Yahoo messenger login

hi...
i've just bought my macbook about 2 months ago and i'm having trouble logging into yahoo messenger...i think i've only managed to log in once, and every time i try it says the servers are busy...i've tried logging in with my old ibook at the same network without any problems at the same time, so i'm pretty sure it's not the network. there aren't any problems with msn messenger. using the one on the internet doesn't give me any problems either.
i used firefox to download yahoo messenger, and i've tried uninstalling and reinstalling it a few times. i've also checked the firewall and it says allow all incoming connections.
it's taken me a while and it's getting REALLY frustrating...any suggestions?

Hey alijo - you reported that you got help from yahoo that successfully fixed
your problem, but in spite of the fact that several others report having the
same problem, you never shared the solution you got from yahoo. These support
forums are designed to allow users to help one another, so you really should
follow up by sharing the final solution with the other readers. Thanks and
good luck...

  • Can't login to yahoo messenger and e-buddy

    Dear teams,
    My Blackberry can not login into Yahoo Messenger starting yesterday. It's says "Invalid Yahoo! ID or Password".
    I absolutly sure the ID and the password is correct because I can login using the PC computer. But still it doesn't work on BB Handle.
    Also the e-buddy only says connecting / reconnecting but can not connected to the e-buddy server.
    Is it possible my account is 'error' in RIM/BB Server?
    It's has been more than 30 hours from my last login on Yahoo Messenger. Please help.
    Thank you

    It's happened also with my account.
    Already swapped with my wife's BB ... and the conclution is : the problem is in my account (in BB/RIM server). I can login using my wife's account in my BB, but I can not login with my account in my wife's BB.
    I also did change my yahoo password through PC, try to login to Yahoo mail using PC, YM via PC, and all works. Very strange problem
    I also not able to setup my Yahoo mail through BB. Same error "Invalid Yahoo ID or password" ...
    Very urgent (because I use my YM in BB almost anytime for business stuff). Need a good suggestion to solve this problem ...
    Thank you very much,

  • Display picture in messages totally  pixelated when seeing it with yahoo messenger for windows

    Hello,
    I'm using messages to chat with my yahoo messenger account  at work and yahoo messenger for windows at home.
    When I log into Yahoo with messages, my yahoo display picture is updated automatically with the one I have choose in messages.
    My problem is that this picture is totally pixelated when you see it on yahoo messenger for windows. It seems that Messages is changing its size.
    As the size in Yahoo messenger for windows is bigger it appears pixelated!
    If I choose no display picture in messages, the one I have choose with yahoo messenger for windows disappear when I'm logging with it.
    Is there a way that messages do not update the display picture each time I'm logging to Yahoo?
    I suppose that there is no solution to this problem but I wanted to be sure.
    Anyway thanks for your help.

    HI,
    Thanks for the Path.
    This does seem to show all the Recents from the Contacts App > My Card, the Login Pic and the Messages Buddy List pic.
    I think in Mountain Lion these were either separate items  or the .plist that is in the current place listed the app/location the pic was used.
    I have looked at the pictures in the folder (.png and thumbnail .tiffs) and the .plist and it does seem to be all the pics I have used in all three places over the last few months.
    The Yahoo account is logged in not through IMAgent that FaceTime and Messages use for other Accounts but from the IMServicePluginAgent.
    In Mountain Lion this used to list a Buddy Pic server as well as a straightforward login.
    Using Little Snitch I am not seeing that in Mavericks.
    Seems you may have to change your Pic on a web page for your Yahoo account.

  • Yahoo messenger does not connect after mountain lion upgrading

    Hey,
    Any experts there to solve my problem!
    After upgrading to mountaion lion, the yahoo messenger can not connect to the internet, all contacts are not appearing automatically in email adress box, all editing tolls gone!!
    Thanks in advance.

    When I opened Yahoo Messenger for the first time, it asked to use my Contacts. I said no. It took about 3 minutes to finally connect to the internet and none of the names I typed appeared in the list, just their Yahoo IDs. I then went into Security and Privacy (System Prefs) and allowed it access to my contacts and the next time I logged in, the friends list looked exactly like it should. It didn't reduce the login time, however. It still takes about 3 minutes. 
    I hope this helps some.

  • MSN & Yahoo messenger via S160

    Hello,
    Some of our users are complaining that MSN & Yahoo messenger are not working well via the S160.
    Most of the time they can connect, but sometimes not.
    They then do a connection check via MSN, and then they can login again.
    Also the connection gets interrupted every now and then, and then they need to login again.
    Via direct access everything goes well, so I it looks like the Ironports don't like this programs.
    As MSN & Yahoo messenger are used a lot in the world, I was wondering if somebody else has seen this before.
    Hopefully someone has a solution for me, so I can fix this issue.
    Thanks in advance!
    Best regards,
    Danny

    We have seen the same issues on our S370s with AOL IM and Cisco Webex Connect (rebranded AOL IM).  Users have various levels of success logging off and back on, but then it will quit working for a while.  Sometimes when users resave their network proxy connectivity settings (without changing any items), it starts working again.

    Hi,
    I have been trying to login in on software like Euddy and facebook chat from internet mobile but I am unable to log in but its logs in via wifi. First i thought there might be a problem from the service provider but when i tried my sim in another mobile it was able to log into Ebuddy n other IM softwares n when tried to log in on C6-00 with a diffrent sim the problem was still there.Which concludes that there is a problem in the mobile itself. and not in the sim or the service which is provided by the service provider.
    Have any of you faced the same p

  • Yahoo messenger problems.

    Is anyone having problems connecting to Yahoo Messenger lately?  I keep getting an error that says "Can't connect to server" I've made sure about the password. and I can login on my computer... But not on my BlackBerry 9650.. I have even tried multiple times uninstalling and reinstalling, and resetting the privileges.. This started about 2 days ago...

    Hi,
    I was reading some of the forums over at Crackberry.com and saw a few other user with the same problem.  I doubt it is an issue with your device, since it is happening to others, probably just a server problem.  The only thing to do at this point is just wait to see if the error is resolved.

  • Yahoo Messenger previous version

    Anyone have the v2.5.85?
    This is related to the Yahoo messenger username/password error. I have 2 friends who are on v2.5.85 and they can both still login. I have the v2.5.108 so I thought the problem is with this version (I already tried reinstalling the app, change password, and nothing works).
    Hope someone could help. It's been a month already and seems that they have no intention of fixing this version anytime soon.

    Here is 2.5.94, if you want to see if it works.

  • Yahoo Messenger (Sprint Pre): No account button! only one Y! at a time?

    Hi,
    I have a Sprint Pre, and I have a Yahoo IM account set up in my Messaging application. Works great, tho sometimes it does take a long time to sign in or needs me to sign out then try signing back in for it to succeed in signing in.
    When I go to Accounts and Preferences, and go to the Add Account menu, I only see two buttons, one for adding a google account and one for adding an AIM account.
    I'm just checking: should I see an option to add a Yahoo IM account also? or does the fact that I already have one set up mean that I can't add another one, and the button not being there is a reflection of that?
    I'm a little nervous in case I ever had to delete the Yahoo IM account or if I ever have to re-setup the account. If I do, will that button be there again?

    Yahoo Messenger isn't natively supported on the Palm Pre/Pixi, and all signs point to it not ever happening. This is a known issue and has befuddled Palm users since the device came out. There is yet to be any work-arounds that I'm aware of.
    When you say "messaging application", what app are you using specifically?

  • Web Cam does not work for yahoo messenger

    Hi,
    I down loaded a s/w MacCleanse, it kinda deleted a lot of files from my mac book air after which the web cam stopped working on yahoo messenger. I checked Ichat the cam works perfectly but does'nt with messenger. Does any one have a clue on how to fix this..

    from my experience, attempting to use two programs that allow the use of the camera will render it unusable on the second program attempting to use it. So, if you started iChat first, then forgot to quit the program, and are now trying to use Yahoo Messenger, then you must quit iChat first and it should work.
    Not unless your cam is really broken?

  • In 10.6, I could remove old YM users from my archive. In 10.7 and 10.8 I cannot find a YM user log. How do I remove yahoo messenger users from my archive?

    In OS 10.6, I could locate the log for my yahoo messenger in the Library under Application Support/Logs/_________________ and delete messages AND users from my archive. With OS 10.7 and OS 10.8, I am only able to delete conversations one at a time and unable to delete old users at all.  I am also unable to find out where new conversations are stored. Can anyone help?  Thanks.

    It is likely they're still stored in the same location.  However, in Lion and above, Apple has hidden the Library folder by default.
    To find it, hold down the option key and select the "Go" menu item, and Library will appear as an option in that list.  You can then select it and from there navigate to Application Support/Logs/XXX to delete stuff.

  • After I downloaded the new version of Adobe Flash Player 11.3.300.262, I can't seem to play games with my friends on Yahoo Messenger.

    It could be a coincidence but when I upgraded to the latest version of Adobe Flash Player 11.3.300.262 I can't seem to play any games on Yahoo Messenger with my friends. I know when I updated for some reason I had to try 3 times before it took it. It shows it's updated. I'm wondering if I have to un-install and re-install it. Also, I never use Internet Explorer 8 but when I went in there to check I found a plug in check link there and it showed over there that Adobe Flash Player needed updating but it was an older version and not the one Foxfire had me update too. Now I'm really confused if this is causing a problem. I have never had to check Internet Explorer for plug ins before. Have always just updated in Foxfire since that's what I use. The Adobe Flash Player seems to play videos okay so not really sure if that's the issue or not. My Java plug-ins have been fine and have been updated awhile ago, so I know it's not that. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

    Well, after hours of trying to figure it out I gave up and un-installed and re-installed that last verion of Adobe Flash Player and now it seems I can play games again in Messenger. Everything else had been fine just that. I can only figure it was because it was having a hard time updating the first time and took me 3 tries. So even though it said it was installed, apparently it wasn't done correctly.
    Though when I couldn't figure out what was wrong at first I looked and checked to see all the things were enabled that were supposed to be and they were.
    I even tried to go to the Adobe site and download the last version I had and couldn't find it. Kept coming up with the new version. Others said if you download a particular older version it may not have all the security features in it.
    This really gets to be a bit much, especially when you're by yourself and have only a smattering of knowledge of technical things.
    Thanks fore responding to my question.
