How do I edit contact information?

To edit contact information for individuals on your Messenger List:

  1. Right-click on the individual in your Messenger List and select "Contact Details."
  2. Enter or edit the information and click the "Save & Close" button.

Note: Yahoo! Messenger first looks at the "Nickname" field to see if a name is entered. If a nickname is entered, the nickname will be displayed in your Messenger List. If a nickname is not entered, Yahoo! Messenger then looks at the "First/Last Name" fields. If there are no entries in any of these fields, the regular Yahoo! ID will be displayed in your Messenger List.

Where's the Contact Customer Care button? With so many improvements to Messenger since the version you're using (lots more features and reliability), we figured you're ready to move up. So get your upgrade and with the new version, rest assured if you have questions, you’ll find that friendly button on its help pages.
