I originally had my primary alias set to my Yahoo! account, but I would never receive emails through the mail app. My Gmail account worked perfectly, so I assumed that it had something to do with the fact that I rarely even use the Yahoo account, and probably just hadn't remembered the password correctly or something. But when I tried to re-sync it so that I'd actually get emails, it wouldn't let me change anything, so I renamed my primary alias to the Gmail account, assuming that because I actually knew the account information, it would sync properly, and I'd continue getting mail. Instead, the Gmail account stopped working, even though the Yahoo email works fine now that it's only a secondary alias. What am I doing wrong? Do I just need to get Outlook? Because no offense, but I'd rather not add another email to the list.

I'm trying to setup my Hotmail account on my brand new iPad using iOS 6.1.3.

I'm using the Hotmail option to add the account. After adding my Hotmail credentials, Mail, Contacts, Calendar, and Reminders fail to update. When I go back into Settings to double-check thing, and tap the Hotmail account, the Settings app hangs for a bit, then crashes. I try opening Mail again, and it crashes, too. I can access other settings, including the iCloud account settings under Mail. It's just tapping on the Hotmail settings that causes the problem.

This is a several years old account. So I set up a new Outlook.com account, and I'm able to add and use it without a problem. Changing the settings on the working Outlook.com account to use the Hotmail logins causes the crashing again.

The only way to remove the 'stuck' Hotmail account is to factory reset the iPad.

I believe it's something to do with specifically with my old Hotmail account. I have a paid Hotmail account, though I have no idea if that makes a difference.

I called Apple about it. And while they agree it's certainly odd (probably a bug) that the Hotmail account locks things up so badly, they say that due to the fact that I can't reproduce the issue with other Microsoft accounts, that it's an issue with my Hotmail account and that I need to contact Microsoft for assistance.

Thanks

Today, I am not able to sync my Windows Live to my outlook.com e-mail account with the following error:

 

Unable to send or receive messages for the Hotmail account.

I'm having problems receiving emails. for about 3 months I've had many emails that I've been expecting not hit my account. Sometimes they turn up 2 months late after the original sending or not at all! I've checked my Junk, my settings about blocking, about forwarding, filters, rules etc etc and everything in settings looks fine. People ring me up fuming that I haven't replied to 5 emails they've sent that I haven't received. These are the ones that I know about.... Especially as I work freelance, my email address is my work. I've changed my password to see if that helps too..... It's strange because there seems to be no consistency to it, as it's indiscriminately effecting my contacts, new senders and god knows what else. Please help!!!
I can not send e.mails as before!! Every time you ask for verification !! Also I can not send to groups

Should I be concerned about keeping confidential docs in skydrive?

Just got an I phone 4 and can't get hotmail account to work on this phone - any ideas?

 

All my work documents are currently on Skydrive. If they were to disappear, I would be totally screwed. I have free storage right now. I need to know if it ever expires, and if so, what I need to do in order to avoid loss of data.

 

Thank you
