How do I delete some email addresses from my contacts list?

When I compose an email, the names from my contact list don't come up.?

  • I used to compose and email and by typing just a few letters, I would be given options of email addresses to choose from but no longer. Please help me figure out why. I also cannot delete any contacts on my contact list!

  • Answer:

    Your account got compromised. First change your password. Account help.http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/acct/in%E2%80%A6 for just about anything to do with your account. Then run anti Virus and Anti Spyware. Should be fine then.

Many users of the new Regular mail have had this problem recently over the last few days. It's a very frustrating glitch. The new 'Regular Mail' still does not work well with some computers. (The version formerly called 'All-New has disappeared.) Yahoo wants everyone to switch to the newest version, so has disabled any links to change back. Even switching to Classic Mail by temporarily lowering the screen resolution until you are asked to switch, or temporarily disabling Javascript also only works for some users. The easiest way to switch back to Yahoo Classic is to use one of the following links each time you open your mail - save the Bookmark as a Favorite. http://mrd.mail.yahoo.com/switchclassic (might be a permanent change) http://us.mc598.mail.yahoo.com/mc/welcome http://us.mc598.mail.yahoo.com/mc/launch (This link is faster.) In the small print there should be a choice near the bottom to make the change permanent. If all else fails, try contacting Yahoo! Customer Service, but you will need to be persistent to talk to a human, and must 'insist' on switching versions, even if they sat at first that it cannot be done. USA (6am to 6 pm, Pacific Standard Time) 1-866-562-7219, 1-800-318-0631, Yahoo Personal Email: 1-866-492-4664 The change back to Classic can be done with a small (temporary) change. Either disable Javascript or lower the screen resolution. Log out of your account before trying these, then log in afterwards. Once you have switched back to Classic Mail, re-boot and change these settings back again. 1. For Internet Explorer, go to Tools > Internet Options > Security > Custom level. In the scripting section, disable active scripting. For Firefox and Chrome, go to Tools > Options > Content and un-check Enable JavaScript. This solution is not successful with all versions of Windows 7. 2. Lower the screen resolution one stage at a time in the Control Panel > Personalization > Display section. (Normally it is 1024 x 768 or higher).Once it is too low, when you open Mail you are asked to switch to Mail Classic > click Yes. There will be some waiting, flashing, and scrolling, but the screen shows up eventually.
