Windows Live Mail FAQ

My hotmail account has been hacked and I really need assistance urgently!

06. September 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: microsoft, Microsoft account
I created this new outlook account because my old hotmail account (my***@hotmail.com) has been hacked since three days ago and now I can't open the account. When I tried to login three days ago, Microsoft told me that someone might have used the account, so I either have to enter the code in alternative e-mail or fill in a questionnaire. But I noticed that the alternative email, and the security question have been changed by the hacker. So, I  tried to fill in the account recovery questionnaire to retrieve my account back but until today there's no response from Microsoft. Suddenly the password has been changed and it seems that Microsoft has given the access for this account to the hacker. It seems that my answers are not good enough because the hacker has changed the security question, and I rarely use this account to send emails to others in the past few months, so I can't really recall the exact title of the recent message that I sent out using this e-mail. I've also called the support team yesterday (ref no: 1216250261) and I was told that I will receive an e-mail on how to get my account back but until now I haven't received it.

Every time I set up an account online or do online shopping, I use this account. I also use it to create facebook, to connect with old schools, to do online shopping, to attach my work files to work from home, for my school projects and many other things for 14 years!!! I have this account since I started my college. I am desperate right now, because this account contains lots of my personal information, bank account details and work related files and I am now afraid that the hacker will use this info :(. I tried my best to change all the accounts which has link to this e-mail I can think of, but I am not sure if there are others that I can't remember. I still have some of e-mails for this account in my laptop which uses Windows 8 and has linked to the microsoft account because I has been synchonize with hotmail when I use my laptop last month to check e-mail but I mostly check my e-mail with my iPad or desktop. I can still access my laptop with my Microsoft account password but I cant download new e-mails and I can't access my skydrive. I remember that I have work related files in my skydrive :(.  I really really need help to get this account back.  Please don't tell me the link for account recovery again as I have tried to request three times and still no response. However, I can give you a lot more other verifications that I'm the real owner of this account. I am so desperate now as the hacker owns my account while I'm, the legitimate account holder, worried of ID theft and misuse of my personal information. PLEASE could someone help me? I'm really worried and desperate :(:(

I am trying to complete age verification for my account to enable setup of of a child's account.  I was charged 10 times to my credit card in duplicate, but my account is still unable to verify age with the message...

"We're unable to complete your request. Microsoft account is experiencing technical problems. Please try later"

This NEEDS to be resolved.

It looks like someone else might be using your account

Hi 

My wife is tying so hard to get her email back but seems to be in some continuous loop.  For some random reason Outlook asked her to enter a password even though she has been using this account daily for around 5 years.  I am not sure if she entered an incorrect password or what but her account is now locked.  Every time we reset her password a message appears saying "it looks like someone else is using your account" and asks for a security code.  When we click on this link and request the code to be sent to the alternative email nothing happens.  We have checked any spam or junk in boxes but no luck the code is simply not there.

If we click through and try and fill in the on line verification form all that happens is I get and email saying

"We recently received a request to recover your Microsoft account *** Email address is removed for privacy ***. Unfortunately, we were unable to verify your ownership of this account using the information you provided. Microsoft takes the security and privacy of your personal information very seriously, and we are committed to protecting the personal information of customers. We have taken the additional step of blocking your account *** Email address is removed for privacy *** until we can verify you as the account owner. This will prevent any further use of the account, and protect you from any possible malicious activity.

Please submit a new account verification form"


If I try and fill it in again I just get the same message, I have tried to call and live chat but no one can help.


Does anyone know how my wife can unblock her account? She needs to access her emails.


Thanks

Why did I receive 2 differnt code numbers for my microsoft and outlook accounts?

05. September 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: code numbers, Microsoft account, phone number

I updated the security in my Microsoft account.  The first time I was directed to Outlook and  I promptly received  a code by phone.

  Then I signed in again and  was asked again for a phone number for my Microsoft account.  I entered my phone number and  I  promptly received a DIFFERENT code . 

    Does Outlook,  Skydrive etc. all have different code numbers???

Microsoft Account Sign-In

09/05/2013 -When I sign on to my Microsoft Account the email ID drop down box has an erroneous email address listed. It is not an alias. How do I remove the erroneous email ID from the drop down box. I tried highlighting it and then hitting the "Delete" key but that didn't work. I tried highlighting it and hitting the "Backspace" button and that didn't work either. I'd like the erroneous email address removed.

That Microsoft account does not exist?

04. September 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: Microsoft account
Hey,
i have tried to login my Microsoft account after awhile (probably been a year since i last logged in) but it says that i does not exist. I really have to access that account. 
I have read some other topics and you suggested to make the same account again, but @windowslive.com domain is not in the dropbox so i cannot choose it. 
Any other suggestions?
HELP PLEASE

Problems setting up Microsoft account on a Nokia lumina phone.

04. September 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: Microsoft account, nokia, NOKIA Lumia
I have tried to set up a Microsoft account on my new Nokia Lumia phone in order to download apps etc.  in setting up I must have made some mistake as it does not work properly and asks me to get my parents permission!  As I am 36 years old, this seems excessive protection!   How can I reset the original account or set up a new account which the phone will accept and not consistently refer me back to this protection issue.  Thanks.

This account can't be used to access Outlook.com. I keep getting this error message "You're currently signed in with an Office 365 email account, which can't be used with Outlook.com. Please click here to sign out of your Office 365 account, then use another Microsoft account to sign in to Outlook.com (for example, your hotmail.com, live.com, or msn.com account).

Windows Phone 8 DOESNT SYNC HOTMAIL

04. September 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: Mail accounts, Microsoft account
Since 2 days my Microsoft account doesn't sync my mail on my phone. Interestingly  I can sent mails from my phone, but I don´t receive any on my phone. I did not change settings it just happened out of the blue. Other mail accounts (gmail etc.) work fine.
I did a reset but still can't sync. Tried to set up a second hotmail account but that won't work neither. 
My phone is a Nokia 620, i got it 2 weeks ago, it used to work fine.

I went to the shop were I got the phone, they reinstalled the software, and gave me a new chip, but the problem is still the same. 

It shows the message cannot connect to dub-m.hotmail.com  ERROR 80072ee2

HELP PLEASE!
