Yahoo mail keeps going offline

I updated my yahoo password the other day. Ever since then my yahoo mail (through imac mail app) has been going offline. I can not send messages using my imac. I should note that I do not have any issues signing into yahoo.com and sending/ receiving mail. Also usually when I send a message ( using mac mail) it sends from icloud.. not my yahoo. I am not sure what information you may need.. so here is everything- probably things you do not need as well.
Software:
OS X Yosemite 10.10
processor 2.7 GHz intel Core i5
mail version 8.0
icloud and yahoo are both "online"
Description: Yahoo!
server name : smtp.mail.yahoo.com (in use by icloud, yahoo)
TLS- none
Port: 587
"automatically detect and maintain account settings" is checked
"use SSL" is checked
authentication : password
user name and password are correct..

If Mail keeps asking for your password when retrieving mail, then it may very likely be that the password you entered has become corrupted in the Keychain. You should try this:
Open Keychain Access>Passwords and scroll through the list to find that specific entry and delete it; quit Keychain Access.
Restart Mail and enter your password again when it asks, and check the box to save it in the Keychain. If things work as expected, it will not ask you again unless your Keychain or an entry in it becomes corrupted again.

Mail keeps going offline for no reason

During the course of a day Mail keeps going "Offline" and coming up with a dialogue box asking for me to re-enter my password. I've checked in my "account" and the information is still there so I manually have to click to go back "Online". But it repeats about every 15 minutes. Restarting the computer does not fix it and it's been happening for about 2 weeks now. Sometimes when I click to go back "Online" it doesn't happen straight away and I have to wait a few minutes. Very frustrating!!!. Sending mail is fine, it just affects receiving mail.

Mail keeps going offline on MobileMe and my ISP's POP

Hi,
Just in the past 2 days my accounts keep going offline, If I bring them back online they instantly go offline again.
I opened the connection doctor and it says I am connected to the internet however in the details below it says it could not connect to his mobileme imap server or my 3 other pop servers.
I can get mail on my iPhone using the same Internet connection as my Mac.
This happens with wired and wireless connection.
A fix which works for 30 minutes or so is to disable all of my accounts in preferences and then save and then press enable again.
I spoke to Apple Care and they weren't much help.
Is there any other suggestions anybody can suggest? I am thinking of creating a temp account and importing my MBox's I don't know if this is a good idea though.
My MobileMe account is sitting at 670mb and all of my pop mail gets deleted and goes to 0mb as I run rules to transfer it to my MobileMe folders.
Please help!!

I have a similar though not identical issue with Mail - I have Comcast and Mail goes offline constantly - I reboot - reenter the port #'s and it may or may cure it - I sometimes wait and it fixes itself - When I go to Comcast web mail it's all there. It's just the Mail application - it's not a Comcast issue -
I will also receive prompts saying that the pop a/c is asking for a different port # than I've been told to use 110 for incoming and 587 for outgoing - no ssl checked - sometimes it almost seems like the numbers change on their own - I doubt that is happening and nobody will cooberate that but still it goes offline constantly - very frusrating - I am sure it has to do with Apple's security precautions in Mail -

Mail keeps going offline

My e-mails used to come in as they were sent to me. Since upgrading to OS X my computer doesn't continually stay on line and e-mails only come in when I hit Get Mail.
Can anybody help!

If you go into your "mail" app and choose "preferences" click the "general" tab and second tab down you will see "check for new mail" You will have a choice of how often your mail will be checked. I have mine set at every minute.
Hope it helps...good luck there.

Running snow leopard 10.6.8,safari 5.1.10-yahoo mail keeps asking me to update my browser but there's no link. Does it think I'm running Mavericks or what;s going on. Have carried out updates

Running Snow Leopard 10.6.7 & Safari 5.1.10
Problem is with Yahoo mail which keeps asking me to update my Safari browser but everything is up to date as far as I can tell. Have reset Safari & empties cache.
But no change- every time I go to open Yahoo mail it goes to a page with update boxes for Firefox & Safari asking me to upgrade but on hitting Safari upgrade box it just takes me to an Apple page that explains the benefits of the new Safari ( Mavericks maybe ) with no option to upgrade. Can anyone suggest an answer to this annoyance.
Thanks very much,
Dino.

Your post is pretty lengthy and I have to admit I didn't read it all. Please try restarting in Safe Mode, if that doesn't work please do both a SMC and PRAM reset. These may take 2-3 attempts.
SMC RESET
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord and all peripherals.
Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
Release the power button.
Attach the computers power cable.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
PRAM RESET
Shut down the computer.
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. You must press this key combination 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.

Mac OS X Leopard Mail SMTP server keeps going offline and won't come on

My SMTP in mail on my email accounts keeps going offline and I can't work out how to get it working again. My internet connection is fine. I am receiving emails. I was able to send earlier on my business email account but now my .mac account has gone offline and then my business on went on me.
I only started using my business email account in mail today and loaded the account into mail. Does anyone have any answers for this as I can see there have been some other people who might have had a similar problem but I can't see any fixes?
I have deleted and reloaded both my .mac and work account a couple of times now and restarted my computer but still no good.
Can anyone help?

I have that offline mail smtp server when I try to send emails from work with my macbook. I've always been able to send emails away from home using the login and password in the smtp configurations. It's a real pain since I use one email account for work and personal business. I can receive email but cannot send any. Everytime I have to answer an email while I'm working, I have to go to the browser, go to my provider's mail page, login and send from there my emails.
Do we have the same problem?

TS3276 mail smtp accounts keep going offline

The messages app in Mountain Lion keeps going offline

Hi, I am using ML on a 2010 MBP (13inch).
The message app has been configured with my Yahoo, Google Talk and iMessages accounts. The problem is that it keeps going offline. Oddly though, even when offline, I can get iMessages sent to me and it comes back online, however, my Gtalk and Yahoo friends don't see me when it auto goes offline. I tried enabling/disabling SSL in gtalk settings - did not help. I am sure its not my internet connection - I am now parallely using adium (after it kept going offline) and adium is always on for Google and Yahoo but the messages app keeps showing offline automatically (including message bar indication)

HI,
The other post I read seemed to indicate that the app "Closed" in the background when you were doing something in the foreground.
Crashed = the system tells you an App Unexpectedly Quit or there is a Crash log.
Crash Logs can be seen in Console then ~/Library/Logs/CrashReporter
Uploaded with Skitch!
You can of course navigate to your Home Folder/Library/Logs/CrashReporter and find the last Crash if there is one and it will launch Console when you try to open it.
At present I have not tried closing all the Messages windows and then letting the computer get to Sleep.
What do you have set in this spot ?
Uploaded with Skitch!
I am wondering if this is a normal function of the App so that anyone who has access to your computer can't instantly access your Messages partly as iMessages show so much "history" when a chat is reopened.

HP 8500A Plus - Keeps going offline.

An old problem but I still can't see a realistic solution on the net.
Keeps going offline - sometimes in the middle of a print run.
Turning Print Spooler off and on always cures it for a short while but this is inconvenient.
'Use Offilne' is NOT ticked. The offline message at the top of the outstanding documents list seeems to be different from and additional to the offline notice when offline is ticked.
I have given printer a fixed IP and told the router that this is a fixed IP. Checked they are the same.
When it is 'offline' it still has the correct IP address. And the router says it is connected.
This started several weeks ago. Since then I have completey changed the router and IP address range - for another reason. But its just the same problem.
Anyone solved this problem?
PS I do have a couple of non HP inks installed. Is this HP's revenge?

Hi lezzy,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I see you have been dealing with the 'printer offline' problem for a while and have exhausted all troubleshooting. Have you tried plugging in a USB to see if this makes a difference?
I would like you to run the HP Print and Scan Doctor- It was designed by HP to provide users with the troubleshooting and problem solving features needed to resolve many common problems experienced with HP print and scan products connected to Windows-based computers.
Does the PSDR find any errors, any software or drivers missing? Please let me know the outcome, I will watch for your reply.
Thanks,

Cluster Disk keeps going offline. Service or application failed

We currently have 2 servers, both housing 3 VMs (6 nodes total). 2 Disk are used to house these VM's. Cluster Disk 1 keeps going offline, which kicks 2 of our servers offline until we migrate the disk to another node (puts it into redirected
mode). We then have to restart the server to re-establish to connection to the cluster disk. Digging around in event viewer, I saw the following:
Cluster resource 'Cluster Disk 2' in clustered service or application 'b0a21897-e59b-46c9-a495-273dc5ad2aea' failed.
Cluster physical disk resource 'Cluster Disk 2' cannot be brought online because the associated disk could not be found. The expected signature of the disk was '{92eb716c-6878-42ad-b7de-f3879d72e232}'. If the disk was replaced or restored, in
the Failover Cluster Manager snap-in, you can use the Repair function (in the properties sheet for the disk) to repair the new or restored disk. If the disk will not be replaced, delete the associated disk resource.
The Cluster service failed to bring clustered service or application 'b0a21897-e59b-46c9-a495-273dc5ad2aea' completely online or offline. One or more resources may be in a failed state. This may impact the availability of the clustered service
or application.
I ran the cluster validation test and all seemed to check out except for Cluster Disk 1 and the two servers associated with this server, as shown below:
Validating cluster resource Cluster Disk 2.
This resource is marked with a state of 'Offline'. The functionality that this resource provides is not available while it is in the offline state. The resource may be put in this state by an administrator or program. It may also be a newly created
resource which has not been put in the online state or the resource may be dependent on a resource that is not online. Resources can be brought online by choosing the 'Bring this resource online' action in Failover Cluster Manager.
This resource is marked with a state of 'Failed' instead of 'Online'. This failed state indicates that the resource had a problem either coming online or had a failure while it was online. The event logs and cluster logs may have information
that is helpful in identifying the cause of the failure.
All disks are housed on our SAN. Any idea where I can start troubleshooting further? Changing the signature of the disk or finding out which application is failing? All help is greatly appreciated.

Please, help is greatly appreciated. I have been trying to find a solution for almost a week. I have a feeling this has to do with the disk. We have 3 CSV's but the only ones in question are CSV 2 & 3. Cluster Disk 2 is the disk that
keeps going offline. Cluster Disk 3 has no problems at all. They both are GPT volumes, however, after running a "cluster res", I received the following output:
Listing private properties for 'Cluster Disk 2':
T Resource Name Value
D Cluster Disk 2 DiskIdType 1 (0x1)
D Cluster Disk 2 DiskSignature 0 (0x0)
S Cluster Disk 2 DiskIdGuid {92eb716c-6878-42ad-b7de-f3879d72e232}
===============================================================
Listing private properties for 'Cluster Disk 3':
T Resource Name Value
D Cluster Disk 3 DiskIdType 1 (0x1)
D Cluster Disk 3 DiskSignature 994692308 (0x3b49ccd4)
S Cluster Disk 3 DiskIdGuid {4f27bc43-6964-466e-a77d-2321b2b0b718}
=============================================================
As shown, cluster disk 1 has a disk signature but NOT a diskID. Cluster disk 2 as a DiskID but NOT a signature. It may be beneficial to add that cluster disk 3 used to be an MBR disk. Not sure if that makes any difference given the output
above...Performing DISKPART on the same disks shows the following (Don't mind the naming scheme, I know it can be a bit confusing)
Disk 1 (Cluster Disk 2):
HP P2000G3 FC/iSCSI Multi-Path Disk Device
Disk ID: {92EB716C-6878-42AD-B7DE-F3879D72E232}
Disk 3 (Cluster Disk 3):
HP P2000G3 FC/iSCSI Multi-Path Disk Device
Disk ID: {4F27BC43-6964-466E-A77D-2321B2B0B718}
================================================================
Comparing the two, it selects the correct DiskID that was taken from "cluster res" command.
The error in my initial post states a signature was expected. If I am not mistaken, in win2008 it uses "DiskSignature". The lack of this signature being populated for Cluster Disk 2 was resulting in the resources failing to come online. So
how can i go about fixing this signature issue. Again, all help is appreciated since I am fairly new to all of this.

HP D110 Printer Keeps Going Offline

My HP D110 keeps going offline and this is driving me crazy. You would think that there would be a clear solution to this by now, but there is not. Please DO NOT post an answer unless YOU KNOW it will work. I have been through hundreds, maybe thousands of solutions, and none of them work. The problem is not my computer because I have no issues with any of my other devices. None of the computers at my home can stay connected to this printer, so all of the computers are not faulty. I connect with my wireless router. Yes, I have a strong connection. Yes, it SOMETIMES works by restarting the computer but I should not have to do this every time!!!! Yes, I have went to the devices page and checked "print offline". I am so sick and tired of this advice because it DOES NOT work! The only solution: Completely uninstall the entire software package and reinstall it. This takes a long time and I am sick and tired of doing this every time I want to print off one email. Does anyone have a solution?

Mail keeps going off line

Ever since I got my iPhone my regular mail keeps going off line. I click to put it back online but that doesn't work. The only way I can get it back up is to restart my computer. Anyone else have this problem?

Hi Brenda,
Not much to go on so far, but let's start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
How do you connect to the Internet, and do Browsers quit working at the same time Mail does?
