How can i de-link a computer and halt the syncing on data?

28. October 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: computer, sync data

I use Skydrive to sync data between several computers, on of which I have recently lost.

I am worried about my data, if somebody has found that computer and managed to get into it. DropBox gives me the option to unlink any device connected to and syncing my data from the web interface. For Skydrive I have not found such a functionality - is there any?

Of course I have immediately changed my Skydrive password, but I am not sure whether this will solve the issue.

Can anybody help?

Outlook Repair

28. October 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: computer, Outlook, quick fix

Every single time I turn on my computer, I am getting the message that Outlook needs to be repaired. Why is this? I usually do a quick fix, but then have to re-fix it the next time I turn on the computer. I did the whole fix one time, and it wiped out all of my microsoft products and I had to have them re-installed. Does anybody have a suggestion for fixing this? Thx.

Office (calandar & others) sync from my computer to my phone

Re: Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2013

I have windows 8 on my computer with all my calendar information. I recently got a windows 8 phone. Love it. Most everything set up quickly and easily except office. I'm using the same Microsoft account on the computer and phone. I was able to get the phone to download the e-mail to my phone, but had to set it up manually as a pop account (for an @cox.net e-mail account). Now I can't figure out how to get the other office software to sync to the phone. It must be something simple, but have not found where or how to do that.

Receiving frequent pop up messages on the computer to update or add profile to Outlook

26. October 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: computer, microsoft office 2010, Outlook

I have continued using my Hotmail through Microsoft Office 2010 Outlook on my computer and with sync to my Android Bionic. I never responded to the Outlook.com changes. I now receive annoying, frequent pop up messages on my computer to update or add a profile to my Outlook through my Windows control panel. I also receive popup error messages on my smartphone. The mail still comes through and works as it always did. But, what do I do about the popup errors -- the profile on MS Outlook is correct. Must I to pay attention to Outlook.com? I don't understand the relationships. Thanks

Outlook.Com Conversion Issues

25. October 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: computer, personal folders

Recently I was using my computer for functions other than email and suddenly the migration to Outlook.com auto started and during the process;

1. My contacts were moved successfully.

2. However, all of my emails stored in personal folders on my computer disappeared but all of the folder names remain in MSN Explorer just no detail. Over in Outlook.com none of the detail is visable and none of the folders were moved over.

This is a serious problem for me since I have/had a lot of historical and personal information stored there.

Can you tell me were they all went or where they are stored on my computer?

3. Also I wanted finish what I assume was supposed to be a totally automatic conversion and set Outlook.com as my primary email source but have been hesitant until the above issues are resolved. Is there a process for this. I am a long time MSN Premium subscriber.

4. Once Outlook.com was activated, MSN Mail no longer allows any email to be sent and if it is attempted, the application will abend.

I look forward to resolving these issues.

Corrupted e-mails on the server

22. October 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: computer, server problem

When checking the same Outlook.com account on 2 different locations using Outlook 2013 in both:

Some e-mails will show in one computer and in the same account in another computer doesn't receive those e-mails.

When I set up the account freshly, he downloads all e-mails properly from Outlook.com so number of emails in Outlook.com and Outlook 2013 are the same. After a few days some e-mails are missing in Outlook 2013 but show on Outlook.com

Seems to be some sort of server synchronization problem. I've had this posted in Outlook 2013 forums but they said it is a server problem, probably some e-mails on the server are corrupted and this causes problems with Outlook 2013.

Skydrive synch W8.1 vs Vista

21. October 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: computer, SkyDrive

OK, I've read a lot of comment about Skydrive synch and none seem to address my simple problem.

I have two computers - a windows 8.1 desktop and a windows vista laptop. I have skydrive installed on each box. I've been using it successfully for months - until I updated to 8.1.

Here's what I expect: when I update a file on either computer, I expect that updated file to appear on the other computer. Pretty simply - and it has always worked that way. Now, with the 8.1 update, the data doesn't transfer from one to the other. In additon, when I update a file on the W8.1 computer, the update doesn't appear on the web version of skydrive.

Something appears to have changed under W8.1 and it doesn't appear to have changed for the best.

Do I have to return to Google drive to get the rather simple functionality that I've experienced with Skydrive but thqt has disappeared???

Windows Live Mail: Centralized, Network email storage for multiple PCs

19. October 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: computer, Windows Live Mail

Hi Everyone,

I have 12 computers in my network, all using Windows Live Mail to send and receive emails with same set of email accounts configured on each computer. Instead of getting each computer receiving email from internet, I want to have a centralized email storage network location, where one computer will be syncing to server and storing all emails to that location and all other computers connected to the same location. This is beneficial because:

I will be having a local copy of all the emails in one location.
Emails will be downloaded once, and in case adding or replacing a new PC, there will be no need to download all emails again, hence reducing bandwidth usage both on user end and email server end.

I would appreciate if someone would come up with a solution or an alternative AT NO EXTRA COST!

Looking forward to hear from you all...

FS not blocking game-related websites

17. October 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: children, computer, FS

I have set up family safety on 4 different computers for different children. I have set the web filtering to "allow list only" and have blocked everything save for about 10 websites. On 3 of the computers it is now working properly. But on the fourth computer (running Windows 7 Home Premium) it is working for regular websites. But for some reason it is allowing my son to access (what appears to be) any game-related website.
If I go to a news website (i.e. cnn) or even google.com, it is blocked. But if I go to any url that has "game" in it, it allows it, i.e. gamestop.com or games.yahoo.com.
Additionally, these "gaming" websites that it is allowing do NOT appear AT ALL in the reporting on the FS website. They do not appear on the web activity report at all, not as allowed, not as blocked - nothing! As far as FS is concerned, there is no log whatsoever, they simply disappear into thin air after they are visited.
The only thing I have been able to do for this user is add all the known game-related websites to a blacklist (blocked) and then he is indeed prevented from going there. But I cannot forever keep up with the new websites of this category that he will find.
I have all 4 computers set to the exact same settings in FS (apply to all children), but this problem only exists on one computer.
I have also done the following: Deleted User and created new user to which I have applied the same settings as other children. Still same problem persists on that PC with the new user.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated as I cannot keep up with this. If I cannot get this resolved we will have to look into other parental control options, as our children are on the computer most of the day for school and I cannot afford to have him playing games online.
Any advice to resolve this would be greatly appreciated.
