Why doesn't yahoo mail not work sometimes?

Yahoo mail doesnt work anymore!! Hee-eelp?

  • !!My computer had some kind of prob, it still connects to the internet and Yahoo, and gets to this 'answers' page with no problems, recognizing my account, BUT it is now completely impossible to get the mail page to *operate*. I cant get the inbox or any of the other files to open at all and cant compose a new mail. Gmail works perfectly, but Yahoo mail is the one I use most. There are other problems that seem connected with the same event of Yahoo mail page freezing. I cannot get any of youtubes vids to open *via the you tube search box*, only by entering a particular you tube vid in Google, If I enter the vid by name in google there is no problem at all. Likewise I cannot access my account in other sites, like fine art america. Clicking on the access buttons, no longer works. This does not apply to all sites, only some of them. I need to get to my mail again but the Yahoo mail page wont operate. Any advice or information anyone? Thank you for thinking about it. Could it be just my computer that is screwing up? Im a long way away from any other computer so have no way to test that idea at present. Thank you for reading!.

  • Answer:

    Do this to get back to Classic (which is the ONLY older version you can get back to)----it's quick and easy. Yahoo has "hidden" this link (below) in the middle of one of their "useless" pages---and it has been reported to be a permanent fix---and even stops future "prompts to upgrade" It's different than some of the other links, that have been given, which are only temporary. Click this link: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/ymail/context/migrationv2.html THEN---When the page opens---scroll down about midway until you see this---"What if I don’t want to upgrade to the newest version of Yahoo! Mail"?----IF you do not want to upgrade, please "click here" to use Yahoo! Mail Classic. ("click here" is a blue link). Then--!wham!--before you can blink an eye, you're back in Classic.

I'm also having problems with the new yahoo mail - trouble is, I can't find out how to return to classic. The system freezes and I get IE error messages about high storage usage. I have another account, which for some strange reason is still on the old version - no problems with this whatsoever. So, if you would share what you did to revert to Classic, I'd be very grateful.

Maybe this can help you, I use Internet Explorer and could not find a solution to switch back to Classic Mail permanently after 2 days of pulling my hair out lots of problems! I have not found links work permanently, I went to CONTACT YAHOO CUSTOMER CARE, then clicked on LIVE CHAT, told them my old computer can not handle it, and they switched me back 5 to10 min. total, no problem, and they do not prompt me to switch anymore! You can also call Yahoo USA, but you will wait forever! 1-866-562-7219. Don’t forget to vote for best answer. Anyway Good Luck!
