Can I keep my AT&T & Yahoo email addresses after we go back to Time Warner?

When we found that we could be paying $76.95 LESS per month for MORE, better service with TWC, we decided to swtich back to TWC. (This would never have happened if AT&T wouldn't have sent us a bill asking for $54 more starting this month without even warning us! But that's what they did and it prompted me to call TWC to find out what they could offer. And their best bundle is $76.95 cheaper than AT&T's best bundle, so we switched. It wasn't an easy decision to make because we've had AT&T phone service for 45 years and AT&T Internet for 17 years! We've only had uVerse for 2 years, but even though it's not as good as cable, not as convenient and doesn't have all the cool perks that TWC has, we were going to sign up for another 2 years. Until, like I said, we got the last bill. We don't appreciate being treated this way after paying for the service all this time, never being late, not once, in fact they just take the money out of our checking account each month so it's never late! But, after having all my email addresses with worldnet.att.net, att.net, sbcglobal.net and yahoo, for 17 years, I hate the idea of giving up my email addresses! EVERYONE I know, family & friends, and all the companies and websites I've signed up with know me as my name @ att.net.So, I wonder if I'll be able to access my email accounts after the switch? Or will AT&T just close those accounts? I sure hope there's someone out there that knows the answer to this question will see this and send an answer very soon because I've been fretting about this ever since we made the call to TWC. In fact this is the only reason why we didn't call to switch as soon as our contract was up. (BTW - all the better services we'll have with TWC will be a nice change especially since we don't have to sign a contract! We can drop any service or add any service at any time without paying a penalty!)

The short answer is, yes, you can keep your AT&T associated e-mail addresses. They have to be modified in some way, but how to do that is pretty easy to find on their support web page.

The company with the defacto worst customer service in any industry, hooking up with a company that has so many unsuspecting inocent customers.     I really feel for them.
Email addresses don't have to be modified after cancelling service, nothing on email support page about that topic.

  • Can't set up mail with yahoo email address..

    I apologize if this has already been asked, but in setting up Mail, i keep getting an error while trying to set up my yahoo account. Will the mail program work with web based email? if this has been asked before, please direct me.
    Thanks!

    Hi Ryan
    Mail will not work with Yahoo's free email service, but will work if you have the paid Yahoo service. This is because the free service does not allow mail access by POP mail clients.

  • "Enter the Yahoo! password for [my yahoo email address]" keeps popping up on my Mac desktop

    A pop-up window "Enter the Yahoo! password for [my yahoo email address]" keeps popping up on my Mac desktop (Leopard OS) every few hours. This has happened for the past year and only happens on my MacPro desktop, never on other laptops/computer. Does anyone have solution please ?

    Ok !! I think I finally found the trouble of this !! I went crazy that every 5 seconds I had to fill in my password for my yahoo account om Apple Mail. My computer is in another language so I'll try to translate as good as possible the buttons and so ..
    So these are the steps required:
    You need to give computer access to the password of Yahoo.com. How to do so ?
    You go to the application "Key Chain" that is included in your MacBook Pro.
    Then you go to the first tab that should say something with "Login/Session" and you should see all your saved passwords.
    Scroll down to the saved password of  "Yahoo: your-username @ ...
    Click on it, you should see a window opening
    Go to the tab "Access Control"
    Then click on "Allow all applications to connect .. ", NOT the option "Ask every time for allowance" or you can also just add the program "MAIL" with the "+" icon !!
    There you go, now you should not have to worry again !!!!!!
    Hope it helps people !!!

  • Can I use Yahoo email address in Mail?

    Hi,
    Friend bought a MacBook. He's had Yahoo email address for years. Can he use it in Mail? If not - is there a free solution? He has an Airport, so no need to get high speed.
    Thanks.

    You can an email account from either your ISP (internet service provider) or from an email account provider only such as Apple (.Mac), Yahoo, etc.
    I was under the impression that one doesn't need to actually get
    high speed with an Airport - that you just need to be somewhere
    with good reception.
    Yes and no.
    I have Cable modem service at Home and I purchased an Airport Express wireless router which is connected to my cable modem. This allows me to create a wireless network at home which is password protected and encrypted. Any neighbors within range of my wireless network can see my network but are unable to connect to it (without my permission or knowledge) since I have it password protected and encrypted.
    Although your friend's MacBook may be within range of someone else's wireless network, most are password protected (or should be) and even if not protected, this doesn't give your friend or anyone else the right to connect to this dumb person's unprotected wireless network without their permission and knowledge.
    Even if your friend does so with or without permission, he will probably have problems sending messages with an email account and SMTP server not provided by the person's internet service provider with the wireless network.
    There are a number of paid and free wireless access locations at coffee shops and the like but each has different requirements for using an email account and SMTP server that is outside of their network.
    Having an Airport or wireless card does not give you free internet access unless you are within range of a free public wireless network which must be within 150 feet or so.

    My iTunes account is under my @yahoo email address and I became accustomed to my @Me email and now like the idea of the @iCloud email address that was made. My questions are....can I change my iTunes account to my @iCloud name without instead of my @yahoo name without losing my years snd years of purchases ? Can I also create an @Mac address ? ....or is my @yahoo and my @iCloud already recognized as the same by apple and my purchases would already be fine as well as restoring my devices ?

    Your purchases are permanently tied to the Apple ID (account) used to purchase them.  They can't be moved to another account and you can merge accounts.  You can start making new purchases with your iCloud ID if you want, but you will end up with two sets of purchases under two different IDs, adding further complication to your life.
    Also, your @icloud email address is an alias of your existing @me address; emails sent to either address will be routed to the same inbox.  You can decide which one you want to use as your default (as discussed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5441) but you can't separate them.

  • Can my BB curve sync to Yahoo email account?

    Hi
    as above really. Can my BB Curve sync to my Yahoo email account so that any emails are pushed to my BB? My mate reckons I have to set-up a new email using Outlook or similar. Thing is, it'll be a pain to start having o use a new accot as i've had my Yahoo email address for aslong as i can remember!
    If it can sync it, how do I do it? Have set up my @orange.blackberry.co.uk email so is it similar to that?
    Also, would it sync to the Yahoo calender within my email account?
    Cheers

    I have two options for you.  First, you can call Tesco and they should be able to do that from their end.  It's obviously still associated with your BIS account, which they can modify for you.  Alternatively, they should have a self-serve BIS site from where you can edit email accounts on your phone.  You'll need a user/pass combo to access the site but if you get that from them, you can then modify accounts on your phone by yourself.
    Let us know if that helps you.

  • Keeping BT email address after cancelling BT Broad...

    Hi,
    I have recently cancelled my BT Broadband service (due to a move abroad) but would like to continue using my BT email service (currently an address @btinternet.com, still on BT Yahoo Mail).
    This page states clearly that the email service can be retained as long as I keep using it:
    http://bt.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/13140/~/what-happens-to-my-bt-internet-email-account-...
    However, the cancellation e-mail I received from BT is also very clear about the e-mail service being lost unless I sign up for BT Premium Mail:
    FREE BT email - you'll be able to use your BT email for 30 days after 20 Aug 2014, but then we'll close the account and permanently delete your emails, contacts, calendar and notes. If you'd like to keep your BT email account, you can sign up to BT Premium Mail for just £1.60 a month (which you'll need to do before we close your account). With BT Premium Mail you can keep using your @btinternet or @btopenworld email accounts no matter who provides your broadband. Find out more at bt.com/keepmyemail
    Could one of the BT Mods please confirm that the email account will remain active and won't be deleted?
    Thanks,
    Guillem

    Hi guillem,
    I'm sorry about any confusion around the cancellation of your BT broadband. Your email will continue to work for 30 days after you've cancelled your broadband however if you wish to continue using your @btinternet.com email address after this time you will need to subscribe to the premium mail service.
    Thanks

    -If you established a rescue email address, there will be a link on the "Passwords & Security" page of id.apple.com.  Clicking the link will send the reset to your rescue email address (NOTE:  This is not the same address as your Apple ID email)
    -If there is no link on the page, then you didn't establish a rescue email address.  Contact AppleCare at 800.694.7466 (If you are in the US), and ask for account security.  You will need to answer some questions to verify your identity, AND you will need access to a computer to generate a temporary support pin.

  • Yahoo email OK after cancelling Verizon DSL?

    Will my 'Verizon Yahoo" email account still be OK after I cancel my Verizon DSL?
    I access my email at mail.yahoo.com. My email address is similar to [email protected] The banner at the top of the page says Verizon Yahoo Mail and the menu includes some Verizon items. I'm cancelling my Verizon DSL and  switching to another ISP (but keeping my Verizon phone service, for now.) What will happen to this Yahoo email account after I cancel my Verizon DSL? Will it still exist, with all my saved messages and folder intact?
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    some_user

    Based on past experiences, if your e-mail is supplied via Yahoo from Verizon, your messages and account should stay intact. However, you must note that your e-mail address will change. After your account is terminated and Verizon has finished up the account on their end, the next time you go to log into your Yahoo account, Yahoo will ask you to set up the account again.
    In essence, logging into what is the "Suspended" account should convert your account to a free Yahoo account. This policy may have changed as both Verizon and Yahoo have been changing their services around, so you may want to get clarification from Verizon support. On the safe side, connect to your mailbox via POP and download the contents of your mailbox to a local mail client, leaving e-mail on the server. Export your e-mail contacts to a file and save that, too.

  • Not getting Yahoo emails on Q5 except for a specific time span

    My Q5 started to have this issue started about 4, 5 days ago. I dont get any Yahoo emails except for an approx 5 hr time span at specific times of the day.  All other times I do not get any emails at all, not even when pressing the "refresh" icon.  
    I have deleted / rebooted/re-added the yahoo account multiple times without any improvement. I have also tested for improvement by taking away the "rim." in the settings (IMAP and SMPT), no help.
     Well, right after re-adding the acct, the missing emails showed up, but that was it.  It doesn't update my emails until that specific time of the day (for me that time span is from midnight to ~5am).  I'm able to send out email fine.  
    Anyone has any suggestions?
    Thank you very much in advance.

    Re: Yahoo.ca email account information disappears or is not recognized
    ‎11-25-2013 08:53 PM
    The password disappeared again, so I changed the password as you suggested.
    I discovered that Yahoo had changed the password requirements, and that was likely causing the problem.
    (I wish the error message had been more specific so I would have known that was the issue earlier).
    I created a new password according to the new Yahoo password requirements, and I have not had any other problems with it so far.
    Thanks.
    It was not me it was user cb_ca and the above is what they posted. You can ask that user your question, just click the envelope icon on the middle of the page near the top and you can send them a message, just enter the users name mentioned above and type your message.

  • How can I send email using two different email address that both link back to my one exchange account on my Ipad mini

    How can I send email using two different email address that both link back to my one exchange account on my Ipad mini? 
    On my PC I simply have a master return email address and use a POP for the secondary address.  Both are through the one exchange account without a problem.  I need to be able to do the same on my Ipad.

    Ah, I should have made that clear.  My domain didn't come from google.  It was purchased at and is hosted at dreamhost, but I haven't used their email servers in years - I just route everything through gmail.  I actually have a bunch of domains (with websites).
    Gmail has an option that lets someone with custom domains send (and receive) email through gmail using the custom domain once Google confirms proper ownership of the domain (to prevent spammers and such).  Gmail has a setting for "send email as" which allows gmail to be sent using a custom domain as the sender.  I'm pretty sure Apple's old mobileme had this feature too, but I didn't use it.
