Flickr user locked out of accounts, get Yahoo error message![]() September 12, 2012 - 16:31 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Many Flickr users appeared to be locked out of their accounts and were getting a Yahoo error message when they tried to submit their details, The Next Web reports. Along with the log in errors, attempts to contact Flickr via its site also returned the same message. The response from users varied from the informative to the panicky – but as the Internet goes, this is to be expected when any service faces a glitch. Meanwhile, visitors to the Flickr site were still able to browse images, but of course with no means to log in, favoring, commenting and the usual account activities were not accessible. Attempts to log in via Facebook or Google were also not working, TNW says.

The number of new smartphones delivered with Android jumped to 162.1 million in the first three months in 2013. “We believe Samsung generates more revenue and profit from the Android platform than Google does,” Neil Mawston said. The service now also makes it easier for users to add new contacts sent to them by friends, and has support for Simplified Chinese. Partner news |
