Can't sign into Yahoo

Has anyone ever had issues with Yahoo where it won't let you log into your account and couldn't recover it so you had to open a new one?

This just happened again. It says my password is incorrect and I can't reset it online either so it said I would have to contact customer service so I did and I still have to hear from them. I called and emailed them too.


I wonder if my account was hacked and they changed the password on me. Fortunately I didn't have my real name on it or any card or bank information. Or did they close it on me? I haven't done anything wrong that would violate their term.

Give it a while and try again before getting too worried. As it turns out, I can't log into my Yahoo! account right now either. I get "Temporary error: 14", whatever that means. Basically, something's messed up right now. Your password is probably fine.

It says password is incorrect. I am not getting that exact same error you are.

But yet I am still logged in my account, I just can't access my account information or my email because it is asking me to sign in again. That reminds me of the time when a moderator changed my password on another forum and it said I wasn't logged in but my computer acted like i was still logged in so I was still able to post but i couldn't access my PMs or my account information. That is what happened when I was still logged on the forum and using it and the moderator just changed my password locking me out of my own account. I think this still happened while I was away because I am always signed in and I come home and can't sign into my email but yet I am still signed onto yahoo but not on messenger.

It keeps saying "please enter your password" after I had entered it.

Yahoo has the worst security ever

It got fixed and then I started to get failure delivery notices in my inbox so I changed my password again and still the same problem so I reported it as hacked and the bounced emails stopped. It was sending things to facebook from my email. Then few days ago I was automatically signed out of yahoo and it said password incorrect so I go to yahoo mail and right after I sign in again, it takes me to a page to create a new password and then i was back in again. Very weird.

I don't know if the two are related, but Facebook was down 4 times this week.

:sad:
I had a yahoo account once, this was way back in 2004-ish. I lost my password on it, and they locked the account. I used fake info for it, I couldn't remember it; so it's gone for ever. Which was a shame since I had some AB/DL friends on yahoo chat from the old DPF days. One even brought me some diapers and plastic pants.
