Yahoo messenger not working on messages in Yosemite
As of today, I can no longer get Messages to sign in to my Yahoo Messenger account. It was working earlier today, but since about 10 AM EDT, after selecting "Available" from the "Offline" status for Yahoo, it says "Connecting" for a while, then changes to "Disconnected."
I have seen this behavior before, in recent months, but it was only intermittent and would usually reconnect on a retry. Now it won't connect at all.
I downloaded the latest Windows version of Yahoo Messenger into a VMWare VM on this Mac just to verify that my account is still working, and was able to sign in from there just fine. But it's more convenient to have all messaging in one place.
Is anyone else seeing this? Any idea what's wrong or how to fix it?
I'm on a MacBook Pro (late 2013 Retina 15-inch) on Yosemite 10.10.2 with all updates applied.
Oh but guess what - it just started working again! Must have been something else outside my control that was broken out on the Interwebs...

I just downloaded Mountain Lion and now yahoo messenger won't work. It crashes everytime. Also in Imessage, it doesn't show me when someoen else is typing. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix these two issues? Ideally I'd rather have my yahoo messenger back.
go into your system preferences on mountain lion....then go to security and privacy....go to the privacy section and UN-click Yahoo from being able to see your contacts....your yahoo IM will work after that...only thing is that you will only see your contacts yahoo address in your buddy list, not their first name ..small price to pay fr having my yahoo IM back in my book...hopefully they will fix this in the next update...let me know if this helped you....

My Isight is not working on skype and yahoo messenger but works on photobooth and ichat.
Ive reset my SMC and PMU but it still does not work. Only black screen appears on skype with a loading sign that takes so long. The light signal on the cam doesnt turn on as well which indicates that it is really not working.Regarding Skype, post in the Mac Skype forums on Skype's website. It's where all the Mac Skype users hang out.
Regarding Yahoo, contact its customer tech support department. -

Facebook Messenger not connecting in Message app i...
Facebook Messenger not connecting in Message app in Lumia 800.
A solution would be nice, or any app that shows live tile updates if we get a fb message .Not sure if there can be any updates as it is a part of the core OS. Have you checked that your network carrier settings are correct and that if you have Flight Mode on and usign it thru WiFi, that it works ok that way?

How do I get Yahoo messenger to work
How do I get yahoo messenger to work on new iMac as well as find the menu items for video or microphone chat?
thought there was an easy answer... I get it to show up and I can see my contacts. I can even turn on my cam. What I can't see is how to join a room or use some of the other traditional menu items.
