I am unable to login to my yahoo email, getting redirected to att

Help! I cannot login to my yahoo email. I originally had an att email xxx@att.net, but it was somehow transferred to yahoo. I have had his email address for about 20 years. Lately it has gotten so that I could not use my password and had to reset it using my alternative email/gmail address... I limped along doing that for months, but NOW when I try to log into my account - it go to "forgot my password", then I get redirected to an att page, and my account is not longer attached to att so I have no way to get into my email. I hope someone can help me! Thank you!

Cannot login to my email account on Yahoo  when redirected from yahoo to AT&T. I have a legacy Bell South email address for more than 20 years. I cannot login to my yahoo email address on my computer. I can receive but not send emails from my iPad. This is a common and huge problem with legacy AT&T accounts.

After months of problems, I spent a long time on the phone with AT&T and got my problem resolved. I really appreciate the help they provided, especially because I have done no business with AT&T in many years. They now allow me to use a BellSouth address that they assigned to me, rather than the one I picked myself. In any event, the problem is resolved. One of the problems I encountered was that AT&T locked my account because there were too many unsuccesful attempts to login. I had to get them to take the lock off my account to resolve the problem.

To fix the problem with being unable to send emails on my  iPad, I deleted my account and reloaded it. This resolved the issue.

I am legacy free att.net email customer. I used to be able to use a login yahoo page to get to my att.net accounts. Now that page sends me to an att.net login page where I have to re-enter my id and it has a place for the password..

 

If I login and check email and then then logout to check another att.net account it ignores the new email address and re-logins me to the first account without entering a password. I am blocked from seeing the other account.

 

 I have same problem on chrome and Microsoft edge.

 

 

Anyone know how to overcome this?

Thanks for reaching out @jwp12,

 

We’re glad to help get you back into your email. Since the site keeps remembering and logging you back into the first account, we have a few suggestions to help.

  • In your browser, try opening a private browsing or incognito window and logging in. You can find this option in your web browser’s menu. If this works, try clearing your browser's cookies and cache to solve the problem.
  • Log in from another computer or device if possible. Does it allow you to log in there? If so try rebooting the first computer/device and trying again.

Please let us know the outcome of the above. If further help is needed we’ll be happy to assist.

I have an ameritech.net email address for over 20 plus years. I was able to logged into Yahoo with it but now after I put the email address in, the circle just go round and round for hours. I tried using other computers the same thing. It directs me to att but still it will not let me go any further than the email address.
