Cannot use Yahoo IM

Hi everyone,
My phone didn't come with Yahoo Messenger, strangely enough. That I'm aware of, anyway! First phone I've had that didn't come with the 3 major IM applications already installed. But anyway.. I downloaded the app from mobile.blackberry.com.
Now when I go to log in to the Yahoo IM, it tells me "Service is not enabled for this handheld." What is that? And yes I do have a Blackberry data plan on this phone. I send and receive text msgs, pins, use the blackberry messenger, etc. Why am I having such difficulty with the Yahoo IM? I have already rebooted my phone.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

ask.com works fine but i cannot use any search engines related to google, yahoo and several other sites that use those engines on there page. several pages hostred by google also do not work. i have tried several scans to find issues but nothing. i have updated firefox and i have also tried to reinstall firefox twice.
i have also had several issues streaming video or music which wasnt an issue until i started having the google issues

Just saw this: http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/944193

I cannot use Yahoo's IM feature from Fire Fox when logged into Yahoo Mail; why?

I can, and do, log into Yahoo Mail to manage my e-mail while using Fire Fox as my browser, however, if while working within Yahoo Mail I decide to use Yahoo's instant messaging feature and click on one of my contacts who is online and available, the IM panel opens but, immediately a Bing search opens in the message area and blocks all further attempts to send an instant message to the person I wish to chat with. How can I overcome this problem?

Apple poor new software , cannot use Yahoo in Apple imail

After recent Apple iOS updates in Feb2013, the yahoo mail account in Apple iMail did not function properly. This happened to all Apple devices I have -iPhone , iPad mini and iMac . It always say my password is incorrect, prompting me to re-enter password. I entered the correct password and even changed my password in my yahoo mail account Internet version, and removed yahoo from Apple iMail in all my Apple devices and then restart them, but still my yahoo mail account could not be set up properly. It says cannot get mail because the apple.imap.yahoo.com rejected my password, or says that my password is incorrect. I am not using POP for yahoo so I do not suppose it would have problems with multiple devices' use. Now I could not setup Yahoo mail in my devices, even worse. The Internet version of Yahoo mail works properly.
This did not happen before I updated the iOS (ok when I was using iOS5). My view is that recent Apple's software updates were very poorly done, as there are a lot of clashes with other Apps and functions, not just the Yahoo Mail. I hope to hear from other users and Apple on how this yahoo mail problem can be solved.

I apologize for my frustrations Gail.
If you think that Apple does not monitor these forums, think again. This is not official "Apple" but nonetheless they are here.
The question I have is, did you install your new third party music AFTER you updated? My third party music that was placed in iTunes after I updated loads fine in an older iPod running iOS 6 but will NOT load in iOS 8.1.2. This is with the Apple provided USB sync cable. I just sent another song to iTunes and it will not load iOS 8.1.2 but did load on iOS 6. If you are able to sync new music AFTER the update on iOS 8.1.2 then I will start over AGAIN with iTunes. I deleted a song from iTunes and it stayed on 8.1.2 but not on 6. It seems that it is a iOS 8.1.2 problem. When I purchased this device, I had to scrap iTunes altogether and start from scratch. Funny though, iOS 6 never had a problem.
I have an attitude because since I have been messing with iOS 8 it has been nothing but trouble. My "Conclusions" are also shared by another in this forum as well. I knew right away what he was referring to. So, they may not be "Incorrect" as you say. As I reiterate, fix the junk. These devices are to be used by the "Average Joe". Not just people that have a better understanding of software such as yourself.
Thank you for your time.
BTW... I'm long AAPL

Cannot directly open the browser from the icon. "problem loading webpage" and "timed out" are the messages. Access was accomplished by using yahoo messenger and opening my email. if I attempt to open a new page, I recieve the aforementioned warnings.

no link to open access to the internet. I used Yahoo Messenger, clicked on the 'mail icon' and since Firefox is my default it opened and I was able to continue from there. If I try to click File, open New Page, I get the "problem loading webpage" and "connection timed out" messages

changed my homepage to Yahoo. Now Firrefox works but still cannot access ANYTHING 'Google"!

I need to download a version of Firefox that is optimized for Yahoo! but I cannot use Firefox 4 for Yahoo! because it doesn't support Norton 360 as of yet. Any suggestions?

If you do have any suggestions, where can I find it? The only place I know of is the http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html web site and you can only get version 3.6.16 there and it's NOT optimized for Yahoo!. Please help!
Yahoo! keeps sending me the following message in a box on my screen along with the links to Firefox 4 and IE : Attention: Please upgrade to the latest Yahoo! optimized browser to ensure the best Yahoo! experience. But, as I stated in the question above, I cannot use Firefox 4 yet because it does NOT support Norton 360. Plus, I don't trust IE8 to use Facebook!
Thanks for any help you can give me! Your very prompt attention to this question is greatly appreciated as I am sort of at a standstill before moving on with my work.
Regards,
Christine
(Running Windows Vista Service Pack 2)

Symantec have released an update for Norton 360 to make it compatible with Firefox 4, for details see http://us.norton.com/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docurl=20100720113635EN&ln=en_US

Cannot use instant messenger in Yahoo Mail anymore and don't know why

when I go into my Yahoo Mail, I cannot use instant messenger. If I click on someone on line nothing happens at all. I have been told to delete and reload this program (IM) but have tried repeatedly and cannot find it anywhere. Also tried contacting someone on facebook and got no response so I assume it's not working on the chat feature either

I cannot use the chat feature in my Yahoo account using Firefox browser, yet I CAN use this feature when going through Internet Explorer. Why? I have uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it. I have about a million copies of the flash player now installed...still, I'm frustrated by not being able to use the chat feature in my yahoo mail. please help!

Hi
On your iPhone, go the settings app. Then select Mail, Contacts, Calendars on the left column. On the right column under Accounts select your Yahoo mail account. A popup with show up and then you have to turn the the Notes switch to the off position.

HT1941 why i cannot use my web cam using yahoo messenger and face time?

whi i cannot use my web cam using yahoo messenger and face time?

PwmBoat,
This made me smile, because things like this do make me smile... I never make videos on YouCam, but I did this time, so I could test this one out.
You did not say what webcam software you are using...
======================================================================
Video and audio recording works on YouCam V3.5.1.4606
Make sure you have turned on a working microphone in Settings:
YouCam > Right-Side Settings >
Right-Side, Lower-Right, Select a working Microphone from the Drop down list
AND
CHECK "Capture with audio"
OK
You can also buy (for $38 US) YouCam 5.0 from the Cyberlink.com website and it has audio/video and all sorts of other goodies, too. (They have 3.x as well, but why buy what HP already gives you?)
==========================================================================
I hope this helps!
We work hard to help!

I cannot watch yahoo videos using your service; switch to internet explorer to watch; do I need to delete your serverice and switch to internet explorer?

I cannot watch yahoo videos using your service; switch to internet explorer to watch; do I need to delete your serverice and switch to internet explorer? I would like that question answered first.

Hi kaylenmar, I assume videos play normally for you on YouTube and other sites.
There have been several long threads about Yahoo! videos and what might make them different from other sites. The upshot is that different people have found different problems and different solutions. For example, extensions that filter or block ads or prevent tracking can cause problems, as can the click-to-play feature.
One approach that worked for most people who mentioned trying it is to switch to Firefox 24, which is in the final two weeks of its beta testing period. You can expect a few more rough edges with a beta version than with the released version. However, it might be worth it if you don't like switching browsers to watch Yahoo videos.
I suggest making a backup of your Firefox settings folder before installing Firefox 24. This article has tips on doing that: [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]].
Firefox 24 beta is available here: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/beta/

I use Yahoo mail. It requires Java which I cannot activate. must thus use "Clasic" with important features missing.

Because my Acer computer with Vista crashed twice, I changed from Thunderbird to Yahoo mail <[email protected]> (I live in Canada so why the "uk", I do not know). I upgraded Firefox to version 4. For the past week I am told that I must activate my Java and am told how to do this. I do what I am told, starting with the "Tools" menu - and then on from there. It does not work, I continue to receive the same message. To use Yahoo without Java I must apparently use the Classic Yahoo. This Classic program is very awkward and inconvenient.
What, if anything, can I do please?
