Suddenly can no longer receive Yahoo IMAP in Mail
I have suddenly become unable to receive Yahoo IMAP mail in my Mail client in Yosemite on my MacBook Pro (13" Early 2011).
I can send mail, but not receive it. I suspect a problem on the Apple/OS X side, because my iOS devices are still receiving Yahoo IMAP mail.
I tried deleting and re-adding my Yahoo account. Now, not only can't I receive mail, I can't see any mail in my Inbox! Yet, I can see all my Yahoo folders and their contents while using Mail.
Hello Paul,
Thank you for participating in the Apple Support Communities.
It does seem like you're encountering an issue with email that's isolated to your Yahoo IMAP account in Mac OS X.
For a situation like this, start with the troubleshooting tips in the section of this article called "Mail Connection Doctor shows one or more red dots in the account Status column:"
OS X Mail: Troubleshooting sending and receiving email messages
This article contains a variety of steps that can help resolve an issue like the one you're seeing.
All the best,
Jeremy

Safari is apparently frozen. I can no longer receive or send e-mail on Safari, nor search using Bing. When URL's are typed in and entered, there is no response. Obviously, I can still use Firefox for these needs, but how do I get Safari back to work?
I have the same issue - it worked once, then the error pop-ups keep coming asking for the same darn password I gave it and saved 100 times before. Anyone else find a solution? I use my earthlink for outgoing and that works but would rather use godaddy since I pay for it.

I can no longer receive or send email via my Yahoo account from my iphone6. I've downloaded several "help guides" from the internet, deleted and re-added the account via imap settings. Nothing seems to work. Any ideas?
Use the yahoo app if available?

I want to update iCloud account with new apple id but don't know password for old apple id. Plus can no longer receive email at old apple id. How can I delete the current iCloud account on my iPhone if the previously stated conditions exist?
If the old ID is yours, and if it is an earlier version of your current ID, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

I can no longer receive my emails from the icloud to my mac even though it has been doing it fine since I moved to the icloud a number of weeks now. I only get my mail if I log into icloud or I get it on my phone, it is not synching to my iMac. Can someone assist please.
Thanks
DonI tried something similar by adding a new mail account doing the apple id etc but it worked in that it would look for mail but no mail would come even though mail still goes to my phone I was loath to delete my original account just in case the new one did not work as well. So I guess I am a little stuck now.. I hope you can help me to sort it out.

TS3276 after 10.6.8 update I can no longer receive email
I can no longer receive email after 10.6.8 update. I also just moved to iCloud. Can anyone help me?
What changed, before you could no longer save image attachments to iPhoto?
Did you install new software or upgrade to newer versions? Which version of iPhoto are you using?
The "Save to iPhoto" feature has been missing for some iPhoto versions. I do not remember exactly when it vanished, but it is back with iPhoto 9,6 and MacOS X 10.10.2.
As a work-around - you can drag photo attacuments from your mail to the iPhoto icon in the Dock to save them to iPhoto. -
Ever since I enabled iMessage on my Mac Airbook, I can no longer receive text messages from the iMessage people on my iPhone, only on my iMessage now!! How do I get the messages to reach both iMessage and iPhone??
We are suffering very similar issues when communicating from my iphone to a friend who has both iphone and iPad enabled.
As long as I reply to an existing text chain, then it is visible on the target iphone. If I SMS the phone number, it gets routed to the IPAD!! And NO, I should not have to disable imessage when I want to send an SMS!! -
I can no longer receive e-mail messages through my @mac/@me account, though I still seem to be able to send messages. I believe there may have been recent attempts to hack into my Mail account (my LinkedIn and Facebook accounts were both hacked three days ago and a scam/phishing message sent to my contacts, and I know there was at least an attempt made to hack into one of my e-mail accounts). I have already changed my Apple password, but how do I start receiving mail again?
(And I should also say that I'm a little surprised there was no alert from Apple of suspicious activity on my account, if such was the case. Instead, when I logged into my account via Mobile Me three days ago I noticed that all messages in my inbox were gone as well as all of my contacts. I assume this was related to the current problem.)
Thanks for all responses.The problem has been solved with the help of a MobileMe online counsellor. My MobileMe account had in fact been hacked into and the fraudster had been redirecting my e-mail messages to a phony account that he controlled. We took the forward off and reset all my passwords and security questions, which solved the immediate problem.

I can no longer receive short videos in iMessage after downloading iOs7 on my iPhone 4 it says "Downloading", only 4.3MB in size
I had the same problem today and was able to resolve it without having to do a restore or reset. The problem had something to do with my mail accounts. The upgrade reset my mail settings, switching both my gmail and my .mac mail to "archive all mail". I went into the General Settings, disabled that setting, and resynced the phone. The "other" storage allottment dropped back down to less than a gig.
Before you restore or reset, I would try that first. -
