usually after a couple of months of inactivity they automatically delete the account. You can also call the customer number and have them verify it that way.

This is what I found on Y! Answers search, from a past answerer 'Scara':\n"Email the yahoo account security department.. they are able to verify the past information on the account... if any changes have been made they are able to see the changed info.. there email address is account-security-help@ cc.yahoo-inc.com when you email them just put your yahoo id in the subject line and in the body of the email just tell them what happened.. They will send you a list of 8 questions.. Just reply to that email.. do not change the subject line.. and answer the questions.. they will be able to verify those questions based on the original registration information and should be able to help you access back into your account."

If it has been a while since you have logged into that account the Yahoo has probably deleted the account. You may want to try logging in, and then send the old password to your e-mail and see what happens.. If not then I guess that they ID has been deleted and that you will have to get another one.

Are you using Yahoo messenger with your problem?  Anyway, you can always go back and answer your "Secret Question" then change your password (Hit the "Forgot Password" link by the login)  If you are logged in, look at your cookies for yahoo.

go to mail.yahoo.com\ntry to signin, if your password is correct eventhough your ID has been locked. it will ask you whether you want to turn it on again.\n\nBut if your password is incorrect, and you did not know your Birthday, then the only solution is to create a new Yahoo ID.\n\ndboy\nMy Blog: http://dragonboy2006.blogspot.com

The only way is take help from Yahoo..\nRead the automated messages properly.. Check the messages u recieve when you click on "FORGOT PASSWORD".\n\nCreate a new account and provide that id to yahoo.

I could help you out but i would need a few things... i need the userid and i need to see the person online. I would be then be able to get the email... but since yahoo is free, get a new one...

I could not find a way to change your secret question.\n\nHowever, when you try to change your password, you are not asked the secret question. You can simply change password by going to Options > Account information > (Enter password) > Change password. This does not need the secret question.\n\nSecret question is asked when you gave forgotten your password and you click on that link (Forgot my password). Yahoo then ask you identification questions to send you your password or send you a new password. This is done only when you are identified using your secret question.

Click on the Change Password link located above the Membership Information section of your Account Information page. You will be asked to enter your current password once and your new password twice. Make sure to click Save when you're done. \nPlease Note: To protect your account, make sure your password is memorable for you but difficult for others to guess. Never use the same password that you've used in the past, and do not share your password with anyone. For security purposes, your new password must be a minimum of six characters long. A good password contains a combination of uppercase and lowercase letters (remember that your password is case sensitive), numbers, and special characters such as $, ?, and *. \n\nFor additional information on choosing a strong password, please visit the Yahoo! Security Center

If you can remember your password, go to your mail options, and fiddle with the links to get to the "Change my secret question" place. You will have to enter your password and be able to change your secret questioin.

Well, did you give them another e-mail id? \nIf you have then, you can request a new password on that id.\nAll you can do now is to contact the yahoo services. They are pretty helpful. I had lost a password and contacted them.\nI really don't remember what all I had to do at that time just that they made me fill up a form.\n\nGood Luck!
