BB Style :: Cant Connect To Yahoo Instant Messenger
Mar 24, 2012
I have been trying to log into my yahoo IM from my Blackberry phone but it keeps telling me it can't connect to the server. I took my phone to sprint but they said the problem is not the phone but the app.
It started happening day before yesterday. All of a sudden I stop receiving messages from the person I am talking to. I have all of my service and coverage indicators so I am baffled as to why this is happening.
I had a BB Pearl with Tmobile that allowed for several different instant messenging providers but on my new Bold 9700, it only appears as if BB messenger is allowed. If this is not the case, can someone tell me how to get the others?
i've got problem with my bb connecting through a wifi cos am in a foreign country and they network service don't support black berry but i have a wifi connection but i can't connect my mail and my instanst messenger.
Yahoo Messenger has been installed and use for long time in my 9300. Somehow, in past 2 weeks, I could not login to Yahoo, Yahoo Mail or Yahoo Messenger.
Everytime lgoin to yahoo web, mail or messenger always giving me Username and password is invalid. But for Pop-up mail with Yahoo still working and fine
Several trial has been done in the device, like:
- Re-install Yahoo Messenger
- Uncheck item"Remeber my ID..."
- Trial with several account
With PC Login:
- Through yahoo website account and delete all web related connection
- Login with PC desktop with all the account not any issue and can login perfectly
Of course, regular ceremony by reset, remove battery has been doing as well
is it true that if I were to install Yahoo/AOL IM on my iPhone that each message will count as a text message?That is what the sales assoc. told me...hope that is incorrect.
i bought my wife a bb curve 8520 and she has been using bbm fine until a couple of days ago. she went on the instant message icon and there was nothing there,i went on the blackberry app and downloaded bb messenger again and im still getting the same result.
Ive had it less than a week and im getting more familiar with its features and how it operates, however, ive set up the BB instant messenger using PIN.
Now, the main problem is the sound notifications for the messenger.
In "BlackBerry Messenger Alert" I set "out of holster" to 'tone' and the volume to 'medium'. And, in:
"BlackBerry Messenger New Message" - The same.
When i recieve the INITIAL chat request, my phone makes the sound ive set. Once in the messenger chatting i still get the notification sounds.
I have tried all manner of different setting from muting, and setting 'tone' to 'none'; both in holster and out of holster.
Basically, i want my phone to notify me of the initial/new message, but NOT beep/sound during the actual conversation.
I don't receive offline message in Yahoo Instant messenger. I can chat, but if someone send a message while i'm signed out - I never get it. Only happens while using the messenger app on my blackberry. Contact Pics don't update either.
I just got a new blackberry im very new with it, I'm told I'm not allowed to access my instant messenger's unless i get a contract... which i dumb because im prepaid, and last time i checked they sale blackberrys for prepaid so why cant prepaid customers cant get prepaid data plans... anyways... im trying to sign into my instant messenger for yahoo and msn that i downloaded from the blackberry site.... at first it told me when i tried to sign in i needed a activation code, to speak to a representative... so i did and... they told me different stories and a bunch of crap... then concluded that i wasnt able to access messengers unless i had a contract i was able to download and access with pantech duo smart phone and any other phone but black berry this is a big issue my 2nd phone i had to buy because of this issue
My phone is indicating I have 2 instant messages but I cant for the life of me find where they are on my phone. Im not sure if its a fault on my phone (Blod 9700)
How can I find out what these 2 items are and get rid of them somehow. do I need to reset or something?
I have installed the Yahoo mail ndroid app and the e-mail is good. However I can only get instant e-mail notifivations when on wifi. I can pick up emails on 3G but only by opening up the inbox. The emails still do not show up as notifications. No reply so far from Yahoo technical help.
For some reason when trying to use either the AOL IM or Google Chat client, the phone doesn't make any audio notifications of new messages in a conversation. I've made sure that under more/settings play sound on new messages and vibrate on new messages are checked, but the phone doesn't do that.
Trying to sort out my bosses Blackberry. IT don't know much about them...!
Its a Blackberry Bold 9000 on Vodafone (NZ) OS V4.6.0.247
Right so I know a *bit* about Blackberry's (have a storm...) so I seem to be the go to for a lot of the bosses. As with most work phones, every other application has been deleted off it, eg bluetooth, instant messaging etc. The problem is that the Blackberry Messenger Message button (blue double B) is still appearing on his home screen, even though Instant Chat has been deleted.
I have a 9700 eith the latest version of the software installed.
I read an article on the net that said to free-up device memory I should install items to my memory card.
In Application World, I highlighted Yahoo Messenger 2.5.32, clicked archive & it came up archiving complete. I tried to use the app but couldn't so I restored it, restarted, typed in my username/password & my contacts no longer received any of my messages.
I read on the net to remove the batter & try again, which worked until I logged out of Yahoo & since then Yahoo hasn't worked since. I have removed/re-installed it a number of times, removed the battery & nothing
Before I clicked archive & if logged on to the computer then logged on Yahoo with my 9700 it said on the computer I have logged in from a different location. If I was logged in on my phone then logged in via the computer I used to get an error 100 (unable to connect to the server) meaning I was logged in from a different location. Now, I can be on the computer, login on the phone which doesn't log me out of the computer & I can send messages from the phone yet no contact receives them. Go to the computer & send them with computer & phone logged it & automatically the contacts get my messages.
Also, if I remove the application, auto-restart when the phone comes back up I see a 'Y' on the Yahoo e-mail folder, but not always.
Since about the early of July12, I cannot access yahoo messenger on my blackberry 9700 anymore so far. I have tried many ways to solve but it always say "invalid password or user" or "unable to contact the server, error " something like that.
Even I uninstalled/reinstalled, changed version of yahoo messenger, also wipe my bb and installed new os... all everything I have done doesnt work at all.
What can I do ? I really wanna use yahoo messenger. It works in everywhere except on blackberry.
i have a bb curve 8520. i can connect thru wifi at home and can use the internet browser. but i cant log in to yahoo messenger and my messages in bbm is not sending.
ok so here goes. as my profile states , i have an 9520 on Orange , i have BIS activated and normal data plan. for some weird reason , yahoo messenger DEDICATED APP ( the one from blackberry , or blackberry yahoo messenger how others call it) will not work. it launches , i write my user & pass , i tap on sign in and then it says "signing in as xxxxxxxxxxxx..." for a very long time after which it gives me an "Internal error" error and after i click ok on that it gives me an "Could not connect to server" error. yes , i deleted the cache , cookies , etc , yes it does work to sign in from the browser/opera and yes i did reinstall it a thousand times and yes i did asked for my service books to be resent and i replaced them.
I use Yahoo Messenger on my computer to text a friend on his phone. However, when I leave the house, I'd like to be able to receive any replies that he sends so I use the sign into Yahoo Messenger on my cell phone option, but even though he sends replies, I never receive them on my phone.
I have recently bought a bb Bold 9780, subcribed to BIS on mobily network.i can send and recieve emails and browse internet too.. however cant use the facebook my space twitter or other app on the phone.In network option , Blackberry internet options shows not connected.on the status bar on the top of the screen i see 3G with the bb logo.
im having a problem with the blod 9780, its my second blackberry bold first of all I thought its the cellphone problem then i sell it and i got new blod 9780 also its a having the same crazy thing saying (service not enabled for this handheld.) the msn, Google talk are working and other messengers but yahoo is killing me i don't know whats the wrong with it..
I downloaded YM last night, and when it was done downloading, I clicked on the YM icon, nothing happened. My BB just freezed, tried battery pull couple of time, nothing happened.
So, today I got a nerve to upgrade the OS from 4.6 to the latest released by my carrier 5.0.0.461. Upgrading was successful, but the YM was still not working, it just freezed my blackberry.
I even tried JMLcmdr to wipe al the whole thing on my BB and reinstalled the latest OS, still the YM problem persists.
What should I do now ? Was there something I did wrong while upgrading YM at the first place ?
I've been using yahoo messenger on my blackberry torch 9800 since June 2011 and so far have not encountered problem. But yesterday I had difficulty logging in to my ym account. It would say invalid username or password. But after several attempts I managed to log in. However today I can no longer log in. I tried logging in to my iPad and laptop and I can. But if I would log in at my blackberry I cannot access. Invalid username and password was always the answer. I tried deleting the app and reinstalling it again and again but to no avail. I also downloaded yahoo messenger using blackberry browser and it's also no use. I also tried changing the password on the laptop but it did not work either.
