Yahoo works on iPhone mail but not iPad2 mail

I have an Mac, Google and a Yahoo mail account.  The Mac and Google work on the MBP, iPad2 and iPhone with both the mail app and via Safari log in.  Yahoo works on the MBP and iPhone via Mail and Safari but does not work on the iPad2 via the Mail App but wil work on the iPad2 via Safari.  I have deleted the account from my iPad2 and tried to reinstall it but i keep getting a message that the "Server is not available, please try again later".  This is the same error message I got from my iPad Mail app before I tried deleting the Yahoo account and reinstalling it.  This problem started about a week ago.  The only added App was an EMail Client on the MBP - Inky.
MBP is on 10.8.2, OS X Safari is 6.0.2, iPhone & iPad2 are on IOS 6.0.1, 
Any ideas would be appreciated,  Thanks,
Bill

  • My iCloud password is working on iPhone 5s but not working on iPhone 6 anybody help

    My iCloud password is working on iPhone 5s but not working on iPhone 6 anybody help

    Tony,
    My first thought is to make sure that you are actually logged in using the same AppleID on both devices.  Many folks share one AppleID for their family's iTunes Store account yet use another personal AppleID to log into iMessage settings and iCloud settings.
    To confirm that the AppleID and password you are using is correct I would suggest visiting http://icloud.com and attempting to login there.  If you get in, then you know for sure that that is a valid AppleID/password pair.
    If that still doesn't reveal the issue then I would try opening Notes app on both iPhones, and then typing your password out where it can be seen clearly.  This may reveal if your are typing it differently due to iOS 8 changes in the shift key indicator, or possibly that a screen protector or case is causing your touches to not register the same on both devices.
    I hope these suggestions help.

  • Hi All, I have an Issue with iMessages working from iphone 4s but not from macbook air

    Hi everyone, I'm new to MAC's but have had an iphone for a while, so much so I had an iphone 4 but got an iphone 4s, I gave my 4 to my dad, and after recantly buying a MBA tried to imessage the old man but his name turns red and will not allow me to  send a message, I can however imessage him from my phone, I have the same issue with two other friends, but I know Imessage works on my MBA as I have two other people it works with (On the side the group Imessage is so cool) we did have an issue with facetime not recognising him untill he switched it off and on from system prefrance on his iphone, not sure if this is related or if this is a MBA issue or iphone issue, but could do with some help as I'm an Apple convert and I'm now hoping to convert the old man who loves microsoft, I told him how 'Apple just work' and at the moment have egg on my face
    Please help all surgestions greatlly reacived

    When sending a message from Mountain Lion's Message program, you should be careful about the recipient's address.  When you send a message to your dad, you should send it to his iPhone's phone number.
    Also, on your Mac's Messages > Preferences > Accounts, you should be logged in under your Apple ID (which is hopefully different from your dad's).
    Enjoy your Apple gear!  Indeed, it does "just work".

  • AirTunes works with iPhone 4, but not iTunes 10.1.1 on MBP

    I cannot figure out why AirTunes will not work with my MacBook Pro. I know it is not the AirPort Express that is the problem, since I can play my iPhone through it. I can select the AirPort Express and the attached speakers in iTunes, but while it looks like it is playing, no sound comes out.
    I am using iTunes 10.1.1 on a MacBook Pro with OS X 10.6.6 and an AirPort Express with 7.5.2 version firmware. Enable AirTunes is selected, which makes sense since the iPhone can find it.
    I am not sure if these logs actually explain anything, but I've included them just in cases:
    The log on the AirPort Express when I try to play music from my iTunes says: Jan 09 22:23:01 Severity:4 AirTunes stream from fe80::21c:b3ff:fec0:6e8b%bridge0 started.
    The log on the AirPort Express when I play music from my iPhone says: Jan 09 22:25:23 Severity:4 AirTunes stream from 10.0.1.7 started.
    I would greatly appreciate any help that you guys may have. I have been trying to figure this out for weeks.

    if you set a alarm as a single day each night it will ring at the right time just not if you have a reoccurring alarm

  • The hyperlinks work on Iphone 5 but not on Android, please help

    I am creating a cloud based portfolio with Indesign 6 and folio builder for everyone at work. I have tested it on the Iphone 5 and everything works fine. I've shared the portfolio with people with a samsung phone and they can view it but none of the hyperlinks work. Can you help?
    Just a follow up, Spoken to Adobe and after waiting a hour, they say hyperlinks won't work on an android device. His exact words were, 'thats a problem with 'apple', call them'!!!
    Really smart people working at adobe, well done.

    Hi, I'm trying to hyperlink to another page in the folio builder. I'm using the Adobe Viewer but it's not working on the Samsung Galaxy S3.
    An example is to press on a button to go to a page setup with  images.
    Is there a different viewer I can use on the Android to the Adobe Viewer??

  • Yosemite/iOS 8 - Airplay audio working from iPhone 6 but not from macbook

    I have a 2012 macbook pro that I've just upgraded to Yosemite and a new iPhone 6. My airplay setup is a Pioneer VSX-1121 receiver that has built-in airplay. My iPhone can connect via airplay to the receiver and it works perfectly to play all my audio. My laptop however, cannot. When I use option-click to click on the speaker icon in the bar I even see the icon for my receiver there - but when I click on it nothing happens.
    In the System Preferences I can't see it in the sound panel though...
    Here is the output of Console when I attempt to connect to the speakers:

    I don't have any logs of a successful attempt so I'm not sure what that looks like in Yosemite..any help appreciated.
    For the record, I've tried a PRAM and SMC reset to no avail.

    THis "fix" maybe for the missing AirPlay icon in iTunes. But it wouldn't hurt to try it for this issue. I had the missing icon, did this and it worked. I also re enabled the IPv6 and it continued to work.
    1) open control panel.
    2)Choose Network and internet
    3)Select the VIEW NETWORK STATUS TASKS under NETWORK and SHARING CENTER section
    4) Choose the active network connection. It is usually name " wireless Network Connection 1" or something similiar.
    5) Click the properties button
    6) If the Internet PROTOCOL VERSION 6(TCP/IPv6) is checked, uncheck it, then click OK.
    7) Click CLOSE
    8) Restart iTunes and try to use the Home Sharing feature again.

  • 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. 

  • Apple wireless keyboard OK with iPhone, but not iPad2

    My wireless keyboard types correct symbols on my iphone 5, but not on my iPad2.  It does type the correct letters, but most of the symbols (both when in "lower case" and caps lock) are different from what's on the keyboard.  How can I adjust my iPad2 so the keyboard types the correct symbols. Virtually all the **** numbers plus symbol keys type symbols different from what's on the keys, though most of the symbols are covered by some other keys.  It's just not feasible to go searching by typing 10 or 20 keys to find one symbol, and then not to know whether to use the Shift, Ctrol, Option or Command or maybe even fn and then which key to guess will get the symbol I need.
    Please advise.

    Thanks for replying, very kind. I'm unable to log into my account.. As a guest, I'm not able to get access to any of my system preferences.
    I think my imac has accidentally paired with my new apple tv remote.. I bought apple tv yesterday, was very excited but now wish I hadn't connected it. I'm unable to work on my imac which is very problematic on a workday.
    How can I unpair the apple tv remote from my imac if I cannot get access to my system preferences to unpair any devices?

  • HT5787 How can I change an old email to a new one? For some reason my old email comes up on my iPhone - and I don't get access to change to my new email which I have on my iCloud account on my pc. My AppleID works on my pc, but not on my iPhone!

    How can I change an old email adress on my iCloud accout to my new email (the same as on my pc), as long as my Apple ID works on my pc but not on my iPhone?

    You would have to change it back to your old email address in order to turn off "Find My iPhone" on your devices. After you changed it back to your old address and deactivated "Find My iPhone" (activation lock) you could change your Apple ID to your new address again. Now it should wok on all your devices.

    the screen on my iPhone is frozen and I can access apps through Siri. The touch screen works within the apps but not in the home screen. What do I do?

    Have you tried a reset which is similar to a computer restart and is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release?
