I do not feel comfortable using Skydrive at all. I had 22GB of documents and all of the sudden I only had 9GB. It completely wiped everything I had been working on, both in my computer and in the cloud. As a paying customer, I think a 'cloud-based' storage service should have less access to my computer. If it wasn't for a Time Machine backup on my Mac I would not have been to recover any of it.
can some one please help me and tell me why i can't open my account in google chrome but i can in internet explorer. everytime i try in google chrome it tells me my account doesn't exixt. i got no help from  customer support (ellaine). she kept telling me that she only dealt with windows live or hotmail issues. if this isn't a hotmail issue i don't know what it is then. i hsve cleared my cookies cache in google and it didn't help. please help as its driving me crazy switching between the two browsers
HE INTENTADO RELLENAR EL FORMULARIO PERO ME DICE QUE LOS DATOS ESTAN INCOMPLETOS Y NO RECUERDO CUAL ES LA RESPUESTA DE LA PREGUNTA SECRETA. MI CORREO ES *** Email address is removed for privacy ***

Hello, I've tried everything. I'm running windows 8, and go to download Movie Maker from this link: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-live/movie-maker

I click Get It Now next to Windows 8, Click download now.  Then I go to my downloads folder, right click, run as administrator.  I run custom install, and only check Photo Gallery/Movie Maker.  I run the program and I get the response:

Couldn't install programs
Couldn't install these programs: Photo Gallery and Movie Maker
One of the installation files appears to be corrupted.
Error: 0x80070002
Source: Watson-x64

Currently I am running Norton Security Suite, and before installing I put it on silent mode, disabled the smart firewall, and disabled the antivirus auto-protect.  That's about all I can do short of uninstalling it.  Lastly, I checked to see if windows live was on my computer and it is not, and I checked my program files/common files and there is nothing.  Also my computer has all current windows updates for windows 8.  Any help would be much appreciated.
At first it vanished of one alternate computer that I use, but this afternoon, the entire file vanished from my work computer!  I'm ready to scream!  I really need that file!  I can't find any traces of it!  I've not changed anything, how I save, etc.  


I have read all of the posts and have been unable to unlock my account.  I have been locked out for almost a month now trying to work with Microsoft to get it unlocked.  Hoping someone here can help me.  I am going to post all of the steps I have gone though.

I went to this site 3 times and filled out the form and submitted: https://account.live.com/acsr. I get an email that says "We've received the recovery request for your Microsoft account ********** (email removed). Your issue number is: 95631223 What's next?

The only correspondence I got was a feedback request...bad feedback so far obviously.

I filled account verification form out and got the following response, General Issue 08/09/2013 10:05 Subject: 1213422699 From: Escalation Agent Hi, We found out that your account is associated to a Xbox Live subscription. We strongly suggest that you contact our Xbox Support for their account validation process and once you pass, they also have the tools to provide you with a password that you can use to gain access to your account. You can use the contact numbers and a link below on how you can reach their support team. Xbox - Customer Service Information - 425-635-7180 (800) 4MY-XBOX or (800) 469-9269 Xbox Customer Support http://support.xbox.com/ Thanks! Paolo P. The support number for this request was SRX1213422699ID. So, I called Xbox live and they told me to let you know that my account is active and I can access it with no troubles, rather it is LOCKED by Microsoft and they cannot unlock it. They can only help with password/account recovery. Since I can log into my account and it tells me that it appears to have been compromised and is locked, I must go through you to UNLOCK it.

I have gone to the site mail.live.com 3 different times and have reset my password.  I can get in with the new password, but it tells me "It looks like someone else might be using your account. To help you—and only you—get back into ******** (email removed), we need to verify that it's yours"  I then have 2 choices: send me a code via text message or email.  If I choose text message the phone number is blocked, but the last 4 are my number.  I never get a text (I have done this 5-6 times).  If I choose send me a code via email, I get the following error message "There's a temporary problem with the service. Please try again. If you continue to get this message, try again later."  I have been getting this error message the entire time I have been trying to get back into my account.  I have tried the page using Firefox and Internet Explorer, same error with both.

My latest response from Microsoft was "

Hi,
Welcome to the Microsoft Community.
After reviewing the information you provided and looking at your account details, I’ve determined that you need to reset your password to recover 
your account. To do this kindly go to (https://account.live.com/password/reset) . If your not able to reset your password kindly follow the steps below for the validation procedure, you will be prompted to provide an active
alternate email where the password reset link will be sent once you passed the validation (Step#6) 1. Select "I think someone else is using my Microsoft account". Or “I forgot my password” (Select which is applicable). 2. Click "Reset your password". 3. Enter your Microsoft account (The account affected by the issue) and type in the characters you'll see in the pictures 4. Hit Next. 5. Click "I can’t use any of these options". 6. Enter a working email address (Alternate e-mail address) where we can contact you. 7. Click “Next”. 8. Fill-up the form and click “Submit”. Please read this help article “My Outlook.com account has been hacked” at http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/outlook/hacked-account
and follow the steps to scan your computer using antivirus software. Get back to us with any results. Thanks."

Clearly I am back in the same circle again as I have reset my password 3 times with no authentication confirmed and I have filled out the Step #6
form 3 different times and I never get a response back after the initial email that says I will hear back in 24 hours. All 3 times have been over
4 weeks total and I have not heard back.


I have done ALL of the steps they have asked. I tried chat today and they wanted me to do all the same steps again and even disconnected me as I was trying to ask another question.  . Please help me unlock my account as I have done all of the verification steps that they have asked so far.  I'm so sick or trying to get the account verified.

Here are my SRX #'s:
SRX1213422699ID

Thanks, MW
Unable to reset password, due to not being able to access my Aol email account or alternate email.  Unable to answer security question to my account.  Did questionaire and was unsuccessful. 
Why is outlook only showing e-mails for a month or so and removing the rest. Is it going to a different folder that I don't see.
I have an old Xbox Live account which I believe has auto-renew membership ON, and need to turn it OFF.

However I cannot remember the email or password linked to that account. I spoke to Xbox Support a few days back saying they need at least the email or gamer tag so that they can change anything.

Now it was a while back since I have been on that account as I reverted back to my original account. During that time my bank card cancelled and realised auto-renew would still be on. The account is no longer on my console.

I read somewhere that your account would get banned/blocked after an unsuccessful payment (because of cancelled card). Does this mean membership for Xbox Live would stop renewing automatically because it's been banned? For example; if my account was on a 12 month membership, would it still renew automatically every year even though the account would be banned/blocked?

I want an HONEST answer because it's getting me so worried, and I'm reading all sorts of stories all over the Internet about this sort of thing. I seriously don't know what I'm going to do if I can't remember the email, password or gamer tag of the Xbox Live account. If somebody can help me, it would be greatly appreciative.

Thank you.
CAN SOMEONE TELL ME WHATS WRONG PLZ?
