Can't access e-mail since your "improvement"

I am out of the country (may or may not be relevant) and Verizon refuses to acknowledge my sign-in (I am positive I am using the correct name and password). The message is "not supported." What happened? I am sporadically able to get to my e-mail, but not often.

Help - I can't access yahoo mail since changing password

I'm able to access my yahoo e-mail on my computer, and since changing my password I cannot access it on my iphone 5S or ipad. I keep getting the message that the server is unavailable or that the password doesn't match (despite trying it multiple times to ensure accuracy!). I deleted the account from my iphone, did a hard reboot, and I STILL cannot access my yahoo mail. Once again I get the message that the server is unavailable. I'm using a workaround right now by using the yahoo app, but that doesn't give me all the functionality I need. I can't imagine this is an isolated problem. I took the iphone to an apple store, and I was told i have to wait a few hours to talk wtih a tech (didn't have a few hours at the time). So I'm trying the forum here. Something tells me there's an easy solution. Can somebody help me out? Thanks!

I found the answer on yahoo. for anybody else who has this problem: You start from within yahoo. Reset the password and click the button to generate app passwords. And then you can generate a specialized password for each of your ios devices.
Here's what it says in my yahoo account:
App passwords
Certain apps don’t work with Yahoo’s second sign-in verification.
They include:
Mail apps like iOS Mail, Android Mail, and Outlook
To use these apps, you’ll need to generate an app-specific password, and then enter it in the password field of your app. You’ll only have to create and enter the password once for each app. Learn more
And here's the help page.
Generating App Passwords
To protect your account, you're required to generate a one-time password, separate from your Yahoo account password, when you use non-Yahoo apps.
Here's how:
First activate second sign-in verification on your account to use App Passwords.
From your Account Info page, click App Passwords.
Under "Generate new application password," enter the name of the app that requires a password.
Click Generate Password.
Tip: This isn't a new password for your account. It's a one-time password to validate you're authorizing access to your account from a non-Yahoo app.
Enter the code into the password field of your mobile device.
Click Done to reset the code generator.
-If you forget the code, you can always generate a new one.
You're now safely connected!
We'll save a list of apps within your "Generate app passwords" page. Also from this page, you can generate a new code or remove permissions.

The question mark means the computer cannot find a bootable volumes so can;t do anything, That, combined with annoying sounds, strongly suggests a failed hard drive.
You can ask a "genius" at an Apple Rtail Store to test it but I'm pretty sure the drive is kaput. I'm hoping you had your data backed up.

Can't access my mail

I can't access my mail.
I receive this message:
"The iCloud IMAP server “p99-imap.mail.me.com” rejected the password for user (me)"
I've re-entered my password and even changed it
Can't get through on my phone or online or on icloud.com
Any ideas?
Thanks!!

Are you sure you are using the correct ID? Many people have two Apple IDs, one for iTunes and another for iCloud/MobileMe, and it's easy to get them confused. The fact that you can't get in anywhere would suggest either that, or a problem with your account.
You could try MobileMe Support (I know you're on iCloud but there is no free support for that unless you happen to have AppleCare, and MobileMe Support have helped some people). Go to http://www.apple.com/support/mobileme/ww/ and select your country. In the next window click on a category to expand it, then on a subject to get a link to 'live chat'.

After Mac OS X 10.6.3 upgrade can't access Yahoo mail and repeatedly get message ""Sorry, we are over capacity. Please wait a moment and try again." Help, please,

After Mac OS X 10.6.3 upgrade can't access Yahoo mail and repeatedly get message ""Sorry, we are over capacity. Please wait a moment and try again." Help, please.

Did you run all the software updates after the 10.6.3 update, especially this one which will bring you up to 10.6.8.
Mac OSX 10.6.8 V1.1 Combo update
Run software update, starting with the one above.
Then call your provider and ask them what is going on. They have probably changed POP to IMAP, 10.6.8 supports IMAP

Suddenly can not access .mac mail from Apple Mail

Suddenly, I can not access .mac mail from Apple Mail (Version 2.1.1 (752.3)).
For quite a few years I have been using Apple Mail to access my .mac email. As of last Friday, Mail stopped working. Nothing has changed (accept for the installation of the latest OS X security upgrade - SecUpd2006-008Univ.pkg).
I can still access my .mac mail through the .mac web browser and I can still access it through SnapperMail on my Palm Treo 680. But, when I open Apple Mail on my MacBook, it does not do anything, just sits there. When I open the Activity Viewer window, 3 activities are going on:
1. Opening Mailbox
2. Synchronizing with Server (Connecting to...)
3. Synchronizing with Server (Synchronizing with...)
After a few minutes, the error triangle appears next to the Inbox and .Mac logos on the left hand panel.
I have tried Apple Mail from several locations (different ISP / WiFi / LAN) over several days but get the same problem.
Does anyone have ideas for a solution?
Regards
Peter

Let’s first make sure that the update is installed properly, and post back with your observations when done.
Verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
After having fixed all filesystem issues, if any, reinstall the update that appears to not have been installed properly. You may also need to reinstall the Combo Update for the type of computer and the version of Mac OS X you’re using, unless this is the version of Mac OS X that came with your computer:
About the Mac OS X 10.4.8 Combo Update
Mac OS X 10.4.8 Combo Update for PPC
Mac OS X 10.4.8 Combo Update for Intel
Take a look at the following articles for guidelines on how to properly install system updates:
Troubleshooting installation and software updates
Installing software updates
Basically, you should verify/repair the startup disk before installing the update, no applications should be running while installing it, and you may experience unexpected results if you have third-party system software modifications (not normal applications) installed.

HT5225 use a imac os x 10.4.11. I can't access my mail as of late yesterday. Is there a system problem or can I now longer use my .mac email address. I do not have any other device including a phone. thanks

I reset the password. As you instructed, but that was not enough to solve the problem.
To solve the problem I also did the following:
For my user name I included @me.com., but I'm not sure that made any difference.
I think the key to solving this was that I pushed past the error I got on the Outgoing Mail Server window. I wasn't sure I should do that but I was desperate:
Next I got this window and checked SSL.
That was it!
Finally I went into account preferences and checked the outgoing mail server settings to be sure the server port was correct. It was.
Thank you for your help.

OK, getting really close now. Per your recommendations, I eliminated the middle tier of accounts. Things now look like this:
Top Tier: a single account (e.g.: [email protected]) for sharing only common Contacts and Calendar entries to be available to all family members below.
Bottom Tier: one unique account for each IOS device (e.g.: oharahusband@, oharawife@, oharachild1@, ... oharachildn@). Each family device will add the oharafamily@ and select only Contacts and Calendars for that Top Tier account.
I have tested this at a basic level by adding, changing and removing contacts and calendar entries at the oharagroup level, and observed these entries appearing and disappearing properly in the iPhone 4 and iPad associated apps.
Now I have two additional questions:
Q1 - In the near future, as I buy additional iOS devices, I will want to be able to see my own (but not my wife's) personal information across all my iOS devices (and vice versa). When I add a new iOS devices, for example, for myself, should I:
Alternative 1:
Assign each new device of mine a unique new iCloud account (e.g., oharahusbandipad@, oharahusband iphone, etc.),
Make that new iCloud account the primary for the device in question,
Then (I'm guessing here) make sure that in the Acounts settings for each of my iOS devices include all my other iCloud primary acounts/devices, and,
Finally, add in the oharagroup@ into the new device's Accounts section to include shared entries
OR
Alternative 2:
Assign the same iCloud account number to each new device (for example, all mine beome oharahusband@),
Make that primary on all my devices, and,
include the oharagroup@ in each device's Accounts settings for sharing.
Thanks!

The settings seems to be correct...As you were able to ping the ip 192.168.1.2,it should open the setup page..Try to disable the firewall,ant-virus and other security software if any and then,try...Also try to adjust the browser settings on the computer... Open an IE, click Tools >> Internet Options, then delete all files, cookies, history, forms...Goto "Connections", make sure Never Dial a Connection is checked, click on LAN Settings and make sure all the options are unchecked...Once you are done click on O.k...Close the IE and re-open it...Now try..
It should work now...If not then,you have to reset the router and need to reconfigure it again..

Downloaded Firefox 4.0, get server error 404 & can't access Yahoo mail. It opens with Explorer & on desktop with Mozilla 3

Downloaded Firefox 4.0, to Dell Lat D630 on 4/9/11
Get server error 404 & can't access Yahoo mail.
It opens with Explorer & on networked desktop with Mozilla 3.6
tried all fixes suggested by Support @ Customer Service
No resolution to the access problem today 4/21/11. Do I reinstall 3.6 & delete 4.0? I understand this access problem is common to 4.0 users.

I did some additional testing through Proxy 4. All web sites and web pages including secure sites that I tried accessing over the past couple of days all appear to work fine with the exception of the forementioned sites. Access to these specific web pages (which I cannot currently access) are part of our day-to-day business requirements, and therefore will prevent me from using Proxy version 4.0 as our production proxy unless I can figure out why these web pages won't load, and how to fix the problem.
As an experiment, I tried to access these web pages through Proxy 4 with Mozilla FireFox and Netscape 7. None of these web browsers (including Internet Explorer) will bring up these web pages when going through Proxy 4. But bypassing the proxy or going through our v3.6 proxy works fine for these web pages everytime, and with all browsers. This leads me to believe that this web page access problem is not a browser specific problem, but something in Proxy 4 isn't processing the request to display the page properly.
As a reference, the web site in question is http://www.sunlife.ca. On the left hand side of the page go to "Sign In" then "Plan Members". Thats where the request hangs through Proxy 4 no matter which browser I use, including Netscape... but works perfectly fine with Proxy v3.6.
Can someone who is running a version 4 Proxy also please try to access the SunLife Members login page and see if it works or fails for you?
Thanks
