Y!Amp Help / F.A.Q.
Q.
It’s not showing numbers in the artists’ names!
A.
This issue has been fixed. Please download the latest version of Y!Amp.
Q.
In Windows Vista, when I click “Save” after changing any settings under status settings, I get a “Run-Time error ’70′: Permission Denied message and the program closes. How do I fix this?
A.
Right-click on Y!Amp.exe, and select “Run as Administrator”. Now you should be able to save your settings. If you don’t want to have to select that everytime you want to save a setting, you can right-click on Y!Amp.exe, go to Properties, Compatability, and check off “Run this program as an administrator”.
Q.
Why is it not working right? My status changes to other things, like old statuses and songs I’m not listening to right now!
A.
You must have “Remember my ID & Password” checked before you log in, or else Y!Amp can’t see what ID your on so it can change your status. If that still doesn’t fix the program, upgrade to the newest messenger
Q.
Why can’t I put a URL and the headphones icon together?
A.
When you put the headphones icon next to your name, Yahoo! Messenger thinks you’re actually listening to Shoutcast radio, and attempts to make it a link to the song you’re listening to. Therefore, any link you put will be rendered obsolete.
Q.
I can’t see the icon next to my status, I just see weird symbols and numbers.
A.
You won’t see the icon on your status menu, but try adding yourself to your own list to see what your status is actually coming out as to others.
Q.
How do I add a custom message before & after the song title and artist?
A.
Click the button on Y!Amp with the menu icon, then go to options and type it there.
Be sure to click save instead of clicking the X.
Q.
How do I uninstall Y!Amp?
A.
Make sure Y!Amp isn’t running first, then simply go to the location you extracted Y!Amp to when you first downloaded the program. It is usually something like c:\my documents\downloads\yampm6. Delete that folder and Y!Amp is uninstalled. You may also delete the .zip of it as well if you don’t want it on your system at all.
Q.
It says you can now drag the interface, but I don’t understand how?
A.
All you have to do is click around the song title/artist and drag it down or right. You will notice the program kind of latches onto the side of your screen that it’s closest to :).
