Hi,

I have been trying to change my xbox gamertag to a different Microsoft account. And it keeps giving me the error 80154042.
I do not have the account signed in on any other device. And i have waited more then 30 days also the new Microsoft account doensn't have another gamertag on it.
I have a service request number 1209758127 from Xbox customer service.

How can i get back my e-mail account? I tried to restore it but i always get this (this text is translated from swedish with google translate):
We recently received a request to restore Microsoft account *** Email address is removed for privacy ***. Unfortunately, our automated system determined that the information you provided is not sufficient to verify that it is you who is the holder of this account. Our customers security and privacy are important to Microsoft, and it is imperative for us to do our best to protect your personal information. We have taken further action and blocked your account until we can verify that you are the proprietor. This prevents the account can be used again and protect you from malicious activity on the account.

I get that everytime i never send e-mails on this account so i cant fill in enough information to veritfy!
What should i do becuse i really want this i account back its worth alot of money since my Battle.net account is worth alot of money!

sign-in is blocked

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

I am trying to login to my Skydrive account and I cannot.  When I enter my username and password at login.live.com, I get "Sign-in is blocked" on the screen.  It also says:

"Someone entered the wrong password too many times.
If you signed up for this account through an organization, you might not be able to use it yet."

 

I have tried the password reset questionnaire by following the "Reset your passord" link, but I didn't receive a response.  The option for texting to my phone won't work for me because an outdated phone number has been stored on my account. I can't remember any security question either.

 

I need to access the valuable info I have stored on my Skydrive and you folks are my last resort!  The microsoft account in question is  *** Email address is removed for privacy ***  I am using a colleague's Microsoft account to be able to even post on this forum.

 

Please help!

Thanks.

I can't login to my outlook.com account. I have already tried creating a new password several time to login, and tried to have a one use code sent to my phone to login, but nothing was ever sent. In order to even post this inquiry, I had to create a new account.

This is the message I receive when trying to login:
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).

I have 2 school emails linked to this account (Washington State University and University of Washington)

I am entering Grad School in 1 month and DESPERATELY need help, since I have very important emails and documents being sent to me that will determine my admittance.

How to sync contacts between Microsoft Account (SkyDrive etc) and Office 365

05. August 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: Microsoft account, SkyDrive
Is there any way to easily sync contacts between my Office 365 account, and my Microsoft account?

My Microsoft Account is linked to my Facebook account, so within SkyDrive etc I do see contacts from there, and also from Skype, but I don't see all of the contacts from my Office 365 account.

When i'm in Windows 8 it's fine I see all of my contacts from both accounts in the people app for example (Because they are both added to the People App), but when I visit skydrive.live.com and then goto the people section, I don't see the contacts from Office 365 at the moment.

outlook.com won’t recieve emails

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

Last week, out of nowhere, my outlook.com account stopped receiving emails. Now under email settings, it says that I can only send emails from this account, and that if I want to change it I have to: "To send and receive email from this address, please add this address to Outlook." Only when I go to my Microsoft account that email is already listed, and has no heading under which I can change the email to both send and receive. I hadn't changed any settings, or done anything to my computer. This problem just came appeared last week, and now after spending three hours searching through every forum and setting on my account, I cannot see any way to fix this. I called customer support and they said this was the only avenue for receiving support with outlook.com. If I could get some help that would be great, as I really need to receive emails for work.


Thanks,

Zachary

Error when trying to log in to an old account.

05. August 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: Dear Microsoft Community, email account, instagram, Microsoft account, reset password email
Dear Microsoft Community,

My SO has been locked out of Instagram and her reset password email was sent to an old Hotmail account. When trying to log into said Hotmail account, it says "That Microsoft account does not exist.". We have tried to reset password on that account but due to it being non-existent, it didn't work. I red somewhere that after inactivity of 365 days, a Hotmail account would be deleted. Is there a way to retrieve that email?

Thinking that if it was deleted and the email account was sent back into the system (For re-use I assume), I then tried to create a new email using the same account name. I then got this error saying "This email address is part of a reserved domain such as live.com, hotmail.com, or msn.com. Please enter a different email address.".

I can't reset the email of the Instagram account without logging in and when looking for help there they told me to contact Microsoft.

Is there any solution to this problem?

Thank you.
Danny.
