I thought it is a problem with Microsoft outlook 2013 but it seems to be a problem with outlook.com or Microsoft account.
My @live.com account does not work with Microsoft outlook 2013.
I can send email that others receive but all folders(inbox, sent),calendar and contacts are empty.
In the systray is notification that "Microsoft outlook cannot connect to server".
This account works perfectly on Windows Phone and on the outlook.com
Also, there is no problem on Windows live mail app.
What makes things even more strange is that I have another @hotmail.com account and it there is no problem in outlook2013.
All sync is as should ( mail, contacts, calendar).
However it works on pop3.live.com, but what is the point? I want to have full sync!
I am very disappointed. After one week trying to solve problem with Microsoft office technical support (online chat, phone call, remote connection)
my issue remain unsolved. (They tried set-up various servers settings: m.hotmail.com, blu-m.hotmail.com, dub-m.hotmail.com...all unsuccessfully.)
Despite support and effort from Microsoft Office Outlook tech support , they decided to close my issues as unsolved and advised me to contact 1- 800-386-5550( not very helpful number) or ask on this forum.
I'm hoping that you will have any thoughts, ideas how to tackle this problem.
many thanks for your help.

Hi, old man here with a question about Outlook vs Microsoft Outlook 2007
I have Outlook 2007. Anyway to import everything from Outlook to 2007? Reason I ask my folders didn't transfer. Thank you.
Hi
I have an IMac running snow leopard and outlook 2011 for Mac.
Since Microsoft changed from Hotmail I cannot get my outlook 2011 to sync with my live account.
So I purchased an office 365 home premium account, still no luck.
If I use pop3 (which I thought went out with the ark) it does no bring back my folders only my Inbox.
If I use Microsoft outlook for a web browser, all works well. All of my folders are there.
If I use outlook 2013 on a surface pro running windows 8.1 then all of my folders are there.
However, I notice that the connection is an "exchange active sync" whereas all my other accounts (office 365 E1) are exchange server accounts.
When I try and use outlook 2011 for Mac outlook goes into a loop re-directing me to HTTPS:// autodiscover.Hotmail.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml
And outlook never completes the connection.
Anybody any ideas ?
Thanks
Nigel
