How do I change the name under my picture?

How to change display name on Yahoo? (Picture)?

  • Here is the picture: http://pages.suddenlink.net/yakkety/yahoopage.jpg Picture explains it better. My friend used my Yahoo account for some emails about six months ago. She wanted the emails to be from her and not so she changed the name on the account to hers, but now I want my name back on it. I logged into myaccount page, signed in with password and change the registered name (about a week ago) to my name but it still reads her name. Does anyone know, or do you know where I can email Yahoo and ask them?

  • Answer:

    You've already changed the name on your account--which is good---but that won't change the name on the outgoing mail. IF that's what you're asking for, do this---go to your mail page and click on "options". Then scroll down to and click on "general preferences". Change the "from" line name, showing here, back to your name---or whatever you want---and then click "save" at bottom of page. IF you want to change the "Hi Lisa"--to "Hi Kim"--try this. Go back to your account page and scroll down to --Address/Contact info--and click edit. The name entered into the first name box, is the name that appears as a welcome. Highlight current name and then type the new name and click "finished"----then click finished again on the main page. You may have to refresh, before it shows the change. Sorry, if I've completely misunderstood your question.

You have to change your name in your account profile,then click 'My Account' link at the top-middle of Yahoo!Answers page in blue texts enter your password click 'SIGN IN' Click 'Create/Edit Profile' under public information heading click 'Edit' beside your ID Click 'Edit Profile Information' now you enter your profile name or other info as you like click "Save Changes" click "Save and Close" For Change of Picture: After you open up your 360 page, click on the “My Page” link near the top of the page. On the left side of that page you will see a link that says “Edit Personal Photos”, click on that. You will see 4 boxes to upload photos or pics. If you are going to want to use your Yahoo! Avatar on your 360 page sometimes, in the 1st box click on the “add your Yahoo! Avatar” link. It will automatically add your Yahoo! Avatar if you had made one already. Otherwise, go ahead and click on the browse button find the pic you have stored on your computer, click open, and then click on the save button at the bottom of the page. It will automatically save the 1st box as your primary pic when you upload. If you wish to display a pic from the other boxes click on the circle in that box that says “Set as primary” and save again. When you return to your "Edit profile" page here on Yahoo! Answers you should see the avatar you uploaded to 360 and click the circle next to that and save the changes. (If you have kept your Edit Profile page open all this time, refresh it so it will display the changes you made) *Note: Occasionally there is a glitch between 360 and Y!A where your 360 pic will not show. When that happens, I just switch to my Yahoo! Avatar. Until they straighten it out again. I hope this helps.
