Ovi Mail, I can log in, but keep getting asked to ...

I'm at the end of my tether here, Nokia keep refering me to Yahoo and Yahoo keep refering me to Nokia, what a shambles.
As you can plainly see, because I can write this post I'm logged in. Now when I try and access my inbox all I get is a Yahoo! sign in box asking me to verify my password after briefly, for a split second seeing my inbox. I verify the correct password, and once again I see my inbox breifly before I get taken back to the Yahoo! verify password box. This box shows my *******@ovi.com email addy (starred out characters is my username - obviously) and just asks for my password.
Fortunately I can still access my email through Yahoo's mobile site on my phone and the PC, which seems a little bizarre. 
I don't want to delete my .ovi account and start again, I've had it for donkeys years, it is known by all who know me and I'm rather attached to it. However my faith in Nokia and Yahoo! are being severly tested by this issue that has taken up far too much of my spare time in the past few weeks. Please help,I'm currently waiting for Nokia's latest annoydyne response, after finally being able to get in here with the help of a Yahoo! person on their chat facility.
I enclose a screen shot of the very annoying 'log in box" box that reappears time after time, I know it has my email addy clearly in view TBH I don't care I just want this sorting so I have provided all the information I can.
Solved!

I've done that svi78, and to be fair I had a lengthy chat with a Nokia person when they called me back. 
I provided my email address and password (I was at the end of my tether, and there's nothing sensitive about my .ovi.com addy so I gave access to my account). They tried it and said everyrthing is working OK he even asked for my permission to read an (oviously) spam email aloud to me to prove it was working, and now because it worked for them they feel they cannot help any more and the case is closed.
I can still only access my Ovi mail through uk.m.yahoo.com/
Yahoo's! mobile site. I can do this via PC, any PC but out of the six PC's I've tried all with different isps I still get stuck in a feed back loop on any desktop Nokia or yahoo! site when I try to access my mail, and this is also true of my phone's web browser. It's a complete mystery. As I say I get a Yahoo! "Please verify your password" box, I verify, see my Nokia/ovi mail in box for around half a second before being taken back to the Yahoo "Please verify your password" page and box. 
I and they (Nokia) donot understand why I am having this issue and seeing they can't repeat it (I wish I couldn't ! LOL) case closed.

  • I'm trying to add another mail account to T-bird but keep getting an "Incoming server already exists" error.

    T-bird was hanging when trying to get email from my elitemail.org account (sub-domain of Fastmail.fm) so I tried deleting the account and starting over. I "thought" I cleaned out all instances of the incoming/outgoing servers and passwords, but apparently there's still a file that is hanging on to them somewhere. Before doing anything though, I 'did' .tar.bz2 the .thunderbird dir so I wouldn't lose any mail. Heck, I even went so far (after getting the above error the first time) of removing T-bird from the system, and deleting the .thunderbird dir! So I'm still getting the error, even on what is effectively a new install. What I want to know is, what file do I need to edit or delete (even AFTER backing up then deleting the .thunderbird dir) so Thunderbird really IS starting from scratch? Migrating my old email dirs is easy - but apparently getting rid of the mail servers takes an act of Congress.
    Running Thunderbird 3.1.9 on Salix 13.37.

    As far as Thunderbird is concerned, you can keep the profile (and any existing mail in that profile.
    In any case, it should work with a new profile. Deleting the .thunderbird directory would cause Thunderbird to create a new profile when starting the next time. It would then come up empty, and you'll need to create an account again.
    Is this what you did?

  • I want to move Lightroom 5 (stand-alone) to a new PC but keep getting asked to purchase a CC subscription (I have Photoshop on CC already).

    Here is the thing:
    I have a subscription to CC, Photoshop CC.
    I have a full version of Lightroom which is NOT the CC version.
    I would like to now move Lightroom to my new PC. I downloaded Lightroom but it will not accept my original serial number.
    Instead, I get asked to sign up for a CC subscription containing Lightroom and Photoshop, the latter I have already.
    Thank you in advance and greetings from Cambodia,

  • One free month, but keep getting asked to top up

    I have same problem too, my free month subscription is not working. i reveived an email that it has been activated. However I can't call. it says you need to top up first. 
    Also the email which I received  it says that 
    We have stored your payment method and you will be charged each time your subscription automatically renews until you cancel. 
    May I know how much this would be?  It is based on free month total calls? Please explain. 
    thanks

  • Trying to download an app but keep getting asked to accept new terms even though I just accepted them and won't stop

    Continuous loop

    Rather than a "bug" - it appears to be some bizarre issue with the Apple servers that has been going on for a few days now. Users have had a few different issues with the App Store and a couple of them seem to have been fixed, but now this issue has cropped in the last couple of days.
    No matter what we call this - it is not a necessary procedure, it's just fluke thing that needs to be addressed by Apple. This is not normal protocol for downloading apps from the App Store.

  • Verified new email address on Apple ID, but keep getting asked for password for old address

    Months ago, I changed my Apple ID to reflect my new email address.  I received and verified the new address and deleted the old one from my Apple ID account page.  When I log in, there is no mention of my old address, and my new email address is recorded as the primary one.  However whenever I am asked for my Apple ID when I try to change or buy anything, the email address that comes up is my old one.  Needless to say no password I enter works, so there are many things that I'm currently unable to do.  This is driving me nuts.  Any ideas, please?

    Did you change the email address used in your existing Apple ID or did you create a new Apple ID with the new email address?
    Content and Apple IDs -
    Content is forever tied to the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple ID to another. Apple does not merge Apple IDs. You will never be able to access your content bought with one Apple ID with a new Apple ID.

  • Trying to log into firefox but keep getting firefox is in offline mode and can't browse the web, I've unchecked the work offline in the file menu but still get error message...

    trying to log into firefox but keep getting firefox is in offline mode and can't browse the web, I've unchecked the work offline in the file menu but still get error message...

    The work offline option can be found from Firefox button -> Web developer or from the menubar toolbar -> Work offline (Or at least thats what happens in Windows).
    Have you any other reason for being offline; router off, firefox not dialing up or whatever. Or is security software or a firewall blocking firefox, or a network connection, or firefox setting etc set wrongly.

  • Logging off but keeping programs running?

    Wasnt sure if this is the right category to post this question, but here goes;
    My girlfriend likes to leave her AIM running all the time even when I need to use the computer so I log off of her username and onto mine and of course all her programs quit. I know I have seen Macs log off but keep the programs running, how do I do this?

    You can only do this if you're running OS X 10.3 or greater, using Fast User Switching. If your profile is correct, you're still running 10.2.x so this won't work unless you upgrade to 10.3.9.

    Hi, can someone help please - my iPhone hasn't been backed up since early August, now I can't seem to get it to back up to iCloud. I have 9GB of space, I have left it plugged in etc for 11hrs, but keep getting the same message " iPhone backup could not be completed" -what dies that mean.?

    Hi,
    I was facing issues with both backup and FB integration after the iOs 6 upgrade.  Before then I did not have any issues with the iCloud backup service, but after a few days, I noticed that it was continually stuck at the Estimating time for the backup and it never progressed.
    As any good techie would, I tackled the most pressing issue first . . . FB integration of course.
    I had read in a separate post about this solution so tried it . . .
    I deleted the original FB app and hard booted the phone.  I then went into settings and entered the data for FB integration.  Seconds later, I received a text message to my phone - already listed and verified in FB with a 6 digit code to re-enter instead of my password.  Seconds later I was verified and then prompted to download the FB app.  All backup and integrated.
    Then I went into the iCloud backup, turned it off . . . and deleted the last backup.  I then re-enabled backup . . . and although I thought I was going to face the same issue, after a few minutes, it moved on from Estimating time . . . to actually backing up.  It is now a small way through the backup and seems to estimate that it will take another two hours to complete.
    A good nights work.  Backup and integration all sewed up.  Good luck.
    Cheers
    Ian

    I am trying to export an Ai file as a dxf - but keep getting a PARM error. What can i do?

    You can't import MPEG-2 files directly to FCP X.
    Can you play this file in Quicktime Player? If so, then you can use the free program MPEG Streamclip to convert this to Quicktime. Use the ProRes codec.
