Yahoo homepage doesn't open

unable to open yahoo.com. I'm able to open other bookmark and site but not yahoo. Please help, my husband is a veteran and we communicate thru e-mail.

A new tab opens by default as a blank tab (about:blank). 
If that isn't the case then an extension has changed that behavior.

When opening a second window, homepage doesn't open and can't access any other site, stays a blank white screen.

After updating to Firefox 6, every time I open a second window, all I get is a blank, white page. My homepage doesn't open, either, even when I hit the home button. I have to manually type in my homepage address, and then, it's the only address that will show in the address bar, even after I leave the page or open any other tabs. The same thing happens when I open new tabs in the second window. Also, the back and forward arrows, stop, and refresh buttons do not work in the second window. None of the short-cut keys on the keyboard will work with in the second window, either. Most of the time, any page that I go to, in the second window, continues to load, never fully loading.
I even went back to Firefox 5 to see if that would solve the problem, but it didn't. I still have the same issues.
Everything appears to be working fine in the first window.
How can I clear all this up?
EDIT: I waited a few days and reinstalled Firefox 6.0 and everything seems to be working okay.

There's a good chance this is related to a bug that kicks in when you do not have Flash running in any tab and you open a new window to a page that does use Flash. The details are in this recent thread: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/955659 Opening New Windows and Shockwave Flash].
I don't know whether opening a Flash site in a private window makes this problem occur more frequently. Maybe it does because the new window is more isolated from the previous one???

Homepage doesn't open inside of iPhoto

I have always used iPhoto and published to the web directly from opening homepage within iPhoto (current 5.0.4). When I try that with the new update homepage does not open (last couple of weeks). There is a little blip and then nothing. There used to be a button on the bottom of iPhoto to publish to web, now in iPhoto 5 you use homepage under Share- am I correct?
Well, I updated from Panther to Tiger last week thinking maybe the "homepage thing" would go away... still there.
I have no problem publishing pages by exporting the pics to my iDisk, waiting for the sync and then opening inside of Safari--- I'd really rather not do this.

There is still a Homepage button at the bottom. It may be that your window is too small and you either need to enlarge it or click on the chevrons (>>)at the bottom right to see the hidden buttons.
After updating to Tiger did you repair disk permissions? A good thing to do after any software update or installation. You might also clear out iPhoto's cache files. You can do it manually by going to User/Library/Caches folder and deleting any iPhoto cache folder you find in there. Or you can use OnyX to clean out all of the user caches.

On yahoo mail doesn't open online messenger contats windows when i want to chat

Yahoo Mail has a web messenger, in Firefox 8 all worked fine, but after upgrading to 9.0.1 when i click on a contact in my contacts list (to send a IM) nothing happens, in Firefox 8, when i clicked on a contact, a window opened and i could type my message, insert smiles... and send messages. So in Firefox 9.0.1 when i do the same thing nothing happens, no window appears and i can't type or send messages. Tried disabling adblockplus, but this didn't solved the problem.

I updated safari and now it opens with a blank page. I can open a page after that but my homepage doesn't open.

When I launch safari it opens with a blank page.

Hey mate,
I was having the same problem. If you upgraded to Lion - apparently there is a 'general tab' in the system preferences that has a box that you need to un check. (The box says something about restoring all last windows from last session)
If you updated Safari but are not using Lion, here is how to fix it. Simply delete this item fromyour Mac HD and restart Safari.
[USERHOME]/library/preferences/com.apple.safari.plist
Hope this helps... It worked for me!

When opening firefox to my Yahoo homepage, all of the formatting is screwed up. If I open it under explorer, it's fine. Any suggestions as to why firefox is messing up the yahoo formatting?

The whole yahoo homepage is pushed to the left side and listed in a columnar format. None of the picture graphics appear as well. It's seems like yahoo isn't compatible. The whole page is setup in almost an outline format with numbers for each topic. (for example, Mail is showing as #1 with a small box with a decimal underneath. #2 is Autos with a box with a decimal underneath..and so on. The links are just boxes and there are decimals throughout. At the top left of the page, displayed over the Yahoo title is "YAI". If I close out and open yahoo under explorer, the site is perfectly normal so this tells me it has something to do with the firefox formatting. Using windows vista 2007.

I do not want to download another virus program.. I do not believe it is a virus. I am running the full version of Norton 360 and it is doing a daily scan. I have Windows 7, 64 bit OS.
This is very irritating !! If I wanted Yahoo I would ask for it !

I can't use Yahoo messenger (it doesn't open the dialogue window), but in other PCs with older versions of Firefox I don't have problems

I can't use Yahoo messenger (it doesn't open the dialogue window), but in other PCs with older versions of Firefox I don't have problems
As stated earlier even though when I have an incoming message I hear the "Beep" Firefox does not open the dialogue window as it used to do.
Also I am not able to open a new dialogue window or tab by clicking on an online contact of mine.

this issue maybe fixed in beta/ nightly, you should try it

Hi,
Please try setting '''WhenFirefox starts''' to '''Show my homepage''' in Firefox '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Options''' > '''General'''. [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Options%20window%20-%20General%20panel?as=u Options > General].

Firefox requires sign in to My Yahoo homepage every time I open Firefox.

I have My Yahoo set as my homepage. I have the box checked on my Yahoo account to stay signed in for two weeks. I just started to use Firefox as my primary browser. Unlike IE 8, Firefox requires me to sign in to my personal My Yahoo page with my user name and password each time I open Firefox. Is there a way to avoid having to sign in to My Yahoo each time I open Firefox?

I have the same issue. I see that this issue was posted 7 months ago and as far as I can see here there's no resolution yet! What's the point for this forum. I'm getting pretty frustrated with firefox browser and setting it up without annoyances. If there's a resolution for this issue why not list it here. Firefox is no gem and definitely not as functional as IE.

Since I made my Safari update yesterday, safari doesn't open my chosen webpage anymore at the start... Frustrating ! What can I do to have my opening page again ?

Go to Preferences-> general and change 3 settings there:
1. "Safari opens with" = "A new window:
2. "New windows open with" = "Homepage"
3. "Homepage" = <your chosen webpage>

Airprint is for IOS devices and thus has no relevance to this issue.
Connect the printer to your Wireless Network and use Bonjour to detect nd connect it.
That's wrong. AirPrint is not just for iOS devices. Since HP doesn't provide drivers for this printer, they say to use AirPrint:

Get rid of the "Trending" headline on top of my Yahoo homepage that swiches among names & headlines and that doen't happen on Internet Explorer. Thnx.

Please get rid of the "Trending" headline on top of my Yahoo homepage in Firefox. This "Trending" switches among names & headlines. This doesn't happen on Internet Explorer. I recently started using Firefox and named my Yahoo homepage as my homepage in Firefox. I've always used this Yahoo homepage on all my computers in Internet Explorer. I want to use Firefox and have my customized Yahoo homepage as my homepage in Firefox. Please help! Thanks a lot,
Karen

Flash player works on youtube but not yahoo homepage

Flash player works on youtube but when trying to watch video on yahoo homepage says need to download adobe flash player I have already uninstalled several times but still won't work please help

YouTube uses javascript to determine if Flash Player is installed and switches to HTML5 (MP4), which requires no plugin, if Flash Player isn't detected. Yahoo doesn't do that yet. Here's why this is important, especially if you're using IE11.
The pages can't recognize the browser, so they don't recognize any of the plugins, like Flash Player. This is a known problem with Internet Explorer 11, which Microsoft has been aware of since October 18 when they released their latest "untested" browser. So far, Microsoft has made NO indication that they have any plan to fix it soon.
Microsoft's recommendation is to use Compatibility View for affected pages, and "pretend" you're using an different browser. Trouble with that is it has seen limited success at best, and you have to individually enable it for EVERY page that has problems.
I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser.
Firefox (from Mozilla)
Opera (from Opera)
Safari (from Apple)
Chrome (from Google)
ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.
