Yahoo mail and hotmail help, please!

I have OS X 10.5.8, and for few days I have been unable to log into yahoo mail and hotmail. i can open the login homepage and then get "Safari can’t open the page because the server unexpectedly dropped the connection. This sometimes occurs when the server is busy. Wait for a few minutes, and then try again." after entering login and password. i checked for updates, and it says i have all current updates. after reasearching this, i tried turning ipv6 off and having no proxies checked, but it didn't help. I deleted cookies (and checked to always allow cookies), emptied cache, restarted, and nothing. I don't use the mail application on my computer, i just log in to these sites with safari. sometimes i have been able to get into yahoo and do a few things, but then i get a page that fails to open sooner rather than later. i can get to most other pages, though i have been getting the same message frequently for some other pages, more so than normal. not sure what my options are or what changed even, but i just want to be able to sign into mail. thanks for any help.

You can also try downloading a different browser and see if the problem still exists, I have never had this problem, and I have Yahoo, there have many issues with them, that I thought were at my end, but then they would come back with, oh we changed this that is why I mentioned this.
You can try with this and see if the problem still happens and this might suggest the former.
If nothing else this would also help as a diagnostic tool.

Mail and password: Help please!!!

I have changed my password and on my iPhone and iPad there is no problem. However, on my iMac, 10.8.2 every time I put the computer to sleep and then wake it up again Mail tells me to verify my password. I press OK but it refuses to accept and I am forced to go to System Preferences, then mail where I press OK for the same password and the whole thing then works.
In Yahoo it works perfectly!
What is happening in Mail. I have deleted the account in preferences and set it up again but all to no avail.
Help please!!!

You might try the following steps:
Restart the device by holding down the on/off button until the power down slider appears.
Try entering your password in another location (i.e. when you are using a different wifi network)
Reset all settings (settings > general > reset), this resets some of your settings to factory default. It’s not a complete removal of settings. It removes all of your preferences for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Do No Disturb, Notifications, General, Sounds, Brightness & Wallpaper and Privacy. It does not remove any of your data.
Try signing out of iCloud and back in (only if find my phone is disabled)
If this doesn’t help your best option may be to contact Apple ID Support, upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.

BT Yahoo Mail export contacts - help please!

Hello,
I'm trying to export my contacts from Bt Yahoo mail. I select all, click actions, click export all, click yahoo csv. However when I come to import contacts with outlook 2003 (I have also tried with gmail) only one (the top one) is imported. Also, when I open the CSV with Excel I can only see that one contact (an error message also appears saying "file not loaded completely). I have tried the same exporting contacts to an outlook csv with the same results. I have also tried selecting just some contacts but, equally, only the first one gets exported. I have also tried to sync my outlook with the account with yahoo sync, but no luck.
I'm out of ideas, can anyone help?
Gail

Cheers but in the end I just exported all contacts as a "vCard, Zip of .VCF files" and imported each one individually to outlook then exported contacts as a csv file, then imported that to gmail.
Labourious, but possibly a solution unless anyone else out there has anything better?
Gail

Mail and hotmail help !!!!

Help !! This has been going on for about a week now.I can receive mail ( though mail on my imac ) from my hotmail account,but everytime i try to send an email this message comes up.
Connections to the server “smtp.live.com” on the default ports timed out
Select a different outgoing mail server from the list below or click Try Later to leave the message in your Outbox until it can be sent.
Any ideas why and what i can do ? ( im not that great with computers so please be basic !!!! ) thanks

Hello, several reports of HotMail troubles lately, but have you logged in using WebMail in a Browser to see if the locked sending?
In Mail's Window Menu, choose Connection Doctor, any red dots for status, if so what is the exact message?
Then click the Show Details button & Check again.
The Password rejection can confuse people since it's a catch all meaning...
This Password, Username, Authentication method... is not recognized on this Port to this Server.
So if WebMail works it's not Name or Password, but one of the other ones.
The receiving email ports are:
IMAP is port 143
IMAP-SSL is port 993
POP is port 110
POP-SSL is port 995
Outgoing ports are...
SMTP and SMTP-SSL is on ports 25, 587 and 465. Port 587 has to be SSL, and port 465 is enforced TLS-wrapped and is generally used by Outlook users.

After Mac OS X 10.6.3 upgrade can't access Yahoo mail and repeatedly get message ""Sorry, we are over capacity. Please wait a moment and try again." Help, please,

After Mac OS X 10.6.3 upgrade can't access Yahoo mail and repeatedly get message ""Sorry, we are over capacity. Please wait a moment and try again." Help, please.

Did you run all the software updates after the 10.6.3 update, especially this one which will bring you up to 10.6.8.
Mac OSX 10.6.8 V1.1 Combo update
Run software update, starting with the one above.
Then call your provider and ask them what is going on. They have probably changed POP to IMAP, 10.6.8 supports IMAP

Note that you lose privacy when using Gmail (and Yahoo):
Gmail and Yahoo both scan users' emails. They do algorithmic analysis of your email messages, targeting ads that relate to the content of your messages. Defenders point out that "they", are not people, but machines. And they argue that it is a harmless way of making advertising relevant to users and raising revenues.
Others might say that whether a machine or a human is doing the work, the potential for a privacy breach is there.

I will address your second question.
First, make sure your iPhone and iPad have absolutely identical Apple IDs. If they do, use that Apple ID in Settings > iCloud on your iPhone to select the "Notes" option. Lo and behold, all your iCloud notes should appear on your iPhone.

Google them to confirm the settings that you need for the outgoing server, then check the setting you entered on the pad. Pay real close attention to the outgoing server name, and port. You may need to change in on the pad.

Problems with Yahoo Mail and Calendar on MacBook air. Very slow performance. Any ideas?

I have a macbook air running Apple's latest OS. My system is up-to-date. Over the last few weeks, I have had a very difficult time accessing my yahoo mail and calendar. I can access other sites, thus I know my connection is solid. The problem seems to be limited to Yahoo. I can access my yahoo account on my husband's PC without any issues. To be specific, here are the symptoms of my problem. When I try to open my yahoo mail on the Mac, I get the spinning wheel for several minutes. I view my yahoo calendar through ical. Yahoo is not connecting with ical, thus my calendar is empty. I verified my settings and they are correct. Also, sometimes after trying and retrying the calendar will connect. I checked the web and did not find any info about this problem. I appreciate your assistance.

I have been having the same issue. I can't figure it out. I have tried setting this up my yahoo calendar on my phone and my computer and my iPhone with no luck. It's definitely a Yahoo Problem. At this point I have become enemy to Yahoo Calendar.

I need a multiple message voice mail app for Iphone 4S that also provides an auto-attendant, e.g the caller can dial 1 for one of business's or 2 for the other. Each of these options will need to have a different voice mail greeting. Help please?

There are no alternative voicemail apps - the core functionality of the phone can not be replaced.
You'll have to look for an external service, that can then forward calls for each caller onto the correct phone.
At our business we use Voipfone.co.uk which allows multiple phone lines to come into one VOIP account.
