Problems using Mail application with my Yahoo account.

Mail has recently stopped working with my yahoo mail account. I've tried restarting the ipad and deleting the yahoo account, but neither has helped.  the error message says the user name or password aren't correct, but I've verified that my password is correct (both that I have it typed correctly and that it is correct). I can still check Yahoo thru the web, but it's not as convenient as the mail app is.  The odd thing is I have a Ymail account also (which is a yahoo product) and it is still working properly. Any way to troubleshoot this besides the usual advice of restarting the ipad and deleting the yahoo account and resetting it up?

I have just received one of these suspect (robo?) responses from Yahoo support (notice there's nothing to try):

  • Problem: Using iTunes 6 with multiple user accounts in XP

    I recently installed iTunes 6.0.0.18 as an upgrade in Windows XP Professional. After installing the software and a restart, I attempted to use iTunes with success as the Administrator. However as another user, iTunes when launched will prompt the user with the user license agreement. When the user accepts the agreement, iTunes never opens, however I have noticed that the hard drive where the music files are located is continually accessed. When logging out an "End Task" message pops up stating that Quicktime Helper Files are still being used.
    After the problem arose I attempted twice to completely uninstall iTunes, restart, cleanup the directories, reinstall, and then give all users full control permissions in both the directory structure of iTunes and the registry, with the exact same results.
    Currently I have no fix for this problem, but I suspect that it is an issue with the software (iTunes 6.0.0.18). I have since downgraded back to iTunes 5.0.1.4 and am not having any issues.

    Hello B,
    So I finally had time to download the latest version of iTunes (ver. 6.0.1.3) and install it (logged on as the Administrator account). Please note that during the install I did get an error message that stated something to the effect that "a program tried to access memory location XXXX which is "READ" only." I believe this to be the new memory lock "virus" deterrent system that Intel has recently introduced with the latest 64-bit processors and motherboards, (which I have) but I am only guessing. In any case the installer finished in the background without incident.
    After installing iTunes I launched it as the Administrator, and everything work just fine. I then logged off and logged in as my user account and attempted to run iTunes. I got the license agreement window, clicked "Accept" and nothing happened, but again I noticed that the Network card and my NAS were being accessed. I launched "services.msc" to check, as you suggested, to see if my QuickTime service had started. Much to my surprise the service was not listed. So I figured, well if there is such a service that needs to be launched then perhaps launching QuickTime would start this service, (still baffled to why the service is not listed in Windows Services). I launched QuickTime, and while leaving QuickTime open I then attempted to launch iTunes. Much to my surprise it started! I then closed both apps and have attempted to start iTunes several times since with success. A crazy fluke but, the steps listed above seemed to work for me. I can only hope that it helps others out who may be experiencing the same issue.
    So it seems that my issue has been resolved. Thank you for all your time and efforts on this matter, I do appreciate it.

  • I can't receive mail from my verizon/yahoo account on my imac running snow leopard.  I checked all settings with verizon but still have the problem

    My mail application on my imac will not download mail from my verizon/yahoo account.  I contacted verizon and confirmed my settings to be correct.  I don't get any error messages, I can send mail but I can't retrieve it from V/Y.  Connection doctor shows all connections with a green light.

    Mail/Preferences/Accounts
    Incoming Mail Server:  imap.verzon.net
    Outgoing Mail Server(SMTP):  smtp.verizon.net:your email [email protected]
    If that does not work, call Verizon for instructions.

  • Whenever I send an e-mail with my yahoo account which is also my apple ID a small icon (personal) picture is attached to the e-mail. How do I remove this picture from being attached to all of my outgoing messages?

    Everytime I send a message from my yahoo account (which is also my appleID account) a small icon picture (which is a pic of my ex-boyfriend) is attached to the e-mail heading.  I'm able to notice  I want to remove this from happening. The picture is displayed on my iphone when I open up the mail.
    Steps I take:
    1. I write an e-mail message from my yahoo account to my other .edu account on a desktop computer.
    2. I send the e-mail message from my yahoo account to my other .edu account on a desktop computer.
    3. When I open up my .edu account on my iPHONE, there is a new message from my yahoo account.
    4. Upon opening the e-mail message on my iPHONE, in the title heading it has the title of the email along with a small (upper right) picture on the iPHONE.
    Another thing that I tested was the same thing on my iPAD for text messages:
    1. I set up my text messages to my yahoo account (which is also my apple ID account)
    2. I send a text message to a person and the same small icon picture is shown on the ipad with each message that is sent
    3. The person receiving the text message does not get the small icon picture; however, on the ipad it shows this picture (WHICH NEEDS TO BE REMOVED)
    I need to determine how this icon picture is associated with both my yahoo and apple ID account. The funny thing is that I don't have this picture on any of my devices (mac, iphone, ipad). It has been completely removed from all of my technology sources. I'm thinking it has to be something to do with the origniation of my apple ID.
    PLEASE HELP ME....this picture is hurting my professionalism when I send outgoing messages.
    Thanks.

  • Can't Use "Mail" Application

    I just got a MacBook so am just starting to get my head around things. I have tried to use and set up Mail but I put in my yahoo address and password - it whirrs for a bit and then says basically yahoo may require some money for this - is this correct? Is Mail therefore redundant for yahoo account holders?

    If you have a free Yahoo! Mail account, you can't use any external email program to send or receive email with it unless you pay a fee ($20 US) per year. Considering the spam filtering and unlimited storage aspect of the service, that's very inexpensive by any standard.
    However, certain EU countries may prohibit them charging a fee for those features, or at least if your account was activated before a certain date. Send Yahoo! support an email asking about that to see whether or not you would have to pay a fee. If you're dead set against paying for services that provide value for you, Gmail is completely free.

    If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then best is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox application and save the disk image file to the desktop
    *Firefox 26.0: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    *Trash the current Firefox application (open the Applications folder in the Finder and drag the Firefox application to the Trash) to do a clean (re-)install
    *Install the new version that you have downloaded

  • Display problems in Mail messages with image attachment

    Issue: Seeing intermittent display problems in Mail messages with image attachments
    Annoyance level: minor, but Apple techs need to pass it along
    Details: Regardless of mail client sending to iPhone (Outlook, OWA, Yahoo, Gmail) there are intermittent and what appear to be random occurrances of the pic being half rendered and/or the pic never loading (followed by message saying it can't be retrieved from server). In some instances the picture then appears fully rendered without a problem. Note: Image sizes varied from 14KB to 450KB

    Hi,
    I'm not familiar with C#, but if possible try the following:
    1. Removing all thead and tbody tags from the body of the message.
    2. Changing all inline CSS to embedded CSS.
    I've seen a user said the message stopped showing up after making the changes.
    If the issue persists, please note, since Outlook 2007, Outlook opens the HTML Email and converts it to Microsoft Word format before displaying it to the user. What happens during this process is that many CSS attributes and HTML support is completely removed.
    Some of the most notable absences are background-image, and padding and margin support. Hardly can we do much about this, so the message "If there are problems with how this email is displayed, click here to view it in a web browser" is actually
    a good workaround when we face this problem.

    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.

  • "You cannot use this application with this version of OS X"

    Hi,
    I'm getting this message when I try to open .AVI files that I uploaded from my digital camera, but I'm posting it here instead of in the Quicktime section because I believe that the cause of the problem is more general. When researching this problem, I looked at the info panel for these .AVI files, and the app listed to open them was "Quicktime Player (default) (7.1.3)". But the actual version of Quicktime that I have installed is version 7.4. If I set the file's "Open With" app to be "Quicktime 7.4", it opens fine, but the "Open With" app reverts back to "Quicktime Player (default) (7.1.3)", making the problem come back. I've also noticed that if I right-click on other apps (a PDF file, for example), and choose "Open With" from the popup menu, that I see other versions of apps that no longer exist on my machine (Safari 2.0.4, for example). I think that files associated with these older app versions may be the cause of many of the "You cannot use this application with this version of OS X" issues that have been reported here. My question is where is this list of "installed" products maintained in OS X, and is there a way that I can edit it to remove those product versions that no longer exist on my system. In my particular instance, I'd like to remove "Quicktime 7.1.3" which should allow me to set the associated app for my .AVI files to be Quicktime 7.4 with no possibility of the association reverting to an earlier version that's not only incompatible with Leopard, but also not installed on my system.
    Thanks,
    Ken

    When you associate a file with an application, are you then clicking the "Change All" button? You can rebuild the LaunchServices database. Evidently the location of the command and the database have changed slightly in Leopard from what they were in Tiger. See this thread for the updated instructions:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5730491
    Also, make sure you don't have the old applications archived somewhere. I've been astonished in the past at just how enterprising the system can be in finding some program squirreled away in an obscure backup folder and listing it as an option to open something.

  • Multiple mailboxes when using mail.app with google in IMAP.

    Hello,
    I have just started using mail.app with IMAP and my google mail account appears to be in two place. The mail.app has the following interface in the left pane.
    MAILBOXES, REMINDERS, RSS and GMAIL all in grey. Below the MAILBOXES i have got the following folders, inbox, sent and trash and below the GMAIL, i have got a replication of the structure in my google account.
    which set of folders should i be using?
    when i deleet the mail in the MAILBOXES it does not seem to delete it in All Mail folder under GMAIL.
    IS the synchronisation between the mails in the mail.app and the google server on a periodic basis. can i force the synchronisation?

    Mail works fine with Exchange 2003. This is how our accounts are configured:
    Incoming Mail Server:your exchange server.domain.com.au
    eg. server2.bunnings.com.au
    Username: domain\User alias\Full username
    eg. bunnings\bobs\bob.smith
    SMTP: smtp.bunnings.com.au
    Web Access Server: webmail.bunnings.com.au
    You can then setup the LDAP options under the composing tab to get the email list from your Exchange server.
    And no i do not work for Bunnings!
    Good Luck!

    "regedit.exe" with elevated account "A", but the content of regedit.exe is pure back. screenshot as below:
    Can anyone help me on this?

    You code is not dealing with the DACL access to Winsta0\Default.  Only the LocalSystem account will have full access and the interactively logged on user which is why regedit is not displaying properly.  You'll need to grant access to your user. 
    You also need to deal with UAC since that code is going to give you a non-elevated token via LogonUser().  You need to get the full token via a call to GetTokenInformation() + TokenLinkedToken.
    thanks

  • How can I use an iPad with two itunes accounts?

    How can I use an iPad with two itunes accounts?
    Hi there
    My partner has a works iPad, which has her works Apps on (ones that are specifically made by her company and are NOT available in the App store).
    What I want to be able to do is to ALSO have my itunes account on there so that I can put all the apps I have purchased previously from my iPhone on it.
    This is so I can put on VLC player (thats already in my itunes account) so I can add videos to the iPad.
    How do I do this please?
    I tried it before by connecting it to my mac, but it wiped everything off the iPad completely and also deleted the data settings for using 3G.
    So I want to avoid this happening again the future as it had to be sent back to her head office to be sorted again.
    Any advise please?
    Thanks

    You can't. The iPad is desgined to be a 'one user' device and only really works with one apple ID at a time.
    The only way would be if she, at work and with her work apple id, downloaded your apps (repurchasing them of course).
    It's not meant to be a multiple user/multiple ID device.

  • How can I use mail merge with numbers in the new pages version?

    I am trying to use mail merge with the new version of pages and can not seem to be able to figure it out. PLEASE HELP!!!

    Nope. Version 5 is a fashion accessory: it looks like software, but it doesn;t actually do anything. Sort of like a sports car with a lawn-mower engine. Looks snzzy. Doesn't really work. (And given how buggy it is, I should further specifiy that the lawn-mower engine comes with a blade: it chews up your old templates, produces files that cannot be sent as email attahcments [yes, really], and—this just in—doesn;t play well with the new SMB facility of Mavericks. In short, as one reviewer put it, "un unmitigated disaster."

  • Problem using SQL Loader with ODI

    Hi,
    I am having problems using SQL Loader with ODI. I am trying to fill an oracle table with data from a txt file. At first I had used "File to SQL" LKM, but due to the size of the source txt file (700MB), I decided to use "File to Oracle (SQLLDR)" LKM.
    The error that appears in myFile.txt.log is: "SQL*Loader-101: Invalid argument for username/password"
    I think that the problem could be in the definition of the data server (Physical architecutre in topology), because I have left blank Host, user and password.
    Is this the problem? What host and user should I use? With "File to SQL" works fine living this blank, but takes to much time.
    Thanks in advance
