Using Windows 8.1

Prefer using Windows Live Mail,  but the contact list is not populated. Is there a way to sync or copy the contacts associated with "People" in 8.1??

I use WML 2012 (in Windows 7), when I use categories to send emails, the email is only sent to part of the category list.

I use WLM without signing in to Windows Live - I do not want a copy of my contacts on the cloud.

Searching online I found that this is an ongoing problem for the past 2 years.

I could not find any instances that the Microsoft Team provided a solution.

Has anyone found a case when the issue was resolved by the Microsoft team?

Has anyone found a solution for these issues and would you share the links to the solution?

Some further information.

A limited review of threads discussing how to repair WLM 12 (in Windows 7) provided me with just one clear solution: move from WLM 12 to WLM 11.

 

It provides me with two workarounds that I have been able to test and verify that they work:

1.       My preferred solution:

In a new email window, enter the selected Category in the To: box.

Click on the “Add to” button.

Within the Add to box, click on the (+) sign before the Category.

The complete list of email addresses will then appear.

Click OK

 

2.       Restart your computer and enter WLM 12.

The Categories will work.

Once you leave WLM 12 and later return, Categories will stop working again.

You will need to restart again to regain the functionality.

I have successfully imported WAB from Outlook Express 6 on my old XP desktop to WLM on my new Windows 8.1 laptop. However, I cannot get my old emails to show up. I have followed various instructions. I have created a folder on 8.1 which contains the names of all of the folders/sub folders from OE. I have went to File, Import Messages etc on WLM and pointed to this folder. I have selected the option to import all the folders (as opposed to individual folders) and I see it zooming through all the emails.  I click done or finish and get a new folder on WLM called Imported Folders. However, there is nothing in it. What am I doing wrong?
window live email is constantly offline. I go  on line to receive and send emails, however a processing task is always interrupted and go off line again. how do  receive my emails?
We have a Surface Pro touch screen and had Windows Live Mail.  We were having problems sending and decided to restore back a few days to see if it might make a difference but accidently clicked on refresh and Windows Live Mail, Photo Gallery and much more just disappeared from our start page.  After talking to a computer person we were told that refresh took the tablet back to day one when we purchased it.   We were able to retrieve a couple of apps that went away and when we go into computer we can see that Windows Live Mail still exists but we cannot figure out how to get it back to use.  If we click on one of the folders or inbox a box will come us asking us to download Outlook 2013   Can anyone tell us whether or not we can get our Windows Live Mail back.  We had a large contact list and several saved e-mails in folders that we are in need of.

    I have a new laptop that has two ways to get mail.  I can click on the mail envelope and that one works fine but does not have all the little icons I am used to so I then go to the app screen and type in windows live and it brings up my live mail hot mail account.  But it has stopped working.  It keeps flashing updating calendar and shows that unable to download mail screen.  Help

     

    When I'm on my Windows Live Mail I try and go to open my windows account. (under under Home and the sign in icon)  Every time I attempt to sign in it says that my username and password is incorrect.  I have no problem signing in to  Windows when I'm on the internet so I know that I am using the right username and password.  Can someone help me?
    Hi guys,

    I've posted this question before, but the person assisting me seems to have fallen off the planet.

    I'm having an issue in Windows Live Mail where I get a notification when junk mail arrives. Even if the mail is instantly moved straight into my junk mail folder, I get the new email notification and the new mail icon appears on the program bar.

    Is someone able to let me know how I can fix this issue? It's extremely annoying.

    Thanks.

    I have been trying to install Windows Essentials on a brand new HP Elitebook 8470p for 2 days now and keep getting this error message.  I have checked the firewall and it is on.  I have even turned it off and retried the installation to no avail.  Can someone help me, please?

     

    Thanks
