Can access Yahoo, but can't open Yahoo Mail in Firefox. Can on Internet explorer.

Can access Yahoo, but Can't open Yahoo Mail in Firefox. Can open Yahoo Mail on Internet Explorer. Checked Password.

PROBLEM: This is the error I get when I simply try to open an email in Firefox. File not found Firefox can't find the file at http://us.mg1.mail.yahoo.com/dc/blank.html?bn=555&.intl=us&.lang=en-US. * Check the file name for capitalization or other typing errors. * Check to see if the file was moved, renamed or deleted.
POSSIBLE SOLUTION:
I contacted Yahoo and they had me clear (1) cookies and (2) cache. This did work so that I can now open the emails in Firefox.
COMMENTS:
Yahoo support said "Please rest assured that Yahoo! Mail is properly working as of this time. It would be best if you contact Mozilla Firefox help support. They have the right tools and knowledge with the settings to access Internet Sites like Yahoo! Mail on Mozilla Firefox browser."
I'd like to know what to do to prevent this in the future because I've had this issue twice now in the last few weeks.

  • How can I stop Yahoo mail from automatically loading my user id and password when I access Yahoo Mail through Firefox?

    When I access Yahoo Mail through Firefox, as soon as Yahoo mail opens, my userid and password have already been entered. I do not want this to happen since other people use this computer. How can I stop this? this does not happen when I access through Internet Explorer.

    It looks like your password is stored in the password manager. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/make-firefox-remember-usernames-and-passwords?s=remembering+passwords&as=s#w_viewing-and-deleting-passwords Viewing and Deleting passwords]. Moreover, your Firefox version (3.6.18) is outdated. Go to Help < Check for Updates.

  • As of January 25, I'm no longer able to resize column widths in Yahoo Mail Inbox--still works in Internet Explorer.

    * I know how column resizing works and have done it regularly in the Yahoo Inbox
    * I've logged out/in of Yahoo, restarted my Firefox browser session, rebooted my computer
    * Other than anti-virus and other auto-updates, there haven't been any system changes (e.g. no new software loaded, configuration changes)

    The internet service you are using is the ones blocking the email from being sent out. You would need to contact them to see what they are restricting.

  • I am getting a 404 Not Found error when I try to access Yahoo Mail from Firefox. I can log in but Yahoo Mail will not open. It will open in IE. The problem is here at home.

    Not Found
    The requested URL /dc/launch was not found on this server.

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.

    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    [[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 [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''

    Thank you.

  • Downloaded Firefox 4.0, get server error 404 & can't access Yahoo mail. It opens with Explorer & on desktop with Mozilla 3

    Downloaded Firefox 4.0, to Dell Lat D630 on 4/9/11
    Get server error 404 & can't access Yahoo mail.
    It opens with Explorer & on networked desktop with Mozilla 3.6
    tried all fixes suggested by Support @ Customer Service
    No resolution to the access problem today 4/21/11. Do I reinstall 3.6 & delete 4.0? I understand this access problem is common to 4.0 users.

    I did some additional testing through Proxy 4. All web sites and web pages including secure sites that I tried accessing over the past couple of days all appear to work fine with the exception of the forementioned sites. Access to these specific web pages (which I cannot currently access) are part of our day-to-day business requirements, and therefore will prevent me from using Proxy version 4.0 as our production proxy unless I can figure out why these web pages won't load, and how to fix the problem.
    As an experiment, I tried to access these web pages through Proxy 4 with Mozilla FireFox and Netscape 7. None of these web browsers (including Internet Explorer) will bring up these web pages when going through Proxy 4. But bypassing the proxy or going through our v3.6 proxy works fine for these web pages everytime, and with all browsers. This leads me to believe that this web page access problem is not a browser specific problem, but something in Proxy 4 isn't processing the request to display the page properly.
    As a reference, the web site in question is http://www.sunlife.ca. On the left hand side of the page go to "Sign In" then "Plan Members". Thats where the request hangs through Proxy 4 no matter which browser I use, including Netscape... but works perfectly fine with Proxy v3.6.
    Can someone who is running a version 4 Proxy also please try to access the SunLife Members login page and see if it works or fails for you?
    Thanks

  • Can I setup Mail app to access Yahoo mail via IMAP?

    Can I setup Mail app to access Yahoo mail via IMAP? I think that my iPhone is doing this, but what about the Apple Mail app on my Mac? I don't like the fact that the Mac downloads the e-mail messages and removes them from the server, therefore making them inaccessible from Yahoo's online mail or my iPhone.
    I'd like to get to work just like my Mobile Me e-mail... Any thoughts?

    There is an option in the 'Advanced' section of the account setup to delete the messages from the server after a specified period rather than immediately on download; you could leave them for a week or whatever, then they will still be there when the iPhone accesses them.

  • Can't access Yahoo mail on I-Phone 4S (IOS 7.0.4)

  • Why am I getting an error message,"windows can not find(my Yahoo mail launch address)"when accessing Yahoo mail site?

    Using WindowsXP, and e-mail via Yahoo,browser is Firefox 4.0.I get the following error message when accessing yahoo mail site:"http://us.f831.mail.yahoo.com/dc/launch?action=welcome&yy=1782408664&.rand=0qrsdp1o...Windows can not find(the above address is inserted here).make sure you typed the name correctly,and try again". After this message is displayed on my desktop it begins to fade,and the inbox of my yahoo mail is then displayed..I am able to work all functions of the mail without problems.( I might add at this point that i access the mail program via a desktop icon).When I close out of the program the error message box with the error described above is displayed again on my desktop.I must click on the "X" to remove it.I can access my yahoo mail via Internet Explorer with no problem,as well as accessing via my yahoo home page.

  • After Mac OS X 10.6.3 upgrade can't access Yahoo mail and repeatedly get message ""Sorry, we are over capacity. Please wait a moment and try again." Help, please,

    After Mac OS X 10.6.3 upgrade can't access Yahoo mail and repeatedly get message ""Sorry, we are over capacity. Please wait a moment and try again." Help, please.

    Did you run all the software updates after the 10.6.3 update, especially this one which will bring you up to 10.6.8.
    Mac OSX 10.6.8 V1.1 Combo update
    Run software update, starting with the one above.
    Then call your provider and ask them what is going on. They have probably changed POP to IMAP, 10.6.8 supports IMAP

  • On Yahoo Mail through Firefox, the delete box, flag box, etc. are blank, only the person's email and subject are seen, but I can see it all with Internet explorers Yahoo mail

    On Yahoo Mail, through Firefox, when mailbox opens, and I want to delete, the delete button is there, but not boxes below, next to the email I want to delete. Same when I flag an email, the flag is missing. There are blank spots on my mail page. Through Internet Explorer on Yahoo, everything is there, the delete boxes, the attachment symbol, etc.

  • I cannot open Yahoo Mail in Firefox - It works just fine with all other browsers

    When I try to open Yahoo Mail in Firefox, it times out.
    This happens every single day.
    Every once in awhile I get lucky and get in, but again, I have to deal with this issue every single day.
    Yes, I've dumped the cookies and Cache
    Yes, I've switched to No Proxy
    Yes, I go through straight links and not bookmarks
    Nothing helps.
    Basically, if I want to get into Yahoo Mail, I have to open Google Chrome. Which has me thinking, if I have to open Google Chrome so often, why don't I just switch?
    I'm a long time user of Firefox and would prefer to stick with it, but this is the kind of thing that will push me over to using Google Chrome.
    Anyone have any other suggestions?

    You can remove all data stored in Firefox from a specific domain via "Forget About This Site" in the right-click context menu of an history entry ("History > Show All History" or "View > Sidebar > History") or via the about:permissions page.
    Using "Forget About This Site" will remove all data stored in Firefox from that domain like bookmarks, cookies, passwords, cache, history, and exceptions, so be cautious and if you have a password or other data from that domain that you do not want to lose then make sure to backup this data or make a note.
    You can't recover from this 'forget' unless you have a backup of the involved files.
    It doesn't have any lasting effect, so if you revisit such a 'forgotten' website then data from that website will be saved once again.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.
