On November 1, 2013, I stopped receiving emails on my hotmail account. I can still send out but cannot receive. Any help would be great.

Hi,


I have an old Live.com e-mail address and back a few years ago, I was given 25GB free in my SkyDrive by Microsoft.

I recently signed-up for a new Outlook.com e-mail address for my family and didn't realize that I could have just renamed or created an alias of my family e-mail address on my old Live.com account with 25GB of SkyDrive room.


I would like to know how to transfer my new family Outlook.com e-mail address to my old Live.com e-mail address so that I can take advantage of the 25GB on my SkyDrive as opposed to the standard 7GB I got with my new Outlook.com e-mail address.


Can someone help me out?


Thanks!

Can someone help me, almost daily my email acct (junk mail) receiving emails from people advertising 'ladies' or '****' etc. Some emails come disguised as being from someone you know that you open them and the are quite explicit about the services they offer others just state their intent on the subject line. I have tried using manage rules which worked in the beginning but who ever is sending them is getting a little more crafty and the manage rules is no longer able to stop them. This is really starting to stress me out as our email acct is used by the whole family - kids included and is only a matter of time before my kids are going to open one of these emails. I'm actually at the point now where I am going to shut down my email account because I am so feed up with getting these emails. Does anyone have any ideas on how to stop them?

I accidently deleted an email I need from my deleted file.  How can I retrieve it?

 

Since updating to IE11 I can no longer access my emails; ie delete, reply etc : I can view them but that is all. However I have normal use when accessing via Windows live mail.
After an upgrade to 8.1 my SkyDrive desktop app is gone. I couldn't find any way to download a classic Win32 app on my Windows 8.1 and don't want to use a Microsoft account to log into my computer as earlier suggested in these forums. Is there any workaround to use SkyDrive with local account on Windows 8.1?
I do NOT want SkyDrive to synch ALL my files (bandwith and privacy), I just want to use a local account and synch files selectively since apps on my machine create large files (10-30Gb) that are stored in user directories. SkyDrive will not be able to upload them as well and I do not want to manually "make files from online-only to offline state",  referring "to this link" (as suggested by MS engineer earlier).
To add details - I use full (NOT RT) version of Windows with primarily DESKTOP applications that NEED TO and WILL save files on the hard drive of my computer. My laptop does NOT support touch interface so Metro apps are in most part useless to me. And I do not want touch interface on my laptop.
 The vendor of the software confirmed there are no plans to make those apps use Metro UI.
I can't switch to or merge my local account (and I don't want to either) with a MS account for security and privacy reasons. Any advice?

What's going on? I can't select anything in any of the boxes on the left of the emails or get any of the emails to show in the viewing pane

Hi, I've just got a new laptop and didn't realise that outlook was the same as Hotmail which means I set up a new account as part of the laptop set up.  Should I try to merge these accounts?  What is the benefit to having my emails linked?  Is it a good idea to have a new account to avoid junk mail? 

 

I believe I can get the 2 accounts to send information one to the other but  don't fully understand the options to know which is the best one to choose. I also have a gmail account - to say I am unclear what to do is an understatement....

 

Can anyone advise me (and offer step by step instructions on how to achieve the best outcome?)

Thanks!!  H

I want to use outlook for my custom domain, but domain name contains Polish diacritic characters. I have tried both versions of IRI and URI.
With IRI (sołtysik.net.pl) I see error message like this: We don't recognize this as a valid domain name.
and with URI (xn--sotysik-ojb.net.pl): This domain name can't be used because it contains a protected word or inappropriate language. Please contact support if you feel this is not the case.

It is my private domain, not for comercial use.

Can you help me with this?
