When someone texts me or emails me my 5s does not update correctly. I receive texts an hour later.. Emails longer. My incoming calls often don't show up and it does not ring.

Check your email setup on your device to make sure user name and password are correct. Have you tried another device for email? You may have to update your profile or contact your providers.

Also, make sure nothing is in your Outbox folder. If any emails are stuck in this folder, it will cause issues.

First step would be to look at the settings for incoming emails (POP3 or IMAP). Make sure that the server and port settings are correct. Also check if your provider didn't recently change the requirements for authentication, meaning that you may need to specify a username and password in order to retrieve emails. Most email softwares have settings for this.

Check your setup mail settings it sounds as if you are repeatidly sending the same emails, but are unable to receive any messages or updates.

How do you access your Yahoo mail? Is it via the browser (www.yahoo.com) or via MS Outlook?

If you're having a problem of sending/receiving emails while using the web browser, you may want to delete old and unnecessary emails. You could have reached the storage limit of your email account.

But if your using an Outlook, you need to double-check the account settings. Make sure that you have the correct user name, password, incoming and outgoing servers, incoming and outgoing ports.

If you setup your email account using the POP protocol, you may use these server ports:

Incoming: 110 or 995
Outgoing: 25 or 2525, or 587, or 465 (SSL)

For IMAP:

Incoming: 143 or 993
Outgoing: 25 or 2525, or 587, or 465 (SSL)

If the same problem occur, you may try to delete your account and recreate it. Please bear in mind that if you deleted your account and recreated it, some emails may no longer appear or get downloaded.

Thank you and good luck!

Hi,
Make sure that you have the correct incoming port number. The usual port number for incoming is port 110.

Thanks

Never respond to any email requesting id or passwords.

MSN/hotmail uses a spam filtering system. You may just need to check the spam/junk mail folder for the missing emails. Spam filters are not perfect and sometimes grab valid email.

If your outgoing messages are being blocked, someone may have reported you as a spammer. You will need to call Microsoft to get id unblocked.

To get the cursor to appear, you have to start either a reply or forward of the original message. That will put the message into "editing mode". Then you can use your cursor to point where you want to make comments. I suggest you make your text a different color than all the other text.

You probably need to check your time zone settings in Yahoo...

on the upper right-hand corner just above your yahoo mail inbox, you'll see an options link... select mail options.

when you get to that page, click on 'accounts' in the left-hand menu, and once in that page, click on add or edit an account.

in this next page, click on account information, you may be prompted for your password before continuing....

once you get in there... look for 'Time Zone' and see if yours isn't some hours ahead of what it should be.... if so, click on the edit link for that section, and change this to your correct time zone.

that should do the trick!
