Skydrive no longer working on user account since 8.1 upgrade

27. October 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: microsoft, university account

Hi, I have three user accounts on my surface. Administrator, regular day to day, and my University account. The university account is set as local and is not linked to my Microsoft accounts, it never has been. Prior to the update I could access my Skydrive account from my day to day account (which is linked to my Microsoft profile) and my University account (where really I need it most!). Now it tells me I have to link that account to Microsoft to access the Skydrive, but when I try and link it am given a prompt saying that it cannot link as there is already a user on my pc that in linked to my account.

What is happening and how can I again access Skydrive from my local University account? Onenote still works fine!

reset Windows Live ID password

27. October 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: microsoft, password reset, Windows Live ID

I received an email from Microsoft Account Team with the title ' Microsoft Account Password Reset‏' , though I have not requested for the password reset at all. I am a bit suspicious about this email as the sender has a funny hotmail account. Below is the instruction followed by 2 URLs to click on either to confirm or to cancel the reset.

I did not take any action yet before I confirm that it is safe to do so.

Did you request a Password Reset? Someone requested a reset for your Windows Live ID password. Follow the instructions below to reset your password, or to cancel your password reset request or to disable your account

Just wonder if this is the legitimate email sent by the Microsoft Team and how did someone request for a reset other than myself . Any help will be appreciated.

Why did Microsoft delete mail from my inbox?

27. October 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: inbox, microsoft

I realized this was a problem when I went searching for an email that contained a software authorization code that I hadn't used yet from earlier this year. When I went to look for it, I realized that all email in my inbox had been deleted up until June of this year. I was really confused, so I seached on google and found this thread:

http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windowslive/forum/mail-email/all-my-old-hotmail-emails-have-been-deleted-how-do/fbb99c4f-80c3-4f2c-9d75-c2c3bd8bd107

It was clear from this thread that the moderators didn't have any clue what happened, or how to position this to customers. The fact of the matter is that emails in the inbox are being deleted despite the fact that no changes were made (such as sweep), no items were ever placed in the delete folder, and the inbox space hadn't been used up. (I'm assuming an arbitrary folder message limit was implemented in the switch over to outlook.com, which seems to be when these issues started originating)

Then in subsequent threads, I notice the moderators locking every single thread bringing this topic up.

Why did this happen?! How can I get my emails back? And if I can't, how will I be compensated for the loss of information that will now clearly cost me money in replacing that information?

Suffice to say, if this can't be rectified, I won't ever be using any Microsoft online services any longer.

Creating a New Email Address

27. October 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: error message, microsoft

When I am trying to create a new email address, Outlook is telling me email address is already taken. However, when i attempt to try and login to that email address i get the error message:
That Microsoft account doesn't exist. Enter a different email address or get a new account.

And when i try to reset the password for that email address I get the error message:
The Microsoft account is incorrect. Please try again.

Outlook keeps deleting emails from my inbox after a few weeks

27. October 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: inbox, microsoft

I've seen that the same question has been asked and answered a lot, but the only solution I've seen seems to be when a Microsoft moderator steps in.

So like everyone else I upgraded to outlook a few months ago and have noticed now that the emails that I leave in my inbox are just automatically deleted, I've managed to save the important emails to folders, so that's fine. I check me emails via my iphone and web browser, the settings on my iphone do not have an auto delete feature; the settings in the web browser do not have a scheduled clean up for my inbox and I have the 'don't let devices or apps delete messages from outlook' feature checked.

Thanks is advance.

Unsure what to do help.

What happened to my inbox?????

Outlook.com Microsoft + SEVEN

I have an LG Lucid cell phone and have had Hotmail for years. Once Outlook took over it was fine until last Thursday Oct 24 then all of a sudden my email on my phone went crazy. It would not notify me of new emails. It would not sync to my folders. I would click on sync and after hours of trying I received a message that said "UNFORTUNATELY OUTLOOK HAS STOPPED". So I uninstalled and reinstalled it about 3 or 4 times from the play store on my phone. It would work for a few hours and then stop. I would create a new email and just sits in my outbox. When it does work and I put some emails into the folders I have that doesn't sync with my computer at home. The emails I put in folders on my phone are still in my inbox on my computer. This was never the case before Thursday. Everything went really good up until then. My computer email is fine it is just my phone.

I am very frustrated because NO body can seem to help with this. I was at Verizon for 2 hours today for them to try and help and I was on the phone with their tech support and they couldn't help. Then I called Microsoft and they couldn't help, then I did a live chat on the web site from Microsoft and he couldn't help. He suggested I contact this Community Forum. I sure hope you can finally be of assistance. It is VERY important that I get my emails to my phone.

Thank you,

Roberta
