Yahoo mail display completly screwed up

Yahoo Mail, until yesterday, worked fine on the Touch via wifi. I changed nothing in the Touch's Safari settings nor in YM's settings. But, now when I go to MyYahoo (which is still ok) then to Sign In (still ok) my personal Yahoo page comes up and works fine. Hitting Mail gets me to my mail page, and it too works fine. But when I hit In Box I get that page in a completely scrambled format. The banner adds are on top of everything, and I can get to just bits and pieces of the page and I can see none of the list of messages. Every other aspect of Yahoo works ok as do all other websites. Any suggestions will be appreciated, thanks

You said
. . .the only thing I can trace my steps too was recently installing a large font library.
There's your problem.
Read the Links Tom provided for you.
(That Garbled Fonts one is great, Tom !!)
If you follow his advice, check the usual suspects, and you still have problems, you could take your Users (YourName)>Library>Fonts folder to the desktop. Rename it "Trouble Fonts."
Then try Safari again. If it works, it's one or more fonts in the large font library you installed. Then comes the fun part of figuring out which one it was.

HT5648 OS10.6.8 Firefox 24.0 The new Yahoo mail shows no graphics. However, the new Yahoo mail displays correctly in Safari and Chrome. I believe this has to to with the settings for Javascript. Help me, please.

OS10.6.8, Firefox 24.0
The new Yahoo mail shows no graphics using Firefox 24.0 - just identical rectangles where new icons should be.\. However, the new Yahoo mail displays correctly in Safari and Chrome. I believe this has to to with the settings for Javascript. Those settings aren.t easy to access in the most recent Firefox 24.0 version. Help me, please.

The settings for Javascript are either on or off, Fireefox 24 doesn't give you a option to turn off Javascript, unless you installed something like NoScript extension (or some other Javascipt blocking add-on)
If NoScript, then you need to use the View > Toolbars > Customize and drag the NoScript "Temp Allow All" button to the toolbar area to enable all enabled scripts (including Javascript) on that web page.
Under the Firefox Help menu is a option to restart with add-ons disabled to see if something you might have installed is causing your problem.
Reinstall Firefox or create another user account and run Firefox there to try to localize your issue.
I'm having no problem here on 10.6.8 in Firefox, Chrome or Safari, Yahoo Mail works perfectly.

Yahoo mail display - Action buttons like reply, delete, forward, and colors do not display. The "clear cache" solution does not help.

The above sums it up. What used to be prompts for action are now small boxes with number and an alphabet letter. I used the "clear the cache" and the "allow pages to use their own font" solutions; neither one worked. This included re-booting after I tried the solution.

Oops, posted too fast.
Some other users have reported this problem persisting allowing pages to choose their own fonts. Is it possible that you are blocking downloadable fonts? You can check the about:config preferences editor here:
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''gfx''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) If the '''gfx.downloadable_fonts.enabled''' preference is bold and user set to false, double-click it to restore the default value of true.

Yahoo emails display sender, subject and body in email listing

The past couple of days my yahoo mail displays subject and as much of the body that space allows. The folders are all messed up. The whole screen is a mess. Nothing like it used to be. It works fine in IE.

Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems.
*View > Zoom > Reset (Ctrl+0 (zero); Command+0 on Mac)
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Zoom_text_of_web_pages
If you have made changes to Advanced font settings like increasing the minimum/default font size then try the default minimum setting "none" and the default font size 16 in case the current setting is causing problems.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)
Make sure that you allow pages to choose their own fonts.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced: [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"

Yahoo Mail on iphone problem

I do have yahoo mail on my iphone for a while and it was working perfect.
Few days ago I got:
Cannot Get Mail The user name or password for "[email protected]" is incorrect.
I do not have any problem when I login from my PC with same User name and password.
When I try to set up my email from I phone again. Here is what I got:
Cannot Get Mail The user name or password for “imap.apple.mail.yahoo.com” is incorrect.
I can make all my friends’ yahoo mail work on my I phone but only the one mail account used to be working fine does not working now.
Can someone help me?

I've had Yahoo Mail Plus for over 5 years without any problems (Yahoo Mail "Plus" means you pay $20/yr to get POP mail access using a standard mail clients). But since I got my iPhone 3GS, I've been having frequent problems accessing Yahoo Mail from my Mac Mail client, via web browser, etc.. My iPhone replaced a Treo 700p, and I used to have no problems, even with two Mac Mail clients and the Treo accessing my POP mail every 5 minutes. Now, since my frequent problems started, I've cut way back on the POP access on all my mail clients (which Yahoo Support told me to do), but the problem persists.
QUESTION: Do you guys with problems have the standard (free) Yahoo Mail, or Mail Plus with POP access?
THEORY: When I got my new 3GS, it automatically imported the mail settings from my Mac Mail client. However, instead of keeping my POP settings for Yahoo Mail, it changed the setting to the Push/IMAP for my iPhone. The Push settings would be great for most people, but not so much for people with Mail Plus who access mail with POP settings. The problem is, when an email client accesses POP mail, it tells the IMAP mail client that all email has been read (when it's simply been downloaded). I think Apple should not, by default, import Yahoo Mail settings which are set to POP, and then change the settings to IMAP on the iPhone -- at least ask the user before making this change. Anyway, my uneducated theory is that the simultaneous IMAP and POP access to my Yahoo Mail Plus account screwed something up, and now I keep having problems accessing mail. I've since deleted the default Push Yahoo Mail account from my iPhone, and set it up from scratch as a POP account. But my mail problems persist.
Also note that, a detailed debug message I get sometimes (usually with error code 5, though once with error code 20) always list the same date/time, which is really close to when I got my iPhone, and also when my problems started. In my mind, that supports my theory. I've been waiting for Yahoo Support to address this detailed debug report, but they keep on giving vague responses (basically telling me over and over that my issues are due to accessing my mail too frequently).
Here's the error code details I've received when trying to access my Yahoo Mail via web browser (note the date in line 3):
Error #5:
0: ListMessagesFromIds
1: SOAP-ENV:Server.MailboxOpenFailed.Busy
2: Error opening mailbox: mailbox busy
3: V2.1.0 B1357.22 06/18/2009 07:28 AM

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

Yahoo and AllMyFaves display incorrectly. Yahoo Mail opens, but cannot see massages or do anything.?

Yahoo Mail opens, but no messages display.
Regular Yahoo website display is completely messed up.
AllMyFaves is my homepage. It displays in really small font, but no website logos or hyperlinks display.

I have two yahoo accounts and I know as they 'improved' their servers I had periodic outages. It'd work fine on my webmail on my computer, webmail on the iPad, but not via the mail app. And it was stuff on their end. It may be a case of wait and see and you may need to eventually remove/readd the account on your iPhone.
When the issue is on their end, unfortunately there's not much for users to do beyond wait it out or find work arounds.

Yahoo sky mail displaying strange interface

I am viewing yahoo mail via Sky, on my iPad and the user interface/ display has changed completely just now for no apparent reason. I don't know how to do a screen shot on my iPad to show what it looks like but it's very basic, with tabs for inbox etc at the top, rather than on the left side, it's also huge size font but not responding to attempts to squash it smaller.Any ideas how to restore it to how it was before?

Try clearing the cache by following the guide here,

BT Yahoo mail and Internet Explorer display issues

There seems to be a problem with using a version of Internet Explorer whilst looged into BY Yahoo Mail:
Windows 7 Enterprise SP1 - IE 8.0.7601.17514 - Display is OK
XP Professional Version 2002 SP3 - IE 8.0.6001.18702CO - See attached for what it looks like, It has a similar appearnce to what it might look like in text mode. IMPORTANT - This worked fine up until around 27th June 2012, then the problem started. If you click on the Mail icon, to get your Inbox, again, it renders better, but doesn't work - I just get the waiting icon (circle)
Yes, the operating system platforms are different (XP is still supported by MS), and yes the IE version are only _slightly_ different, but this worked up until a week ago, so must assume that some change to the operating system might have caused this, e.g. an update.
Anyone else seen this?
Are BT aware of this, and if not what can they do about it.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
David

Thanks for this advice. This is the resulting error message, if anyone can interpret it please (have removed weblinks as they leads directly to my signed-in email).

When exiting Yahoo sideshow the program will not go back to the Yahoo mail and drops out the sideshow for future use unless I sign out of Firefox completly and re-enter. What needs to be done to correct this problem?,

Every time I use the sideshow feature of Yahoo Mail, it locks out the Yahoo Mail when I try to exit the sideshow feature and I have to sign completely sign out of Firefox to have the feature restored. Even using the refresh key, it removes this feature and causes it to act as though I am not authorized to view the feature. Is there something that I need to set?

I think the problem lays with Last.fm. I had the same exact problem as you. In your processes screen, end the task "lastfmhelper.exe" Last.fm still scrobbles. The tracks don't skip, although I notice there is still a bit of a lag in the first part of the song - but if you can deal with that, no skipping. I think you will have to end that task everytime you boot up your computer, or uninstall last.fm completely until they fix it; it is a bug in their software, as opposed to iTunes.

I have yahoo mail, since your newest upgrade, when I open an email with a picture in it. The picture does not display

If images are missing then check that you do not block images from some domains.
*Tap the Alt key or press F10 to show the Menu bar.
Check the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
Check "Tools > Page Info > Media" for blocked images
*Select the first image link and use the cursor Down key to scroll through the list.
*If an image in the list is grayed and "Block Images from..." has a checkmark then remove this checkmark to unblock images from this domain.
Make sure that you do not block (third-party) images, the permissions.default.image pref on the about:config page should be 1.
Make sure that you haven't enabled a High Contrast theme in the Windows/Mac Accessibility settings.
Make sure that you allow pages to choose their own colors.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Colors : [X] "Allow pages to choose their own colors, instead of my selections above"
Note that these settings affect background images.
See also:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Website_colors_are_wrong
There are extensions like Adblock Plus (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and security software (firewall, anti-virus) that can block images and other content.

In line images not displaying in yahoo mail

Greetings, I have searched through your faqs and have been in touch with Yahoo Mail support but they say the problem is browser related. With some of my emails the inline images that are also links do not appear - an image placeholder appears briefly but then vanishes. The same messages display fine in Gmail with Firefox, in Yahoo Mail with Chrome and also with the Yahoo Android App on my HTC so the problem is only with Yahoo mail and Firefox.

HI treblig1,
Please make sure that the page that you are trying to attach the attachment to is not on the block pop up list. This was a work around for a recent gmail issue that blocked the popup that manages what file to attach.
There are two ways to get there:
# Go to the about:permissions page and search for the yahoo url. Click on the pop up permissions and click allow.
# Go to the "3 bar" menu and click > Options/Preferences > Content > Exceptions...
If this is not the case please post back with more info.

Why "Bulk Mail" foder does not display number of unread messages unless I click the folder (Yahoo mail through IMAP)?

Yahoo mail account's "Spam" folder (as viewed through "Yahoo mail" web interface) is displayed in Thunderbird as "Bulk Mail" (IMAP). Looking at the account's foders in Thunderbird I see the number of unread messages in each folder. "Bulk Mail" appears always to be empty. If I click the "Bulk Mail" folder, then magically messages appear in message list, and the number of unread messages is displayed next to folder name, like in all other folders of this account.
Why I need to touch the "Bulk Mail" folder in order to see the number of messages in it?
Yahoo deletes messages from this folder at certain periods. I'm in danger of loosing messages unless I remember to touch all of my Yahoo account's Bulk Mail folders in Thunderbird.
How I can get "Bulk Mail" folder to show the number of unread messages like all other folders of the same account do?
Thunderbird 24.6.0, Windows 7 Enterprise (Sp1)
pekka

I don't use IMAP in Thunderbird, so I can't provide step-by-step instructions, however, other e-mail programs have settings for whether or not to synchronize each individual folder on a schedule or using push IMAP (vs when clicked). If Thunderbird has those settings, I would expect them to appear in the folder properties or account settings. Perhaps this will be helpful, but I don't know if you've already done some digging like this or not.
FYI, a quick search brought me to this page:
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/configuration-options-folders
One item listed in that page is this:
Configure IMAP folders, connections and namespaces
Menu location: Tools | Account Settings | <account name> | Server Settings | Advanced
Perhaps that would be a good place to start since it does mention IMAP folder connections, but folder properties still might be an easier place to peek first, just in case. For that, the site lists this:
Configure folder properties (IMAP folders only)
Menu location: Edit | Folder Properties | General Information
However, I think you could right-click on the "Bulk Mail" folder and hit properties in the pop-up menu.

HT3142 Display size is too large on yahoo mail

My display size is too large on yahoo mail page only (page I need and use most). How do I correct it, please?
Changing the display selections from system preferences is not working.

There may be a control within the application you are running Yahoo.
Which browser are you using online to access Yahoo?
In the View menu bar of the open application, there may be a choice
to change the size of the display content in the window itself, check.
Some of these use a keyboard command, should the setting go to
Full Screen, you'd need to know the default or escape combination
of keys to restore the application's window to a standard size. This
kind of inside-application setting is not reflected System Wide.
Since I don't know the browser, (as I have five, each is different)
I can't recommend a keyboard combination to re-size the open
application's view or window setting. They can be non-standard.
But that likely is where you'd have to change it back to normal.
PS: Snow Leopard is Mac OS X 10.6.8.
(Tiger is OS X 10.4.x)
Good luck!

Yahoo Mail not displaying all new e-mails on iPad

For the past two days, when viewing Yahoo Mail through Safari on the iPad, the number of new e-mails listed for the Inbox has not matched the actual number of new e-mails in the Inbox. For example, it might say "Inbox (11)", but there are only 9 new e-mails actually in the Inbox (and, yes, I've made sure to load all the messages for viewing). This problem only seems to occur when going through Safari on the iPad. When I check my mail on my computer, the number listed matches the actual number in the Inbox. It also displays the "missing" ones not showing up on the iPad. I'd have to research it a bit more, but my initial guess is that the iPad version is only showing the new e-mails found after the final read e-mail. For example, if new e-mails show up with timestamps that set them between mail that has already been read, then they aren't showing up in the Inbox, despite the fact that they are included in the number of new e-mails listed for the Inbox. Again, this problem has only occurred the past 2 days and only when using Yahoo Mail through Safari on the iPad.

I've tried the Mail app in the past, but that had its own quirks (not being able to delete everything in the Spam folder at once, not all Contacts syncing over). I don't have to worry about the pesky ads because I use Yahoo Mail Plus instead of the regular version. I'm sure it's just a glitch that showed up when something was updated, and it will probably be back to normal soon.
