I`m using integrated skydrive in Win 8.1, and in skydribve options I set property "Allow local access" to true, and now I can modify all the files but it makes their local copies like "filename-myDomain", so I want to modify original files and in the same time upload them into skydrive after modification, how can I do it???
Thanks.
I am looking for help to access mail hosted on Outlook.com using Outlook 2013 (Office 365 Home Premium v15.0.4535.1511).
My email address/Microsoft Account is not an Outlook.com, Live.com or Hotmail.com address - it is my own domain, something like <*** Email address is removed for privacy ***>. I can reach my account successfully from my Nokia Lumia 920 and Windows Mail on my Lenovo Thinkpad 2 (Win8), but not from the "full" Outlook client on the Lenovo Thinkpad 2 (Win8) or a Windows 7 laptop (O365 HP also).
I have tried the following (unsuccessfully) to get Outlook to connect to Outlook.com:
- Select File->Add Account
- Select "Manual setup or additional server types"
- Select "Outlook.com or Exchange ActiveSync compatible service"
- Enter Name, Email Address, Mail Server, User Name, Password
- Email address is something like <*** Email address is removed for privacy ***>
- Password is my Microsoft Account password
- For the Mail Server I tried "m.hotmail.com" and "dub-m.hotmail.com" - my Lumia 920 uses the latter successfully (I think it is a Dublin server)
- User Name is therefore also <*** Email address is removed for privacy ***>
The test to access the account fails with the following error: "Log onto Exchange ActiveSync mail server (EAS): The username or password you entered isn't working. Please try typing them again."
Please can someone help.
Thanks
I recently created a custom domain alias to Outlook.com and I am no longer receiving messages to that email address from major banks, such as Chase, Bank of America and even AT&T. Everything else appears to be working, from what I can tell. I ran a domain check on mxtoolbox and it said my email domain is not accepting https. Additionally, Chase messages are being sent over https.
My DNS is setup 100% correctly, as is my SPF record. Is there anything that I can do to enable https or does Outlook.com not support this? I'm hoping that I do not have to move to another email provider.
Please advise,
thanks!
UPDATE: None of the non-received messages are going to junk mail.
I am trying to open one of my skydirve files. It is an Excel Web App. It tries to open but eventually gives me this error message... Request Was Taking Too Long.
We're sorry. We couldn't finish what you asked us to do because it was taking too long.
This has happened in the past but eventually it worked. I have tried it in IE v. 11 with Windows XP and Mozilla. Also tried via my iphone. Same problem.
I can open other excel files without any problems.
Hello,
I recently upgraded to 8.1 a few weeks ago and now suddenly my Skydrive is not syncing. I first noticed the issue when I tried to save a file that I had opened. It asked me to rename the document because it was read only. When I checked my file it did indeed say read only. I tried to rename it and save to Skydrive but could not. I then went online to see if there was an issue however I was able to open and edit just fine.
When I tried to open the file from the web into the desktop application (in this case Excel) I received an error message saying it was unable to open. I tried a workaround to see if I could force it to sync. I saved the file from the web to my desktop (under a new name), checked to make sure it opened and was the correct version on the desktop, then I tried to save it back to Skydrive. When I attempted to save directly from the Excel application to Skydrive the file appeared from when I previously saved it on the web. I overwrote the file with the file from the desktop. I was able to successfully save, however the file still does not appear in my Skydrive folder.
I can see it online fine and also if I try and save a new file I can but it will not show in my Skydrive folder on my desktop and all old file open as read only. I also disconnected my Microsoft account and reconnected but that did nothing as well. Restarting and shutting down also had no effect.
Also one last thing to point out, I went into the Skydrive app and it shows the same thing the folder on the desktop does, no updates, no new files, not syncing. It has said it was downloading a file, the original file I was trying to open. However I thought maybe the file was corrupted so I deleted it, this also had no effect. I had to delete it off the web and then go into the Skydrive app on my PC and delete as well. So far nothing I've done has worked.
Errors I've received:
Sorry we couldn't open <file name here>
Microsoft Excel couldn't access file <file name here>
