After changing my password on my yahoo email account my iPhone and iPad both will not allow me to get into my account ! Each time it says server unavailable ! I can access my account via the normal pc route no problems .

Again, same problem here.

I changed my Yahoo! password via laptop and subsequently both iPhone and iPad are not able to gain access to Yahoo! mail using the Yahoo! client pre-loaded into the mail settings on both devices. I've tried a hard reset of both devices to no avail and get the message 'Server Unavailable' after deleting and attempting to set up the accounta on both devices again.

Any help woud be appreciated, especially as (one would assume) the Apple devices should be able to receive Yahoo! mail simply given the specific Yahoo! option in the mail settings.

Hi,

Following a long and lengthy Live Chat Session with Arash from Apple I discovered that turning off 'second sign-in verification' on my Yahoo! account enabled me to sync with the Mail app.

I hope this helps.

I am having the same problem. Barnizzel, where is the "second sign-in verification"? Is it in the iphone/ipad settings or in the actual yahoo mail settings? I cannot find this option.... Please help.

the problem comes from your second sign-in verification, go to your setting in your yahoo account then go to Edit your account info, then go to Manage your app password a new page come out, go to the Manage your app passwords box and write " my iphone mail" then press generate password, this will give you a long password this password you gonna use it ones in your iphone and ones in your ipad.

then go to your iphone open setting then go to your emails,contacts, calender. Then press yahoo account and go to your yahoo account information, erase the old password and enter the new long password and done.

hope work for you guys, did work for me.

Hi,

You can update your Yahoo mail password on your iPad and iPhone by going into the Mail, Contacts, Calender section in the settings and clicking on your mail account under Accounts. Click on your email address on the little screen that pops up. It will open up a page with all your account's info where you can update your password.

I did it and it works.

Hope this helps!

Try this, it worked.

sign in to you email account on a Mac or PC.

go to mail.

go to the little wheel at the top/right and select 'Account Info'. You may need to verify you password again at this point.

select 'Set up your second sign-in verification".

Follow the promps here. This will generate a one time password for you which you will enter into your iPhone/Ipad.

Did you changed your email information in the settings ?

I think that is the point you've missed or ?

Just have a look in the settings 🙂

hey try this 🙂

I have the same problem. Have you resolved this problem yet?! If so, please help!

Barnizzel's suggestion worked for me - Thank you 🙂

Barnizzel's suggestion worked for me too after a very frustrating 3 weeks of trying everything else.

Yahoo! mail settings.

Fabulous. Many thanks!
