I upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 8 over the weekend.  I was forced to do a PC refresh and re-install Windows 8 a second time in order for it to work on my laptop.  I find now that the PC refresh erased my Contacts from Windows Live Mail that I was using on Windows 7.  I am able to recover the Contacts files from my online backup prior to the upgrade.  But is there a way for me to import them into the People app or at least to open the file to get the info to manually add some of my contacts into people?  I have lost some important email addresses that I did not have stored elsewhere.  They were backed up.....
hi, i can t see my contacts online, they are always offline.

I am using Microsoft Hosted Exchange Online Office365 service for our business email which manages 5 separate domains. 

Each Mailbox user has different (multiple) email addresses setup as Distribution Groups with SendAs permissions from their primary User Email Address.

Using Microsoft Outlook Web App, we can now choose the FROM address.

However in Outlook 2011 for Mac the FROM pop up is hidden.

Configuration settings for the exchange server points to a Microsoft server with auto discovery. There is nothing entered for the Directory Service.

How do we configure Outlook so that the FROM field is visible?
I'm confused on two counts.

Firstly, is there a difference between Group Calendar and Shared Calendar?  I have seen both terms used in my research but am not sure if they really mean the same thing.....?

And secondly, all I want is to be able to sure and view Calendars with my colleagues (of which there are only 3) in Outlook 2011 for Mac.
I've just looked at Exchange Online, Exchange Server and then Office 365 but it I'm not clear about the following:

Do I have to buy Microsoft Exchange AND Office 365 or is Exchange included in 365???

Or is there any other solution for my very simple needs?

Any help much appreciated but this novice who is trying to learn fast!
I was trying to sign in register my user name to my new account with Walgreens.  Couldn't find my name or password so first of all I gave them my e-mail address and requested my user name.  The e-mail came addressed to Mary and I am *** Email address is removed for privacy *** and the user name would not be a name I would ever use.  W@algreens indicated the this was the user name for this e-mail address.
Hello moderators,

Just a few weeks ago my windows live is fixed from everyone appearing offline to me, here's the link:
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windowslive/forum/messenger-people/windows-live-messenger-contacts-appearing-offline/dc19653c-ff6f-4605-aca0-4f3b345b24f6?msgId=d342e3ef-22a5-4259-85e4-d8a01c9a8c04&page=1&tm=1349498838093&lc=18441&auth=1
It was working well for a few days, my friends could chat with me etc until i realised that i appeared offline to my friends. I could see them online, but they can't see me online. This happened suddenly, i did not change or do anything. I asked my friend if they could see me online previously or not. (after you guys helped me with the problem) and he said yes but now, its offline. I later went on asking more of my friends and all of them said i was offline.

Here's what I've tried:

1.)Re-adding: both me and one of my friends
2.)Re-logging in
3.)Checked if my status appears to be online

Reguards, Leslie
Hello, will someone please help me?

I have been using my email address (email 1) for years now, and now i cannot sign into it any more. I've read that this is because i used the email(email 1) as an alias to another email (email 2)? i have now closed the email (email 2) but it tells me i have to wait 270 days until it gets deleted permanently. after these 270 days, only then, i can recreate my account (email 1).

i really don't wish to make a new email because i have signed up to many websites for newsletters, updates, etc.. also, i don't fancy changing every account i have online to my new email as this is too time consuming.. 

Is there a way to delete my email (email 1) account permanently and immediately?
I know it's a big ask, but is there also a way of transferring all my old emails to this new, recreated account?

Many Thanks!
How can I delete a message stored on the outbox? Every time I get online the Outlook tryes to send it and I just want to delete it!
The question is in the title. I was told to come here by the MS Online Safety Team.
用Window Login MSN後只看到FB朋友同幾個朋友(應該有好多朋友online才是),
但只有在家用已install 的MSN program 是正常的...
之前用Window Login MSN都沒問題的, 現在就看不見好多朋友online, 係咪有error?
