Today, my Yahoo email was hacked. I logged in and changed my pw and since then, when I go to Mail on my phone under settings, several options are grayed out (the first 4). Any idea how this happened or how I can get it fixed?

Obvious question, but when you changed the password, did you go into the phone settings and enter the right password? ๐คจ

That was my next move, but that's part of the section that's grayed out.

just delete it and re-add in that case

I wish I could...but that option isn't available either. Everything under the Accounts heading (under Mail, Contacts, Calendars) is grayed out so I cannot access those menu options (which includes swiping to the left). I'm out of options, short of doing a Master Reset but idk if that'll work either.

Try syncing it through iTunes, then going into your iPhone through there to go to the Mail and see what options you get.

Ahh, I got it. Settings-Restrictions-Allow Changes. Email option was turned off. Must've gotten turned off during the pw hacking b/c that section is protected by a different pw. What an easy fix. I was just about to reset factory settings when I discovered it. Thanks for the replies ๐

Awesome, I'll keep that in mind if anyone else ever has the same problem ๐

Perhaps a tall building or creating a "will it blend" video will help...
