Question

My yahoo home page has been coming up the same for a week now. same stories, comics,how do i get it to update?

Answer 1

I refresh my page all the time and never get new stuff.  I believe that Yahoo! has stopped updating the old, good version in order to force people onto the new, bad version.  Lots of people are experiencing this problem.

Answer 2

I have the same problem. I haven't figured out yet how to fix it but if you refresh your page you will get an updated page. I know this is a temporary fix but I hope it helps. Good luck

Answer 3

Yah, refresh doesn't work.  However, if you "upgrade" to the new MyYahoo, you'll get new content there, just not on the old one.  Even after updating and then switching back.  As suspected, this seems to be Yahoo's not-so-subtle way of making people "upgrade" to the slower, more ad-laden MyYahoo.

My solution, I guess, will be to switch to another personalized provider if this continues.

Answer 4

...well OK !!   *** FEEDS ***

I've been frustrated at YaHoo's inability or reluctance to fix this. The solutions suggested just didn't work. 1st off, the "update rate" option is only available on your "My YaHoo" pg. if, or after, you have created a 2nd pg.

Secondly, that still didn't work ... I, like most, had no clue as to where to look in IE (also a YaHoo suggestion) but ... Here It Is :

R.click IE and click Properties

Click 'content tab'

Next to 'Feeds'(bottom) click 'Settings'

Chk. box to "Automatically Chk. for Updates"

Choose how often ... Whallah !!!!!!!!

This worked for me in XP ... I don't know why YaHoo assumes we are all 'geeks'(not bad if U are) and seem unwilling to provide answers per, and specific to ea. Operating System (OS)  :)
