It might not be your email. It could be your browser. I had the same problem, and my son (who is an IT person with the state of Georgia) told me to download the Firefox browser. I did. Works great. I'm still having the same problem with the Microsoft Internet Explorer that came with my computer ... and every other computer I've ever owned.  \n\nTry it ... but you will have to either set it as the default browser or open it manually when you want to surf the net or check your email. Copy the address below to get connected with Firefox!\n\nGood luck!

I had/have that problem with Internet Explorer. It was a major pain. I suggest switching to Mozilla Firefox. That's what I did.\n\nhttp://mozilla.org/firefox\n\n...And yes, JavaScript was turned on...

If you could log in before and can't now: First check with the IT department and make sure your password is still valid.\nsecond did you up grade to IE7 if yes then remove IE7 and try it with IE6. \nI can not log on to my office web site with IE7 the site won't take the password, but when I go back to IE6 everything is fine.

I work at my university's Help Desk and I might know the answer to this.  There are alot of browser issues that can occur when trying to open certain websites, such as the one you might use to check your email.  Also, some password prompts and inboxes appear as pop-ups which are blocked by IE as a default.  On a PC (assumed since you are not using Safari) go up to where it says file, edit, view, favorites, tools and help:  tools-> popup blocker and either turn it off while trying to access your email... \n\nor choose 'internet options' under tools and then under the privacy tab there is an icon for trusted sites.  After clicking the trusted sites icon, select "Sites" from below the icon list and add the website where you check your mail at (http://www.yahoo.com or http://mail.hotmail.com), but make sure that this address is correct.  There is a check box below the list of trusted sites, if this is checked it requires HTTPS verification.  If you do not recieve your mail from a server (ie just HTTP) make sure this box is not selected otherwise IE will not alow you to save the site. \n\nOther things can block popups, too; such as Norton Internet Security, google/yahoo toolbars, and most internet browsers and some ISPs (internet service providers, AOL, SBC/ATT).  \n\nThere are many, many more browser reasons why you may not be able to view your email using a specific browser such as Java and cookie settings.  SBC/ATT and MSN use a default IE broswer that doesnt allow some java and selective pop ups.  If you use either of these ISP's you might be able to use an external IE browser, try going to (again, PC assumed) start -> programs -> internet explorer.

If you use Mozilla or Netscape browser, there are some servers that will allow you to save the username and password so it appears automatically when you log in. (Yahoo mail is not one of them) You can get into your email account with a minimum of looking at the screen and only using the mouse once. For instance, Mozilla broswer is the first thing on my windows start menu. Once online, the email account is the first thing on the favorites list. So if my computer is in sleep mode, here is how I get online and get my verizon email with DSL:\n\n1. Windows key\n2. wait 5 seconds\n3. arrow down once (calling up the browser launches the dialer, with username and password already loaded as default)\n4. enter\n5. wait 5 seconds\n6. alt + B\n7. arrow down 3 times\n8. enter\n9. (username and password automatically filled in)\n10. move mouse to Login button, left-click once\n\nIf your email sign in page is your default home page, you can skip steps 6, 7 and 8.

Yep, looks like Gmail is down.  Try again in a few minutes... which is what Google says.  There is no solution since the problem lies on Google's end, you'll just have to wait for them to fix the problem.\n\nWell... it's working now if that's any consolation (9:15am EST).

Cookies should be enabled in your browsers for most of the E-mails.\n\n If your browser blocks all Cookies then your login time expires right away. If you don't know what i am talking about open the TOOLS menu in Internet Explorer and click on INTERNET OPTIONS. Small window will appear. Click on the PRIVACY tab and click on DEFAULT button. Now click OK.  That should do it. Good luck

Have this problem often. To fix it I close YME, open IE and then clear all cookies. Reopen YME and sign in - works. It seems that the cookie expires in IE and YME doesn't know how to get rid of it.

Check to see if your IE is not in full screen mode. To do this follow the step the previous answerer provided.\n\nIf your IE is in normal mode. Then you can check if an activeX is installled.\n\nGo to this directory and see if the required activeX is installed or not. If required reinstall it.\nC:&#92;WINDOWS&#92;Downloaded Program Files
