I am not receving attachment emails so pls help me for this msge
Your messages are in your POP folder! Some other program is set to download and delete your messages from Outlook. Just in case this was an accident, we've put them in a special POP folder. Not an accident?
I have 5 PCs on which I have a common Microsoft Account and use SkyDrive for file storage. I am encountering at least two issues since upgrading to Window 8.1 on all these PCs:
1. Despite making the appropriate selections for syncing applications and Start screen items (through turning "On" the "Start screen" and "Apps" settings in "PC settings" "SkyDrive" "Sync settings"), this does not appear to be occurring. All the PCs have the same (different) start screens as they did prior to the Windows 8.1 upgrade.
2. One of the machines has problems uploading files to SkyDrive. There is an error message saying "Files can't be uploaded because we can't access one of your SkyDrive folders on this PC." When I select the View Details button, it takes me to a screen entitled "Progress" with a subheading "Downloading (3)" Then three filenames are listed with "Competed" below each one. A restart of the PC has no effect on this issue.
How can I solve these problems?
I have bought a new Win8 phone, having used my trusty Win6, for many years, neatly cable-sync'd with my PC. Perfect.
I have tried many, many times trying to Export/Import from the old product to the new Outlook account, linked to skydrive.
No dice. It simply will not import the pst file. Point blank refusal. I suspect it was way too hopeful to expect that it would work as simply as it appears to on the instructional video's.
I tried to import each part separately, Contacts, Calendar and Emails, with following results.
Contacts
I had limited success with contacts, importing them via csv, but lost
- the contact photo's;
- all the groups I had established;
- it appears there is a new character limit on the "notes" for each contact, the rest just severed into oblivion
- the colour coded "Categorize" in all my contacts data.
Calendar
I had no success with Calendar at all. It reports:-
Calendar import error"There's a problem with the ICS file you're trying to add. Something may have gone wrong when the file was originally exported. You may want to re-export the file and try again"
"Been there done that" - followed all the instructions to the letter, & every conceivable permeation, over and over again - it is not willing to play.
I even got a screen that told me It would not be able to import diary entries beyond Jan 1, 2014, and not be able to accept recurring entries at all, AND THEN it still refused import the entries between the dates it said it could do!
And since when are we forced to look at calendars set commence each week on a Monday? I can't find any customising menu to set preferences anywhere back to Sunday, where normal people have had it for centuries?
Forget it - there is not even a menu to import (I cant find any option anywhere). How are you supposed to import all your historical emails into the system?
This business with translating the POP account across seems so convoluted, forwarding emails to the live account and then back again - what a crock!
Years ago I successfully upgraded from Win5 to Win6 on computer and phone - it took me under 30 minutes. But it appears this new regime is aiming for 30 days, or perhaps 30 months! and even then ...who knows if it will work?
I am super frustrated at this new innovation! It is in no way user friendly, and shows little respect for the value of my data accumulated over many years.
Shoulda gone with Android or iphone!

Every time it gets updated (or I check that it is updated, the installer FAILS to check if the version is the same (and if it is repair it)), the app 100% ignores the settings already there, I have set it up over 50 times this defect has been in every
version of SkyDrive on OS X. If the log sender is working then Microsoft should already have the logs showing the nasty bug. No one wants to reset the app every time it is update or when the app decides to ignore the settings randomly, never run a beta Skydrive
app here, defect is 100% Microsoft side
Microsoft Answer has a HUGE bug of sending round 20 emails for just one new private message, I have gotten around 60 to 80 between 4 different private messages, not sure if this site has the same bad bug, (I have already reported it many times, no response)
sir i have douts in my windows 8.1 plzzzz my number is 9590053517 plzzz call me
Just loading up a new laptop with Windows 8. Asked to set up an Outlook account. Already had a Hotmail account. Followed 'bring in' instructions with difficulty. Can't get to Hotmail account anymore and Hotmail email/contacts etc have not been added in to the Outlook account.
Hotmail still working on my Blackberry, so the emails etc are there somewhere, but whenever I try to go on to Hotmail on my computer, or my old computer, I am straight into Outlook, with no link to Hotmail.
Help!
Others have asked similar questions, but their issues sound a little different. Here are the details:
- Skydrive desktop app/folder synced perfectly in WIndows 8 Pro
- After update to Windows 8.1 skydrive desktop app is gone (removed?)
- Skydrive folder no longer syncs (does show the clockwise arrows icon...but no changes ever)
- Skydrive (metro) App does not sync either (does have 3 dots constantly going across the top)
- Skydrive (metro) app keeps reverting to "access all files offline" OFF even though I set it to ON.
- Skydrive (metro) app works fine on my Surface RT and desktop folder syncs fine on my Windows 7 computer at work.
Any help? It seems like this is a widespread problem.
Thanks,
Brad

How do I delete files in the shared folder in skydive after they have been shared.
There is no option to delete in the Manage pull down menu or a right click delete.
When I access msn.com I get a warning saying that there is a certificate error. I can click the status bar and select display blocked content. Then I log into my mail, Outlook and the it says I am logged in, but outlook does not load. It just says loading.
