How to sign in as another user + Yahoo

I assume you wish to access email in a different Yahoo! Mail account. Yahoo! allows you to access only one account at a time. To sign in as a different user, you must first sign out from the account you are currently accessing.

To sign out from Yahoo! Mail, click on the "Sign out" link in the upper left corner of the web page:

12_31_2011_9_04_34_pm.gif

Then go to the Yahoo! Mail page (http://mail.yahoo.com), and sign in with the new user ID and password.

Hope that's helpful.

I cn`t log on to yahoo.com

  • What does "Keep me signed in" mean? If you check the "Keep me signed in" box, you can stay signed in to Yahoo! on this computer for up to 2 weeks or until you sign out. To protect your personal information when you access some Yahoo! services, we may ask you to enter your password again. The "Keep me signed in" checkbox applies to this computer only. If you're using a public computer, we recommend that you uncheck the checkbox. You can also modify the number of times you're asked for your password by clicking on My Account at the top of most Yahoo! pages once you sign in. If you do so, Yahoo! will ask you to verify your password more frequently, although your sign-in screen will still indicate every "two weeks". (More information on modifying your sign-in settings)
  • What is this image at the top of my sign-in box? It's a sign-in seal - a feature to help you protect your Yahoo! password against fraud. (Find out more about sign-in seals.)
  • Not seeing your sign-in seal? If you set up your sign-in seal but now no longer see it, you could be on a fraudulent site. Look carefully at your browser's address bar. A genuine Yahoo! sign-in page will always display https://login.yahoo.com just before the next forward slash. (Read more about identifying a real Yahoo! sign-in page.)
  • Concerned about password security? Yahoo! submits your ID and password using SSL, which provides a level of security when transmitting data. (More information on password security.)
  • What if I forgot my ID or password? Look up your ID and/or password after confirming some personal information. Remember to use your full Yahoo! ID (e.g. [email protected]) to sign in.
  • Having problems logging in? Did you forget to include your full Yahoo! ID? If so, please remember to use your full Yahoo! ID to sign in.

I cannot sign in into yahoo messenger,but i can sign in into my yahoo mail

First, go to you IE, Click on Tools, Click on Internet Options, Click on Connections, then check "Always Dial my Default Connection. Click Apply, Click OK.

When Yahoo detects that you've already signed into Yahoo Mail, it will disconnect you when you try to sign into messenger or vice versa - thus, the message that you are signed in to another computer.
To get rid of your problem simply disable chat in your mail account by clicking the smiley and following the prompts.
Yahoo remembers your settings until you change them.
Hitting the X on the Contacts page in Yahoo Messenger does Not Sign you out of Yahoo Messenger, it merely closes the contacts page. Always Click "Close & Sign Out" for your Y!M.

I hope this solution will act as an insurance upon soling this problem of yours

Hi!

When you are online with Yahoo Messenger and at the same time sign-in with your yahoo mail account, Your connection with Yahoo Messenger will be lost(and it will sign out automatically) when you tried to open your mail chat.

Or if your status is " Available " on the mail chat of your Yahoo Mail account. Once you sign in on this account, you will be signed out in your Yahoo Mesenger account unexpectedly.

So, here is what you need to do.

Sign in with your Yahoo Mail account. On the upper part of the page, beside your name, click sign out of chat. The message should appear "offline"
Now try signing in with your Yahoo Messenger account. Then after signing in, view the content of your yahoo account. It will not disconnect the connection of your YM.

Let me know if that solve your problem. Please come back and give me some ratings.

Thank You for using Fixya!
