Iron's support is a joke

Post by VinnyHaw »

So myself and another user have been asking for help for awhile regarding Yahoo login. Not even with the newest update can we access our emails. This is an absolute joke. You're saying we can't use this browser to access one of the MOST USED EMAIL WEBSITES IN THE WORLD???

This isn't our fault, this is a problem of Yahoo Mail. Which is not the only problem of this service:

"Every single Yahoo account was hacked - 3 billion in all"

Please mail their service

It took a month and a half of asking and we finally get something

viewtopic.php?f=18&t=18717

viewtopic.php?f=18&t=19422

viewtopic.php?f=18&t=19601

And step back with that bogus excuse. Yahoo was hacked 4 years ago... and not until iron update 61 did yahoo stop working.

Iron was great... but what's the reason to use it when I have to grab my phone or open chrome to even view emails????

I installed it... clicked on "Chrome Default", but what does this do exactly? I still can't access my email.

I'm sorry, what do you mean by the second part?

Please try to select IE 10.

If that not helps:
Please launch the "Icon Config and Backup Tool" (in the Start Menu or the Portable folder), then go to "UserAgent", delete the string you see and enter:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/62.0.3165.0 Safari/537.36

instead. Then select "Create Shortcut" and launch Iron with this one in the future.

Thank you. IE10 helped.

What exactly did it do?

It fakes the identification of the browser. Yahoo sadly blocks alternative browser (for no reason as you can see)
