HT4528 yahoo email "grouped" contacts

I have a new iPhone 4. I use Yahoo! email. I'm having difficulty getting my "grouped" email contacts to sync to my iPhone from  my yahoo account. All the rest of my email contacts in my yahoo mail are synced....just not the grouped ones. Help!!

Hi there. Have you tried to contact Yahoo e-mail support? It seems that's more likely a problem with the way the website is serving content to Firefox since what you're describing is a website functionality.
Unfortunately I don't use Yahoo e-mail myself, but someone else might be able to provide more specific help. So, my recommendation would still be to contact Yahoo about this, and provide a screenshot of what you're seeing (and expecting to see).
Good luck!

  • Importing Yahoo emails into contacts list

    I have 3 Yahoo email accounts. There are different email addressess saved in each account since they are used for different things.  Some of the email addresses are saved into the contacts app on my iphone 4s (where the phone numbers are) but there are a few missing. When I go into mail, obviously they are all there. I just don't know how to actually get them all into the contact list where you also keep phone numbers. Under settings, mail etc the contacts slider button is on for all 3 accounts.
    I hope I'm making sense!

    go to   settings > mail contacts and calandars ,  then select each account and verify whether the slider for contacts is turned on
    Hop that helps

  • Why won't Yahoo email recognize contacts using firefox 11?

    I have Windows 7 and my contacts are recognized in my yahoo email using Internet Explorer but the contacts are not being recognized in firefox 11. Any suggestions? I would rather use firefox if I can get the contacts to work with my email.

  • My Yahoo Email is not downloading to my iPhone 5. Any thoughts?

    My Yahoo email is no longer downloading to my iPhone. I can send email out from the account, but new emails to the account don't show up on my phone, although I am receiving them.
    I have already tried:
    - Turning my phone off
    - re-entering my password
    - deleting the account and re-opening it
    Any help would be much appreciated!

    Contact yahoo and see what the problem is.

  • Using Groups with Yahoo email

    I have an email group of people in my contacts (used for sending jokes) when I try to send an email using that group in my Yahoo mail, I pick the group through my contacts and it opens up the list with everyone listed and I have to pick each name to attach to my email. Is there anyway to grab all people in the group at once? Scott

    I have a similar problem. I haven't been able to get a Qwest smtp server to send mail so I've been using the gmail smtp server. Now all my outgoing messages are shown as being sent from my gmail account. This happens even if I use the MobileMe smtp server.

  • Yahoo Email and Calendar will sync to my iPhone, but Contacts will not.  Selection for "Default Account" doesn't even show in the Contacts section within Settings on the iPhone.

    I have always had my Yahoo Email, Calendar and Contacts synched to my iPhone.  However, I noticed some Contacts weren't synching from the Yahoo account to my iPhone, so I thought if I just deleted the Yahoo account and added it back, I'd be fine.  That worked fine for my Email and Calendar, but now I have NO Contacts from Yahoo on my iPhone.  When I go to Settings, under Contacts, it doesn't even have the option for 'Default Account.'  Help!

    Hello Marsha,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    It's not clear exactly what you're trying to accomplish here.  If you're wanting to set up SMS forwarding introduced in iOS 8, then please follow the directions below.  Also, your Apple ID should be an email address.
    To use Continuity for SMS and MMS with your iPhone and your Mac, iPad or iPod touch
    Your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch need to use iOS 8.1, and your Mac needs to use OS X Yosemite.
    Sign in to iMessage on your iPhone, your other iOS devices, and your Mac using the same Apple ID.
    On your iPhone:
    Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > You Can Be Reached By, and add a check to both your phone number and email address.
    Go to Messages > Text Message Forwarding, and enable the device(s) you would like to forward messages to.
    Your Mac, iPad, or iPod touch will display a code. Enter this code on your iPhone to verify the SMS feature.
    Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity - Apple Support
    Take care,
    Alex H.

  • How can I move all my contacts into a single email group from all the other group?

    I've got several email accounts, but my contacts are spread across them. Of course, when I access or search my contacts they do all get searched together, but I need to delete an account and this will result in me losing many contacts.
    So before I do this, I want to consolidate all my contacts into my main personal email group account. But short of doing them one by one, I can't find a way and I have several thousand contacts at risk of being lost.
    Can anyone advise me?

    Go to your Contacts on your Mac - if more than one pick the most accurate; delete any contacts you don't want. Select all the contacts, and from the File menu choose 'Export...'>'Export vCard'. Save the resultant file safely: it will be your 'master' list.
    Now delete all the contacts from whichever device has the most in it. Sync with iCloud. If necessary repeat with different Macs. The result should be that the deletions sync to iCloud and in the end you finish up with empty Contacts lists everywhere.
    Now you can import your saved file to one of your Macs. Make sure you import it under 'iCloud' not 'On My Mac'. Then it should propagate iCloud and any other devices. Keep the saved file at least until you are satisfied that all is in order.

  • Im trying to drag and drop a email group from contacts to a new email message. But it will not let me in OS X Mavericks. Before I upgraded I could do this.

    Im trying to drag and drop a email group from contacts to a new email message. But it will not let me in OS X Mavericks. Before I upgraded I could do this.

    I just posted this fix to another thread and thought it might be useful to post to all of the threads I read trying to fix the problem. Here it is:
    Having the same issue over here with Mavericks 10.9.1 on a new Macbook Pro/Retina. Just now found a workaround/fix/whatever:
    - click on your group in the group pane of the address panel
    - click anywhere in the name pane and select all (command + a)
    - click the "To:" or "Cc:" or "Bcc:" tab right above the group pane at the top of the address panel window.
    The names of all of the individuals in the group will appear as an expanded list in whatever field you clicked. It takes a second or two to happen.

  • How to see Yahoo Emails in IPad contacts

    All,
    New to the whole world of Apple, IOS etc. Recently bought the newly released iPad (iPad3). Right after purchase updated the iOS to 6, so its  running the latest IOS. Setup my Yahoo Account & it works fine. But I can't see the contacts stored in yahoo Account in the contacts app of iPad. In iPad Settings-->Mail,Contacts,Messages-->Accounts-->Yahoo!--> Mail, Contacts, Calender, Reminders & Notes is set to ON.
    Fetch New Data is set to ON. Push is set to ON. Fetch is set to Every 15 minutes. Under Advanced-->Yahoo-->Select Schedule : Fetch is checked.
    However when I open the contacts App in iPad I cannot see the Contacts saved in Yahoo account. Can someone guide me on how to go about setting this up?
    Appreciate any help.
    Thanks and Regards
    --RaoVS

    Once they are marked as junk, any future emails from them will be sent to the junk or spam folder, thus I will still be receiving emails from them, they a just routed to a different location in my email. If this is correct, I would like to completely block the email address and prevent them from sending me emails versus routing them to my junk box. I appreciate your time with helping me on this matter.

  • How do I create a group contact list for emails?

    I can open an new email contact for a single person, but how do I create a group contact list?

    http://kb.mozillazine.org/Thunderbird_:_FAQs_:_Create_Mailing_List
    In Address Book, File/New/Mailing List, name the list and close it, then add contacts to the list by dragging them from an address book and dropping onto the list icon in the directory (left) pane.

  • Text file over 200 external email addresses to add to outlook client - Can I import these email addresses to a Group Contact in outlook

    Can i import from a text file (text file only has smtp address) over 200 external email addresses to 2010 outlook client - specifically group contact. I did not see an import button on outlook client.  It would be very convenient if users can manipulate
    a text file which has all their external email addresses import these addresses to one group contact (mailing list)

    Hello Christopher,
    Please follow :-
    Step 1
    Open the text file in a text editor, such as Notepad. Each address should reside on a separate line or be separated by a semicolon. You can include multiple fields, such as names and addresses, by separating the fields by a space or tab.
    Step 2
    Press "Ctrl-A" to select all contacts on the list and then "Ctrl-C" to copy them.
    Step 3
    Click "New Items" from the main Outlook window, "More Items" and then "Contact Group."
    Step 4
    Click "Add Members" and then "From Address Book."
    Step 5
    Click the "Members" field, press "Ctrl-V" to paste the list of emails and click "OK."
    Step 6
    Click the "Name" field and type a name for the group.
    Step 7
    Click "Save & Close" to save your changes.
    Step 8
    Click "New Email" and type the name of the group in the "To" field. You can then compose and send email as usual.

  • Should my "Contacts" be "On" or "Off" for my Yahoo email account?

    I lost all of my Contacts in my COMPUTER for my Yahoo email account; I then looked through my iPhone to see what my email settings showed and it showed my Contacts were turned "Off". I turned them 'On" and now I'm getting ominous messages about turning it back "Off" again. (I don't know what I'm doing and should never have turned them "ON" without knowing what I was doing.)
    Does anyone know if I can get my iPhone email contacts back onto my computer? And Should my iPhone be "On" or "OFF" for my Contacts in my Yahoo email settings??  Help!

    You only turn that off if you have very sensitive operations and data that cannot be corrupted by power loss or serious loss incurs. Mainly server operations and database files.

  • How do I read & update email group subscription status for a specific contact via api?

    Looking at Eloqua's api documentation, I can find out how to update contacts, and even the global subscription flag, however we want to build a page on our custom website whcih allows users to opt in and out of specific email groups (as can be done manually from the contact page / preferences tab)
    I cant find the appropriate api documentation for this - I found a page for contacts:
    REST API - Contact Fields
    and a page for email group:
    REST API - Email Groups
    any idea how can I find and udpate the object linking the two ?!?

    Via REST API, the bare bones call is:
    PUT /API/REST/2.0/data/contact/{contactid}/email/group/{groupid}/subscription
      "type": "ContactEmailSubscription",
      "contactId": "3174",
      "emailGroup": {
      "type": "EmailGroup",
      "id": "15",
      "depth": "minimal",
      "name": "Test Email Group"
      "isSubscribed": "false"
    Where isSubscribed can be toggled to true. This is the same call made by the UI when you open the contact record, move to the preferences tab and right click to subscribe or unsubscribe on an email group:
    The list of email groups and their ids can be obtained via GET /assets/email/groups. I recommend adding ?depth=minimal to avoid retrieving unnecessary configuration information.
    Best regards,
    Bojan

  • Yahoo email contact list compromised /spammed all my contacts

    Ok, so I did click on a link that someone close and dear to me asked me to check out via an email.
    It turned out it was from an old account of hers that she hasn't used in years, but I still recalled it for I used it at one time.
    which is why I thought it genuine.
    ok so now the Fun, not to mention the Boo
    A few months later, last week, I go into my yahoo email account and notice all these mailer daemon emails.
    Those notifications of not being able to deliever your mail.
    I notice that they were mostly from email accounts from about 20 years ago, that I never deleted ,but knew that they no longer function as these people have changed their address or email provider compleleltly .
    Not unlike the account of the original email from the dear friend that started this nightmare....
    Then I got a hunch after seeing all these mailer daemons in my inbox to check my sent box.
    YIKES a ROONIE O  !!!!!!
    All me contacts have been sent this really embarrassing buisness opportunity of a lifetime....
    The same one a few months ago I clicked on with this computer....
    I know I know ...stand me in the corner with the dunce cap on...
    they got me.....
    so I copy /pasted all me contacts into my imac stickies....pretty clever huh...we don't have a word processor but there is the stickies...
    And it does remember what you put in it....winkety wink!!!!
    And then deleted all my contacts in the yahoo account...sigh.
    This account has so many a connection to my real life i just can't delete it...
    soooooo...
    What do you think happened....I see this buisness opportunity and apology from various forum members from various forums I attend online.
    same thing with me , the forums i was set up to email my posts and recieve contributions.....the forums I attend recieved the bogus spammer....very embarressing...
    It makes you look like a moron or some desperate fool trying to earn money from an inane job.....a job for the jobbless..a carrear in buffoonery 101 .
    A) is my computer compromised
    B) is some trojan living in the bowels of my OS
    C) how to delete this thing
    D)thinking of buying icloud and backing up everything on it and doing a total reformat.
    E) not a bad idea huh, it's along the stickie idea and comes from the same desperation to do something with imac.
    F) any suggestions
    yours forever even though virus/trojan stuff is starting to happen on imacs
    FunBoo
    OXO

    I did and i think i might know whats happening.
    I think the email account is actually on yahoo server and not in my computer.
    If thats the case it's a yahoo issue and not apple.
    They don't seem to talk about it though and you have to like fish around and guess.
    too much money involved i guess.
    so like when i clicked on the link it was allowing something to happen on the yahoo server...
    when ever you download an attatchment from yahoo mail...it always gets checked first before coming into my computer...
    so i never downloaded anything just clicked away on yahoo...
    which tells me every email you send on yahoo ...is assessable to yahoo people...
    live and learn...
    i'm totallt inept at this stuff...do not know what i'm talking about...it's all feeling around in the dark...
    any comment on what i just wrote would be cool
