i'm having trouble logging into yahoo games, why?

Answer 1

Yahoo has a new format. Here are several things you should know and do:

If you continue to experience problems, please double-check your browser settings and make sure Java is enabled.

Selecting small table before you enter a room makes more room for dialog on table.
Selecting small table after you enter does too, and also stops the ads, however; you only see the top half your cards.
Or you can just change your screen resolution by going to properties on your desktop, then settings and slide just a tiny bit from 800x600 to 1024x768 and switch it back when you finish playing. Which is what I do.

If the problems you're experiencing with Yahoo! Games include:

getting a blank screen
nothing occurring when you try to join a table
any similar problem

Make sure that the "Enable Java" box is checked.(under tools on browser choose internet options then advanced)

http://java.sun.com/ .........To install latest version

You may need to analyze for defragmenting. Increase your memory if you keep losing your connection while playing. (under tools tab click on internet options, then settings, then advanced, needs to be 526 or higher.)

You may also want to clear your cache(history)on your browser or on internet options and restart your browser

If you have a pop-up blocker click on it, Click on always allow and type http://games.yahoo.com
You cannot chat in yahoo anymore except on table and in lobby.

Shove-it backdoor isn't working right now either so use Amish Donkey.com backdoor: http://amishdonkey.com

If you continue to have problems, double-check your computer's compatibility with Yahoo! Games.

Yahoo has a spam chip now so if you move around too much, get booted from tables too much or get invited too much, it will mistake you for spam and bar you from games for 24, 48 and 72 hrs.

I hope this helps you out. It did the trick for me. It also increased my speed.

Answer 2

I have played card games on yahoo for years. An ongoing problem is that their game servers go down more often than they should, its gotten better the last year or two but still isn't great. I've logged in many times and seen all the room capacity at either zero or very low populations. Thats your first clue that yahoo is having problems and its not your computer.
