Q: Yahoo Email Password Issues?

My Mac Mini keeps having issues with accepting my Yahoo email account password.  It keeps taking me offline and then requesting me to enter my Yahoo password.  I can go into Yahoo.com on Safari and it lets me right in?

 

I am not having any issues on my iPhone or iPad getting to my emails on Yahoo.  I have tried deleting the key chain and resetting it up.  I am also on the lastest verion of IOS...  Help! Not sure what to do from here....

Mac mini, iOS 5.1.1

    I'm having the same issue, but on my MacPro.  Latest versions, etc.  Due to Yahoo email hack...reset NEW password, now I can't re-install Yahoo Mail on computer...IT DOESN'T CONNECT TO SERVER.  There is an IMAP server error.  Need help, don't know what to do.

    I can access Yahoo email directly AND also from Iphone, but not MaC.  Frustrated!

    I just tried that....and I STILL can't get things to work.  This is just totally crazy!  It's not letting me connect to the server OR the server times out even when I convert to POP3

    What version of IOS are you running?
