Calendar constantly syncing in windows live mail

28. February 2014 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: ,

The calendar function is constantly updating in windows live mail. As a result, my email will not send/receive. I have to keep shutting down live mail and restarting it to get my email - it downloads emails once, then goes back to constantly updating calendar - the 'updating calendar' message is constantly flashing in the bottom right hand corner of the screen.

I am running windows 7.

I have read all the suggestions on the forums and nothing has worked.

I have phoned microsoft who have just passed me round different departments and finally wanted to charge me £95 to even speak to me.

Really fed up with this.

Any help anyone could offer would be hugely appreciated.

Many thanks

Won’t subscribe .ics calendar

09. September 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: , ,
Hello.

I got a hotmail.com email address and I use Windows Live Mail (Version 2011 (Build 15.4.3555.0308)) which I believe is the latest and www.outlook.dk and the calendar function is not working very well.

With Windows Live Mail there is no way to import/subscribe/remove .ics so I open my browser and login to calendar.live.com/calendar/calendar.aspx  and then click import and then subscribe where I add the .ics link and calendar name.



I click "subscribe" and it seems like it was a success and the calendar page shows, but nothing in the calendar has changed. 
Then I click the little wheel (right upper corner) and click on "settings", then I click on my newly added calendar and I see there's an error message.



Translated from Danish the messages say:
Latest update: "This calendar has not yet been updated."
Error: "This calendar was not updated due to a problem with the publisher's file. We will try to update it again later."

I have successfully subscribed with the exact same link using Google's Gmail and with a desktop gadget named Windows Live Calender Gadget.
So the link is working.

I wish to subscribe to following .ics link, but it just won't work.
https://services.tamigo.com/Calendar/56xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/Calendar.ics
NB. Note I have exchanged some unique signs with "x" in this example.

I've also tried removing the "s", so it just starts with "http://" but it still won't work.

Please help, I'd really like to have an updated calendar using Windows Live Mail.

Thanks!
Fred
