SOURCE: i cant acces my yahoo mail account and cant change password

to change it, you may have to ask a few questions on help desk to retrieve it.or you could cancel the account and set a new one up. you should be able to change your account pasword through customer service then create a new one using the old email address. use a good virus sweeper ie avast or spy hunter to run a check on your system DO NOT use the XP doctor that comes up when you use the internet that itself is a trogen. and i would not recomend any norton programms thy can upset your system big time.

SOURCE: My password yahoo account and

I assume you have already tried the the Yahoo sign-in wizard, which is used to help retrieve (or reset) passwords. See: https://edit.yahoo.com/forgot

If your password and secret questions yhave been changed. I would suggest going to the sign-in wizard, and select the option for "My account may have been compromised".

Additional help info available from Yahoo at:

SOURCE: I cannot login to my yahoo mail nor yahoo

Yahoo is currently updating their servers, has been going on all weekend. I have just logged in at 11:05 am EST and it seems to be working correctly again.
I was having problems with mail on Outlook, on the website, and on my phone. Maybe the update is complete (hopefully).

How do i change my yahoo password

When you sign up for a free Yahoo! account, you gain access to the extensive features of the Yahoo! community and receive a free email account.

As with any account, it is a wise idea to change your Yahoo! password a few times a year in order to ensure its security.

Knowing where to go in Yahoo! to change your password will allow you to do it quickly.

Sign into your Yahoo! email account.

Click on your Yahoo! name at the top of the webpage to access drop-down options.
Select the "Profile" option.

Your account page will open.
Place your cursor over "Account Info" in the toolbar.
Options will again drop down.

Click "Change Password."

Type in your current Yahoo! email password in the first text box.
Enter your new Yahoo! password in the lower two text boxes.

Click "Save."

Your Yahoo! password is now changed.

Yahoo email problem

I fear your account may have been hacked by someone you don't even know. Please try to change the password of your account as early as possible for your own safety and watch what happens.

Lost my password to yahoo messanger

Your Yahoo! Messenger password is usually the same as the password for your Yahoo! account.

(1) If you know your Yahoo! account ID and password, just enter that in Yahoo! Messenger. On the Messenger screen, clear the boxes for ID and password, then re-enter your Yahoo ID and password, then click "Sign on".

(2) If you don't know your Yahoo! account password, you will need to reset it.
Go to the Yahoo password page:
https://edit.yahoo.com/forgotroot/
and follow the prompts. Yahoo will send an email to reset your password.

After you have reset the password, then enter the new password in Yahoo! Messenger, and sign in.

Cant get into my yahoo says the id orpassswords invalid i thank someone changed it how do i chance it back

if you think someone has changed your password, immediately get a virus scanner on your computer, someone has installed (via download) a "key logger" which tracks all you keystrokes allowing the to see what your typing, this would include credit card numbers, passwords and anything else you type. As for your yahoo account, you can write to them, but in my experience, they are less than responsive to their customers needs. the easiet thing to do is to sign up with a new yahoo account with new name and etc. Its a pain I know, but this happens all the time to people. Just be carefull what you download and allow to run on your computer, these key loggers are nasty and hard to detect and get rid of. Good Luck

Yahoo messenger resets are attainable by the account owner. Get into the internet website of yahoo messenger with the features of loggin is a display button that has reset passwords feature functions. A click should allow for changing an old password for newer password in which instance would be emailed to the email account of your choice.
