    There are several fixes for this depending on the problem

    1. Just refresh the page.

    2. Log off Yahoo, clean cache, temp, cookie files from the system and reboot.

    3. If on mobile, switch to Desktop mode.

    4. Click the change/submit button 2-3 times, not just once.

    5. Update Java/Flash if needed.

    This has happened every once in a while with me. Do i just close me browser and then restart my browser. That works most of the time. If that does not, I usually run a system cleaner to get rid of junk, attacks, trojan attempts viruses registry errors etc then reboot and I am good to go.

    I have several system cleaners. Search & Destroy, Malwarebytes, Crap Cleaner and I use Avast anti virus. But I only have Avast active at all times.

    I've noticed having to click on the submit button a few times before it works.

    Just got on here but I notice the same thing. I had some go through but I have to wait and refresh and then try again. Aggravating!

    You got through now. I have been answering off and on for several hours with no problems.

    If they don't like your answer than it won't go through. You need to answer it how they want you to answer it. If your answer isn't they same as theirs they will consider it the wrong answer. It sucks but it's yahoo.

    Dunno, sometimes my submit button isn't there. I only realise once I have typed my answer, reloading the question works for me. My edit button will change colour but not open any options, does edit work for you?
