Messages and Yahoo

I don't get the webcam, or the audio button to appear, they are greyed out. Connection doctor says my network is not set up properly. What settings do I need to use webcam & mic so I can use video and audio through yahoo within messages 8.0?

Hi,
What settings do I need to use webcam & mic so I can use video and audio through yahoo within messages 8.0?
Nothing. (For Messages 8 in Mavericks or Mountain Lion or Lion where it was added to iChat 6)
The account is text Only.
It does not even do File Transfers.
Or, at least in light of EZ Jim's link, this is the case on my iMac (21" i5)
As that Link says, the Yahoo Messenger app does work.
I have version 3.0.2 and it seems to have been listed as a Beta forever despite the numbering system they use.
The Connection Doctor may be misinforming you. Mine says:-
What does the Capabilities option say ?
If this says you can do Multiple Audio Chat and Multiple Video chats then the chances are it will with AIM and Jabber accounts

Messages and Yahoo IM Video Chats not working!

I have a 2011 Macbook Pro running the latest version of mountain Lion. I have tried to video call my friend through yahoo but it wont work at all. Does someone have a solution to this issue? I am really frustrated. I don't want to have to call her on my phone.

HI,
Get an AIM (valid ) name at both ends or get Jabber valid IDs such as GoogleTalk or Facebook IDs as the Yahoo option does not do Video.

On my iphone4 i need to be able to use both TDS and Yahoo e-mail. TDS works only sporadically. For instance, today I was able to both send and receive, then an hour later could not send. got the message that the server was not recognized.

On my iphone4 I need to be able to receive and send both TDS and Yahoo e-mail accounts (I also need to access from my Macbook Pro and my HP desktop). I have NO problem with Yahoo, but with TDS, the e-mail seemed to work on my phone.... and then it didn't.) In adding the TDS account, I chose "other" ( TDS is somehow accessed on the back end through gmail). For the incoming server I used the Incoming Sever Name of pop.gmail.com and the Outgoing Mail Server as smtp.gmail.com. I have using SSL "on" and the server port is 995. Is this setup correct for TDS?

FYI: POP will by default, delete messages from the server after downloading them (This applies to most pop clients, computer or mobile). POP is old tech and is not recommended if IMAP or Exchange are available. The default when setting up a g-mail type account is IMAP. Full synchronization with the server. You may also be able to set it up as an Exchange account, allowing for push e-mail and sync of calendars and contacts as well. See the Gmail help pages for instructions.

My email was working fine on my i -phone s for 3 weeks and now i cannot receive or send e-mails on the same account, i have deleted the account and tried to add it again it comes up with messages like 'yahoo server not found' or asks me to keep typing my

The reason, I included the annotation that I'd upgraded my Itunes, (On my Computer) is B/C in many forums - the very first question, *HELPERS* ask, is. "Do you have the latest version of Itunes downloaded on your computer." I wanted to knock out any obvious replies.
Now- "DO YOU have any idea,"... how your UNHELPFUL remarks, do absolutely nothing but hurt others that might not have the EXPERIENCE you have? How do you expect people to know things without asking questions? Whew! RUDE!!

This article has a link for more information on finding your profile directory: [[Fix the "Could not initialize the application's security component" error message]]. On Windows 7, you can try this (either in a Windows Explorer window address bar or from the start menu search box):
%APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
You may see one folder in there and that's the one you want. If you see more than one, look for the one with the most recently modified files.

Dear Al
Thanks for your reply.
I have just found out what's wrong. I went to the 'more info' section of my Chitchat application and it took me to a link where it explained that Yahoo Chat has ditched chatting with the Java protocol and chatters can now only chat via the Yahoo Messenger protocol, which is Yahoo Instant Messenger with Voice. Unfortunately Yahoo doesn't provide a platform for Yahoo Voice for Macintosh computers. Though the original link I went to provides another link to a thing called 'Adium' from which a Mac can access Yahoo Chat's new protocol, although it's not fully developed yet.
Oh...and thanks so much for letting me know about the Java update release. I did not know that I have to upgrade my system first to recieve the latest update information.

With all the updates with Firefox and Yahoo, My Yahoo homepage no longer works or functions at all. It doe's work on Safari. When I click on anything on My homepage all I get is a message" sorry bad request".

I also often have to do a forced quit as firefox freezes up. I did not have these problems until I tryed to upgrade to firefox4. for Mac.
I tryed re-enstalling 3.5 but ended up with 5 which was worse. It appears that Firefox and Yahoo are no longer compatible.

I know you can't help with my Yahoo problem, however, apparently at some time in the past I have went to the Sync and tried to figure it out on both my laptop and my desktop, because I have the long snyc key information. However, when I go to try to sync both computers I never get the box to enter that key on either one. That is my problem. So should I try and get a new sync key and see if that works.

I can log onto Facebook ,and my yahoo mail but the page doesn't load up all the way.My messages and various things aren't showing up.Can someone please help?

I can log into facebook and yahoo but the will not finish loading up, I had this problem with 1e9 but i switched to firefox 5.0.1 and the problem with ie9 was it said my javascript was turned off, but i had it turned on.Thats when I switched to firefox.I am running this on a windows vista home premium system. Can someone please help me?

You may have to open Mail, go to the upper left corner of the screen and click on the word Mail, open Preferences, click on Accounts, and make sure your Gmail account is still fully set up properly with all proper account and incoming and outgoing Mail Servers properly completed. When you added iCloud capability it may have upset the account settings for Gmail.
Hope this helps

TB stopped retrieving new messages and trying to "reconfigure" my account to fix the problem, now I lost my old messages.

[4/15/14 edit #3] I posted the requested troubleshooting information and made a backup of Profiles using MozBackup, so my remaining problem is the presence of two Inboxes, both receiving messages, and my not being sure which one can safely be deleted nor how to safely delete it.
[4/14/14 edit #2] T'bird's Help taught me where my "Profiles" are stored but I found I had no backup of them. However, I now discover that I have TWO Inboxes - hadn't noticed that quirk before. Thankfully, one of them still contains all of my old messages! The Inbox that still has all of my old mail is listed as a subfolder under "Local Folders" and the Inbox that I thought was my only Inbox is listed as a subfolder under the top folder whose name is my email address. Both Inboxes are now retrieving my new mail. Does this mean I have somehow created two accounts? If so, how do I get rid of the account that uses the Inbox that does not have all my old mail in it? I don't want to get rid of the wrong account but I suspect the "right" one should be listed under my email address, not under "Local Folders". If anyone understands this mess that I've created, I'd really appreciate some advice so I don't make things worse. At least I've now learned what it is that I need to back up.
[4/14/14 edit #1] Following is a major update of the problem I described before (see below). I disabled the Mail Shield portion of my Free Avast antivirus software and discovered that TB was again able to retrieve my email. Then I re-enabled Avast to see if it blocked TB again. It did not. So, apparently simply turning Avast's Mail Shield off and then back on again seems to have fixed the problem. However, I'm now left with the consequences of my having tried to "reset" TB as I described below, namely the loss of a very large number of emails that were stored in my Inbox. So the remaining problem I'd like help with is how to recover those seemingly lost emails. If they remain on my hard drive, where did TB store them and what specific files should I look for? I do have a backup of some of my hard drive (but nothing under Program Files), but I need to know how to identify them, where to look, and how to get them back into my Inbox without deleting its current contents. I'd really like to also retain their original dates, if possible. I'm running 64-bit Windows 8.1. [end of 4/14/14 edit]
TB suddenly stopped downloading my mail today. After I click Get Mail, I can see at the bottom of the screen a very rapid succession of messages; first the "connected..." message, then "checking...", then "downloading 1 of 10...", then finally, "No messages to download" after downloading absolutely none of them. I also noticed that my list of mailboxes was missing the very first entry that showed my email address as the account name. Figuring something major must have been changed in my account configuration, I went through all the settings but saw no problems. Finally, I decided to try to re-establish my same account. That did place my email address again back at the top of the mailbox listings as my working account name but it also created a worse problem. There were now no messages in my inbox, I suppose because I must have created a new account using the same name as the old one, whereas before there were thousands of messages that I had saved for many years (since this is a business). Then when I clicked Get Mail, TB downloaded 383 messages that had not yet been deleted from the server, giving then all today's date (another loss since their original dates were important). But after it finished downloading all of them, clicking Get Mail still does not retrieve any messages past the time that it stopped retrieving them earlier today. Those newest messages remain on the server - but now there are 14 of them instead of 10. The same succession of TB messages appears at the bottom of the screen, but now it says "Downloading 1 of 14..." but still downloads none of them and ends with, "No messages to download". This sequence of messages will repeat as often as I try to retrieve mail but it can still count how many it is NOT downloading. Two questions: (1) Are the thousands of messages that were stored in my Inbox still stored somewhere on my computer and is there any way to recover them? (2) How can I get TB to start retrieving my current email again? I guess it's obvious that these are important problems to me and that I'm totally stumped. Many thanks in advance.

Server can't be found messages and real slow page loads or failing to load

I'm getting "server can't be found" messages and pages not loading happening alot lately. I thought it was the latest Firefox I had (1.5.0.2) but it's happening with Safari 2.0.3 as well. I thought it might also be my ISP since the cable modem line that comes in from the street now gets taped for my landlady's house for internet access as well as her tv service. I have had internet using this connection for about 3 years now and she has had tv service since before I moved in but only lately did she start to get internet access as well. I thought perhaps they screwed up something when they connected her to the internet as well. I live in a separate house a little back from the road than she does. (I haven't checked but I would assume there is only one cable feed coming to her house. Mine got split off of hers and then is buried underground til it reaches my house. I want to look at the connections on her house and tighten anything that is loose too.) These slowdowns/can't connects happen when she is not home so we can rule out her using the line causing trouble.
With all these clues, what do you think it can be? I'm visiting sites I've always visited, not new ones. I let autocomplete pick the URL so the URLs are all from my current bookmarks and are places I go all the time.
Pages tend to either load right away or they take forever. I'll get some progress on the location bar (with Safari) or the progress bar with Firefox and then after a LONG wait (a minute or so), it will say it can't connect. If this was a car it'd be driving VERY haltingly. Refreshing either does nothing or loads the page instantly.
What do you think it is? the normal ups and downs of the internet or something wrong with a) my machine/OS or b) my internet connection. One change I've made lately are to use and then reset to default, Tiger Cache Cleaner's Optimize Tune for Broadband (and cache cleaner to troubleshoot a Yahoo IM problem which was solved by deleting all Yahoo IM related files and reinstaling the IM).
Many thanks.

I looked at this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=453191&tstart=0 and it suggested I stop Safari from caching. I didn't see any way to do that without using something like what someone suggested elsewhere: Safari Enhancer (3.3). I set Safari Enhancer to Deactivate Cache. I also tried accepting All cookies; I'd had it set to only 'accept only from sites I navigate to'.
What do you know. My browsing is mostly fantastic! I've never seen a browser act so fast on a Mac. Over the years (since 1997 or so) I've used Netscape, IE, Firefox, Mozilla, iCab, Opera, and others but all were always sluggish (w/ OS 7, 9 and X on a 500 mhz Powerbook Firewire and this machine.). Now, pages mostly load - boom; I don't watch them load as I always did before. I still do get some that hang while the one remaining item out of the total loads but overall it is much better. No 'server can't be found messages' since doing this.
I am not certain that accepting All cookies has anything to do with this but I am pretty happy with turning the cache off. (I have a cable modem.)
Maybe this will help others?
I'll keep posting if anything changes. I do look forward to going back to Firefox, assuming turning the cache off will be the cure there too, since it has the features I like but at least it is encouraging the Safari can be so fast. (And so far has better bookmark management than Firefox's which are horrendous.)
Cheers,
John L

Google search, youtube, facebook, and yahoo all giving 404 errors 9-9-13

Today I was having issues with my internet. After calling my provider (Time Warner Cable) and doing the proper troubleshooting it has boiled down to it is a problem with Firefox.
Whenever I load Firefox, I have it set so the same tabs open each time. Google, Facebook, Youtube, and Yahoo. Normally they would load and I would start my business or what-have-you, but today all are giving 404 errors. I have refresh the page it does not resolve the issue or if I manually type in the page address in, it too, does not load. Facebook will load properly once I type in the website in the bar and load it that way. If I open a new tab and try these websites (Google, Youtube, Yahoo, and Facebook) they all give me the 404 error, but if I click on the Facebook logo in the left hand corner of the page, it will load my news feed. CNN, TWC, and Gmail all load fine and I am able to use the services. Another thing I tried was disconnecting manually from my internet and then reconnecting. I changed my SSI and reset the modem several times still to no avail. If I load Google using my phone, it comes up fine, same as all the other sites listed. I restarted my computer twice (each after both resets of my modem) and I still have this problem. Now the "funny" thing now is that if I load these pages in Internet Explorer, they all load without any 404 errors. I have not tried clearing my cache or history today, and I checked the Firefox website to make sure I have the current version (I normally ALWAYS update my Firefox when it is requested). I don't want to have to uninstall Firefox I JUST got all my bookmarks back from the last uninstall I had to do (accidentally loaded an unwanted toolbar, yuck!) and also this was working fine yesterday and early this morning (2-3am central time)
ANY information regarding this issue will be welcome! Thanks!

The 404 or Not Found error message is a HTTP standard response code indicating that the client was able to communicate with the server, but the server could not find what was requested. How To Fix the 404 Not Found Error
Retry the web page by pressing F5, clicking the refresh/reload button, or trying the URL from the address bar again.
The 404 Not Found error might appear for several reasons even though no real issue exists, so sometimes a simple refresh will often load the page you were looking for.
Check for errors in the URL. Often times the 404 Not Found error appears because the URL was typed wrong or the link that was clicked on points to the wrong URL.
Move up one directory level at a time in the URL until you find something.
For example, if www.web.com/a/b/c.htm gave you the 404 Not Found error, move up to www.web.com/a/b/. If you get nothing here (or an error), move up to www.web.com/a/. This should lead you toward what you're looking for or at least confirm that it's no longer available.
Tip: If you have moved all the way up to the website's homepage, try to run a search for the information you're looking for. If the site doesn't have a search function, try navigating to the page you want using category links to dig deeper into the site.
Search for the page at a popular search engine. It's possible that you simply have the entirely wrong URL in which case a quick Google or Bing search should get you where you want to go.
If you do find the page you were after, update your bookmark or favorite to avoid the HTTP 404 error in the future.
Clear your browser's cache if you have any indication that the 404 Not Found message might just be yours. For example, if you can reach the URL from your phone but not from your tablet, clearing the cache on your tablet's browser might help.
You might also consider clearing your browser's cookies, or at least the one(s) involved with the website in question, if clearing the cache didn't work.
Change the DNS servers used by your computer but usually only if an entire website is giving you a 404 error, especially if the website is available to those on other networks (e.g. your mobile phone network or a friend in another city).
404's on an entire website isn't particularly common unless your ISP or government filters/censors websites. No matter the reason, if it does happen, giving another set of DNS servers a try is a good step to take. See my Public DNS Servers List for some alternatives.
Finally, if all else fails, contact the website directly. If they've removed the page you're after then the 404 error is completely legitimate and they should be able to tell you that. If they've moved the page, and are generating 404's instead of redirecting visitors to the new page, they might be very happy to hear from you.
A WHOIS search, using the site's domain name (e.g. weather.com) as your search term, should give you some contact information.
If the WHOIS search isn't helpful, know that many sites can be reached via email at [email protected], replacing website.com with the real website name. Contacting a site via one of their social networking profiles is another good idea.

Problems with text messages and internet access

I have an Apple 5c and over the last few weeks my text messages to most people had not been completing the send. Now, in addition, I am not receiving most messages and I can't access the internet for most apps (like maps, yahoo search, youtube). Is anyone else having this problem? Does anyone have any suggestions as to why this is happening and how to go about fixing it?

Try removing then reinserting the SIM card -

It may just need a refresh to reconnect to the network again.

Yahoo POP: How to get copy of sent messages onto Yahoo servers?

I have a question regarding the Mac Mail program built into OS X. Is there a way that when sending an email (my address is a Yahoo Plus address) that a copy of it can be saved on Yahoo's servers in my sent folder?
Sending email through my iPhone or iPad copies a copy of it to Yahoo's server but Mac Mail does not seem to do this. Is there a setting I am missing?
I want to be able to log on to Yahoo webmail and see the emails I have sent via Mac Mail.
Thanks!

Hello egiggy! I can certainly understand the need for retrieving the content of your text messages! In order to go further than 90 days, the only way to do this would be with a court ordered subpeona or through the request of a law official. You can request more information by contacting us directly at 800-922-0204.
Additionally, another great tool to keep record of your text messages is by using our service, Verizon Messages. http://vz.to/1LgAc7H I personally use this feature and love it! It keeps a record of all of my stored text messages, and upon installation can go back 90 days as well.
Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns! Thank you and good luck!

E51 Gmail and Yahoo mail box access

Dear All
I was trying to configure the gmail and yahoo mail accounts in the new E51 which I have bought. I have correctly configured the mail setup with the correct username and password. But I am getting an error "Invalid Mail for exchange credentials. Check credential settings". The pop up is coming repeatedly on the phone even if am not using the same.
Please help me out for the same.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Joseph

Hi Guys!
I'm sure by now your problems are solved. Nevertheless, let me simplify this for you. I have both my Gmail and my Yahoo mail setup on my E51 and they work beautifully. One thing you should be aware of is that while Gmail offers mobile & POP access free, you need to upgrade to a business account in yahoo to avail the same. That being said, here are the settings for each:
For Gmail:
Connection Settings > Incoming E-Mail
User name: Enter your complete Gmail e-mail address including '@gmail.com'
Password: Enter your Password
Incoming Mail Server: imap.gmail.com
Access Point in Use: Select the active data connection
Mailbox Name: Whatever you like
Mailbox Type: IMAP4
Security (ports): SSL/TLS
Port: Default
Connection Settings > Outgoing E-Mail
My e-mail address: Enter your complete Gmail e-mail address including '@gmail.com'
User name: Again enter your complete Gmail e-mail address including '@gmail.com'
Password: Enter your password
Outgoing Mail Server: smtp.gmail.com
Access Point in Use: Select the active data connection
Security (ports): StartTLS
Port: 587
User Settings:
My Name: Whatever name you'd like to appear in your sent emails
Send Message: Choose 'Immediately' if you would like your phone to connect to the internet and send the message everytime you send an e-mail. Otherwise choose 'during next connection'
Send copy to self: Choose yes if you would like a copy of all mails that you send using your mobile, to be sent to your inbox too.Otherwise choose No.
Include Signature: Your choice. If you choose yes, enter the signature text
New E-Mail alerts: On
Reply to: If you would like people to reply to a different e-mail id then the current one, enter that.Else choose Off.
Delete E-mails From: Select Phone or Server. If you select phone, th emails get deleted only from the phone, although the header still remains till the next time you refresh. What this means is that mails deleted from you phone will continue to remain on your server and will be accessible the next time you access your mail using a PC.
Retrieval Settings:
E-Mail to retrieve: No choice here. Gmail only allows you to retrieve headers first. If you feel a mail is important you can select it and download the entire message later.
Retrieval Amount: Set how many e-mails you would like downloaded
IMAP4 folder path: This is set to 'Unix path' by default. Let it be
Folder Subscriptions: No changes required here
Automatic Retrieval: Select E-mail retrieval and set it to 'Enabled'.
Retrieval Days: All Days
Retrieval Hours: All Hours
Retrieval Intervalet it to 5 mins if you would like e-mails to get downloaded to your phone almost as soon as they arrive (Like Push E-Mail). Else select a time interval as desired.
