How does Yahoo Push mail work?

When you have the push mail option on, is the iPhone always connecting to the web looking for new mail?.....or does yahoo send it to the phone as soon as you receive it? Just curious as to how push mail will affect my battery life.

Whenever there's new mail, the server sends a response over the same connection. This is the "push" notification.
I don't think that's quite accurate.
From what I've been able to tell, Yahoo! Push is rather non-standard. Rather than using IMAP IDLE or standard P-IMAP, it uses a proprietary UDP-based form of out-of-band notification. When the phone gets one of these OOB notifications, then it opens a new connection to the IMAP server and checks for mail.
I suspect that many of the reliability problems stem from these OOB notifications not being sent/received correctly (packet loss, perhaps?)

Does yahoo push not work for bulk mail folder?

I don't seem to be having any problems with yahoo push in my Inbox, but it doesn't seem to be working for my bulk mail. I have to actually go into my bulk mail folder for it to update. Is this normal? Thanks!

That is normal activity. Works the exact same way on tests phones we have set up. Bulk/junk mail is not something that all would like getting pushed through.

How to Get Yahoo Push Mail to Work on the iPhone- Finally

I post this for the benefit of all of you struggling with this same problem and how to resolve it.
I talked to AppleCare this morning and this is what they said that Yahoo push start working- the first thing that has after spending several solid useless days trying every other recommendation on various forums, none of which worked. Here is what they said to do:
1. Restore completely, without having the backup restore onto the iPhone.
2. Delete all of your email accounts on the iphone (I did this first before doing #1 to see if the remainder would work without a restore, but it did not, but when I went back and did #1 first it worked).
3. Re-enter all of your e mail accounts, beginning with the non-yahoo accounts first- very important. Be sure to set up at this time whether you want them manually to check or every 15 minutes for mail, etc., BEFORE you set up or enter the Yahoo account.
4. Then, after the above, enter the Yahoo account.
The support guy told me that for some reason changing how often the send receive occurs (manually, etc.) AFTER first setting up the yahoo account somehow overwrites information for the yahoo account and keeps the push from working. He said he had solved the push for a number of people following the procedure, and I agree, it did work.
Whether it will keep working I am skeptical! Also, I meant to ask, but did not: Does this mean that if I now ever change how often the iPhone checks for mail will it now overwrite the yahoo information and cause the push to stop working again, meaning I have to do the above steps again.
Finally, the push is not instantaneous, but is in about 2 minutes or so, at least from what I have seen- a lot better than every 15 minutes.

Sorry it did not work for you. Call Apple at 800-myiphone- maybe they can help.

How does "notify me" actually work in mail app

Might be a daft question, but how does "notify me" actually work in iPhone email app?
I get the principal but surely when you get a reply thats already noticed you?
Could someone advise me how it actually notifies and is it in addition to receiving the reply to the mail?

I have the columns in place. But I have a few questions -
1. Iis there some kind of audit trail report on the updates to my record to the table? If so how do I get to see?
2. Am I expected to create a <entity name>_HISTORY table for this to work? I see some such recommendation here .

Yahoo push mail is not working

After 2.0 upgrade, Yahoo push mail has stopped working. In settings "Fetch New Data" is set to "Push". But I don't get any news emails from Yahoo pushed to my iPhone. I have tried delete and reconfigure Yahoo mail, and also resetting the phone but still couldn't get push email to work.
I've set a 25 message limit - I see 25 mails in my inbox but I also see 3 phantom messages the end. These 3 phantom messages show up with only the ">" sign with no sender or subject and I can't read them.
Has anyone seen anything similar and have suggestions to resolve this? Thanks!

I've had my iPhone for about a week now, one of the first to get it the Australian release. My yahoo mail was coming across fine for the first day or so but then it stopped. I removed the email account from the phone and re-added it. It hasn't even been able to grab my folders let alone my email. It just animates the little spinner and says "checking for mail..." forever.
I just saw on another web site, somebody claimed if you removed the email account, went to yahoo and changed your password to something without special character, only letters and numbers, then re-add it that it would work. This based on the some story that the iPhone has trouble sending those characters. As my email was working at one point and since my password only has letters and numbers in the first place, I doubt this is what is going on. Here is the post, her instructions are in the comments: http://blogs.computerworld.com/iphoneand_yahooyahoo

How does the trade in work?

How does the trade in work. If you don't get your gift card until 4-6 weeks after you mail it. How do you apply it to the cost of the new phone? If I go to a store that has it in stock will they give you the credit in the store?

Hi Karen922!
I can happily alleviate the confusion! If you visit a store and the iPhone 6 or 6 Plus is available you'll receive the trade in value during the transaction. If the device is purchased online,via the phone or if the store is out of stock, you'll receive the gift card in mail.
Thanks,

1.1.2 push mail works!

To my earlier posts about major volume improvements (and other posts about other fixes) now add another one. Yahoo push mail now works great, with less than 5 seconds to push email to the iPhone. Before it was off, on, etc. with apple blaming yahoo and vice versa. This is not a minor update- there are lots of fixes throughout. Getting 1.1.2 is a must.

Agree completely, but right now I am just really happy to have the many fixes 1.1.2 has. The volume improvement alone was just really huge and fixed a major flaw that really bugged me. The push mail fix is just icing on the cake. I bet we will find lots of subtle but important fixes throughout as people start to find them.

Is it possible to have your whole family on one apple id or is it better to have each person have there own? If each has their own does each id have to buy their own music and apps? How does find my iphone work with one apple id or two? also I am going to be going off to college soon should I make an itunes id for my self and how will I get all the music from the old id?

Is it possible to have your whole family on one apple id or is it better to have each person have there own?
Yes, it is possible. 1 apple ID can be associated with up to 10 devices.
If each has their own does each id have to buy their own music and apps?
Yes, all purchases are non-transferable.
How does find my iphone work with one apple id or two?
Every device associated with one apple ID through Find my iPhone is tied to that Apple ID; Find my iPhone will work in the same way with up to ten devices associated with one apple ID. You cannot enable Find my iPhone for one device across two apple IDs
I am going to be going off to college soon should I make an itunes id for my self and how will I get all the music from the old id?
If you have authorized a computer with the old apple ID, you can transfer old media purchased through the old to other devices via iTunes. This doesn't mean the media purchases through the old apple ID it transferred to the new account. If you plan to make future purchases and don't wish to share them with others, make your own apple ID.

How does this IMPORT statement works

can any one tell me how does this statement will work..
I am wokring on Solution manager system , where in there is a function module SSF_FIELD_LIST
to which system passes form name.
import fields to fieldlist
from database stxfcontr(sf) id l_fullname.
stxfcontr is a table which contains value of in a diff

It will import data object stored in memory under named fields to your custom data object fieldlist .
The table which it is stored is name stxfcontr under RELID (memory area) SF .
Cluster key (key of the entry) in that table is behind var l_fullname
Anyhow I think [this link|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/fc/eb3bf8358411d1829f0000e829fbfe/frameset.htm] is more that any explanation. Once you study it, you will understand the above.

How does the verizon wifi work? Do you pay monthly?

I want to buy the new iPad with retina display as a gift, but how does this verizon wifi work? Do you pay monthly or have to call Verizon?

You're post is a little confusing. WiFi signals are not done through Verizon unless you are talking about using a Verizon MiFi hotspot such as this http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/store/controller?&item=phoneFirst&action=view PhoneOverviewByDevice&deviceCategoryId=13&cmp=KNC-58700000028195084&zipRdr=y.
4G wireless cell signals are done through Verizon. WiFi comes from places such as your home wireless network, or WiFi hotspots at places like Starbucks, restaurants, pubs, etc.
If you are asking about Verizon's wireless cell service, it's $20 a month for 1 gig of data, $30 a month for 2 gigs of data, or $50 a month for 5 gigs of data.
