      @leocg I contacted Opera tech support. They responded with the standard request for version #, operating system, screenshots, etc., so we'll see if they can hopefully find an answer.

            Thank you for letting me know. Right now firefox still has my contacts, for how long, good question. Something weird is going on. Have used Yahoo for so long and never had this issue. Basic on opera still has contacts for now.

              @countrygirl1411 Got Firefox back by disabling "Price Blink" extension. No such luck with Opera.

                I have used Opera for many years. I have switched to Chrome at least it works properly.

                  @zman2855 I started having the exact same problems with my Yahoo mail contacts, a couple of daus ago. Even if I switch to the basic mode, my contacts are gone. If I use any other browser, it works fine, just IOpera has caused my contacts to disappear. I can't add contacts either. Very weird!

                    @marcoangels I had disabled the ad block on yahoo as it was that or basic. I just disabled the tracker blocking and my address book is back. Don't like disabling that that is for sure.

                      @countrygirl1411 I've disabled everything and the only way to get my contacts is to switch back to Yahoo Basic mail. No word back yet for Support.

                          @zman2855 Hmmm, mine is back in non basic. Even in basic with the tracer on I did not have address book on opera. Strange.

                            @countrygirl1411 I did. All blockers, trackers, extensions, etc. and it's a no go unless I switch to basic. Would be nice if Opera had a Safe Mode, but no such luck.

                              Had the same issue as the rest of you. Couldn't see, create or import contacts in Opera browser. Disabled block tracking in Opera security settings and all back to normal.

                                  Thank you for your suggestion! I unblocked trackers and my contacts re-appeared! Good job!

                                        Had exactly the same problem (no Contacts appearing in Yahoo -- seemed to work fine in other browsers.
                                        So along with the rest of you I disabled "Block Trackers" in Opera and everything back to normal again. Good catch ! Thanks

                                        Wondering the practical consequence of disabling "Block Trackers" ? Does Opera support know of the problem it is causing ? Was just about to abandon Opera for another browser. Glad this worked out OK.

                                          @countrygirl1411 I thought I was following you, but when @jacie added the screenshot, the light came on for me. Thanks.

                                            Since "Block Tracking" probably adds some value, I suppose you could leave in turned on and add Yahoo to the "Exception List". Best of both worlds.

                                            Anyone tried this?
