Windows Live Mail FAQ

microsoft account blocked

01. August 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: Microsoft account, support line
I thought my live account was compromised or stolen, but after talking to the support line, I realized that it has been blocked. It isn't a password issue, he said that it may be that i've entered the password in too many times or that it can be spam. I can no longer sign into my xbox account on the website or on my console. I'd like to regain access to my account.

You need to cancel any paid services or Microsoft Points account associated with your Microsoft account? Please Help

I wish to close/delete my microsoft account entirely. I don't use it anymore, so I wish to get rid of it. When attempting to press the "Close account" button within my settings, I receive this message: "You need to cancel any paid services or Microsoft Points account associated with your Microsoft account." When under my subscriptions page, there is only a trial to Office 365 Home Premium(which has expired), and a Prepaid Xbox Live Gold Membership which has been canceled. Please, I want this account deleted ASAP and I am unable to do so.

Primary WLID (Microsoft Account) not retrieving email from server into Outlook.com

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

All has been working fine until about a week ago.  My primary WLID Microsoft account (*** Email address is removed for privacy ***)  is no longer pulling messages from the Comcast server.  I have two other emails and one alias.  The other emails are working fine.  I did log on to Comcast and the emails are still sitting there.  So for about a month now the email was not retrieved by Outlook.com, nor my Windows Phone. 

 

I was told that Microsoft needs to increase the number of devices associated with my account.  I am so frustrated. 

 

Are we unable to send/receive email from the Microsoft account?  This is the only email account that is not working.

 

From Outlook.com:

    

Microsoft account:

Melanie G (*** Email address is removed for privacy ***)
Send and receive
Details
 
Accounts you've added:
Melanie G (*** Email address is removed for privacy ***)
Send and receive
Details
Melanie G (*** Email address is removed for privacy ***)
Send and receive
Details
 
Outlook aliases
Melanie G (*** Email address is removed for privacy ***)
Send and receive
Details

 

Unfortunately, until my Microsoft Account is repaired, I am in a mess.    Of course my Windows Phone 8 does the same thing....retrieves all mail except the primary Microsoft Account (WLID).

I need to remove an alias from a blocked microsoft account MSA

01. August 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: Microsoft account, WP8

 

I have just been through a frustrating 3 months of Windows Phone support - 20 chats, numerous emails with the escalation team, etc.  My MSA, which i use on my Lumia 920 (WP8) was blocked from purchasing and no one could figure out why.  After 3 months, the escalation team came back to tell me that I am using an email address (at my own domain) which uses an "illegal" keyword in the email address.  Even though I have been using this since August 2012, on my WP7 phone, after switching to WP8 phone it became a problem of blocking my app purchases after about 30 days with WP8.

 

My problem:  I have already switched over to a new MSA and everything works great.  However, my preferred outllook email *** Email address is removed for privacy *** is an alias of the old account.  I need to have continued access to the alias and cannot just remove it and wait the 30 days or so for it to become available again. 

 

Question:  Can you help me to release the alias immediately so that I can add the alias to my new MSA?  I can provide you with all hte details and even the WPsupport case# for verification.  I don't want to just add the old account to my new account to access the email as I want to completely rid myself of the old MSA.

 

Thanks in advance!

Lost account info

31. July 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: account info, Microsoft account

I have an employee who created a microsoft account with her work email so she could install her new Office Home and Business 2013.

She was getting error messages every time she would open it regarding activating the product online. After searching this site I seen a suggestion to reinstall the product so I uninstalled, rebooted and started to reinstall.

I am now at the screen to log into the microsoft account. I cannot because the password has been forgotten. I have the reset link sent to email, it gives me this error message every time I click it:

"There's a temporary problem

There's a temporary problem with the service. Please try again. If you continue to get this message, try again later."

I tried creating a new account but I'm assuming this isnt working because the key is linked to the old microsoft account. I'm not sure, but when I enter the key and enter the new account info I'm taken to a screen that says I don't have any microsoft products and to go to the store...

So the account it was installed with before is locked and/or requesting password change doesnt work.

This is a huge pain, if anyone could help me how to get her back working again I would appreciate it.

Trouble with Microsoft account and Windows 8.1 syncing

31. July 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: Microsoft account, SkyDrive, syncing

I have two PC's running Windows 8.1 Preview that are both having these two problems:


1. Aren't syncing their IE11 favorites and favorites sort order.

2. Stuck syncing the same files with Skydrive. Opening the modern Skydrive app shows the same files in the queue have all been "pending" for the last several days.


I reset all trusted devices on my account and then retrusted both PCs and still have these issues, so I then ran the Microsoft Account troubleshooter and it found these problems with the first PC:



I don't know what the first two errors mean, but the third one is probably because I disabled the Desktop personalization syncing.


I then ran the troubleshooter on PC 2 and got this midway through:



I opened the store (which opened normally) and waited several minutes but nothing happened. So I hit Next on the troubleshooter and it finished with these errors:



Again, I don't know what the first two errors mean, but the third one is probably because I disabled the Desktop personalization syncing.

How can I change my Microsoft account alias to my Hotmail email account?

31. July 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: Hotmail email, microsoft, Microsoft account
I have a Yahoo email account set up as my alias; however I have been getting a lot of spam at that email address so I was wanting to switch over all my important accounts to my Hotmail account, including my Microsoft account. I keep receiving an error message along the lines that I cannot switch my alias to a Hotmail.com domain. So I am not sure why this error pops up or why it does but I would like to change my alias.
