The attachment your trying to open has not been associated with an application, meaning that the OS doesn't know what program to use to open it. Download it, save it to your desktop (or where ever you want it) right click on it and select open with, then choose a program from the list thats capable of opening it.

Look in "received files" or try downloading something else and see the place your files go to when you grab them :)

You Must Know The Format Of That Attachment.\n\nIf Your PC Has The Same Program To Read That Format\nThen No Problem.\nOtherwise You Must Install That Program First.\n\nmail to abrly, if u need more clarifications!!!\n\nabrly@yahoo.com

Well, it doesnt work with attachments alone.  Try checking your mail with more than 3 windows, one of them is likely to tell you that your log in session is expired.  Maybe its a security thingie on their part, to make sure that your box is not being compromised.  I think you just need to be patient.  As long as two windows can do the stuff, use them as much as you can and send them.  If it doesnt work, try gmail (not much good advice as we are using Yahoo! services now, heehee). good luck

If you haven't already, reboot the machine and try deleting the message with the attachment.  If that doesn't work, try this.\n1) Select the message\n2) Hold down the SHIFT key and then press DELETE\n\nThis will bypass the Deleted Items Folder.

It may very well be a virus!  Just delete it! I hope you didn't open it, and click on an attachment.  If you did, then download a freeware antivirus program at: www.snapfiles.com.

What software are you using to check your email?  Usually there is a setting in preferences or options that allows you to select "do not open suspicious attachments" or something to that extent.\n\nGo into your preferences and find that.  Uncheck it and you should be good to go.  I know Outlook Express has this checked by default.

If the problem is with webmail, you may be using a defective or obsolete web browser (like Internet Explorer 3). Try installing a newer one.\n\nIf the problem is in a mail client like Outlook, your antivirus or firewall can be preventing you from attaching potentially harmful files. Disable them for a while and try again.

Try a different email account/service.\n\nIf there is an attachment involved that you are using maybe the file is too big.  Otherwise, you may just wait a day and see if it works the next day.

you probably don't have the correct program to view the file. Check the Microsoft website to see what you need to open it.

Did you retry a few times, or try refreshing the page?\n\nSometimes it works when you open in a new window - ie when you go to click on the link/button to open the attachment, right click on it instead and then select Open in New Window.

just go to http://briefcase.yahoo.com\nthat should work once you login.\n\noh...check the mail attachments folder for files saved from emails.

It might still exist in one of your temporary directories.  Go to the email and try to determine the name of the attachment (don't reopen it or save it!). Then search your hard drive for the name of the file. If you find it, copy it to My Documents. You have a good chance of recovering it.

It could be a number of things.  I would first check what type of link that it is and check that your file associations are correct.  For instance if you are clicking the link to a JPG file then you should see something like Windows Picture and Fax viewer come up.  You can check file associations by finding the type of file you were trying to open (html, jpg, etc) and then go to the properties and make sure it is associated properly.\n\nPop up blocker?  This could also cause the problem.\n\nMaybe even something in your IE cache that has caused an issue.  Empty your temp internet folder and all files, then also go reset your security for the internet zone.
