Trouble with Windows Mail

I am having trouble establishing linking my Verizon e-mail account to Windows Mail.  I can set up the account, but get the error 0x800CCC90 incorrect password entered every time I try to sync.  I am using the same name and password that I use to access the Verizon Yahoo account directly.  Any ideas?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Since you mention that it's a Verizon/Yahoo account, make sure that your servers are set to:
Incoming (pop3): incoming.yahoo.verizon.net
Outgoing (smtp): outgoing.yahoo.verizon.net
The normal Verizon pop servers won't work for accounts partnered with Yahoo. Hope this helps!

  • PC T'bird users having trouble with my Mail e-mail with attachments

    Lately a couple of co-workers have had bizarre troubles with e-mail I've sent them with attachments. I'm using Mail on a Mac (10.5.8), they're using Thunderbird on PCs. When I've sent them attachments ("Windows-friendly," attached at end of e-mail), they haven't been able to e-mail me via Reply . . . their font is changed to white on white. Occasionally their whole application will hang, and one person had to do a hard reboot. Only other relevant detail I have is that the mail I send them originates as Stationery, and some of the text is colored. I'm currently working to narrow down the variables, but if that "white on white" issue rings a bell immediately to anyone, I'd be very curious to hear about it.
    Mucho thanko.

    After a series of tests with the Thunderbird users, we've established the problem was not:
    Mail/Thunderbird incompatibility
    related to Mail's stationery
    related to styled text
    only because of attachments
    only because of PDF attachments
    Both users had the trouble after I forwarded PDFs to them from two different outside suppliers. So far, my theory is that there was something about those particular files. After five run-throughs where the co-workers had no problems with e-mail from me, I now want to replicate the problem, but (understandably) they're not eager to lose their work time to do it. I'll post more as I learn more.
    Thanks, BDAqua for the ideas about blank lines around the attachment.

  • How do I add a desktop link to gmail?  I have one email account as my safari home page because it has trouble with apple mail, but I want a one-click link to two other email accounts.

    How do I add a desktop link to additional email accounts?  I have one email account as my safari home page because it has trouble with apple mail, but I want a one-click link on my desktop that takes me to two other email accounts.

    Can you set up a rule in your old account to forward mail to your new account and then delete it from the old account?

  • TS3276 I have installed OS X Mavericks on macbook pro, macbook air & iMac but I am having terrible trouble with apple Mail. I need to take all accounts online frequently OR worse I have to quit mail and restart computer. Is anyone else having problems?

    I have installed OS X Mavericks on macbook pro, macbook air & iMac but I am having terrible trouble with apple Mail. I need to take all accounts online frequently OR worse I have to quit mail and restart computer. Is anyone else having problems?

    I just checked to see if the update to OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 solved any of the issues outlined in my previous post, and to my dismay, nothing has changed -- all of the previous problems persist.
    My iMac (8) -- it's renamed itself eight times since the recent troubleshoot with the Apple tech rep -- shows up as a shared device in Finder on my MacBook Pro, but when I click on it, I cannot establish a connection using "Connect As".  So I've attempted to connect using the menu "Go/Connect to Server...", using both (alternately) the iMac's name and IP address, to no avail.  I get a message which reads: "There was a problem connecting to the server 'Peter's iMac (8)'. This server may not exist or it is unavailable at this time.  Check the server name or IP address, check your network connection, and then try again."
    Here's what I know:
    The server -- Peter's iMac (8) does exist;
    The server -- Peter's iMac (8) is available at this time;
    The server name -- Peter's iMac (8) -- is correct, as specified in the system sharing preferences;
    The server IP address is correct, as specified in the system sharing preferences;
    The network connection is active when I attempt to connect.
    I'm convinced the problems stem directly from the OS X Yosemite update.  None of this was ever remotely an issue in the previous OS X's -- any of them.  This is maddening!  What can be done?  Apple?? Anyone???

  • Possible to synchronyse Iphone calendar with Window Mail calendar ?

    I am using Windows Mail (default mail software delivered with Window Vista)on my computer and would like to synchronyse Window Mail calendar with my newly acquired Iphone 4. Unfortunately, calendar synchronisation settings proposed by Itunes don't seem to recognize Windows Mail (only Outlook proposed). Is it possible to perform such synchronization with Window Mail and if yes what is the process ?
    In addition, would Outlook Express be proposed in the synchronization settings if loaded on the computer ?
    Many thank in advance for your answers.

    No.
    Syncing calendar events is supported with Outlook 2003, 2007, or 2010 along with syncing contacts and notes.
    The iPhone does not sync with Outlook Express or with the Outlook email client. The iPhone supports syncing contacts with the address book app used by Outlook Express with XP, or with the address book app used by Windows Mail with Vista and Windows 7.

  • TS1347 How do I sync with windows mail contacts with my iPhone 4S?

    How do I sync with windows mail contacts with my iPhone 4S?  I want to move my email contact information from Windows Mail to my iPhone 4S

    You don't need Outlook to sync contacts. You do have Windows Contacts available which is a supported address book application for syncing contacts with the iPhone.
    Windows Live Mail is not an email client. Windows Live Mail is an email account that can be accessed via webmail access using a browser or with an email client such as with Outlook or Windows Mail on a PC.
    You can export your Windows Live Mail contacts from your Windows Live Mail online address book for import into the Windows Contacts address book application on your PC which is supported for syncing contacts with your iPhone.

  • Hello, I have trouble with apple Mail 7 in Maverick.

    Hello! I have trouble with Apple Mail 7 in Maverick. I use account type = Exchange. The proble m is that I keep loosing email in my inbox and also in my sent box. They then have to be rebuilt, and because I have lots of emails in the server, it takes several days to rebuild. This never happened in the previous version of apple mail that I used (snow leopard). Any suggestions to fix this problem? Thanks

    Cant get help with this issue on Apple Support, so I have to go to the Apple store to the Genius Bar to get assistance.  All the help issues are so technical in their jargon, that I cannot understand how to fix the issue.

  • Having Trouble With E-mails That Involve Animation

    This is too weird. When I receive an e-mail that has animation in it it comes through freeze framed in Mail. It does not matter if it is in my .Mac account or Verizon account. Just for the heck of it I forwarded it to myself using the Verizon account and opened it in Safari. I also did the same thing with my .mac account. I opened it on the web. Bingo, I had animation. I am also having trouble with WMV's. Why can I not get any animation in Mail? Is there something I am doing wrong? any way to correct this?

    OK, from the sound of your post, you have a limited knowledge about email. Let me see if I can help. I would guess that you have a Windows machine that you have used in the past. Your email address must be a "pop" address. That means that your internet service provider has a server where your mail is sent. This is different than a web mail address, that is accessed remotely with a web browser, such as Internet Explorer, Firefox, or Safari. You must then be using an email program, such as Outlook Express, to go get the email onto your local machine. Any email program can do this. Open up the accounts tab in Outlook Express, and write down the settings. There will be one for the incoming server, and one for the outgoing server. Now, on your Mac, you can use the email program provided, such as Mac Mail, and put the settings in there. You can now send and receive to your Mac using your supplied email address. You can use another program such as Thunderbird to do this if you want. You don't have to use Mac Mail.
    Getting your old email off of the Windows computer is a bit harder, so hopefully you don't need to do that. But if you do, I can direct you on how to do that also.

  • Having trouble with e-mail

    I recently bought a macbook for college, and I am having trouble with my e-mail. I have an account on outlook express that works well, and i just wanted to know if there is any way that I could access it from this laptop.
    I am going to college and they send me important stuff, so I need that address. If it is not possible then what kind of e-mail address should i make (yahoo, etc.)

  • Trouble with e-mail

    I've noticed that I'm having trouble with my .mac/.me account in that I can't seem to send messages anymore. We haven't changed service providers or modems or routers...and it's a problem on the imac and the ibook (4 year differential in age). I've checked all my ports, etc., and I can receive mail but can't send it. Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Hi, Amy, and welcome to the Discussions.
    This forum is for old, pre-G3 Apple hardware and so probably not the best place for you question. I'd suggest you ask in the MobileMe forums. You'll be more likely to get help there. When you repost, make sure to include information about what you're using to get and send your mail; the Mail application that comes with Mac OS X, a web browser, or something else (and if so, what).
    Regards.

  • Trouble with Windows Service Pack 1 ?

    I am using
    Adobe CreatePDF, and because I am using it with a musical notation software program
    , Finale, I have to use the Adobe Desktop Printer, to convert the file
    s.  This has worked very well for a couple of months but, the other day I attempted to us
    e it and it doesn't work.  I contacted Adobe, through their online chat room and a
    fter trouble shooting my computer, the tech said that the Adobe Desktop Printer does not work
    now with Windows 7, Service Pack 1.  They are working on the problem.  Has this been addressed on the forum yet?  I'm sorry, but I couldn't find it if it has.  Anyone else having this problem.  It's really put me in a bind.  How are we to know when the issue has been addressed?
    Thanks.

    I'm sorry, in the Subject Window, I neglected the "7".  It's Windows 7, Service Pack 1.
    Thanks.

  • Sudden trouble with Apps/Mail/Notifications

    Hello everyone, I was hoping you guys might know whats up with my Touch 5 and why it's acting weird. I've had it for a about a year now and never had any real problems with it until now. Also, I'm not particularly tech-savvy, so if these problems sound like part of a more obvious problem, let me know because I probably haven't thought of it.
    Anyways, I'm having trouble with a couple of apps (Facebook and Text+), as well as the standard email app. When I open them, all I get is a sort of blank page in the style of each app (Facebook has a blue bar at the top with a blank page, text+ is just green, etc). Sometimes the apps crash and return me to my home screen, sometimes they just stay locked in that sort of "loading screen" until I exit via the home button. I thought I'd delete/re-download the apps, but when I press the "X" on the app icon, the apps just continue to shake and I can't get them to stop. The power/home buttons do nothing, I can't swipe the screen, nothing. Eventually it just goes black for a second and then reboots on the lock screen without deleting the app (so back to square one, basically). I also tried to figure it out in the app/mail area of the settings, but clicking either app/mail in the settings just makes it lock up again until I press the home button, so that's another dead end.
    The other problem I've noticed over the past day is that my notifications haven't been working as well in the apps that DO work, like twitter/KIK/snapchat. They still come through when the iPod is in sleep mode, but they usually take a minute to actually appear in the app (particularly twitter). I didn't know if this could be related to the problems I mentioned above.
    So that's it. I'm open to any sort of help you may be able to offer. I can deal without Facebook and Text+ for a while, but the Email thing is troubling, and I'm worried that this is just the start of a bigger problem of some kind. Anyways, thanks in advance for any help, I look forward to your suggestions.

  • Trouble With E-Mail Notifications

    I'm having some problems getting e-mails to my pager. I have two e-mails set up:
    [email protected]
    [email protected]
    When I test the two e-mail addresses, I receive the e-mail. However, when an alert is encountered, email is only sent to the first e-mail. I deleted the first e-mail, but I still can't get the e-mail.
    Is the a bug perhaps have trouble with ".page".
    Any thoughts would be appreciated.

  • Trouble with aim & mail

    I am having trouble getting mail to receive my aim mail. it will send mail through the aim account, but i keep getting this error messagage regarding inbound mail - There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Check the settings for account “Aim account” or try again.
    The server error encountered was: The connection to the server “imap.aim.com” on port 587 timed out.
    I just got a new macbook, after having a powerbook G4. My G4 didn't have this problem with the aim account, so I don't know what else to do.
    Does anyone have any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Noreen

    Noreen,
    Port 587 would be only valid as an Outgoing Server, and not for Incoming Servers. In Mail Preferences/Accounts/Advanced what is the name of the Incoming Server shown?
    With an IMAP account not using SSL, the Port would be expected to be 143 -- if using SSL, then Port 993.
    More info please, including where advice to attempt to use 587 for the Incoming came from?
