First, go to you IE, Click on Tools, Click on Internet Options, Click on Connections, then check "Always Dial my Default Connection. Click Apply, Click OK.

When Yahoo detects that you've already signed into Yahoo Mail, it will disconnect you when you try to sign into messenger or vice versa - thus, the message that you are signed in to another computer.
To get rid of your problem simply disable chat in your mail account by clicking the smiley and following the prompts.
Yahoo remembers your settings until you change them.
Hitting the X on the Contacts page in Yahoo Messenger does Not Sign you out of Yahoo Messenger, it merely closes the contacts page. Always Click "Close & Sign Out" for your Y!M.

I hope this solution will act as an insurance upon soling this problem of yours

SOURCE: i am unable to sign in to yahoo messenger

Install older version of yahoo messenger..
And let me tell your one thing that, when to try to login to your yahoo account on yahoo messenger, your internet connection must be responding. This you can ensure by keeping your server busy(opening websites).
The problem you are telling might be caused when you are trying to login to yahoo account through yahoo messenger and yahoo mail.
I recommend you that you open yahoo account through yahoo mail(only if you are unable to sign in to yahoo account through yahoo messenger.)
yahoo mail now-a-days is providing yahoo chat service when you sign in your yahoo account on yahoo mail.
at left side of your mail box you can see yahoo mini messenger.

SOURCE: about signing in in yahoo messenger

Yahoo messenger presently is undergoing few changes at the server end. In order to login efficiently I use to run two ping commands. To do so, press on start button click on run button type cmd in the box and hit ok button. In the black window now type exactly the same in the bracket remember brackets are not included in the command (ping www.yahoo.com -t) don't forget to put space after .com before typing -t. -t is hyphen t. repeat this message once more and you will be able to login through messenger. Happy chatting

Want to sign to yahoo messenger

You have to write the full email address for signing in. For example if your yahoo e-mail address is [email protected] then if you use abcd to sign into messenger then you will get errors. Use the full e-mail id to sign in.

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..

ERHyNAH75 I keep getting signed out of yahoo IM.

Yahoo Mail ?
"You have been signed out out of chat because you have signed in on another device" ?

Hi,
Since Messenger Version 9 was launched, Yahoo has prevented us from having 2 Instant Messaging capable programs open and active at the same time.
For example, Yahoo Messenger, Yahoo Webmessenger, Yahoo Mail, 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 referred to above..
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 program ) 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

Can't stay signed-in to YM, always getting disconnected

You can only have one yahoo "Instant message capable" program open at one time. So if you move from Messenger to mail or chat you will get this message. If you want to have Yahoo Mail open with another Yahoo IM program you will have to set your status to "offline" in MAIL by using the dropbox next to your name ( all new mail) select "sign out of chat"
In Classic mail its located in the Inbox. Your online chat contacts will vacate the inbox until you make yourself "Available" again.
Yahoo classifies - Messenger - Mail - webmessenger - my yahoo - mobile phones - computers etc etc as different computers or devices - hence the confusion.

IM signs me out saying I'm already signed in elsewhere.

When you sign into Mail first, the new Yahoo mail automatically signs you into messenger. Mine did that all the time so now I sign into Yahoo Messenger first then when it tells me I have mail, I click on the envelope and it takes me to my mail account without signing me out of messenger. I hope that helps you.
