Unable to sync Yahoo mail

[Markbuk1963]

Hi , I had trouble this morning syncing my yahoo and Google mail 

Went into settings and select sync on g mail and everything OK now

On Yahoo mail app cannot find sync option and when I go to mange account it does not let me sync it says sync off for all items and the sync is greyed out

I have deleted the accounts and app but still unable to get it to sync

I had the same problem. I deleted the yahoo app, made sure it was updated in the play store and signed into my account again and it is now fixed. I recently changed the notification sound to one from my phone and when I reset everything, it put the sound as the app system sound and it works now. Maybe you have to use the app system sound. My account sync is still grayed out and still says sync off for all items, but I am receiving notifications now. Don’t know if this is going to continue to work, but I tried everything and the only thing that worked is using the app system sound.

Hi Thanks PC681
I now get just vibration and no sound, but it works OK on my watch , when you said about changing the notification app sound what did you mean please

Hi Markbuk1963, you have to delete the app and reinstall it because the app system sound is not located in the phone’s notification sounds. Then, just sign back into your yahoo account after you reinstall it. Then, look under notifications in the yahoo settings to make sure the sound says app system sound. Hope this helps. 
I know in my phone I have some yahoo sounds that can be set, but I don’t know which one would work so I just uninstalled the app, updated it and reinstalled it and signed into my yahoo Again and it works now. I also had the same issue with messenger and did the same thing to get it to work.  I have a S25 plus.

Hi PC681 , I have looked all over the notification settings on yahoo and can't find the app system sound.
If I run the test it's says it's OK and I get sound and vibration

Open the yahoo app, tap on your profile picture, go to notifications, system settings, notification categories, tap mail from people and it should say app provided sound under sound. This is where you can change the sound. But leave it on app provided sound and hopefully it will work.

My phone did that also until I uninstalled and reinstalled the app. I guess that’s the only way to reset it. I also turned my phone off and on again, don’t know if that helped though. Good luck, hope you get it fixed. It’s kind of irritating.

I try to set up my Yahoo mail on my S25 ultra and a page comes up to Log in again, but the link will not work. I am about ready to return my phone. I am very upset with Samsung at the moment. I need my email on my phone. I have tried other email services and get the same problem.
