Hotmail redirects to yahoo

when i sign into my hotmail account it loads for a couple of seconds then redirects itself to yahoo meaning. it works ok on explorer. ive deleted cookies and cache. any suggestions???

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs on the Windows computer. 
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. 
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

Apple Mail stopped today; server suddenly redirects through Yahoo

At about noon today my AppleMail stopped loading. Somehow the incoming server address got changed to redirect through Yahoo (I've never had a Yahoo acct), and the box is greyed-out so I can't change it. Frustrated. This has happened with three email addresses I use. Until a couple of hours ago the outgoing server was fine but now that won't even work. The computer has slowed down and is nearly unresponsive.

Thanks much.
I get a dialogue box that says Internet Account Preferences can't connect to the account. It asks for the password. When I type it in, I get a message Unable to Verify Account Name or Password. This happened on all three email addresses. There was no "Advanced" option to select. (I'm able to access all of my mail through Verizon's website; it's just Apple Mail that is the problem. It is very slow in responding in any direction: click on a folder and it takes many seconds to open; try to open a new blank message, it takes several seconds and then the curser sticks or doesn't work). All other applications are working okay but considerably slower than earlier today.
I made an appointment at the Genius Bar for tomorrow. Maybe this has something to do with Yosemite, but I downloaded that several days ago and it's been working well.

Why do i get redirected to yahoo kids

Whenever I try to get on a website while using firefox I always get redirected to yahoo kids . Why is this happening? Also when I try to get on facebook and other sites a message comes up that says '''K2 web reports Login''' LOGIN- enter a KeyServer administrator account name and password to access all reports .

Copy and Save this all in a MS Word Document.

Since ios 6 update hotmail fetches or push on its own. I have hotmail set to manual. Best I can tell its only hotmail and not yahoo. Is this a known problem? How do I make hotmail stop checking for mail when I have it set to manual?

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.
[[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]
''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.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you.

Getting redirected to yahoo web search after being on certain sites to long

I keep getting knocked off cmt website and redirected to yahoo web search.For some reason it's only this website that i am having issues with did have one instance where i was on another site and tried watching video and same thing happened.Other than that it doesn't do to the other sites i go on frequently any ideas.

Hi SuperRup91:
As the fantastic jscher2000 wrote:
"you may have OpenDNS set as your DNS service in your router, or your ISP may be using it."
And you may not have been aware that OpenDNS was set in your WiFi router.
Whoever controls the network that your WiFi hooks into can change google searches or anything you browse or in this case change "404 page not found errors" to go to OpenDNS. And there are two place where your network is controlled: i) your wifi router and ii) your ISP.
Two examples:
1. Here in Vancouver, Canada where I live, if you connect to a Shaw WiFi hotspot, then Shaw changes your searches by adding Shaw specific stuff. Not a great situation :-) but Shaw does that. (one could argue that this means Shaw is "breaking the internet")
2. By default Verizon configures the WiFi routers they supply with something called "DNS assistance" which changes DNS and again one could argue that this too "breaks the internet"
* https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/975069#answer-493363
* https://www.verizon.com/support/residential/internet/fiosinternet/troubleshooting/network/questionsone/99147.htm
Therefore, I recommend you check your WiFi router and see if it has OpenDNS configured. You may have to consult your ISP's technical support to remove OpenDNS; this is most certainly not a Firefox problem; we can't help with WiFi router configuration unfortunately.
Hope that helps!
Happy Holidays!

Why do I get redirected to Yahoo when I type Google into Firefox?

When I type google.com into the URL box of Firefox or Safari on my 2008 Macbook, I get atumoatically redirected to a Yahoo website with the following URL - http://developer.yahoo.com/yql/console/
I can still search in the Google search box in the top right, but I get similarly redirected if I search for Google and click on the Google link.
I was having a similar problem yesterday trying to get to ESPN's website. Every time I clicked on an ESPN link or typed in the URL I got redirected to a website called Ooyala. Now I'm not having this problem. I downloaded all new updates a few days ago, and am currently scanning my computer (I have Sophos Anti-Virus software, not sure how good it is). I expect that I have some sort of malware, but I know next to nothing about computers.
Can anyone help with this?

I too was having this issue recently. I decided to look into it and discovered that www.google.com and all of the search results accessed through using a google search engine toolbar were currupt. I believe I solved this problem by updating my firmware of my router.
Type in your IP address in your Address Bar (search using Yahoo what your default IP router address is if you haven't changed it since you got it.) You'll then need to navigate to your router's website (ex: I search Cisco and Linksys and found mine).
Most logins to the router are
Name: admin
Password: password
You will then download a .bin file and go to your administrator page in your router's control panel and go to Firmware Upgrade. Click the "find file" (or whatever it says) and click upgrade. This worked for me.
If this doesn't solve it, reset the router to it's default settings by either using it's control panel or holding the reset button on the back of it in for several seconds. This will reset any port forwarding you may have set up as well as your Wifi password.
Hope this helps,

Webpages won't load & seem to be redirected to Yahoo Search keep getting Yahoo 404 message. Works better on IE but some similar problems. I have Windows Vista

Webpages won't load correctly all the time. Sometimes I am entering the web address in the browser 4 or 5 times before it will go to the correct page. It seems to be redirecting to a Yahoo Search that gives a Yahoo 404 in the tab. (I don't know what this means.) My laptop works better on IE, but still has same issues just not as frequently. I have Windows Vista. Also, Yahoo Mail and Facebook is coming up in super large print and no pictures.

I have this very same issue and it is driving me insane.
Trying to go to Youtube or imageshack or even google.com it tends to redirect repletively to a yahoo 404 page!
It was real bad a few weeks ago. I was watching a live stream for a charity event and the page kept refreshing on it's own to a yahoo 404 page! I was ON THE PAGE watching the stream, but that very page kept refreshing to a 404.
I'm also doing job hunts and get this a lot! Try and send in an application? I have to fight with yahoo to let it go through!

Hotmail redirect my page if I use safari but not with Firefox

Once I login into Hotmail using safari I am redirected to a hotmail black page. This started after opening an e-mail from a trustable source. If I use firefox I do not have any problem.
I reset safari, cancelled all the cookies, deleted all the cache from Safari,. I deleted from the library extension of finder and mine the documents from the following folder: cookies, LaunchAgents, LaunchDaemons with no lack.
Any solution?
Apple support wanted 35 pounds and I was on a 0845 number as well!!!
I found the solution: I ditched Safari and started to use Firefox. I can now read my e-mails

Did you check the volume setting in the player to make sure that the sound isn't muted?

Nokia E72 - Set up Hotmail, Gmail and Yahoo accoun...

I bought my E72 3 days ago and the first impression i got was disappointing.
The first action you do when switching on E72 for the first time is to set up your email accounts.
Remember, E72 is Nokia's top email phone!!!
I chose hotmail. I enter my email account and then my password as requested.
And the next screen i get is nothing but the previous one!!!
The same happens with Yahoo accounts.
I found a way to work around the crash and set up my account through the "other" tab available on the wizard.
I am really disappointed that i have changed my beloved E71, to get an even more proffessional solution that in the end needs a total update to set up our emails.
There must be a solution in the next software upgrade and must be installed for free in all Nokia's stores.
Solved!

When I try to use an app I get redirected to yahoo search for adobepass.ios.app

When I try to use the BTN2GO APP, I get redirected to the yahoo search engine to search for adobepass.ios.app.
I was trying to login using my cable providers email account.
Can someone help me with this issue?

If you'll check the reviews for the recent (October 3) update, you'll see that this is a widely reported bug in the latest version of the app. As far as I can tell, there's nothing to do but contact the developers and let them know what's going on (since they may never see the Apple reviews).

Google search redirect to yahoo 404

Recently, when searching using my google search in safari on my iPad 1 I am redirected to a yahoo 404 error. After resetting the iPad it seems to have gone away, but is this symptomatic of something else? This happened while on wifi. Any insight is much appreciated!

Choose Setting > General > Safari > Clear history and Clear cookies.
There you can also change the Search engine.

Why is safari redirecting to Yahoo Guesthouse

I have a iPhone 5. When I go to Safari to search something it automatically redirects my phone to Yahoo Guesthouse. I have never used Yahoo Guesthouse and have no clue what it is. How do I get my phone to stop doing this!
Thank you

Open Terminal and type
pico /etc/hosts
and press enter, if you see something like this your fine
Use the arrow keys to mouse down and if there is anything below what you see on the image above (below the last two "localhost" lines) you have been compromised. Delete those lines and Exit, it will ask to save which you will need to enter the admin password.
If that doesnt' work use
sudo pico /etc/hosts
and perform the same operation, if your in standard user, switch to admin user first as sudo won't work in standard user by default.
Once you've done that use Software Update, it fixes a fake certificate issue.
You should backup your user file folders (Music, Library, Documents etc) to a external drive (not TimeMachine) and hold Command R and boot into the Lion Recovery Partition and install Lion on top of your installed version then Software Update.
Reinstalling Lion without erasing the OS x partition just replaces Lion and Apple's bundled programs, not your third party programs or files (but you backup anyway just in case you have too)
If one of your third party programs is a trojan, you really should replace all with fresh copies.
Also use Firefox with NoScript, Ad Block Plus and Web of Trust (WOT) as these will help protect yur machine and you from being compromised.

I keep getting an error message and redirected to yahoo, despite having been in the site briefly using my default browser. any ideas?

Google is my default browser. I type in a search, click on the link, and go to the site, Sometimes I get re-directed immediately and other times I am able to navigate for a few seconds before being re-directed. I've tried changing the settings in the "about.config" area to make sure that Google does not appear anywhere. I've removed Yahoo from my applications (since doing that Bing now comes up anytime I open more than one browser window). I've looked for malware from Spigot and I can't find You Tube Downloader. In short, I've followed every suggestion that I can find. It hasn't fixed the problem, and has created a new one with Bing. Any other ideas??

It could be the work of one of your add-ons, or even add / mal-ware.
Look thru your add-ons list and make sure you know what each one is
and what it does. Also, check the programs that are on your computer
'''Windows:''' Start > Control Panel > Uninstall Programs.
'''Mac:''' Open the "Applications" folder
'''Linux:'''
* [http://www.freesoftwaremagazine.com/articles/see_all_your_installed_applications_ubuntu_unity Ubuntu Unity]''' {web link}
* Xfce: Applications Menu category sections
* options depends on the package manager and the desktop environment
Go thru the list. If you find something that you don't
know what it is, use a web search.
