Why can´t I download attachments like before?

Why can't I download attachments ?

  • I have several attachments awaiting to be downloaded but the download screen comes up but no attachments arrive.

  • Answer:

    You don't mention how big the attachments are and how slow your internet connection is. With dialup or a slow network a 1-2mb file may take an hour and might fail anyway. If you have good broadband and this happens, there might be a local server having trouble, and that would be fixed in time.

Try these options 1. Contact your provider and ask them 2. Make sure you have the proper downloads to view attachments IE: Media Player 11...adobe flash player...java...etc You can go to download.com and microsoft.com for all of them 3. Go to MY PHOTOS or MY ATTACHMENTS on your email page and see if they are in there. Many times...i dont know why...they will be in there when you cant view/download from the original email. 4. go to help.yahoo.com...good site. 5. email ... [email protected] and ask them good luck

Yahoo is still having some problems at the moment. Suggested cures range from Update Adobe Flash Player and Java script to clear IE7 cache, cookies, and browsing history. Different things seem to work for different people. It's causing attachments to not show, 999 errors where it won't let you do a particular action and some people cannot send receive delete or move mail. It's not just Vista either it's happening to some of us on XP. If all else fails go back to classic mail via this link. http://us.mg1.mail.yahoo.com/dc/optout?script=no click yes when asked do you want to opt out. Hope this helps.
