Windows Live Mail: syncing read/unread and deleting messages across two computers using POP3

26. August 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: , , , , ,

I've WLM 2012 installed on two computers for accessing the same e-mail account using POP3. When I read an e-mail on one computer the message turns from bold type to normal type to indicate it's been read, but it remains in bold on the other computer until it's read on that machine. Also, when I delete either a read or unread message on one computer I also have to delete the message a second time on the other computer. Is there a way where what I do on one computer, under the POP3 protocol is mirrored on the other computer ? Does Skydrive provide this sort of functionality (I'm not particularly interested in storing files) ?

 

Many thanks

Keyboard freezes while typing

I have a user running Outlook 2011 and Mountain Lion.  He was recently upgraded to a new MacBook Air from a MacBook Pro.  He'll be typing in Outlook or Word and the keyboard will randomly freeze up.  He doesn't notice it because he looks at his fingers when he types.  This apparently was happening on his MBP (Snow Leopard 10.6.8) as well.  It appears to only happen using Office 2008, specifically Word and Outlook.  I'm not sure what preference was carried over from the old machine that may be causing this.  Has anyone else had this issue?

Just installed WLM on my Vista machine and I can't access the Public, Private, and Limited privacy settings.

New Machine with win7, 64bit, 1-SSD (C:) and 1-HDD (D:). The 1st user is running on WLMail (WLM). I would like to have a second WLMail client application running on the system for a 2nd user, so that both users don't have to run/share on the same client. We shared OE on the old computer and would now like our own, separate email client, but on this same computer.  Password/security is not an issue on each client.  Can I do this with WLM ??  

 

Thanks .........  Ron

All my messages, contacts, etc. disappeared between shutting the computer down and turning it on. I need to take an identity saved on Time Machine and make it it my new identity for Outlook. I am totally at a loss and panicked that I've lost all my information in Outlook 2011.

Outlook won’t open in MAC 10.7.4

Suddenly when I click on Outlook in the Dock (or in Safari) the startup window flashes then disappears.

Worked fine previously.

All the other Office for MAC apps work fine.

I tried to re-install latest Office update and get the message "Office 2011 14.2.3 Update can't be installed on this disk (or any other on my machine!). A version of the software required to install this update was not found on this (or any other!) volume."

Appreciate any suggestions.

Reinstall Office from Time Machine

I recently restored my operating system OSX Lion. I then restored from my Time Machine Backup. I used the (Command R Power keys to initiate this). It completed without errors (eventually). 


All Apps that I tried seemed to have been recovered successfully except when I attempted to load my MS Office for MAC Apps.  It asked me to reinstall My Tdisk failed and was replaced under AppleCare. I then restored from my Time Machine Backup. I used the (Command R Power keys to initiate this). It completed without errors (eventually). 


All Apps that I tried seemed to have been recovered successfully except when I attempted to load my MS Office for MAC Apps, I was asked to reinstall microsoft office.  Unfortunately this information was saved in an email on my system and I cannot retrieve it since I cannot open my MS Outlook.


Does anyone have a solution?

How can I restore an older saved identity for Outlook? All of my old mail disappeared after I tried solving a problem with Database daemon. I have identities saved in Time Macine.

I was having problems opening Outlook 2011. When I was able to open it all my data was gone. I tried different identities in the identities folder but none of them have data. I do have saved identities in Time Machine -- how can I export these to get my old mail?
