We'll have to wait for an admin for this, us mods can't do it.

I am able to change my email address are you sure you done it correctly?

Go to control panel and search for change email and password. Follow the instructions there, you need to type in your password first.

That's bizarre - I'm sure I replied to this just after it was posted but my response seems to have vanished into the ether.

Anyway, what I said was the yahoo addy you have provided is, indeed, associated with another DaniWeb member (who joined on June 30th 2011) which is why you are unable to use it.

Perhaps you created more than one account?

now please change and send me a reponce over my yahoo ID.

We can't because (as happygeek said) the address is already used by another member.

@Happygeek: Was that account already used/verified?

Read first, post later.

What exactly is wrong with my first post above?

In the first instance please send me an email, from your yahoo.com account, to happygeek@daniwebmail.com to confirm that the yahoo account is yours.


@Happygeek: Was that account already used/verified?

The account is showing as registered rather than awaiting email confirmation, which rather suggests it was set up by someone with access to the yahoo.com email account in question...

It is another example of you trying to act like a moderator/admin when you are not, I'm afraid to say. The OP was asking for specific help from the mods/admins and you jumped in with a response which was not helpful and did not address the actual question.

If you re-read the original question then hopefully you will see why this is so.

Email send, check it happy geek...

Your email has been received, I am now awaiting a response from the other member concerned before taking any further action.

Found the person who was using my ID...... Thanx it solved.
