I can't access my yahoo messenger and limewire

i bought a laptop and connected it straight to a wrt54t router, i can access the internet just fine but when it comes to download my yahoo messenger and msn messenger i can't do it, also anything that has to do with connecting to the internet other than my internet explorer browser it wont let me. I try using another browser like firefox but i can't. i check for fire walls and i don't have any. also if i want to use Ares to download music or Limewire it won't let me. If i try to download a program it  always tells me that there is an error of some kind. Can anyone help me ? this is very frustrating specially when i can't even use my yahoo messenger.
Thank you so much since now !!

  • Can't login to yahoo messenger and e-buddy

    Dear teams,
    My Blackberry can not login into Yahoo Messenger starting yesterday. It's says "Invalid Yahoo! ID or Password".
    I absolutly sure the ID and the password is correct because I can login using the PC computer. But still it doesn't work on BB Handle.
    Also the e-buddy only says connecting / reconnecting but can not connected to the e-buddy server.
    Is it possible my account is 'error' in RIM/BB Server?
    It's has been more than 30 hours from my last login on Yahoo Messenger. Please help.
    Thank you

    It's happened also with my account.
    Already swapped with my wife's BB ... and the conclution is : the problem is in my account (in BB/RIM server). I can login using my wife's account in my BB, but I can not login with my account in my wife's BB.
    I also did change my yahoo password through PC, try to login to Yahoo mail using PC, YM via PC, and all works. Very strange problem
    I also not able to setup my Yahoo mail through BB. Same error "Invalid Yahoo ID or password" ...
    Very urgent (because I use my YM in BB almost anytime for business stuff). Need a good suggestion to solve this problem ...
    Thank you very much,

  • Where can we suggest new features for Yahoo Messenger and other RIM IM clients?

    I just downloaded the new version of Yahoo Messenger and I like the user interface. But every time a new version comes out, this application creates a less-complete history of contact behavior. Several versions ago, the contact's status showed up in the open conversation, along with the time stamp of when the status changed. This included Idle and Custom Status changes. That disappeared. In the last version, you could see the time the contact signed in or out last, and sometimes both. Now they're gone as soon as you close the conversation.
    The whole idea of having Yahoo up on the BlackBerry all the time is that you don't have to be staring at the screen all the time, that you should be able to take it out of your pocket and check out those events that occurred that didn't set off alarms. I'd like the whole contact history to be right there, for as long as I want to keep it active. How can I make this suggestion to RIM for the next version of Yahoo Messenger? Thanks.

  • I can't get the yahoo messenger app to work on my phone, all it does is show is "connecting" and I appear on-line to my contacts.

    I can not get the yahoo messenger app to work on my iphone.

    Same problem here!
    I'm using the latest in Chrome, Firefox, and IE 8, regular and compatibility mode.  This is extremely frustrating, one of the primary reasons I bought this printer was for the mobile/eprint functions.

  • Trying to download yahoo messenger and I keep getting a connection error. But it stats must use internet explorer to fix. I only have firefox, no internet explorer.. anyway to get around it?

    Once again, I am trying to download Yahoo messenger and It only has tips for Internet explorer We only have Firefox (mozilla) installed and so I need help getting around this in order to install.

    And they do offer a compatible version. As I am running running Netflix on my first generation iPad just fine.
    You'll need to first "purchase" the non compatible version  either on a newer device that can run it or on a computer running iTunes using the Apple ID that is on the first Gen iPad.
    After that is done, you should be able to go into the App Store App, and find Netflix under the Purchased Tab. Tap on it to download it and you should be warned its not compatible, but will be offered the compatible version.

  • How do i install yahoo messenger and gtalk on my n...

    How do i install yahoo messenger and gtalk on my nokia 305.

    Nokia's new asha models come up with the chat app pre-installed. Just open Chat from the home menu and add your Yahoo and gTalk accounts there. You can also use Nimbuzz which does the similar work too..
    If you're looking for Yahoo Messenger or gTalk for calling, that isn't possible. You can only use the chat from your phone.

  • 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!

  • I can't access my Yahoo mail on Iphone 4s over wifi at work. "Checking for mail" is going on forever. Any idea?

    I can't access my Yahoo mail on Iphone 4s over wifi at work. "Checking for mail" is going on forever. Any idea?

    You cannot change the incoming mail ports on the iPhone,  As KiltedTim mentions, if it works elsewhere on 3g and wifi, then it almost certainly is your employers firewall blocking access.

  • TS3899 I can't access my yahoo emails in the email in the iPhone 5c it was working perfectly fine earlier an now it quit

    I can't access my yahoo emails in the email in the iPhone 5c it was working perfectly fine earlier an now it quit

    I have a similar problem. I was receiving email on my iPhone for months, and then it quit working. When it quit working, I continued to receive emails on my iPad even though the server and port settings were exactly the same between the two devices. I tried deleting and re-adding my email account on the iPhone and restarting my iPhone, but I still couldn't receive email on the device. The only way I could get email to work on my iPhone was to switch to using a POP3 email server (this is the server that my phone auto detected when I re-added my email account) -- the server that was working previously and that is still working on my iPad is an IMAP email server. Since the IMAP server settings continue to work on my iPad, it seems that the problem is with my iPhone and not my email server.

  • Can't connect to yahoo messenger, iTunes, anti-virus updates, etc..

    I have a wireless router and ever since I started using it I can't connect to yahoo messenger, iTunes, anti-virus updates, etc.. but the rest of the internet works fine. I've checked firewalls and everything seems fine.  I've searched on here and have seen some similar posts but no solutions.  Do I just have to give those things up to have a wireless connection??

    I think that the router is blockingthe messaenger or other services to open..... try upgrading the firmware ... once upgraded ...reset & reconfigure the router ....

  • Under Settings, then to Yahoo mail, I tapped the "Reset All Accounts" button, now I can't access my Yahoo email. What do I do to get my email back to the way it was?

    I tapped the "Reset All Accounts" button under settings (Yahoo Mail). Now, I can't access my (Yahoo) email from my iPhone.  How do I re-set to the way it was?

    If it still shows up under your accounts you would want to tap on it and then tap on the email address. You should see the option to sign out, do so and then re-add the account by hitting add account from settings> Mail contacts and calendars.
    If the accounts are not on the device start at re-adding the accounts.
    If you need the server settings you will need to contact Yahoo.

    Try deleting the Yahoo account stuff from the iPod and reenter the settings. Some users have had to reset their Yahoo password to get it to work. Many users have problems with their Yahoo account on the iPod.

    Hi. I have shared an Apple ID with my children for some time.  As they are getting older they do not wnat me seeing all their messages, photos etc so want their own accounts.  How can they access their purchased music and apps on the new account please?

    Yes.
    On their iOS devices, under Settings>iTunes & App Store, they should use your Apple ID. When they log into iCloud, iMessage and Facetime, they should use their personal Apple IDs.
