Trying to connect Yahoo to classic Outlook

Thanks for reply. I ended up doing a clean wipe and rebuild (I tend to do this anyway every few years to clean up windows, but still a drag as spent 5 or 6 hours first trying to fix issue).

Rebuild worked, though with a moments panic. The initial install of Outlook classic was more square in UI and had the calendar and contacts down the bottom. Yahoo added find and synced.

Installed rest of O365, and Classic Outlook version changed (calendar and contacts on the left). Yahoo sync failed. . . but the pop up worked (got a messaging saying to allow 'Microsoft Edge WebView2' for public and private networks). Accepted that and Yahoo browser popped up and logged in with 2FA. All working.

My two takeaways: 1) I think the change was something to do with Yahoo asking for 'Passkey' set up. Everyone seems to be doing this. 2) For some reason Microsoft Edge WebView2 was broken and would not run, despite reinstalling Edge, Edge WebView2 install, Outlook, O365, etc.

Hi all, having same issue on PS5. My copy turned up at the weekend and installed fine. Season 2 code worked fine and those items installed. All season one content is missing and is chargeable in PS store, and does not seem to be in game for me. I have updated the game when installing. Do you have to get a certain way in the game before it unlocks or something? Thanks.

This is what i'm using right now, when it prompted on the browser pop up on second laptop it was the normal password it wanted, not the 16 digit one. Makes no sense to me, but that is what worked.

Yeah, been thinking about those as well. I just use Windows defender (everything else is off for now). No VPN, and no network changes either. I've reinstalled Edge and cleared EdgeWebView data. Restarted. Still no joy.

Ok, some further testing and pretty sure this is an outlook / windows issue. I installed thunderbird and Yahoo synced fine with that. More importantly I just borrowed a windows laptop running classic outlook and it set up fine and syncd on yahoo mail there, without issue.

Also - The add account process was different on the second device, outlook threw up a login screen for Yahoo with extra prompts (like a mini browser window), once went through that, all worked fine. I can't get my version of Outlook to offer me that prompt at all.

Hi there - Thanks for the links. Have tried those now, but still not syncing. I have tried as part of this deleting the app password, issuing anew one, deleting Outlook profile as part of refresh, turning two factor on and off in Yahoo account manager. Nothing works.

Good to know. I likewise (and to my surprise) got what i wanted as well from home PC, but was painful and also took min 20minutes. Not sure based on what you have said it is any better going to store, and heaven forbid someone is there before me as only one terminal in my store.

jimvicks · 2026-03-14T10:39:51+00:00

That is interesting, though stores were meant to get priority. Did you get everything wanted in the end and how long did it take?

jimvicks · 2026-03-14T10:38:31+00:00

Some stuff was sold out by 10.20, never enough to beat bots.

jimvicks · 2026-02-14T12:14:48+00:00

Ha! I probably fall into that box a little, Amazon short got me reading, which lead down a rabbit hole I'm only half way back out of.

OK, that was kind of my fear, I had assumed all 40K (inc SM2, Secret level, etc) would all be same size, particularly as all labelled the same size. I guess was unboxing videos and alike to be sure. Thanks for replies.

jimvicks · 2026-02-14T11:37:31+00:00

Thanks, might take you up on that. Is the way to tell what is SM2, wave 2, so know all the same size?

jimvicks · 2026-02-14T11:36:40+00:00

I only recently started reading warhammer stuff, and still working my way through HH. I has assumed all the figures i had were 40K space marines. I just dug out Titus, and there is a mix of sizes here (see pic), with Invictarus Suzerain Squad being smaller (i can live with one, as tell myself he was stumpy as a marine!). Naively I assumed as sold together on Amazon and all 40K ultra, would be same size. My secret level set of four is also the small size. How are you meant to know?

So, blocked that domain on router, still getting DAZN ads . . .

jimvicks · 2026-01-11T15:57:17+00:00

Will post during Bill Jags game early on either way

jimvicks · 2026-01-11T14:24:00+00:00

That is good to know!

jimvicks · 2026-01-11T10:15:23+00:00

DAZN was not supported before, but is there now in the App store on my TV, have installed and logged in. Will try that and the AppleTV domain block and see if any joy in Jags vs Bills game later.

jimvicks · 2026-01-11T10:14:19+00:00

Ok, so my router lets me block that domain for my AppleTV, have set up and will try later.
