Hi,
A long time ago, I started getting a message at login that "Your session timed out" and instructions to try my login again. It was aggravating but it stopped after a while. Now it's back. Any ideas from anyone about what is causing this and if this is something I can fix? How? Thank you.
I'm having problems synching my Skydrive account on one PC which has the Skydrive app installed. I've tried many of the suggested remedies such as re-installing the app, trying an alternative DNS server, and moving most of the folders/files out of the Skydrive folder and trying to sync again.
When I start Skydrive from Start Menu item an app briefly shows up in the icons and notifications area of the Taskbar and a message flags up to say that Skydrive is running and a windows showing the contents of the Skydrive folder opens . But the app icon remains visible only whilst I am not signed in to Skydrive, ie for a few seconds. Once (signed in apparently ) the icon then disappears and I can no longer change any of the Skydrive settings. Alternatively, the icon disappears when I move the mouse cursor over the icon and is not available when I click the arrow to show hidden icons. The drive is not synchronising.
I am subscribed to the 100Gb Skydrive Storage plan and need to keep the files on Skydrive backed up.
How do I resolve this issue?
Why can't I add a SBCGLOBAL.NET account to the send and receive of OUTLOOK.COM. The settings are as follows
Incoming server = inbound.att.net
port = 995
security = SSL
Outgoing server = inbound.att.net
port = 465
security = SSL/TSL

I've sent in several requests over the last month to fix an obvious bug.
In June, Outlook.com discontinued linked accounts (which were stupid anyway, you shouldn't have to switch between accounts to check a different email.) However, this made Outlook.com completely unusable for people with Microsoft Accounts with custom domains with live.domains.com
I -- and I am sure many others who just gave up and moved back to gmail, who does this seamlessly -- would like to "send and receive" email from multiple email address (I own several businesses, and websites, and thus, I need to answer to many email addresses).
Here is the problem. While Outlook.com allows users to send and receive email from third party email accounts using pop3 and 3rd party smtp servers (e.g. pop3.gmail.com), it does not allow users to set up "send and receive" from its own pop and smtp servers (pop3.live.com and smtp.live.com).
As an alternative, Outlook.com includes "email aliases". However, this option is only good for @hotmail.com, @live.com, and @outlook.com. It does not work with custom domains setup on live.domains.com.
The most hilarious thing, is that when I try to set up "send and receive email from another account", by putting in my email settings for my custom domains email addresses that are setup and managed with live.domains.com (pop3.live.com and smtp.live.com), I get a message that says,
It looks like you're trying to add another Outlook account. Try linking your Outlook accounts together to make switching between them fast and easy.
MICROSOFT DISCONTINUED LINKED ACCOUNTS 3 MONTHS AGO!!!. THAT IS A WHOLE FINANCIAL QUARTER!!! THAT RECOMMENDED LINK ABOVE HAS DONE ABSOLUTELY ZERO FOR THREE MONTHS!!!
Since this was not resolved, had a choice, switch all of my clients back to gmail, or find a solution within microsoft. I tried to set up a custom domain with Office 365 Business as a test, and found that if you point your domain's mx record to office 365, you can't manage mail server settings like a normal mail server. The only way to set up additional email address on your custom domain is to purchase an entire user account for $16 per month. Are you high? Nobody is going to pay $16/mo for an email address.
So, the Office 365 option was out.
Therefore, my only option is to point my domains' mx records to someone other than live.domains.com (e.g. POP.GMAIL.COM), then I can happily receive email in a single Outlook.com account from as many addresses as I want, by routing it through their competitor. However, in order to do so, I have to change my primary Microsoft Account email, because it is on the same domain as some other emails that I want to check (e.g. *** Email address is removed for privacy *** and *** Email address is removed for privacy ***, etc), so, I'll have to setup an @outlook.com email, just to use Outlook.com and Office 365 and my Microsoft Account, in order to check multiple email addresses at my custom domain.
This will, however, make me have to wait for syncing via pop, in order to receive mail, and given the war between Microsoft, Google, and Apple, I doubt Google will point mx records to Microsoft for much longer.
Additionally, setting up that @outlook.com email as my Microsoft Account primary email messes up all my microsoft services. My mail apps on windows8, surface, and phone8 will then sync with an email address that I don't even use (the @outlook.com email).
So, this begs the question. Why would I go through all this trouble in order to use Outlook.com or Office 365 or any other Microsoft Service?
I don't think I will.
I've sent in a request to fix this issue several times to multiple departments. I've even found a phone number for microsoft (which is a major task), but the people who answered in Malaysia don't seem to have much pull with the Microsoft's decision makers or its shareholders.
Apparently, end users don't have any pull either (at least, that's what Microsoft seems to erroneously think)
Prove me wrong. Respond to this thread with action on this issue.
If not, I am moving all of my clients back to Google services, and will have to apologize to all of them for making the stupid mistake of recommending Microsoft products 2 years ago.
Boy it was a hassle giving Microsoft a second chance. There will be no third.

I made a new account alias, and set it to my primary alias, I then deleted my old original alias. When I tried to check my inbox, I received an error, stating that's its updating.. and it has been like this for a few days. I have noticed other users are
also experiencing the same problem. I re-added my old original alias, and set it to the primary alias, yet I still cannot check my email. I have tried with another browser, but still encountered the problem.
Some months ago I copied a large directory of pictures to Skydrive. Now I need to recover some of them. When I log in to my account, the main directory is shown and there are about 50 or so sub-directories that contain individual pictures. All but about
a half dozen are empty. If I right click on an empty directory and look at its properties, it appears that something is there as it shows MB of content. Please don't tell me to check the recycle bin as nothing has been deleted - at least not by me. I did
check it anyway and my recycle bin is empty.
