I am unable to get Windows Live Mail 2011 to go online. Continually get message "working offline" and all attempts to go online fail. have tried all the recommended repairs to system shown

I have a small laptop running Windows7 Starter but Windows Live Mail is not working properly after a series of three critical updates. I could possibly use System Restore to get me back to an earlier system that worked, (haven't tried yet) but what would happen about those system updates. Would Windows proceed to install them all again and perhaps recreate the same problem???

 

Or is there a better option for tackling this problem?

Altho I have been using windows live mail successfully for a couple yrs with my Win 7 computer, I cannot email a web page thru the windows live mail software. When I right click on the web page and then click on the "email with windows live'' box, I am asked to sign in to my microsoft outlook acct. which I don't have. I have tried to sign in with my windows live ID and PW but that does not work. However, I was able to sign into this microsoft community account using my windows live ID and PW. Why?

Any help would be appreciated.

I am using Windows 7 with Windows Live Essentials. My POP3 email client has been WLM for years; (current version: WLM 2011). It has worked  flawlessly until a few days ago. I have 3 email accounts, all with Comcast.net. I can receive my email from Comcast's web client, but not when I download my messages to WLM. I get the following error message:

Unable to send or receive messages for the STEVEN account. An incorrect password was entered. The next time you send or receive messages, you'll be asked to enter your user name and password for this account.

Server Error: 0x800CCC90
Server Response: -ERR invalid username/password
Server: 'mail.comcast.net'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC92
Protocol: POP3
Port: 110
Secure(SSL): No


I have checked and re-checked my email and port settings, and they are correct---the same for all 3 accounts. There are no drafts sitting in the outgoing mailbox. I use the latest version of Firefox (v.23) and Avast anti-virus. I have turned off my anti-virus and Windows Firewall, but the problem persists. I've uninstalled and re-installed Live Essentials, but that doesn't help. I'm at my wits end. Please help.

Windows Live Mail (WLM) receives POP3 mail on only 2 of my 3 Comcast.net accounts
I like to sort my emails by date received.  I just reinstalled Windows 7 and Live Mail on my computer to clean up the clutter of background processes that was bogging my machine down.  Live mail does not allow sorting by date.  It now groups into conversations based upon the subject line.  This is not sastisfactory for me.  How can I get a straight date sort?
Hello.

I got a hotmail.com email address and I use Windows Live Mail (Version 2011 (Build 15.4.3555.0308)) which I believe is the latest and www.outlook.dk and the calendar function is not working very well.

With Windows Live Mail there is no way to import/subscribe/remove .ics so I open my browser and login to calendar.live.com/calendar/calendar.aspx  and then click import and then subscribe where I add the .ics link and calendar name.



I click "subscribe" and it seems like it was a success and the calendar page shows, but nothing in the calendar has changed. 
Then I click the little wheel (right upper corner) and click on "settings", then I click on my newly added calendar and I see there's an error message.



Translated from Danish the messages say:
Latest update: "This calendar has not yet been updated."
Error: "This calendar was not updated due to a problem with the publisher's file. We will try to update it again later."

I have successfully subscribed with the exact same link using Google's Gmail and with a desktop gadget named Windows Live Calender Gadget.
So the link is working.

I wish to subscribe to following .ics link, but it just won't work.
https://services.tamigo.com/Calendar/56xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/Calendar.ics
NB. Note I have exchanged some unique signs with "x" in this example.

I've also tried removing the "s", so it just starts with "http://" but it still won't work.

Please help, I'd really like to have an updated calendar using Windows Live Mail.

Thanks!
Fred

I cant access my email application on my windows 7 computer. I am using windows live mail and what is happening each time I'll access the application is that a small window will show for messages that are on progress or being executed or to make it short, if you're on the application itself and you will click the SEND/RECEIVE button, that window is just stuck on it. I did reboot computer and I didn't do anything at all on my PC so I  don't know what is going on. I need to retrieve all my contacts back.  Please send a reply.  Thanks 
For that matter, what about my Windows Live Mail 2011? 

I always used Hotmail (now Outlook as of a few months ago) because I could access it with my Windows Live ID from any computer.   I always believed I could not access the Outlook 2010 and the cool calendars, etc  from the Microsoft suite from other computers so I really never activated it. 

Are they all the same?  Is it a matter of preference over which has the coolest tools?

I use SkyDrive extensively to store my files in the cloud but don't understand the connection with Outlook other than I can access it from the Hotmail/Outlook.com email page.

So, is it all the same more or less?
