My yahoo email wont work on my iphone 5...what do i do...thanks

I can't get my yahoo email to work on my iphone.. what do i do now..thanks

No it issn't an iphone issue.
The issue is with yahoo and their server.
You can do a search in the forum "yahoo mail"  and see how many threads there are about not being able to connect to Yahoo server and the answer is the same it's Yahoo problem not Apple or iphone.

  • Yahoo email not working on my iphone as of last night, tried OS upgrade no change

    Getting  - the connection to the server failed

    Ok, this is what I figured out after 4 hours of testing. Restoring as a new device didn't help for me. Also hard reset, re-installs, unchecking and checking all notification options did not help. I installed facebook messenger but also this program did not have notifications (all my other notifications work.....)
    As my wife deactivated her account I made up a new test account and logged in on my Iphone 4S. Surprisingly this new account had no notification problem at all. The problem is I had been testing with messages all along (and not with reactions on wall posts). It now turns out that all works fine on my original account except for notifications of private messages (or you can call them chat messages). They will simply not work on my original account but work perfectly on my new test account.
    The only difference between the test account and the original acount is that I a have an active user account (FB is doing some testing with acttive users so that they receive lesse indicidual mails by gving those users the option (a check box) to receive overview mails) . See also http://socialsunil.com/facebooks-summary-email-feature-for-active-users/. Could this be the reason I do not receive private message notofications?
    I do not know but I definitely know this is an account problem and not an hardware or software problem. So to all of you try to log in with a different or test account to corner the problem. Please react on this post if you have a solution.

  • Yahoo email not working with 8.1.1

    I upgraded to iOS 8.1.1 this morning on my iPhone 6 and iPad Air 2.  Since then neither has been able to get any new mail from Yahoo.  Is there a problem with this upgrade and Yahoo email?  I've received lots of mail today, just not on my iPhone/iPad.
    I've also got to say I've had more issues with my iPhone 6 and iOS 8 than I ever had with my iPhone 5 and the various versions of iOS it had.  Probably the most annoying complaint is that I see 3G A LOT more than I did with my 5, and I'm in Verizon LTE coverage areas most of the time.  For a bigger phone, it either has a smaller antenna - or a not very good one.

    Hey, i had the same problem, have you tried with this settings ?
    Incoming Mail (POP3) Server: pop.mail.yahoo.com (port 995 SSL)
    Outgoing (SMTP) Server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com (port 465 SSL)
    Account Name/Login Name: Your Yahoo! Mail name in lowercase (your address without the "@yahoo.com"). ( in this case i put with @yahoo.com)
    it worked for my iPhone
    Hope it help
    Bye.

  • I cant get my email to work on my iphone 4

    hi, i cant get my email to work on my iphone, iv added my email address and password but when i go to mail there are no emails showing or accounts. my email is showing as on in settings but doesnt seem to be working. any advise would be great, thanks

    There is something wrong in your settings. As the settings for each email provider are different you need to check your email server's web site for instructions. Most now have specific instructions for the iPhone. Also see Apple's instructions: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1385

  • Facebook apps wont work for my iphone 4 please help

    facebook apps wont work for my iphone 4 please help

    Ok, what you have here is a basic 'blown fuse' problem.
    With the iPhone 3G and 3GS if you drop them in water and they stop working you can almost always revive the phone simply by oepning them up, finding the corrosion on the motherboard then cleaning it and putting it back together.
    With the iPhone 4 (and 4S) it's a different story though in that water damage causes a fuse on the motherboard to blow. Once blown, the phones can no longer receive power from the battery. They can however receive power from a wall charger, which is why your phone runs whilst plugged into a charger but dies as soon as it's disconnected. Trying to run it from a USB port wont work either as the 5V power supply gets interupted whilst the phone is booting, as such it dies part way through booting, and the cycle repeats. 
    At this stage you have 3 options:
    -have the phone replaced by Apple, or
    -replace the damaged fuse on the iPhone motherboard yourself, or
    -send the phone to a company to have the fuse repaired
    There is a company that sells the replacement components, and  they have an installation sevice too. I've fixed a couple of iPhones in my day, and unless you are very proficent with a soldering iron I strongly recommend having the repair done for you.
    See the link below:

    Sorry it's not good news, but at least you know what's going on with the phone now and can weigh up your options.

  • The backlight wont work on my iphone 3gs?

    the backlight wont work on my iphone 3gs?

    The only backlight issues I've heard of were from the LCD having gone bad.  They're easy to replace, and inexpensive (around 20USD) on eBay including the tools needed to do the job.  Alternativly, you can have it done at apple for ~150USD.

  • My speaker wont work on my iphone , coud i bring it to the store and get a new one ?

    my speaker wont work on my iphone and ive tried everything could i bring my phone to the store to get a new one ?

    Have you checked the silent switch on the side of the iphone?
    Have you tried turning the volume up?
    Have you tried restart?
    Have you tried reset?
    Have you tried restore?
    Have you tried restore as new?
    If all of these fail, then make an apointment at the genius bar.  If your iphone is defective and is within the warranty period, then they will replace.

  • Adobe Flash Player wont work after all steps taken, what haven't I done to make it work?

    I tried to play a game I love & I got this message: "To view this page ensure that Adobe Flash Player version 10.0.0 or greater is installed" So I went to your site to update my flash player & hit the "Test Flash Player" button & it came up
    like this^^. I went to the suggestions your site provided & went to Manage add-ons to look for Shockwave Flash Object to enable it:
    You can see that it is enabled by this picture I have provided. So it also asks me to make sure that ActiveX isn't clicked on & so I did:
    As you can see it's turned off & I even tried it the other way where it has the spot checked & it still wont play. So I decided to see if I could reinstall it onto my computer & so in turn I got this message:
    That is the message I got even after trying to delete Flash Player & reinstalling it. Now you can see my frustration with all this. Adobe Flash Player wont work after all steps taken, what haven't I done to make it work? I have a Windows 8.1 Pro, I use Internet Explorer which has the latest version on it, which is Windows Explorer 11 Version: 11.0.9600.17498 & I was also under the understanding that I also had the latest version of Adobe Flash Player on this computer as well. Can someone tell me what to do??

    First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:
    https://forums.adobe.com/thread/867968
    Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
    You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/use-compatibility-view#ie=ie-11
    If that is too inconvenient, using Google Chrome may be a preferable alternative.

    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.

    Sleep/lock button wont work on ipod touch 2g. what can i do??

    Try to connect in recovery mode and set it up again "as new ipod" : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    If this does not work, your sleep button might be damaged and you'll have to get it serviced.
