Apparently there is an answer to this question, but the link does not work.

I had changed the password on my Windows Live Mail sign-in but now have problems signing in to Windows Live Mail so went through a process where a security code was sent, I typed it, and my password seems to be working. But each time I bring up Live Mail it asks for my password and tells me it's incorrect.

Meanwhile, I guess because of it, I am not getting my calendar reminders. My Windows Mail downloads but no calendar reminders.

[Moved from Windows]

I am trying to use calendar reminders in windows live mail program, I enter a reminder in the calendar but it does not remind me, what am I doing wrong? 

Starting this morning, I stopped receiving email alerts for calendar reminders.  I have had this issue many times in the past and MS did somthing on thier side to fix it.  I do not know what.

 

However, for troubleshooting purposes, I have done:

  • Verified that the email reminders is set up on the appointments.
  • verified that the default email address for the appointmetns is set.
  • I have made no changed.
  • No alerts are showing in my junk folder either.

 

thanks!

 

The calendar reminders on my Outlook calendar are not being sent to my hotmail e-mail.  Until this morning, this function was working fine.  I have followed suggestions found on the "Community":  Made sure that the box on "notification" is checked,  I don't know why it wasn't listed, so I added my e-address to safe senders.  (I sent myself an e-mail from and to my e-address BEFORE I did this and it went through, so even if my e-address wasn't listed as safe before, messages were still getting through.)  Any other suggestions?
How do I stop getting other people's calendar reminders? 
My calendar reminders are no longer working in live mail.  All I know I've done is install a lot of updates. When I look at my calendar and try to add an event, the reminder icon where the little bell is at the top of the page isn't highlighted so I can't click on it.
