Why sometimes my Yahoo ID says "Wrong Username or Password"

Why my Yahoo ID act strange some times? I can't login to my account although there isn't anything wrong with ID and password.

I am facing this frequently now, how to get rid of this problem?

Sometimes I can't login for some time, around 15 minutes or more.

Any solution?

 

Maybe you actually mistype them?

 

You should type full user name as xyz@yahoo.co.in or xyz@yahoo.com
See the difference between these two.

 

Really simple solution: type in the right username or password.

 

Well this was the funniest question ever? You most likely typed it wrong?

 

it happened to me too sometimes.. when i was sleepy

 

He`s right. Sometimes you can`t log in. I have username and password stored on computer, so it`s not about misstype or smth.

 

I also often get this kind error. Sometime, their server unreachable, and to solve this problem, usually, I open my email first, and after, the e-mail and YM in e-mail are ready, I can login with my YM application.

 

Or he could have been trying to hack into another person's email :O wait...nvm...didnt make sense, he was sleepy, we can all leave it at that

 

typing error or due to the Capslock

 

Funny thread. No one can prevent you from logging in if your username and PW is correct.

 

Funny as it seems but it also happens to me. The solution is, troubleshoot, usually it says yahoo cannot be accessed click on the link and log-in again. Your problem is solved.

 

Mine autocompletes as well and passwords never changes since day 1, but sometimes my login fails, it does happen.

 

I have noted this happening to one of my yahoo account and I have even tried to escalate the issue to yahoo customer service, they were clue less and they tendered apology, they want to check when some one gets this error, but this prob doesn't stay long, just for max. of 1hr at times, so by the time they look into it, the account would be working charm,

the points which I noted is:
If you have an account, with a false country residence details - this prob occurs, on the account which I face prob, I have it as an US address and I log on from India, as earlier during signups Indian address would lead me to .co.in emails which I hated a lot. I am not sure if I would face the song if I login from US though, I have other accounts with Indian addresses and they never threw me this sort of nightmares..

earlier I used to think may be some one hacked into my account, which is literally impossible for any one, as I find myself impossible to remember the pwd, only if I forgot to log on some where r use some infected cafe I am safe

 

yeah i try the same solution but i rarely have such problems , once a month or not even that.

 

It happens sometimes . maybe your Cap Locks is on and something u misses something while you were typing
