Good to meet you, I’ve seen you’re fairly active on here so you know ‘what’s what’. What you described in your lengthy post (with images) is roughly what I went through a few months ago but after two days, I got it to work with the CardDAV and CalDAV accounts reappearing.
However, due to that previous “trauma” that info is now suppressed/buried and my memory of how to invoke the Yahoo dialog boxes you captured escapes me. I know they should be automatic but I don’t get them. I posted a long email here tonight but it’s not showing up in this thread for some reason.
Any advice? Am I going about it the wrong way by logging into Yahoo directly, then going straight to my Account information to recreate a new alt password and returning to eM Client and enter it during setup? The process works great until the eM Client setup page loads, absent of the CardDAV and CalDAV info in the General section, which means no calendar and a few more hours troubleshooting.
I’m trying to avoid completely removing all my other linked accounts to multiple email addresses and uninstalling the EMC application but that was the only solution last time (that required a forensic level removal of all EMC information off the computer/registry).
Add me to this club. My calendar disappeared on Sunday night Dec.8 and support has been little help. At the very least, I wish Gary had acknowledged this was a known problem. But, I’d rather focus on the calendar and the associated problems. The latest suggestion was to delete the whole account in eM Client and reload, which I stupidly did. Now I can’t get the account to reload. I keep getting Oops message indicating the OAuthorize error. I am on the Windows version 10.1.4588
Incredibly frustrating. I came to eM Client because Yahoo and Outlook could not synch and now the problem has followed me to eM Client. I know that the ultimate solution is to move my mail account, domain and website off of Yahoo. But I am trying to run my business, not be an IT Tech.
If you are using the eM Client automatic account wizard setting up your Yahoo account and "you are not getting those screens to “allow eM Client access to your Yahoo account”, then you need to login to your Yahoo Account online and click the “Recent Activity” menu at the top and then scroll down and remove eM Client Connected app.
@cyberzork@SRJ, thank you for the suggestion. I just replied to @SRJ with my hypothesis on how to restore functionality. I can tell you’ve been on forums for a while now. Can you take a look and see if I’m on the right track? Because it’s “so simple” I’m thinking it will naturally be a dead-end because nothing worth having comes easy. LOL
Hopefully this link will take you to my other post:
I added My Yahoo.com account to the Microsoft Outlook on Mac using the automatic account wizard which brought up the same OAuth token allow access screen as eM Client did, and the Yahoo Calendar and Contacts “both worked perfectly”. Yet same thing wont work in eM Client.

Thank you for the visual instructions. I just checked and I think the reason it may not have been obvious to me is I technically have a @sbcglobal.net account, which was absorbed in the past via merging companies and the layout is different.
I rooted around within the AT&T (a.k.a. Yahoo) site but Recent Activity is nowhere to be found (or I missed it). Thanks for the input though!
@Proteus & @SRJ you might need to contact your specific Yahoo technical support to see where the OAuth app tokens are kept. They must be “in a different location” but will be there somewhere within your account.
@cyberzork@SRJ - for me, it was an issue of a version of the unprompted 2FA called Secure Mail Key.
That was “Step 1” to recreate/regain access to my account after many years of solid, uneventful use. I believe that the reason mine “reset” was to active the increased security measures. Only re-establishing access didn’t fix the calendar (Card/CalDAV) problem.
Been emailing back and forth with customer support, after there requests for my account settings including CalDAV, IMAP and SMTP, they eventually replied this morning with.
"Thank you!
We are aware of this issue and we will be looking into it."
I have had the same problem for several weeks now, with my EM Client calendar. However, if I go directly to the yahoo mail website, I am able to view my full calendar details. There must be a problem somewhere with either EM Client or Yahoo, which needs sorting ASAP.
Sadly after using emClient for more than 15 years I think, I decided to abandon and have gone to a competitor. The issues were just becoming unworkable.
