Notag

Running Adium 1.4b6 and I cannot log into Yahoo. Doing some research here is what I found.

Discussion on the user forums.

Some say log into yahoo mail, answer additional security questions, then it works.

Another solution, use proxy at http://meebo.com

More info here at the pidgin FAQ.

Another work-around is replacing the default login server with 66.163.181.166.

Preferences->Accounts
Click Yahoo account.
Click Edit.
Click Options.

Change login Server to cs101.msg.mud.yahoo.com, leave port 5050, that fixed my problem.

1.4b7 was released. It fixes the Yahoo problems. Make sure you read the patch notes!
