Reminders linked to yahoo! email account: Why?

Why did my Reminders app link to my YMail account automatically? How do I change this? Is this an issue for all iOS5 iPhone users?
The iPhone Reminders and the pull down menu are so beautiful, I'm just trying to make them perfect, so thanks for any insights!

Reminders are automatically entered in the iPhone Calendar App. If you're syncing the calendar with Yahoo calendar, the entries will be transferred. To avoid this:
Settings > Mail..... > your Yahoo account > Calendars > OFF

I'm unable to access my yahoo email account using updated firefox browser, i keep getting error page when I use the mail link on yahoo pages

Since updating Firefox browser, i am unable to gain access to my yahoo email account. I can access the email with Interent Explorer with no trouble. Whenever I click on a mail link on the yahoo sites to check my mail, I get rerouted to an error page ..... "Sorry, we can't find "ca.mg4.mail.yahoo.com/dc/launch?.gx=1". Please check the spelling of the web address." is what is said at top of page whenever I click on any mail links.

This is how I fixed it on my new iPhone 5S. Using the standard yahoo setting on my phone.
You will have to access "managing your app passwords" on your account profile for yahoo. Generate password for your app. For example: "My iPhone 5S'
Go to your Iphone and set up your yahoo mail account on your phone the normal way and you have to use the generated password. instead of the yahoo account password.

Yahoo email account on iphone 4s error message MFMessageError Domain error 1032 keeps coming up trying to log into my email. Why does this happen?

I'm trying to log in to my yahoo email account on iphone 4s and the error message MFMessage Domain error 1032 keeps on coming up. Why is this happening and how can I fix it?

What worked for me was resetting my password on my email then rebooted my iPhone 4S.

Open Mail preferences and delete the account. This only removes it from the Mail app and doesn't close out the service.

My BT Yahoo Email Account has been hacked again

Since I started to pay £1.60 a month for my BT Yahoo Email account (a few months ago), I have been inundated in spam (I received 33 so far today) and I am careful who I give my email address to! AND today I have received messages from the Mail Delivery System saying they could not deliver messages which I have NOT sent! Someone has hacked my account again, now I think the fourth time this has happened and sent spam to all my contacts, but the messages do NOT show up in the sent folder. When this has happened in the past I have changed all my security information but it does not stop this from happeneing so:
1) How or why is this happening? It has never happened with my hotmail accounts.
2) How can I stop it, short of deleting my account?
3) How can I get hold of someone at BT to report these problems and make a complaint - on live chat they just tell me to ring an 0808 number, can't I email someone?
Many thanks for any help you can offer.

Your account has more than likely not been hacked again. If it was previously hacked, when Yahoo had its systems hacked, your email address and all your email contacts would have been harvested by the hackers. This means that they can send spam emails to your contacts anytime they wish without having to hack your account.
They will have spoofed your email address so that the emails appear to be coming from your account. This is to fool your contacts in to thinking the emails are from you and are safe to open. When the emails are not delivered they will be returned to your email address hence the Mail Delivery Sytem returns..
There is nothing you can do other than to stop using that email address and tell all your contacts to treat any emails from it as spam and to delete them.
See links about spoofing email addresses.

Problems with my yahoo email account using Firefox

I am using Firefox 14.0.1 and I have problems with my yahoo email account. I send an email, the receiver got a good version of my email, but when I see the same email into my sent box I see a differente text. When I use any other Internet browser, I can see a good version of my original email into the sent box.
Why???

Android Phone and Verizon-Yahoo Email account

I've had my Verizon-Yahoo email account as my default email on my Android phone for nearly
2 years. Suddenly, it does not sync with my actual email anymore and I cannot retrieve newly
sent email to me.
What happened?
I deleted my Verizon-Yahoo email account thinking I could readd it without issue and now it
won't add it. So, I am without my regular, most used email address on my mobile phone.
How do I fix this problem step by step and what happened in the first place.
If I canot retrieve my email there is no need for data. I need it for college classes and work,
as well as other business uses.
Can someone help me?
In addition, I have been receiving ALOT of SPAM on my regular Verizon-Yahoo email over the
past 6-12 months and I don't understand why. How do I fix that. I keep sending these adult ads
and other SPAM to the SPAM folders but it keeps coming back!! Is someone signing me up
for this stuff and how do i stop t from happening?
Thank you for your assistance in advance.
Blue.

Hi:
I experience the same problem when I downloaded systems updates on my Android Bionic phone, I was not able to sync my Verizon Yahoo email account. I went through the same steps and nothing worked, until one savvy Verizon Wireless IT support agent told me to download the Yahoo Mail App on to my phone and that solved my problem instantly. I logged in using my Verizon.net username and password and have been able to access my email with no problems ever since and have also updated my Yahoo Mail App and all works beautifully.

Cannot attach files to Yahoo email account since new Safari installed

Hello. I don’t know why, but since I installed the new Safari update, I’ve been having trouble attaching files to my Yahoo email account. The entire Safari just sort of freezes. I can’t even click on anything.
Another minor but irritating problem since the installment: sometime video clips cannot be played (like on Youtube). I would have to quit and reopen to get to usual condition.
Anyone know how to solve these problems? Thanks!

HI,
The problem is BrowserPlus. It's not compatible with Safari 5.
Instructions for uninstalling BrowserPlus here. http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/browserplus/uninstall.html
If you don't want to do that, you revert to the previous version of Safari, instructions here.

Then update to Safari 5 at a later date.

Can not attach photos using Yahoo email account

I am new to the Mac OPS and maybe it is just something that I do not know, but why can't I attach photos to an email using my Yahoo email account? I have read the way to change the preference of email providers, ie: entourage or mac mail. But I have neither accounts. I was just wondering if there was a way to do this, or if the program could be updated so that it could be possible.

Yahoo email is a service not an application. If you have the Pro version of this service then you can set it to work with one of the applications in the iPhoto preferences. Otherwise you'll need to use one of these:
There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
For 10.5 users: You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Apple-Click for selecting multiple pics.
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. If you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2GMail
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto. With 10.5 you can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
Or, if you want to access the files with iPhoto not running, then create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use THIS
Other options include:
1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

I cannot logoff from yahoo email account in the Firefox Browser. I have installed another browser and can successfully logoff. Do you have a fix so I can continue using Firefox?

I have tried several times to reboot but when I logon to Firefox then to my Yahoo email account it will not let me logoff. I have installed a different web browser and my yahoo email account works fine including a successful logoff. Help!

That problem can be caused by the Yahoo! Toolbar that extents too much downwards and covers the top part of the browser window and thus makes links in that part of the screen not clickable.

Original non BT Yahoo email account

I've just come on to BT Broadband over the last couple of days and although I could access my non BT Yahoo email account yesterday I cannot today. I see there is something about SMTP verification - is that what I need to do? Or do I need to access via Outlook Express - which at the moment is downloading only my (disconnected but still live) ntlworld emails! Can I in all this preserve my inboxes, folders and files, and address books from both the Yahoo and current Outlook Express accounts?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Thanks for reply - sorry I didn't realise it was one when I got it in my mailbox (but that's another matter!) I don't think I explained myself well. I did in fact find my original Yahoo account in the end but I can only find it if I close BT Yahoo down and go to the www.yahoo.co.uk site (ie if I try to put this address in while I have BT Yahoo up I cannot get it).
Apologies if it sounds like I'm being awkward - I'm not - but "I cannot get it" doesn't give much to go on!
Why not ? What happens ?
I find that, with a BTYahoo window open and signed in, if I open another tab and go to yahoo.co.uk I'm logged in as my BTY persona. Signing out of that, and logging in again with a yahoo ID gets me a page where I'm signed in with my Yahoo credentials.
Doe that help ?
I don't have Yahoo or BT Yahoo downloading to my Outlook Express only my old ntlworld account which is still operative in my previous home (where family still use it) so presumably I can continue to get these although I cannot reply so of course I'm in the process of letting all contacts/subscriptions know.
I'm not sure if you're referring to Yahoo, BTYahoo or NTLworld...
What I would like to do is have all 3 email accounts downloading to OE but could I do this without losing any of the archives/address books?
OE could, I think, be setup to deal with all 3, yes (but I don't use OE, so I can't be specific as to exactly what you'd need to do) and leave your archives and address books alone.
I say "OE could, I think, be setup to deal with all 3". What I really mean is that it's possible - if OE can't do it, there are certainly other mail clients that can.
And could I reply to both Yahoo and BT emails?
Yes - it'll require some setting up, which I can't help you with.
Or would I be better just to have BT as an email account (preferable) but how would I do this without losing the other two accounts' files/folders/contacts?
The BT/Yahoo mail servers don't do IMAP, so you won't be able to sync. folders, contacts etc with OE, but they should still be usable via the webmail interface.
BTY can be configured to fetch email from other accounts - would that be of any help ?

How do I go back a page on the Ipad mini? I do not see any arrows anywhere. Also when I go to my yahoo email account and open an email I can not find how to go back and log out. This is our first Ipad and it is very different frm android. Thanks

We just purchased our first Ipad. It is a mini with retina display 16 GB. How do I go back a page? I see no arrows to page back. Also when I log into a yahoo email account and open an email I see now way to log out? Thank you for any help

In Safari, (the web browser), there are specific arrows to go back and forward through website pages.
In other Apps, it will depend on how the App is built.
As to Yahoo Mai it depends on where you are viewing the email. If you are using the Mail App, then you don't log out. The Mail accounts in the Mail App are always there.
If you are using the Yahoo App, You can Tap on the folder at the top, then on your account/name, and then on Sign Out.

IPhone 5 no longer receive emails, but can still send emails with yahoo email account. Any ideas to fix?

iPhone 5 with iOS 8.1.2 stopped receiving mail yesterday. Have yahoo email account. Can still send emails. Have turned device off/on. Have done the dual off/on thing using top button and menu button. Issue seems to be only with main inbox, as sub folders are receiving mail. Other Apple device is not having issues like this, just on iPhone.

Your issue is with the Yahoo email account which is notoriously bad.
you can try deleting and reinstalling the email account.
If that doesn't fix it try the yahoo email app.

I can no longer open links from my email account into safari, how can I fix this?

I can no longer open links from my email account into safari, on my iphone 4.

Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPhone?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds).
No data will be lost.
