i try and try..... then it says the acocunt is lock for 12 hours because it says i try so many times. so i wait then next time try again... and again.... then suddenly bam! got in with the one without number. it says on the page blah blah somehow it was deactivate so i had to click the "reactivate button" then it tells me to wait 12 hour for the account to fully restore and so i can use the email.

.....so another day... wake up..... try logging in.... and cant! what???? why??? it was the same password and everything.

i use firefox and i even try logging in on another pc which is a laptop with both firefox and internet explorer and still the same. cant login.

It's not a software issue.

Why don't you click on the "I forgot my password" link and answer the security question?
 
You said you haven't used it since you created it, if you've truly never logged on it. The reason isn't the password's wrong. After I believe 6 months of inactivity Yahoo will close the account.

if 6 months of inactivity, yahoo will close account? if thats the case then..... when i happend to got in and i clcked "reactivate account" then it says wait 12 hours to be able to use the account again. over 12 hours and try to login and still says inccorect password or username.

yeah so if yahoo close inactive account.... then it shouldnt be the case since i already click reactivate.

i cant use "forgot password" since it ask for security questions which i dont have the security question and answer. thats what it says i dont have security question when im trying to do it.






maybe some bozo thinks it is their email address and keeps trying to get in, locking you out?

i dont believe so. i believe it is cause of me trying it many time consecutively.



Wow.
Next time why don't you try giving them real contact info?

well its was a quick stuff so i didnt really think. i jus dsgfdsgfdgdsg
