Supported Browsers
Description
This article explains which browsers are supported when accessing any Yahoo! property.
Resolution
Yahoo! works best with current versions of Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, and Safari (Mac). Please note that we currently do not support "beta" versions of the browsers. Users of non-supported browsers may find that some functions of Yahoo! do not work properly. We highly recommend downloading a supported browser for the full Yahoo! experience.
If you are unsure of which browser version you have, select your browser's Help | About. A window opens showing your browser's name followed by the version number. Yahoo! supports the following browsers:
Windows:
- IE 7.0 and newer
- Firefox version 3.0 and newer
- Google Chrome version 10.0 and newer
- Opera 9.5
Mac:
- Firefox version 3.0 and newer
- Safari version 3.1 and newer
- Google Chrome version 10.0 and newer
Note: Although Yahoo! supports all browsers listed above, we always recommend that you upgrade to the latest version for the optimal experience. Two reasons to upgrade:
- Faster Speed - Newer browsers are faster than ever.
- Safer Protection - Viruses and spyware don't stand a chance.
You can download the latest versions of each below:
