I cannot switch between Yahoo Mail accounts, Firefox immediatley switches back to the default account

I can open my free yahoo email account but I can not switch to my yahoo plus email account within yahoo email

If that doesn't help, and if you haven't already...
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) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

I downloaded the new OS and I cannot access my yahoo mail account. I get error 19

I just downloaded the new OS maverick and cannot access my yahoo mail. I receive error 19.

I did last night and it is still doing the same thing.

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.

Cannot re-add Yahoo mail account

Hi! My boyfriend recently updated his password, but then couldn't access his account on the Mac Mail App (works fine on iPhone). He deleted the account and tried to re-add it. However, the mail app on the Mac would not let him re-add the account. This is a Yahoo account. I tried to add a Gmail account and had the same problem: "A secure connection couldn't be established. Click 'Continue' to continue creating the account. You can edit the account later in iCal.app preferences if necessary." I click "Continue," and a new message reads: "There was a problem setting up the account. iCal couldn't log in to the CalDAV server 'google.com.'" So, neither a Google nor Yahoo account can be added at this time, though it worked fine before. Possibly a glitch.
Can you please assist?

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.

I can't insert a picture in Yahoo Mail within FIrefox 3.6.13. The solution given by Yahoo doesn't work. Any ideas?

When I try to insert a picture - either jpg or html format on a Yahoo Mail page in Firefox 3.6.13, it won't insert. I looked at Yahoo forums etc, but the answers there don't work; e.g. a simple cut and past; inserting the picture link to its website. This must be a simple procedure - I get junk emails full of html pictures often. But neither Yahoo nor Firefox are helpful.

That means that the link has an onclick action. Such links need to be left-clicked. Make sure that you do not block JavaScript.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

I cannot access Yahoo Mail account or Netflix accounmt

I cannot access my Yahoo Mail account nor my Netflix account using FF. I can access these in IE. I do not like IE so help is appreciated.

That issue can be caused by corrupted cookies.

there is a problem with yahoo and there update there servers

When I open my Yahoo mail account, it comes up with lines between every entry. When I try to send a new message, the dialogue box is incomplete. The tool bar above the message box is empty so I cannot change the font or font size, etc.

This problem does not occur when I open my Yahoo mail account in Internet Explorer.
Because of it, I cannot use Firefox to access my Yahoo mail.

I cannot use the chat feature in my Yahoo mail account

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.

Hello, iam using the latest version of firefox, whenever i login into my yahoo mail account i get a stop script error, the details of the error script is mentioned below , please suggest how to stop this : STOP ERROR

Hello, iam using the latest version of firefox, whenever i login into my yahoo mail account i get a stop script error, the details of the error script is mentioned below , please suggest how to stop this
the website is www.mail.yahoo.com. i was getting the same STOP script error every now and then in firefox 6 as well

I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

Right after the firefox upgrade I can no longer acess my text window in my yahoo mail account. I cant figure out why.

Once firefox completed its upgrade I can no longer access my text window/box in my yahoo mail account. Which means I cannot text from my mail account now. I cant figure out why this is happening.

I cannot open Yahoo Mail in Firefox - It works just fine with all other browsers

When I try to open Yahoo Mail in Firefox, it times out.
This happens every single day.
Every once in awhile I get lucky and get in, but again, I have to deal with this issue every single day.
Yes, I've dumped the cookies and Cache
Yes, I've switched to No Proxy
Yes, I go through straight links and not bookmarks
Nothing helps.
Basically, if I want to get into Yahoo Mail, I have to open Google Chrome. Which has me thinking, if I have to open Google Chrome so often, why don't I just switch?
I'm a long time user of Firefox and would prefer to stick with it, but this is the kind of thing that will push me over to using Google Chrome.
Anyone have any other suggestions?

You can remove all data stored in Firefox from a specific domain via "Forget About This Site" in the right-click context menu of an history entry ("History > Show All History" or "View > Sidebar > History") or via the about:permissions page.
Using "Forget About This Site" will remove all data stored in Firefox from that domain like bookmarks, cookies, passwords, cache, history, and exceptions, so be cautious and if you have a password or other data from that domain that you do not want to lose then make sure to backup this data or make a note.
You can't recover from this 'forget' unless you have a backup of the involved files.
It doesn't have any lasting effect, so if you revisit such a 'forgotten' website then data from that website will be saved once again.
