Yahoo Messenger Not Working

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....
Aloha,
Leon

  • 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...

  • My Isight is not working on skype and yahoo messenger but works on photobooth and ichat

    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.

  • 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.

  • After i use 4.3.3 for iphone 4. the notification for facebook and yahoo do not work. what is wrong? anyone can help?

    after i use 4.3.3 for iphone 4. the notification for facebook and yahoo do not work. what is wrong? anyone can help?

    I am also on my forth hard drive on the same model.
    When I unpacked the computer, the hard drive did not include OS X either. Actually, it was completely blank. Did not even have a partition table! I have also had random problems with the machine not charging.
    I have replaced the drive myself with an SSD after figuring the Apple Certified technicians were incompetent. Now even the SSD is starting to fail
    I have bought an HP laptop and setup Ubuntu on it. Hope it turns out better than my previous four various Mac models. All have had various repeating hardware issues that Apple Certified technicians have been unable or unwilling to correct.

  • Yahoo email not working

    hi.
    My Yahoo email account has stopped working on my iPad. I have deleted the account and reinstalled it but still no joy. My email works fine on my Mac and iPhone ok.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks.

    Usually uninstalling and readding the info takes care of it.
    It could just be a glitch with yahoo. Several people have short term issues with their yahoo mail not working.
    are you trying to access it on the same wifi as usual? I had an issue where my yahoo will not work if i try to access it on various wifi hotspots and it has to do with the protocols on the access point.
    I'd give it a few hours and see if it resolves itself.

  • Yahoo emails not working in iphone 5

    Hi, I have just changed to Iphone 5 and I noticed that my yahoo emails are not working. I cannot save the yahoo password when I set up my yahoo email accounts in Iphone 5.
    The error message says "Yahoo Server unvailable". Please try again later.
    I tried to delete the yahoo account and add in again but still not working.
    Please advise urgently.

    It's not your phone... Yahoo is having issues right now with many of their users.  I'm getting the same errors logging in from my PC.

  • Yahoo is not working properly after reset also

    yahoo mail is not working and open properly in firefox i had see a solution for this that is reset the fire fox but after done also that this is not working

    Hello,
    Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
    Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
    To clear cache and cookies do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
    #Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
    #Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
    #From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
    #Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
    Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

  • SMS in YAHOO mail not working in Firefox

    In the drop down box for Yahoo Mail, Compose Message, if I click on SMS, it just turns a little blue and then sits there. Nothing happens. No SMS box, nothing. I was able to freely send and receive SMS messages up until about 3 days ago. It will not work in Mozilla Firefox, no matter what I do. If I go to Internet Explorer, it DOES work. I have the 9.0.1 Firefox version, which I updated to about 2 weeks ago.

    Unless Yahoo changed something, which certainly is possible, the suggested approach is the usual:
    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
    (2) Remove your Yahoo cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    In the dialog that opens, you can remove your Yahoo cookies without affecting other sites.
    Then try reloading the page and logging back in. Any improvement?
    To rule out extensions as a possible culprit, could you try the site in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to bypass interference by extensions (and some custom settings). More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
    You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either
    * "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    * Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    ''Flash and other plugins still run in Safe Mode''
    After Firefox closes, a small dialog should display. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset)
    Any difference?
    Some users have reported that older bookmarks or home pages do not redirect to the latest Yahoo server correctly. As a workaround, try accessing mail through the home page (www.yahoo.com or att.yahoo.com or whichever one it happens to be).

  • Yahoo Mail not working in the Mail App

    I have an issue with my mail app on my Mac.  I use my Yahoo email account with it and for some reason now it wont work.  When I go in to the preferenc on Mail and chack the settings of my email Yahoo account, it says that the account is offline. I have removed the account and re-added it again and it's still doing it.  It also does it with my Gmail account as I tried that thinking it may be an issue with my Yahoo details.
    The web versions of both email accounts are working all OK.
    I have spoke to Apple Care who were unable to offer me help with this issue.
    I am trying to find out how to contact Yahoo to ask them, but as yet am finding it hard to do so.
    I am running Mavericks 10.9.2 and Mail 7.2.
    Any advice, would be great.
    Thanks...

    Are you getting a server error?   Try fixing the outgoing and incoming server.  I have had that problem before. 
    I have the same problem right now.  The past solutions are not working. 
    If you find something, let me know.

  • Yahoo email not working with 8.1.1

    I upgraded to iOS 8.1.1 this morning on my iPhone 6 and iPad Air 2.  Since then neither has been able to get any new mail from Yahoo.  Is there a problem with this upgrade and Yahoo email?  I've received lots of mail today, just not on my iPhone/iPad.
    I've also got to say I've had more issues with my iPhone 6 and iOS 8 than I ever had with my iPhone 5 and the various versions of iOS it had.  Probably the most annoying complaint is that I see 3G A LOT more than I did with my 5, and I'm in Verizon LTE coverage areas most of the time.  For a bigger phone, it either has a smaller antenna - or a not very good one.

    Hey, i had the same problem, have you tried with this settings ?
    Incoming Mail (POP3) Server: pop.mail.yahoo.com (port 995 SSL)
    Outgoing (SMTP) Server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com (port 465 SSL)
    Account Name/Login Name: Your Yahoo! Mail name in lowercase (your address without the "@yahoo.com"). ( in this case i put with @yahoo.com)
    it worked for my iPhone
    Hope it help
    Bye.
