Upon restoring my tablet when prompted to sign in to Microsoft account it will not allow me to sign in using my account. It only allows the local user. I tried time and time again to create new user and add my Microsoft account but it will not work. I just keep getting a error message and tells me to try again later. I also am unable to get into the store to download more apps.. I'm not too tech savvy so I'm not sure where to go from here.

I use Windows Live Mail 2011.  I can send Emails OK.  Suddenly when sending Emails with attachments (usually jpg photos) my TalkTalk security set-up blocks them with message:

Attachment:  Malformed message.    E-mail blocked.            The message ends up in the SENT folder but the recipient doesn't receive it.

I notice that in the 'Subject' line in this error window it shows the subject as I've typed it, but with additional characters that I can't identify -

e.g.  "subject as typed" butterfly_top.gif[1/2].   I cannot find such a filename anywhere in my m/c although it is poss. it has been accessed sometime in the past. Might these extra characters in the Subject box be causing the problem and where are they coming from? 

If I send the same message with the same attachment using TalkTalk mail the message and attachment gets sent and received OK with no problem. 

I've been quite happy with Windows Live Mail up to now and want to continue to use all my contacts/sent/input/deleted msg folders etc. 

I'd be grateful for any advice.....

I get thousands of old emails in my inbox when I open it.  This is with Windows Live Mail.  It appears that I'm unable to delete old emails.

Why do I have 2 entrys for St. Andrew's Day.

When I save an email it saves as an .eml file but will only open with the Word file.

When I 'search for programs and files it  brings up the subject in an email shown as a Word and  when I open the file

it also opens in Word.

This never used to happen as it has only recently started doing this.

I created the default Signature (use default name), ensured that the "Add Signature..." box was selected, used Signature #1 as default signature.  If I select the Reply or Replay all options then the default signature is not applied to the replay space.  If I select the signature option, then the signature is embedded in the reply text space (or wherever cursor is positioned).  How do I get the signature to be automatically embedded in the reply text space.

Also I would like to change the font and have it the same for the text.  There is no option in the options box when I create the signature.

Thanks

Bob

I was wondering.  In 2011 I sent photos to friends with the Microsoft Live Mail program.  The photos were sent as SkyDrive Photo Albums which were available on the internet through SkyDrive for about a month.  Now, I would like to look at the photos in those old e-mails, but the pictures are too small to be of much value.  The size of the e-mails is relatively large, though (over 1MB for several pictures) -- which leads me to believe that the "larger," higher resolution pictures are still on my computer or in the Live Mail program servers somewhere somehow.  Can anybody tell me how I could view those pictures again.
