Safari Crashing/Freezing with Yahoo Mail

I think this has already been mentioned but hoping Apple will do something about it if we keep bugging them.
Safari keeps freezing when I try to attach a file using Yahoo Mail. I have to force quit, even though it doesn't say that Safari's unresponsive.
Combined with the fact that Safari has also become very slow at loading pages, if they load at all, I've reverted to using Firefox. Thanks for the version 5.0 update, really regret installing it.

HI,
I think this has already been mentioned but hoping Apple will do something about it
It's not Apple's responsibility to update third party software.
If you have BrowserPlus installed, it's not compatible with Safari 5.
How to uninstall BrowserPlus: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/browserplus/uninstall.html
You can contact Yahoo here for that. http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/yahoomail/contactus/index.html
You're not the only Yahoo user having problems with this... http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=11661807#11661807

  • I cannot open my Yahoo Mail but everything else is OK.  When I click Yahoo Mail Icon, I get this error message "Safari Cannot open this page.  Safari can not establish secure connection with Yahoo Mail.

    It sounds as though a script on the site, or an advertisement, is not working quite right...
    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.
    (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")
    (2) Remove the site's cookies using either of these. Save any pending work first.
    While viewing a page on the site:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

  • Macbook Pro having problems in Safari with yahoo mail

    I am having trouble with yahoo mail in safari, I go to the mail and no matter what I click on it does Nothing , I am so frustrated I cant stand it

    Have you read for possible solutions over in the "More Like This" thread over here?----------------------->
    Contacted Yahoo tech support?

  • Safari 6534.50 hangs with Yahoo mail.

    This happens about 75% of the time. Command Q will exit and allow another try. Must be some kind of Javascript loop or something like that. Fan speeds up too. Yahoo mail page will open but cursor does not change to a pointer to allow selecting inbox.

    This happens about 75% of the time
    Instead of accessing your Yahoo mail via Safari, there's another way and you'll avoid the "loop".
    Open Mac Mail. From the Mail menu bar click Mail / Preferences then select the Accounts tab then the Account Information tab.
    Click + under the Accounts panel on the left.
    Enter your name, Yahoo user name and password then click Create.
    Now instead of using Safari to access your Yahoo mail, just click the Mail icon in your Dock, or you can launch Mail from the Applications folder.

  • Running snow leopard 10.6.8,safari 5.1.10-yahoo mail keeps asking me to update my browser but there's no link. Does it think I'm running Mavericks or what;s going on. Have carried out updates

    Running Snow Leopard 10.6.7 & Safari 5.1.10
    Problem is with Yahoo mail which keeps asking me to update my Safari browser but everything is up to date as far as I can tell. Have reset Safari & empties cache.
    But no change- every time I go to open Yahoo mail it goes to a page with update boxes for Firefox & Safari asking me to upgrade but on hitting Safari upgrade box it just takes me to an Apple page that explains the benefits of the new Safari ( Mavericks maybe ) with no option to upgrade. Can anyone suggest an answer to this annoyance.
    Thanks very much,
    Dino.

    Your post is pretty lengthy and I have to admit I didn't read it all. Please try restarting in Safe Mode, if that doesn't work please do both a SMC and PRAM reset. These may take 2-3 attempts.
    SMC RESET
    Shut down the computer.
    Unplug the computer's power cord and all peripherals.
    Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
    Release the power button.
    Attach the computers power cable.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer.
    PRAM RESET
    Shut down the computer.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.

  • Firefox does not work with yahoo mail, why ???

    for some reason firefox does not work with the new Email window on yahoo.com All the other browsers work with yahoo mail just fine!! Are you working on a fix???

    </blockquote>
    I have had the problem of Yahoo! mail freezing (my computer freezing) with Firefox right after I boot up my computer and sign into my Yahoo! mail account. I have to either shut down my computer or use Control + Alt and press Delete to eventually bring up the Task Manager option. Then, once the choice for Task Manager comes up, I can click on cancel and Yahoo! mail and my computer have "un-frozen." I have followed all the recommendations for updating Firefox, clearing caches, checking if an Add-On is the problem, etc., as well as all the recommendations on Yahoo! help pages. Nothing has improved the situation to date. Firefox info says the problem is with Yahoo! Yahoo! says it is a browser problem. I just want the problem to be fixed.

  • Why can't i make attachments with yahoo mail in the newest Firefox?

    i use yahoo mail. in the old versions of firefox it works perfectly. i use now firefox 3.6.25 if i upgrade to the latest firefox, yahoo mail doesn't work anymore. i can't attach anything. the button 'attach' stays grey and unclickable. it is the reason i don't upgrade. can someone help me? o i work on a macbook pro, with mac os 10.6.8 running.

    Sorry, I don't have any other suggestions, except that I did find a thread on the Apple Discussions forum about a similar problem with Safari and Yahoo mail attachments:

    Re: Safari doesn't work with yahoo mail: always getting beach ball<br>
    Feb 7, 2012 10:15 AM (in response to Anamariela)
    Well, my problem with Yahoo Classic is different--I cannot click on some of the buttons! Very weird. No beach ball, but when I attach files to send an email and click on "Attach Files", nothing. Same with a couple others.
    Going to try to install the new Flash as Mark suggested. Anyone else have this issue?
    I probably should change to Yahoo's newer mail app but I just prefer the Classic version.
    You might want to read the other replies in that Apple discussion and try the suggestions ... or just contact Yahoo help, if no one else replies here.

  • Firefox crashes intermittantly on yahoo mail

    When firefox open with yahoo mail displayed, whether i am using the page or its in the background, it crashes, it sends reports. this started towards the end of the last version 4.*** and now on also on version 5. its getting to be a real nuisance.
    When using yahoo, and when I am deleting mail is when it seems to occur most often.

    Installing a Flash plug-in took care of this problem

  • Safari/KeyChain Not Saving Yahoo Mail Login/Password information?

    I have a MacBook Pro laptop, Mac OSX Version 10.6.8 and Safari browser Version 5.1.7  Snow Leopard. The problem is ... I recently changed my passwords on my Yahoo Mail accounts.   Safari will not prompt to save my login information for Yahoo Mail. It works with other web sites and worked with yahoo mail before I changed passwords.
    My attempts to correct the problem have been unsuccessful. I have tried the following: 
    1. Ran Updates
    2. Clicked on Safari > opened Preferences >clicked Auto-Fill all 3 boxes checked
    3. Finder >Applications > utilities > KeyChain     I found Yahoo mail and removed the old ones.
    4. With KeyChain open > Clicked KeyChain Access > Clicked KeyChain First Aid and Verify    No problems found
    5. KeyChain Access>  File > New Password Item>  Typed in KeyChain item Name as https://login.yahoo.com and tried mail.yahoo.com typed in Information and saved.
    I have checked the apple sites, the only thing I have found is what I did in #2. the boxes were already checked.
    May be I am missing the obvious here. If there is a solution I would appreciate the help. ?

    I'm having the exact same issue with Yahoo only on my iMac after changing the password.  I've been trying to fix it since yesterday, and yes I'm updated.  I also tried several fixes for the trojan.  Not luck for me yet.
    Corrections Completed for Safari 5.1.7:
    1- verified all updates completed
    2- deleted cookies for everything
    3- deleted keychain access for yahoo account. Interesting is that after deleting cookies and keychain, the username and old password keep populating but it hasn't stored the new password because I never received the prompt to store.

    Google them to confirm the settings that you need for the outgoing server, then check the setting you entered on the pad.  Pay real close attention to the outgoing server name, and port.  You may need to change in on the pad. 

  • Default Mail app not working with yahoo mail. Won't update.

    Default Maill app not working with Yahoo Mail.
    It stopped working the other day. I tried everything but it wouldn't update new mail. The yahoo account itself is fine because I can see new mail on Yahoo or a yahoo app.
    I tried deleting the account and putting it back on, but now it has 0 mail in any part of it. Nothing has synced.
    What do I do?
    iPad 2 latest OS.

    A lot of people have been unable to access Yahoo e-mail on their iPhones or iPads. My wife’s iPad was not downloading Yahoo mail, although her iPhone was. Both used IOS 8.2. We tried deleting the account several times and troubleshooting all of the other settings. The problem appears to have been that allowing the IOS to automatically create the account on the iPad resulted in the wrong settings for the incoming server. The following procedure, pieced together from two websites, fixed the problem for us. So far, so good.

    https://help.yahoo.com/kb/mobile-mail/imap-server-settings-sln4075.html
    On the iPhone, tap Settings.
    Tap Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
    Tap your Yahoo account, then delete it.
    Tap Add Account.
    Tap Other.
    Tap Add Mail Account.
    Complete the Name, Address (email address), Password and Description fields.
    Click Next.
    Ensure IMAP is selected.
    Enter the following incoming mail server information:
    Incoming Mail (IMAP) Server - Requires SSL
    Server: imap.mail.yahoo.com
    Port: 993
    Requires SSL: Yes
    Hostname is mail.yahoo.com.
    Username is your full email address
    Password is the same password used to access webmail.
    Enter the following outgoing mail server information:
    Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - Requires SSL
    Server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
    Port: 465 or 587
    Requires SSL: Yes
    Requires authentication: Yes
    Username is your full email address
    Password is the same password used to access webmail. It may have been entered for you.
    Tap Next.
    The iPhone will establish an SSL connection to your IMAP and SMTP servers.
    That’s all!

  • No email invitation for a user with Yahoo mail

    I have sent an invitation to myself and someone else and it worked fine. I have another user with Yahoo mail. I sent her an invitation twice and she has never received it. I told her to check her junk mail to see if it was filtered, but she says its not their either.
    1) Is their an issue with Yahoo mail?
    2) Is their a way for me to get the invitation link as a Web Developer and email it to her manually?

    I typically just set up an account for the user. I use either their server's email or a generic gmail account.
    Given the process is quite a pain in the butt...  I sign up both accounts, First the new email then the  Adobe account for the end user... I accept and test the account to verify it works on my end and then I just send them the login info. They much more prefer a simple process like that.
    The whole sign up / username... blahblahblah.. in the end all the Publisher or Editor needs is a login name and password. There is absolutely no need for them to be burdened with the process. There is absolutely ZERO interaction with the email account that you sign up with other than accepting the invite. InContext doesn't notify you when your page has been updated, if you have new assignents from your Publisher... NOTHING.
    I saw no reason to even have the client have to go through the process. Make it simple for them.
    sign up a one time disposable email
    sign up an adobe account name
    Send / accept invite youself
    Then a one line email to client, "To edit your site use this login name and password"
    IMO.. if I am going to have to pay for this service provided to MY customer... I'm not giving anyone (Adobe included) their personal info, email, address, name..

  • Safari 6 freezes with OSX 10.7.5

    I'm using a recent Safari 6.1.6 update - and am now experiencing a problem I never had before with Safari on my OSX 10.7.5 MacBook Air system.
    I am unable to use Safari for more than fifteen minutes or so before it freezes, and always when I'm switching to a new tab to view something. I never have more than six or seven tabs open. This is particularly irritating when I'm downloading material at the time, which is instantly lost, of course. Safari did freeze with earlier versions, but rarely more than once or twice a week.
    Is there a way to return to earlier versions of Safari? Would this help? Any suggestions - preferable a solution - gratefully received.
