Guys,

I have the exact same problem, It says I have reached the limit for custom folders. So frustrating. How can I change this?
 
Split from this thread.

I've always viewed by hotmail via Outlook but now there's something wrong with the account.  It will not retain or accept my password (even though I check the save box).  I've tested my password several times in the regular web view of Hotmail/Outlook.com and it's correct.  I've also tried deleting the hotmail file from Outlook and re-loaded it, thinking that an old password is somehow being stored somewhere.  Is there a registry setting somewhere that I can reset?

 

Is there a tech support that I can call?  Any suggestions would be appreciated.    thanks

 

I'm just picking up Skydrive, moving on from ZOHO Docs.  I would like to know with the free initial 7GB account (before we start paying).  Are there any limits on how many people can edit an Excel spreadsheet at the same time?  Could we assign say 10 users to edit/share the same spreadsheet without any problems or limitations with the free account?
I just ran a windows update using Windows 8.1. I am a University student and I was writing a paper, so before restarting I EXPLICITLY saved the document and closed Word (no warning was given saying I was closing an unsaved document). After I restarted and re-opened my paper to finish writing, word said something to the extent of, "Your files failed to sync, do you want to load the internet version or the local version". Knowing that I EXPLICITLY saved the document I selected Local version.

Now I'm staring at a blank document. I've lost my entire paper, and I'm reasonably certain that there is nothing that can be done about it. Microsoft you get an F- for this. Skydrive is unstable, and deletes documents...this shouldn't happen.

If there is another method of recovering my document I'd like to know, but after two hours of searching I have found nothing and I have to start re-writing my paper..

Thank you Microsoft

Sincerely,
A pissed off subscriber 
I place a file that was names too long in one of my Skydrive folders.  I get an error saying that it can't download the file because it is too long and instructing me to rename the file or move it.  I have done both, but Skydrive is stuck trying to download the file and will not sync anything in the mean time.  I have completely deleted the file online and on my hard drive.  Does anyone know how to reset skydrive?

Hey Guru's,


We recently migrated a client to Skydive; Their workstations are all Windows 7 Pro. We installed the desktop app to sync all their documents and files across several computers;


When they open a document via Windows Explorer, and choose to SAVE AS in Word (this happens in excel too I believe), no matter what I do, Word contacts a web server and the saving process takes anything up to 2 minutes to complete, during which time Word is "not responding"


How can I configure things such that Word always simply saves the document to the local Skydive folder on C:\ and lets the desktop app worry about syncing it.



I'm trying to add a send/receive external account to outlook.com. I can access the pop3 mail box of my
external email account successfully. However when I try to configure the smtp server I get the
above error message. The server settings I am using work fine in windows live mail 2012 and
also mozilla thunderbird and previously did with outlook express and windows mail.
 If I try to import the settings from live mail, the settings displayed are correct, but I still get the
same error.

Judging from the plethora of hits I find relating to this or a similar issue this has to be an
Outlook.com problem. The only solutions offered seem to be requests to try Live Mail to
see if that works with the same settings. Well it does just fine. So how can we progress to a solution ?
