Yahoo Server unavailable

My daughter had her yahooo account hacked last night so today we changed her password.   Went into change her password on her IPOD and it keeps coming up Server Unavailable pleasy try again later.  then after that i get "the Operation couldn't be completed. (MFMessageErrorDomain error 1032)
We have been trying now for 9 hours.
I have tried the following
Deleting the account settings on the Ipod. clearing safari Resetting the ipod. then setting the account up from scratch
resetting up the accounts manually using Imap.mail.yahoo.com  and imap.apple.mail.yahoo.com and mail.yahoo.com (no calendars or contacts so not a suitable solution.  and caldav doesnt work)
i can get in from a PC,  Kindle Fire and using the Ipod Safari page no problems.
IOS is 6.1.2 and it all worked fine yesterday.
anyone able to shed any further light on this.
regards
Kris
and before any smart alec says search the forums i have done. and its not a yahoo issue as my Ipad mail and my Sons IPOD mail clients get mail from yahoo fine.

I have been looking at a similar issue for over a week, this most frustrating thing I have every known and the lack of support or answers is amazing.  It has to be an iOS issue, but I haven't managed to fix it yet.
Have a look at my post "Yahoo mail connectivity issues - Yahoo Server unavailable" from 5 days ago, the only update is from me :-) .. sounds like a similar issue. 
Just glad I use Android OS devices ......... as the iPod is my daughters. 
I'll update your post if I fix the issue I am having

  • Yahoo server unavailable.  I am not able to get into yahoo account. iPhone 4S

    Yahoo server unavailable.  I am not able to get into yahoo account to check/send email.  I have a new iPhone 4 S. 
    Can anybody help.
    Thanks.

    When setting up you email, do not click on the Yahoo!  Use "Other" and follow the promps.  Use imap.mail.yahoo.com as your Incoming Mail Server, and smtp.mail.yahoo.com as your Outgoing Mail Server.
    This should fix it

  • TS4069 Has anyone resolved the yahoo server unavailable on the iPad when trying to rest email account

    Has anyone resolved the yahoo server unavailable issue with iPad

    the issues are on Yahoo's end. They have been updating/upgrading their servers for the past few weeks, and when they are working on the server your mail is on, you will experience outages.
    Usually all you can do is just wait it out or try a different way to access. For example I accessed my mail via safari when mine weren't working.

  • New ipad - trying to get yahoo mail to work but it keeps saying yahoo server unavailable.....any ideas?

    I have set up my yahoo email account on my new ipad but can't get it to work - the error message says yahoo server unavailable which I find hard to believe! Can anyone help me please?

    I checked the settings as per your link above and I have them set up correctly on my ipad (I have yahoo plus). That is to say I have added the plus.stmp.mail.yahoo.com as an outgoing server with the server port 465 but it still doesn't work.
    Annoyingly, I also took the advice of some earlier posts and changed my yahoo password and now I can't get email on my iphone 4 either - it was working perfectly before. I put in the new password and now both the ipad and iphone give me the "server unavailable" message.  Grrrrrr....

  • Yahoo server unavailable on new iphone 5

    Just got my new iphone 5 and the yahoo mail does not work - it says:  yahoo server unavailable.  did I miss a step?

    This link helped me with the same problem. Instead of creating your email account using the yahoo choice in settings, choose "other" and set up your yahoo account as explained in this link:

  • HT201320 what does it mean you get the message "yahoo server unavailable"

    I keep getting the mesage "yahoo server unavailable" when I try to setup my yahoo mail on my iPad and iPhone; but I can access the account on a computer using a browser.  Does anyone know why I am getting this message?

    This sounds like a message from the Amazon Kindle app, asking whether you want to navigate to the furthest page you have read in that book.  The furthest page read should be sync'd across all devices on which you used Kindle to read that same book.

  • My mail is telling me Yahoo server unavailable when i know its not and I cant get mail

    my mail is telling me Yahoo server unavailable when i know its not and I cant get mail

    This most likely means that either the server is unavailable, or your email settings are corrupted. Try deleting the account, rebooting the phone, and adding it back.

  • HT4061 I cannot add my email account...for 2 days it keeps saying, yahoo server unavailable...but I have it on my computer!!

    I cannot add my yahoo email account to my iphone. I have been trying for 2 days and it keeps saying Yahoo server is unavailable...I can access my email on my computer, and was also able to add another email account to my iphone, but not the yahoo account.

  • Yahoo mail connectivity issues - Yahoo Server unavailable

    I had my Yahoo mail account configured on my iPod touch 4th Gen for over 6 months, suddenly I was prompted to add my "caldav" password and I could not access my mail.  I tried so many things to get it working suggested on the internet and forums and eventually deleted the account from the iPod to try and det in working.
    I still get "Server unavailable" when setting it up ...... access to email via Safari works OK
    1. There is no issues with my Yahoo password.
    2. Deleted and re-created my account on the iPod (after power cycle etc)
    3. Actually tried another Yahoo account - still no joy
    4. Tried adding an account as "Other" using Yahoo's IMAP & SMTP settings to push mail .......... it just says checking for mail
    5.  Added "other SMTP" server to outgoing mail etc ...... using smtp.mail.yahoo.com
    Nothing seems to work.  Anybody any ideas?  This is the most frustrating thing I have ever known .............
    Many thanks
    Hope someone can point me in the right direction

    It gets even stranger ....... although my Yahoo account won't actual connect to the Yahoo mail servers via iOS mail client and it does not have the ability to receive emails, I can select a photo image and select "email photo" the standard iOS client send email screen is displayed and I can send the image and subject with text to any email address and it is received OK.  When I load the iOS mail client and go into sent items the email is there to confirm it was sent via the client.
    I still can't pull email and but can send directly from the client itself, after the email is sent I receive the following :-
    Cannot get mail
    No password provided for "Yahoo!".
    Please go to your mail account settings and enter a password
    Of course I have tried entering the valid password, but it just gets rejected with the usual "Server unavailable"
    Madness ... it must be a corruption of the local Mail client surely?  Anyone seen this before and how to fix?
    Help appreciated

  • Why is the Yahoo server unavailable?

    I updated my iPhone on Saturday. Since then, I haven't been able to use the Yahoo server. A message pops up & states it's not available; it says try later. Also, it keeps prompting me to enter my password to my Yahoo account. I enter it & the message pops up again Why???? I reset my networks in the settings filed as advised & it still doesn't work.

    This is how I fixed it on my new iPhone 5S. Using the standard yahoo setting on my phone.
    You will have to access  "managing your app passwords" on your account profile for yahoo. Generate password for your app. For example: "My iPhone 5S'
    Go to your Iphone and set up your yahoo mail account on your phone the normal way and you have to use the generated password.  instead of the yahoo account password.

  • TS3899 my 4s keeps saying yahoo server unavailable why?

    my 4s keeps saying yahoo server unavailabl why?

    Yahoo has dozens, if not hundreds of servers. Just because one device is accessing a specific server, does not mean that another one gets the same server.
    Yahoo's servers are notoriously bad.
    All you can do is wait.
    While you're waiting, create a gmail account.

  • Yahoo Server Unavailable on 2 iphone 4S's

    I just got my wife a new iPhone 4S from Verizon, and I am unable to setup her Yahoo Account, and when I try her account on my iPhone 4S it states the samething as server uavailable.  However, I have had my Yahoo Account setup perfectly fine on my phone, and it connects to the Yahoo Mail Server.  I have tried multiple times to delete and re-add the account, and nothing works.  Her gmail account, however, was setup with no issues or fuss.  I just find it odd, that her email on yahoo will not function on a phone that already has a yahoo email account setup. 
    So please can you let me and the community know what the fix action is?
    This is very frustrating.  I will try adding my account to her phone, and see if it works.
    I have restored / reset the phone to out of box environment and that did not solve the issue.
    iPhone 4S iOS 5.1.1

    None of the above provided users provided anything that assisted me in solving my issues.  In the future, I will not use these forums to get assistance.  I will speak with apple directly regarding my issues with future problems with my Apple Products and services.  I feel the above people copped the attitude, and therefore caused me to speak in a tone that was progressively getting worse. 
    This has been a very negative experience for a new user to the community forum that apple provides. 
    My wife was able to get it to work on her own with no intervention from apple or yahoo. 
    The error messages that we received on our phones were very vague and lacking of anything important.  I would imagine that a multi-billion a year company would take consideration into providing more detailed errors then "Server Unvailable".  That is very vague, and as a seasoned IT Professional I would expect more from an application that deals with Mail.  Not only would it provide users with more information to assist them in diagnosing / reporting issues but it would prevent users like me from having negative experiences at support sites.  I chalk this up to the same quality of support that VALVe Software provides its uers whe solving issues. 
    Due this experience, I would recommend that people use android or microsoft powered phones for better support.

  • HT201320 Yahoo! server unavailable error

    Just got a new Iphone5 in UK but when setting up email account for Yahoo Mail, I got this Yahoo Server unavailable error. Anyone has any idea please?

    I have a yahoo.com account and a rocketmail.com account, both via yahoo.  I found this information on a yahoo board and it worked for both my accounts.  I had to delete the account on the phone and set it backup in both cases.
    Close the mail app on the iphone and go to a computer, sign in to your yahoo mailaccount and do the verification that it pops up. If there is no such thing that pops up then go back to your iphone and do the following:
    1.) Delete the yahoo mail account on your iphone.
    2.) Add mail account using "other" instead of "Yahoo!" and setup as IMAP account.
    3.) Use the following information:
    - username MUST include @yahoo.com at the end
    - incoming server = imap.mail.yahoo.com
    - outgoing server = smtp.mail.yahoo.com
    - always retype your password
