Motorola Atrix 4G :: Yahoo Email Gives Error Of Authentication
Jun 22, 2011
Two days ago my yahoo email stopped working and keeps saying "yahoo authentication error" I tried turning off and on my phone and deleting my account then set it up again but still no luck. Any suggestions beside factory reset?
About two weeks ago my yahoo mail stopped syncing in the default mail app with an authentication error. I saw that other people were experiencing the same thing and that it might have been because of a server issue. However, my account still won't sync. The Yahoo app is able to get to my email fine, so I know it's not a password problem. I've tried to delete accounts and clear out all data from the mail app, but it still won't work. My corporate sync account works fine in the same app. I tried to add my gmail account to the email app and it had the same problem even though the Gmail app can connect fine.
Since yesterday afternoon getting authentication error on all email account with droid 4. Connection error. [NO mechanism not available] Don't get email notifications, email not updating and won't manually. Was working fine oneverything before then.
I've added my Gmail account just fine, but my Atrix 2 gives me an error every time I try setting up Yahoo Mail. Error Login to the account failed, please try again.I've verified the name and password by logging in with my desktop computer.
i am trying to set up my my phone again after i got it back from repair sevice. i put in my second motorblur acct which i after used my 2nd email from yahoo.com. i try to add my main yahoo email to my account and it is not let me add it """it telling me login to the account failed,please try again"". i check the spelling and password it work on the pc and it work and on browers on atrix.
Its been almost a week with the Yahoo e-mail not working on my Atrix. The first few days it would work off and on. Now it keeps telling me connection error. I have removed the account several times and re-added it, and still dosn't seem to fix it. Just trying to use the basic e-mail that came with the phone. Phone is updated to .83.
both me and my wife have the Atrix 4G and both have not been getting update of our Yahoo e-mail, for the same acct., since 1/11/12. I deleted the acct. and re added it. Now it keeps pulling up some emails. but not all. Also, non of the archive folders are there.We both have a gmail acct. too and those are updating fine.
I noticed that I had not been receiving my yahoo mail lately and went to accounts and it showed under my Motoblur accounts. After not being able to get it to work I deleted the account to try and reinstall it. When I go to Add Account and select the Yahoo Mail icon under Motoblur accts then put in the email address and password I get an error msg "Login to the account failed, please try again." I have checked and rechecked that all of the info is correct and it is.
I set the account up fine using automatic settings. Receives mail but will not send it. For some reason you cannot access the mail server settings like you can with the other accounts.
The only time I can connect to Yahoo Mail (and download new messages or send messages) is when I am on ATT network and not on Wi-Fi.I have not changed anything in my Account settings -- I mean, the phone logs in just fine when "paying for data" using the ATT network, but cannot connect when on Wi-Fi.
I've had the Motorola Atrix for a few days now and I've found out that when I compose an email or try to reply one using the default app it gets stuck in the Outbox folder.
I've had the Motorola Atrix for a few days now and I've found out that when I compose an email or try to reply one using the default app it gets stuck in the Outbox folder. I didn't experience this bug with Gmail.
every time i try to download something from my web browser i get that same error '909 application authentication error' and this has been going on over a month now..
I don't remember the last time Track ID worked on my phone. It says "Authentication Error" after pressing the record button.
I've tried wiping the data in the apps manager. It worked fine in 1.6 and I can't remember if I've ever tried it on 2.1.
SE should really unpack this from their phones and offer it on the market keeping it free for SE users, it's a really great piece of software! but then again it would probably make this "authentication" problem more common for SE users if the phone HAS to autheticate it. Ah well..
So I have never had problems with my wifi, until yesterday. I realized the wifi was not on when I got a "Data usage warning" from my phone provider.
I looked at the wifi and it was not connected. When I try and connect to my home network (which my husbands phone, my ps3 and my pc are all connected to without issue) it gives me an "authentication error".
I would assume that would be the password or something, but the password is fine.
I have: - tried turning to airplane mode and back - tried changing it from "auto" to 2.4mghz only as in the troubleshooting guide - tried turning off always scanning - tried restarting the router and modem.
I have removed and readded my Yahoo email account. I can send a email from my yahoo account on my phone but I cannot receive emails on my yahoo account. The little icon shows that it is trying to load but it will not do it. I've had this issue since I updated my phone on June 2.
I have had it connected with no broblems for a week as I have a new router and all my other devices work of this router through wifi. Now my S5 wont connect have Put the PW in as it asked for and is the one on the back of the router and have made sure it is correct but still no go. I have rebooted the router in hope this would work but no go either.
Basically I was streaming a video on you tube the other night, until my Nexus 5 froze up. My phone was taking way too long to respond, so I decided to hold the power button until the device shut off, and I held the power button again to turn it back on. (duh) As soon as it turned back on, I was no longer able to connect to my home WIFI. So now whenever I try to connect to our home WiFi, I get an "authentication error" and the WiFi network status just comes up as 'saved" instead of "connected". My mobile Data works fine, it's just my WiFi that isn't working anymore. Did I accidentally fry a component within my Device that allowed me to connect to a WiFi network?
My Yahoo was working. Then I installed my work email with Corporate Sync. Yahoo worked for a few hours and then would not update. I have deleted and re-added. I can send emails from my Yahoo account to my work email but cannot download and view the emails in my Yahoo inbox. I have a Photon 4G. I have tried all steps through WI-FI, 4G, and 3G - with same result.
Having trouble connecting to my sbcglobal (managed by yahoo) email account all of a sudden.As of a few days ago, my new emails have not been appearing in my inbox even after refreshing. So I went into "my accounts" and into yahoo mail icon and deleted/reentered my password so I could connect. I kept getting error message "login to the account failed, please try again". So I then decided to completely remove the account under "my accounts" menu icon so that I can readd it. I then tried to readd it in two areas:
1. Under "email" menu icon I tried to re-setup the "yahoo mail" account- no luck, still received error message
2. Under "email" menu icon I tied to re-setup the "yahoo" account, chose already have a yahoo account, click sign in, enter my email address and password, check the "mail" and "sync" options, and then done. Nothing happens. So I go into the main menu option "my accounts"- I see my sbc account listed with the word sync under it. I go into it and it says it has been synced.Nothing has been updated. Prior to all this when I clicked the main menu "email" icon- my sbc/yahoo acct inbox pulled up automatically. Now when I click the "email" icon - I am prompted to setup an account from the services listed below: corporate sync, facebook, twitter, yahoo mail, yahoo, etc. I had my yahoo/sbc mail as my default account which is why when I previously clicked the "email" icon- my sbc/yahoo account inbox pulled up.I do not want to set up the yahoo droid application- I really want tp synch the account directly.How do I adjust the incoming/outgoing server settings on this phone. I see in other forums for similar issues that they can be adjusted. but where?
One of the big benefits of these phones is the ability to stay on top of email. I have a yahoo account and I have it loaded into my messaging app. Over the year that I've had this phone my yahoo occasionally has become deathly silent. Of coarse the android is not updating or even connecting to my account. This happened on average every couple of months. I've done a few things to try to get it back including deleting and reloading the account, updating the android os, messing with email settings. It usually eventually comes back on its own...within a couple of days. Its now getting to the point where I lose connectivity every week or two and its gone for that much time. This is really annoying and I don't keep on top of my emails nearly as effectively. I need to fix this. I'm not seeing alot of posts with the same issue though.
New to the Maxx and having a problem - I use the default Yahoo Email APP. When I click on FOLDERS, it doesn't show the few additonal Folders that exist in my YAHOO account online. The only ones displayable are: Inbox, Trash, Outbox, and Sent. These appear to be only Folders ON my phone -- not what exists in my online YAHOO account.. On my previous phone, there use to be a way to display those other folders ..
my yahoo mail account was recently disabled. i tried many times to login with my correct login info but i keep getting the same response...... "login to this account has failed, please try again"
Im not sure why since ive reset my photon the only issue im having is downloading .doc files - the attachment says unsupported file type. Ive downloaded apps like readers and a different yahoo app but no luck - still unable to download those attachments. I havnt found any know issues or anything to support what im saying so maybe Im the only one.
I received my device yesterday (August 04, 2011), and so far so good. I still need to figure out how to add my yahoo account and get my corporate email setup. If you would like to exchange information about the Photon
Since I did the current update I'm no longer getting my Yahoo (which is my primary account) email notifications (I was before the update). If I go in to check email I have messages. My Comcast accounts works fine. Background data is enabled.
Under "email settings" I have "Data Push" selected ( I even tried it with it unselected). I have fetch schedule "every 15 minutes" checked. I did notice that when I go into "Folder Sync" All the folders say "manual". I've also tried several battery pulls. If I go and open the email apps it does download the emails.
Is push for Yahoo Mail actually supported through the built in e-mail client? I have it enabled in the preferences, but it doesn't seem to work. I thought it was working when I first setup the account, but I may have been imagining things. I've gone through the process of deleting the account multiple times and also clearing the mobile settings/permissions in my yahoo account profile.
I have recently downloaded the new Yahoo mail app and after doing so I no longer receive a notification that I have received an email. I use light flow and it is set up properly for all other notifications.
