Thought I had a solution to this in a recent forum question but it wasn't. I have Windows 7 and Windows Live Essentials and using Windows Live Mail. I want to change my password for signing in to my Windows Live Mail account not Windows Live ID as I
found where that can be changed. I received a suggestion I go to my windows live mail account and properties and then open 'Server' and it would allow me to change my email there but it doesn't as it won't allow me to type anything in the space provided for
email password. Only way I can get anything in that space is check 'remember password box' and my old email password is there (although not in actual word print) and if I retype a new password there it always reverts to my old password even thought I click
apply and then ok at the bottom of that pane.. Another suggestion was I check remember password. Then when I sign in to my Windows Live Mail I am prompted to sign my Windows Live ID which isn't necessary as my email window is open and new mail going in and
I can read it. So that means I am just signed in all the time using my old password again!
Are there any more suggestions out there how to change WLMail password and not the Windows Live ID?
I wanted to change my Windows Live Mail password and went to the help section. I was told how and did it only to find out what that actually changed was my Windows Live ID and did nothing for changing my regular email password as when I signed in with
the new Windows Live ID it still asked for my email password and only way I can get in is using the old password I have had forever. I have looked through all the account information on the Windows Live Mail email site itself and see where I have a password
set but nothing shows in that area nor can I type anything in it.
What is Happening:
Old Hotmail Email Address (That has been hacked) is still linked to my Xbox Live Gamertag / Profile.
The information on the old Hotmail Account has been changed. (Secret Q&A , Alternate Email) and i am unsure of what else he was capable of changing
What i have tried:
I have tried going through the Hotmail Recovery found at https://account.live.com/acsr/ but i have been rejected. It has been a while since I used that account to be honest the only important
things I used it for was my Battle.NET account and Xbox Live (Battle.NET i got switched over thanks to Blizzard Customer Support) And i failed to think of Xbox Live Account because it was already a profile on my Xbox and i have had no need to recover it.
I have supplied the credit card info that it asks for and i still get rejected?
I have tried going on my Xbox and changing the Windows Live ID from there but it asks me for a password on the previously used Windows ID. (don't have it as the hacker changed it)
What I want to Accomplish:
I am hoping to get my Xbox Live Gamertag / Profile switched over to my new Hotmail Email Address. Reasons being i want to make sure i can still have all my paid for content, and this is a First Gen Xbox 360 so it is ready to crater at any given moment.
Is there any way i can change it to a NON-HOTMAIL email address for my Xbox Live? Hotmail seems un-reliable to me and i would like to have everything on ONE email.
Additional:
I have made a few purchases on this Profile.. And it has my Battlefield Multiplayer ID linked to it..
12Months Gold
2000 Points (purchased 2-3 Weeks ago)
Would hate to lose the money i have put into the account.
Will be checking back here quite often so if i have not made sense somewhere or you need more information, please let me know!
Looking forward to your replies.. Thanks in advance!!
