Windows Live Mail stuck updating calendar

30. December 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: , , , , ,

Running Windows 7 and Windows Live Mail, for no apparent reason WLM suddenly got stuck, reporting in the bottom right corner, that it is "Updating calendar..."  I have never used the calendar in the 12 months I have been running WLM (I don't even display it) and have never updated it at all.  However, now that WLM is permanently stuck in this updating mode, I can neither send nor receive emails until I shut WLM down and reopen it when I get a brief window of opportunity to perform its normal functions, after which it returns to calendar updating mode and it might as well not be running at all. I tried going to Cotrol Panel/Programs and repair Windows Essentials (this was suggested by someone) but it didn't work.

 

What to do?

 

Pics a no-show in emails

20. December 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: , , , , , , ,

In my Hotmail emails, the pics  do not show but have an x in the upper corner. This is in Hoosier Lottery emails and a few others but not all.

Is there a fix for this? I had this once befor and don't remember how to fix it. Thanks.

I just upgraded from Entourage 2008 to Outlook 2011 running on Lion and there seems to be an important function in Entourage that is not in Outlook. How do I link a new note to an email message? I see where the Notes tab is located in the lower left corner but I don't see how to link the note to an existing email message that I have received in the InBox. This was possible in Entourage. Also I could link a calendar event, task and even link one email message to another although I did not use those functions but really miss the note to email linking option. How can I do that? Thanks

When I clicked People and then view one of my friends’ Profile, the column for Social/Email is missing.

When you clicked the vertical arrow on the top-left corner and then clicked People, you will see a list of people in your contacts list.
Then when you clicked on any one of the contacts in the list from the left, you should see the person's profile picture and his/her contact on the right.
However, out of the many contacts I have, there's only one contact in which I can only see his name and profile picture, but the column for Social/Email/etc. is missing entirely.

What does this mean?

Can’t close Windows Live mail 2011 ???

09. November 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: , , , , , , , ,

I am running Windows 7 64 bit with ALL updates etc etc.

Just recently I installed Windows 7 64 bit (was 32bit) and all seems well except for an odd problem with Windows Live mail 2011.

<PROBLEM> I can open send and receive mails with no problem but when I have finished using Mail I sometimes (80 - 90% of the time) seem to be unable to close the Mail application by clicking simply clicking on the "Close" "Restore Down" or "Minimize" buttons in the top right corner of the Mail window - it just freezes up ??

I can clear it by hitting right mouse button anywhere on the desktop and selecting Refresh and that clears the Mail screen, or by opening Mail again.

Any ideas ??

Thanks

Pictures in my mail box do not open.  All I see are box outlines with a small icon in upper left corner.  Do I have an incompatible program or is there a setting that needs to be changed?

when clicking on the ‘Search This Folder’, Outlook becomes unresponsive

What's up Support!

 

I'm getting complaints from my users when they click on the 'Search This Folder' field (upper right hand corner of main Outlook window)  In Outlook on the Mac to search for email and the SPINNING BALL OF DEATH begins. Outlook then becomes unresponsive forcing the user, at times, to FORCE QUIT Outlook. WHICH I HATE!!!!

I've been able to recreate the problem myself, on their workstations, but with a little patients Outlook eventually becomes responsive.

We're New Yorkers. Thus... no one is patient here!

 

I can't seem to figure out whats causing it.

 

Can someone point us in the right direction?

 

Thanks in advance!
