Problems with Yahoo Mail and Calendar on MacBook air. Very slow performance. Any ideas?

I have a macbook air running Apple's latest OS. My system is up-to-date. Over the last few weeks, I have had a very difficult time accessing my yahoo mail and calendar. I can access other sites, thus I know my connection is solid. The problem seems to be limited to Yahoo. I can access my yahoo account on my husband's PC without any issues. To be specific, here are the symptoms of my problem. When I try to open my yahoo mail on the Mac, I get the spinning wheel for several minutes. I view my yahoo calendar through ical. Yahoo is not connecting with ical, thus my calendar is empty. I verified my settings and they are correct. Also, sometimes after trying and retrying the calendar will connect. I checked the web and did not find any info about this problem. I appreciate your assistance.

I have been having the same issue. I can't figure it out. I have tried setting this up my yahoo calendar on my phone and my computer and my iPhone with no luck. It's definitely a Yahoo Problem. At this point I have become enemy to Yahoo Calendar.

Yahoo mail tells me to upgrade Safari but I have the latest version of Safari 6.0.1 Is there a compatibility problem with Yahoo mail and Safari?

Yahoo mail tells me to upgrade Safari but I already have the lastest version of Safari. Is there a compatability problem with the Safari 6.0.1 and the latest version of Yahoo mail?

Since Yahoo is web based email, the compatbility issue is on the Yahoo side, not Apple.
You can access your Yahoo account without having to use Safari.
Open the Mac Mail app. From the menu bar click Mail > Preferences then select the Accounts tab then the Account Information tab.
Click + to add your Yahoo account.

With Yahoo Mail, and anotare account (Inacap Mail), I can only receive mails but I can't send emails. I don't know if this is a problem of the iPad or it is a problem with yahoo mail, because using Gmail and the email of my job I don' have this problem.

Google them to confirm the settings that you need for the outgoing server, then check the setting you entered on the pad. Pay real close attention to the outgoing server name, and port. You may need to change in on the pad.

Is anyone having problems with Yahoo mail please ?

Hi,
I am having problems with yahoo mail. I have to log in and out a few times before the inbox will open. Having eventually got in, it fails to delete.
So I'm asking if others are experiencing similar problems please ?
Best regards,
dfenceman

Hi,
This problem seems intermittent. It was working OK earlier this morning but now I can't open emails, I'm getting the following error message "We’re sorry, but there appears to be a problem loading the email".
If I try forwarding the message to an alternative email address, as suggested on the Yahoo community forum, I get this error message "Yahoo Mail is having a problem retrieving the original email for reply or forward."
Has anyone got a fix, or even a workaround please ?
Can the mods help with this ?
Best regards,

On the iPad tap Settings > iCloud
Toggle Documents & Data off then back on then restart your iPad.
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button down until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
On the iMac open System Preferences > iCloud
Deselect the box next to Documents & Data then reselect it then restart your iMac.

BOB we need you urgently
Perhaps Bob will see this thread, he is the professor in these cases.
You do not use a WEP password but wpa/wpa2 on router and equipment.
All equipment connects to WiFi, but for your iPad.
Even with all other equipment WiFi off, you cannot connect your iPad.
Your iPad connects to other WiFi nets correctly.
All resets etc done on iPad and Router.
Still I am not sure it is your router for sure, frustrating...
I want to test 2 other things:
1. in your iPad, set everything OFF in Settings/Cellular, turn off/then/on your WiFi, and see whether it will still not connect...
2. If that does not do it: disconnect the router as well as the modem from the power, for 15 seconds, then reconnect the modem, let it fully start, then reconnect the routet let it fully start, turn of your WiFi in iPad, then on, and see whether it will connect.

Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Perform a Reset...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

TS3899 problems with yahoo mail

I am having trobule with yahoo mail. I contacted ATT and was told the problem was between Yahoo and apple. does anyone has any other information on how to solve the problem?

Do you see an error when trying to receive mail? If not, then it is probably a Yahoo issue. They are infamous for having problems and servers going down in the iOS Mail program. Check with them.

Problems with yahoo mail on Mail

Hello
I have configured Mail (Lion ) to get my mails from yahoo mail. It gets all my mails but the gear won't stop moving as if it is receiving mail. I have tried sending mails to myself and I get them, but it won't stop.
After a while a window opens and asks me for the password, I write it down but then again another window opens and asks for the password again and again.
I choose cancel and then nothing happens
And I'm still on the same loop.
Anyone can give me a suggestion?
Thank you

Yahoo Mail has been down for certain times yesterday and also today Tuesday June 19, 2012.
There is a website called Down for Everyone or Just Me that you can check to see if there is a disruption.
I have been having problems with Yahoo lately, also.
They are having so many problems that it is almost not worth using.
I rely on Road Runner lately.

Safari 6.0.2 problems with Yahoo Mail Classic "Compose"

Since upgrading to Mountain Lion I have had two problems using Yahoo Mail “Classic” in Safari 6.0.2 (8536.26.17).
First when composing a new message, the Formatting Toolbar is missing.
Second, contacts do not appear as I type in the To:/Cc:/Bcc: address sections of a message, nor does the address book if I click on To:/Cc:/Bcc:
All Yahoo Mail features work correctly with Firefox & Chrome, it seems as though Safari is the only browser with an issue.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Many Thanks in advance.
Mick

Others have reported the same issue:
Mountain Lion/Safari 6 doesn't work...: Apple Support Communities
There's a chance you might be able to get it to work by enabling the Develop menu in Safari's Advanced preferences, then selecting Develop > Disable Site-specific Hacks. I don't recommend it, though. Just use another browser for that site.

Problem with Mavericks Mail and Exchange 2013

Hello,
I have just updated to Mavericks a few days ago. Now I have a strange problem.
The setup with Exchange 2013 works fine ... so I can send&receive mails.
The problem: I only get new mails. All (few thausand) mails stored on the Exchange account are not synced to mail?!
Maybe anyone has an idea how to solve this ...
Thanks,
Marc

Some problems with Exchange mail have been solved by disabling Autodiscovery. If that doesn't work, see below.
Back up all data. Delete the Exchange account from the Internet Accounts preference pane and add it back. If there's still no improvement, continue.
Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
Back up all data. That means you know you can restore the Mail database, no matter what happens.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return.
A folder window will open. Inside it there should be files with names as follows:
Envelope Index
ExternalUpdates.storedata
Move those files to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have longer names that begin as above. Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
Log out and log back in. Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is damaged and that Mail has to quit. Click OK.
Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the files you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

Boot Camp problems with Windows 7, and a new Macbook Pro

When I try to install Windows 7, when the process is almost complete and Windows is finalizing all settings, the system reboots then gets stuck at the white/gray bootscreen, and then tries to boot from disk, only to repeat the bootscreen cycle indefinitely. How do I fix this? Thank you very much.

My MAC BOOK is 13 inch, first generation of unibody that I bought when it first came out last November, 2009. It seems that the latest boot camp 3.1 does not support windows7 64 bits on my mac book model. I followed Apple instruction to upgrade boot camp 3.0 when running XP 32 bits. And I then upgrade my XP 32 bits to 64 bit Windows 7. The upgrade/installation was successful but I encountered a lot of problems with the mouse and sound.
1. No sound with my new Windows 7 64 bits.
2. I managed to make Windows 7 64 bit recognize my apple mighty mouse. But the mouse does not funtion normal as expected. It does not work with swiping and scrolling.
3. I could not re-install boot camp 3.0 from windows.old nor from the Mac OS X installation disk. When I tried to run setup.exe from the MAC OS X snow leopard, I got the error "Boot camp x64 is unsupported for this model"
I am really disappointed that boot camp 3.1 is not universally supported for all mac book or mac book pro.
I need help to re-install boot camp for my Windows 7? I bought the upgrade through education upgrade program and I selected to get 64 bit version so I do not want to rollback the installation to 32 bit.
Please help.

I recently cleared my hardrive and reloaded the install software including snow leopard and now the browser is extremely slow. Any ideas

Your profile says OS 10.5.8, Snow Leopard is 10.6.
After installing Snow Leopard, did you do a software update? Apple menu / Software update ..
If you have not run it yet, do so. It will give you the highest versions of Snow Leopard and Safari. That might help.

I have owned my MacBook Pro for several months. Initially, I did not have any problems. Now I have a problem with Yahoo Mail. I can open my account, but when I try to get at my mail, 2 out of 3 times I get the spinning ball that never stops. Now what?

I have owned my MacBook Pro for several months without having any problems with it. Recently I am having trouble with my Yahoo Mail. I can open it fine, but 2 out of 3 times when I try to actually open a message, the spinning ball comes on the screen and does not stop. Sometimes, I can log out or force quit and come back in to my account and use it. Other times, I run into the same problem. Any suggestions?

No, your Yahoo account is not in iCloud (which only handles iCloud mail), it is in Yahoo, and the Yahoo mail account is on your iPad.
But the MacBook Pro will have none of it! I write this question now as I fear that I will be totally demented very soon and unable to formulate my thoughts clearly!
Get the correct settings for your account from Yahoo and set it up manually.
By the way, I also find the "password" issue problematical. It seems Apple want my Apple password rather than my eMail password. All very confusing.
That would depend on what you are trying to do.
