I can't attach anything in yahoo mail works fine with IE?? Please advise a fix!!

I have windows 7 and core 2 extreme 2.66-4gigs of ram...high speed internet and the newest version of firefox and yahoo mail

When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
1. Clear Firefox's Cache
orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Offline Storage : "Clear Now"
2. If needed, delete the site's cookies here
While viewing a page on the site, right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

  • In Firefox, can't attach files to Yahoo Mail outgoing messages. Yahoo Mail works fine in Internet Explorer though.

    Since yesterday, when I switched from Comcast to AT&T as my broadband internet connection, I have not been able to attach files to my Yahoo mail messages using Mozilla Firefox. I don't have this problem when using Internet Explorer, but my default browser is Firefox by choice. Is this a Yahoo issue or a Firefox issue? Can you help me resolve it?

    Not helpful. 'clearing Firefox's cache' is not helpful, since 'cache' doesn't show up in any of the Firefox pulldown menu choices (wasted time looking for that), and the plethora of things 'recent' and 'history' to choose to act on in these menus is also a possible waste of time, not to mention removing useful info for no reason.
    I, too, have had this problem 'intermittently' for many months, always involving the 'first' file to attach in a Yahoo! email, and I've always used this workaround OK: click on the filename showing as 'being attached' (while Yahoo's doohickey round spinner denoting 'in progress' whirls and whirls to no effect) and use "Remove File"; THEN, REPEAT 'attach file' task & it then works, if slowly. After that for the same email, attaching add'l files NEVER HAS A PROBLEM.
    SO, now today, without any software update yet (I've downloaded Firefox v.11 & will install shortly), at numerous attempts during the day, I CANNOT get the FIRST file to attach in a Yahoo! email. Simply, utterly, frustrating without any rhyme or reason. "Everything else, on plethora of sites, working fine."
    thanks.

  • Can't attach documents to yahoo mail anymore

    hey, everyone. i used to be able to attach files to my yahoo email by clicking attach file and choosing the file (whether it's a photo, pages doc, numbers file, etc).
    now, for some reason, when i choose attach file from the yahoo mail page and the finder window pops up, all of my pages and numbers documents can't be chosen. they're in a light gray color and i can't click on them. i have no idea what could've caused this. i did search around the forums and ran disk utility and repaired disk permissions but that didn't do a thing.
    i'd appreciate any advice y'all could give me.

    fyi, so i call apple care support and find out that this is a normal security feature of leopard. they told me that it's designed to help keep mac users from passing on a virus to others via email. just hit file, compress to create a zip version of the file and then attach the zip file.

  • Yahoo Mail works fine on I.E., but on Firefox formatting is missing, only have attachment button & all apps such as photo edit are missing.

    '''''All I can do is send a Blk & Wht email with preset font and size. Also, ALL, 100% of the apps below the left column of folders are missing. Large files, photo editing, stationary etc. In fact the scroll stops at the bottom of the list of folders. I have contacted Yahoo, a fix was tried but there is no change. Yahoo says since my mail works correctly on Internet Explorer, I should contact Firefox. Also, my Yahoo color theme will not hold my selection. Every time I go to mail on Firefox the theme has defaulted back to it's hard to see colors.'''''

    Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.
    "Clear the Cache":
    *Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now"
    "Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
    *Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> 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.

  • I updated my iPad 4 with the new iOS7 and since then Skype started problem and now email i.e, yahoo as well. I can hear people on Skype but they can't hear me though it was working fine with old version. Is any one else having same problem?

    I recently purchased iPad 4 and it is only one month old. I updated with iOS 7 and next day got problem with Skype and yahoo mails. People can't hear me on Skype though I can hear them clearly. I was replying yahoo mails quite nicely and now as I start typing the iPad turns black and have to open it again. Is there any one else facing the same problem? I was thinking to go to apple shop for support? Any suggestions?

    1) This is because of software version 1.1. See this
    thread for some options as to how to go back to 1.0,
    which will correct the problem...
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=3754

    2) This tends to happen after videos. Give the iPod a
    minute or two to readjust. It should now be more
    accurate.
    3) This?
    iPod shows a folder icon with exclamation
    point
    4) Restore the iPod
    5) Try these...
    iPod Only Shows An Apple Logo and Will Not Start
    Up
    iPod Only Shows An Apple Logo
    I think 3,4, and 5 are related. Try the options I
    posted for each one.
    btabz
    I just noticed that one of the restore methods you posted was to put it into Disk Mode First rather than just use the resstore straight off, I Have tried that and seems to have solved the problem, If it has thank you. previously I have only tried just restoring it skipping this extra step. Hope my iPod stays healthy, if it doesnt its a warrenty job me thinks any way thanks again

  • Firefix (V33) will not upload files in Yahoo Mail - Works fine in IE. Why not?

    I have latest Firefox, Windows 7, 64 bit. Yahoo Mail - latest version
    When I try to attach a file, it just sits there with the progress bar and never completes. Doing the same thing with Internet explorer it happens just fine in a couple of seconds.
    I have tried the drag and drop method as well as the attach file ICON in the email.
    Any idea what is wrong with Firefox?
    I disabled shockwave addon and in fact have NO add-ons running.

    Did you try dropping the files you want to send on people in the buddy list?

  • On ESR 17, the DOCX attachments in my e-mail (I use Optonline) ignores the file extension. (my e-mail works fine with IE). This was fine with Firefox 10.0

    I have been using Firefox for a long time. I installed ESR 17 recently. Since then I can't open DOCX files in my e-mail (optonline.net). It comes up as "eFax Messanger files". It obviously does not reconginze the file extension because whe i try to open it using Word it reads it as if it was a text file. If I use IE I have no problem opening the same attachment in my e-mail. I know atleast two other people who have the same problem.

  • Tiscali mail works fine with Internet explorer saying "you have 3 new mails in your inbox", with Firefox 5.0 it says "you have undefined new mails in your inbox". I cannot proceed beyond this point. Please advise david.tose@tiscali.co.uk

    Internet Explorer + Tiscali mail gives message "you have 3 new mails in your inbox (18% full)". Mail interaction OK
    Firefox 5.0 (freshly installed) + Tiscali mail gives message "you have undefined new mails in your inbox''. From here I cannot proceed.
    Is there a mail handler problem that causes Firefox 5.0 to fail?

    Yep, exactly the same problem only on W2K SP4. Firefox5 doesn't work but IE (on the same machine) does.
    Sorry, I'm not sure what version version of IE is being used.
    (It's the PC at work that has the problem and I'm writing this at home on my linux box which has Firefox version 3.6.18 for linux mint - which also works fine.)
    I really hope this can be fixed soon.
    Andy.

  • Does Apple support MacKeeper. Since installing it, when using Safari the Yahoo Mail freezes when trying to use it. Should I remove MacKeeper, they do not answer my  e-mails. Any suggestions appreciated. Yahoo Mail works fine using Firefox.

    Any suggestions are appreciated. I'm beginning to think MacKeeper was a BAD idea.

    Installing MacKeeper was definitely a bad idea! Search for it on these forums and you'll discover just how much trouble it causes people.
    However, all is not lost - here's a link to two ways of removing it:
    Either follow WZZZ's instructions on page 1 of this thread:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3298049?start=0&tstart=0
    or you can use an uninstaller in this link: http://www.fixkb.com/2011/03/remove-mackeeper.html
    (it has been mentioned on other MacKeeper threads that the site has not been 'verified' - not sure how it becomes verified, but it seems there are many who are very pleased that the uninstaller is available. So I guess it's at your own risk - although I've not seen anyone report any problems after using it).

  • Thunderbird suddenly started asking for my password, but does not accept it. (Web mail works fine with the same password)

    Thunderbird starting asking for my password. I know the password, just have not been asked for years.
    After typing in password keep getting message
    'Sending of password did not succeed. Mail server mail.intergate.com responded: dmanns logon failed '
    however, I went to Webmail.intergate.com; was redirected to http://email.1dial.com/webmail/Login.aspx.
    Can get email from webmail just fine (same password), just not via Thunderbird.
    Have already run two anti-virus scans. Have deleted the saved passwords and re-entered them as the program asked for them and renamed key.db & signons.sqlite (Read this in a forum on the web) and they rebuilt themselves. Still can not get email via Thunderbird.

    Did you contact your email provider? They may have server issues.

  • Lion running Safari 5.1 cannot attach files in Yahoo Mail

    I've seen a bunch of various threads on this over years, but none have answered it for my situation.
    In this case clicking the "Attach" button in Yahoo Mail does absolutely nothing.  No freezes or crashes - it just will not invoke a file tree to pick the attachment from.
    I just migrated over frrom a 2009 Mini to a 2011 Mini.  The exact same browser version running in Snow on the old Mini was working perfectly 2 days ago.
    Thoughts?

    Thanks Carolyn - Done as per your suggestion! 
    I'm pretty sure this is something I couldn't do in Snow?  (I''ve only been using Lion for a few days now). - And/or this is something Yahoo only started to allow recently - before, in the old days POP Mail was an add on Pay feature.  IMAP is new(ish) for them.  Maybe this is something I never looked for either (old dog/new tricks)
    Speaking of Lion - looking to make sure the Yahoo messages were copying off of the Yahoo servers I looked for them in -  Home/Library/Mail - but that's hidden in Lion now.  Go-> ~/Library reveals that it's all downloading fine.
    FWIW - The "ATTACH" button started working again for me this morning without doing a single thing.  No restart, didn't quit anything - left the Mac to sleep for 5 hours and tried again and it's working!  Strange.

  • Using Firefox 8.0, I can text and chat in Yahoo mail. In version 9.0, I can not. What's up?

    Using Firefox version 8.0, I can text and chat in Yahoo mail. When I upgrade to version 9.0, I can not. This applies to my desktop, laptop and netbook. When I downgrade back to version 8.0, everything works fine. Is there a setting that I need to change in 9.0?

    Hi tennis53,
    This sounds like a known issue reported here:
    https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=713014
    There was a workaround posted, but I've not tested it myself. Here are the steps.
    # Go into Yahoo Messenger Options - Change the Window in the dropdown to Tab and press OK.
    # Then go back and switch it to small window and press OK.
    Once the bug is officially resolved, you could try running a Nightly or Aurora build to use the fix early.
    Hopefully this helps!

    I just want to be able to USE iCloud on my phone
    To do that, you don't go to iCloud.com on your iPhone. You use the apps that all your iCloud data is synced into, such as Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Notes, Reminders, Safari (for bookmarks), Photos (for Photostream) etc.
