Unlink verizon email from yahoo

Iwant to sign up for the domain service so I don't lose my verizon.net email when I move (no Verizon service there.)
The domain service says that I have to unlink from Yahoo first.  Then it points me to 'Profile/online experience/change my online experience.  I have looked and that option doesn't exist anywhere under accounts and services.
I want to save my email and contacts before I unlink, so I think I need to do it this way.
Any help would be appreciated.
(BTW-I know there are other posts on this, but none show the solution.)

I have a graduate degree & am pretty computer literate, but can't change my email password.  I keep getting routed to the member center, where I can change my password for my Verizon user ID, which has no effect on my Verizon Yahoo email.  I spent over 9 hours with 4 Verizon agents & 1 Yahoo agent (who said it was a Verizon issue).  The Verizon agents were not able to fix the problem & kept passing the buck (to Yahoo), hanging up on me, or telling me assinine things like I must have a virus. I was also told that if I got rid of Verizon Yahoo, I would lose that email account.  I would suggest anyone who is having similar issues with Verizon Yahoo to file a complaint with the Public Utilities Commission, as I did!
I can't believe this is an ongoing issue.  I just spent 7 hours on live chat and on the phone with Verizon and 4 hours with Yahoo---most of the time on hold with Yahoo, which does not offer live chat.  Verizon insisted it was a Yahoo problem.  Yahoo said it was a Verizon problem.  Now Verizon says it's a yahoo problem.  I can't change my Verizon/Yahoo email account password.   I can't believe this problem has not been fixed.  The supervisor at Verizon refused to allow me to speak to a manager and would not provide me with any contact information so that I could communicate with her (ther supervisor). My e-mail account has been compromised and all I asked to do was change the password.  I changed my passwords on every other online account I have (e-mail, credit card, paypal, ebay, etc).  Each password change took 45-90 seconds.  But Verizon/Yahoo can't accomplish a simple request in 11 HOURS??!?  This is beyond ridiculous.

  • Unlinking Verizon email from Yahoo portal

    I use Outlook for email and periodically it stops working giving me the message that it can't connect to the outgoing server.  It started again two days ago.
    I just got off the phone with Verizon support.  They told me to take the 'yahoo' out of the server names and just make them 'incoming(or outgoing.verizon.net'.  They gave me several port numbers to try.  Nothing worked and they claim I just have to accept this till Yahoo and Verizon completely separate. 
    Even using Yahoo mail web service is annoying as emails take hours to reach me sometimes.
    This is very frustrating!!  I can't believe there is no solution.  Please help!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Simply taking Yahoo out of the server name doesn't actually change the account. You don't have to wait for the separation of Yahoo and Verizon. You can migrate your email off the yahoo partnering and back on to the Verizon servers. If you decide this, you will lose anything saved on the Verizon-yahoo webmail. Anything you have already downloaded to your outlook will stay in your outlook. If you want to do the migration, please send me a private message so I can enable the switching on my end.

  • Getting my verizon email from another computer

    my main computer just went down and I would like to continue to view my verizon email from my laptop, which is not set  up with email account from verizon.
    I know there is some string that I can type to retrieve my email but not sure what that is.
    I looked in the help section but could not find the answer in all the junk listed there.
    Can anyone please provide simple instructions on how I can get my verizon email
    thanks

    If you want to use webmail, simply point your browser's address bar to http://webmail.verizon.com and log in.
    If you prefer to use a pop3 client (such as Outlook Express, Thunderbird, or Mac Mail), then you will need to configure your client of choice with the appropriate settings. Below are the settings you should be using. If you have trouble with the configuration, tell us what client you are using and we can try to give step-by-step instructions.
    For the sake of example, we are going to pretend that we are setting up fictional account "[email protected]" and the password for logging into that account in webmail is "fakepassword" - Again, this is a fictitious account for the sake of an example.
    The settings for using Verizon's servers would be:
    Incoming Server: incoming.verizon.net
    Server Requires Authentication: Yes
    Username: fakeacct
    Password: fakepassword
    Requires a Secure Connection (SSL): No
    Port: 110
    Outgoing Server: outgoing.verizon.net
    Server Requires Authentication: Yes (You can set it to use the same settings as incoming, or manually enter the username and password.)
    Requires a Secure Connection (SSL): No
    Port: 25 (although 587 also works.)
    These settings should work unless you have a Verizon/Yahoo account, in which case the server names are: incoming.yahoo.verizon.net -and- outgoing.yahoo.verizon.net

    in Keychain find the menu item for Keychain list.
    1. If your flash drive Keychain is shown, click on the check box next to it.
    2. If it is not shown, click on the + sign at the bottom of the window.
    Locate your desired Keychain and click ADD.
    Go to step 1.
    Another way is to rename the flash drive Keychain to Old_Login and copy it to your

  • My popups won't work. Ex....I can't print an email from Yahoo. Popup blocker is turned off

    I just got a pc with windows 8 and I can't use firefox as I can't print emails from yahoo for example....i am assuming that's a popup window that isn't working, but i have pop ups enabled.

    Usually Firefox's built-in popup blocker won't block a window if you clicked a link or button to open it. It is designed to block windows that open without you taking a specific action.
    One possibility is that the link/button is in a part of the page that is "blocked" by an invisible element. Another possibility is that the script that opens the window is not running correctly.
    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
    (2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • My mac wont send emails from yahoo or any other websites when using an external USB modem!

    My mac wont send emails from yahoo or any other websites when using an external USB modem! I have checked the settings and they seem correct. Can anyone help? I do not have snow leopard. I can log on my email accounts, open my incoming emails (with difficulty coz it asks me to "try again" ) but I can never send emails, I always get: "sending is taking a little long, try again".
    What is the problem? this is a hair puller !!!

    Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.

  • I change my email my Verizon email to Comcast email.  I am continually asked to give my password for my old email which I deleted.  I have deleted this Verizon email from every area on my iPad that I'm aware of, And yet he still appearing.  How do I solve

    I change my email my Verizon email to Comcast email.  I am continually asked to give my password for my old email which I deleted.  I have deleted this Verizon email from every area on my iPad that I'm aware of, And yet he still appearing.  How do I solve this.

    What you are describing sounds like you created a new apple id with your new comcast email address. There may be apps on your ipad that are associated with another id that was using your verizon email address. If thats what you're saying then those apps need to be updating by using the apple id that was used when they were downloaded.
    If you're talking about something else then maybe a lttle clarification is necessary.
    Go to settings/itunes and app stores. make sure the correct apple is shown.
    Go to settings/mail, contacts and calendars. Makes sure all of the accounts are current.
    Go to settings/icloud, facetime and messages, verify the same.

  • Cannot send email from yahoo account on iPhone 5

    I just got an iPhone5 and I couldn't set up my Yahoo email as "yahoo"--it would not allow me to complete the process despot multiple attempts. I had to set it up as an "other" account. I can receive and read emails on my phone, but when I reply those messages will not send. They go to the outbox and an error message pops up that says" the email account has been rejected by the server" Does anyone have advice on either issue: setting up yahoo properly and/or sending email from phone?

  • Cannot receive email from Yahoo

    I have 2 POP email accounts from Yahoo. Both have worked fine for about a year. All of the sudden on Nov 1st, I can no longer receive email only on one of the accounts with Mac Mail. The second account continues to function fine. I also have no issues accessing my mail through a browser.
    So far I have done the following;
    -I have verified with yahoo that all the settings are correct.
    -I deleted the first account with the problem and then recreated it. When I did this it downloaded ALL the email messages on the server but only up unitl Nov 1st when I started having the issue. I received no email messages sent after Nov 1st.
    -I set-up the email account on a Win XP box (same network) with Outlook Express and was able to download ALL the messages including ones after Nov 1st.
    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

    I went into Yahoo webmail and deleted a few emails on the date when I stopped receiving email. Magically, all my subsequent emails were were delivered to my MAC email client. One of the emails must have contained something that created an issue for Macmail. I have had no problems since.
