New iPhone 4 won't activate Yahoo account

I am having difficulty activating my Yahoo account on a new iPhone4. There is no trouble activating my .mac account. After typing in a user name and password in the Yahoo section and hitting Done, a window pops up stating Verification Required, log onto your Yahoo account at www.yahoo.com
When I do this, still no activation of my Yahoo account on my iPhone. When returning to account info page, I notice that my password is always deleted. Now tried dozens of times with no luck. Any ideas out there?

Did you try these help articles?

    Take it back where you got and and get your money back.
    As has been pointed out, if there was a "previous owner", the phone is not "new". Thephone you purchased is most likely stolen. If whoever you bought it from won't give you your money back, turn it over to the police.

    ?? iphone 5 won't activate w/itunes, wants itunes 10.7 which won't install on my IMAC (OS10.5.8)

    Yes... the iPhone 5 on iOS 6 requires iTunes 10.7 which in turn requires OS X 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) or later...
    Check that your Mac meets the System Requirements for Snow Leopard...

  • New Iphone 4s won't sync, can't get past 'syncing calendars step 2 of 6'???

    New Iphone 4s won't sync off my computer, can't get past 'syncing calendars step 2 of 6'.  Got 1/3 of old apps, and contacts, but a 2/3 of my old apps are on the computer....  not real computer savvy, any suggestions?

    no no a hard reset is just something you do to the phone, you wont lose any data or anything else its litterally like starting your phone on a fresh slate running wise but you wont lose anything at all, all your apps settings etc will still be right as you left it. think of it as a step above turning it off and on again

  • New iPhone 4s won't connect to internet

    New iPhone 4s won't connect to internet beyond my home wi fi. How can I correct this? I need internet where I go.

    I've got exactly the same problem.
    Upgraded to iOS7 all was fine. 
    It then prompted me to upgrade to 7.0.2 and now my iPhone 4s won't connect to Internet anymore.
    There was also a carrier settings update that I accepted which could have broken things.
    I've tried different APN settings but it still won't connect for me :-(
    Tried a Reset Network Setting, and the problem is the same.

  • 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.

  • IPhone cannot send email using Yahoo account. iPhone no envia correo Yahoo.

    Hi Everyone,
    I just got my iPhone from Movistar Venezuela and I've found I'm unable to send email using my Yahoo account. However, I can receive Yahoo email just fine (paid $20 for Mail Plus subscription), my GMail account can send and receive perfectly, and I can go surfin' Safari with no problems too.
    The error message I get is "Cannot send mail: an error occurred while delivering this message". I called Movistar Customer Support and they said everything was fine on their end...
    In typical Apple fashion, the error message is so simple I have no idea where the problem is. Does anyone know how can I get more information and how to solve this annoying problem? My Yahoo account is actually my primary account...
    Thanks in advance!
    Saludos a todos,
    Acabo de comprarme un iPhone de Movistar en Venezuela y me encuentro sin poder enviar emails con mi cuenta Yahoo. Sin embargo, si puedo recibir correo Yahoo bien (pague $20 por mi suscripcion a Mail Plus), mi cuenta de GMail si puede enviar y recibir email sin problema y puedo navergar con Safari sin ningun problema.
    El mensaje de error que recibo es el siguiente": "No se puede enviar correo: se ha producido un error al enviar el mensaje". Llame a Atencion al Cliente de Movistar y me dijeron que no habia ningun problema con mi linea o con su servicio de datos...
    Como tipica cosa Apple, el mensaje de error es tan simple que no tengo NI IDEA de cual es el problema. Alguien mas ha sufrido este problema? Sabe alguien como puedo obtener mas informacion de este error y como solucionarlo? Lamentablemente, mi cuenta Yahoo es mi correo principal...
    Gracias de antemano!

    Creo que resolvi el problema, temporalmente.

    2) Vuelvela a crear

  • Droid Bionic won't add yahoo account

    My yahoo email account mysteriously stopped syncing to my Droid Bionic after my son downloaded a game. 
    I deleted the yahoo account and tried to re-add it but it won't add.....suggestions?

    My yahoo mail (using the Bionic acct set up) had been working fine until...  had to change my password (account got hacked).  Once I did that, I couldn't make it work no matter what.  Deleted account and tried to add new acct.  Tried manually adding account.  Finally gave up with that and downloaded the yahoo mail app from the app store and that worked flawlessly.  Only issue is that I had to add yet another shortcut to my desktop to be able to quickly access yahoo mail.  So what is wrong with the bionic account set up?? 

  • 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.
