  • Why can I not open Yahoo Mail in Firefox but can in IE?

    I have recently updated my Firefox to 5.0. Now I cannot open my Yahoo mail box. The landing page downloads and I can see my email title, but when I click to open the email the link is dead. None of the features on the Yahoo mail page works.
    Everything works fine on Internet Explorer.

    go to Help Menu -> select "Restart with Add-ons Disabled"
    Check if it works without Add-ons.
    Firefox will close then it will open up with just basic Firefox. You can enable the Add-ons later. Check and tell if its working.

  • 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.

  • Can not send e-mails from account but can receive

    I have my e-mail account with ATT Yahoo.
    I received an account verification notice yesterday from ATT and I responded and they said I was verified.
    However after I did that I could not send e-mails from my Imac desktop but I am receiving them.
    I spend 4 and a half hours, yes 41/2 hours with both Apple Care and ATT and they could not correct the problem. Both discussions were with upper tier support personnel.
    Here are some facts that make this an odd issue:
    (1)
    I have other e-mail boxes from ATT and they can send and receive e-mails.
    (2)
    MY laptop can still send and receive e-mails from the e-mail account that is only receiving with my Imac.
    (3)
    All the settings are exactly the same and both Apple Care and ATT checked them.
    Is there anybody out there that may have an answer ?
    Both Apple Care and ATT blamed each other.
    My concern is that today I received another e-mail trying to verify my e-mail address for another e-mail address from ATT.
    I called ATT and they did not know why, I DID NOT open it up and trashed it.
    ATT has put a filter on my other e-mail accounts and hopefully that will end any problems with them.
    The account that has the issue is my main account and I cannot trust leaving it and am trying to avoid having to change it.

    Hi Rachel, For what it will be worth, I was like a dog with a bone about this, so I decided to give it another go. I have success on both boxes. Here is what I did, I warn you now it was a lengthy process. Before you begin download all the upgrade steps from X.5.0 to X.5.6 as single stages ( for me the combo's did not work) and have them ready to use.
    1st Backup all your mail to CD/DVD not on the box. Check for any unsent mails anywhere in the box and then throw out all of the mail bits that are anywhere on the system in any folder. 2nd Install & Archive, 3rd Start up from Install DVD and check/set permissions, reboot. Enter all your ISP details to mail, see if you can send a mail to yourself. If not dump all the mail you tried and the .plists, reboot and install next update in the series, enter all details as before, try and send etc. If this fails dump again and reboot install next update etc.
    I started at X.5.1 and got to vX.5.4 before I got a result in that sys asked me if this server will do, I said yes and I got mail out. The server name was different that was offered but when all was over it showed as the correct one that it should be on port 995. I must add that I had the spinning cog wheel for quite some minutes before anything happened. I continued on this way for the rest of the updates. 1x1 until v.6 was reached. That was only on the G4, I now had to do it all again on the MacPro. This one was not so co-operative in that I had to do it twice, but now it also has Mail running. It is funny though that I had to reach X.5.4 on both machines before it came right. On the G4 I was using a retail disc and on the Intel the supplied for discs.
    Others on here may have a better and quicker way, but for me this did work. I am sure that there is a problem in either the mail app itself or the production of the Master DVD's.
    Whatever, good luck.

  • Can't print from Mail or Firefox but can from CS2

    When I try to print from Mail I get the 'Print - Error While Printing' error coming up. It doesn't matter which printer I print to and it even does the same thing if I try to make a PDF. If I print from Firefox I don't get an error but nothing happens. However, I can print fine from Creative Suite 2 so I wonder if it's only affecting native Intel apps maybe?
    Anyway, I have tried rebuilding disk permissions and replacing libConverter.dylib with another copy, none of which makes any difference. Any ideas anyone?
    2x2.66GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    Re the driver affecting pdf printing, the answer is no. The print to pdf uses internal processes and is not impacted by the vendors driver. So given that Rosetta was no help and Word is also failing, then it suggest that the core printing system is at fault. Although the ability to CS2 to print is a 'curve-ball'. The CS2 suite does things differently when it comes to printing but it still eventually uses the core printing system to get the file to the printer.
    So, some things to try....
    1. Install the 10.4.9 Combo update. If you did the sequential update from 10.4.8 to 10.4.9, then this update can fill missing holes.
    2. Get Fixamac's Printer Setup Repair utility to see if it can identify any issues.
    3. Get Gutenprint 5.0.0 and try adding a printer using one of these drivers.

  • Can't post pics on forum with firefox but can with Internet explorer

    I can't post pictures/images on a certain forum when using firefox but when using Internet explorer on the same forum it works. Any solutions please?

    Hi Meghraj, Thank you for your reply! I am afraid a screenshot will not reveal much. When I click on "add file" on the forum to post a pic it opens my files and once I select my file that I want to post and click on "open" it goes back to the forum page but the file is not there. When I do this same action with Internet explorer it works. But I don't really use internet explorer and would like to use firefox rather. A few members on the forum using firefox have the exact same problem. Any ideas? Thank you! :)

  • Why don't I see the 'Emoticons' and 'Format' tabs when composing a message in the new Yahoo Mail, using Firefox, but I do when using Internet Explorer?

    I have been using the new Yahoo Mail on Firefox. But today I noticed that when I write an email (Compose/Reply/Forward), I cannot format it. Only the 'Attachments' tab is present, but the 'Emoticons' and 'Format' tabs are not.
    But when I do it using Internet Explorer, all those tabs are present and I can format and do whatever.
    Is there something wrong with my Firefox? I have restarted my computer, I have shut it down, but my Yahoo Mail remains problematic when using Firefox.

    Firefox only allows you to save executable files. If you want to add an option to run them you can use the OpenDownload² add-on - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/opendownload-10902

  • When using Yahoo Mail in Firefox, I can't copy and paste pictures from a third-party host. I can do this in MSIE 8.

    I'm accustomed to copying pictures that I placed on a third-party host (Photobucket or Multiply) and pasting them into the body of a Yahoo Mail message. I can't do that on Firefox. When I click "Paste," nothing happens.

  • When accessing eBay with Firefox and launching a search, I get less results/hits with Firefox then when using Internet Explorer, why? Try it, you'll see.

    For example access eBay with Firefox and launch a search on the word Frankenstein: you'll get something like 23,671 results (if you search in ''All categories''). Then quit the Firefox browser and load Microsoft Internet Explorer instead; access eBay again and repeat the very same search: this time you'll get 25,383 results. These are reral figures that I tried at 19:21 on March 20, 2014. Why does a search on eBay through Firefox report less hits than the very same search through Internet Explorer? Using Firefox rather than Microsoft Internet Explorer automatically means missing hits/results/items on eBay: that doesn't make sense but it does happen. Why is it so? Thank you, somebody, for shedding light on this problem.

    Try this steps and try to load the same once again!!!
    Hello,
    Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
    Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
    To clear cache and cookies do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
    #Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
    #Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
    #From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
    #Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
    Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

  • Mailing .pdf attachments to Presto Printer doesn't work with Firefox but does with IE, how can I fix this?

    Since upgrading to 4.0.1 the email address [email protected] indicates that there is something wrong with any attachment in .pdf format. This happens when I send mail from my yahoo or aol mail accounts when using Mozilla. It does not occur if I'm using those mail accounts and Internet Explorer.
    [email protected] lets you see what an email will look like when printed on a subscriber's Presto printer, which is a printer that is used without a computer, it periodically calls a toll-free number and looks for mail sent to that address. I believe anyone can send mail to [email protected] and will receive a reply back, so you could test tweeks to Mozilla that would resolve the problem. This issue started in September or October of 2010, was resolved by Presto at that time, but has not been resolved with the 4.0.1 version.

    MS offers some advanced features only for its own IE browser and not for other browsers like Firefox.
