Question about Outlook Express

My live contacts are not syncing with my windows phone.

Please have someone fix my live.com account again.

I say again, because this mysteriously happened to my windows 7.5 phone a couple of weeks ago (when I had made absolutely no changes to any opf my contacts or updates to my phone for months), somebody on Microsoft's end "adjusted" my live.com account and the contacts mysteriously reappeared without me doing anything at all to try to fix it!

Once that was fixed a couple of days ago, I decided to buy a new windows phone...from windows phone 7.5 to 8.0.

I have followed the instructions to activate, and even called the phone company to be sure I was doing it correct to set up new phone with my live.com account to be sure my live.com contacts would indeed appear.  I get everything else, emails, calendars, etc.. just no contacts...just like before. And, yes, I do have them linked and I CAN see them when I log into my computer on live.com. Please don't ask me to jump through a bunch of hoops to make this work. I activated my new phone and signed in with my live account and my contacts should be there--period. This is one of the reason I wanted a windows phone. WHAT is going on--so many people seem to have similar problems. I am sooooo close to switching to an iphone...my husband has NO problems with his iphone. Please help.

hello!

i got samsung i677 with windows phone 7.8, and the pics of skydrive cant open it on the media hub, what can i do? my phone have the lastest update and the pics was open it properly till this morning! whats goin on?

Since yesterday I have not been able to sync any new email. This is happening in the Mail app on my Windows 8 PC, Windows RT device, and Windows Phone.

I am able to successfully send email from all of those devices, but no new mail syncs. I am able to view all of the new email in Outlook.com. There is no error and on the Windows Phone the inbox claims "up to date." I have changed nothing on any of those devices. New calendar appointments however do sync instantaneously across all of the devices.

Here is what I have tried:

1. Manually syncing on all of the devices.
2. On my Windows Phone removing the email sync and adding it back. It took a long time to re-download all of my mail for each of the folders, but no new mail since yesterday morning.
3. Sent test messages from each of those devices. I can see the new email in my inbox on Outlook.com but they do not show up anywhere else.
4. Moved a few of the newer emails from the inbox to another folder via Outlook.com, but those messages in that folder still don't sync with any of the devices.

Again, I have changed nothing on all three of those devices or with my Outlook.com account.

Thanks for your assistance.
