I tried "authenticate with yahoo" and that throws error.

"authenticate with google" worked but when i tried "Import Google
Contacts" next I got errors.

Are those known problems?

What errors are you getting? Some months ago i had some problems importing Google Contacts and solved it so maybe this thread helps:

Are BBAUTH_APP_ID and BBAUTH_SHARED_SECRET in your settings.py or
local_settings.py ?

When I tried to "import Google Contact" I got:
NonAuthSubToken at /invitations/contacts/


When I tried "authenticate with Yahoo", I got:
AttributeError at /bbauth/login/
'Settings' object has no attribute 'BBAUTH_APP_ID'


Then I tried "import Google Contact" again and I got a different
error:
KeyError at /invitations/contacts/
authsub_token

I don't have BBAUTH_APP_ID or BBAUTH_SHARED_SECRET in my settings.py
and I don't have a local_settings.py. I just cloned a social_project
and hacen't really changed anything in settings.py.

I just ran the development server on localhost, wanting to try out the
features. Was that causing the errors?

About import google, Eric has told you how to solve the problem.
About import yahoo, you need to signup your application at yahoo.
Search "yahoo bbauth api". Then you will get the bbauth app id and
secret key from yahoo. And you need to put them in yout settings.py

BBAUTH_APP_ID = 'your app id'
BBAUTH_SHARED_SECRET = 'your secret key'
