Why can't I open links in Yahoo email classic?

In my Yahoo email suddenly my links in an email don't work - they are FaceBook links?

  • I've had email alerts for FaceBook for years with my Yahoo email - but in the last few days I can't click on the link - no hand - simply a cursor.

  • Answer:

    You can always right click & if in IE "copy shortcut" or Firefox "Copy link Location" or or you're using the new Y mail read on for a quick fix The ''New Improved'' (sic) Mail is Unstable & There are Several Solutions To go back to Y Classic Mail. At Least One of These will work either Permanently or Temporally to get You in Your Mail so you can Manage it for now. I know it's a lot of words but some folks are PC illiterate & I don't Know What Group You're in. Here are a number of solutions for you: First try this link http://mrd.mail.yahoo.com/switchclassic Or http://us.mg.mail.yahoo.com/neo/launch?ncrumb=qX6I7W1RLK7&.rand=1044985926&nmig=no Or a shortened version Below if the above doesn't work http://tinyurl.com/Switch-To-Classic Click on "No, thanks. Continue to Yahoo! Mail Classic" Note: As of May 31st, you can no longer switch back. Yahoo's removed the link to return to the classic version. If your previous version was the New Mail, then you MAY be stuck with & you can't get it back Permanently. BUT, If you have stalled from "upgrading" (like me) then the trick below will work. To get back to the Classic version you'll have to lower the resolution on your PC to the point where it won't support the Beta version. To do this Right click on a blank space on your desktop & choose "Properties". Select the "Settings" tab. Move the slider that says "Screen resolution" all the way to the left (or Below 1024 by 768 pixels) Click OK. You may have to restart your PC (depending on your settings) Note: I'm still running XP & am not sure if this works in Windows 7 - Some say it doesn't) After rebooting or logging into your Y mail account like normal while in this new low screen resolution you'll be asked to switch to the new mail. Do so & click OK or upgrade (don't worry). When you're in the new mail you'll brought to a page that tells you the resolution is to low. It'll give you a few choices. Choose the "last one" which will say something like 'go back to the previous version you were using'. Click that & you'll be brought to your old classic mail. Log out of Y mail. Now you can change your screen resolution like it was before. This should be permanent - not just one-time (or until Y mail fixes/forces this too upon us hopefully many months away) Temp Solutions: You can use these two links though it's only a temp fix & you'll have to use them every time to access the Classic version. http://us.mc598.mail.yahoo.com/mc/launch or http://us.mc598.mail.yahoo.com/mc/welcome If the links don't work & open up Y Classic Mail then copy/paste the address in a new window or tab & press enter. Or try this link & choose Classic: http://us.mg4.mail.yahoo.com/dc/troubleLoading Or http://info.mail.yahoo.com/newMailClassic/info **************************************… Hope this helps and be Sure to come back & give SOMEONE a best answer because some of these answers take a lot of time & work on our part.
