I use Window's IE. Since the new stuff from Yahoo for their mail and, some crap from Firefox, I can't chat in Yahoo anymore. Got any idea's? If so, will you send your replie's to my mail? I'm going to bed. I've had enough tonight. Thank's ppl. Shoes

you might require a plug in for firefox to make it work. Go to the firefox website and look for the plugins and see if there is anything for chat and specifically one for any site's chat.

Without the specific browser and os, i can't be sure. If the feature was working before, (and i suspect it was) I would look at recent changes. You may need to look into settings, as Andy eluded to, in the above post.

There is one thing, that i can think of, off the top of my head. Any time you install/update a browser, there may be conflicting issues with Java. usually though, if there are java issues, there will be other problems. Misaligned pages, buttons out of place, etc.

You mentioned Mozilla, it is an excellent browser, ( i run it myself) but some applications may need to be allowed, in order for it to run properly. I would check that. Assuming your antivirus is not new?

I'm sorry that I was unclear. Mozzila is fine. The issue is with Window's IE. used to work there, not anymore.

You should try reseting IE completely. You want too first clear your Browsing sessions by going to tools > internet options > Browsing History > (clear history, cookies, temporary internet files)

Once that's done, look for "advanced" at the top of the navigation in your "internet options", click on it. Then at the bottom you will read "reset"...click the button, then again, click "reset". Do not click on "delete personal settings" unless you really want to lose your home page, search providers, passwords, etc.

This is the first step to either fixing the problem or figuring out that it is another problem.

Let me know how that works for you.

Also, if you do not have the latest IE browser, which is 8, you should upgrade your browser and then Try the compatibility button up by the address bar to also see if that works.

It didn't work.

Ok, thats good but not good...lol - Just to let you know The new yahoo mail does require a good internet connection and if you don't have that then it won't run properly...that could be your main cause right there. IE renders much slower than Firefox, so of course FF will render yahoo mail correctly.

The new yahoo mail is also still buggy sometimes, so you can also switch back to classic, then switch back to the new yahoo mail and see if that clears up. If not I suggest just using yahoo mail & chat in Firefox.

I tried switching with the version's of mail. Didn't work. You're right, Firefox is MUCH faster. I'll just stick with it. I do thank you for your help. Appreciate it, Shoes.
