  • Answer:

    You use an old shortcut to go on yahoo e-mail, and the address of this shortcut is not up to date with the new version of yahoo email. Use a search engine to go on yahoo e-mail and update the address of your shortcut

After a month of the same problem starting mid November 2013, I finally fixed this which was a problem on several but not all computers. I went into yahoo mail settings and clicked on Security and clicked on the option to always use email in "https" and suddenly after a month of misery, the attachment pop up window popped up with the attachments when trying to open them. Interestingly after going back to Security, the option disappears from Security after choosing it. Incidentally, hard to find but this is also an official yahoo answer from yahoo but I fixed it prior to finding that out. They acknowledged the problem.
