i have not been able to do the following:
access any of my 10+ years of accumulated contacts in address book. my contact list is now empty
even when i click to "add email to contact list" the system does not do it
I can not attach documents to any of my emails sent via any one of my three hotmail accounts. i get a drop down message that says "We're still setting this up"
This is causing huge issues for me! dont know why you fiddled with hotmail. it was fine the way it was.
That's amazingly clumsy.
Also, when exporting the address book (as a backup/save file), groups get clobbered, and this is in a file designed to be imported back into Outlook.com. Is there a switch I'm overlooking?
Groups were given very poor status in Hotmail and it has continued, most likely as a result of a clumsy user interface. It seems like robustness is a forgotten concept.
How do I remove some of these auto-fill addresses? They are not in my contact list -- I know how to manage that.
I cannot find this under FAQs.
Thanks.
Let me be very clear as similar questions have been asked and the answers given have NOT been the solution.
Please do not answer to change my settings to "Only suggest people in my contact list" because that is not what I am asking and every similar question has been given that answer.
When I start to write an email, the address autocomplete function of Outlook.com will provide addresses that are not in my Contact list.
I want to edit/correct that non-contact list.
I do NOT want to simply change my settings for my autocomplete to only show people from my Contacts, I want to edit that non-contact list and only remove or correct SOME of the entries.
How do I access that list?
Thanks
Halo,
I have strange problem with outlook.com birthday calendar. I want to edit contacts and one of task is to populate birthdays for contacts that does not have one. I added entries into contacts details and when I go to calendar more than half of birthdays are not showing! I try to delete birthday, add again, change to another day... but nothing, no result. Then I use calendar interface to add birthday and added missing birthdays but now I have doubled contacts or some contacts have two "links" to outlook?!?? And for one contact, even birtday is 18.03.xxxx in calendar apear in 18.03.xxxx and 18.04.xxxx and when I try to delete entry I receive error and message say that I should try letter (but letter also not work). Also for one contact I miss spell one letter and I see that in calendar but when I correct contact Name calendar does not accept that changes?!?
So what is wrong with this service? I done everything as in help and results is hmmm, very strange!
So how to delete that unbelievable April entry from birthday calendar? And why entries that entered as contact info, most of them, are not shown in Calendar? And why, why entries added throw Birhtday calendar duplicated contacts (or create new linked contact) if Help said (quote) :
Calendar is connected to your contact list in People
If you add a birthday to a contact in People, the birthday will be added to your calendar.
If you add a birthday in Calendar, and the name you enter matches someone in your contact list, the birthday will be added to their contact.
If you add a birthday in Calendar, and the person isn't in your contact list, they'll be added.
p.s. Also two contacts have anniversary but calendar does not show them. How to show that also?
