changed my password on yahoo mail. Now my ipad and iphone cant access my yahoo account, keep getting a message?

changed my password on yahoo (think my account was hacked). Now I cant access yahoo on my iphone or ipad. Not getting any emails and I lost all my contacts. I know its not a phone issue because I connected other yahoo emails just to make sure. I deleted and tried re installing the email on my phone but keep getting the message Yahoo! Server Unavailable Please Try Again Later. I sent an email to Yahoo Services this morning and have yet to hear anything back. What is going on and how can I fix this issue. WHY IS MY PRIMARY BUSINESS EMAIL LOCKED OUT OF MY MOBILE DEVICES?

I have already done that Justin. And then I keep getting the message "Yahoo! Server Unavailable: Please Try Again Later". I know the issue isn't my phone because I added a different yahoo email just to make sure. The only email it is locking me out of is my primary. Same situation on the Ipad. They will accept all emails except this one. I don't know why Yahoo has locked out my mobile devices.

Try this: on the problem device/s, open the web browser and login to mail.yahoo.com.
Log in as normal and complete that. Come back to your Settings and re-add the account or re-enter the password. Should work now.

You need to do this for each device

I did not realize that changing my password would create such havoc. It should be easier to update my account on my ipad. Deleting my account and then adding a new account worked. But it should be easier. There should be an option to update my password on my ipad without all the confusion. I was without email for 3 days, because I did not realize what the issue was. A pop up or message saying I need to sign into my account would have saved me a lot of time, energy and effort.

this will solve the problem for IPAD (there is two places to change the password )
1. Go to "Settings"
2. then "Mails, Contacts,and Calendars"
3. Chose yahoo account
4. For Incoming Server :
enter your email user name and the new email password

5. For outgoing server :
enter your email user name and the new email password

that s it
