Where are the release notes for the latest update of Windows Essentials?

13. June 2014 · Write a comment · Categories: Uncategorized · Tags: , , ,

Recently, Windows Essentials was updated.  Windows Photo Gallery 2012 now shows a build number of 16.4.3528.331.

How is that build version different from the previous version?

What bugs were fixed?

What new features are there?

What previous features were removed?

What are the impacts on existing cataloged media files and metadata?

Would it be possible to answer each one of these questions?

Thanks

Hi,

I'm trying to create "Local Folders" in Live Mail 2012 as I had in the previous version(s) -  How do I do this ?

What I would really like to achieve is something similar to the following hierarchy:

PENDING

PERSONAL

  -  Ebay

  -  Purchases

  -  Software Keys

  -  Insurance

     -  Car

     -  House

Please help,

Windows Live Mail

To any wise person:


My previous version of Windows Live Mail allowed me the option of automatically emptying deleted items folder on exit.  With this version, I can only do it manually.  Can you help?

Skydrive 8.1 Queries

28. October 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: ,
Two queries about the new version :

1 How do I know the status of uploads to Skydrive? - In the previous version you could see the status via the notification icon.  I can't see how to do this in 8.1.  I can see the download status via the Skydrive W8.1 app, but not uploads.

2 As a test I saved a word file to a local folder synced to Skydrive.  I then checked Skydrive and the file was in the cloud almost instantly.  I then created some empty folders and they didn't appear in Skydrive.  Are they queued behind something else?  Which takes me back to my first query.  

I have also tried to set one of the empty folder in the local skydrive folder to on line only but get an error message stating the file is still uploading so something is obviously happening.

Finally, I can manually upload files from the cloud skydrive using the upload function.

Thanks for reading




Outlook 2011 14.3.8 Contacts and Calendar events no longer synchronising since OS X 10.9 upgrade

27. October 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: , , ,
I recently upgraded to OS X 10.9 and since the upgrade I have discovered that Apple has kindly removed the contact and calendar syncing options from iTunes.

The previous version of OS X (Mountain Lion) synced perfectly with Outlook via iCal and Apple Contacts ... now it seems the functionality has been removed.

Before embarking on an OS X downgrade I'm searching around to see a) if others have encountered the same issue b) whether anyone has been able to ascertain whether this is likely to be fixed by MS or Apple? and if so when? or lastly whether some smart cookie out there has found a solution.

Previous versions of a corrupted Word file

01. October 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: ,

Hi!

 

Skydrive corrupted a Word file. I'm trying to get a previous version but when I richt-click and select it attempts to open the latest corrupted version and states that it cannot. As it is corrupted this seems plausible. At then suggest to open it the desktop version which I cancel as I know it is corrupted it cannot be opened. But by clicking cancel the history screen goes away as well and I cannot select an older version..

 

 

How do I access an older version of a corrupted Word file on Skydrive?

Retrieve a previous version of overwritten draft?

30. August 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: ,
I accidentally overwrote two email drafts erroneously, which saved in those form.  Is there a way to revert them back prior to these overwrites?
*Note: These drafts are neither deleted or sent -- my problem is that I need thems returned to how they were before these saves.

Edit: I've noticed someone who has asked for a similar solution (How to recover a saved draft version after the email has been sent?), but there's no actual solution provided there. So to reemphasize, the solution I'm looking for is to "recover a Previous Generation Draft, which is not doable from the user's end".

restoring deleted storage folders in live mail

04. April 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: , ,

I followed the instructions given to AnitaWolfe and was able to recover a previous version of my deleted folders. However, when I copied them into Windows Live Mail and clicked on them, I got the message "There is no item in this view".

I had restored them to my Desktop before I copied them in WLM and when I click on the folders on the Desktop, the messages are there but show in codes until I actually click on each individual message. Is there something that can be done to bring the messages in WLM and see the messages as they should appear.

 

Thanks for any help you can provide.
