Today I received a message from Microsoft (*** Email address is removed for privacy ***) giving a code number and asking me to copy it or change my password. As the message does not look fake, I changed my password. Frankly, I am a bit worried that the message might be a scam.
Any help!
My Skydrive no longer syncs since upgrade to 8.1. I am signed into microsoft account on both desktop and laptop. No skydrive icon in notification area.
Can Microsoft please issue simple way of resolving this.
To be frank, I moved to Skydrive after Live Mesh was withdrawn and Skydrive has never been anywhere near as reliable as the former.
This should be a set up and forget process.
Please direct to simple help
Thanks

Don’t get locked out again
Once you access your account, we highly recommend you update your password reset information with
a phone number or alternate email address. This will make it easier for you to gain access to your account in the future if you are locked out again.
Thank you!

Having just spent 40 minutes on the phone to 3 diffrent Microsft support people, I have been told to post my issue on this forum and someone from Microsoft will help me.
When I try and log into my Microsoft Account, I get a message that says it looks like someone might be using your account. So i click "next" and attempt to request a security code. I have the option of text or email. Text doesn't work as I input my landline and not mobile number when i set up the account, ut when I select email, it brings up an email message to say, the service is unavailable please try again later.
I have tried the third option to verify my account which requires a form to be filled in, but all I ge in response to this, is a password reset and when i try an log in, I still get stuck at the security code screen.
I an using IE and have tried diffrent computers, iPhone, Blackberry etc.
Any help is appreciated as I don't want to lose my xbox live gold membership and Gamertag by simply opening another account.
Thanks.
Hi,
I have a Microsoft account with an email @gmail and I have another Microsoft account @outlook.com (has an alias @live.com) and another account @hotmail.com. I would like to merge the three accounts. Can someone assist me with this? I tried to do this
via the alias section but it said I couldn't.
Thanks.
So, this morning at approx 4:30(eastern time) i received a series of unrequested SMS from different sender(phone number) saying this;
"Microsoft account password reset code: *******" (change the stars by 7 digit number code)
As i have never requested a password change i am worried about the safety of my account (i use it mainly for my XBOX)
I am affraid to login into my account, because i know that is probably someone who try to mess with my microsoft account...
So what i am supposed to do/ what its the best way to avoid that kind of situation?
P.S. you shoud add a "Microsoft Account" in the category dropmenu below
"Microsoft account password reset code: *******" (change the stars by 7 digit number code)

Hello,
After installing the Windows 8.1 does not work for me SkyDrive. When you try start apper the message "Sorry, there was a problem try again later." Trying to run the application Skydrive with bar on the desktop does not work also. I ran the tool for solving problems with your account, and got the message: ""Problems with Microsoft account Policy - not solve, "Authentication information is incomple - detected", "some settings have sync turned off - detected"
The situation is similar for the second profile! (I have two on this computer)
Other applications run normally - email application, shop etc.
What to do?
I need your help.
So I created live.com like 2 years ago and now that msn totally changed I tried to log back to my account and I couldn't , i had to create a Microsoft account and I put the same old email address
which is this one. And 2 days ago I wanted to reset my Instagram password and Instagram sent me an email to my old email account(this one) and when I check my outlock I don't see any incoming email from Instagram. And now I can't get on it cause I asked to
reset my password and I'm not getting the message on this new Microsoft. What do I do now ? Like what happened to all the emails I had from a year or 2 years ago ? They disappeared ? And what happen if someone tries to send me an email? Where does it go ?
I'm really confused, stressed and frustrated cause I wasn't expecting this. I don't like this new update cause instead of putting it more easy we gotta break our heads in order of how to use it or understand it .. All I want to know is that if I could get
that Instagram email on this Microsoft outlock ? Ill appreciate if you reply to me as soon as possible. Thank you.
