Btmail.... yahoo bookmarks.... unable to access si...

I hope this posting is in the correct forum. apologies if not.
Overnight on Tues/Wed 23/24 September I was 'converted to BTmail, immediately I noticed that my connection to my bookmarks through the yahoo toolbar had gone 'awol'.... on clicking on the red ribbon icon I am being presented with a 'Sign in to Yahoo' form. This has never happened before and my bookmarks were available on Tuesday afternoon but not on Wednesday. I have gone through yahoo's systems to find what they refer to as 'alternate ids' linked to my btinternet.com email address.
One of these I recognise. I set it up over 10 years ago - the other is a combination of my forename and a 6 digit number (say peter123456) I have never set up this yahoo id and have never had any knowledge of it. My theory is that when I moved to btbroadband a 'psuedo btyahoo login' was created so that access to yahoo tool bar and bookmarks was seamless when I accessed the internet.
I only started to use yahoo bookmarks when I converted to broadband in Feb 2006 - the fact that all my bookmarks are available on all computers I use has been a boon. I have telephoned BT for help - they have failed to come back to me when they promised to (experience with BT tells me this is their 'ignore him and he'll go away customer care service) and of course I am being told that I have done something to cause this... not them!
I also contacted Yahoo .... who promptly told me to contact BT....
I knew that when I was converted to BTmail I would lose Draught emails, Calenders and 'email rules'. I was never told that the 'link' to the yahoo bookmarks would disappear. Obviously I could now start using IE Favorites but that is not what I require.
Hopefully someone can help and help me get back into my bookmarks or fast-track me to someone from BT, BTyahoo or Yahoo who can.

Thank you for responding again Keith.... however...
You state...
The bookmarks were part of the BT Yahoo home page, and not part of BT Yahoo mail, so were not covered by the email migration.
Yahoo mail customers still have the bookmarks on their Yahoo home page.
Yes they may have been part of the BT Yahoo home page - and I only started using them when I became a BT broadband customer for reasons already stated. BT have now unlinked me, without warning, from these bookmarks overnight on Tues/Wed last week.
Its usually best to store your bookmarks locally, on your computer. All web browsers allow you to backup your bookmarks. I use the Firefox browser, and that has a backup facility.
Yes, but why should I think I should need to backup data held on a remote server... hindsight is a wonderful thing
The other option is to look at your web browser history, you should be able to revisit some recent pages, and bookmark them again.
I don't think this is really a viable option.... but thanks!
It looks like Yahoo have done away with bookmarks on their home page.
https://toolbar.yahoo.com/?.intl=uk&.promo=bookmarks
This page simply tells me that bookmarks are only available from the icon on their toolbar... which is the way I had been using them. And would continue to do so if someone from BT, BTYahoo, or Yahoo would let me know how I was being automatically signed in prior to Tuesday night when BT ceased to automatically sign me in using a user/password combination that I was never made aware of.
Cheers

It sounds like you might need to contact Yahoo! if you aren't able to setup your email account as a new account after deleting it.
I found some links on the Yahoo! website that might help:

I am unable to access my yahoo mail account

I am unable to access my yahoo mail account on my iphone 4S, i hve tried to add it but keep getting the message "server unavailable try back later" Can someone help me with this

When you were entering your new password in mac mail for your Yahoo account, you didn't perchance change the user name from [email protected] to just name without the @att.net? I only ask because I've done that, and att.yahoo mail requires a fully qualified [email protected] for access.
In mail, you might click on window on the menu bar, then connection doctor. On the account with the red dot next to it, it will tell you why it can't connect, and if you click on it, you'll be taken to where you can fix it.

When I try to open yahoo bookmarks (red button) on Firefox I get a "page not valid" or some otgher error message (works okay with Explorer.

I recently done an upgrade on my PC (can't remember what). since then I haven't been able to open or log in to my Yahoo bookmarks (red button on tool bar). I get a log in screen, but when I log in with my Yahoo ID and password, I get "This page expired" error message. I've gone the the help menu and reset my yahoo password, but it still won't let me log into yahoo bookmarks with Firefox. If i use Explorer, it works fine. I like Firefox, but I need to be able to access yahoo bookmarks.

Since last two days, I am unable to access my email at hotmail but there is no problem with gmail

my mail id is [email protected] Am unable to access this with Firefox but opens with GoogleChrome. Since I have been using Firefox for 10 years I do want to use it. Other pages and Bookmarks open with Firefox -- problem is only with my hotmail account. It is accessible from my ipad too.

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings, disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
*In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
*In previous Firefox versions, click on the Firefox button at the top left of the Firefox window and click on ''Help'' (or click on ''Help'' in the Menu bar, if you don't have a Firefox button) then click on ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".<br>
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.

HT201320 Changed apple ID and my icloud account. Ever since this change, I am unable to access my email?

I changed my apple ID and my icould account. Ever since this change, i am unable to access my email. everytime i open my Yahoo Inbox, I get this msg saying "Cannot Get Mail" "The connection to the server failed". but 'm on wifi and can access all sorts of pages and games. My Cellular data for my email is "on"
The email opens but it does not upload new emails.

If you use iCloud as well, you can try adding it back to your accounts as well. I have 7 email accounts (including iCloud and a Yahoo account) in mail on my iPhone and iPad and have no problems with them. I suspect it was not removing iCloud that fixed your problem, it was the re-entering the Yahoo account login credentials (maybe they just got corrupted - could be as simple as that).
If you do add iCloud back, and it causes problems right away with your Yahoo, then you should send a ticket in to the iCloud support folks as that would seem to be something not working correctly?

Also if you actually deleted the iCloud account, remember you can keep the account, and just disable it for mail in the iCloud settings (so you can keep using iCloud for other features even if you do not want to use iCloud mail).

Unable to Access Router Admin Page

So I have a weird situation where my router is working fine to allow me access to the internet, yet I am unable to access the router administration page, 192.168.1.1 This occurred after the router froze up tuesday. I reset the router to factory defaults and have since been able to get online, but not access admin page. Router is a Linksys WRT-54GS V 7
Modem is motorolla SB1505
ISP is earthlink, but in NYC so its actually off the Road Runner network. Cable connection obviously. - I attempted to access 192.168.1.1 with both Mozilla Firefox and IE 8. FIrefox gives an "Unable to connect" error message. IE 8 redirects me to search engine results (yahoo in this case).
-Ipconfig confirms default gateway and DHCP server is 192.168.1.1, subnet mask 255.255.255.0
- I am able to ping the router with <1ms times.
- I have tried resetting router to defaults again, but same issue occurs.
- I am able to get online and access web pages, etc.
- Tried resetting up the router using the Linksys setup program, but it error every time saying "please connect router for broadband"
- Router worked fine with me able to access admin page until it froze up yesterday.
- Wireless works fine. Though the network is unsecure atm, since I can't access router admin.
- I've also tried disconnecting all other devices from the router except my computer and modem. Still wont let me access router. System is running windows 7 PRO, fully updated. However, I can't access the router either on 2 other computers at home which run windows XP PRO SP3. System Specs CPU: Intel i5 running at stock speeds
Mobo: Gigabyte P55-UD4P
Ram: Gskill Ripjaw, 4 gb DDR3-1600 7-7-7-21
HD: Intel X-25 M 80 gb G2.
PSU: Corsair CMPSU 750 TX
GPU: Diamond ATI 5850 Anyone have any ideas on whats wrong here? Did i miss something obvious? Would greatly appreciate any help as having an unsecure wireless network in the middle of NY isn't the best idea. Thanks!

I am once again unable to access the on-line Router admin page. When I use the EasyLink Advisor and click ADVANCED settings it pulls up the browser but goes nowhere. If I type in the address directly it does the same thing. The address I'm typing is correct. I know because if I unplug the router for a minute, I can get on using the EasyLink or entering the address directly into the browser. Then I sign in and can access the pages.
Why do I have to keep resetting the router to access the router admin pages? It doesnt matter about virus protection, firewall, what version of Windows I'm using, what browser I'm using...the only thing that matters is resetting the router.
And now I have a new problem. When I attempt to go online with my new netbook, it causes my wired-to-the-router desktop to loose the connection, even though I reset the router and "added it as a new device".
I was using Homegroup to access the netbook the first day I got it. Now I cannot access the netbook or the network from the netbook, without resetting the stupid router every single time. I am not using mac address filtering and have the router set to allow 9.
Getting fed up with this router and I never get an answer from Linksys as to why I can never access the router admin pages without resetting the stupid router.
I can get the netbook on other people's wireless networks (using their password) but cannot get onto my OWN using my password.
Does anyone have any ideas? I'll try anything before yanking this thing out and buying a different brand of router. Yeah I'm mad, sorry.
Wired desktop Windows 7 Home Premium 64/IE8/using Windows firewall and MS Security Essentials. Netbook is W7 Starter, Norton Internet Security 2010. But none of this matters. Because I had the same problem with this router using Vista64, IE7, no firewall, no a/v, IE32 & 64 bit...all those variables yet the only thing that works is resetting the router.
SO WHAT DOES MATTER? Help me before I trash this thing please.
