I use windows live with 4 different accounts and I also use Hotmail for a club which I belong to, but all contacts have now synced since Hotmail went over to Outlook giving other club members access to my personel contacts and of course the opposite way round. Can anyone tell me how to stop this happening absolute nightmare and now has resulted in my privacy being invaded without my consent from what I can see. Thanks Peter
Since yesterday, I have had problems trying to get into my hotmail account.  

I've tried to sign in via Outlook.com / Live / and Signin hotmail links. 


When I sign in - the page is very slow to load and it freezes.  I don't get an error message.


When the page *loads* its incomplete and the format/layout is messed up.   I can't use it or click on it.


I am using Safari via my iMac.  I have cleared my browsing cache, checked the cookies are allowed. 


Safari is working for all other webpages - just not Outlook or Hotmail/ Live.

( Hotmail is still being received okay via my iPhone though but I can't work with it on my phone).


Any helpful suggestions, please?  I would like to have it working again on my Mac.

 
Thanks,
Talei 

Hi All

 

Would someone be able to tell me if the problem of migrating from hotmail to outlook when you claimed the new @outlook.com email first. I can not change/migrate all my hotmail inbox to new @outlook.com. I believe this was a known issue, has it been sorted?

 

Many thanks for any help!

 

I have several Hotmail accounts that I have configured in Outlook 2007 (with the latest version of Communicator) on my home computer. When I'm at home, I check these accounts via Outlook; when I'm at work, I check these account via the Internet. Everything has been working fine until about a week ago. Now, if I check my mail in Outlook on my home computer, those messages are only accessible in Outlook; If I check my mail online, I can only see those messages online. I suspect one of the following:
(1) messages are not being left on the server, so whichever client (e.g. Outlook or web client) downloads a message first, that's the only place the message is accessible or viewable.
(2) Outlook is not syncing properly with my Hotmail account/servers.
I've repaired Outlook 2007 and uninstalled/reinstalled communicator. If I can't get this fixed, I'm probably going to abandon Outlook and Hotmail and move to my Gmail account.
Any and all help is appreciated.
Thanks!

I don't know about anyone else, but in my never very humble opinion not being able to sign out of Outlook is a huge problem and a major flaw. The way it stands now, any browser on any machine where I open my Outlook will be able to go back in to my email without logging in, whether I'm there or not. And none of the things any support person has tried solves the issue. I've already been thru all of it, removing cookies, history, changing settings, different browsers, changing certificates, etc. and still it is impossible to sign out of Outlook in a browser. Does this at work computers with OUtlook 365 and on my home computer. Many people at work have complained about this, but work tech support says that Microsoft claims this is "by design" and will not be fixed.

I know I'm no expert, but nobody should have to jump thru all those hoops just to force my browsers to let me sign out of Outlook. And everybody tells me Microsoft made it this way by design?? WHAT?

FIX THIS, BILL! I'm no expert, but I'm no ordinary dummy user, either. I'm a developer so I can try things without messing up my machine. But nothing I've tried so far has made any difference. When the browser opens, and I go to Outlook, it automatically logs in and lets whomever is sitting at the computer have full access to my email. It does this on any computer where I have previously used a browser to get my email, so anybody else who comes along and uses those computers will also get my email without having to sign in.......because Outlook in a browser won't sign out.

When I do sign out in the browser, the little "busy" thing spins, then it just automatically opens back up to my inbox.


Do you not see this as a major design flaw, Bill?

Hi Leilani,

Obviously it is some problem with the server not able to connect. I have tried umpteen times on clearing the cache to optimise browsing experience but i still receive the same old error while trying to connect to Outlook.com

Sorry, there seems to be a problem with Outlook right now
If you continue to have this problem, please report it to Microsoft.


For Christ sake, I need to access the emails in the soonest time possible. Please get this rectified soon.
I'm not receiving email from my msn.com account in my outlook on my laptop. Worked fine this morning. Sending emails works fine. I can see the incoming emails when I log-in online or when I check my phone. Also, my outlook is receiving emails from my gmail account.  It's just not coming in from my msn account.  I got a temporary server error code 5102 and and a synchronizing folder hierarchy error.  My thinking is that this is a problem with on msn server end.  Is this correct?  And how can I communicate that to msn?
I am having problems with Outlook retrieving messages from hotmail. I have deleted and re-installed outlook connector. I have tried deleting the account and setting it up as a new account. It will send messages but not retrieve messages. I have no problem on mobile devices. I have 4 mailboxes setup in outlook. My company .com email, gmail, hotmail and a comcast.net account, It was working fine until a few weeks ago. Any Ideas. Thanks 

When I sign on to my account and try to access Outlook, I get the following error message:

 

"Sorry, there seems to be a problem with Outlook right now"

 

I need to access my e-mail as soon as possible! Thanks.

I have 2 hotmail accounts.  One is working perfectly well, whereas the other one is NOT downloading/sending the emails at all.  I can log on to the Outlook online and use both accounts perfectly by sending and receiving, whereas it's just NOT working on the PC with the Outlook Connector (latest version) in Outlook version 2007.
