  1. Address book has stopped working

    Address book has stopped working. If I add a contact, when I hit save and then search for it, it's not there. Auto-suggestions no longer show my recent contacts even with that setting turned on, and if I connect to an external account to import, nothing happens. It seems my contact list is totally frozen and I'm unable to alter it.

  2. Delete entire list of contacts and the ability to merge contacts into one contact.

    There are times when you might want or need to delete all of the contacts and start with a fresh list of contacts. We need a way to delete the complete contact list so we can input a new list from another source. Deleting one contact at a time takes too long. Also, we need to be able to merge two or three contacts into one.

  4. contact

    Give me the option to default the contact list to Last name first. Don't auto default to First name and then have me change it each and every time.

  5. Want to remove all contacts

    Imported an ancient COX.NET contact list. Need to start all over. But first I need to delete ALL contacts from YAHOO.com. How do I do that without deleting one at a time (would take a month to do)?

  7. autofill

    Autofill double dropdown lists

    Since 3 days ago, the email address field will show 2 dropdown lists: the password autofill which overlays usual contact list. It is a bother since I now have to keep tapping esc to close the password autofill each time I want to input a new email address. Kindly fix. Thanks

  9. Yahoo will not let me create an email list and add contacts to it.

    Yahoo will not let me create a new list, delete old lists or add contacts to a new list. What gives?

  10. Dissapearing

    I will add a contact and the next time I hover over their contact, it is the same. It doesn't say Edit Contact as other do so I have to add it again.

  11. Do not add contacts w/o consent

    Years ago I cleaned out my contacts and ceased adding any because of fallout from bots getting into my contact list and sending spam out under my name. I ran afoul of one of these bots yesterday and found that there was a spam e-mail being sent because, unbeknownst to me, Yahoo had been adding contacts to my list. I did not ask that this be done and certainly did not consent to it. If I want a contact added, I will add it. Some of those added, fortunately, were one-off, temp addresses (such a Craig's list responses, which I…

  12. Delete multiple contacts at once.

    I want to delete multiple contacts at once from my email. I have way to many contacts to delete one at a time. Please set this feature up and send an email that it is done. I would think this was already a tool that would be set up. But I have been told it is not. I think with the IT people Yahoo has it would be rather simple. Thank you in advance!

    Hi, sadly we can't assist with Gmail addresses. For this one it's best if you contact Google support.

  16. Leave the lists alone

    Leave the lists alone. If i add someone to a list I expect them to always be there until I remove them. You are randomly booting people from my lists and its been happening for years. It's maddening.

  18. Sort out adding contacts problem!

    Please make it possible to add contacts for flips' sake! I can only add a name, no address and hovering over contact card doesn't work either. I can't add further information after creating a new contacct, only first and middle names

  19. Export only a specific Contract List, Not "All" Contacts

    Why is there no option to export (or import) a specific contact list, instead of the entire list of all contacts???? I only want a specific named and created list from within my entire list of contacts.

  20. They are marked with a blue dot, are they a security risk?

    Are these sent emails that I did not send a Hack?
