Answer 1

Yahoo shut their stock api down.

Answer 2

You can get live data using the yahoo_fin package. Its documentation is here: http://theautomatic.net/yahoo_fin-documentation/. You'll mainly need two functions from it -- get_data, and get_quote_table.
If you want live prices, you can do this:
from yahoo_fin.stock_info import get_data, get_quote_table
# get current price for Apple's stock
get_data("AAPL").close[-1]
Running the above code during the trading day will get you the current live price.
If you want other information, like what's available on the quote page (e.g. https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/AAPL?p=AAPL), you can use the get_quote_table function:
get_quote_table("AAPL")
So you just need to replace "AAPL" with whatever ticker symbols you want.
The yahoo_fin package also has functions to get ticker lists from the S&P, NASDAQ, and Dow -- so if you want to pull all the data for those, you can just loop the ticker lists those functions return.
from yahoo_fin.stock_info import tickers_dow
# get all Dow tickers
dow_tickers = tickers_dow()
# get price data for Dow stocks
dow_data = {ticker : get_data(ticker) for ticker in dow_tickers}
