infinity11 Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 I have already spent time researching this so i pose the question here.In yahoo mail when i send an email to myself a small drop down pic of me appears next to the email address prediction.How can i delete or change it?I tired messenger settings and other settings but can not find the pic/icon option anywhere. I was sent to yahoo profile which is inoperable.I do not want to download yahoo messenger to try and fix this and not sure that would work. Thanks.

RichCor Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 A couple of links indicate the old Yahoo! Profile Picture / Avatar system is deprecated, but they still use the old image. But you can update it by "Linking" your Facebook page. Yahoo Answers How can we change our Yahoo Profile picture (2014)? a LoginTips website says you can also do it directly, but only using IE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xircal Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Open an Outlook.com email account and then use the import option to have all your Yahoo mail forwarded to Outlook: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-gb/outlook/yahoo-imap Another advantage is that you can open six alias accounts which are linked to your main Outlook account: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-GB/windows/outlook/add-alias-account Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glassdude007 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 (edited) I was sent to yahoo profile which is inoperable.???? after reading your post and doing some investigating, Seems like YAHOO is not leaving well enough alone AGAIN from https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20150212190029AAgkmYQ This is what we know so far ...........Yahoo Profile (profile.yahoo.com) is going away. But don't worry - your profile picture, nickname, Facebook and Twitter connections, and comments on various Yahoo properties aren’t disappearing! We plan to move relevant settings like your profile pic, nickname, birthday, gender, and connected accounts (Facebook and Twitter) to your account settings. We're simply removing the ability to view public profiles and the “about me” and “my interests” sections. https://help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN25611.html?... so what you got is what it is from the sounds of it.... unless you want mess with the book and or the twitter..... its still free which is good...

samsensam Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 a year or so ago a nigerian man's facebook page became linked to my hotmail account. when people received an e-mail from me it had this guys photo attached. my friends found it funny, people i didnt know so well thought i was nigerian! i tried everything to get rid of it and link my e-mail to my own facebook page - i use a different e-mail address for facebook. nothing worked and then eventually it just stopped happening. dont know what caused it or why it stopped but it was annoying. actually i dont want everything linked together as its harder to control what people see. unlike many younger people who use the internet i value my privacy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
