Re:  Windows Live Mail Calendar (Windows 8)

Does Windows Live Mail Calendar have pre-installed U. S. holidays?  If so, how can I re-install them.  They're not showing up.  Thanks.

My wife and I have been using WLM for email and Calendar for a number of years.  We have a Laptop running Vista and a Desktop running Windows 7.  The We use this as an email client although we use Rogers Yahoo Email.  Both email accounts (Dianne and Andrew) are set up as POP3 and are functioning properly.  But the Calendar and Contacts which have been syncing between the 2 machines up until about 2 weeks ago are no longer doing so. When WLM is open and I sync on all email accounts there is no problem.  But when I press Sync Everything an non-specified error occurs and the Calendar and Contacts are not syncing either with the other computer or the Outlook.com site account

This happened in mid August as well and I logged in to our Outlook.Com site account and reset the sharing permissions to Co-Owner and that seemed to immediately solve the problem. 
 I have tried the changing the same setting a number of times this past two weeks and have not had any success.

I do not think that this is machine specific because we can make a new Calendar Entry on the laptop and it does not appear at Outlook.com nor on the Desktop. Same for the reverse.  A new entry in the Outlook.com Calendar does not update on either machine 

Any suggestions.
Thank you
Andrew



Is there a way to search for past events entered into the Windows Live Mail Calendar?  I would like to pull up all occurrences of a specific event entry.

Has there been an update since the 2011 version I now have?

In attempting to avoid adding something to Task Scheduler, I am trying to set a reminder using the Reminders button in the Windows Live Mail  Calendar ribbon.  (Version 2012 Build 16.4.3505.0912, which I realize is not the lastest v., but as Build 16.4.3508.0205 presented problems, I reverted to this build - thankfully I always archive the stand-alone installer "wlsetup-all.exe" when I find new versions deployed.) 

I find that clicking this button invokes redirection to my Outlook.com online calendar, and that redirects to a Server Error 404 page with the message "We can't find that page"   Judging from the original url invoked before redirection (http://calendar.live.com/calendar/WLAlertsSettingsRedirector.aspx), it would appear this is not a problem specific to me or to this box (which I believe I've confirmed by trying it from others, virtual & physical), but rather a lack of functionality in the service itself.  Any advice will be warmly appreciated.

Good afternoon

 

I have imported the 2013 New Zealand Holiday calendar in my Hotmail calendar (Calendar Live), and it also shows in my Windows 8 app Calendar.

 

However, I can't get it to show in my Windows Live Mail Calendar, despite having a New Zealand Holidays calendar (which does show the 2012 holidays).

 

How do I get the 2013 holidays in my Windows Live Mail Calendar?

 

Kind regards
