Tips for chatting with Yahoo! ® Messenger:

Before you start chatting, check the Hands Free box in the Voice Conference window to indicate that you are using a headset. If you do not do this you have to use your mouse to hold down the Talk button when chatting. Refer to the Help for Yahoo! ® Messenger for more information.

If you or your contact receive a message saying that you are not authorized to join a conference, this may be because Yahoo! ® Messenger has timed out. To be able to join the conference click OK to close the message, then click Voice Off followed by Voice in the Voice Conference window.
