I am unable to attach a 4.8 Mg pps file to an e mail using yahoo

It is Explorer problem because I use both IE and Firefox...IE kept crashing the yahoo.mail. But Firefox opened yahoo mail with no problems

interesting!

clear cookies and temp files (internet cache) within tools or options in firefox and try again.

if not uninstalled and then reinstalled firefox and test.

Ill ask the obvious first, do you have Microsoft Powerpoint installed? If you dont, you can download a free PPS viewer. Just Google "PPS Viewer" , download and install it. If you do have PowerPoint, then try saving the pps file to your computer locally and try opening it? Please always post your questions with as much details as you can. What email client are you using? Gmail, Yahoo, Thunderbird, Outlook, Outlook Express, Windows Mail, etc. Its hard to answer questions with hardly any info. Thanks!

If this problem never happened before, you may try optimizing your Internet browser by clearing the Cookies, History and Internet Files. To do this, please follow the steps below:

* For Internet Explorer:
1. Run IE > Tools > Internet Options.
2. Locate the Browsing History portion and click the Delete button.
3. Delete the Cookies, Temporary Internet Files and History
4. Click on OK > close the IE.
5. Re-open IE > try accessing your Yahoo e-mail again.

* For Mozilla Firefox:
1. Run Firefox > Tools > Clear Recent History...
2. Click the drop-down arrow > select 'Everything'
3. Click on 'Clear Now' > close the Firefox.
4. Re-open Firefox > access your Yahoo mail.

Hope this helps you resolving the problem!

Try to clear your cache or cookies and then flush your dns by opening a command prompt and typing: ipconfig /flushdns

Chances are, your connection hardly communicate with yahoo's mail servers and vice versa.

Also, try to use a different browser. Like if you currently using Firefox, try opening yahoo mail wit IE, or vice versa.

Go to Start>Control Panel > Add or remove programs remove all the things related yahoo ( Yahoo toolbar, Yahoo mail advisor, Yahoo installer, Yahoo browser plus etc.) Try download and install then....If still same try download offline installer http://download.yimg.com/ycs/msg/dl/msgr10/us/b4/msgr10us.exe
if still you are having difficulty download old version like Yahoo messenger 8 or Yahoo messenger 7
I think it will help you..Further result please let us know... Thanks for being with Fixya...Good Luck

try deleting temporary files and cookies on your browser:

on IE go to "Tools\Internet Options"

for firefox just press "Ctrl+Shift+Del" buttons at the same time

This generally happens when you upgrade to IE8. Try this

1) Open Internet explorer
2) Click on tools/General
3) Delete cookies then delete files
4) click OK
5) Then log onto your email.
6) In the upper left side of your page you should see Yahoo Classic (small blue lettering) OR Click "Options" on the top right corner of the screen and you must get the option to switch back to classic
7) Click on it, wait and it should work

In case you are unable to follow step 6 in IE, try using any other browser, i.e. Firefox

Hi,
It looks as if you are using older version of IE.
Download IE 8 and see the improvement in speeds.

http://www.microsoft.com/windows/internet-explorer/default.aspx

Or if you still need a faster browser, download Opera web browser.

http://www.opera.com/

Right click on the file and go to open with then select the Powerpoint Viewer 2007 and check the box making it the default.
