Up until a couple of weeks ago when my wife or I clicked on the outlook icon the email acount came up without signing in, both our names were contained in a box and we could
interchange as we wished. that is now apparently gone and we each have to sign in separatly each time...a waste of time! Can anything be done to get the old system back, or are we missing something?
I'm currently posting this using my friends alternate email.
Thank you for your time.
I have an expired card listed in my account and I cannot replace it because it states that it's attached to existing services. I look and the services it is attached to are all ones I canceled a long time ago.
Below is a screen capture of the issue. I cannot change the payment option because they are canceled. How do I just get these two services and the card ending in 5953 completely removed from my Microsoft account since they are all either canceled or expired? I already signed up for the Xbox Music yearly subscription, so the monthly one in the attached image can safely be removed. I don't see any option to remove the subscriptions myself.
Thanks!
Hi,
I don't check old messages often - only when I need something - and as such not sure exactly when it happened, but suspect during the 'upgrade' to Outlook.
More than 10 years of email is missing on my account. My inbox currently only goes back as far as 2010, and my sent emails as far as 2007.
Is there a backup somewhere? What options do I have in terms of recovery?
I don't even know exactly how much is missing, as I can't remember when the account was created - at least 7 years though...
Cheers,
Nick
Email server recently changed from snt-m.hotmail.com to blu-m.hotmail.com. Other posts listed iPhone as the device for blu-m.hotmail.com when user’s device is Nokia Lumina 521. Plethora of problems have persisted since. Security issues were already addressed.
Task '*** Email address is removed for privacy ***: Folder:Inbox Synchronizing headers.' reported error (0x800CCCF4) : 'An unknown error has occurred. Save any existing work and restart the program.' appeared today. Message repeats to never function. What are the settings for MSN and Outlook 2007? HTTP did not work even though it is usually reliable. https://autodiscover.hotmail.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml does not work either. Preference is to not use the connector.
Calendar required three attempts to install holidays. Each attempt warned the holidays were already installed. Third attempt made the holidays visible in Outlook, but not online. Is there a .ics file in the directory to manually import the dates to one's online calendar?
Using an external email address (say *** Email address is removed for privacy ***) and the outlook.com smtp.live.com SMTP server, authenticating using an outlook.com account (say *** Email address is removed for privacy ***) works fine and yields the usual mixture of email headers in outgoing email:
Return-Path: <*** Email address is removed for privacy ***>
From: *** Email address is removed for privacy ***
Sender: *** Email address is removed for privacy ***
as does Gmail.
Some email software receiving emails like this will reply to *** Email address is removed for privacy *** rather than the external email address, *** Email address is removed for privacy ***.
I have experienced this myself. Of course I want to avoid this.
Outlook.com supports the facility to rename the *** Email address is removed for privacy *** account to *** Email address is removed for privacy ***.
This seemed to offer the option of standardising all three headers as *** Email address is removed for privacy ***.
So I implemented this rename, which itself caused some problems, especially resetting all my send and receive external email accounts to send only, though still listing them as send and receive. I understand from this forum that many users have lost their emails doing the rename. However I keep my email on a local client so that could not happen.
After the rename, I get these headers:
Return-Path: *** Email address is removed for privacy ***
From: *** Email address is removed for privacy ***
Sender: *** Email address is removed for privacy ***
I made up this number rather than printing the one I got, but this hex number is in exactly the same format.
The original address *** Email address is removed for privacy *** does not feature.
Sending to this *** Email address is removed for privacy *** email address gets the reply:
Delivery to the following recipients failed.
Where did this Sender: header come from?
Why is it not *** Email address is removed for privacy *** or at least *** Email address is removed for privacy ***?
Thanks
