Cannot Receive Yahoo Mail on One eMail Account

On iPad:  Cannot receive or send yahoo mail on account #3.  This account works fine on my iPhone and two computers.  Accounts #1 and #2 also work fine on the iPad in question.
Previous to Deleting Account and Adding it back we would simply receive "Updated Yesterday"  or now "Updated Monday".  Would not update Account #3.  Again Accounts #1 and #2 work fine on problem iPad.
Any suggestions?

A lot of people have been unable to access Yahoo e-mail on their iPhones or iPads. My wife’s iPad was not downloading Yahoo mail, although her iPhone was. Both used IOS 8.2. We tried deleting the account several times and troubleshooting all of the other settings. The problem appears to have been that allowing the IOS to automatically create the account on the iPad resulted in the wrong settings for the incoming server. The following procedure, pieced together from two websites, fixed the problem for us. So far, so good.
https://portal.smartertools.com/kb/a2659/configure-imap-for-iphone-or-ipad.aspx
https://help.yahoo.com/kb/mobile-mail/imap-server-settings-sln4075.html
On the iPhone, tap Settings.
Tap Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Tap your Yahoo account, then delete it.
Tap Add Account.
Tap Other.
Tap Add Mail Account.
Complete the Name, Address (email address), Password and Description fields.
Click Next.
Ensure IMAP is selected.
Enter the following incoming mail server information:
Incoming Mail (IMAP) Server - Requires SSL
Server: imap.mail.yahoo.com
Port: 993
Requires SSL: Yes
Hostname is mail.yahoo.com.
Username is your full email address
Password is the same password used to access webmail.
Enter the following outgoing mail server information:
Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - Requires SSL
Server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Port: 465 or 587
Requires SSL: Yes
Requires authentication: Yes
Username is your full email address
Password is the same password used to access webmail. It may have been entered for you.
Tap Next.
The iPhone will establish an SSL connection to your IMAP and SMTP servers.
That’s all!

  • Suddenly cannot receive Yahoo mail in Apple Mail

    As of this past Monday, I can no longer receive any of my Yahoo mail thru the Apple mail client. I keep getting a message that tells me port 995 timed out (or 110, after I changed it/w/SSL on and off).
    I checked with Yahoo and the help was iffy (no big surprise there). We did some telnet tests and Yahoo said it was probably my ISP blocking port 995. I doubted that, but to be thorough, I contacted my ISP and ran some pings and we could get thru to the Yahoo IP address.
    I ran Mail on a separate computer and had the same issues, so it's not specific to one machine.
    I can send/get Yahoo mail via my iPhone (via WiFi) with no problems.
    I can SEND mail thru my Yahoo account via Apple Mail, with no problems.
    I installed Thunderbird and am currently downloading all the messages from my Yahoo account, with no problem. So, Thunderbird seems to be working.
    So, what I'm left with is wondering what suddenly happened to Mail that I can no longer download Yahoo mail. I've changed no settings since Monday. I've updated nothing in over a week.
    Why, suddenly, would Mail no longer download Yahoo?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Tips too.

    I'm experiencing the same phenomenon. My yahoo mail is working flawlessly on my iPhone, however the Mail app is not connecting to the POP server. For the past two days I've had the triangle/exclamation icon next to my mailbox. I have an att.net mailbox account and don't have any issues sending and receiving mail. A pop-up asks if I want to take the account online and still to no avail. I've deleted the account and later added it with some success as it begins to fetch my 500+ messages still on the server. Minutes later I get the warning icon and again a pop-up asking to take the account online.
    Is anyone else experiencing this?

  • Cannot receive e mail in my Tiscali account

    Hi,
    I've had a Tiscali account for 6 months and have had no problems until I returned from a 2 week holiday.
    I had a message saying my account had reached full capacity (or something to that effect). I've deleted all messages from inbox, sent and trash but can now only send messages and am unable to receive anything?
    Any ideas anyone?
      Mac OS X (10.4)  

    I have a similar problem, I have just returned from a holiday during which I successfully received my mail on my computer through someone elses server. I hadn't received any mail since my return so tried to access mail through Safari. I can't access the mail section of .mac on my computer. I went to an internet cafe and checked my mail via .mac and had 20 new e-mails that my computer couldn't see. I have a Talktalk broadband account and everything worked perfectly before I left.
    I have lots of .mac space available and have recently visited the Genius Bar where they said I have lots of space available re e-mails
    I have reset safari, I have deleted and re entered my account details in mail preferences. The situation hasn't changed.
    Any ideas?

  • Cannot receive e-mail at my verizon account.

    Someone stole my password at my Windows live mail account.I have reset my login and passwords for both my msn and verizon e-mails.  Error messages: Unable to send or receive messages for the verizon account. Settings for outgoing mail(SMTP) might need to be reconfigured.

    There's a few reasons why that may be happening. like:
    If you're using windows live mail to send/receive your Verizon emails and you want to reset the password, be sure to login with the old password at the email website at my.verizon.com,go to account overiew, profile, change my password, and not in windows live mail. The site may reject your password choice if it doesn't meet security standards, so you then will try a different password. If it accepts the password you set in windows live mail, it should start working normally. If you change it to a different password, be sure to set the new password into windows live mail as well.
    If you did change the password at my.verizon.net, make sure the password is also changed in windows live mail. Check these settings, hopefully one of these apply to what's happening. If it doesn't work and/or I misdiagnosed the problem, get back to me here, fill out the secured link below, notify me that it's been submitted and I will contact you to further troubleshoot.

  • Cannot receive e-mail from one correspondednt

    A correspondent with a Comcast account regularly sends me an e-mail with attachments, usually once a week. This has been working fine. Now, however, when he tries to send me the e-mail, he receives a message that the e-mail cannot be delivered to my inbox. If I try to send an e-mail to him, he never receives it but I get no message that it cannot be delivered. This just started about a month ago. Neither of us blocked the other. The message does not appear in the spam file. Nor he nor I have any trouble with any other e-mail correspondents. Anny suggestions of why is this happeneing and what can be done to fix it? Thanks.

    What is the reason listed in the delivery failure message? Having that would help a lot.

  • I can't gey yahoo mail to send email- it says something like not connected to server?

    I Cannot get yahoo mail to send emails. I wonder what step I missed during the sort up process?

    Howdy msmantila,
    It sounds like you cannot check your Yahoo email on the iPad. I would recommend the troubleshooting in the following article to help get that resolved, named:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Mail
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3899
    Tap Safari and load a webpage. If you can load a webpage, then your device has Internet access. If you can't load a webpage, check your Wi-Fi connection or try a different Internet connection:
    Try a different Wi-Fi connection.
    If your iOS device has an active cellular data plan, tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn off Wi-Fi.
    If the affected email account is provided by your Internet provider, see if your issue is resolved while connected to your home Wi-Fi network.*
    Log in to your email provider's website to make sure that the account is active and the password is correct.
    Make sure your settings are correct using Mail Settings Lookup.
    Restart your iOS device.
    Delete the affected email account from your device.
    Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
    Tap the affected email account.
    Tap Delete Account.
    Add your account again.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Sterling

  • HT1430 I cannot get yahoo mail.  The message asked for password for yahoo many times.

    In order to use Yahoo! Mail, please turn Private Browsing off. Please go to Settings » Safari » Private Browsing, and turn it off
    I cannot get yahoo mail nor send email on iPad 3.  I have OS 6 just upgraded.  It keeps on asking for password.  I think my yahoo email was also hacked to compound the problem.  Please help.

    I get this warning now To. Never saw it in last 5 years and 4 iPhones. Cannot get yahoo small biz email access anymore via iPhone on safari web login because of this same warning. Typically , either yahoo or apple screwed up and changed something that effects millions and think nothing of it. (battery gate in all the iPhone 4/4s comes to mind here)
    As you can tell I "used" to be an apple fan but after this iPhone 4s dies (prematureally of course) I will be getting my first android phone and see flash and the rest of the hidden Internet that apple kept from myself the paying customer.

    cannot send or receive yahoo mail or gmail from iPhone . installed ios 6 recently. tried rebooting the phone and deleting the email account and adding again but nothing works ! can someone suggest a solution?

    Not sure about yahoo, but for gmail, I done the following:
    Set up using Exchange on iPhone, it'll keep prompting for password.  On PC use captcha option, log in to gmail account from PC after completingg captcha option, enter password on iPhone.
    See how that goes for gmail, let us know.
    Hopefully someone will have fix for yahoo.

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • How do I continue to use Mail on my MacBook2? i use iCloud on my iPhone and iPad but cannot receive my Mail account on my older MacBook.

    how do I continue to use Mail on my MacBook2? i use iCloud on my iPhone and iPad but cannot receive my Mail account on my older MacBook. I have followed the iCloud/move link as suggested but it doesn't give me the continue to use Mail option. Any help gratefully received.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Delete your mail account from Mail preferences and set it up again using the Mail Server Information.
    Some users have apparently encountered issues using this information in pre-Lion set ups (I haven't), Roger Wilmut has kindly provided instructions for those who find themselves with this problem.

    Can you set up a rule in your old account to forward mail to your new account and then delete it from the old account?

  • TS3276 Someone who receives my mail sent from Apple Mail cannot receive attachments or read my email even though they are on a Mac using Safari.  How could they be using Safari to receive or read my mail?

    Someone who receives my mail sent from Apple Mail cannot receive attachments or read my email even though they are on a Mac using Safari.  How could they be using Safari to receive or read my mail? 

    You can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make it drink.  This person receiving my email,  while on a Mac with Safari is reading their mail through Safari using Horde--our recent discovery.  Why they chose to do that in unclear. The last email we sent, however, was miraculously read and received and  the attachment was viewed with no problem after we told them our mail was coming from a Mac thriugh Apple Mail.  It seems that telling them that our emails were coming from a Mac and using Apple Mail was enough to make them think that perhaps THEY were doing something not quite right. Thank you both, Level 7 and Level 5. 
    But thank you especially for the meteorologists in the UK for putting forth the correct routes for Sandy these last days, you probably saved a lot of lives.
