Can't access yahoo email account on my mac

for the past month I haven't been able to access my yahoo email account via my ibook. I can access it from any computer accept for my mac. I've written yahoo and they sent me a six page document that's completely useless. I can log into my email account but I can't view the emails or compose a message.
Please help!

Are you trying to set up your Yahoo Mail account through the Mail application or login via the web? If you're trying to login via the web, try downloading and installing another browser and see if that lets you login.

  • Cannot access yahoo email account when I have been able for 6 years.

    I am unable to log into my yahoo email account on my Mac OS X. This is very sudden. I have been able to for 6 years. I CAN access on a PC. I have never had this problem. I have never set up the mail program on Mac OS X.

    No, it will not affect anything but Safari. I do this regularly anyway (in my case with Firefox because I prefer it over Safari). The cache remembers websites you've visited and, when internet connections were slow, then that was handy because the browser would reload the page from memory instead of reloading it fresh. With faster internet connections today, it is no longer of the same importance - it does speed up things a bit initially, but I haven't noticed any difference. Cookies are set by every site you visit - the only ones you might want to keep are cookies from your bank, financial institution, etc so they remember your machine when you log in. Other than that, they are a marketing tool and completely superfluous. And history is again something the computer remembers that you've visited a site before.

  • How do I solve MFMessagerdomain 1032 when trying to access yahoo email account

    how do I remove MFMessagerdomain 1032 when trying to access yahoo email account   I put in password (correct) and still comes up with message

    No. Everything was working fine and then it wasn't. I hadn't changed any settings or switched either one off. When the phone stopped working properly I ignored it because I always have my ipad with me but that just sopped working properly and now I am stuffed. I have tried most solutions suggested on here even wiping the ipad clean and re-booting. I did this exactly the same way as when I first got it but still no joy. The same with the phone.

  • How can i access an email account on TB from a separate computer without deleting/modifying how the other account is setup

    I want to be able to access another email account that is set up as a POP account on TB, but I do not want to modify how the other email account is set up. My co-worker and I often need to access each others emails. Is it simply a matter of adding the email account on my computer as a POP, without moving his emails? Or would this require changing his account to IMAP? When i set up his TB account, I made it a POP so there are no messages on the server at the moment. What I don't want is for his emails to move from his computer to mine.
    (He's new to TB and that would drive him crazy - I already did that when I switched him from Outlook)
    Thank you

    ''Is it simply a matter of adding the email account on my computer as a POP''
    Yes. And make sure to check the option to leave messages on the server prior to accessing the account.
    Having said that, I think it is a very bad idea to share an account that way.
    Note that this will give you permanent access to your co-worker's account.
    In addition you're not only storing your own messages on your computer, but also all your co-worker's messages.
    The same is true for him if he does the same.

  • I can't access my email account on my iPad

    I Had delete and set up my email account due to problems. Now I can only access the inbox, but not my saved messages. How can I fix this?

    AAll my email came in through yahoo, but my provider is also sbc global.net. When I couldn't get any email through yahoo I added another account and used ATT (sbc global.net) as my provider which is now getting me my incoming mail, butt i can't see any of my saved/sent mail for the account. Does that make any sense?

  • Cannot access yahoo email account

    although I can open my yahoo account, when I click on mail, on this computer, it seems to be in a permanent loop - login.yahoo...., flashing in the address page., and it never stops. I can access my email through Internet Explorer and another PC but not this one.
    And when I try to bookmark the page (that is continually changing or at least seems to be) here is what is says: https://login.yahoo.com/config/mail?.intl=us&.done=http%3A%2F%2Fus.mg4.mail.yahoo.com%2Fdc%2Flaunch%3F.gx%3D0%26.rand%3Ddi7d7m2rvo3fr

    No, I'm using classic. When I sign in it show that I have 2 accounts on the left side. It always works with my original account, but when I try to access the other account that I added with my website that I have with yahoo it does nothing. I never had to sign out and sign into the other account before, I would just click from one account to the next. I also get an error message all the time that says that I have been signed out of chat because I signed in on another system, but I am not? I do wish to continue using yahoo mail. I just hope to get this resolved so I can use my mac which I love. Thanks.

  • Can I access my email account on a second computer at a different address?

    The email account is used for a company which trades from my home address. Someone who lives at a different address will shortly need access to the email account as well. Is this possible?

    As you have not stated what type of mail account you are using - I've given info on both:
    '''POP mail accounts:'''
    by default POP mail accounts can only get access to the webmail Inbox and download from that Inbox to the pop mail account in Thunderbird.
    Usually, it downloads and deletes off the server, so if you want to create POP mail account for the new user, you would need to mke sure the settings are to 'leave messages on server' on both your computer and the new user.
    Tools > Account Settings > Server Settings for pop mail account
    The main issue here is that the Inbox should not be used as a general store, so you create folders to store emails. Unfortunately, this would mean constant monitoring to make sure both computers actually were using the same folders, as the user can manually create folders, you could end up with emails stored differently on each computer.
    '''IMAP mail accounts:'''
    see a remote view of the folders on the server.
    So, you could enable IMAP forwarding via the webmail account and then in Thunderbird create IMAP mail account.
    If you currently have a POP mail account in Thunderbird on your computer, consider creating an IMAP mail account, which can be set up on both computers, then each can see folders on server.
    Move all emails from POP mail account into Local Folders first.
    When you are certain all Pop emails are stored in Local Folders:
    Then remove the POP mail account.
    Tools > Account Settings
    select pop mail account
    click on 'Account Actions'
    Select ' Remove account'
    click on OK
    Then create an IMAP mail account.
    Subscribe to see folders. Synchronise subscribed folders to get a copy of folders in your Profile folder.
    Make sure you create regular backups regardless of whether POP or IMAP mail account.

  • How can I access 2different email accounts?

    How can I access 2 different email accounts. I thought when I selected mail it would give me list of email accounts. Am I doing something wrong? Please help...

    Have you set up both accounts in the Mail settings? If so, then you should be getting mail from both accounts.
    I'm not sure what you're expecting to see by a "list". As of iOS 4.x on the iPad, all mail appears in a single Inbox, so you won't see two different accounts as such, if that's what you were expecting.
    If that doesn't answer your question, please post back with more details as to the problem you're experiencing.
    Regards.

  • I can not access my email accounts or icloud or messanger on my ipad

    I can access the internet but i cant use email, icloud and messanger. The email accounts under setting and email is gray and i cant click on the accounts.

    That looked helpful so I followed the Restore directions you sent me to. Now the trouble is that I've wiped all my data (having backed up first) and when I come to restore from my backup it again asks me for a password - which I haven't set.
    I have definitely not lost any password - I keep all of them in an mSecure file vault. I have a record of a passcode for the phone itself but that does not work.
    Is there any way i get get inside my iPhone Backup and find the mysterious password? None of the ones i use work!

  • I can't access my email account - I am not mobile so what is SMTP server?

    I can't send from my email account.  It is not mobile me and I don't know what the SMTP server should be help please?

    SMTP stands for Simple Mail Transport Protocol. It's used to sending email. This would be a server that your ISP or mail provider defines. POP or IMAP is usually the protocol used by your mail provided to receive email.

  • How can I add an email account in apple mac which ends with .consulting

    We changed our email account and the domain name is .consulting. How can I add this account to my Mac mail?

    If you are trying to activate an iPad or iPhone and it is asking for a previous Apple ID and password, you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature that prevents thieves from setting up and using a stolen or lost iPad or iPhone. You have no alternative. You must use the previous Apple ID and password to unlock the device. If you do not know the password you might be able to recover it at this link:
    https://iforgot.apple.com/password/verify/appleid
    This normally will require that info is sent to the primary email address associated with the Apple ID. If you have an alternate email address assigned to that Apple ID you might get the password via the alternate email address.

  • Can't access old email account to reset security questions

    I have forgotten my security questions (or haven't set any up - I can't remember)  and am told the reset information will be sent to an old email address I no longer have access to.  I have reset all contact email addresses that I can see.  The one it tells me it will send the reset link to was the original one I used to set up my apple id.  Anyone know if there is a way around this  ?

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • Can't delete old AppleID from iPhone because I can't access old email account

    I can't remove the old iCloud profile because I don't have either the password or access to the old email address.  How can I remove it when it insists on me entering a password that I don't know and cannot reset?

    I have had the same problem and I was able to delete all but one.  The one that won't delete is the one that is currently playing.  It cannot be swipe deleted.  I had another song that I was having a similar problem so I connected to iTunes, synced that song to the phone and then it would let me delete it.  So, I synced the entire album that contains the song that I can't delete.  Doing so allows me to swipe delete all of the songs until it says "No Content".
    However, if I select the "Now Playing" in the upper right-hand of the screen, the song is still playing and when I go back to the Songs list it is back like David F@#king Copperfield with no option to delete it.
    I don't want any music on my phone (that's why I have an iPod) because every time I get in my car and the phone connects to the radio it starts playing over Bluetooth audio automatically.
