Cannot compose or reply using yahoo mail with firefox

I have done everything Yahoo says to do which is FF's solution to my problem, but it does not solve the problem
Yahoo mail works fine with IE & CHROME but with FF 33 & 34 it will not allow me to compose or reply to an email!
And the checkboxes with the icons inside have been there for MANY versions.
Sad that I will have to switch to Chrome or IE

I am suddenly having this problem with not being able to
reply/forward to (certain Gmail conversations).
Now using, Mac OS 10.5.8 and experienced the presence of this issue with Firefox 3.6.10. AND 3.6.13 but not with Beta 4.
I have used Safari and the error is not reproducible. This issue is exclusively present to Gmail in FF.
I can confirm that FF config is presently dom.storage.enabled.
I have started FF in safemode, disabled, updated and enabled all plugins and add-ons, restarted FF and desktop many times, the issue is still present in FF 3.6.10/3.6.13.
Only some conversations cause this error. When I click on particular conversations reply/forward tab, the page freezes and the only way to temporarily resolve this, is to click the refresh icon as F5 will not work.
It does not freeze the whole
FF browser, just the window with Gmail.
I need a fix as FF is my primary browser.
Thanks in advance! :-)

I cannot attach files to my Yahoo mail with Firefox 21. It works fine with IE.

Up till about 3 weeks ago I had no problems. Now when I try to attach any file to my Yahoo mail I get a red triangle saying 1 file cannot be sent. If I go to Explorer it goes right through. I tried all the stuff about deleting the history and cache and everything else but it still doesn't work.

Which security software (firewall, anti-virus) do you have?
Boot the computer in Windows Safe Mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] 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 or otherwise make changes.

When using yahoo mail on firefox, when replying to emails the first letter has started to not record/appear. not an issue with my clicking, rather firefox recording the letter/digit. this does not appear to be an issue on Safari or Chrome.

first digit typed when replying to an email on yahoo mail on firefox is not appearning. not an issue on safari or chrome browsers.

I believe that our “Werbung problem” adds an additional second hyperlink to the pop-up window. This second link is activated whenever you trigger a saved hyperlink to a Mail.com site.
I had the same problem and eliminated it by deleting all bookmarks, hyperlinks and automatic links that take firefox to a mail.com address. So I just deleted all bookmarks I had saved for mail.com. I also changed my home page link because it also went to my email at mail.com. I then did a warm boot, opened firefox and re-saved my bookmarks and homepage to the desired addresses. Good luck.

There is a problem with Mail.app and using yahoo mail.

Nothing has changed and it's just suddenly happened.
Any ideas or thoughts to remedy this?

Using yahoo mail with outlook and mac mail

I previously used entourage on my OS 10.6.8 mac but I have upgraded to os 10 and office 2011 with outlook. When I set up outlook will yahoo mail messages only be accessible on the original device that opens them? I have an iMac desktop with outlook, a Macair using mac mail and a Samsung tablet using yahoo mail. I have noticed that when using mac mail only on the iMac and Macbookair, to get yahoo mail and yahoo mail on the tablet. I can only see my yahoo mail messages on the first device that opens the yahoo mail account. I have Yahoo mail plus. Is there a way to fix this other than turning off the yahoo mail account on the devices I am not currently using?

I cannot access my Yahoo mail with Firefox 6.0.2. I get "Bad Request"

I can access my email with Safari. I am unable to access it with Firefox 6.0.2. I have tried several times. I've reloaded Firefox twice to no avail.

Sorry, I had missed that you are on a Mac.

If clearing the cookies doesn't help then it is possible that the file cookies.sqlite that stores the cookies is corrupted.
Rename (or delete) cookies.sqlite (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete cookies.sqlite-journal and cookies.txt, if they exist, in the Firefox Profile Folder in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.

What is the best way to sandbox Yahoo Mail with Firefox?

I want to create a icon on a users desktop that launchs yahoo mail in it's own instance. (User profile I guess)
Here's the background:
I volunteer with a local seniors citizens organization to provide free computer support to seniors on a limited budget. Many seniors use yahoo becuase it was what they learned to use way back when and don't want to change. It is widely known that yahoo accounts have been subject to a recent spree of hacking using exploits, some of which do not even require a user to click on a link. I have seen firsthand 5 incidents where separate individuals using separate computers have had yahoo accounts hacked.
One of my clients was an ATT customer, thus entitled to phone support. In a recent conversation with ATT support who uses yahoo for their e-mail services, they told me they are aware of the problem and the best solution is to logout of your yahoo account every time you are done using it. This is problematic for Senior Citizens who can't or won't remember passwords, they want it to just work.
I began thinking that there must be a way to protect a user from at least some of these exploits.
My finial idea is to create a desktop icon that will launch an instance of Firefox that is separate from the other websites that a user may be browsing. I think this could be accomplished using user profiles and some command line options.
Any other ideas?
Extensions? I'm thinking of blocking flash and java on that instance too.

hello, first of all please make sure that firefox is up to date (version 20.0.1 at the moment) and that all plugins are updated to the latest version on the systems in question in order to fix known vulnerabilities...
[[Update Firefox to the latest version]]
https://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/
you are right, you can use the [[Use the Profile Manager to create and remove Firefox profiles|profile manager]] in order to create a dedicated profile and then create a desktop shortcut for it. here are the command-line arguments for firefox.exe that will help you accomplish that: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Command_Line_Options
deactivating java and other plugins that are not necessary for emailing is certainly a good idea too. you could also use an extension like adblock plus together with a filterlist that blocks known malware domains: http://adblockplus.org/en/features

FROM CHAT WITH YAHOO
Clark: Okay. We are receiving reports from other users having issues with the Mozilla Firefox such as chat features, etc. However, this only happens on the Mozilla Firefox and not an issue with your account itself as you are not having this issue using other web browsers
Clark: I would suggest that, in the mean time, try to use the Internet Explorer or Google Chrome if you are having issues using the Mozilla Firefox on your Yahoo! Mail page.

@ Philly
Yes there is,
When you recieve a mail with an attachement (inline or as a picture) right click (or control click) the attachement and choose "show as symbol" or "show fullsize" (or completely or something like that, I don't work in English version). Mail will take this as a general preference.

How to use Windows Mail with Firefox

I want to use Windows Mail as my default e-mail program when using Firefox to browse the internet and initiate e-mail messages. How can I get Firefox to use Windows Mail? Right now, it is using Thunderbird, which I do not even have installed on my PC, and it is using the web e-mail Address Book and Sent folder on my ISP's web site, rather than being able to reference the Address Book and Sent folder on my PC.
Thank you!

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.

Thank you, "the-edmeister" -- You render a great service, one that lifts my spirits.
Your answer also taught me to be a little more persistent, as I had started looking at Preferences, and just didn't notice the icons (including Applications) at the top of that window that would have led me to my answer.
