Get error message saying "connect cannot connect to Yahoo server...Try later I have been trying for 24 hrs. Went to Apple store and someone else there having same problem....They took our phones and gave us new ones.....Same problem......They took a demo phone and used one of the store persons e-mail and there was no problem.

My problem got solved (probably just a fluke)

When I first got the new phone I used the cloud to restore it and everything except the yahoo mail got restored.


Recently I CONNECTED DIRECTLY to my computer and to Itunes and synced. Magically my Yahoo e-mail came back.


As I said I don't know if it was a fluke but it is certainly worth a try


Good Luck and let me know if it worked

Try many solution in my wife's iPhone5 still not work. Did try reset, restore, delete yahoo mail, add as a regular email account but none work for my wife's iPhone. Last night I use my computer to log in my wife's yahoo account without enter password. Then I click forgot password, follow the step to change password in yahoo mail(make sure you have secondary email so they can send you link to change password) after I change my password I add regular yahoo mail account in my wife's iPhone it work! Hope this help!
