Problems with Windows live mail

07. January 2014 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: , , , ,
I recently purchased a Windows tablet.  Since configuring to receive emails through Windows Live I can no longer access my Yahoo emails on my laptop or phone.  I can still pick up ntl and Gmail without problems on the other devices.  I have reset my Windows password which I understand should be the same for Windows Live Mail as well as Windows. Registration.  My laptop claims that I am using the wrong password despite the fact that I can send and receive from ntl and Gmail. I am getting a Ox800CCCOE, detailing protocol POP3, Port 995, SSL yes, Socket error 10060 as the error message when I log on.
 
Anyone have any solutions?

My Windows tablet is full due to SkyDrive

One of my devices is a Windows tablet with 64gb storage.  Of course, a large chunk of that it taken by the OS.  The remaining memory, however, has been gobbled up by syncing with SkyDrive (I recently purchased 200gb of SkyDrive storage). 

 

Is there a way to 

1. remove these files from the tablet without deleting them from SkyDrive *and*

2. Use SkyDrive on the tablet without syncing the huge files which will render my tablet useless?

 

Thanks in advance!
