HT1430 Yahoo mail password not working on iPhone 5

Yahoo mail password not working on new iPhone 5

Hello tifftann,
I'm sorry, I'm a bit unclear what exactly you mean when you say that your Yahoo account "stop[ed] working". If you are having issues sending or receiving from the Yahoo mail account you have configured on your iPhone after a recent iOS update, you may find the troubleshooting steps outlined in the following article helpful:

    My iPhone yahoo mail is not working what do I do?

    Change settings in "Mail"
    Yahoo Incoming Mail Server (POP3) - pop.mail.yahoo.com (SSL enabled, port 465)
    Yahoo Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) - smtp.mail.yahoo.com (SSL enabled, port 995)

    What do you mean your Yahoo mail isn;t working? If you are talking about it not working in the mail app, remove your account from Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and add it again. Then follow the instructions here to recover your Apple ID password.

  • My Yahoo Mail is not Working on any of my Apple devices,  It attempts to download new email but then stops.  Any ideas?

    My Yahoo Mail is not Working on any of my Apple devices,  It attempts to download new email but then stops.  Any ideas?

    I, too, am having a problem with my Yahoo email account on my first generation IPad. I can't download my emails to my IPad from the server. The IPad looks like it's trying to download them but can't do it. I am able to send emails from my IPad with my Yahoo account.
    This problem started yesterday, Aug., 25th, the day after I uploaded the last update from Apple. I am able to set up another email account through Sbcglobal that will download my emails to my IPad but it is not sync'ed with my desktop mail which creates a mess when I move or delete emails.
    I've tried deleting my Yahoo account and then adding it back. Also I've reset my IPad and I've done a full restore.
    I think it has something to do with the last update, which I believe was a security update, which may have reset the firewall. That's just a guess.
    Has anyone figures out anything else?

  • Yahoo mail suddenly stop working on iphone 4s

    when you contacted Yahoo, what did they say?

  • "Push" E-Mail still not working with iPhone!

    I'm not sure what the problem is here with Yahoo and Apple but to this day I still encounter very big issues with push E-Mail regarding Yahoo and Apple...it just doesn't work! I now have a new iPhone (2G, 16GB) because I dropped my old one and the screen cracked (cement ouch). Anyways I got my new phone last week (via eBay) and once again push mail is not working. I either have to manually check or mail comes in when it feels like it...in some cases HOURS later! Or if my phone is locked/asleep the mail doesn't come into my phone until I pick up my phone and start using it. Yesterday I went to go use my phone, I slid the slider to unlock it to bring me to my home screen, the mail icon showed no mail. The next thing I know all this mail starts pouring into my phone (22 messages to be exact)! I was like geeze...this is so messed up!

    Push email continues to not function properly for me as well. The only time it ever works is if I'm actively on the phone after its been sleeping for a while, or when it polls for my other email accounts (in which case I get my "push" email at the same intervals as my regular email, making push worthless).
    None of the other functions of the iPhone does this. When I receive a call or SMS text message, my phone notifies me immediately. What is the purpose of having "push" email that notifies me when I received new mail if I have to still manually check my device? This has been one of the iPhone 3G's weaknesses since launch and STILL has yet to be fixed.
    Running iPhone 2.2. Software 2.2.1 did not address any changes with Mail.

  • Yahoo mail is not loading on iPhone 5 this morning

    My other mail accounts such as various gmails seem to load just fine but yahoo inbox is not loading on iPhone 5. I have tried to delete and add the account, reboot the phone but it hasn't resolved the issue.
    Thanks!

    I have tried these "fixes" numerous times and they never work. :( Thanks for trying.

  • Yahoo mail is not working on our iMac 9.0 OS

    Yahoo mail which previously worked on our (older) iMac 9.0x OS suddenly stopped working. Is it the simple problem with the browser (Internet Explorer 7 I believe) being old? Because the OS is older? Do we simply need to upgrade to a newer operating system, such as Mac X ? Does anyone have any ideas?

    Thank you for your help! I downloaded the Wamcom/Mozilla browser, and so far so good. It works alot better than the IE 5 that we were using! I can now access my yahoo mail, which is a big help. There is one problem and I'm not sure why, but now I can't login to facebook using Mozilla. I don't suppose anyone knows of another browser? There are also some problems with security on this version of Mozilla. But, with minor problems, it is still working faster than the older clunky version of IE that I had, and I can get email. Yeay!

  • Yahoo mail is not working on my iPad or Exchange on my iPhone

    I can send but not receive.  I've walked through the "get help" guide, including deleting account and installing.  Both Yahoo and Exchange email is not working on either iPad or iPhone, and both are on the latest iOS.  This issue began Sunday night with Yahoo on iPad and Monday morning with Exchange on iPhone.

    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!

  • Yahoo Mail Suddenly Stopped working on iphone !!!!!

    I do have yahoo mail on my iphone for a while and it was working perfect.
    Few days ago I got:
    Cannot Get Mail The user name or password for "[email protected]" is incorrect.
    but I do not have this problem when I login from my PC.
    When I try to set up my email from I phone again. Here is what I got:
    Cannot Get Mail The user name or password for “imap.apple.mail.yahoo.com” is incorrect.
    I can make all my friends’ yahoo mail work on my I phone but only the one mail account used to be working fine does not working now.
    Can someone help me?
    Thanks!

    Yes, I did. When I try to set up same account it give me "The user name or password for “imap.apple.mail.yahoo.com” is incorrect."
    I wondering if Yahoo side is blocking usage for particular account?

  • Yahoo Mail Inbox Not Working

    It seems that the Yahoo Mail Inbox has stopped fetching any messages (old or new). It will get all email from other Yahoo Mail folders... just not the inbox. I want to say it's been a problem for the last 2-3 days. The status message on the iPhone just says "Checking for Mail" and hangs.
    Anyone else having this same problem?
    Thanks.

    For better or for worse, this solution below works, found at iLounge. I'd love to know what constitutes a "corrupt email" (that is fine by PC/browser but the iPhone can't handle).

    I called an Apple tech and have a solution for the problem stated by the OP and myself:
    1) Login your Yahoo account from your computer
    2) Create a folder named InboxTest and move every email sitting in your Inbox into this new folder.
    3) Compose a new email from Yahoo and send it to yourself (the Yahoo account that isn't working)
    4) Close your browser, do not check/read your Yahoo account from your computer
    5) Go to your iPhone > Mail > Yahoo > Inbox and tap the refresh button
    5a) There is a possibility that the email you sent yourself got diverted to your Bulk/Junk folder automatically so if you don't see anything check that folder
    5b) You may need to reset your iPhone (hold home + sleep button)
    After you restart your iPhone, your InboxTest folder should show up, and your Inbox should be downloading new emails correctly. If your Inbox starts working again, do not open the InboxTest folder from your iPhone -- you will need to login from your computer again and go through the various emails in the InboxTest folder, one of them is corrupt or caused the issue to begin with... so delete any that you don't need
    I hope this helps, it's the procedure as I could remember it when I was talking to the Apple tech... it may not be step by step but I think it will work -- if not just call Apple.

  • ** Yahoo Mail setup not working! **

    Just purchased a brand new iPad, but am unable to setup Yahoo Mail on the iPad's Mail application.
    I am setting it up directly through the iPad - not via sync.
    I keep getting an error that the username or password is incorrect after choosing the Yahoo Mail option, and entering the information, and waiting for it to authenticate. The message i get is: "username or password is incorect from "imap.apple.yahoo.mail.com"
    the username and password are both correct: i am able to access yahoo webmail using both my regular mac safari browser, and the safari browser on the iPad itself, without a problem.
    I tried deleting the account and re-setting it up several times, using the yahoo mail option. i get the same result
    I even reset the password to one that did not have capital letters, in case there was a case sensitivity issue.
    It is a "free" yahoo account (as opposed to yahoo plus), but my understanding is that this should not be an issue.
    very frustrating to spend $900 for this device, and not even have basic email functionality... this was the primary reason i bought the device.
    Any help or suggestions are very much appreciated.
    [email protected]

    hey, if you read up a few posts... i was able to resolve my problem with yahoo mail:
    <<<after further research, it turns out that there are in fact periodic problems on Yahoo's end that cause this error creating a Yahoo mail account on a new iPad. While several repeated attempts to create the account failed at the time, i tried again a day later and it was successful. So problem solved.>>>
    It appears that many people have had this problem with Yahoo. It must happen from time to time, something with the servers on yahoo's end. the error they give you isnt very helpful in figuring it out.
    I suggest you wait a day, delete the account you tried to create... and recreate it not manually but using the built in mail setup, choosing yahoo mail. Keep trying until it works, because it appears the problem is on yahoo's end not yours.
    Oh and whatever you do, don't let anyone tell you (especially yahoo) that the reason is because you don't have a paid yahoo account and yours is a free email account. My free yahoo account, and many others, all work just fine.
    Hope this helps, let us know that you were able to make it work. Obviously this is a rather widespread problem that either yahoo or apple should address.

  • Email linEmail link to Yahoo Mail does not work in in FF26.0 Windows 7, 64 bit computer?

    as above

    Do you mean, for example, that if you click a link like this:
    [email protected]
    Firefox does not start a new message in Yahoo! mail?
    I think you will need to set Firefox to use Yahoo! mail using the Options dialog. Please see this article for the steps: [[Change the program used to open email links]].
    Does that work?
    Or if you can't open Yahoo! mail at all, try going in through one of these addresses:
    * Yahoo home page: https://www.yahoo.com/
    * My Yahoo page: https://my.yahoo.com/
    * General mail redirect: https://mail.yahoo.com/
    Note that many users have discovered problems with bookmarks they saved for the "old" Yahoo mail and need to update them to work with the "new" (neo) Yahoo mail.

  • Me outgoing mail server not working from iPhone / Reply to email address

    Hi, I have MM sent up on my iPhone and Mac, the SMTP outgoing mail server does not work from the iPhone but does from the Mac, to get around this I changed the outgoing server on the iPhone to my optusnet outgoing server, that has been working fine, the problem I have is if someone reply's to a email from the phone it gets bounced back becuase the reply to email address for me is @mac.com not from @me.com
    I have tried to change the reply to email address in the phone but it only allows you to change the name not the @mac.com
    I have only ever had a Me account not a .Mac account so I dont know why its locked to @mac

    I deleted the MM account on the phone and reinstalled it again. Now it is working.

  • Yahoo mail is not downloading to iPhone Mail

    My yahoo mail is no longer downloading the the iPhone Mail area.  It looks like it's trying to download, but flashes and goes away.  New Mail is not received.  I've tried removing yahoo mail (multiple times), rebooting iphone.  Everything that I know of with no luck.
    I'm on version 4.3.5 (8L1)

    Same thing here. in hangs in the inbox, says "Load More Messages" but refuses to push them through. I called Apple for two hours over the weekend, no help. I have the issue on an IPAD 2, IPHONE 3G, and IPOD 4G, same email refuses to download inbox messages. I also emailed yahoo several times to their mobile support, computer support, server support, and keep getting the same idiotic pre-composed email with "settings" instructions. The bastards won't even read the emails. I also read about deleting all your folders and trying it afterwards, same crap. No luck. I have Hard reset all three devices, restored, all three, clean re-installed all three delted accounts repeatedly no LUCK! Someone help apple doesn't and neither does yahoo!
