IPhone 5 won't push Yahoo Mail messages

Hi everyone!  I do love the iPhone 5 but I've experienced a problem for about a week now.  The problem is that the phone won't push new e-mails instantly.  The funny thing is, it will push data on one Yahoo account, but not the other.  (I do have two accounts set up.)  I noticed that the account that isn't working was set as the default address, which is what I prefer, but I did just switch it to see if that does any good.  I doubt it will.
I can get my new yahoo e-mail messages by manually refreshing or pulling down to refresh.  It's not that they aren't coming in at all, it's just that I'm not getting them instantly and that can be frustrating at times.  I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling.  I'm just using the standard mail app for iPhone, not using the Y Mail app.  All software is up to date and I am running iOS 6.0.2

first of all, the iphone doesn't do the pushing. Yahoo's mail service in conjunction with apple's push notification server does the job, the iphone receives them.
so the problem may be with the abover 2 services. contact them.

    Hello there stidhambr15,
    I was researching the issue you are having and recommend a couple of things. First it might be a good idea to reset the device following iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't quite get the device going again, I recommend restoring the device.
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software

    Might even be a good idea to turn off the phone, reseat the SIM card, and turn it back on.

  • Iphone 4 won't send e-mails via aol

    My iphone 4 won't send e-mails from my aol account.
    i have updated to the latest software which has made no difference, it wasn't working on the previous software.
    I have removed and installed my aol account again, switched wi-fi on and off and nothing that I have read on other posts seems to work.
    Does anyone have any other ideas, very frustrated!!

    I am having the SAME problem. It is driving me nuts. Did you fix it?

  • IPhone 4 OIS-7 to limit mail messages to 50

    How do I set up iPhone 4 OIS-7 to limit mail messages to 50 as I could in OIS-6?

    Same thing happening to me as well.  Attempted to put my work email account on my phone like I've done at every other job I've had and get told it can't connect to the server.  Job's IT dept verified setup is correct.  No idea.  Nothing but problems since IOS7.  Can't sync to home Mac anymore either.  Time for a new phone.

  • Settings won't save Yahoo mail after adding second verification?

    My Yahoo email was hacked.   Most of the emails in my Yahoo account were sent a spam mail from my Yahoo account.  
    As advised, I changed my password and added some extra security - a second verification so no one can login to my account without additional security questions or verification code.
    No problem adding email back on my android phone.   But my iPad and I can't figure it out.
    I signed out of yahoo mail on iPad.   Deleted the account in settings.   Verified it was gone.
    Added the account back in settings, or tried to.   I get the message server unavailable.   It won't save the new password.   It won't trigger second verification.
    I went through Safari and I can login to Yahoo mail on Safari.
    I am also able to add the account to the yahoo mail app and use it.   But my iPad is constantly asking for the password.
    I'm hoping someone else has had a similar problem and solved it.   

    I hope I have a self answering question.... Thanks to the "more like this" side bar.
    the problem comes from your second sign-in verification, go to your setting in your yahoo account then go to Edit your account info, then go to Manage your app password a new page come out, go to the Manage your app passwords box and write " my iphone mail" then press generate password, this will give you a long password this password you gonna use it ones in your iphone and ones in your ipad.
    then go to your iphone open setting then go to your emails,contacts, calender. Then press yahoo account and go to your yahoo account information, erase the old password and enter the new long password and done.
    hope work for you guys, did work for me.

  • Firefox won't load Yahoo mail jpg's (Mac)

    JPG images attached to Yahoo mail won't display in Firefox (Mac), either in preview mode or when the message is fully opened. The images show up as dogeared pages at the bottom of the email. "View Slideshow" also only shows the images as dogeared pages in a separate window. However, if I forward the email, the images do show up on the message while I'm editing it.
    Safari has no such problem, and Firefox has no problems if I open the same message in Gmail.

    I have the same problem happening, but only when I'm trying to relaunch the applet - I can get the applet to launch on the first try, but then if I leave it open and my connection times out, I can't relaunch the applet later. The only thing that seems to work is rebooting my computer - I've tried clearing cache, cookies, etc., and it has no effect.

  • Yahoo Mail message issue

    I've seen some postings about this, but my issue seems to be a little different.  I have a Yahoo Mail account set up on my iPhone (actually, it's an old sbcglobal.net email).  Everything was working fine until about 1 week ago, when I started seeing emails come into my inbox with the correct subject line, but the body of the message only contained "This message has no content".  There's nothing to tell me to download the rest of the messasge or anything.  When I go into Yahoo Mail directly (either on my computer or through Yahoo Mobile mail), the message and content are there.
    I've tried to delete and reestablish my account on my phone, with no difference.  I have also set up the account manually.  When I do that, I can see the content in these messages, but I don't get all of my other folders, and my mailbox on my phone doesn't seem to sync up with Yahoo (I can delete a message on my phone and it still shows in my inbox on Yahoo Mail).
    Anyone have any ideas about this?  Like I said, it just started happening about 1 week ago.  I'm running the current version if iOS.
    Any help would be appreciated!

    This is a server issue with Yahoo.  I've seen at least 1 other thread about receiving subject line only without the body, and the problem resolved as mysteriously as it appeared.

    The best solution is to find another email provider.  Of all the "major" hosts, Yahoo has been consistantly (and by far) the least reliable with the iPhone.

  • Iphone 5 won't load yahoo email

    My iphone 5 won't load my yahoo emails. When I go to my inbox it only shows the load more messages option. When I click "load more messages" nothing happens. I've tried restarting the app, phone, deleting the email account and changing the password.

    Try it and see if it works. If it doesn't then the problem is on Yahoo's end.

  • Yahoo Mail Messages on my 8120

    I enabled Yahoo mail on my corporate issued 8120, I'm getting my Yahoo messages fine, but the problem is that they end up in both my Yahoo Mail folder as well as my corporate messages folder.  I don't want copies of my personal messages being tossed into my corporate mail box, any idea as to how I can fix this?
    And I'd like to seperate my SMS messages out from my corporate messages/mailbox also, can I do this?  Everything seems to end up in "messages", but to me that's supposed to be my corporate mailbox and not a unified messaging folder.
    Day 2 on the BB, so apologies if I'm missing the obvious.
    Thanks!

    Thanks Cowboy, that is very helpful, my SMS is now seperate from my email messages.
    But I'm still getting Yahoo mail placed into both my default messages folder as well as my Yahoo mail folder.  I do have the Yahoo mail folder, Yahoo email messages do show up in that folder, the problem is that a copy of those messages also show up in my default "messages" folder.  I couldn't find any way to further "seperate" messages, any ideas?

  • Updated iPhone 4s to latest system yahoo mail cannot connect to server

    Apple claim this is a yahoo problem. Contacted yahoo who needed to reset password, which could only be reset on a computer, done successfully.However, although yahoo email address can be obtained via yahoo website it still cannot be accessed directly via mail app on iphone. I was contemplating deleting mail app and reloading same but concerned this will remove notes, calender and reminder information. Any help/advice please

    Wait for a minimum 24 hours and try re-configuring. It's a known issue and don't have any specific resolution.
    Good Karma
    Holydevil.

  • My iPhone 4S has stopped recording voice mail messages. How can I fix?

    My iPhone 4S (sprint) has stopped recording voice mail messages. The phone is 2 months old and it stopped about a month ago, but it took me several weeks to realize that there was a problem as I initially thought that callers just weren't leaving a message. I have now tried to leave myself voice messages and confirmed that it's showing up as a voice mail but failing to record it. Has anyone ever encountered this problem and if so, what is the fix?

    No iPhone records voicemail messages.  Visual voicemail is simply an interface to the carriers voicemail servers.
    Contact the carrier to troubleshoot the issue with their voicemail.

  • Why can't my Lumia phone get the yahoo mail messag...

    Hi,
    just bought myself a Lumia 920 and configured my yahoo mail account. Unfortunately it seems that the Lumia only polls every 15min(at best) but my N8 gets the same mail instantly.
    Am I doing something wrong or is this just another "Lumia feature"?

    Strange, thought that it would. Perhaps there are some settings within your Yahoo Mail account when you check it on a PC? Maybe something in there. if there isn't any other settings on the phone, then only thing you can do is check on PC as i said, or leave feature suggestion over at http://windowsphone.uservoice.com
