Hi,
Make sure that you are not using Yahoo Messenger version 9 as there is a known bug about it. If you got the version 9 installed remove it from your PC & then install the latest version. Check you security software settings especially the Firewall. Some antivirus software could block the usage of messaging programs. Like for example Norton, check on the program controls of the Firewall.
Hope this help a bit. If you got any other questions regarding this issue please fell free to shoot me a message.
Thanks!
Uninstall and re-install the software for your webcam. Go to How do I re-install my webcam? for
instructions on how to re-install your webcam software.
Messenger "9" 1st version was in Beta (testing) form. The newest version is not, But it's not working well either. Stick to 8.1 until they work out the Bugs. Including people using 8.1 trying to message ones with 9 or reverse they are having compatibility problems; like text not showing,pictures not showing. It shuts down on Vista users , not allowing people to log in.Web cams do not always work. Many things do not work or are missing that YM 8.1 has. It Seems for Vista users it is so buggy Yahoo is giving up on it and are no longer trying to fix it.http://www.ymessengerblog.com/blog/2008/…
Use this method: Start,My PC, C drive, open Program files.Next open Yahoo file then Messenger file.Click on UNWISE to Uninstall messenger 9 completely. Do not just delete yahoo file as this can cause problems with other Yahoo programs. Your contacts list and messages are stored online and will be there when you return to 8.1 messenger. Another big problem is with the latest update for Flash Player Flash player 10 Does have conflicts,and 9's latest update 9.0.124.0 Can have conflicts with Yahoo(very rarely, if you are using it with no problems keep it) and is causing some Yahoo Messenger services to not load.Use the link below for a download of Flash player #9.0.115.0 It should work as it's the latest before 9.0.124.0 . You have to remove the present flash player,add/remove programs in control panel, then download the older version. http://www.soft32.com/download_500.html.…
When you have the Yahoo! Messenger 9 window open (with your friends and whatnot) go to Messenger, and then Yahoo! Chat. A sidebar will come up next to Yahoo! Chat with the options Join a room, create a room, and favorite rooms. From there you can choose which you want to do.
I installed the most recent version of Yahoo! Messenger 9 just now and that's how it's set up for me. :)
Hope that helped. Have a great evening and please don't forget to rate this solution.
Go Start,Control Panel, Add/remove Programs. Click on Messenger,click
remove. This should reinstate the older version. If not, Reboot and
download it here;
