this signals that you've entered a password and Yahoo ID combination that doesn't match what's on record.

If your password contains numbers or letters, make sure that your caps lock or number lockkeys are activated as needed.

Take a look at your browser's auto-fill settings. If your browser usually enters your password for you automatically 

and you've changed your password recently, you'll need to enter your new password manually to override your browser settings. 

If you're sure that you're entering the correct information, this could be a sign that someone else accessed your account and changed your password. 

Change your password immediately using the Password Helper tool. Once you regain access to your account, 

review the steps to secure a hacked account to undo any changes made without your knowledge.
