If you have multiple yahoo ID's and wants to login with more than one yahoo ID at the same time then don't worry, you can login with more than one yahoo ID at the same time using this tip. There is no need to install any other yahoo multi messenger version, you can easily covert your normal yahoo messenger into multi messenger and enjoy your many ID's at the same time.  

Follow the given steps to change the yahoo messenger registry value:

i)Click Start button and type regedit in Run option then press  Enter:
  Here locate the location to:

ii) HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Yahoo/Pager/Test

iii) Here in right side panel, right click to create a new Dword value with name Plural and give value 1

iv) Now close the registry editor and restart your computer after any changes to go into effect.

v) For signing in with new YAHOO ID open another messenger(multiple)v open as many messengers    you need.

vi) If you want to disable the multiple messenger option then again open registry editor and change         Plural value 1 to 0.


Thanking you

Forgotten password

You should change your Yahoo! Messenger password for security purposes. Pick a password that only you can remember, but one that's unique so that no one else figures it out.

Instructions

1.Click on the Yahoo! Messenger icon found on your computer desktop, or enter the program from the Yahoo! home page. Log in to Yahoo! Messenger with your user ID and current password. Click the "Yahoo! Messenger" link when the Yahoo! Messenger window opens.

2.Go to "My Account Info." This will take you to the Yahoo! Messenger account information page.

3.Find the link that reads "Change Password." Type your old password into the first field, then type a different password into the new password field.

4.Enter your new Yahoo! Messenger password into the next form field to confirm it. Save the new password into your Yahoo! Messenger account.

5.Log out of Yahoo! Messenger, then log in again. Test your account by entering your user ID and new password.

Hello ! My name is Cristi and i have a problem with my yahoo ID and e-mail account. From almoust 3 months...

First, try signing in with your Yahoo! ID here: https://imo.im/

You should be able to log in there. To fix error 81003002, you will need to do a complete removal and reinstallation of Yahoo! Messenger. I will give you 2 of the best ways to go about this:

The first way is to use Revo Uninstaller. (Recommended, requires a program installation)
( found here: http://www.revouninstaller.com/start_freeware_download.html )
You can use Revo to uninstall Yahoo! Messenger, making sure that you do at least a moderate level scan of your system using Revo. Delete everything that Revo asks you to. This will make sure that all files and keys related to Yahoo! Messenger are also erased from the system.

The second way to uninstall is to do it manually. (NOT Recommended, no installations)
Open your start menu, then click Control Panel. Navigate to "Add/Remove Programs". Find Yahoo! Messenger in the list, then uninstall it. Reboot if prompted. After it successfully uninstalls (reboot if prompted), go to "C:Program FilesYahoo", or if it is not there, "C:Program Files(x86)Yahoo". If you see a folder called "Messenger", delete it.

Reboot your computer, then reinstall the latest version of Yahoo! Messenger. You should be able to login now. If you are unable to log in, and you uninstalled Yahoo! Messenger using the second method, then you will have to use the first method.

I want to download yahoo messenger

Download Yahoo Messenger
  1. Proceed to the Yahoo Messenger Web site. You will click the 'Messenger' link on the Yahoo home page or you can head directly to the Messenger Web site (see Resources below).
  2. Click the 'Get Started' link on the Messenger home page. This will redirect you to the download page for the latest version of Yahoo Messenger.
  3. Wait a few seconds for the download to automatically begin, or press 'Click Here' in Step 1 of the Yahoo Messenger download page. This will open the dialog box that begins the download.
  4. Double-click the Yahoo Messenger executable once the download completes to begin the installation process.
http://ph.messenger.yahoo.com/download/ Tips & Warnings
  • Use Yahoo Messenger for voice-chat, conferencing, chat and a host of other communications options. It's even possible to send important documents to your contacts using Yahoo Messenger without having to send an email.
  • If you're having trouble getting Yahoo Messenger to work, get your questions answered by visiting the Yahoo Help Web site.
  • Be aware that there are some less than honorable people who use Yahoo Messenger. They are capable of crashing your services using boot programs or they will continually send you spam messages. Remember you can always choose to block, or ignore, other users so they can't continue to contact you.

When I send a email from my yahoo mail it shutsdown my yahoo mess

Welcome to FixYa
  • Check your Messenger is Sign in at the Time of Sign in to Yahoo mail
  • Check in MOBILE phone/any other Device as you Signed in
  • Check in any other Browser as you Signed in
  • Check any other yahoo account is Signed in your Computer
  • Restart your PC
  • Sign out from Mobile/any other Device
Yahoo has prevented us from having 2 Instant Messaging capable programs open and active at the same time.
For example, Yahoo Messenger with Yahoo Mail or Yahoo Web messenger, your mobile phone, Ipod, or other computers etc. etc.
Yahoo classifies all these programs as "Different devices or locations". Navigating from one to the other will close one program and you may get the notification message you refer to.

OR someone has hacked into your account- Report to Yahoo and Try to Recover it-Send report Politely and concisely.Do not try to Send More report for Same cause..

On more than on PC? Who else is accessing my same account?

Hi - Are you getting a message saying "You have been disconnected from chat because you have logged in from another location or device"
Since Messenger Version 9, Yahoo has prevented us from having 2 Instant Messaging capable programs open and active at the same time.
For example, Yahoo Messenger, Yahoo Web-messenger, Yahoo Mail, your mobile phone, other computers etc. etc.
Yahoo classifies all these programs as "Different devices or locations". Navigating from one to the other will close one program and you may get the above notification message .
Note. Hitting the X on the Contacts page in Yahoo Messenger does not sign you out of Yahoo Messenger, it merely closes the contacts page. Like WLM you have to close the program by right-clicking the icon in the system tray and selecting 'Exit'
You can have Yahoo Mail and Messenger ( or any other progam ) open at the same time as long as your status is "Offline" in Yahoo Mail. Use the drop-box next to your name and "Sign out of chat"
Your online contacts will vacate the inbox until you make yourself "Available" again.
If you feel that your account is being used - Exit all Yahoo applications - type your Username in here and hit 'GO'

Yahoo sayi been sign out because i sign in on a different computer or device

Thats happens for exactly two reasons
1. (the most common) when u are Online on Yahoo Messenger and you are checking your email in a browser.
2. Someone else uses your id and password to log on to your account.

If that happens try to change your YM password, and be very carefull where u are using the account. Never check the box "Remember my id and password ", do not log on on unsecure/unknown PC. ( some hacking software may be installed on unknown/unsecure PC like keylogger who hunts for any accounts logged on the victim PC)

My yahoo messenger account has been locked

Do you have windows vista?
Yahoo messenger 9, is BETA and very buggy.. Uninstall this program.
Then
Find and install an older version of messenger. Yahoo messenger 8.1 will work.

http://www.soft32.com/download_30.html

Another big problem is with the latest update for Flash Player
Flash player 10 Does have conflicts and is causing things to not load or just crash upon opening..Use the link below for a download of Flash player # 9.0.124.0 . You have to remove the present flash player,add/remove programs in control panel, then download the older version.
