Yahoo account disappeared today

I had two yahoo email accounts disappear from my phone today. I know I looked at email earlier, but went to check it just now and both email accounts were gone. Went to manage accounts and both were gone. attempted to add account, both were available to restore, and when i chose to restore, it prompted me to select my exchange account is listed 6 times as EAS account? What should I do, anyone else see this today?

Adding the account back worked, but it was unexpected that the accounts were removed. Anyone else have this or find a cause? Also battery life has been terrible since VRHLE update. :(

Ios8 sent email disappeared Yahoo account

Hello,
I had sent an email from my yahoo account on my ipone 5. Yesterday evening it showed as being sent. This afternoon I realized it has disappeared. Not in sent, junk, or trash folders. It also is not showing up anywhere when logging into yahoo mail. Is there anyway to find it or recover it?

POP email only connects to the Inbox on the server. You will never see other folders. If your email provider offers IMAP then the messages and folders are all on the server and you just access them with the email client and you can see any folder that you subscribe to.

My work emails disappeared today on Iphone, but my yahoo emails remain. Why?

I have an Iphone 3GS and I have my yahoo account and my work account on the phone. I save the necessary emails that I might need when away from my computer. This morning I turned on my phone to check emails and my work emails disappeared completely (getting new emails on phone however). All of my Yahoo emails still remain. Why is this happening and how do I get them back?
Thank you

POP accounts do not synchronize across multiple clients; the POP3 protocol was invented at a time when personal computers were new, and no one anticipated that anyone would ever have more than one device to read email. So when multiple devices became available the IMAP protocol was developed; IMAP makes the server the master copy, and replicates mail to all clients and keeps them synchronized. So deleting or moving a message on one client updates the server, and then the other clients the next time they sync. Yahoo uses IMAP, which is why it works as you described. Exchange is similar to IMAP, but uses a different lower level protocol that allows "push" to the clients so they don't have to request updates.
As your work accounts are POP3 mail should never be deleted unless you delete it, or you have automatic deleting set up in the settings. So it sounds like something went wrong on your phone; possibly a "toxic" malformed email was received that corrupted the Inbox, and mail.app recovered be emptying the Inbox. It's unlikely that those emails can be recovered. You can try restoring the backup if you had synced recently, but that will overwrite everything that has been received since.
If at all possible you should switch to an IMAP or Exchange account for your work email to protect against this in the future (and also take advantage of other IMAP benefits, such as folders).

Notes disappeared while using inaccessible yahoo account, recovery mission

Nearly 3 months ago now I departed for my first of-age independent overseas trip to Vietnam. Shortly before leaving home the thought of losing my iPod notes (where I keep all of my important information) during the trip comes to mind, so I scramble to see whether my iPod is backed up with itunes in the case that the iPod gets stolen or lost. I do a new backup for safety (23/11/14)
When I'm at the airport waiting I have a fiddle around with the notes settings. Virtually all of my notes are located on a yahoo 'account' within the notes. I didn't particularly want to use yahoo but I just went with it when they started saving in there automatically several years ago. The yahoo email account it is linked to is one that I hadn't been able to get into for a very long time, so when I saw in the settings that I could change the 'default account' to gmail (the email I actually use) I went for it. I go into my notes and they've all disappeared, excluding one from before the yahoo account existed, located instead on the 'on my ipod touch' account. The yahoo account has disappeared from the accounts page on the notes (http://puu.sh/g4y51/6ea6558e4b.jpg). I try switching the default back to yahoo but my notes don't come back.
Since I was leaving for overseas and couldn't check my computer for the backup I did, I opted to try and recover my yahoo email acccount to see if my notes had saved there. I manage to get in and when I do, the notes section has only 4 notes from years ago, including that one note from the 'on my ipod touch' account (the other three I believe were deleted notes from the same time period). I more or less give up in the hopes that when I get back home all of my notes will be saved onto iTunes. When I get back I download the iphonebackupextractor program and check the backup from the day I left (23/11/14) and in the notes section there is one note only. It's that same note that was not wiped from the ipod and was in the notes section of my yahoo email account. iCloud did not have any notes saved. I've added the yahoo account back in Settings>Mail, Contacts & Calendars>Accounts but the only notes in the account are the 4 that synced to the email. I imagine that the hundreds of others didn't sync because I hadn't inputted the password for such a long time (there was nothing in the password section in >Accounts), that being because I didn't know the password.
Have these notes simply vanished? Has anyone encountered something like this before? I would really love to have these notes back as it is the product of my thoughts during the coming-of-age section of my life (17-18 especially). I am now very skeptical about the stock notes app's reliability and am interested in any good alternatives anyone might know about where I can backup to email accounts and my computer with ease, separate notes into folders, and whatever other good features you think I could find handy.

Oops! Here's the question that belongs to the information above:
Yesterday, one of my Notes disappeared while I was editing it. What happened?

Exchange email account disappears on treo pro

activesync works great on my treo pro with my corporate outlook exchange email account. but over the past two weeks, the exchange account has simply disappeared three or four times from my phone. (it is the only active account i have. i also have a yahoo account on the phone but it is set to manual updates.) for some reason the exchange account name and details are simply no longer in my list of email accounts and also not available in activesync.
this has happened most when i have not used the treo for a few hours. it is easy to reestablish the account by re-entering password etc and then re-sync everything. but it is also a troublesome pain. does anyone have an idea why this might be?
Post relates to: Treo Pro T850U (Unlocked)

I've never heard of the account simply disappearing. I would try a Hard Reset of the device and see what happens after that. If it continues to happen after a Hard Reset, you might want to talk to your Exchange Admin and see if they are kicking you off.

I can't find older emails in my Yahoo account or iPhone app BUT I am able to see them on my Mac Mail version of email. sent emails are OK.

... for the past few months i have noticed that emails in my inbox Yahoo mail account older than a few weeks keep disappearing. i cannot find them in my Yahoo account or iPhone app BUT i can see them on my Mac Mail version of email. Emails that i have stored into folders in my yahoo account are still there... same with my sent emails... it's just the Inbox emails.. strange, very strange. I don't know how to 'move' the emails from my Mac Mail back to my Yahoo account.

Please read and begin using Can receive email, but not send email. I had a similar issue with Comcast mail (could receive by not send) and found my answer in this letter. For me it took resetting the outgoing mail and telling the system to use a password when sending outgoing mail. If you need help with that please advise and I'll tell you where to look.

Email folders now available in Thunderbird. What happens when administrator deletes Yahoo account?

My Yahoo email account from work will be deleted soon by the administrator. Using IMAP I have my inbox and folders in Thunderbird. When the Yahoo account is deleted will I have any access to the messages and attachments via Thunderbird. I read something about it downloading message headers only. Is there any way I can backup my mail folders and attachments in whole so if I need them later I can get them?

Since you're using IMAP, they will in all probability disappear unless you do something about it. If you want to keep them, you need to make copies outside of the Yahoo account.
Thunderbird provides the Local Folders account for just this purpose. Move your messages there before it's too late. Since you're going to be getting much of the material from yahoo's servers, i.e. via your internet connection, try to do this as a large number of small transfers.
I understand "headers only" to be specific to POP-connected accounts.

Yahoo contacts disappeared after 5.1 update

I have a weird issue that I am trying to figure out. I updated wirelessly yesterday from 5.01 to 5.1. Initially, everything was good. Today, however, I found that my Yahoo Contacts are all gone. My Exchange contacts are still present though. Also note, that I sync my Yahoo contacts, mail, calendar, etc...wirelessly (not through iTunes). Aside from my Yahoo Contacts not being present everything else seems normal. I ran through some of the basics to see if I could fix the issue but still have not been able to make progress. I did the following:
Deleted My Yahoo Contacts (carddav.address.yahoo.com) and readded.
Toggled off/on/off Contacts under the regular Yahoo app (mail, calendar, notes, etc...)
Deleted my Exchange account and readded.
Rebooted multiple times.
I guess the last resort would be to delete my Yahoo account and then re-add it. I don't think this would do it though because I already had my Yahoo Contacts syncing via my Yahoo carddav account.
Any help would be appreciated.

I and others have the same problem, see https://discussions.apple.com/message/17818516#17818516.
I have e-mailed Yahoo technical support including the links to these discussions.

Emails that I send from my yahoo account are being sent from my gmail account - I checked to see in Mail preferences if I had set gmail as my preferred server ( I had not). This has happened on my iMac and Macbook Pro - both running on Yosemite.

Emails sent from my Yahoo account are arriving from my Gmail account?! How? This has only started happening today.

please read this article from the public knowledge base:

2 iphones same yahoo account - old messages on first page

So I got up this morning and found e-mails from 2008 in the list of most recent top 50 messages. I deleted the acocunt and rebooted using home/sleep buttons. Reset up the account and the same things it is showing a couple unread messages from today and then messages from 08 and couple from 07.
I also have my personal yahoo account setup and it's fine.
So I am thinking maybe my grand mothers phone has something screwy with it thats affecting me too?
We share a business e-mail account and I have a folder that anything that has to do with my stuff auto filters to my folder. My folder has a lot more recent e-mails in it but still has e-mails going back to 2007. I have over 2000 messages in my e-mail folder so 2007 can not be in the top 50.

Dude, you probably have this solved by now, but hey..if in the future, simply take both phones, and two separate computers (Mac or PC) do a FULL backup on both phones to to each computer via iTunes...(don't back up both phones to one computer, backup one iphone to one computer, and back up the other on another computer)... power off both phones, swap SIM cards and power them both back on....switch the phones to the computer that has the backup you want, after identifying the iphone in the list, ( it will still show the original name) then right click on the phone in the list and select "restore from backup".... do that on both computers (phones) and they will now be switched !!
I have done this, so I know it works.... Good Luck !!

Mails forwarded from yahoo account automatically deleted by icloud mail.

Recently I have completely switched over to iCloud mail for sending and receiving all mails. There were two problems that I found. These are as follows:
1. I am forwarding all the mails from my gmail, ymail and outlook.com account to iCloud.com account. But some of the messages don't reach (or probably are automatically deleted from) my iCloud mailbox. I have checked the junk email folder also. They are not there. Some of these emails like the promotional mails I have subscribed to and my Internet bill are not really spam. Still somehow they don't get into my iCloud mailbox despite my yahoo account forwarding them. Proof that the yahoo account is forwarding them is that all those emails were deleted from my yahoo account automatically after being forwarded.
Is there a way to correct this unwanted behavior of iCloud mail. I want all the mails to appear and then I'll decide what is junk and what should be deleted.
2. The second problem is that if I disconnect my iPad from the wifi and then connect it again after some time, then the mails that I received in the mean time are not automatically pushed to my iPad from the server as soon as I connect my iPad to a wifi network. This didn't happen when I was using outlook.com account. I have to manually refresh the inbox now or wait for some new mail to arrive which will flush all the waiting mails in one go.
Please help me. The first problem particularly is very annoying, please help.

IMAP mail accounts have a remote view of the emails on the server.
You 'subscribe' to see the contents of server folders.
Only the headers are downloaded and when you select an email the folder is copied to a temp cache to facilitate quicker access to that folder.
These emails are not stored on your computer.
If you choose to 'synchronize' folders, then a copy of the folder is downloaded to your thunderbird Profile folder.
This means you can view those emails when in offline mode. These emails are on your computer, BUT as these folders are set to synchronize, it means that folder can get updated by the server, if emails are removed off the server and you synch, you will see all of those emails disappear from Thunderbird to synch and match the server.
So the best method is to synchronize the folder to get emails onto your computer, then go into 'offline' mode so that Thunderbird cannot connect with server.
Then move those emails into suitable folders in Local Folders.
The 'Local Folder' folders will be stored on your computer and will not be efected by the IMAP mail account even when you later select to remove it.
You can use this addon to create a backup of Local Folder folders and emails and also synchronised folders in offline mode.
* https://freeshell.de//~kaosmos/mboximport-en.html
Right click on folder in Local Folders (or a synchronized folder in offline mode)
select 'Importexporttool'
then you have a selection of methods available.

Cannot log in to BT Yahoo Account

I have had my phone and broadband connected today and both are working, but I cannot log into the BT Yahoo account to get to emails and also it wont let me use them when I try and download the antivirus software. I know the username and password are correct but it doesnt seem to recognize them. Does it take a while for BT to activate the username after your broadband is turned on
Thanks

Hi kazzie13 and welcome
Yes, there can be a delay from when your connection goes live to be able to access your email account. It IIRC can take about 24hours - depends on how quick the system plays catch up.

Yahoo email disappeared

My yahoo email accounts disappeared yesterday. I tried to reinstall it, but the phone won't give me that option.

I'm sorry the email accounts got removed, michelep77546! Lets take a look at this. What options do you have under Settings > Accounts & Sync > Add Account? You can add the accounts under the "Other" option. There is also the alternative to download the Yahoo! email application they provide. Keep me posted!
Thanks,
