesn't change the outcome if I use a activated att SIM card does that allow my phone to get unlocked .

  • Icloud thinks my att email is still my Apple ID. I changed to a gmail address, which Apple accepts, but Icloud doesn't.

    I changed my Apple ID from aYahoo- ATT email to a gmail. Changed the password.
    My Iphone5 still asks me to sign in to the old ATT email for everything. Itunes, Icloud. Yet Apple knows the gmail address because that is where it sends me information about the password changes I was making.
    I can't update APPs. When I hit "Update" for an APP it asks me to put the Apple ID password for the old ATT email (which I can't remember anyhow since I changed it so many times trying to switch to gmail) I keep getting pop-ups to put my password for the ATT email to enter Itunes store. I guess that is where updates take place?
    I thought maybe not having the latest operating system was the problem so I installed that today (OIS 8.1.2 I think). That didn't help.
    In a forum I saw a suggestion to delete the old email account. How do you do that? In "Mailboxes" I unchecked the box next to the Yahoo/Att account but that didn't help.
    And while I am complaining...... the ON button (on top of the Iphone5) is balky. Sometimes takes 6 tries before the screen shuts down.
    AND....this morning , while watching a video online, 2/3 of the screen went blank and flashed on and off repeatedly. Froze in this flashing mode. Took about 15 minutes before I could even get it to shut down. I thought all was lost .

    You need to ask Apple for assistance with getting back into your old ID. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to resolve this issue through the Account Security team, fill out and submit this form.

  • ATT email in updated form does not open on Firefox - how can I return to classic or make the new version compatible with Firefox?

    Since I updated to the latest version of ATT email from the classic email version, I can't get Firefox to open the mail. And I can't find a link to go back to classic. I need to know if there is a change that I need to make in my Firefox settings to make it compatible or how to return to classic.

    The change between Firefox 3.6.* and Firefox 4 is how location bar search works. In Firefox 3.6 it uses Google "Browse by name" search. With the browse by name search, it performs a Google search and if there is a clear match it will take you to the site, otherwise it shows the Google search result. With Firefox 4 it just performs a Google search if you type something which is not recognised as a URL.
    To get the Firefox 3.6 behaviour on Firefox 4 you need to change a hidden preference.
    # Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
    # Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
    # Locate the preference '''keyword.URL''', double-click on it and change its value to the link shown below

    If you prefer, you can also do this by installing the Browse by Name extension - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/browse-by-name

  • How do I set up Mail for ATT email?  It was previously working and does not work now.

    I had my ATT email working.  It will only let me set it up as an IMAP account via Yahoo, however the ATT web site says that I should be setting it up as a POP3.  Either way it's a no go.  Has anyone had an ATT IMAP email account that worked and all of a sudden decided not to work?

    I see dropdown menus for SMTP SSL and IMAP/POP SSL. I have them both set as "Require"
    Do not to this if your server is handling incoming mail from outside your network.
    Few remote mail servers will use SSL, so if your server requires SSL then you will not be able to receive mail from outside your domain.
    'Use', on the other hand, advertises the fact your server supports SSL, so clients and remote servers can use if if they like, but this still allows other mail in.
    What should "Authentication" be - "Login" or "Plain"
    Do not use Plain unless you absolutely trust all your clients (i.e. they're all on a LAN or all using SSL). Plain sends an unencrypted password over the wire, which is susceptible to sniffing.
    what will the client be using?
    Whatever you set it to.
    The client complains about a correct root certificate not being installed).
    Are you using a self-signed certificate? if so, you're going to get that unless you do a lot of extra work. Getting a real certificate from a trusted authority should resolve this.
    As for the slow connections, the use of SSL shouldn't significantly impact connection or delivery/transfer times, so something else is amiss.

  • Got a new iPhone 5 and cannot set up att email account on it. How to fix?

    Hello! I had to get a new iphone 5 because when I updated my other iphone 5 to ios 7, the photos were blurry and nothing would fix it. Now that I have another iphone 5, I keep getting message "Cannot get mail: The user name or password for imap.mail.yahoo.com is incorrect." I have tried numerous times to put in my user name and password, which is correct, and the same messge keeps popping up. I did not have this problem on previous phones when setting up my att email account. Suggestions? Thanks!

    Yahoo mail is famous for its down time. There have been a lot of problems with them in the last couple of weeks, and I would imagine that is what the problem is, not the phone.

  • Yahoo/att email from my ipad2 are deleted from the server view.

    When reading my yahoo/att email from my ipad2 they are deleted from the server view. Is there any way to keep this from occuring? I have my home pc set to not delete upon reading to allow manual retention as needed.

    If you recently added back your email account it was most likely set up as an IMAP account - renowned for the seamless sync across your device - yes I am being a little sarcastic there - at the technology not at you
    The oft recommended way to "force" the email to be POP is to add your email address in there incorrectly - misspelling works fine - and then it asks whether you want a POP or IMAP account
    Try that - delete the account - you will not lose your emails in there
    Then re add and follow the steps I recommended and see if that solves your issue

    Hello bluechalk,
    I'd recommend restarting your iPhone. If you're still unable to proceed, I would recommend resetting the device.

  • Help with ATT email setup.  Was working fantastic but can no longer send or receive email.

    I have been having problems with sending and receiving emails on both my macbook and my Ipad using my att.net email for over a month.  I didn't change any of the original settings when that happened but after trying to fix it after scouring the internet for help I have my settings like this on my Ipad.  Actually I have two separate ones trying to get either to work.
    First one:  Yahoo!
    Outgoing mail server - SMTP   Yahoo!SMPT Server
    under advanced Primary serve - Yahoo! SMTP Server On
    I can't find anyplace else to change the settings.
    If I am missing a place to go, please explain exactly how I find it. 
    Second one:"my user name"@att.net
    Imap Account info
    Host Name Inbound.att.net
    Username:  "[email protected]"
    Passsword ***********
    Outgoing mail server
    SMTP outbound.att.net
    under the advanced
    Use SSL on
    Autentification PW
    IMAP Path Prefix /
    Server Port 993
    I think it is imap although I have used pop, also.    The error message i get is:
    SMPT:"email address"@[email protected] is not correct. 
    I don't know where it is drawing that from.  I'm willing to eliminate all ATT associated accounds on my ipad and begin again if someone can help me get it set up correctly.  I have all these mac products so i can seemlessly work on all my devices.  Right now, I'm not a happy camper.
    I am having similar problems with my MacBook Pro so if there is someone outthere that is using ATT as their email address and using it successful on their Apple devices,  I would sure appreciate any help I can get.  BTW, ATT help line is useless on this. 
    Thank you!

    Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions ...
    I don't know if this is a corrupted preference file or not, but it sure can't hurt to try this.
    If Mail is open, Quit Mail.
    /Users/YourName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
    Drag that .plist file to the Desktop. Launch Mail and see if you can send or receive e-mail. If you can, that .plist file is corrupted. Drag it to the trash, empty the trash and reboot. Your Mac will create a new preference file for you the next time you launch Mail.
    Also... run Disk Utility and Repair Disk Permissions. Disk Utility is in your Applications/Utilities folder. Launch DU, select MacintoshHD 10.x.x in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab, click Repair Disk Permissions. Quit DU when it's finished and reboot.
