Unable to set up Yahoo email on Samsung Galaxy S4

It says my ID and password are incorrect, even though they are and work on my PC. I receive this message when trying to use the manual set up - "unable to connect to server (-ERR [AUTH](#mbr1212) Incorrect username or password." I've tried every help topic available from Yahoo (POP server settings) and nothing works. Anyone got any tips?

Are you using the Yahoo built in set up when yo try to set it up?  If not then try that. And if you are using that one, try setting it up as an OTHER account and manually typing in the settings.

  • Setting up yahoo email on Nokia 6500 Slide??

    Hi Guys
    Well after going into various shops and looking at forums and being told you cant set up yahoo email on phone unless you buy the yahoo premium package i was overjoyed i found the settings at http://europe.nokia.com/A4144889
    I get my yahoo emails appear in my email inbox on my phone ive setup. When i want to delete them i click on delete from phone. The email stays there but says deleted from phone underneath, but hasnt gone. Does anyone know how i can get rid of it totally from my phone but keep it on my email server??
    Also i want to set up another one (i have 2 yahoo accounts)
    On the settings you get sent to your phone from the website above it says choose email provider so i choose Yahoo UK. It then creates 2 inboxs on my phone both called Yahoo UK. I cant find an option on the phone to change the name Yahoo UK
    Any ideas??

  • Unable to set up iCloud email on iPhone with apple id as a yahoo email?

    I set up my wife's iPhone with the new iOS 5 software. Her apple id is a yahoo email address. I also set up a @me.com email address for her and merged it from MobileMe to iCloud. However, I am now unable to have her phone set up with the new @me.com address and I am unable to change her Apple ID from the yahoo address to the @me.com.

    Its really straight forward.  My Galaxy s5 started at 4.4.4 and now is at lollipop 5.0. 
    You are talking to fellow users and ones using residential products.  IF you are a Verizon Wireless user you might do better to ask there.  https://community.verizonwireless.com/welcome
    You may have been caught be the recent retirement of some of the old servers rather than the upgrade to 4.4.4.‎
    Triple check your email configuration
    http://www.verizon.com/emailsettings
    if not using Verizon/yahoo email
    outgoing smtp.verizon.net port 465 SSL plain txt passwords
    incoming pop.verizon.net port 995 ssl plain text passwords.
    Not if you happen to use the Yahoo interface to Verizon email its
    outgoing outgoing.yahoo.verizon.net port 465 SSL plain txt passwords
    incoming incoming.yahoo.verizon.net port 995 ssl plain text passwords.
    Someone recently posted a step by step for android in another thread.  If you can't get yours to work, you might want to search this forum for it.

  • 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.

  • Unable to set up 'Other' email account

    Previously set up office email account with no problems. Received email from Blackberry over two weeks ago that emails may be delayed or not received etc. Waited for a week but still didn't receive emails, resent service book but nothing happened. Deleted email details and tried to reinstall but this didn't work. I enter email address and password and it fails everytime. As the email address is associated with outlook I was previsouly asked for the server details, user name etc but I cannot find this screen anywhere. I'm going round in circles, my provider o2 is unable to help, my web access provider is unable to resolve issue and when I telephoned Blackberry they were most unhelpful.  I do not know why this has happened when it had been working successfully for over two years. Can anyone help please?

    What error message? What settings?
    Possibilities:
    By default, Mail assumes you want to connect via SSL (secure); not all mail servers support that.
    Many smtp servers won't accept connection except from their own domain. So if you're on a 3G network and you're setting up smtp with another ISP, their server might not take the connection.
    A fallback is that Google smtp does relay messages, so you could use that route

  • Error message setting up Yahoo email account...help!

    I just got my new Droid Razr yesterday, and I have tried numerous times to set up my existing Yahoo email account but I keep getting an error message that states "System is unavailable to support the request". My email address and password are correct, I am able to log in just fine on my computer, so I can't figure out what the problem is or how to fix it. Any help would be appreciated!

    Try this under the settings:
    Yahoo Ymail: IMAP
    Incoming Settings:
    Username: [email protected]
    Password: (check the case for your password)
    IMAP server: imap.mail.yahoo.com
    Port: 143
    Security type: TLS if available
    IMAP path prefix: (leave blank, it should read "Optional"
    Outgoing Settings:
    SMTP server: smtp.mobile.mail.yahoo.com
    Port: 25
    Security type: TLS if available
    Require sign-in: Checked
    Username: [email protected])
    Password: (check the case for your password)
    If that does not work, I would use the app available in the Play Store as stated above.

  • Setting up Yahoo email on iPhone 4

    My Yahoo id is different from my yahoo email address. How do I set up my Yahoo account to allow for this on the iphone?
    I've tried setting up Yahoo as an 'Other' account with both POP and IMAP, neither seem to work. Any ideas?

    I'm able to receive email using the following incoming mail server:
    imap.apple.mail.yahoo.com
    However, the outgoing mail server still isn't being recognized and won't allow me to send mail:
    smtp.mail.yahoo.com
    Any thoughts?

  • Setting Up Yahoo email on BB in Pakistan

    Hi All,
       Please help if anyone has got a definitive answer. I have a blackberry and BIS plan (Telenor) and i am not able to configure yahoo email on my device. When i try to configure yahoo email i get,
    "Invalid email address or password:
    Please verify your email address and password. The information you provided is incorrect.
    If the error persists contact yahoo.com (your email provider)."
    Now this is the correct password i am entering here (for sure) and still i get the message.
    It seems that no one in Pakistan is able to configure yahoo email on BB device, through i have successfully configured hotmail and gmail and other accounts. Similarly yahoo messenger also says service not supported.
    I am able to access yahoo messenger and yahoo email on my computer though.
    Anyone knows what is the reason ?.

  • Can't set up Wi-Fi on Samsung Galaxy S3

    When I try to set up a Wi-Fi connection on my Samsung Galaxy S3, I always get the message "Incorrect password." The salesperson in the Verizon store and the phone's manual both indicate that the password should be the administrator's password for the router used for our home network (one desktop, one laptop, and one wireless network printer).
    I have changed the router's admin password twice (once because I forgot the password and had to reset all the router's settings from scratch, and again because I tried another password on the off-chance that it might make the connection work).
    Is the router's password supposed to be something other than its admin password? Or is there something else that I'm not doing? FWIW, when I view the Advanced Settings on the Wi-Fi settings screen, they pick up router's settings correctly.
    Thanks very much for any help you can provide.

    Hi Klue,
    I tried what you suggested this afternoon, but it didn't work. I finally got connected after several blind alleys. Hubby and I went to the Verizon store where we bought the phone soon afterward. The salesperson tried to connect to their network and wasn't able to get it to work, but he could connect to his phone, which he'd set up as a Wi-Fi hotspot. He was out of ideas and told me to contact Samsung when we got home.
    I did reach a Samsung chat agent walked me through a procedure using additional settings to set up Wi-Fi on my phone. We got as far as IP address, which said Unavailable. The chat agent said to contact our ISP for what to enter in this field. While waiting on hold for the ISP's Tech Support, I realized the IP address should be unavailable because it's a dynamic IP address. When I talked to a support tech, she confirmed that but said she could help me. With her on the phone, I tried the router's admin password again, didn't work. She then suggested that I go to the router setup and first try the router's passphrase, didn't work. Finally, she asked me to try the router's first security key -- voila, she's a genius -- it worked!
    While I'm glad it's working, I'm a little peeved that it took so long to solve the problem. On the other hand, the Verizon salesperson said that if Samsung couldn't help me and I had no success connecting someplace with open Wi-Fi access tomorrow, they would give me a new phone.
    Thanks very much for your suggestion.
