My Windows 8.1 PC and Windows Phone 8 apps that interact with SkyDrive cannot upload or download files.  When I try this I get a few different error messages but I'm sure they're all related.  I recently changed my Microsoft Account password, but this is the only glitch I've encountered.   I also changed my display name from Eric F to Eric J F, but I can't imagine that had any effect.


The apps that are a problem are listed in my MS account settings under Account Settings/Permissions/Apps and Services.  The various app error messages are:

Problem uploading to SkyDrive:  An error occurred while retrieving the resource.  Try again later.

Unable to retrieve folder properties on SkyDrive.

Cannot connect to SkyDrive.


I've tried the following with no success:

Logging in and out and restarting

Uninstalling and reinstalling the apps

Removing the permissions (from above) and reinstalling the apps

Creating new files and/or folders for the apps

Re-syncing the app licenses


Copying. pasting, moving, and deleting to and from SkyDrive works fine, so it's an app-related issue.


Any insights or suggestions are appreciated!



I can not sent / recieve email with Windows 8.1.  It started about 3 days ago.  Also several apps, one is weather, are not updating.  I believe some software updates were automatically installed about the time things stopped working.

I have been unable to find any error message that I think might be related.    But I did get a message about internet connection problem but the internet works find with desk top apps.

I can not connect to "The Store"





       Bonsoir,

       Je voudrais avoir sur mon ordi  skypeclicktocall.ex, mais j'y arrive pas. Quelqu'un peut m'aider? Merci infiniment.
Recently bought a new Retina Mac book and moved (installed) the Office Mac 2011 to the new Mac book. "Encourtage" application was missing and replaced by "Outook", and was asked to purchase Outlook. Have tried to use the Product Key provided but no luck. How can I reinstall the Encourtage without paying extra? Thanks!  Ronnie
I did an update a few days ago.  When I went to the "People" page in the Contact List I could get into the page, but the page erased all my contacts.  I can't even put in new or old contacts.  The only thing on the page is the 4 apps, Facebook, Twitter, etc.  I don't use any of those.  The page also has the 4 apps off to the left of the page and partically cut off.  I can't see anywhere that I can get the page to the other side where they were before.  Ever since the Contact List was changed to the "People" page things have gotten slower with the poor design of the "People" page.  I want my contacts back!
