HT201320 Problems using emails on my i-phone

My email address is a yahoo one. I am trying to use this on my phone without success. Has anyone any idea what I may be doing wrong?

There has been a flood of posts here about Yahoo mail in the last few days. Apparently the Yahoo servers are having problems (again). Either contact Yahoo or wait it out.

Problem using email to upload image files to Mobile Me gallery

I will cross post this question to both Mail and Mobile Me discussion groups because I don't know where my problem lies.
I have published a gallery page from iPhoto to my Mobile Me gallery. There are two ways to upload additional photos. I am not having trouble adding image files with the Upload feature. I cannot get the email function to work. The emails I send to the email address for the gallery bounce back to my mail inbox.
Subject: Delivery Notification: Delivery has failed
and in the body of the bounced email:
Recipient address: [email protected]
Reason: SMTP transmission failure has occurred
Diagnostic code: smtp;521 5.2.1 Fatal failure of WOA
Remote system: dns;post.mac.com (TCP|10.150.69.91|51195|10.13.19.27|25) (mbin002.mac.com ESMTP [2.3.3/gso-r197-19Feb2007] ready to rumble)

One of the images I am trying to attach is a jpeg file of 61 kb.
I have tried to drag the image from my desktop to the body of the email. I have tried using the "attach" function and selecting the file name. I am not sending any text with these files.
When I built these albums, I checked and enabled all the options.
I am having this same issue when I try to upload via email to any of my Mobile Me gallery pages.
There is currently one photo displayed here:
http://gallery.me.com/tplattenberger#100352
If anyone wishes to try to upload to that gallery using email (Send to Album) that would be great and if successful, that might provide a clue to my problem.
As I say, I currently have one photo there. If you find a lot more, please do not add.
What's the problem?
Tom

The images I am trying are newly created and old.
A weird hint perhaps...
I just copied an image from Apple's home page and pasted it into the email and tried again...
it worked.
So I tried again, dragging from iPhoto and it did not work... the email bounced back.
So I tried again, this time using copy and paste (like I did from Apple's page) from iPhoto... it did not work.

Several Problems using email

OK, I have problems using the email both via the web and via my email client software.
iMac running Mac OS 10.7.5; Firefox web browser, Thunderbird email client.
First the web problems. I can save a draft message, but when I return to finish and send it, I can't either edit the draft nor send the draft. If I highlight a word in the draft and try to delete it, the entire draft is moved to the trash.
Now the email client software problems. I've set the client up using the server settings from Apple's KB article iCloud: Mail server settings for email clients However, iCloud rejects them as being invalid plus I'm told my password is wrong (the same password that works fine logging in via a web browser). Additionally, the Apple KB article says to use iCloud Preferences in Mac OS 10.7.4 and later but there isn't any place there that addresses the server settings.
Any help will be appreciated.

In Mail's Accounts/Mailbox Behaviors preference pane check to see how you have Sent configured. Maybe change it, reboot and then change back to what you currently have.

IWeb - problems using email message hyperlink inspector

The email message hyperlink was working fine when creating websites. For no obvious reason it gave up and now when I choose it it fails to show and only "external page" will show. I have tried it on a new site and a new page, but it's the same problem. Has anyone else experienced this? If so, what can I do ? I empted the iWeb cache etc etc

HT201320 Problem with email connection

Having trouble getting connected for sending emails. Service provider is ntlworld.com (part of Virgin).
Followed on-line instructions and it worked OK for incoming, once I’d worked out the right password to use, which is same as for the Virgin webmail site. (I first tried an earlier password from when email was set up with ntl about 10 years ago, and I don’t remember changing it to the Virgin webmail one).
I’ve tried both and various others, including my Apple password, but no joy.
Please help!

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.

Problem sending emails on a MacBook using a new BT...

Can anyone help? I am using a Mac Mail on a MacBook running 10.6.8. We received a new hub from BT and I am no longer able to send emails from my email account using the hub. Wireless connections other than my own home hub work just fine, so I know there is a problem using the home hub.
As you can imagine this is VERY frustrating. I have paid a technical support person £50 to look into this and we have no answers. I have spent an hour on the phone to BT help and got nowhere either. They could not understand that I was running Mail on a Mac and gave me instructions to diagnose the problem that were for PC users. They could not put me through to Mac specific help.
I have read through lots of varied forum posts and have found out that it seems simply that BT hubs do not seem to like Apple products. My email is provided by 123-reg and I am using their webmail to send emails but am not happy to do this on a long term basis. I work both from home and elsewhere and am not a technical person so need a practical and straightforward answer to this problem. I am paying BT each month to use the hub and if I cannot I would like to stop paying asap.
Can anyone help?

Have you just moved to the Home Hub 3 or 4 after being on the Hub 2? If so, I can provide a resolution for you.
The issue is with the way the mac presents it's name to the router, it doesn't resolve properly on the router and as a result causes issues with email providers that use SSL.
The easiest way to check if this is the issue is to go to the apple menu>system preferences>network. Select wireless on the left hand side, then advanced in the bottom right corner. Select DNS at the top of this screen. Then press the + symbol in the bottom left corner and then type 8.8.8.8. Hit apply, then close the network prederences box. This will probably ask you to save the changes. Hit save, or apply changes.
Open mac mail and try and send a new email, should go fine.
Now we have determined the issue, the fix is quick, but a couple of steps. Go to spotlight in the top right corner of your screen and type terminal, select it from the list. This will bring up a little screen where you can enter type written commands. You need to type scutil --set HostName DavesImac (for example). then close terminal.
Next step is to go back to apple menu>system preferences>sharing. At the top of this screen it shows the name of your mac. There is an edit button, hit that and then in the box on the next screen type in the same name as you typed on terminal (DavesImac in our example), then hit apply.
Go back to system preferences, then select network. Select wireless again and at the top it shows location. Click on the up down arrow and then hit the + button and enter a new location, home for example, then select it. Hit apply at the bottom of the screen. Then hit advanced again and at the top select tcp/ip. There should be a button on here Refresh DHCP lease. Hit that and it will refresh your connection to the router. CLose down all the screens, reopen mac mail and try and send an email, should go fine.

Huge problem using apple mail while sending email to a group...

Hey - I am quite confused... apple mail has huge problems using groups with about 150 addresses when writing and sending an email... the writing of emails is nearly impossible. Once the group name is inserted in the addressline (address book in iCloud!), apple mail uses nearly 100% CPU and further writing is nearly impossible. When sending such an email, all addresses are suddenly visible - though the box is NOT checked and the addresses should be hidden... what can I do? I use this feature (sending mails to groups) on a daily basis and cannot accept visible addresses...
Greetings and sorry for inconvenient english...
Christof

How about next time you send to the group, cc yourself, or include yourself in the group. Then receive the email on the iphone, you can "reply all" in order to send to the group. If you use an imap account, you can make a new folder, call it something like "groups", and save different group emails there for the next time you need to "reply all".

How can i remove my phone number from imessage and just use email address ?

Hi all
I've searched all the forums and still can't find an answer for what i need (what i think i need!)
I have an iphone without a data plan so whenever anybody who is registered with imessage sends me a message i will not
receive it until i am back on wifi.
What i want to achieve is to be able to receive sms messages from imessage users when i am not on wifi and then imessages when i am back on wifi.
My assumption is that if i can unlink my mobile number from iMessage and only have it associated with my email address that this should work, but i cannot seem to remove my phone number from imessage, in the settings > iMessage > send and receive it will allow me to un-tick the associated email addresses but my phone number is greyed out and will not allow me to untick.
On my home Mac i can go into messages app and deselect the phone number but not on the iphone.
One solution says to deregister my phone on https://supportprofile.apple.com/ which i have tried (i can't see how that would work anyhow as there is no phone number in that registration)
Any advice would be greatly appreciated,
thanks, Andy

Regardless if using your cell phone number or your Apple ID email address, iMessage requires an internet connection via an available wi-fi network or via your carrier's cellular network. Without a data plan and no internet access with your carrier's cellular network, an iMessage addressed to your email address can be received only when your iPhone is connected to an available wi-fi network no different when an iMessage is addressed to your cell phone number.
You cannot deselect or remove your cell phone number below you can be reached by iMessage at with iMessage on an activated iPhone. The iPhone's phone number is activated along with your Apple ID.

A have new problem that has appeared in my Mac Mail. When I type a frequently used email into the 'To: line' it populates the correct name but with 8 different email addresses not associated with that name.

A have new problem that has appeared in my Mac Mail. When I type a frequently used email into the 'To: line' it populates the correct name but with 8 different email addresses not associated with that name. I have gone to the window pop-down to 'previous recipients' and deleted that addressee as well as all the email addresses it is assigning to that name. I have also deleted the account entirely from my address book. I have have run repair permissions and also full defrag in iDefrag. Still the problem persists. Any suggestions?

Hello CarolineLongEaton,

If you are interested in comparing the problems to see if your solution (if you have found one) might help me also then here is the link to the discussion.

Until recently I was able to send images in the body of my Yahoo emails. Now, I am getting the message "This message has been truncated", and the email does not go through. I do not have this problem using IE. Could you please help? Thank you.

Does facetime use the email address or the phone number to make a call

Does facetime use the email address or the phone number to place a call

Depends on what the receiver has set up on his or her device.
Also depends on the device. iPhone uses the number, iPad, iPod touch uses Email. But can be set up for phone number too if the person has an iPhone.
Hope this helps.

I updated my phone last Wed with IOS 6 and now I am not getting my emails pushed to my phone from yahoo. any idea why or how to fix this?

you'll have to set it up as a new phone. You have no choice. If you've been using your phone as recommended, you should have little, if any, data loss.
