Yahoo mail new emails freeze with v13.0.1

Since yesterdays (6/20/12) Firefox update to v 13.0.1 I haven't been able to write a new email using Yahoo mail. Symptoms are:
-The autocomplete feature for addresses doesn't work
-It takes a long time ~ 3 minutes with the message "loading attachment updater" for the applet that attaches files to emails to load.
- And then Firefox freezes and I have to use the Apple "force quit" feature to exit Firefox.
Yahoo mails works fine if I use Safari.

Hi,
Please check if this happens in a [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Managing-profiles new profile].

I have the same problem, but I found a way around it. Before opening mail.yahoo.com in a tab, to to Tools -> Options. Under the Privacy tab, click the "Exceptions" button. Type in "login.yahoo.com" and click the "Allow" or "Allow for session" button. Do the same for "login.mail.yahoo.com". It's not a fix, but it will get you back into your mail!

You have now exceeded your iCloud storage, including an additional amount provided to allow you to continue receiving email. As a result, you will not be able to send or receive new email messages with your iCloud email address until you free up storage space or buy more storage. I have 20GB remaining. WHat is the issue here?

Today I received the same message but have 4.6gb available from a total of 5.0gb. I also received the same message when i first set up my icloud account and icloud was virtually empty. Unfortunately the only way i can see to contact apple is to pay for a telephone call. If anyone knows what is going on i would appreciate knowing.

Downloaded Firefox 4.0, get server error 404 & can't access Yahoo mail. It opens with Explorer & on desktop with Mozilla 3

Downloaded Firefox 4.0, to Dell Lat D630 on 4/9/11
Get server error 404 & can't access Yahoo mail.
It opens with Explorer & on networked desktop with Mozilla 3.6
tried all fixes suggested by Support @ Customer Service
No resolution to the access problem today 4/21/11. Do I reinstall 3.6 & delete 4.0? I understand this access problem is common to 4.0 users.

I did some additional testing through Proxy 4. All web sites and web pages including secure sites that I tried accessing over the past couple of days all appear to work fine with the exception of the forementioned sites. Access to these specific web pages (which I cannot currently access) are part of our day-to-day business requirements, and therefore will prevent me from using Proxy version 4.0 as our production proxy unless I can figure out why these web pages won't load, and how to fix the problem.
As an experiment, I tried to access these web pages through Proxy 4 with Mozilla FireFox and Netscape 7. None of these web browsers (including Internet Explorer) will bring up these web pages when going through Proxy 4. But bypassing the proxy or going through our v3.6 proxy works fine for these web pages everytime, and with all browsers. This leads me to believe that this web page access problem is not a browser specific problem, but something in Proxy 4 isn't processing the request to display the page properly.
As a reference, the web site in question is http://www.sunlife.ca. On the left hand side of the page go to "Sign In" then "Plan Members". Thats where the request hangs through Proxy 4 no matter which browser I use, including Netscape... but works perfectly fine with Proxy v3.6.
Can someone who is running a version 4 Proxy also please try to access the SunLife Members login page and see if it works or fails for you?
Thanks

When I open a slde show in New Yahoo Mail I can't get back to Yahoo. When I click on the "back to Yahoo" button, the screen freezes with a gray cast over it and I have to use the back button and forward button to get back to my inbox.

This problem started immediately after I upgraded to Firefox 9.0.1
If I open my inbox in my New Yahoo Mail, then open an email with attachments and then open the attachments to "view as a slide show"....I can't close the slide show and return to the email by clicking on the "return to Yahoo" button. If you click on it, it returns to the first pic shown, and if you click on it again, the pics disappear and a gray haze appears over most of the screen but none of the features under the gray screen work. I have found that if I hit the back page and then forward page buttons, I can get back to my inbox eventually, but this is a terrible "pain in the ass"!

Re: Email Password - Verizon Yahoo Mail ( new version)

I can't change the password in any Verizon email accounts I have. I never changed passwords in past
3 years. I am using the new version of Verizon Yahoo Mail. When I select the Account option within
Verizon Yahoo Mail, it takes me to the Verizon Member Center, and wants to change the Master Account
password for all my Verizon Services.
Are there any known problems with chanqing email account passwords in the new version of
Verizon Yahoo Mail ?
Can I change back to an older version of Verizon Yahoo Mail ?
The Yahoo Help System says I can't chnsage back to a previous version of Yahoo Mail, but I wonder
if that is just for Yahoo Email and not Verizon Yahoo Mail.

There have not been any troubles that I have heard of. It could be a browser problem. Try either using a different browser or running your Internet Explorer in compatibility mode. Please go into Internet Explorers "Tools" menu and click to turn on "compatibility view". It should allow you to sort after doing that. If you do not wish to enable compatibility view every time you want to sort, Go into compatibility view settings and add the site www.verizon.com to the list.

When I click on a contact in Yahoo mail to email them, I get a box with the message "Something unexpected just happened...." and the screen locks up.

This happens with Firefox 11.0, Yahoo! edition 1.9 on Mac OS/X 10.6. Also the "To" line in the Yahoo mail send screen no longer auto-fills.

There have been various issues with Yahoo based email and the Flash plugin. Your Flash plugin is pretty old. You should go to http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/ and update Flash and any others that are outdated and then see if the problem still happens.

New Yahoo mail reply/forward works with Explorer but not Firefox

Recently switched my Yahoo mail account to New Yahoo Mail. New Yahoo worked fine with Firefox until Firefox update. Now can see my mail but can't reply or forward. As suggested by Yahoo, upgraded both Flash Player & Java Script & also disabled Firefox plugins but no luck. After Flash/Java upgrades, New Yahoo worked with Explorer.

What is the best way to transfer my Yahoo mail account email, email folders and contacts to Mac Mail?

A new version of Yahoo Mail has unexpectedly been dumped on long time users a few days ago, leaving many of us with functions that no longer work and are unstable. There was no announcement of a Beta or a possibility of retaining the old Yahoo Mail. It was like "Here it is, like it or not. We don't care."
My son said "Why don't you use another email client?". I thought of Mac Mail immediately. I have found a lot of instructions as to how to move my Yahoo mail components, and they sound pretty easy, but what I haven't found is what happens to my Inbox email, my archived email and my contacts. Do I have to move all those components to Mac Mail manually, and if so, will they now reside on my hard drive? Maybe I'm getting in over my head here. Some of the instructions say all I need is just my Full Name, Email address and Password. I guess I'm a cynic. It just sounds too good to be true. What happens to the stuff that was on Yahoo?
I have a couple of other reputable email accounts, but I would have to go through all my friends and businesses and inform them of the changed email addy.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I've never bothered w/Yahoo Mail latest upgrades or updates.
You can switch back to the old version of Yahoo Mail by going into your Yahoo Preferences and/or check the top right hand corner of its website.

In att yahoo mail my left column with the inbox ,etc extends the width of page and I can't bring it back to the left.

in the new version of att yahoo mail that I have been using for weeks for some reason the left column which shows inbox etc extends the width of a page and I am not able to see the emails. I cannot pull the column back to the left. If I switch to ATT yahoo classic it is fine, but not in the newer ATT yahoo mail.

How can I get to Yahoo Mail from email links on Craigslist?

I have looked through the discussions, but I am not finding anything specific to my problem. I am not using Apple Mail at all. I am using a Yahoo email account only. When I am visiting a web site and I click on a link to email someone from that site, Mail always automatically opens. I have to copy the email address, launch Safari, access my Yahoo Mail, compose a new email, and paste in that address in order to send the email from Yahoo. It's a pain.
My question is this: How can I configure my Mac to NOT automatically open Mail but rather to automatically open Yahoo as the client from which to send an email?
The best example of when I'd need to do is when surfing Craigslist. When I see an ad I want to reply to, I click the seller's Craigslist-generated email link. I want THAT link to take me to Yahoo, not Apple Mail.
Any ideas or work-arounds that will enable that to happen?

There may be an solution but I don't think it will be simple and I don't know what it is.
One problem is when you say, "open Yahoo as the client." Yahoo isn't a client or application as such, it is just a web page. When you click on a "mailto" link it tells the browser to open your mail application, and Yahoo isn't an application.
The web page in [this link|http://www.tuaw.com/2006/11/07/tuaw-tip-change-your-default-browser-or-def ault-mail-client-wit> discusses some of the issues you are having. People were complaining that the only way to change your mail preferences was to actually set up an account using OSX's Mail application which was the one you didn't want to use anyway. However, the best you could maybe do using the utilities mentioned on the page is to tell your computer to set Safari as your mail application; I don't know how to get it to then go to the Yahoo website as part of the package. Maybe some kind of advanced scripting?
Edit: It looks like Yahoo also has a way of connecting directly to it using a mail application if you pay for the premium service.

Yahoo mail no longer working with IPad

My ipad is no longer keeping copies of the yahoo emails I leave in my Inbox. It's only downloading New emails and once those have been opened they are no longer accessible. The other mail accounts that I have set up on IPad still work find. Any ideas?

Have you looked at the advanced setting for you Yahoo mail account. There you can select when you want read emails to be deleted. Options vary from Never to one day. Maybe it changed somehow
