Using IE 9 and windows 7 starter. When composing a new email using Bell mail, which is Hotmail, contact names and email address will not come up. Software just searches and searches. This started sometime after recent Windows updates. Was not the case before. No problems with my tablet or notebook running Windows 7 Premium on the same email account.
I am trying to install Windows live software package, and an error meesage "0x80040609" appears, can anyone help? thank you
New Mac Book Pro and Office for Mac 2011. In Office 2010 running in Windows 7, I can right-click to export a folder to a PDF. Is this functionality (even if it takes additional software) available in Office for Mac 2011?

When Windows Live Messenger is officially retired sometime in 2013, what does that mean ?

Will all versions of the Messenger client...

   ...  not be able to Logon ?

 ... not see their Contacts ?

 ... not be able to send and receive text-based IM messages ?

Or does it mean that the software will not be updated after that, but any Accounts still "living in the old Messenger world" will still be able to talk to each other using IM ?

Thanks

Password Incorrect
Enter the password for the
Exchange account "Hotmail"

Each time I enter my new password, the same message field pops up.

The frame behind the Password Incorrect field is for the Software Update.


I have tried running virus software in Normal mode and Safe mode; reinstalled Windows 7 and don't know what to do.  Can't tell if it's a keyboard malfunction or in the software.  Any i-dears?
Hotmail often hangs for a minute. 

I have cleared history, run optimising software and searched the web but no apparent solution. 

I use Mozilla Firefox 64 bit browser and windows 7.  Is there a solution or does one need to use another messanging program?

Is there a way to set an email background to black in Windows Live Mail?  Seems there ought to be since you can set the font to white.  I did this in Windows Mail for sending pictures since pics look better against a black background. If a black background cannot be set in Live Mail, what email software do you recommend for this?

Thanks.

Seems my outlook contacts (operating on a MAC) are very limited -- do not include all of the contacts in my address book.  All of this happened after I loaded a software update.
