Windows Live Mail FAQ

Xbox security

07. August 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: Microsoft account, security information
Hey there all,

I went to log onto my Xbox today and it wants from me security information on my Microsoft account, not enabling me to go onto my profile and check the information. I have a Microsoft account, however the username and password I put into the boxes is not correct, making me think that it is asking for parental information instead of my personal account information. It won't let me recover the username and password as it wants an answer to a security question that I do not know the answer for. 

Any help would be appreciated.

outlook.com connects email with incorrect facebook account

07. August 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: Facebook, microsoft, Microsoft account

A contact of mine keeps getting linked with another Facebook contact. I don't have them linked, but I continually see the Facebook picture when referencing the Microsoft account contact. It almost seems that Microsoft incorrectly got the idea that they are the same person and now is forcing that on users of Outlook.com who have that contact.

 

Can anything be done about this?

account blocked and unable to access other account to verify. Unable to use xbox online beacause of this

07. August 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: Microsoft account, Xbox
I tried to access my xbox live profile and i was unable to as it said that there was something wrong with my microsoft account with the code 8015D02E on the xbox. i tired to log into my account on outlook.com but i got the message 'There looks like someone might be using your acccount' so i tried to verify that it was might account but i do not remember the password to my other account as i havnt used it for a few years. DO NOT ask me to fill out another questionnaire as i have filled out a couple now and i keep getting rejected. problem is i have not used this hotmail account for some time and i do not recall using it to send any emails or create any folders so i can not answer that question on the questionnaire. the only reason that i still have this account is so that i can play online on my xbox with it. is there any chance i can change the account that i use my xbox account on? i dont see why i have to pay for my xbox live account if i am unable to play on it.

Re-establish Email in My Microsoft Account.

07. August 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: Microsoft account

A few years ago, my ATT/Yahoo email account was the one associated with my Microsoft account.  Back then it was called Hotmail.com and not Outlook.com.  All of the emails sent to me at *** Email address is removed for privacy *** were taken from the server, while leaving a copy there, and delivered to my Hotmail account.  I could always count on their being there in case I deleted one from my ATT/Yahoo account accidentally.  My Calendars and Contacts were in sync.  I connected to my Hotmail account with the Outlook 2003 program and could get the email right on my computer.

 

Everything was working great until April of 2012 when I changed the password to my ATT/Yahoo account.  My Hotmail account could no longer access my ATT/Yahoo email.  I put a bandaid on the situation by just ADDING my ATT/Yahoo account to my Microsoft Hotmail account.  A week ago (7/30/13), that bandaid fell off for some reason and Outlook.com could no longer connect to the ATT/Yahoo server like it used to to collect my email.  Not surprisingly, Outlook 2003 gets no new emails when it connects to my Outlook.com account.

 

So it is pretty clear what I need to do.  I need to re-establish that original connection between my ATT/Yahoo account and my Microsoft/Outlook.com account.  The thing is I don't know how to do it.  Can someone PLEASE help me?

Cannot close Microsoft account – You need to cancel any paid services or Microsoft Points account associated with your Microsoft account.

Getting this when trying to close account (which I just created a few hours ago). You need to cancel any paid services or Microsoft Points account associated with your Microsoft account. Trying to close it because it somehow created a dummy Xbox Live account, which I cant remove/delete. There are no paid services, no Microsoft points, nothing is associated. How the **** do I close the account? Unique ID **removed by moderator**

I cannot access my hotmail account. *** Email address is removed for privacy ***
I've tried all passwords and questions but keeps coming up with 'The Microsoft account is incorrect. Please try again.' When I try to Create a new account with the same email it says the email address is in use and says something about the domain of hotmail not working or something.
I'm not to sure if this a fault on Microsofts point or hotmail but I believe now they are one of the same thing!
I majorly need help with this!! It causing much distress and I have tried various of ways to try get this matter resolved but nothing! 
Help help please, anyone!!

Discontinued hotmail account

06. August 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: hotmail, Microsoft account

Yesterday morning I checked e-mails using my tablet. Not receiving the e-mail I was looking for I rechecked approximately 4 hours later and received the following message, “This Microsoft account doesn't exist. Enter a different e-mail address or get a new account”. At first I thought this was due to misspelled address or password but after several tries the same message is received. Fortunately the e-mail address works on my PC and I can check e-mails there.

Its been suggested that I be proactive and sent up another e-mail account such as g-mail, for if and when this happens on my PC. That leaves two questions,

1: can my current hotmail account be set up to forward received e-mails to a g-mail account much like automatic call forwarding?

2: can the hotmail contact list be cut and pasted into a g-mail account?

 

Regards, wps
