New to Windows 8 phone.  Messed up the contacts and now wanting to delete all the contacts in Windows Live site.  Seems like other than deleting one by one there is no way. Very inconvenient.  

BTW the reason why the contacts got messed up is the following. I imported the contacts from my old phone into the Live account and had exported it as a CSV file.  Couple of days later, I imported from the same file. And viola. Some of the cell phone numbers got updated in engineering notations ( numbers like 9845e+11) . Went back to the CSV and checked that indeed some of the phone numbers were stored in engineering notations.  After a painstaking efforts, got the CSV corrected ( from my older cellphone contacts).  And then imported the CSV again.
Live did the import but did not replace the older contacts, just added duplicate entries.   The "Cleanup Contact" feature doesnt work as its output is useless. 

Just need a clean method to delete all my contacts once so that I can start clean

I have recently had my hotmail account hacked, I changed the password and then it was accessed again and someone changed my password again. Now when I try to access the account it appears with 'someone may be trying to use your account' I have filled in the authorisation form and got an email sent to another address which has now said that there has been too many attempts to access this account. I really need to be able to unblock this as I use it for my business. Please advise
Dear Microsoft Community
I have a problem accessing my email,
a week ago i found that my email had begin to send email by it self , i knew that it had being hacked then i got problem and i was not able to sign in.
i tried the normal steps of using the option of i cant remember my password and i found that the available way to send me email was not useful for me as one of my two alternative email was also hacked so i cant get the password on it ... so i tried filling the verification page but every time i got an email telling me due to many unsuccessful tries your mail have been blocked and now i am stoked in this infinite loop and i don't know what to do .. and i need to access this email urgently and i cant cancel this account .. so please help me to retrieve it back

Many thanks for your support

I can't send new emails or reply to them. All I can do is forward to another email address.
Hi,

I'd like to set up and manage my own domain name with outlook.com.

But I'd like to know if my windows live id I'm using, that is also one of my own domain mail addresses, could be use to manage this domain with outlook.com

Ex.:

domain name : delgado-lucas.com
windows live: *** Email address is removed for privacy ***

Thanks,
When i try to sign into my account it has this message:

We're updating your inbox
Please wait a few minutes and then try again.

has been saying this for over 24 hours.

Have tried multiple browsers and computers. doesn't even work through outlook 2010.
Hello, my friend hasnt been on her hotmail account for a few years, however recently has come to the point that one of her accounts linked to her hotmail needs its password reset. She tried logging in and discovered that the account doesnt exist (Not suprising since microsoft deactivates inactivate accounts) However the annoying part started when she went to remake the account thinking that the emails would go to the new one just like they would the old. It said that the name was taken. I then figured that this meant that somone else had created an account with that name since it was deactivated and tried sending an email to the account asking for assistance, only to get a return email saying it couldnt be delivered and upon trying to sign in, still, the account apparently does not exist. How can I get her hotmail address back so that she can get this password reset sorted out?
