Yahoo Mail Doesn't Work, What Do I Do?
I've been trying for hours now to try and get MAIL to work with my Yahoo Mail account. After heavy researching I found out that it will not work unless I use the POP Yahoo thing which costs $20 a year. Not worth it to me.
Then after more research I saw sites that has downloadable programs, all legal, which allows Yahoo mail to show up on MAIL on my new Macbook. I tried it and still not working.
I'm asking here now cause i dont know what to do. What options do I have? Get an email account from somewhere else? I heard google mail supports MAIL with Macs. But I love my Yahoo email, i use it daily often receving 50 or so important emails.
Any tips or advice would be great appreciated. Thanks
umm...i tried 2 i think.
one was called freepops something
the other was simply pop3
free downloadable from their site. it states the incoming server number which is something like 127.0.0.1 but its not working. after looking at past message boards i see im not the only one with that problem.
im new to the mac so...

Downloaded thunderbird 31 now my e-mail doesn't work. what's wrong?
I downloaded Thunderbird 31 on 10/16/14 and the next day my e-mail did not work. So what is wrong?
Your '''Installed Plug-ins'' list in '''''More system details...''''' to the right of your posting doesn't show Flash is installed for Firefox. <br />
Do you have that plugin enabled or disabled?<br />
Look in Tools > Addons > Plugins to see.
Or did you download it and not actually install it? -
A few days ago I updated to firefox 9.0.1, and when I am using firefox in the My Yahoo account, I can see my emails, but when I click on one to open it, I am asked to put in my password for yahoo. This shouldn't occur because it already know who I am because I can see my name there and my emails etc. When I put in my password it doesn't accept it.
The location bar is also known as the address bar, it is where you enter web addresses.
When it crashes does it submit any crash reports? If it does can you post some of the crash report IDs as that may help somebody identify the cause of the crashes. For details of how to get the crash report IDs see the [[Firefox crashes]] article. -

Sending in Mail doesn't work, Entourage does, Why?
Sending emails in Apple's Mail doesn't work, yet Microsoft Entourage does, Why?
This is the conversation I've been having with my server tech, and they can't find the reason why I can send mail in Microsoft Entourage no problem, yet Apple Mail receives but not able to send any email what so ever..
Very frustrating.

I'm having a heck of a time trying to SEND emails on the SilverSpiritHomeServices.com system.
I'm using a Mac.
I can do it in Microsoft Entourage, yet I can't do it in Mac Mail (this is the program I need to be able to use).
Receiving email it works fine, just sending it only works in Entourage.

Hello,
That definitely seems odd. Since it works fine with Entourage, that would indicate the server is working properly. Additionally, I've tested the SMTP server from here (on a Mac) and am able to connect. I do not have a valid user to send email with, but I can try it if you want to provide me with the one you are trying, temporarily.
As always, if you have any other questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us. Have a great day, and thanks for choosing Rackspace Managed Hosting!

Here is the "cheat sheet" from APPLE.COM:
"Outgoing mail server settings
Outgoing server hostname: __________________________
Such as smtp.sampleserver.com
Outgoing server port:
25 [ ] 465 [ ] 587 [ ] Other: ____
The outgoing mail server supports Secure Sockets Layer (SSL): Yes [ ] No [ ]
Outgoing server authentication type:
Password [ ] MD5 [ ] NTLM [ ] Kerberos [ ]
Outgoing server requires a username and password: Yes [ ] No [ ]
If yes, username: ___________________ password: _______________________
Can these settings be used from any Internet connection?: Yes [ ] No [ ]
If you use your ISPâs own email service (instead of a third-party such as Gmail), sometimes it may not work if you roam to another Internet access point, such as a cafe with wireless Internet. Check with your email provider that the settings they give you will work if you plan to roam."

Hello Carl,
In your report, I notice this:
Authentication: None
You need to authenticate before you can send mail so, authentication is a must. To be thorough, I tested both SMTP and POP authentication with the credentials you specified:

What kind of authentication?

Hello Carl,
Your server only supports CRAM-MD5 and PLAIN authentication. You will need to use plain text authentication. I have never configured mac mail so I do not know how to configure this, you may want to speak with someone a apple support if you have trouble.

While I am not sure, you may want to try 'PASSWORD'.

Hello tifftann,
I'm sorry, I'm a bit unclear what exactly you mean when you say that your Yahoo account "stop[ed] working". If you are having issues sending or receiving from the Yahoo mail account you have configured on your iPhone after a recent iOS update, you may find the troubleshooting steps outlined in the following article helpful:

HI, I just got a Macbook Pro. It's great but my mail doesn't work at all. It will come up correctly, but take forever to download messages, then won't delete them, then won't save them to folders. Then when I go to quit mail it's like it gets stuck between quitting and not. I have to force quit, then restart my computer if I want to pull up my mail again. How can I fix this?
If you just got your new MBP you have phone support from Apple (which is quite good) call them. 800-692-7753 tell the automated answerer "mail technical support" you'll have human quite quickly. Hope this helps.

There is no more LiveType with Motion 5. You may want to go to the Final Cut Express forum, as that's the only place it's existed for the last few years.

Hello my name is Leslie and i would like to ask you guys a question on how to fix my ipod or what is wrong with it. My ipod touch 5th generation will not turn on and the home button doesn't work. what can i do to fix it ?
Has the home button worked in the past, or is this been something that hasn't worked for some time? The only way to reset the device is with the sleep/wake (power) and home buttons together. Without it, you would have to wait until the battery dies and then plug it in to try and reset it. The Home button is used for several user troubleshooting steps. Without it, you cannot perform a reset, put the device into recovery mode, or place it in DFU mode. You need to get the home button repaired.

This last week (of 17 Sep 12) I updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 6 and now my Yahoo mail does not work. I keep getting a "Yahoo server busy" message. This problem has not effected the update to my iPad 3 - it works fine. In addition, I have deleted and added my Yahoo mail - same result. Looking for ideas on repairing the link between iOS 6 and Yahoo. Cheers
Same here, albeit with a 3G and both a work Exchange account and personal Gmail are out of action. Reentered my password on the Gmail to no avail.
Unfortunately it seems that increased success has come too fast to Apple, it's starting to display Microsoft-like behaviors, e.g., releasing stuff and letting the customers serve as the beta / guinea pigs.
