When I open the mail app and go to yahoo, my phone freezes..Why?

I saw this problem in the mac forum as well. When I open the Apple mail app and go to my yahoo inbox, it freezes. I have to back to the home screen, click it twice to view open apps and close it to access my yahoo mail again. I've tried deleting the account and "readding" it, but to no avail. My (now outdated) iPad 1 is not having this issue, probably since I'm not using the same OS...
Latest iphone 5 16GB OS...any else having this problem. It's quite annoying. I don't think it's Yahoo since I can access it on my PC as well as my iPad as I already mentioned.

Howdy Sn8kman1,
Quitting the app would have been the first thing I would have recommended. Since you have already re added the account we dont have to do that again. Heres what I think you hould do next.
Restart the iPhone following this article.

Restarting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.

  • Having connected my new iPhone 6 to itunes and setting it up as normal... i transferred music to it as normal but when i open the music app and select a playlist it has a download cloud next to each track...

    After connecting my new iPhone 6 to iTunes, i transferred my music as i always have done. After opening the music app and selecting a playlist there is a download cloud next to each track... this is also the case with each podcast. Also once i reconnect the phone to iTunes go to add another playlist, at the top the "sync music" check tick has disappeared. when i re check that box again it says "Do you want to sync this iPhone all data will be erased"
    can anyone help at all?
    Thank you

    Hello henryscott3,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    From your post it appears that you either have iTunes Match on your iPhone, or are seeing items that are available in iTunes in the Cloud and not on your device.  To learn more about both of these features, please see the articles below.

  • I am using ios 7 on the iPad 4.. The OS restarts suddenly when I open the music app and and select a radio station.. Is this a bug?.. Or any updates coming to resolve this?...

    Rare restart problem when I play radio from music app..

    cor-el:
    Thanks for the suggestion. I already tried rebuilding that file as well and it didn't help. Also, all the changes I make are retained from session to session in terms of placement and what's shown/hidden, it's just the contents of the bookmark toolbar that disappear. The toolbar is still there and I can drag things to it, but again, they disappear after restarting the browser.
    edit (clarification):
    When I say the items disappear, I mean they are no longer visible or clickable. They are still there in the sense that they appear in the Bookmark menu and if I move the Bookmark Toolbar from its own toolbar into the space next to the Menu Toolbar, they are then shown.

  • When I open my mail app it shows that I have unread mail, so I click mark all read and carry on my business. About 2 seconds later all the mail I just marked comes back unread. This keeps happening, what can I do?

    Everytime I get a new email, I open the mail app and mark it as read. Recently, whenever I receive emails I mark them all read yet 2 seconds later they are all marked unread. I again mark them all read and the same thing happens. I now have 95 emails from 2 weeks ago that I clearly marked read but they won't stay read. What can I do?

  • I cannot open the mail app on my ipad

    HI all,
    i am having problems with my iPad 2 when using mail.  It all worked fine until today.
    when a new email arrives the icon shows waiting mail.  When I open the mail app it shows a blank screen with the normal boxes in but no text and no email.  After approx 10 seconds the screen fades to black and then goes back to the home screen. See image below.
    i have tried doing a reset but it make no difference.
    any help much appreciated.
    thanks
    Chris

    Have you tried to force close the mail app? Double tap the home button. You'll see icons and previews on the screen. Scroll sideways if needed to bring the mail app up on the screen. Flick the preview up and off the screen to close it. Then single tap the home button or home page preview to exit the mode and try again.

  • A magazine's app on my iPad has stopped working.  When I open the Newsstand folder and click on the app, the screen dims briefly, then returns to the Newsstand folder. The other app in my Newsstand folder (Wall Street Journal) opens without any problem.

    A magazine's app on my iPad has stopped working.  When I open the Newsstand folder and click on the app, the screen dims briefly, then returns to the Newsstand folder. The other app in my Newsstand folder (Wall Street Journal) opens without any problem, and this magazine's app opens just fine on my wife's iPad.
    I have deleted the app and reinstalled it from the Apple store and that makes no difference.  I have also done a hard reboot on my iPad with no result.
    Any thoughts about what might be wrong? 

    Hey everyone in Apple world!
    I figured out how to fix the flashing yellow screen problem that I've been having on my MBP!  Yessssss!!!
    I found this super handy website with the golden answer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    I followed the instructions on this page and here's what I did:
    Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
    Shut down your Mac.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.
    I went through the 6 steps above twice, just to make sure I got rid of whatever stuff was holding up my bootup process.  Since I did that, my MBP boots up just like normal.  No flashing yellow screen anymore!!   
    (Note that I arrived at this solution when I first saw this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570?viewlocale=en_US)
    Let me know if this works for you!

  • I have updated iOS 6 in my iPhone 4S and it went perfectly fine. Just after that when I opened the message app I found that the sms body of system generated messages was not visible after tapping on them.

  • How can I change the settings on my iPhone 5 so that I get new emails automatically? Without having to open the mail app.

    How can I change the settings on my iPhone 5 so that I get new emails automatically? Without having to open the mail app.
    Thanks!

    No, they will all follow the default setting. If you want them all to fetch, for example every 15 minutes, then set it to 15 minutes in Fetch. I only mentioned the other if you wanted to leave one for manual. I have an account on my phone that is a POP account that I get mail at home from. I let my home computer get this mail, but when I am out of town, I pick it up with the iPhone. That one is set to manual.

  • HT1695 What is an Exchange account? When I open the email app I get the message "Password Incorrect. Enter the password for the Exchange account "Exchange""

    What is an Exchange account? When I open the email app I get the message "Password Incorrect. Enter the password for the Exchange account "Exchange""

    An Exchange account is an e-mail account serviced my a Microsft Exchange server... Typically a corporate e-mail account. It used to be possible to configure a free gmail account as an Exchange account, but it is no longer possible to set one up that way.

  • Cannot go to iTunes store using my iPhone 6 plus. I click on App Store and it opens up iTunes U. Even when I open iPhones video app and try to purchase a movie which is suppose to take me to iTunes store, it instead opens up iTunes U.

    Cannot go to iTunes store using my iPhone 6 plus. I click on App Store and it opens up iTunes U. Even when I open iPhones video app and try to purchase a movie which is suppose to take me to iTunes store, it instead opens up iTunes U. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks..

    There isn't currently any music, films or TV programmes available in the South Korean store, so you will only see iTunes U in the iTunes store app. You can't use the US store unless you are in the US, you have to be in a country to use its store (that is in the Store's terms) - so whilst you are in South Korea you can only use the South Korean store.
    Are there other music purchase download sites in South Korea that you could use ? You can also copy your CDs via your computer's iTunes

  • When I open the Music app, I can't access iTunes Radio.

    When I open the Music app, iTunes Radio doesn't work for me. When I open it the first time it showed the icon but the it disappeared. Does anyone know what this happens and how to fix it?

    You'll want to contact Apple Support by phone to have them walk you through the process of getting this older account cleaned up and your issue resolved.

  • Ipad2 doesn't sync with my kindle. When I open the kindle app I have to search for the correct page. Does anyone else have this problem?

    When I open the kindle app on iPad 2 I have to search for the correct page. Does anyone else have this problem?

    Well, I did a search on apple.com and found this:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-news/2010/04/the-hidden-itunes-visualizer-con trols.html
    "The Visualizer -- graphics that swoop and pulse with the music -- has been part of iTunes' DNA from the beginning. And because its creators wanted to interact with the graphics in real time as well as watch them, Visualizer includes some single keystroke commands that change what you see while it runs. But these commands are hidden by default lest they obstruct the graphics.
    Use the Show/Hide Visualizer command in the View menu to turn Visualizer on and off, and use the Visualizer menu to select among the choices. If the choice you're using has hidden commands you can see them for a brief time by typing ? while a song is playing and Visualizer is visible. The keystrokes will work regardless of whether the help menu is showing, so if you memorize them it's possible to add Virtuoso Visualizer Player to your list of accomplishments. (For the Visualizer choice called Jelly, available only in iTunes for Mac, try holding the keys down, especially the number keys, for maximum effect.")
    Not that you care. >.<

  • Can I open the Mail app without configuration an email address?

    I'm trying to open a .eml file, which seems possible in the Mail app.  However, I can't open the Mail app without configuration an email account.  I don't have an email account to configure; just want to open the file.  Or, let's suppose, I just wanted to browse the interface?  How to avoid the account setup part?

    Just enter anything short & plausible in as few fields as you can get away with : '[email protected]' works here, you'll get a brief 'not responding' or such at each stage, but it does allow you to use Mail.
