Yahoo messenger display seems strange

When I install yahoo messenger (10 in this case), my screen pixelises and the colors go all strange... as in SafeMode... everything works ok but very bad color & photo

You can get in trouble with your device drivers. Go to the Device Manager by going to start / find and type Device Manager and enter and then double-click on the program icon that appears.  Check each device to a red x, yellow! or white?  These identify devices with problems probably (drivers, but also of conflict or something else).  Click on each for more details and troubleshooting tips.  If you need to get drivers (and you need to do for your video card and your monitor at least and all you have time to do - they can help way beyond simply solve this problem), let the computer dealer or the manufacturer of the device (NOT of Microsoft Updates).  In fact, you must disable automatic updates in Windows Update driver as follows: http://www.addictivetips.com/windows-tips/how-to-disable-automatic-driver-installation-in-windows-vista/. Follow these steps to get the drivers: http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/ht/driverdlmfgr.htm.  Once you have the drivers, you can install them via the Manager device as follows:http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-device-manager-install-driver.html.

Make sure you are completely up to date on updates of Windows Vista - can be treated a fix for this problem.

Try to select a different theme of the video and see if the same problem occurs.  If this is not the case, there may be a problem with the help of this theme with Yahoo Messenger.

Uninstall Yahoo Messenger and see if your video returns to normal.  Then try to reinstall again and see if the problem comes back (it may have simply been a problem with this particular facility).  If she comes back, go to the next step.

Try contacting the Support of Yahoo to the:http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/messenger/messenger10/index.html.  I can't direct you to the site for specific contact because you must be a member to get there and I'm not - but she should leave you and then you should be able to talk with someone (maybe by phone, maybe by chat or forum - I don't know what options are available).  They may have an answer to your problem.

I hope this helps.

Good luck!

    Hello

    (1) have you downloaded the latest version of Yahoo messenger?

    To download please see: http://messenger.yahoo.com

    I would ask contact you Yahoo support for assistance.

  • Once I downloaded the new version of Adobe Flash Player 11.3.300.262, I can not play games with my friends on Yahoo Messenger.

    It could be a coincidence, but when I upgraded to the latest version of Adobe Flash Player 11.3.300.262 I can not play games with my friends on Yahoo Messenger. I know that when I've updated for a reason that I had to try 3 times before it took. It shows that it is updated. I wonder if I have to uninstall and reinstall. Also, I never use Internet Explorer 8 but when I went there to check I found a plug check link there and it showed over there that Adobe Flash Player necessary update but it was an older version and not a Foxfire had updated me too. Now I'm really confused if it causes a problem. I've never had to control Internet Explorer for plug-ins before. Have always just updated to Foxfire since that's what I use. Adobe Flash Player seems to play videos OK not really sure if this is the issue or not. My Java plug-ins have been very well and have been updated some time there, so I know it's not that. Any help is appreciated. Thank you!

    Hey again,
    After hours of reading and checking to make sure I had good things enabled, I did, I gave up and uninstalled the latest version of Adobe Flash Player, they gave me and re-installed and later I had my friend get on Messenger and we tried games and it worked this time.
    For some strange reason when I updated it took me 3 tries before it took. So even if he told me that it has been installed, apparently it wasn't really. Just goes to show you that you can not trust what you see.
    What has really scratching my head was I went to Internet Explorer 8, which I never use more and discovered you can now get Mozilla plug in slip out there and when I did showed that same Adobe Flash Player is outdated but it was to a different version. Not knowing if it would help, I installed a new too and he said it was his understanding that it does not. So I guess you can have 1 version installed on the computer 1 despite 2 browsers different different versions. It becomes too complicated for me. Laughing out loud!
    I work with computers all the time at work but not the technical stuff. If it's something simple, I can guess through it to help someone but it's my first personal computer for me and is a former first, so I got experience using different types. We use the desk at work as well. Personally, I like computers laptops for various reasons. And the mention of people many browsers go way over my head.
    Please answer this question though and you answer back.

    Alireza salvation,

    It looks like a known issue reported here:

    https://Bugzilla.Mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=713014

    There was a workaround solution posted, but I have not tested it myself. Here are the steps.

    1. Go to the Yahoo Messenger Options - change the window in the tab menu and press OK.
    2. Then go back and switch to the small window and press OK.

    Once the bug is resolved formally, you could try to run every night or Aurora build to use the hotfix at the beginning.

    Hope this helps!

  • Satellite A200 - Chicony Webcam with Yahoo messenger

    I have a Toshiba A200-PSAE0E with Windows Vista Home Premium. My built-in Webcam (Chicony USB 2.0, 1.3MP camera) worked very well with all applications including Yahoo Messenger.

    The driver is installed fine and support both camera software.

    I installed Office 2003, and it is the only change that I made on the software.

    My Webcam now works with Camera Assistant software, but not in Yahoo Messenger.

    While I checked in the Yahoo help for the needs of webcam it clearly says the color scheme / Compression should have the format RGB, I420, or IYUV, which I did not, instead I YUY2.

    How come my Webcam with Yahoo messenger access.

    > I have a Toshiba A200-PSAE0E with Windows Vista Home Premium. My built-in Webcam (Chicony USB 2.0, 1.3MP camera) worked very well with all applications including Yahoo Messenger.

    I think you don't need all the new drivers, because you already said the webcam worked fine using the original installed drivers.
    I don't know exactly why it is not possible to use it with Yahoo messenger after installation of Microsoft Office 2003, but I think that there are some confused system or drivers files.
    But to be honest, this seems very strange and I can't believe that the Office 2003 could have a bad influence on the webcam?  :|

    Eventually, you will need to reinstall the operating system or should try to restore the operating system to the previous system to check if it helps to solve this problem.
    That's all I can suggest.

  • Cannot load Yahoo messenger no matter how trying?

    I have Yahoo mail and yahoo messenger as a separate charge on my Start menu. I tried every way so he could add it on, or load with Mozilla Firefox, but outside to have the 'groovy' notes & this background image terribly stupid & obstructive, for Yahoo mail, nothing will be displayed on Mozilla, on Messenger or trying to load? I should resign me to always separately load YM?

    Roydavid,
    I'm really not sure because I do not use the extensions you have installed. Do disable this contributes to the loss of functionality in the site Web of Yahoo?

    The best way to know is to try to open Firefox with a new profile:

  • Satellite A200-J01: problems with Chicony webcam with Yahoo messenger and MSN

    Dear friends

    I just bought a Satellite A200-J01 with Windows Vista Edition Home Premium pre-installed on it. My problem is when I want to use my webcam (Chicony USB built-in 2.00) to have a video call with MSN and Yahoo messenger Internet, suddenly, it stops working and it shows a message that the webcam is not connected and no webcam was found on your computer.

    And then when I log out Yahoo messenger, come out of her and run Camera Assistant Software it shows this message "Locked by another application" Although there is no other applications running.

    The problem remains, unless I restart the computer. I read all the topics and messages as in my case in this site, but none of them helped me. I want to know if someone has encountered this problem, if this chicony webcam is compatible with yahoo and msn messenger and finally what I can do about it.

    Hello

    What about software chicory and the driver update?
    Please check if the software most recent is available and has been released. If so, remove it the old an and after reboot the new install the most recent version of this software chicony.

    It seems that similar problems appear on laptops from different manufacturers that use the Chicony webcam.
    Everything looks like the chicony Vista software is not 100% compatible with MSN, yahoo Messenger, Skype etc programs.
