Mail - if Yahoo emails sync to iPhone first, MacBook will not find or sync, even if unread

So up until a couple weeks ago, everything synced fine on my desktop Mail app and my iPhone Mail app. Then suddenly, they no longer understood each other. It used to be that if I read an email on iPhone, it would mark as read on the Mac Mail, and vice versa. Now, reading on one device still leaves it unread on the other. Even worse, it seems that if the iPhone syncs with the Yahoo servers when checking for mail and adds a new email to list before the Mac at home has had a chance to check the servers, the Mac won't see it when  it goes to sync to Yahoo. Its as if the iPhone syncing to the mail now makes it absent from the new mail that the Mac should be adding to my inbox. What is going on? Why don't they stay in sync anymore? And why does the iPhone pick up emails, but then afterward the Mac doesn't see them at all as if they never came? Gmail and AOL accounts seem to be fine.

Still need help!

  • I have the iPhone 4. I recently switched from PC to IMac. I am trying to sync my iPhone, but iTunes will not let me add or remove anything. Do I need to change a setting since I changed computers? Help!

    I have the iPhone 4. I recently switched from PC to IMac. I am trying to sync my iPhone, but iTunes will not let me add or remove anything. Do I need to change a setting since I changed computers? I try to add songs from my music into my phone section and it will not go... Plus the playlists on my phone are not updated on my iTunes phone on my computer. Its like it never updated. What am I doing wrong??

    Iphone will sync with one computer at a time.
    When you sync to another it will delete the current content.
    Make sure you have copied everything from your old computer to your new one first.

    You will need to upgrade to Snow Leopard 10.6.8 in order to update iTunes to sync with your iPhone.
    Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
    Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    and in the UK:
    http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard to bring it up to 10.6.8, or download the combo update from here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
    Check via Software Update whether any further updates are required, particularly to iTunes.
    You should now see the App Store icon in iTunes, and you now need to set up your account:

  • My emails on my mac and macbook will not send but the connection doctor confirms connection to the server.  Any ideas???  Thank you

    I am unable to send emails on my imac and macbook.  They go straight to my outbox.  The connection doctor comes up with green lights.  Any ideas?  Hopeing someone out there can help me - thank you.

    EA68, who is your broadband provider, if it is Sky then they have recently merged with Yahoo, and there have been similar problems with people who use Mail to access their emails.
    If this is the case you will need to remove your SKY account from Mail and then set it up again.
    Make sure you clear your inbox, and back up any important emails you have.
    IN MAIL go to prefrences and accounts. Highlight SKY account and select the MINUS or delete sign.
    Now select the PLUS or add button and type in your sky email address, and then your sky password. Follow on screen instructions, and your emails should then work.
    Hope this solves your problem.

  • IPhone 4 will not find my home network

    I bought an iPhone 4 two weeks ago and I still cannot get it to detect my wireless home network.
    I use a Time Capsule as my router, which is plugged directly into my modem via ethernet.
    My Macbook can find my network/TC fine, and has done since I bought it.
    My wireless settings are 802.11n only (5GHz) with wireless security set to WPA2 Personal.
    I tried changing my settings and found that the only one that worked at connecting my iPhone was 802.11n(802.11b/g compatible), but it caused serious problems.
    The connection between my TC and Macbook was severely reduced, and it could not detect my TC in Airport Utility, so it would not run the Time Machine back-up, and I was unable to get access to the settings to change them back.
    I had to do a full reset on my TC(power down, hold reset button in and power on again) about six times before I could get it all working properly again and get access to the settings.
    If I try to manually search for my network on my iPhone, it still will not find it.
    It will find other peoples networks, but not mine.
    And my current settings are the only ones that work perfectly with my Macbook and Time Capsule.
    Any help?

    My wireless settings are 802.11n only (5GHz) with wireless security set to WPA2 Personal.
    Therein lies your problem.

    I also have a TC which supports simultaneous dual band. I have two bands or networks - one 5GHz for my MBP, Time Machine Backup, and Apple TV, and another set to 2.4 GHz for my iPhone. The name for one of the networks includes 5GHz with the name and the other doesn't, which is the one I connect my iPhone with.

  • Will i lose my yahoo email on my iphone if I change internet provider

    I am planning to change internet providers on my macbook pro at home. I currently have verizon and my iphone email and my apple id is a yahoo email linked to the verizon account.
    Will I be able to access my yahoo email with a new internet provider on my macbook pro and will it continue to sync with my iphone 5?

    Yes you will be unable to use your email address after June 30, 2012, if you do not update your MobileMe account to an iCloud account.
    You can upgrade your account and continue to use the email address in your mail application by entering the details manually. You will not however be able to use any other features of iCloud.

  • I cannot read my yahoo email from my iphone

    i cannot read my yahoo email from my iphone but i send mail from iphone and also see bulk mail.
    what setting shoude do?

    Did you get the Yahoo login page but then it was blank after you logged in?
    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    1. Clear Firefox's Cache
    orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Offline Storage : "Clear Now"
    2. If needed, delete the site's cookies here
    While viewing a page on the site, right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

  • New iPhone 5 will not connect to sync

    I have a new iPhone 5 I got a couple days ago and it will not connect to sync in my car. I have a Ford Fusion 2012, and I had a 3GS that I used with it, and it worked perfectly for the few months I've had the car. I've tried everything with my iPhone 5 but it will not connect. It doesn't even ask me to put in the PIN. Sync shows the PIN and then I click on sync on my phone and it just sits there for a minute until eventually it says to make sure sync is on, in range and ready to pair. Any suggestions?
