Cannot access my.yahoo.com. Says I have done too many redirects.?

Answer 1

I have had the same problem with My Yahoo which is my normal home page since Friday March 4th. I am currently in France and have been accessing, yes, from France! Yesterday I was able to access Yahoo . com but today I am automatically redirected to Yahoo France and I do NOT want Yahoo France. I am still able to use yahoo mail, I hope that does not get messed up too. I am using Win 7 (have not upgraded to W 10 yet - but am glad to see that is not the issue) and using IE 11 so this affecting all users Windows and Mac, all browsers.

Answer 2

I have been having the same problem since Friday, March 4, 2016. I'm using Chrome and can get onto Yahoo's main page and then view my mail, but if I try to get into my.yahoo, I consistently receive the redirect error. My husband's my.yahoo page appears normally with the Edge browser.

Answer 3

Same thing happened to me starting this morning, 3/5/16. I've tried a number of fixits, none work. I have an iMac with Safari. Safari won't open it because of too many redirects. I tried to open it on Chrome, and had the same redirect error message, but it told me how to delete cookies, which I did, and now my.yahoo.com opens on Chrome....but not Safari.

Answer 4

Not just Apple/Safari. I also see it in Chrome 49. Something's broken with the domain as it's redirecting more than 10 times. Safari and Chrome don't like that. Maybe Firefox and Opera don't care. Someone inside Yahoo has to fix it, unless they've already RIF'ed that person.

Answer 5

I have been trying to get on to Yahoo mail now for the last one hour and get the same **** as everyone else. Says I have been doing too many redirects?? What does that mean??? I thought it was my computer so I cleaned it up and still the same problem.

Answer 6

I can get in to general Yahoo.com page. Shows my icon and mail. When going to search engine for "my yahoo" the page provides the ability to click on my yahoo.com but same, too many redirects, error message comes up. This has to be a Yahoo issue.

Answer 7

Yahoo's server setup seems to be in a state of general collapse. Firefox says it "can't find server" more often than not, even going back to home page that connected a minute ago. What would be a good alternate for an internet gateway, besides Google?

Answer 8

On IE, my.yahoo.com "can't be displayed." On Chrome, "too many redirects." Been happening for a couple of days now. I can get to my mail by going to plain yahoo.com (not MY.yahoo.com), and clicking the Mail icon up top. But it's weird and annoying not to be able to be able to get to the homepage I've set up.

Answer 9

Same issue in the US. Just started a day or two ago. I thought maybe it is a virus so I am running a full scan but it sounds like a Yahoo server issue. I can get to my.yahoo in IE today but not Firefox.

Answer 10

Same here using a Chrome browser. It works when I open Internet Explorer (or whatever it's called on Windows 10).
