I use Yahoo IM. How do I turn off text messages when I am logged out or in? I get 2 msges when loggedinorout

Question

Everytime Yahoo IM is logged out or in I get a text message on my cell phone. I want the mobile Yahoo to get text messages from friends. But I don't need a text message everytime I go idle. I have tried turning off all notifications and I never get the text message to enter the code. I have tried this at least 5 times in the past week.

Answer 1

Hey good with this one I had the same problem too & many more with texting others on my cell/p. I had to have a friend to sign me into my own yahoo mesenger b/c I had to get rid of my NET connection to just stay online for a month or more. & texting can start to be a pain in the (A double S).

If "Always sign into my mobile device when I exit messenger" is unchecked in preferences, you'll have to delete your cp from their records. That's how I stopped mine. It's just a PITA and people can enter your number manually.
