Have been using windows live mail 2012 successfully for a couple of years.  Yesterday, a pop-up box appeared for the first time asking me to sign in.   (Has sign-in happened automatically before?)  When I attempted to sign in, I received an error message:  "the email address or password is incorrect.  Please try again."  I rechecked and both were correct, but I carefully retyped them and tried again.  I even tried using my Comcast password to no avail.  So, I logged into my Microsoft account and changed the password.  When I tried signing into windows live mail with the new password, I still continued to get the same error message.  But since email still worked, I gave up and turned off the "sign in" prompt.  Today, however, I noticed that I cannot access my email contacts list without being signed in to windows live mail.   So, I'm back to square one:  unsuccessfully trying to sign in.  After both an online chat and a telephone conversation with Microsoft support, here I am.   Can someone help? 

My microsoft essential is'nt updating even when the internet services is working fine. Same too for windows defende and windows update.r. Presently, there is no antivirus software installed except microsoft essential which is now red saying my laptop is not protected.
I just had to get a new computer, saved all my stuff from the old computer to an external hard drive. installed windows live mail on the new computer, and now I need to transfer my contacts into the new live mail. Directions state "click on contacts in the lower left hand corner", but when I do, nothing happens. HELP!!?? Thanks, Susan
I have a new Acer Laptop with Windows 8.1.  8 GB memory  I created a folder and over a period of 2 months well over 200 emails were stored many with attachments.  Suddenly on the 13 June 2014 many of these emails just disappeared, and by chance I have just found them, 150, in the deleted category of storage folders.  Is there a limit to the numbers of emails stored, and should this have happened

Did'nt help.

The problem may  be not with windows mail but something to do with my hotmail account.

I can access it through web browser but neither through my phone nor through win mail on my laptop.

When synchronising, it never connects to my mail hotmail mail 1  though it connects to hotmail mail 2.

The error msg :

Unable to send or receive messages for the Hotmail (xxxxxxx1) account

Server Error: 0x80072F78

Server: 'https://mail.services.live.com/DeltaSync_v2.0.0/Sync.aspx'

Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x80072F78

Hello,

I received an email from "*** Email address is removed for privacy ***", saying I should reconnect my Microsoft and google account.

Is it safe or phishing?

Best,

Niels

What do I do to ensure new Windows Live Mail contacts are automatically copied to my Surface RT?

Hi there, 

I have recently encountered a problem in my Windows Live Mail account, where I am not able to open emails which have a Calendar Invite attached to it. 
ie. If you open this on your phone, it will opt for you to accept or decline to the event listed in the email to add to your calendar. It is most likely a Google Calendar invite, but I am not sure as it works on my iPhone 5. 

Basically, I believe that if a simple task like opening such an email is not possible for Windows Live Mail, I may think about switching services, as it is such a fundamental problem. 

PS. I am able to open the email on my iPhone 5.


Thanks,

Eric
