Logging on to BT Yahoo Mail

We have the main and 3 secondary BT yahoo email addresses.
From time to time when opening Windows Mail to access emails we get a window pop up asking for Login Details for one or more of the addresses.
Most of the time inputting the correct details does not allow access to that particular email address.
It has got to the point of being so ****** off we shut down Windows Mail carry on with something else and come back a few minutes later and emails can be downloaded no problem.
Sometimes there are no problems for weeks on end and then it can happen for at least a day every time we try to retrive our emails.
I have used a number of ISPs over the years and never had this problem.

I've had this for years. It just happens from time to time, then goes away again. I never have worked out why.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

  • Why is it when i try to log in to my Yahoo Mail it says "Bad request"?

    The yahoo site works fine, but when i log in to check my mail it won't let me. Instead it says "Bad Request"

    The web server is using cookies to set up the session. The cookies have an expiration date.

  • Log out 'button' in Yahoo mail is not active/clickable in Firefox

    In Yahoo mail the logout 'button' is not active when using Firefox (currently 3.6.8) (&running on XP) so the onlyb way to Logout is to close the browser ( works fine on same Laptop with IE)

    I have tried these "fixes" numerous times and they never work. :( Thanks for trying.

  • "The page isn't redirecting properly" when trying to log in to my yahoo mail

    I can't access my mail.yahoo since I set ssl. I have deleted the related cookies (yahoo.com and mail.yahoo.com) as well the browser cache. i have restarted FF but still nothing. The mail works fine in Google chrome showing me the secure (https) connection at the browser address.

    '''Try the Firefox Safe Mode''' to see how it works there. The Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.''
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * You can open the Firefox 4.0+ Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or use the Help menu item and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    ''Don't select anything right now, just use "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shift key) to open it again.''
    '''''If it is good in the Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.

    No idea what's happened but no response on screen when trying to sign in. Doesn't say in correct password, user name (haven't changed these) but just doesn't respond. Have cleared cache, cookies etc.

  • I have a 27" imac. If I log on to yahoo mail, the color wheel comes up and i cant check email or send. It only happens as soon as i log into my yahoo mail! Please help someone.

    I am new to Using Apple. I've had my Imac for about 5 months, Recently when I log on to my Yahoo mail, if I click on any of my email, or if I try to compose an email, the color wheel turns on and it just freezes up, I am not able to view my email. This only happens with my Yahoo mail.  Someone please help? Any Suggestions?

    Hi Lizzy..
    If you are using web based email (accessing from Safari), from the Safari menu bar click Safari / Preferences then select the Security tab.
    Click: Show Cookies
    Delete all Yahoo cookies.
    Now from the menu bar again click Safari / Empty Cache.
    Restart your Mac, launch Safari. Try Yahoo.
    If the problem persists, there's a better way to access your Yahoo mail without a browser.
    Launch the Mail application. Either from your Dock or Applications folder.
    From the Mail menu bar click Mail / Preferences then select the Accounts tab then the Account Information tab.
    Click + under the Accounts window on the left.
    Type in your name, Yahoo email address and password.
    Click: Create
    No more having to use Safari or any browser to access your Yahoo mail. Just click the Mail icon in the Dock.

  • I cannot log in to Yahoo mail

    I have version 6.0.2 of Firefox. Within the last 5 days, I cannot log in to my Yahoo mail account. I go from the Yahoo Homepage, to their mail portal and enter my username and password. Then I attempt to hit the submit button and nothing happens. It appears that the submit button does not work. IE it does not give any indication that I am hovering over it with the mouse. This does not happen in IE 6.0. Also is there a way to go back more than one page at a time by hitting the left arrow button?
    Thank you.

    I found that Babylon had changed the proxy setting. Try going to Tools/Options/Advanced/Network/Settings and select "No proxy".
    This has helped but things are still slow and I suspect that some other changes have been made to the Firefox settings.
    Installing unauthorised software on your PC should be made illegal. I will avoid Babylon forever so they have done themselves no favours by trying to be smart!

  • I cannot log into my yahoo mail from my IPad.  I can, however log on using my Dell.

    I cannot log on to my yahoo mail using my IPad as normal.  I changed my yahoo password and it still doesn't work.  However, it works on my Dell using my new password.  Help!

    If deleting and adding it back in doesn't work, try to just wait it out. Yahoo messes with their servers on a regular basis and when they mess with the one your account is on, your account has issues. They often resolve in a few hours to a day or so.
    Sometimes you just have to wait it out because if it's on their end nothing you do will resolve it.

  • I get two new emails opened when logging in to yahoo mail

    when logging in to my yahoo mail account using firefox, about 50% of the time it starts with two new message tabs to be sent to "[email protected]" I have only ever sent one e-mail to this address, it's not in my address book. This doesn't happen when using IE
    == This happened ==
    A few times a week
    == some months ago after I e-mailed elonex

    Did you try to reboot the computer or check for other issues with the keyboard?

  • How to log out of Yahoo Mail???

    I just got my new Nokia C6 and I with one touch I can read the Inbox of my Yahoo-account. And I just realised that if I can do that, someone else who gets my phone in his/her hands can read my personal mail and more.
    How do I log out of my Yahoo-mail?

    I had the same problem so rather than going to my e-mail on the phone I went in to the web and put in yahoo.com, went to my email from there signed in and it also gives you the sign out option. I then saved the e-mail to my bookmarks, just means if I want to go to my mail I go web from the home screen and then click on the wee arrow's on the bottom right of the screen which brings up options with bookmarks.
    Hope this helps

  • Why is it that when I go to Yahoo mail, I can't delete any messages or move to the next page? Stays stuck on page 1..

    Lately, when I log on to my yahoo mail while using firefox, it no longer shows the DELETE option at the top of the email page. So, I cannot delete any emails that I might wish to delete. Also, I cannot get past the first page of my emails. Every time I click on the NEXT PAGE button, it does not move from page 1. This does not happen when I log onto yahoo mail using Internet Explorer. Please advise as to what I can do to correct this. Could it be that I'm not using the latest version of Firefox? I don't know...

    Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
    Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
    To clear cache and cookies do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
    #Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
    #Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
    #From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
    #Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
    Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.
    '''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.)''
    * You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    '''''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.

  • I can't access Yahoo mail anymore - just get an error message

    http://uk.mg40.mail.yahoo.com/dc/launch?.gx=1&.rand=7tajo06mv5r8j
    I get this message every time I log on to my yahoo mail account. Help please!

    Could you try "the usual" first:
    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 Command+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    "3-bar" menu button (or Firefox menu) > Preferences > 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 www.yahoo.com, try either:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * (menu bar) Tools > 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 am having a problem getting the "yahoo messenger options" under Option button in Yahoo Mail after I sign on to Yahoo Mail?

    I log-in to my Yahoo Mail. I click the options button at the top of the screen. A pop up appears with 3 options Theme, Mail Options and messenger options. I select messenger options and nothing happens. Theme & Mail Options work fine. FYI, the Messenger option works under the latest version of IE.

    This is an issue with Yahoo!, not an issue with the iOS Devices, no matter the software version of the device. One way you can confirm if this issue is with Yahoo! is to check your other E-Mail providers. I have done this, my Gmail and Outlook all work fine. Contact Yahoo!, Apple only allows the ability to put the E-Mails on the phone, they are not responsible for the behavior in which Yahoo! operates.
