No clue.  Could be Yahoo's recent server issues and migration to new server
farms.  Could be the Beta version.  I'm not a Mac user so maybe one of the
other Mac users might offer some kind of technical reason that your computer
could be the cause, but I doubt that it's your computer. 

Personally, I find Yahoo Messenger to be buggy enough in an established
version that I would never use a Beta version.  I do regularly Beta test
lots of other programs but Yahoo simply doesn't provide any support to Beta
testers, at least not that I've ever seen, whereas other software companies
have special forums and tech support resources when Beta testing their
software.... which is why you are here rather than at an actual Yahoo Tech
Supported forum for Beta users... they don't exist.  

I like Yahoo Messenger and use it often but the tech support simply does not
exist.  At least with most other free software, everything from Firewalls to
AV and Anti-Malware programs, they at least set up official user support
forums for their products.  With Yahoo, it took users to set up this Yahoo
Group and other forums in order for folks to get some help... but rarely do
we hear from an actual Yahoo Messenger Tech Support person.. if ever.

If the last non-Beta version was working for you, you should use it.

Subject: [Y!M] unable to log in

mac OS X v 10.4.11
I have two accounts.  On messenger v 2.53 I am able to log in to either
account.
On v 3beta I am able to log in only with one of the two.  Previous to Friday
on v 3beta I could log in to either account. On the v3 that I am not able to
log in it the wheel just continues to spin (with my pic icon showing) but
will never complete the log in.
What cause this and what is the solution?
