    Hi shiela1953, your difficulty really depends on where you are running into your problem and what the source of the problem is. It could be a problem with the website itself, your browser settings, or a missing step in your login process. A little more detail (such as what operating system you are using and what you have determined so far as far as knowing you are connected to your wifi router. Most computers running windows have a small icon in the lower right corner that shows the state of your internet connection. This will usually tell you if you have internet access or not. If you let me know what operating system you are running and on what computer system you are running it on I can be of more help. Please let me know.

The problem could be one of two issues.
1. The DNS setting is incorrect on your WiFi Router or device you are connecting with.
To change this I suggest you contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP) and let them talk you through the steps.
2. the Firewall on you WiFi Router is on and blocking access. Log on to the router with admin, and switch the firewall off.

SOURCE: yahoo mail

Hi,

I'm not trying to give out quick copy and paste answers, but so many of you have Yahoo mail issues that I find that my responses have been repetive but accurate. Try calling Yahoo customer care:

SOURCE: yahoo site webpage and email loading problem

i think your javascript support is turned of from your browser. if you use Internet Explorer,


Go to "View -> Internet Options -> Security tab
Select "Custom" and click on the "Settings..." button
To enable: make sure "Enable" is selected under "Active scripting"
To disable: make sure "Disable" is selected under "Active scripting"

For FireFox
Go to "Tools" -> "Options"
Go to "Content" tab and "Enable JavaScript"

For Opera
Go to "Tools" -> "Preferences"
Go to "Advanced" tab -> "Content" and "Enable JavaScript"

Sharp smart tv will not completely load facebook any more

Check your internet connection. Even disconnect from your wifi and re-connect and see if that helps.
Are other apps working fine, or acting like that one?

Wont connect to internet even though the wifi says it is connected

It could be because of the amount of devices that are connected to your wifi. Too many devices could put a lot of weight on your bandwith causing the wifi itsself to become slower. Disconnect any devices using wifi in your home that dont need to be on every day and try reseting your modem or router. You could also use a usb cord to get a more direct connection or you might have to upgrade to a faster wifi company. If the problem still continues take your device back and get it fixed, call the number in the troubleshooting guide, or visit the nextbook website and make sure you have your device registered.

Yahoo mail error 999

I have seen this happen when a router stores a "CACHED" address for a website. The only solution is to power off the router (reboot wont always resolve).

Other things to check:
- Make sure the Comcast and Buffalo routers are not using the same subnet.
- Try to use an alternate DNS on the Buffalo, 8.8.8.8 is a good one (its googles DNS)

I cannot signout my yahoo mail and my facebook.i cant log in my yahoo mail and facebook because the sign out wont function

I think the internet connection is very slow or down and there is no way you can access internet. Try to use a different provider or location and see what exactly happens.
