    Because the head of Yahoo is a woman.

    I can't tell you why, but I can tell you that I haven't had notifications working properly for months.   They come and go throughout the day.   I have them about 25% of the time and 75% of the time I get the "Oops" message.

    It is a glitch that has been on here for some time.

    Refresh the page. 99% of the time that clears it up for me, although sometimes it takes 2 or 3 'refreshes' (I just now tried it, and I DID have to refresh 1 time to get Notifications to show up).

    Its working fine for me there seems to be a Bug that's only Happening on some Accounts if yours is not working until Yahoo Fixes it you wont be able to see your Notifications Unfortunately

    I am not able to receive notifications and when I try I get the same 'oops' message. I have come to the conclusion that I was not meant to see notifications and now I do not bother.  Some people on the site are able to receive them so it is a hit and miss facility.

    I have seen several questions/answers about the same thing and some users advise going into your profile and making some changes.  I have tried them all and notifications still do not work for me, so as I said I do not bother.

    It seems to be a problem that only anonymous posters have since that's the only people that keep posting this over and over.

  • The notifications have not been working for weeks and weeks now.
