Conversations are one-on-one chat sessions you have with your online friends. With Yahoo! Messenger, you can have up to 10 online conversations going at the same time. To send a message to one of your friends, follow the instructions below.

1. From the Jump screen, select the Instant Messaging category. From the second-level Jump ring, select Yahoo! Messenger. The Sign In screen appears.
   
2. Sign in to Yahoo!
   
3. From the Friends List screen, you can start a conversation screen in either of two ways:
   
   
   • Method 1: Scroll to highlight the Yahoo! ID of the friend with whom you want to have a conversation, then press the TRACKBALL. A conversation screen opens.
     
     Tip: If you have a long Friends List, to find a friend's Yahoo! ID quickly, start typing the first few characters of the friend's Yahoo! ID and the auto-find feature will highlight the closest matching Yahoo! ID.
     
     
   • Method 2: Press MENU then select Send IM [ M]. The Send Instant Message dialog box opens.
     
     In the Send to text field, type the Yahoo! ID of the friend you want to message. You can also open the pop-up menu and select a Yahoo! ID (all your friends are listed there). Select Start Conversation . A conversation screen with this friend opens with your initial message showing.
     
4. You use the lower pane of the conversation screen to type your messages.
   
   Note: If you send a message and it appears in the top pane in italic, this indicates that you've been temporarily disconnected from the Yahoo! Messenger service. You will be reconnected automatically as soon as possible, at which time your message will appear in regular font, not italic.
   
5. To end a conversation, press MENU then select End Conversation .
   

Tip: If you want to nd all your conversations at once, simply return to the Friends List screen and press SHIFT + CANCEL .
