My iPad 2 can't load new Yahoo emails from my home WiFi (but loads them fine in other WiFi environments and loads Gmail messages fines at home)

My iPad 2 had no problems loading e-mails until about a month ago. Then it started periodically being unable to load new e-mails from one of my two Yahoo accounts (the primary one), but the secondary Yahoo account worked fine. (It says "Checking for mail..." and never stops checking). This only happens when I'm at home, using my home WiFi (a slow connection.) Now, for the past two weeks, about 95% of the time, neither of my Yahoo accounts works on the iPad, although I have no problem accessing these accounts on my iPod Touches or on my desktop Mac mini. If I take the iPad to my neighbor's house and use her WiFi, I can get the Yahoo mail. (She has cable/internet through Comcast; I have DSL.) I can access the Yahoo mail in public WiFi environments like Starbucks, Barnes & Noble, and the Apple store. I upgraded the operating system to ios 6.0.1, and the problem didn't go away. I've been to two Apple stores and seen two different "Geniuses" about this. The first one observed that although the iPad could load mail while in the store, it was doing so very, very slowly. She did a complete restore (erasing all of my apps, photos, etc.) but when I got back home, the problem resumed. The second Genius couldn't figure the problem out, either. He suggested I contact Yahoo, which I highly doubt will get me anywhere. I eventually added back all of my old apps, but then deleted them again in the past few days thinking that perhaps a persnickety app was causing a problem. No luck.

Answering my own question here. It's fixed! Another user recommended I switch to another wireless network then back to mine. And it worked! Mail is sending again with no problem.

Can't receive new yahoo email on ipad problem started Sept 1

Starting yesterday, Sept 1, my ipad quit loading new ymail messages. I went through yahoo chat and they had me change my password and delete and add the ymail account back on the Ipad. Neither of these actions fixed the problem. They finally had me send a problem report to their mobile unit--don't know why they couldn't do that themselves. Haven't heard back from them. Wondered if others have had this problem and received a fix.

TS1398 iPad will not connect to my wifi, but it will connect to other wifi. iPhone still connects

iPad stopped connecting to my home wifi for no known reason. It will connect to my neighbours wifi so I downloaded the latest update.
I have tried "forgetting" the network, turning wifi off/on, power off/on ipad and reset the network settings.
iPad wifi shows my network and accepts the password, but the "clock" just keeps spinning and never actually makes the connection.
My iPhone is connecting ok, hence this message.
Any ideas? I have reached the end of my knowledge. The network shows IP address and subset mask but nothing else. My iPhone shows different numbers and more info for the router etc.
help!

You technical god! May all your wishes come true and you win the lottery with a ticket you found in the street!
Short answer yes it worked!
Thanks.

My older iPod Touch has music from another Apple ID, but I have had multiple other Apple IDs and I can't find out which ones they are from. I would also like to know how I can copy the music and have it saved to my computer as an audio file.

So I have an iPod Touch, 2nd or 3rd gen., and it has music synced from multiple Apple IDs. I need to know how to copy that music as an audio file to save on my computer.

You can copy iTunes purchased from a device to your computer's iTunes library via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases - if the account is authorised on your computer's iTunes then you should be prompted to authorise it when trying to copy them.
Or there are programs listed half-way down this page which can copy them back : Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device
You can then add them to your iTunes library via File > Add To Library, again you should be prompted to authorise the account if it's not already authorised.
You can also find the account that a track is tied to be selecting/highlighting it in the My Music part of your library, or the Music section of 'OnMy Device' when you select the device, and doing 'get-info' (command-i) - it will show on one of the tabs on the popup

Under Settings, then to Yahoo mail, I tapped the "Reset All Accounts" button, now I can't access my Yahoo email. What do I do to get my email back to the way it was?

I tapped the "Reset All Accounts" button under settings (Yahoo Mail). Now, I can't access my (Yahoo) email from my iPhone. How do I re-set to the way it was?

If it still shows up under your accounts you would want to tap on it and then tap on the email address. You should see the option to sign out, do so and then re-add the account by hitting add account from settings> Mail contacts and calendars.
If the accounts are not on the device start at re-adding the accounts.
If you need the server settings you will need to contact Yahoo.

When I update apps on my iphone, sometimes my current email comes up as my apple id, and sometimes my old email comes up as my apple id. How can I remove my old email from my account?

When I try to update apps on my iPhone, sometimes my apple ID is shown as my current email, and sometimes my old email comes up. How can I delete the old email from my account?

I just delete the old app and repurchase the app again? They are all free apps.
That's what I'd do, since they are all free apps. Be sure & delete in iTunes as well as on your phone. When prompted in iTunes, move all files to trash & empty your trash. You don't want any trace of them left.

On my ipad mini, when I delete an email from the inbox (and it goes into Trash), it immediately deletes that email from the server (ATT/Yahoo). I've called support for both ATT and Apple and can't find a way to have the emails remain on the server.

My husband and I share an email address and if he misses a day checking email on his notebook, he doesn't receive the items that I have sent to Trash on my iPad Mini.
Appreciate suggestions.
[The curious thing is, if I "move" the deleted emails from Trash on my iPad Mini into the Inbox, I can go to my notebook, open my online email and they are back in my ATT/Yahoo Inbox.]

Is your Yahoo account set up as POP3 or IMAP?

I just sent a rather detailed question. I can repeat if I must, but it involves downloading Javascript in order to use my new Yahoo email account with Firefox. Please advise.

I repeat: I established an email account with Yahoo.com. I prepared my new address book, have sent several emails to friends, changing my email address. NOW, I can't open my Yahoo email, I get a message that to make Yahoo work with Firefix, I must download Javascript. But the directions to download aren't complete. Do you have someone I can talk with since it appears to be a compatibility problem between Yahoo & Firefox? My old email address (still working): [email protected])

Am I supposed to wait? It's now been 18 minutes since I got your email, confirming my Help question. Jim Zim

Can't get my yahoo email to work

Hi there,After the battery of my 9360 Blackberry died, I just bought a new 9720 two days ago in Dubai, thinking that I can just put the same SIM card (from the 9360) of my home mobile provider SwissCom into the new 9720, and that I can just continue to receive emails from my yahoo email account. But it is not working. After I setup the yahoo email account under the Setup function on the new 9720, the acount is listed with the Yahoo symbol under Email accounts ... where you can then choose to 'add another email address' or 'return to setup'). But the icon 'Email Accounts' (under Setup, where it lists all the different features you can set up besides Email Accounts) does not idicate (with a (1) next to it), that an email account has already been set up. When I try to compose an email, I get the message 'No message services configured. You will be redirected to the Setup Wizard to set up your email account'. If I click ok to follow this direction, it brings me to the Email accounts screen that shows the already created Yahoo email account. If I try to create the yahoo account again, I get the message that 'This account has already been added to your BlackBerry Internet Service'. But obviously my yahoo email account does not work because I cannot write or receive messages. According to your KB05000 post, I did delete my yahoo email account [CMIME] in the service book, but I noticed there is a second Internet Service service book for my yahoo email account that ends with [CICAL]. I wonder whether this has anything to do with it and whether I should delete this as well? Many thanks in advance.Jens

Thanks John, I resent it and i got the message that it was successfully resent. However, when I check in the Service Book section, there is no yahoo.com [CMIME] there, even after doing a hard shut down (taking out the battery) and starting up again. But the yahoo.com [CICAL] is still there. What's the difference between CMIME and CICAL anyways? Thanks, Jens

Change your iTunes (Apple ID) password along with any other password that was stored in the iPod. If any passwords are associated with credit cards, contact the CC company and get your card replaced (with a new number). If any passwords are associated with your bank or any savings institution, contact them also and discuss approprate action with them.
The "Find my..." function is pretty much useless if the device is in the hands of a thief. All that is necessary is for the thief to connect to any computer with iTunes and "Restore as new."
The only real protection you have is with the personal information on the device rather than the physical device itself. This requires action before the device is lost/stolen. If the device has significant personal information, it should have a strong 8-digit (or longer) password AND be configured for automatic wipe in the event of ten consecutive incorrect password entries.

TS3899 I can't access my yahoo emails in the email in the iPhone 5c it was working perfectly fine earlier an now it quit

I can't access my yahoo emails in the email in the iPhone 5c it was working perfectly fine earlier an now it quit

I have a similar problem. I was receiving email on my iPhone for months, and then it quit working. When it quit working, I continued to receive emails on my iPad even though the server and port settings were exactly the same between the two devices. I tried deleting and re-adding my email account on the iPhone and restarting my iPhone, but I still couldn't receive email on the device. The only way I could get email to work on my iPhone was to switch to using a POP3 email server (this is the server that my phone auto detected when I re-added my email account) -- the server that was working previously and that is still working on my iPad is an IMAP email server. Since the IMAP server settings continue to work on my iPad, it seems that the problem is with my iPhone and not my email server.

Why can't I send group emails from iPad

Why can't I send group emails from iPad and iPhone?

There's a functional workaround to send Group emails that takes some setup, and a copy-paste. But it's easier than any one-by-one solution cooked up without a 3rd-party app. Here's the way:
STEP ONE:
Go to Settings>General>Keyboard-->Shortcuts
Add a new Shortcut by typing in the full email addresses in the "Phrase" field, separated by comma and space; type in the few letters representing this "Phrase" in the "Shortcut" field.
STEP TWO:
In the email app, IN THE BODY OF THE EMAIL, type in the letter for the Shortcut and space. Then Highlight-->Copy this text and paste it into the To: Field. (Obviously: Delete this text in email body; and use CC: or BCC: fields as desired.)
Regrettably, you CANNOT just type the Shortcut in the address fields as it gets lobbed into one address.
This "No Group Email Functionality" rates a #FAIL by Apple. One of the few.

Since your Mac probably came with 10.4, there is no longer a way to get 10.5 Leopard install media. IF it has the requirements, you may be able to upgrade to 10.6 Snow Leopard by buying the boxed install media at the Apple Store for $30.
System requirements are found here: http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
