Contacts –> Select Contact –> General Tab –> Plus Sign Distorted

20. October 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: , , , , , , ,
Hi All.

When following the steps above to view a contact, the plus signs where you add additional emails or phone numbers are distorted. I'm using a MacBook Retina and am on v 14.2.4.

If anyone has any pointers on how to sort this out, it'd be much appreciated.

It's not a big deal, just being a bit OCD!

Thanks in advance.

Screengrab here.

Distorted or jumbled mailbox? Page is mixed up and blue?

09. September 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: , , , , , ,

Some users have reported the following problems in the last few days in the forums. The problems are -

  • Distorted Mail box
  • Everything seems jumbled
  • Page is mixed up and blue
  • hotmail format has changed
  • hotmail is not loading properly
  • message appears at bottom of the page

Microsoft Hotmail team made some fixes on Friday 7th Sept and believes these issue should not exist anymore.

Some users of Hotmail have reported the following workaround for for them:

  1. Log into Hotmail
  2. Navigate to your Inbox
  3. In the upper right corner of the page, select Options and More options…
  4. Under the Customizing Hotmail section select Advanced privacy settings
  5. Under the Using HTTPS for Extra Security section select Go to HTTPS settings
  6. Sign in with your Live ID if prompted
  7. You should now be on a page titled Connect with HTTPS. Click the button to enable “Use HTTPS automatically (please see the note above)”
  8. Click the Save button and you will be returned to your Inbox.

Note: The above workaround doesn't apply to Outlook.com as Outlook.com defaults to HTTPS (even if you chose to be defaulted to HTTP, Outlook.com will default you to HTTPS only. Its all good, HTTPS is better!)
